don't fall for it... You gave a better chance at life in Canada.
The value of naira will be pea nut compared to what you might earn in Canada

But who knows what this job will lead to, plus a bird in the hand and all that... it's really not easy my brother

Gerrard59:
The OP is an Agbadorian who has been at the forefront of dissuading Nigerians from japa. It is a sarcastic post to make it sound stupid to relocate. No one earning 500K in Nigeria would opt for a visit visa.

tensazangetsu20:
I believe these guys are paid at this point. I don't think people are that jobless

CloudTrees:
Yes they are paid. They were called BMC at a point

You obviously don't know me. This is Nairaland - you can go check out anybody's past. Stop being lazy. Below is my last post with most likes

tensazangetsu20:
You are leaving a 500k job In Nigeria for a Canadian visitors visa . Body go tell you.

My mindset too, but... who knows what will happen in Canada, who I will meet, you never know, and that's what's driving me... aaaaggghhhh!!!!

Buzx:
If it's a visitor Visa, please! Take the Job. You can't work with a Visitor Visa in Canada.

But I'm told I can "hustle" and also who knows who I will meet. It's really not easy on me

Ekpekus:
It is a visitor's visa na... not relocation. So take the job and visit Canada when you are vacation since you already have 10 years multiple entry.

My exact mindset too, but I already have these wild dreams in my head and they're not going away. I really wish this job had come earlier or after I'm already in Canada. Why does it always have to be like this?!!

EnvyandHate:

Ostentatious righteousness and homophobia.

You are lucky I don't have your info and photos. I'd start posting all over all social media that you are a woman!
Gay closeted homosexual fucker! You think you're fooling anybody

EnvyandHate:
It's a lie from hell. Michael Obama is a man. And why are you so adamant about his defense? Why does this issue bother you so much because you are the one who brought this issue to light in this post. The title in the post is about Russell Brand and you have been side tracking it with other issues of your own. Stop responding if you are offended unless your true intent is to derail the post.

You sick, SICK, homo of a fellow, you are the one who started posting a poor woman's photos. All I did was give her as a passing example of someone whose photo was doctored. LIFE IS HARD ENOUGH in constant limelight without people like you bandying around nonsense that she is a man! SICK HOMOSEXUALS looking for someone to loop in with them. Now it is "homosexuality started in Africa"! AFRICA HAS TOTALLY AND PERMANENTLY REJECTED AND REPUDIATED HOMOSEXUALITY AND GAY MARRIAGE! Deal with it!! Stop trying to loop us in with you! SICK, confused, closeted HOMOSEXUALS!!!

EnvyandHate:
Oh but I am slandered all the time and this is why I expose these black Sodomites.

I know that Michelle Obama is a man. I have seen many transgenders that are more feminine looking than this obvious looking man. Freedom of Religion, I support Bobrisky's rights to live his forefather's traditions of cross dressing. What I condemn are hypocrites for they are worse than the pagans who engage in idolatry. Hypocrites go out of their way to slander and gossip about others because they want their cake and eat it too. They want to be immoral like the pagan while wearing the masks of righteous Christians. When Barack Obama came to power in America the Blacks came to power and they started slandering and gossipping about innocent people because they knew they were filthy idolatars. All the while Barack Obama the first openly gay president of the United States was promoting Sodomy all over the Earth the hypocrite Blacks of the Freemasonic Cultist world were propagandizing Whites as the origin of homosexuality. No, Gay Marriage originated in Africa. Transgenderism, Cross Dressing and Gay Witchcraft originated in Africa. Slavery originated in Africa and it was White people who ended it.

So curse me for telling the truth I will bless you still. Because you need to come back to the fold of humanity. God is going to reduce the population of alot of Black people because they are the root of all the rebellious evil that is happening in the world. So I pray for you that you find happiness then repent before it's too late.

I pray for you too. But, WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM, my man?? Different if Michelle suddenly dropped from the sky or was an orphan or something. This is someone that had FULL girlhood surrounded by family and childhood friends who are still alive! WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM SIR? You must be a really, REALLY sick fellow!

EnvyandHate:
Well you said yourself that pictures can be altered. I do not think those pictures which are old are true that Michael Michelle Obama Robinson was ever a little girl. And why are Obama's supporters whom love homosexuality offended that anyone thinks his wife is a man? If human sexuality is just another trait then why are you offended? Why you have this vehement spirit to fight for Michael Michelle Obama Robinson as if you are personally offended?

You and I know those pictures are genuine. But I don't even need photos to know!
And yes I am personally offended because this could be my mother or sister or daughter you are slandering.
May you get in situations where you're likewise unjustly slandered!

EnvyandHate:
The reason that I believe you are secretly homosexual is because I have witnessed on this site you vehemently defend Michael Michelle Obama Robinson who is an obvious transgender. You spoke of feminism that you are attracted to it, well there are alot of more transgenders who are feminine looking than Michael Michelle Obama Robinson. Some of them aren't as obviously male looking.

If you have gay tendencies, admit it. Non of us intentionally created our sexuality. I did not make myself heterosexual. Just leave an innocent girl alone (that's actually what she still is inside - that little girl you saw in those photos, never mind first Lady and those other roles)

EnvyandHate:
Are you secretly homosexual?

I KNOW you are, and you don't like that part of you at all. Hence your clumsy attempts to help normalize it.
You won't be the first. Many men have been caught trying to solicit a man while being extremely homo-phobic!

otomatic:
Alright.
Having "created" Hamas, they reserve the right to also destroy Hamas.
I believe Hamas is made up of Isrealis since it is their creation.

It is like FG resurrecting and funding MASSOB to use it in dispowering IPOB

EnvyandHate:
Transgenderism originated in Africa along with Gay Marriage. Cross dressing is a tradition in Africa. Black men are the biggest trannies in the world because they provide a service for a many more that live secretly homosexual..


Michelle Obama Robinson is a man. No picture alteration needed. Just look at that big football player! Towering over other men and women including Obama who is already a tall Nubian.

My man, if you were not confused about your own sexuality and female/male energies you will KNOW MO is all feminine energy. I'm sexually attracted wholly to feminine energy - has nothing to do with looks. You'll just feel it, know it, especially when someone is 100% feminine like Michelle. Some are tom boys or in-between. Not MO. You can tell she has been a girl-girl all her life. There are some women that are in-between, not this one

Of all the first ladies, Michelle Obama is the most girlish

EnvyandHate:
No one can alter Michelle Obama's lies that he is a woman.

Matronly, motherly, totally feminine Michelle Obama is a man. You homo people are really SICK!

kabillionaire:
Did Hamas killed only Israeli soldiers?
For your information, the rules of engagement has been abolished in this war, Israeli soldiers have been given orders to do anything they like without restraint.

But Hamas is an acknowledged TERRORIST organization. Are you saying IDF is one too?

Babangidapikin:
Cold weather is why I am afraid of Canada ... I would rather seat jejeli in hot UAE 🌞 than freeze in Canada ...this your title I am hearing it for the first time, abi is it Dev Ops ...

It is soecific to the company. I tell you, even the cold here Nigeria give me headache and catarrh

EnvyandHate:

A picture is worth a thousand words" is an adage in multiple languages meaning that complex and sometimes multiple ideas can be conveyed by a single still image, which conveys its meaning or essence more effectively than a mere verbal description.


Pictures came before letters, did you know that?

Pictures can be manipulated, altered, interpreted to convey a different meaning (eg. Michelle Obama). Someone's words stay his words!

otomatic:
That is counterintelligence. Keep your friends close but your enemies closer.
So is Hamas stupid? Someone is funding you to destroy yourself and your are operating just the way the person wants you to. Having found out, shouldn't Hamas stop their activities?
Intelligence agencies always have their agents in organisations they are targeting to take down. While there, those agents must be seen to support the organisation, grow up the ranks and hence gather critical information to help achieve their goal.
But then, I don't believe that source. Such information is usually classified.

Nonsense. You don't know what you talking about. They "created" Hamas as a check on PLO which they saw as the big threat

Babangidapikin:
What area of Tech are you focus on , December is usually pretty cold in Canada , I figure out if you could survive it , then you can survive anything.

Software developer support analyst. Definitely won't be this December if I stay. Won't be feasible. That's another thing - I can't stand cold weather

BigdaddyPR:
Initially you made it seem as though you got PR, but with your visit visa, it will be unwise of you to travel when you have a job willing to pay you that much here. Even a job that would pay 150k in Nigeria is better than a Canadian visit visa.

Accept the job, build on your tech work experience and apply for any of the Canadian provincial tech streams, you should get your PR within 2 years, then you can relocate if you still choose to.

Thinking about relocating with a visit visa should never ever cross your mind ever.

Thank you very much for clear advice. My leaning mindset too.. But what could I be missing though. It's really not easy

alphabbey1:
My advice, you are on visit visa, take that 500k. Unless you are going for truck driving licence in Canada which will enable you to get job faster and convert to work permit, don't go to that place expecting a tech job with your visiting visa, its almost a pipe dream... and you wouldn't wanna gamble 500k salary on such...

That's also advice of those over there - but I'm not sure if it's sincere though

Dyfynezz12:
Mayb u 're entering with a visiting visa

Yes, multiple entry though

alphabbey1:
Sure, let's paint Canada with the most negative brush based on the experience of someone on Student Visa...

You are referencing someone that's on student visa, Yet to have the Canadian education certificate to take on skilled work and supposed to be working 20 hours per week... With what that person wrote, he's doing more than 40 hours per week and probably receiving below minimum wage coz he's doing under the table Job so it doesn’t reflect on his work history?

With that same work he's doing without any education or work experience requirement, he will still be able to pay his house rent, school fees, and food.... Yet, the ungrateful soul is complaining... why didn't he come back to Nigeria and be working in sumal or Yale. Let's see which one is stressful with better pay...

Immigration for student anywhere in the world clearly says, pay your full tuition fee or have means to make your payment from your home country business or sponsor and also have one year living expenses.. But everyone will lie there way with fake POF and start ranting when reality of there criminal act dawn on them...
In UK, they will complain, in Australia, they will complain, in Canada, they will complain, in US, they will complain, like goverment is supposed to leave citizen and PR holders and provide for student ?

As a student, you are meant to come with enough funds, many will go empty handed and start hustling for everything down to toothbrush. The worst ones are those on visiting visa. As in, why the fvck will you come to a new country with the mindset of working when immigration policy clearly says no...
Travel Agents will lie to them, They will come, become homeless, and start blaming the Canadian goverment...

In summary, kindly focus on the complain of a citizen or pr holder of a country and kindly ignore that of any student....

But I'm in same exact position - I have a visiting visa

Babangidapikin:
Since your Visa is valid for ten years, stay on your job, reschedule your ticket and take a one month or two weeks leave around December, go and do small hustle...see if it's convenient, come back then make your decision.

Not quite December, but this is towards my current general mindset.. except, what could I be missing not going now??!

otomatic:
How did Israel create Hamas? This sounds like "Nigeria created IPOB". Provide concrete evidence to support your claim. Facts are sacred.
And the access Israel has to Gaza after their pullout from the territory, is to go to war just like they are doing presently.
If Israel had not left Gaza, Hamas would not have been able to prepare their offensive, undetected.
Let's hope that at the end of the day, Gaza will not have a new Jewish settlement to serve as a check on the activities of Hamas.

See below

Daystar7:
For those that still don't know what's going on Gaza and just picking sides blindly let me enlighten y'all a little.
Abraham was called by God (Yahweh) to leave his own country and people and journey to an undesignated land, where he will become the founder of a new nation...

This is the interesting part. It's believed that the Palestinians are Canaanites. When Jews ruled under various configurations beginning circa 1000 BCE, the area was variously known as the Kingdom of Israel, Judea and Samaria. Under the Roman Empire, Jewish sovereignty ended in the Holy Land. By 70 CE, “Syria Palæstina” was a province that combined Roman Syria and Roman Judea. So, the name of this region changed from Judea to Palestine, possibly to minimize Jewish connection to the land. The whole problem there stems from the Roman Empire.

So why do you think.God hasn't brought peace to them? Punishment? Fulfillment? Happenstance?

ExudeLoveToAll:
They are not fighting Gaza, they are chasing Hamas out of Gaza.

Really? Let NA use same method to chase BH, IPOB, abd Asari Dokubo, out of North, SE, and Delta!

zoedew:
Leave tiny bedbug and mosquito on your body!

They are not on anybody's body

jedisco:
First, when asking for advise- know the right demography to ask or keep the demography in mind when asking.

If you ask an average person earning 30- 150k, they'd say stay back cos your average pay is like heaven for them. If you ask folks earning 500k - 1m, they'd see things differently cos 500k is not mind-blowing money for the right skill.

You need to consider a number of things- mainly age, qualifications, flexibility and transferable skills. Also if your current job would permit remote working.

If you were young with tech skills and a Canadian PR, I'd easily say move- 500k is peanuts to what you could potentially earn in Canada. The people shouting tax e.t.c are mainly folks who've not worked/lived elsewhere.

In your case, your canada visa is a visit visa which would not allow you work legally. If this job has good prospects and exposure, then it could be a good stepping stone to bigger things locally or give you the right base to apply for remote tech jobs in Canada or a Canadian masters. You always have the option of visiting Canada later.

Details given are rather sketchy with many important variables unclear.

Thanks for your input my brother. Actually supports my own leaning and advice from folks there. Problem is, I already have these dreams in my head!

Newborn27:
Ok

Abeg na, just a small tiny pinsure

Wizmj4real:
The jihad lead government labelled them IPOD TERRORIST because they had resisted their jihad ideology and fought them out of their land

South East is against jihad and its like that's why the jihad in army uniform is fighting them

So you don't think NA can level SE if they wanted?
