Yes scared of losing money due to stories on nairaland but I have now to till this month end to make a move.

See when it comes to travel matter , dem no dey rush am o! Cos when you rush such things you'll loose money together with your sanity! For God's sake travel requires patience and proper planning if not you would make mistakes! Please make more research and study the countries of your choice well and please make sure any move you're making is legal so that when the chips are down you would at least be at an advantage.

Secondly which route do you want to follow? Student , work or what? So these are the questions you need to ask yourself and sort out.

Do not waste your money migrating to any African country. They are all extensions of Nigeria. Even south Africa that is the most advanced economy in Africa has a 75 percent unemployment rate to put that in context almost 8 out of 10 soutb Africans picked at random are unemployed.
Citation please? However, numerous credible sources disagree with you. SA official unemPloyment rate according to multiple sources is around 32%. 75% is an outright exaggeration of facts.

Bros south Africa's youth unemployment rate is 75 percent. I saw it on a major news reference on twitter. I was beyond shocked when I found out. South Africa has the most jobs in Africa at least on sites like LinkedIn and indeed but it was shocking when I found that out. Unemployment is still a major issue especially amongst young people.

First and foremost , change that your 1 million naira to Dollars and keep it in your Domiciliary account in any of the Nigerian banks while you think of what next to do as per travel matter! Because the way the Naira has been falling ehn! That money in few months from now fit no worth anything again so better change am to Dollars first before anything.
I will start working on this now because I thought of it once, since I was in a haste I put it aside, thanks lordally

With that amount your options are limited to mostly African countries(Which are not that good for hutsling), i suggest you double down on your efforts to make it atleast 2m, with that amount you can hit the likes of poland. Goodluck.

Lordally recommends a good idea but see instead of dorm account use your money to buy USD tether or USD coin but are crypto currencies pegged to the US dollar. The Nigerian government can close domiciliary accounts anytime or prevent access to common Nigerians so best to avoid it.

You would have to check for countries that would allow this that's why I said RESEARCH is key. Cos getting a tourist visa isn't sure and it's a gamble when it comes to US , Canada , Australia , New Zealand etc. With what you just stated , UAE is your best bet. People still go there and find jobs and please if you have an IT skills e go pay you pass.

According to the Quarterly Labour Force Survey (QLFS) of the 1st quarter of 2021, young people are still struggling in the South African labour market. The official unemployment rate was 32,6%. This rate was 46,3% among young people aged 15 – 34 years, implying that almost one in every two young people in the labour force did not have a job in the first quarter of 2021.

We can agree to disagree. A lot of sources put it at 75 percent but the koko is that south africa has very high youth unemployment.

According to an expanded definition of unemployment that includes those discouraged from seeking work, 42.6% of the labour force was without work in the fourth quarter, amounting to 11.1 million people, Stats SA data showed.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-safrica-economy-unemployment/south-africas-unemployment-rate-jumps-to-new-record-high-idUSKBN2AN0S1

------------
Unemployment according to the expanded definition, which includes people who were available for work but not looking for a job, rose to 43.2% from 42.6% the previous quarter. That was as the number of discouraged work seekers surged by 201,000 people in the quarter

------------
Worldbank: %28.74
https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SL.UEM.TOTL.ZS?locations=ZA
-----------
The South African unemployment rate is 29.1%, this is the highest unemployment rate that the country has recorded since the 1970s. The country is in the top ten countries with the highest unemployment rates in the world. COVID-19 threatens to increase the unemployment rate above the 50% mark.

Sincerely Estonia would have been the best because of low tuition fees for Msc route and the fact that they speak English.

Also an Msc in any Mauritius university, you can integrate into their system after school. It is VISA free and their tuition shouldn't be that much. I think btw 1500 to 2500 dollars.

Did She tell you she wants to go to school?

That's among 18 - 25 year olds- people just out of school. Beyond that you should have working experience and so your prospects become better.

General unemployment is around 30%.

Immigrate legally bro, else you will suffer abroad. You people like too much corner corner.

Poland is giving work Visa but as of late they stopped ( as i heard ). So options are few for work Visa. Na student Visa options remain.
