Cost of house rent doesn't have a fixed price over here, some landlords are extremely greedy, some are lenient.
It also depends on the area where you wish to reside.
Most Nigerians stay in serekunda due to proximity to the market.
People that want a soft quiet life like myself prefer to stay in Burisibi senegambia(tourist area)
In serekunda u should get s decent self con for 18000Dalasi a year.180000 in naira
In brussibi its around 300000 to 500000 in naira
Senegambia area is more expensive.

Yes o! About that too there's this guy I'm investigating that claims to be a global citizen. He's on this travel section. Don't know what his aim is but I can bet it's no good. Most of what he says are just hearsays that can be gotten from anywhere online.

I still gathering evidence.

Joezinho:
This guy is a clown. Fraudster, hiding behind a phone to form Slovenian citizen online while lying down on his bedbug infested mattress..

belloabeebb:
Yes in most cases but this guy planned everything well, I won't have sent him anything if not because i spoke with the white man, so i sent him 50k just to let him see that I'm serious, then he grant a video call . This could happen to anyone please lets share and create more awareness.

Greetings, which country you currently reside.

Ayohbk:
As much as I commend your effort in creating this thread and furnishing it with information but I'm sad, angry and disturbed with you following the trend of demonizing your fellow countrymen.

Let me start with the first point of not relating to black guys because they are jealous or blahblah. I will reply to this from my own POV

When I came to Germany 3 years ago, there was a large group of Nigerians who joined the Uni that same time. There was limited knowledge on how to navigate studies and get good jobs. I can remember my second week in Germany, about 5 of us ran into a Ghanaian guy who was in the uni earlier than us and he gave us orientation on how things goes. He was like forget hustle jobs, try to focus on studies squarely and get a proper office job. Then we met a Nigerian who told us to find a hustle Job asap and ride along with studies. We met another person who told us that it's really difficult to find a job, and study is hard here blah blah. Everyone speaks from their experience and their scope of knowledge then it is left to you to know which one works best for you and you can use. Out of the 3 scenarios advised above, none of them really worked for me but I picked something from all the 3 people and many other people and I can say I am in a better place than I can imagine. Personally, I do not believe anyone is jealous or doesn't want you to progress, some might just be frustrated and they project their failures on you unknowingly. It's up to you to process the kind of information you receive. Never dismiss anyone or their experience because they are black or whatever. Believe me I had a 4 hr heated argument with a guy that i came to Germany with on the same plane. He argued that it's not possible for a black guy to get a proper technical job in Germany and I argued otherwise. After that heated argument we literally stopped being friends. But his points always remained at the back of my mind for over a year and it made me scared of applying for jobs so I never applied. I was only doing hustle jobs, until another Nigerian friend got a technical job and he also encouraged me to do same. With input from friends including Nigerians, I improved my skills and my CV, one month after applying I got 4 offers after 100s of rejections. 3 months while working on the part time student job, I got 3 offers for a full time job. I started my full-time job in a multinational company while still studying and also changing my visa status.Also note that till now, my german is not good but the jobs I got are in English.
Points to pick out from this story:
1. The guys that gave us orientation, never told us of the possibility of getting a full-time job while studying. Maybe if they had tild us most of us could have gotten full-time jobs without the whole school stress if anyone is not interested in studying. This is not because they are jealous of us. But they only gave orientation based on their experiences and also rules are being changed constantly.
After getting my full time job, the other Nigerian that encouraged me to apply for technical jobs alsi got a full time job too, he started today. This was made possible by us making further research and also information shared within ourselves.
2. The other guy had the heated argument with, did not make his point based on jealousy or whatever, byt based on experience and also the difficult situation he found himself.
3. There was also a "common belief" that you can't get a good job in Germany without knowledge of German. This is true in some cases, there are some rejections I got abd I asked thdn why, they tell me they need someone with fluent german. if i pass this information to someone else and he takes it as a rule. Then he meets someone that got a job without German, then he will say i don't want his progress. In my situation, the first student job I got in the advert they stated they needed someone with good german. I just applied randomly expecting a rejection. I got called for interview, everything was in English and i got the job. When I was working there, they told me that they need more people but they were not getting applications. I told them it was because the advert was in German and also they stated they needed someone with good german which discourages foreigners to apply cos I also almost didn't apply. Then they told me the company only recently started adopting English as working language. They asked me to help them rewrite the advert in English and also recommend people.




I've met Germans who are surprised that I got a full-time job while studying. There was even a german who once kinda implied to my Indian friend that he shouldn't ask for a certain range if salary during interview. Guess what, my friend negotiated for over 10k higher and I also even got higher that the range he stated �. Does thqt mean he's jealous, No, he was only speaking based on experience.

Now, when I meet newcomers, I always tell them just keep applying and improving your skills. Send like 10 applications per day. It doesn't mean I'm a better person or whatever. I only gave that advice based on experience.

To finish my point, make friends with anyone you meet, relate with and have similar goals and drive regardless of their color. Believe me, the familiarity and brotherly joy, I get when amongst black people or most especially Nigerians you can't replicate. Make friends wirh someone does not neab trust them completely or take their words as Bible. It's everyman for himself everywhere.
No matter how hard you try, you can never fit in completely in a Group of friends filled with white people and also you can almost never have a German best friend. Most of them already formed their cliques or best friends since their high school days. It's probably easier for a black person born here or in their teens or early 20s. If you are beyond this age group, you'll have to be your own best friend. Everywhere you go just try to be the best version of yourself, smile, relate with people regardless of their color, share and get information you need, go hine and sleep. Rinse and repeat everyday.

Don't loose yourself trying to fit in a white society. Don't demonize your people.

Helping a person to Come over is never a problem, But one needs to be Very careful not to help the wrong person Come over. There are dozens of companies to ask that favour from, through my acquaintance with different EU Company CEOs i have Worked with, But one must be Very certain of the person you are referring to help Come over on work permit, because if you mess up, it's on me.

pansophist:
I swear if you enter Slovenia with that passport, the security guys would look at you like you forged the passport because it is extremely rare to see a black face on a Slovenian passport .

I flew to Slovakia one time and the border officers were checking my passport thoroughly, scanned it over and over, and wasted my time because they thought I faked my EU passport. They just cant believe a black man can have it because their country is really homogenous.

Meanwhile, in the UK, no one cares, there are millions of non-white Brits and they are used to them. Congrats man, I remember how happy I was when I got mine, it was one of the happiest days of my life. I was so happy, I knew what it means to be happy To be able to visit close to two hundred countries on earth without a visa is freedom.

BritishNaija:
How?

BritishNaija:
Thank you. I have literally Travelled all the Schengen Zones, It would have been Austria or Germany, But I decided slovenia is the best to stay put more.

Women like attention ehh . I was waiting to see beauty on one side and beast on the other side but i was disappointed. She looks the same way. Its just makeup and good camera . Lowkey, she no even fine like that sef na makeup...Makeup has helped most ladies sha ohh .

Any little problem or life challenge a woman goes through, everybody must know. They can't handle something on their own. Attention and cloutchase is their major problem.
But when a man has problems, he solves them alone. He goes through things alone. He suffers to make sure all is well at home. We all know that men are the major pillars. Yet they will still want to be forming nonsense feminists. Feminist that will still be praying to God for a Godfearing, rich and caring man.... Nonsense .

Cheers to all real men out there... May your pocket never run dry.







As our Ancestors would say "A woman's medicine to unnecessary behaviour is attention".

feelgoodstuffs:
Foodstuffs is still a good idea, but you need to live there physically to see for yourself, it will help to determine their needs.

Chibueze775:

feelgoodstuffs:
It depends on the kind of business. What do you have in mind?

Chibueze775:

Unfortunately most pathways will require at least a first degree, however, you can refer to other Australian migration threads for more information.
