It’s a huge criminal racketeering.
Brother... A dangerous money ring at that!

A very humongous fraudulent cabal!

That's basically an indictment on our educational sector as a core English speaking nation!... I'm surprised that no Education minister has for once taken it up with them!

Them again... It's not just IELTS milking the Japa system!

Other establishments are doing theirs too.

Even schools increased fees for Transcripts...

Heard from a friend that Pharmacist Council increased their fee for letter of good standing (an application requirement) for migrating Pharmacists from 35k to 100k!

Omoluabis doing good and impacting lives since 1677 without making noise.
They’ve always been a good ambassador of Nigeria and Africa at large anywhere they are outside the continent.
What of you? What good have you done and lives impacted since 1677?

Great job, it is quite discriminatory to ask me to write an English test as if I speak Spanish. Someone who speaks French, German, Spanish etc will write an English test to test their proficiency yet me that have been speaking English since primary school will still write same test.

But of course, our government does not care because it will not bring a penny to their pockets.
That is even good. If you pass the exam, after 2years the result expires. You will now need to write another IELTS to prove that you can speak English. As far as they are concerned, your ability to speak English only lasts for 2years

Not just discriminatory... It is criminal!

That IELTS thing is deeply insulting!

The fact that Nigerians are part of those collecting the huge fees and administering the silly exams makes it all the more pathetic!

We have no dignity as a nation...!
UK and USA citizens relocating to Canada also write IELTS general for immigration.

I beg,no spoil this thread nah. No mention Nigeria evil government in this discussion.

Didn't you read in the papers or watch on television when one of the evil governors of Ogun State called Senator Ibikunle Amosun was lamenting that foreign nations are bad and evil for giving Nigeria's youths opportunity to travel abroad to study and work? Thunder will soon strike that useless and evil ex governor

The right step in the right direction

We are an Anglophone country, and English is our lingual Franca; why the test of English again
This man is the Man Of The Year 2022!
Why should Britain,Canada,etc be subjecting Nigerians to another English testing,when they know that Nigeria is 100% English Speaking People?
This is the kind of Nonsense they will not take for their own Citizens because they have been benefiting from it for so long!
Terrible and Shameful!

The benefits this singular act will bring to Nigeria is far better than the benefits we have gotten from some of our leaders in the past 10 years.
This is because we are the true leaders.

could not find the most recent list of permanent residents who arrived Canada. UK and USA are always on the top 10 list. And yes everyone is required to have IELTS to be able to create an account to apply if not you can’t register.

Nice one. More Nigerians need to speak up on this issue so other Foreign Universities can follow suit. Because I find it absolutely ridiculous that schools outside Nigeria demand IELTS from applicants from a country whose official and number 1 Language is English... Matter of fact, most Nigerians even speak better English than most of these Western English speaking countries...
it's kinds ridiculous cause you can be going for your masters and you'll be required to write that silly exam.

How does the screenshot you shared confirm what you said that folks from the US and UK need IELTS to get into Canada?

Old story from 2022 if not 2021. They later reversed the decision. IELTS is still mandatory.
Re: Dr Olumuyiwa Igbalajobi Asks Canadian University To Stop IELTS In Nigeria by seunny4lif(m): 10:44am On Jan 03, 2023
This reminded me of my friend, that said his school want proof of English language after he was offered admission to study in undergrad course in DCU, Ireland.

He said he replied them, that he as been speaking English for 25 years of his life and before he applied for admission, he as been living in the UK and Ireland for total of 4 years.

The school just removed the English language requirement quickly.
