Well, i am in canada and i am talking from my iwn perspective. What I said above has been working for me.

Feggie3:
Lol
Are you in which country?
What do you know that you think they don't know?
If there is competition in a place, and a manager tends to favour or listen more to a particular faction, isn't the system already compromised?

In my own case, if you are in a less favoured faction and you have shown high level of knowledge, the manager may be scared of you and may easily want to get rid of you so you don't raise an alarm.

Well, i believe the racism of a thing is more prominent in one man or small scale businesses, jobs I've never done here before. From my experience with structured organizations, racism can cost the company a fortune, so there are strict laws against it. And as i have said, you must know your onions. Oyibo wont respect you for being you, but they'll respect you for your knowledge.

Feggie3:
You can't challenge your employer not even by showing him how smart you are. If there is any narrative against your skin colour in an organisation, you must learn how to thread carefully except you are ready to get the sack.
From my experience, atimes they may prefer their own skin who is a novice and offer him training opportunities than you who is highly skilled black. It is an individual preference though. Sometimes they are sneaky and do pass false narratives against maybe because of cultural differences and diversity.
You may want to vocalise your dissatisfaction but you must ensure you have where else you can feed from when they systematically give you a reconstructive dismissal. They are smart and witty.
Mind you, not all of them are like that though. That is why I said they racists amongst them. They just behave like tribalists. Someone can just hate you for no reason. From the nature of your hair, to your accent, to your masculinity or your dark complexion. Infact they just prefer to be with their own irrespective of your gestures. Same thing with tribalists.
Nothing much shaa!!

Your last part is not totally true. As a black person, you'll be challenged by these oyibo anywhere you get to, especially if youre their boss. But as soon as they realize that you're smart and know what you're doing, they shrink back into their shell and respect you.

The problem with most of our people is that they already assume that oyibo has more sense than them and that they can't challenge them. If you cross my lane as oyibo professionally, I show you wotowoto sharp sharp.

I can assure you that if you're yoruba who needs something from a federal parastata in abuja, the ethic racism you'll experience from a hausa man in the office is worse than the nationalistic racism from oyibo.

Feggie3:
These white people will talk to you and treat you like a slave. A nobody.

And you will be aware that through out your whole existence in Nigeria nobody ever spoke to you this way.
I know you will say that you are interested in the money. But trust me working for a racist who obviously hates you is like being a young female in a toxic relationship. That's the feeling. You can't even talk or have a say!!

RACISM is real... It's worse than what you may imagine.
You just have to readjust and learn to live with a bruised ego for the rest of your life.

You sabi, you be man. Leave those yarning dust to keep it up. They think that if Mr Ibu were to be a Canadian citizen, they will be begging for money to pay his hospital bills. The kind life he go chop for hospital bed for free sef with free treatment for pass Eko hotel own.

Many people think it's just about naira salary until they need medical care that requires 10 million naira cash in less than one week or death, before they realize that what they earn is nothing.

ednut1:
what of foreign passport All the children of the elite have dual citizenship, the elite themselves have carribean passports which they paid 150k to 250k usd for. I have been in Canada 3 years, collected citizenship last week. The lady in the video should renounce her citizenship and gi back to Somalia or Eritea

I earned exactly this amount 3 years ago while in nigeria before i relocated to Canada. Since I've been here, I've changed my car three times in 3 year, cars that included a Dodge Durango, a car in range rover category, all purchased cash and not on loan or credit. If you're relocating just because of money, you're getting it totally wrong. Have you ever asked yourself why those ruling Nigeria or in the corridors of power, have a form of dual citizenship or have somehow lived in some of these western countries before? No one says immediately you land in canada that one big office is waiting for you.

If you are smart enough to make 500+k in nigeria, especially as salary, i can tell you that you jave what it takes to be successful in canada in a matter of a short period.

My two cents is, if you want to travel, travel. If you feel nigeria is good for you, stay back. Everyone's measure of comfort and success differs, and whatever yours is determines the decision you will make.

I don't know where you guys get the idea of being a slave from, as if you're not a slave to your employer or boss in Nigeria. If you know how many Nigerians are in top positions here in canada, the word slave wouldn't be an adjective to defend your decision not to travel.

Myself and this lady who posted this video everyone is commenting on chatted on Instagram, and i can assure you that if you listen to her advise and not come to canada, she herself will call you an idiot.

smasher1:
She's right. Why would someone earning above 500k monthly with free medical (insurance), possibility of a higher pay(promotion) or new job etc leave Nigeria to be a slave. I won't ever do that no matter the issues, no 247 light, insecurities etc. I won't contemplate it.

Cooolme:
I just complained about her snubbing my messages, don't know how you people turned it to me begging her for money.
I'm not even abroad yet and I can say I receive worse Billings. It's all around not just limited to y'all abroad. I don't know who else may be billing her but as for my fam, they prefer billing me instead and I most times deliver if I have.

I am 100% sure you have many people in your contact that haven't communicated with you for months. If there's no anterior motive to your wanting to be in touch with her, then why are you so pained that she's snubbing you, blocking her and utmost bringing her matter to a social media platform.

Let her be, live your life as if she doesn't exist and stop worrying about someone making a life for herself not communicating with you.

Biola67:
You said you now have more than enough to even send her. Dem no like who dem no Dey feed.. you gerrit?

I am abroad and this is not true. It just becomes annoying when you look at your phone everyday and all you see is request for money from different people.

It becomes most annoying when you're most likely sleeping or just waking up to see such messages when you look at your phone first thing in the morning. Usually those sending such messages don't put time difference into consideration.

As much as someone abroad is willing to help, those being helped should not be entitled. Those abroad too should learn not to create an avenue for dependence.

Relationships are meant to be mutual, not parasitic.

Read the Bible book of Esther Chapter 1 verse 1.

Quintessence44:
SHE IS A BLACK WOMAN.

The first Indians were BLACK AFRICANS. In fact the ancient Greek scholar Herodotus, around the year 450 BC, referred to India as ''the other Ethiopia''.

Of course, 'Ethiopia' was the name the ancient Greeks gave to all Africa south of the Sahara.

The Africans, many (but not all) of whom were from the Horn of Africa, migrated to India on ships, and established Indian civilization, as well as the first empires of India 3,000 years ago.

They are now known as the Dravidians in India.

The Dravidians after a few thousand years of dominance were overran by Aryans from the north, which led to their current population constitution whereby the south of India is mostly black/brown while the north is lighter skin coloured, plus various shades in between caused by intermarriage and racial mixture.

Open the Bible and read Esther Chapter 1 verse 1. It helped me understand how we have black indians.

GYBABA:
Jeez, she's an Asian that's just dark skinned probably due to been exposed to harsh weather conditions or her genes are responsible. Don't you see dark skinned Indians when you watch Bollywood movies? These guys are mostly used as thugs, criminals, henchmen & stuff. Do blacks even have that hairstyle she has naturally? Nawa for you ooo

Attitudes like hers aren't just developed, they're learned. Her name is Elizabeth Folake Cambage. Her Australian mum divorced her nigerian dad when she was very young. A big question to ask her is that, what has her mum told her about Nigeria and Nigerians over the years that turned her to hate Nigerians so much? And if you check all her playing history and records, she was never in any team for more than a year at a stretch throughout her Profesional career. I believe that says a lot about the kind of attitude she possesses.

Blaze14k:
Do Canada have ethnic tension that exist in nigeria? Talk more of united states

Yes. Canada does. Always get your facts right.

What he did is very legal.

iyatrustee:
Many people just live abroad but they are ignorant of the laws.

I have one in this same location but i dont know how to ride.

ednut1:
Avid rider . My first bike was stolen when i rode it to the gym.

You dey mind the mumu? I drove my wife to my barber, had her cut her hair and painted it light pink. I paid $150 for it. The hairstyle was one of the things that attracted me to her four years ago and i wanted that look again.

Say person be doctor no mean say he get sense.

gypsey:
bullshit! This guy is not even 30 years old yet and he thinks he knows what men want in women, taaa! Gbafuoo!! My ex wife a doctor had orange hair colour when i first met her in a night club..

This is the best advise so far and the op doesn't even seem to care about it.
You will regret not working on the second paragraph for not less than a year after you land in canada if you dont start working on it now as suggested.

ayandee:
Op stop disturbing yourself unnecessarily. Many Women have come here to study and filed for their husband and kids to join them shortly after. That happens more often and it is not reported in the media. Only the very few négative stories seep into the média.

Congratulations on your wife's admission and visa. Start getting ready to join her soon. Spend this time researching into the certifications necessary in your field and start planning on how to get them done to increase your prospects of a good job at landing.

I was actually motivated to count the number of knocks his friend gave him, 178 in total. Just from his friend o. I didn't count the native doctor's o.

Segzy19:
That boy should have had a brain reset with those head-knocks from his friend and the ram horn the herbalist used on him.

The love of money is the root of all evil, not money itself

We have a similar story. Op, i give you this exact advice. May God see you through.

Ifakiland:
Been in your shoes before bro, at a point I tot na village people or say maybe one of my ex don swear for me. I begin dey call each of the bishes to apologise. But den I never stopped planning and and hoping....I also never stopped applying for jobs, any job....I did painting of house, barbing of hair, teaching, warehouse, sales etc....now I dey outside the country, married to a doctor and life don dey turn up small small.
Never give up. Na who give up fuq up oh.
Also find a girl that has what you lack and that you have what she lacks and build a future togeda. Bye for now. This advice is worth £20k but I give you free clap for me oh

Na the oyibos wey dem flog build their country. Tjose wey dem no flog don dey ruin am already. The shootings in the US, mostly by undisciplined teenagers is a typical example.

Mindlog:
No, disciplining a toddler should not involve flogging.

In as much as some Nigerians do "glorify" the beatings (some qualifies as near murder as brutality was normalized) they received as children (personally, I regard it as unhealthy coping mechanism), we need to ask how that has manifested in the adults we have in Nigeria today.

Oyibo dey spoil pikin, na the same spoilt pikins who become adults they manage their countries and many Africans with the severe beatings as children, are the ones queueing up at the embassy for Visa to those countries.

I dig bro, 100%.

pansophist:
Yes o, a lot of our guys no de try at all. Only two of my good friends I've hooked up with my female friends over here. And it'd because I know them well, trust them, and our friendship have stood the test of times. My conscience would kill me, if I match a good girl with the wrong man.

Men too are leeches, quite a lot of them. But we aint yet ready to talk more about male leeches . So let's us all pretend like it's only women that are leeches, and keep deceiving ourselves

You've said it all. Many of them discuss with my wife to tell me to help them find good guys on regular basis and trust me, there are a lot of good, well trained nigerian girls over here in canada. Just that the few has ruined the chances of majority and most of our nija guys too no dey try at all.

pansophist:
A guy doing well for himself stands a good chance to marry these abroad women. I live here with them and I can't count how many are asking me to hook them up with good men back home. I hooked one last two years, he is in Canada now since last year, while a British Jamaican girl that came to visit me last year November fell in love with one of my friend. They are dating for two months now.

These ladies are suffering from how feminism have made men weak, scared/detest commitment and just lack masculinity. I feel sorry for many of them. And many of them are quite good women, but like most things, the few mess it up for the majority.

Very true as I'ma living witness. You need to up your game as a guy and know your onions. The best will find you.

pansophist:
Women do actually marry homebased guys. I know alot who does. But usually not anyhow guys, the guys are usually doing well for themselves.

I was in this shoes just less than a year back before I joined my wife here. It's not easy but with God's help and the trust you had for your partner before you married her, there should not be a problem. I had to wait in nija for exactly one year before being able to get my papers but with God's help, I am here and we are doing very good.
Not every woman or man is that sincere and loyal, the more reason why before you marry anyone living far away, you must make sure you trust the person and always dwell on that. Also the line of communication must be very open between you both. No room for lies. At every point in time, tell yourselves everything, when I say everything I mean everything minute by minute. Both of your activities must be predictable and calls must be picked at every single time you hear your phone ring.

Gjmff:
People are suffering

Suffering like crazy

If 100 is actually the number you're planning, make sure you triple it in preparation.

realman42:
All these naija weddings sef.My wedding won't have more than 100 pipul.Beautiful location,beautiful gown, nice suit, and nice pictures dats all.

It's obvious you have never stepped your foot outside Nigeria to understand what sanity is.

wwwihy:
Nigeria will be great

We shall overcome

Only corrupt pastors and preachers instigating the populace that need escape routes.

God Bless President Buhari
God Bless Federal Republic of Nigeria

Yes sir. Nigeria is cursed and can never be redeemed.

jlinkd78:
Is Nigeria really cursed?

How much you think say you get wey make youget right of migrationor entry into canada?

jUeLiZ:
so person were get him money nor fit just relocate rather than go through all this stress?

Who told you he never had a girlfriend? quote author=madridsta007 post=98866085]

This, to many is totally astonishing though inspirational to students out there because of how well-involved Adebisi is in many extra-curricular activities and his achievements throughout his stay in the University.

The simple reason why he was able to achieve this, asides the important spiritual element, is the fact that he went through the University (1) Without a girlfriend and (2) lived above peer pressure from his mates. Let us begin to tell ourselves the truth. If you want to be average in University? Get a boyfriend or a girlfriend. I know a lady who was on her way to becoming the best graduating student with a 1st class. She met a guy and in the end she managed she come out with a 2.1. And belle.
Young people in school stay away from girlfriends/boyfriends and above the influence of peer pressure.
Do this two and put in the hardwork and you will graduate with a 1st Class + accolades.[/quote]

[Hehehehe..funny. Hes calm and yet firm with girls quote author=FreeSpirited post=98863159]He achieved much cos vagina people has not infiltrated his head...once they target him with their confusion laden, intoxicating ,pvvsy fluid... achievement go drop like fallen bwest...he should fear and stay away from those species of human...talking from experience......I used to be like him until...vagina spp showed up in the scene[/quote]

He is more careful than you can imagine.

Lewisdinho:
Congratulations Dude. One good advice, be very careful with women or the woman you will settle down with if you want to be this excellent onward.
