TravelRe: Should I Stay and Complete My PhD Or Accept a 30 NZD Per Hour Job In New Zealand by JohnOgbons: 10:42am On Oct 18, 2023
It's ok to be at such a crossroad. I am also in the academia and doing a PhD like you. The question is after the PhD, what would be your monthly take-home pay? If you are a Lecturer II, you will probably earn between 135k-140k. If you are Lecturer I, you will earn between 160k-165k. Even if you are crowned a professor after the PhD, you may not likely get up to 400k/month. Consider how long it will take you to become a Professor.

New Zealand is as good as Australia. As a matter of fact, if you become a citizen in New Zealand, you will have access to loads of privileges in Australia. Currently, the Australian dollar exchanges for #640 at the black market. The New Zealand currency is also that strong. In New Zealand, you are likely to get a scholarship, and if you don't get, you will pay same fee as the domestic students.

I didn't accept a job offer in the UK after my masters because I wanted to come home and serve out my bond. That was a huge mistake I made. As a fellow comrade, I expected that by now you should be at the airport leaving this country, unless your village people are at work.

Oya! Pack your things and leave.
TravelRe: My Flight Has A Stopover At Dublin, Do I Need A Transit Visa? by JohnOgbons: 1:30pm On Jul 22, 2023
You need a transit visa even if you are staying at the airport. My friend had to return back to Nigeria form Dublin two days ago because the agent he used didn't tell him there was a need for a transit visa.
