If they let u? Canada has extremely Liberal Laws when it comes to Immigration. Apply for a Visa to Visit Niagara falls and they will give you. It is easy and the city is pretty and Huge. You have to see a Hockey game at the Rogers Center and Visit the world's tallest structure in Downtown Toronto. But it is a beautiful and very diverse city. They are welcoming to visitors, but i must warn you that their taxes are high. Oh what i am saying, you will be coming from the UK where prices are out of this world. Good Luck!

You are ABSOLUTELY wrong. Toronto is the most diverse CITY, in the world. Nation is different from city. I am sure you have not been to toronto, that is why you would call London diverse. London doesn't have people from South America that much, you need to go to Toronto. I have been to both of them and she is right, Toronto is more diverse than London and New York Combined. Please do not argue, it is a fact.

Yeah bro! they will buy up all the farms and control prices and wages. This company has a market value of over $211 Billion dollars. They can buy Nigeria and many other countries. Be careful what you wish for.

The whole Lagos is a complete Mess. Including Ikoyi, VI, Lekki,Ikeja,Aja, Epe, Surlere, Yaba ETC.

@Diddy
I wanted to die, did someone say Aba? Please there is no need for Homer choices here. Aba is not a city anymore. It is a dirty market.

@Topic
Best city i will say with all those factors above, has to be CALABAR! Jos might be a close second, but their Governor (Dariye) is a clown.
BusinessRe: Walmart In Nigeria by OldGlory1(m): 8:49pm On May 17, 2006
The worlds biggest or second biggest company. Near 120million people walk thru their doors every week in the US alone. I think they are going to change the global retail landscape. They are already in Many Countries including China, Mexico, UK (Asda) and South Korea and i believe in Japan under a different name. If they came to Nigeria it might be a good thing. Calabar/Tinapa would make a lot of business sense. With the EPZ in Calabar, they can manufacture their goods and sell locally. I think it will be a good thing for walmart's shareholders, i will reserve judgment on it being good for Nigeria.

@Eastcoast

Can u also add exact locations of where these Joints are? For Example you can say Mr. Biggs on Ozumba Mbadiwe in Lagos. So we can have an idea if new ones are in different cities and if we know their specialties, we can add that too. I like this place in PH called Jeviniks in GRA.They have one in Aba , and i think Owerri. Where is Nandos?

Me and you are from different points of view, and we cannot see eye to eye on anything. Whenever you come to the states call me. And we can debate one on one. I am tired of typing and you are not making sense to me anymore. I am sure the felling is mutual. I cannot keep going in circles, we will have to agree to disagree. This is it here for me. If people want to go to London under the HSMP and can go, then more power to them. If they want to stay in Nigeria, more power to them. But we are not going to change each other's mind and i think you should move on to the "sports" thread and i will move on to something. It was nice, be safe out there. Peace!

Right now in Yankee unemployment is at 4.7%. That is considered full employment.  There may be more Jobs than people. That is why Bush is calling for a guest worker program. Jobs that Americans will not do, are being offered to Illegal immigrants. Bush's word not mine. His speech aired about an hour ago. The American economy is on full steam. Read the transcript of Bush's speech www.CNN.com

You are too funny. Big bumber lives in the UK right? You are truly a unique character. By the way, Sage said he would have $4000 in his account after 3 months. That i am sure, if you read it means he would have paid his bills already. I guess you must be living in a "Bubble". When you have money in your account, it means you must have paid your taxes. But i guess he will have to email his bank account statements to you.

You are right. If you Illegal here, it is a whole new ball game. But even Illegal immigrants are willing to leave their countries to come over here and try their luck Illegals Include many thousand of Nigerians, Ghanaians, Mexicans,Ethiopians ETC. There are about 11-20Million Illegal Aliens in the USA today(Bear Sterns). Bush has a big speech tonight, let us hear what he has to say about the Bill in congress right now. Sage you are exactly right though!

Sage $4000 = Naira 600,000.

I was scared there for a minute. I still think it is a complete waste of time, Do South America and Asia and the Pacific Instead. But about missing you! do not push it. The best way to find out about any place you might spend a year in,is to do a "Test run" of the place for yourself.

That chat has Nigeria's price for GPG wrong. Nigerians pay N65 for a Liter of Gasoline, multiply that by 4 is N260 that is nearly $2 per gallon.

GPG=Gas per Gallon

@Chinani

Noooo! say it ain't so. Why would you want to move to Europe? Europe is so damn expensive and life is rough out there. Rome and Paris are brutal cities for immigrants. I am sorry except you have Immigration/Status Issues, i suggest you take Loverbwoy's advice and change your state. Please rethink moving to Europe. I think you can do better here in the US. But if that is really what you want to do, i hope Nigerians in Europe can give you true advice/guidance. I suggest you do a "Test Run" or "Dry run" before you pick up and move. Think of the Language barriers, anti-immigrant policies, very high cost of living and the socialist system of government that can sometimes be very slow and depressing.

But like you always say,"To each his own". Beef aside, think hard on this one.

You are looking for help here too? Ask the owner of this topic how many people will have emailed him already. You and Romano, will always be in the minority. I am sorry you need help to defend your position, but if the man can help highly skilled migrants emigrate to the UK, please let him do his thing. There are not enough jobs in Nigeria to accommodate these job seekers.
