shut up, that it worked for you doesn't mean it will work for others just shut up

First of all. You need to learn to respect people's opinion. Its a sign of maturity. Moreover, I said, I was speaking from my personal experience, which could be difference from yours. Moreover, if you haven't been to Europe, you have no knowledge about life in Europe. Just remain quiet and let people who have first hand information enlighten you.

I will reiterate my stand, stop discouraging people from going to a country you haven't been to.

No offence, no quarrel. Peace ✌

Thank you so much for this. I'm also into Tech, UI/UX specifically and even under my 2yrs experience, I would've gotten a job for a company based in Berlin as an intern but I was required to be on site. So many DMS to companies on LinkedIn that I could've gotten jobs from but most of them only hire within the EU.

My intention now is to travel through study route by doing a Masters Degree in design, saw one school in Estonia already for 3900 Euros. I just need to work more harder to raise the funds. I'm sure it will happen. Estonia is also my choice because I heard and read it's a big IT hub in Europe.
But how many yrs of experience do you have?

IT is in high demand in Europe, infact, IT earns more than medical fields here in the UK. But the truth is that, just a few companies will be ready to employ you directly from Nigeria, even if its going to be a remote job, you are expected to be within the EU or UK as the case maybe. Because at certain times, maybe once in 2 months, your physical presence will be needed.

Way forward. Sincerely, I don't know much about Estonia. I don't. But with 3900 Euros, why not consider the UK, maybe u can save a little more for same study route. Study isn't that expensive in the UK, most especially if you are single, there are schools which accept 14,000 pounds, thats like 7.2m, why not try those means. And u can switch once u get here. In as much as u are good in what you do.

You will be glad you did.

Money is not everything in Life I don't expect alot to understand that statement. As for me God can take that money but just give me peace of mind! Money is just a paper printed by machine created by human being!!! If you're doing good in Nigeria be a source of inspiration to others do one or two things in your community. Our country can be great we just need to change our mindset and how we think!!

If money was a problem, majority of those who left Naija won't. With an average salary of 500k, working remotely from home, driving a good car and living in a comfortable apartment. I shouldn't have contemplating traveling. But like I said, the moment your needs move from what to eat, what to spend and what to wear. You will understand that Naija cannot give you any other thing, most especially if you are not into looting public funds.

Emeraldfynest:
Is it a Tech Skill? And which country in Europe?

Yes. I am into Tech, but apart from being in tech in naija, there are boundless opportunities here to even learn.

I am going to use my case as an example, I got to the UK, I have to go for a particular course, I paid 2200 pounds for the course, at completion, I got 3 offers, the least pay is 55k pounds aside benefit per annum.
If I was in naija, where will I be able to raise 2200 pounds, where will I be able to get such jobs.

Nigerians are doing well here, of course, the lazy ones are also complaining. When I got to the UK, the first Job I got, a young Nigerian (36 years) is the operation manager for one of the biggest sport company in the world.

My advice again, if you are young, opened minded, ready to learn and can afford traveling legitimately to Europe, pls do. If you are smart and good in what you do, Europe has 1 million and 1 opportunities for you to flourish. Don't mind those telling you to set up business in Nigeria, I did and my hands got burnt.

Babaelemu:
Lol it might be difficult in "6 months" you come even put time frame. So after 6 months you go don dey make am? You no dey hear stories for YouTube, Facebook, Ajazeera, about life for abroad? You never read stories of people wey still dey struggle after 11 years?? You never see for News beggers in New York street? You never see for inside News people wey dey sleep inside car wey no fit afford Rent? My 2 cent make I no lie regardless life is overall good there but don't expect too much and don't think it all rosey over there before you embark on your journey if you want to. As you dey go live your mama, papa, sisters, brothers you fit no come back meet them alive, you fit no come back after 10, 12 years or more, if you come back after so many years some of your friends wey no go anywhere still fit better pass you. It is possible after your return deep down you'll be filled with gilt asking yourself why did you leave home in the first place. Lastly remember say Old ago go come. This journey just dey too stressful and mentally detraining MAKE WE MAKE NIGERIA GREAT!!

I am speaking from my own experience, 6 months is enough to stabilise when u move to Europe legitimately like I did, with a skill, certificate and hardworking. You will be fine in max 6 months.

Stop discouraging people from going to a country you have never been to, I have been in Nigeria, I have been in Europe. I know what I am saying.

OGHENAOGIE:
so that means every Nigerian should go to only UK be that na since na English Dem de speak... Abi how u see am... Cos how many country for Europe get English as official language mind pple still write English test to get into uk self

I am not stopping you from going to a country where you can't get a job because of language barrier. Its your choice. Peace✌

OGHENAOGIE:
so it's now a bad country interesting

I didn't say it is a bad country, but it is obvious you don't really know about country, for God's sake, Italian is the official language in Italy, what is a Nigerian who can't speak Italian doing there, thats the first challenge you will face in Italy, because, no one will give you a job, when this happens you start shouting that you are suffering in Europe.

OGHENAOGIE:
Italy that's top five football country in Europe Third world...hmmm

Italy of all country. So because Italy is top five football country, does that mean that it is a good country?

Babaelemu:
Your expectations go SHOCK you!! Make una no dey sell dreams wey dey far from reality!! I'm not against traveling for opportunities but do so with proper planning and expect the unexpected expect a long walk to success and have it in mind you may make it or not because in the end future is not guarantee wherever you're in the World! There are people in America or in the UK citizens who doesn't have 200 dollars in their account

Where una dey get this una statistics from now, 200 dollars is what someone can make in a day. Make una no dey lie now, for the fact that these guys can't dash 200 dollars doesn't mean they don't have it. If I may ask, did u check his account statement to know he doesn't have 200 dollars?

To whom it may concern, if you have the legal means to leave Naija, pls do, it might be difficult settling down in the first 6 months, but sincerely, you will be fine afterwards. Try it and even if you are not fine, you still have your naija passport, you can go back. Don't allow people who don't have international passport deceive you.

maestroferddi:
Well stated...

Life is about drive, purpose and fulfilment...

Someone else's finishing time might be another's starting time...

It is ridiculous criticising travelling overseas when the statistics are self-evident...

About 7 in 10 business leaders and top political leaders have spent some years overseas...

What does that tell you?

Apt and very correct, the best of the organisation in Nigeria will also prefer to employ someone who studied abroad. That speaks volume. If na this abroad wey we dey o, I don't regret spending over 8m to move my family down.

richie240:
Na ignorance dey make ppl dey japa without any guarantee of a standby job.

With proper vision, dt 2-3 million wey u use travel, if u take am do better biznaze here for naija, na sure odds say ur life nor fit worse reach as e be now.

Niqqa (even) be bragging about trees: "oya, show dem d trees, nor be nigerian trees".
I surprise say d 'european trees' nor vomit Euros for u.

The day you have that 3 million, you will understand that business isn't about the capital, government policies, infrastructure and amenities plays a major role. Abroad is not easy, but not comparable to Naija, I am not referring to those who took Sahara desert o. And moreover, those of us who migrated didn't migrate because we were trying to escape poverty, we wanted a stable and working system, we wanted safety, because we weren't poor in naija.

The day your need is no longer what to eat and what to wear, you will discover that Nigeria isn't a place to be.

UyaiIncomparabl:
Sad.

Can you reach out to her or even look out for her sometime soon? Just saying because I don’t think I can forget people who were there for and with me in my gloomiest days regardless of who they were or their positions in my life. Help her out if you can. Prayers aren’t enough.

Thank you so much. For everytime I look at the turn of events, I feel really sad. I will definitely reach out to her, but I don't want my reaching out to her to weigh her down, so I am just waiting for the best of time. And then, we are miles apart now.
DAO, you could have waited just a little longer, just a little longer 😪😪😪. He still dey pain me. I hate to see people struggle and not enjoy what they struggled for 😪😪😪😪😪😪😪

I saw her and pity her. She was a shadow of herself, how did things change in just 1 year. She looked broke and unkempt, searched for her account details. Couldn't find it again, could have rendered my little help. Just few months she left me, God gave me my big break, I wished she waited a little while, we were together in the rough time, she left just at the eve of our breakthrough as struggling guys. I remained grateful to God, I had to pray for her. So emotional to me. But I wish her well in life.

Please who has the link to University of Sunderland whatsapp group? I will so much appreciate it.

No serious and competent academic writer will accept ₦3 per word. I won't even take ₦10 per word. Academic writing na beans? But what do I know?

Dont mind the OP. I cant even take 30 naira a word, cos my 1k words goes for at least 60k, depending on the assessments. This oga is offering 3 naira pee word. Expect the copy and paste experts in your dm.

I did my masters, got married, had a baby girl, relocated out of Naija, that one no mean say he go better for Buhari

Hello house. Visa came a few days ago. Am I supposed to get a BRP mail afterwards?

seglius:

kbpresh:
Was it the school that rejected or the bank?

Bank...

synero74:
Hi guys. I am the one schooling but can i use my husband's account for the form A.

Pls attach marriage certificate and a letter of authorisation instructing d bank to debit him in your favour. I was first rejected until I attached this 2 documents.

Agbekehorla:
Which Tls location pls?

Abj. I got a collection mail for all of us this afternoon.

chydon:
Good morning gurus. Please when paying for priority services , does payment by main applicant cover for dépendants or do I have to pay priority for each dependant.

I was told it covers for all applicants and we did biometrics last week Tuesday. MA is priority, but decision had been made for all the other 2 family members as at yesterday. So I think yes...

Pls today is my 9th day of biometrics, 7th working days (priority option). But my tracker still remains at dmc, although decision had been made. Do I need to be worried?

Abbe777:
Please when you upgraded to priority, did your appointment date change or it remained same date.
Also when someone upgrades, will the person need to pay for assisted service again?

No. My appointment remained the same. They are 2 different services. If you want your documents to be uploaded for you, you add the cost (11k plus) to it. Priority doesn't cover for assisted service, neither does it cover for dhl delivery.

Any 23rd Abj tls priority who has gotten a decision?

PrudentT:
Hello duchess,
Thank you for all you do on this platform.
Please, I want to know if one can change from standard to priority before biometrics is done.

Bio is 1st of September
School resumes by 19th.
Thank you

Yea. Very possible. That was what I did.

Bosslady25:
Hello everyone, I learnt on a group that it’s the main applicant that signs and upload the 1st and 3rd page of the home office consent form.
Someone just told me now that I’m also supposed to sign and upload it too, that failure to do such can affect visa outcome.
I did biometrics today. Please, is it possible to send the forms to the home office?

I think u can only sign the 3rd page if its a joint account. If not, the MA alone should. Let's wait for others input..

paradigmshift:
Nice goal 2-2.

Harland nice one

Pls can u share the link

lightofjoy:
Pls is it possible that the MA do priority service while dependants do normal service.

Prioriry is only for MA and nor for dependants.

Congrats and may the land favour u. Pls if i may ask... I assume you did priority for the MA, was decision for dependant made within the 5 days period of the MA as well. I will be glad to get your response...

WetinUGain:
The date will change. Is it possible to amend date after paying priority.

The date will not change except you change it. I did the same. I was able to book priority but my date remained the same.
