@Op with only 5million EUR just 2.6 billion naira you can relocate with your family comfortably to Germany.
Start saving today.

No one will bother relocating if he has that much

ZIINI:
Very cheap
US is $900k over #360m of our currency

if it's that cheap, why u never get the citizenship then.

cucumbar:
you don’t know what you are saying. Some dey collect as much as 200m.

Maybe throughout their career.

Princedapace:
Yes. They have to protect their barracks... facilities are there.

And that's why guns have to be pointed at the motorists?

I've been doing some random searches into ielts long before my exam, but real preparation only began two weeks to the examination. It was two weeks of intensive study, within which I went through every available resource on IELTSLiz and completed more than 10 mock examinations from ieltsonlinetests

Thanks boss. This was helpful.

Churchilleze2:
If you write the English exam in Nigeria is it recognizable outside the country since most countries don't recognize Nigeria as English speaking country

it is.

Semtu:
Hey guys, I passed my IELTS with an overall band score of 8.0 (L-8.5, R-8.5, W-7.0, S-7.0).. Thank you all so much, I went through various advices on this thread and it really helped me. I prepared only with 'IELTSLiz' and took practice questions from 'Ieltsonline'. I was actually expecting a higher band score than this but I still thank God all the same

Congrats chief. How long did your preparation take?

Hello Jiren01

To check if an institution is a DLI (designated learning institution) and eligible for PGWP(post graduate work permit), please check this list.

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/prepare/designated-learning-institutions-list.html

All the best

Thank you so much. I appreciate this.

I heard from a source Masters in some universities does not qualify you for a Post Graduate Study Work Permit. Does a Masters degree from the following universities, including Saskatoon, Manitoba, Winnipeg, Northern British Columbia, New foundland, Regina, or Royal, qualify you for a PGWP following your PG Study. I needed to ask so as to know what I'm getting myself into.

owolabia:
This is serious now

what's the implication of this?

operationmoses:
You were born and brought up with a silver spoon and you are looking for a job all this nairaland nuisance self

Read that section of his post again; this time, slowly.

mokkalu1:
First job was a voluntary job, but I earned a reward I can't quantify. It also paved the way for a second job, where I was paid 5k daily. The first was in the University I graduated from and the second was in a research institute. Funny thing is, I did both jobs before NYSC. Actually, I did both before receiving my statement of results. I lost interest in academic so I'm freelancing and running a few small businesses.

You mean you ditched a graduate assistant position for freelancing?

motionarena:
lol we will all get there soon.

Funny enough I plan on leaving the job soon am currently a remote escalation manager for Microsoft 365

But its time move to other things

Very Impressive.

Foolishbuhari:
That's the way Bro. My mopol guys sef na shoot at sight order for anybody when near man illegally without warrant.

My boy's younger brother came back from abroad before the lock down and just for fear of those uniformed kidnappers called SARS at the benin- ore- asaba road, I advised he took a flight to asaba where I picked him and drove him down to the east. Useless country!

Very useless country. Please how much do you hire your mobile escorts?

Sysdatek:
Clowns are the reason I hire mopol escorts

Anytime I travel with my suv

I dont like time wastage

To be young and rich is a crime in nigeria

How much do you hire your mopol escorts?

Slawormir:
Damnnnnn niggarrr
Isoright
Show this work some respect...stop calling it yahoo
Say bombing, street or huzzle
My niggarrrrz should plead guilty

Next time always change your internet protocol from static to dynamic

A static Ip can be used to trace your country and city or rather longitudinal and latitudinal points

If you like, change to Uranus and tropic of Cancer; it's only a matter of time before you get caught.

bizme:
You are very correct.

I got into pharmaceutical research in Europe years ago without writing any licensing exams. I still visit Europe every now and then without any such licensing exams. I have worked and lived in Europe for years working in an area of pharmaceutical research without any such licensing exams. The problem we have in this thread is that people who have zero knowledge of the Pharmacy and Nursing professions and the ones trying to provide information about the two. It would really be good to stick to what people do know.

That's impressive. You must be in the Research/Academia.

AlphaT1:
Go and gossip, small pikin. You are too dull. You failed JAMB multiple tìmes and ended up in one mushroom Auxiliary Nursing School....Pls buy a small dictionary or better still, download one and learn vocabulary usage. Tuah! Your level of illiteracy can attract flies!

Easy on the poor girl Chief; her mental health could be low.

sweettease:
For nurses it is available even without a BSc and just 1 to 2 years experience, paid employment from the start with full benefits and sponsorship. Imagine the education and experience required before you can even come close to having such in pharmacy research.

You mean you didn't need to write any licensing exams before practicing over there? To answer your question, no significant education- or working experience is required. Just your bachelors degree and 1 or 2 publications in reputable journals will do. And most of them just found of a way of getting their undergraduate theses published in collaboration with their supervisors. The major (if not only) edge Nursing has over Pharmacy is the ease of conversion by the licensing body (before being eligible for practice) in a different country. Besides that, I really don't see much to it.

sweettease:
Good to know the tides have changed. Do you mind sharing with us the short/long term benefits/pay of such partnerships to the pharmacist?

The pay is based on negotiation so there's no fixed amount; however, it's generally in the range of 900-1.3M/year and above for the license and 150K and above for the salary based on my observation. Your question regarding the short-/long-term benefits is unclear; except for the fact you get paid, which is general for every discipline, I really don't see much benefits.

sweettease:
You sound so knowledgeable about what nurses make except it is not entirely accurate. I have friends that make 450-650k in Nigeria as nurses, without their BSc, granted it's in the oil sector and all except one have specialty qualification outside general nursing but I also have another with 12yrs experience that makes 400k/month outside the oil sector, I've come across others that make way more in higher managerial positions, all private sectors. I also got a 150k/month offer as a neonatal intensive care nurse when I had less than 4 years nursing experience in 2017. I dont know the full details of the public sector except for those earning 115-150k and they dont have up to 20yrs experience like you stated so I'm not going to dive into that.

As far as traveling abroad goes, it's always good to weigh your options, I didnt even plan to relocate outside the country before or right after school of nursing in 2013 but during the 2016 recession, I had a rethink and God used nursing to bless me. I decided where I wanted to go from a list of US, UK, Republic of Ireland and Canada. The first 2 offered jobs, green card sponsorship and relocation expenses and Ireland offered 2 out of those 3. After I made up my mind on the one I wanted, wrote the required exams and applied for jobs, I got 3 jobs while I was in Nigeria, i chose 1 that offered the most for the shortest contract and good pay. Relocation and green card sponsorship was by the facility, they even offered to sponsor spouse and kids under 21 If I had any, they paid my flight ticket, first 2 months rent, entire visa process (I left the country with an immigrant(green card) visa), gave me a non interest car loan after I got here and helped me settle in. There was no nepotism involved. I'm sure you cant get that with pharmacy anywhere. There is also more job opportunities and career options for nurses home and abroad. Also, you actually dont need to be a pharmacist to set up a pharmacy, you just have to partner with one.

Wow; Impressive, although the chance of actualising a similar feat is quite slim even among your fellow nurses. You are wrong with sounding so certain a similar feat can't be achieved with pharmacy anywhere; I agree it could be quite challenging for a clinical role; however, I have a number of senior colleagues who have gone through similar route for a research/academic role. So it's not so far-fetched as you think.

sweettease:
With the nigerian situation, you can find pharmacists willing to be associated for a fee, so it is just like another job and he is easily replaceable if the contract is done right in a situation where the non-pharmacist holder controls the fund. Being a partner doesnt mean you have 50% share for contributing no fund to the business. Besides, the option of being a partner isnt even readily available for pharmacists, a lot of them will jump at that opportunity.

On the partner issue, it's actually one of the most readily available options alongside Medical repping. I've lost count of the offers I got even before finishing NYSC (I had my professional license already) and even till now. It seems a number of rich businessmen are becoming aware of the benefits associated with private community establishments, more reason they're willing to delve into the area.

bizme:
You that own a farm and get profit from it you are not involved in greed and extortion right?

Well done, the condemn-er of the brethren. The chief accuser of the brethren.

The mechanic that repairs and services your car is not greedy when he collects his fee?
The market men and women that you buy stuffs from in the markets are not greedy when they make profit from you?

But the Pharmacists, the Doctors, the Nurses, that provide both professional services and pharmaceutical products are greedy, yes? Why? Because you feel they are rich, and because you belong to the group entitled Nigerians who believe those who have money by default owe the poor every thing.

Pele, chief condemn-er.

By the way, I don't only have a well-paying job as a pharmacist, I also own a pharmaceutical company, a farm (including poultry), a financial services firm (co-owned with partners) and so on... Perhaps, you need an adjective that is much worse than "greed" to describe me since I am responsible for any condition that you might have.

You really have time replying every of his response.

LSarcastic:
Mine was crazy. It was just after I wrote WAEC back in 2015. I was jobless and entered into a state of emptiness. Though we were not mandated to do so, I still went to school everyday. It happened day after day until I stumbled on a movie(It's always a movie, isn't it ). I still can't remember the name up till now; an Indian movie about a group of guys who stole tons of gold to be transported. Among the team of thieves was a hacker who eventually sabotaged the entire team with his skills.

I was impressed with that and started trying to get into the field. I was also motivated by the lack of some features I fantasized on in the games I play. I felt 20 people should play PES as multiplayer, each controlling a single player. I got an application from Playstore: XeusHack. I started stuffs there and learned a lot. I would use ideas I learned to play on my dad's PC, making zip bombs, batch files and the sorts. I didn't understand any of the things I typed then.

I then got to a particular topic: Programming. The article then was like, if you can't make your own tools, you're nothing more than a script kiddie. It then listed dozens of programming languages, classifying them by usage. At the bottom of the list were two languages tagged as: "for proffesionals". These two languages were Python and Ruby. Since Python was at the top of the list, I Googled it and got an interpreter: QPython(It's still my favorite Android interpreter and I still use it till date due to it's tight coupling with Linux). It's name is now QPython3L.

My first program in Python(you can guess it) was Hello, world! The moment I ran that code, that was the last time I ever though about hacking. I delved deep into Python and I've not looked back from Programming ever since.

The movie is titled "player", and the hacker's name is spider. Quite an interesting movie.

iomoge2:
Too many to mention and I have not learnt my lesson. I still take crazy risk. Right now I have 2m stocked somewhere

Nice. Quite rare to see ladies do this.

osazee12:
At today rate, your 1 million is equivalent to $2,096. It means you have not even started. One small mistake and you are back to square 1.
1. Open a dom account, covert your money to USD and keep it in there so inflation wont wipe our the value.
2. Get a job or learn a business.
3. Further grow your savings.
4. Invest a portion of no 1. in a usd mutual fund.
5. Get someone experienced to mentor you in whatever career path you choose.
6. Dont leave your parents house until you have grown your net worth to at least $50k.

Regarding the last part, he might never leave then.

Damnnnnn niggarrr
Let me grab my chair and weed while i learn by reading comments....a real niggarrr must always seek for knowledge anyday anytime twice on Wednesday

But to me o.... Stretch marks is not for fat people only
Because have seen it in slim people's body....

Anyway what do i know. I'm just a drunkard, pussy banger and a weed smoker

Bro. What do you for a living?

Imagine this dumb minds killing for the same god that can’t kill those that are killing them in their land daily.

Thank God I wasn’t born there in Kano, I would have been executed a very long time ago

Lmfaooooooooo.

Martinez39:
This is nonsense and unrelated to our discussion. People who pray instead of going to the doctors are just being foolish and are blinded by faith. It has nothing to do with love. It's just an immense confidence in one's god. A human being can run fine on one kidney. There is no reason to deny your good husband of a kidney, let's just admit that she doesn't love her good husband and is willing to run when sh!t hits the fan. Let's say it as it is and stop giving excuses.

I don't have a girlfriend and would never have one.

What's the reason for not having and never intending to have one boss?
Enlighten me.

Kriss216:
It's more noble to fight for Capri-sonne in a child's party than to fight for a woman.


To separate two adults fighting is the second most foolish thing on earth. The first is loving a Nigerian girl.
