How many was accredited?

Our eyes should open in Nigeria. You think other functional seaports in Nigeria closed for nothing? Why is Lagos seaports only the functional seaports in Nigeria? All this things were orchestrated. But God go shame them soon. Nigeria is so corrupt to a fault. And these elites are our problems.

Yet you pack your polybag enter night bus to Lagos? Why dont you remain in your state to do business?

You think Lagos would be this developed like this if we had remained in our places with our polythene bags?

Seriously, let Yorubas be fair to Ibos. If not for igbos in Lagos, these seaports in Lagos, will be useless. Intact there will be no seaports if not igbos in Lagos. Igbos is even instrumental in the development of Lagos. How many yorubas
and non yorubas do import and export than Igbos? The kind of tax igbos pay in Lagos, is second to none. And someone will tell me Tinubu developed Lagos. Abeggggiiiii.

Business of satchet water factory will do. But if i have such money, i will leave this country. No safety here.

The path to settle in the UK is not easy, upon graduation you would be given two years post study visa, if you want to remain in the UK permanently then you must find a UK employer that will sponsor your continuous stay within the two years.

The employer must offer you a qualifying Job Offer to obtain the UK skilled worker visa

Someone said that if you have a child the UK that have stayed up to 5years, that the child is entitled to citizenship and once the child gets that,then you as the parents automatically becomes a citizen. How true pls?

MrBrownJay1:
it all depend on who you are, what kind of lifestyle you wanna live, your state of mind, your immigration status etc

what works for Jide may not work for Taiwo.

Please explain what you meant by 50 50. I am in Education.
I am planning going with my family

WoundedLamb:
Where in the UK? You're probably referring to England or Ireland. I'll give my personal opinion.

UK Pros:
1) I prefer the UK weather
2) I get more value for my money in the UK malls
3) The UK has more architectural beauty
4) There are more Nigerians in the UK
5) You get more vacation time in the UK
6) The UK is more central and nearer to other countries including Nigeria
7) The currency is higher in the UK
8 ) You don't have to worry about drastic changes in policies and laws when you move from one city to another (except you're moving countries)
9) The English language is enough to take you everywhere in England and Ireland
11) Arguably, the UK has more jobs
12) The UK has a richer culture/history
13) There's a better sense of community in the UK
14) The UK has one standard timezone, so you don't have to worry about time difference while traveling across the country.
15) I'd go to the UK if I'm into administration/management/business.

UK Cons:
1) The UK is tiny compared to Canada. This includes the roads, the houses, etc. Everything just looks small to you the moment you move from Canada to the UK.
2) The UK is more traditional/formal. Things like the school you finished from, the social class of your parents, etc. matter more in the UK. In fact, I find the classism really disturbing.
3) There's more racism and homophobia in the UK. These guys don't fail to let you know you don't belong.
4) The people (especially in London) don't go out of thier to be friendly like you would expect in Canada (not like they're mean though)
5) The landscape here is generally boring
6) There's higher crime rate here

Canada Pros:
1) Salaries are higher in Canada
2) Canada has more natural beauty
3) Transition to citizenship is easier in Canada
4) Canada gives you access to the US economy (you can easily work for US firms as a Canadian PR and you can drive across the border to buy things at cheaper rate if you have your visa)
5) Nature! As the second largest country in the world, Canada has vast open space (the whole of UK is not up to the size of Ontario, a province in Canada). Outdoor activities and nature appreciation is an integral part of the Canadian lifestyle.
6) People generally more friendly, welcoming and polite in Canada. Immigrants easily feel at home in the country.
7) Canada is less traditional and more progressive.
8 ) It is bilingual. The French culture is strong in Canada. You might end up learning French depending on where you live. Otherwise, you'd surely explore the rich culture.
9) Racism and homophobia are very much lower in Canada
10) Tax is a bit lower in Canada
11) Quality of life is higher in Canada
12) The healthcare system is better structured in Canada (don't be fooled, it comes at a cost).
13) Canada is a highbrow country. You get the typical American lifestyle in places like Toronto (tall class buildings, condos, long tarred roads, etc) and the typical European lifestyle in places like Québec City (Chateaux, gothic architecture, European culinary styles, etc.)
14) Workplace experience is better in Canada (far less beaucratic)
15) Crime rate is less in Canada
16) I'd go to Canada if I'm into Tech/Data science.

Canada Cons:
1) Canada is literally frozen in winter
2) Canada is arguably more expensive
3) The cities are more futuristic and not as beautiful as the classical ones in the UK
4) If not for immigration, Canada, just like the US, generally doesn't really have a very rich culture
5) Population is very low and the country is more laid back (less crime, less fun)
6) If you move from a big city like Lagos, you'd likely get bored in many Canadian cities
7) Due to the size, the country spans across multiple timezones and could be many hours behind Nigeria.

Summary:
It's really about your lifestyle and what works for you. In terms of day to day living, the two countries have a lot in common and they're really great. Canadians are basically English and French people in North America. The cities are named after European cities. Both countries have the same Queen. Both countries are extremely diverse, though Toronto is touted to be the most diverse city in the world. Personally, I find Canada a better place to live and the UK a better place for vacation. You generally have less to worry about in Canada but that means you also have more interesting things to do in the UK.

Thank you much, this is helpfull.

Please folks, i am kind of confused, i need answers please. I am at the point of decision between canada and Uk, which is the best place to settle and start a new life?
Please state your advantages and disadvantages.
Thank you

Hey buddy, the truth of the matter is renting an apartment for your cousin wont even solve it.
You just have to talk to your wife. What kind of woman is she? Where did you meet her? What's her background like? Does she have a bad past? Is she is clear,then have some mental romance with her.
Get her assurance and never fail to engage her every now and then, play with her, make her happy, don't create any gap at all. Do your civic duty well. She will be home for you. Let her also engage her self in church activities.
Then look for her sister or brother to also stay with them.
Thank you
