Gerrard59: I’ll never understand how some sell, spend, and give up everything to migrate without taking the time out to get a good head start on learning the language of the country they are traveling to. YouTube, apps, and language programs are all tools to learning but some Nigerians would rather take a chance and depend on the fraction of populations that speak English. Not knowing languages is a definite roadblock. Yes, a German company may have English speaking sectors but when two prospective employees are interviewed and one is bilingual while the other speaks only English it’s evident who will win. 35 Likes 2 Shares |

justwise: I’ve yet to see more than a handful of monikers discuss or acknowledge that mortgage payments are usually much smaller than rent but I’ll attribute some of that to them not understanding the credit system of the West. While they see credit and debt as a death sentence they don’t realize that without the use of credit and some debt (even small) at sometime or another, a person is basically nobody in the sense that they can’t really be established. The hatred and fear of bills and taxes never ceases to amaze me. 14 Likes 4 Shares |

1stGenAmerican: This is what I dont understand honestly. The fixation on USA UK Australia and Canada as if they are the only countries that exist in the world is madness. Theres really amazing countries out there. They might not be as good as the USA but at least you would have everything to have a decent life. 19 Likes 1 Share |

tensazangetsu20: While I’d recommend all 3 because there is a true chance of success with proper planning and preparation, I agree that there are many other countries that are more than suitable. What’s necessary is discernment though. Some of the countries I see people enquiring about are not great choices for Nigerians or anyone else to migrate to but rather than doing their own in depth research, they happily accept and process the second and third hand advice as long as it all sounds positive and easy. 1 Like |

1stGenAmerican: A lot of us are just not educated. A Nigerian gave birth to his child in Mexico and shared the picture on twitter and you need to see how Nigerians abused the guy. That a whole Mexico, what's there. I think our knowledge about the global south is just from CNN and Netflix series like narcos. Nobody bothers to read or do any research. 24 Likes 1 Share |

Ojay01: A link to the tweet but if you have the money and resources you are better off giving birth to your child in Chile. You had to travel to Dubai for the embassy before but there's an embassy in Ghana now. Chile has the third strongest passport in the Americas. https://twitter.com/Kingkuti_/status/1556242116321234944?t=5jhUyqHHQDJ6incbO_cSCw&s=19 8 Likes 3 Shares |

1stGenAmerican: Absolutely! With mortgage you will surely finish paying it while paying rent has no end. Paying rent is paying landlord/lady's mortgage. Getting mortgage increases your credit worthiness and improves your credit score. 25 Likes 2 Shares |

1stGenAmerican: Very few Nigerians know how to speak, read and write French - the lingua franca of all countries abut to her. Is it Spanish they will understand? My post was about Mexican universities teaching in English. That doesn't mean prospective students wouldn't learn Spanish, but expecting people who spent two years after graduation gathering money for postgraduate studies to know Spanish prior to entry even when they don't know French is very unrealistic. 6 Likes |

Now I know why my friend enrolled for another master's program, I was asking him and he never gave me an answer. He was encouraging me to come, but now I know that he doesn't have my interest at heart. I will rather take the long road to the US through PhD(full scholarship), though is difficult but I'm ready to take my chances. I know say I go definitely marry one yankee within my first 2 years there. Edit: Just had a talk with a mutual friend who is in Germany trying to make some inquiries and he told me my friend in the UK switched to nursing. 34 Likes 1 Share |

freddie009: I am curious, Did he enrol for another master's program after obtaining an MSc degree in the same UK? This means he would have two MSc degrees from UK universities? Why did he not opt for a PhD? BTW, what did he study in the first master's and what is he studying in the current one? 3 Likes |

ednut1: I’m sorry, I mean I am really really sorry. I can’t just imagine myself taking 10m or more for schooling abroad. I dey craze? Even 5m I no go do am. Will rather take that money to farm and sit there monitor my irrigation farming. I don’t have any problem with people doing that though but I just can’t because the entrepreneurship blood in me won’t agree with that action 29 Likes 1 Share |

Munamoqel: I don’t know why people like calling other african countries as better than nigeria. Maybe what they read online rather than the reality on ground. Ghana, Benin Republic, Rwanda, Kenya - these countries are not better than nigeria, this I know for sure. South Africa - it is becoming a mess presently and if care is not taken, they will be something else in the next 5 years. Gambia, Cape Verde - can’t say about these 2. Don’t know much about them If there is one thing I know of, it is ghana is very very expensive for their standard of living and cost of living. The last time I went to ghana was in 2017 and I stayed with a Ghanaian friend at Kasoa. He rented a studio demarcated into 2 bedroom flat for 9,000 ghana cedis per year. As at them, that was 900k in naira for just a studio or let’s just agree a 2 bedroom flat in out skirt of the capital Accra oooooo. Not capital center like circle, tudu, teshie etc. Ghana is the most expensive country in west Africa. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Their fore fathers used our fore fathers as slaves, their fathers did the same to our fathers and now their children are doing it to us. The question is- when will the black man learn?
