Well, the truth is many will return if home is relatively OK. Ghana wey for try fix up and attract such people has a messed up economy. Kenya is neither here nor there. South Africa has its own issues. At least, make the economy work. Most people will just face their lives. But when the economy isn't working, many will prefer to reside with racists in prosperous places than live with tribalists and xenophobes in poor environments. Economics over emotions.

You are right... many people here are really not happy enough with dere lives because all they do is work work just to meet up with bills and expenses...

Nigeria is a great nation seriously... if everyone get minimum wages of about 250k or 300k with cheap foods... I'm pretty sure Japa won't be a thing of necessity... most people will only travel for vacation

Raalsalghul:


Really?

So in the U.S.A, you can only work in the universities as an international student?

And your dependent can't even work...

you never get job or papers you dey give your wife another belle. Too many stupid people out here

I swear I love that country and wanted migrating through studies route but after reading everything I just weak. Omho na very big gamble wey no fit favour you o. Then the dreaded H1B wey you fit no get and even If you get and you get laid off na wahala. You also can't leave while on H1B cause if you get laid off you can't even enter the country.

Some have been laid of with H1B visas
Tho Canada has lunched new Tech immigration routes for H1B visas holder in Tech to easily migrate to Canada and get a Tech job....

Yankee na big country, but the immigration path way is not straightforward like the Canada.

True I rather get another ciitzenship that allows me access to the US job market so I have something to fall back on and not come back to Nigeria in case shit hits the fan cause I can't be illegal anywhere. That one no dey. The Koko is that to even get the H1B visa sef isn't easy. According to USCIS there's more than 750k applicants for 2024 and they will only approve 85000 or thereabouts. It's crazy. By 2025 that number fit enter 1 million or more applicants. So so many people no go even smell the H1B sef.

You pretty right...
I think people will just settle for marriage and get a work permit/greencard after some years... and you know start dia life and career gradually... that's if u single

True marriage is the best and surest way but even that one can't be controlled except you have funds to run it. I hear that even Nigerian born american ladies look down on Nigerian men with no papers.

Yea I guess.. not all tho.. if you single.. you can just find someone to love and marry.. it cost nothing..
but if you are already married back home... den it's a Hugh finance and you can even be denied the process

My takeaway is that Nigerians should know that everything is relative. The UK will either be an upgrade or a downgrade depending on the person's living condition in Nigeria before relocating.

For someone who was balling in Nigeria or comfortable before relocating, the UK will be a massive downgrade if they are stuck in blue collar jobs. It will be a very big upgrade for someone who was unemployed or managing a 200k salary in Nigeria.

I did DHL and GLS sorting job while studying in Germany. And after studying, I couldn't get a professional job except an Amazon warehouse job that pays over €2k. Now the money was good but I was unfulfilled and a bit depressed because I feel I am above that level. I looked around me and quite a lot of people similar to me were stuck in these minimum wage jobs. Infact, my feeling as a black African was more like Germany only considers us for blue collar jobs. The ones who don't want to do manual jobs end up having to do a PhD. I then decided Germany as at then was not for me.

I explored the UK and visited Manchester where many of my family lives in. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't connect to the middle-class Africans. Many of my family members were doing care or factory work so I got discouraged and binned the UK. Got a remote job that pays a bit less than Amazon and returned home to Nigeria.

I'll disagree with the notion that Nigerians in UK are suffering. But I just feel a lot of them are professionally unfulfilled.

I intend to go back abroad and return. But my anthem is simple; " I WILL NEVER DO MANUAL or MINIMUM WAGE JOBS. Wherever I go, I don't want to be in the lower rungs of the society I live in

The US remains the best choice for any professional willing to relocate abroad.

When you were in Germany, did you learn the language? Did you search other cities for jobs Not Just your city?

Brother, these people are men of underworld that dine and eat from this same plate with the devil. All they understand is vanity upon vanity.

Expensive mansions, costly champagnes, classiest chicks (Dem no dey carry eye see yellow Nollywood actresses, lol), private jets (owned and chartered), powerful convoys, bogus contracts to loot money, fixing men loyal to them in position of power and using ethno-religious construct to divide the people.

I am sorry, anybody expecting these people to change doesn't know them or haven't been in their circles. It's what it's

Nigerians are expecting miracles from people that hid indomie during covid . The jokes write themselves. In other countries food was given free to citizens likewise cash. Here, food was hidden till it got spoilt.

Raalsalghul:


Not as straightforward as you seem to put it: experience, other certifications, interview skills of the candidate still comes into play. I'm saying this because I know someone that studied psychology and is finding it hard to lock down a psychology role at NHS. Individual circumstances matter too.

Is the person here in the UK or in Nigeria?

Does he/her have the graduate membership of the British Psychological Society?

With our research so far into US immigration laws, I dare say it makes no sense to spend one's money to study there except the money plenty. The UK is better off. However, if there is a full scholarship attached to it, accept it. But going forward, to access the US labour market for the long term, study in places with trade agreements with the US.

I can imagine the reactions should I create a thread warning people not to study in the US. They will be livid.

Now, this hit differently. These people are wicked.

Boss me, just a few clarifications from what I understand.

1. You did 2 years schooling in Germany & with all the hardships
2. After schooling you couldn't get any professional job except an Amazon warehouse job that pays over €2k.
3. Every other person you knew had to do a PhD just to stay in Germany
4. Many of your family members were doing care or factory work.
5. A lot of Nigerians are professionally unfulfilled
6. You got a remote job that pays around €1.5k (1.3 Million Naira) and you returned to Nigeria.

I am surprised you went through all the DAAD.de hardship, paid and embassy problems only to come back to Nigeria.

Are you sure this isn't a Spiritual Issue?

Also what year was this?
