45k pounds is enough for me to run a succesful busy here rather than spending it on a certificate. To hell with MSC

ChristineC:
even if we consider the cheaper schools, average tuition for MSc has gone up to £16k last I checked.
Insurance and visa fee is about £1k. the average student has a spouse so make that £2k.
flight expenses will cost about #1.5m for two people.
average rent in London for somewhere near private for a student is £500 - £650 (£8k a year). hall of residence will be cheaper for those that can afford lump sum.
student expenditure of about £550 monthly (£7k +/-a year). add spouse expenditure of around £300 (£3k +/-). around £10k combined expenditure a year.
we are still having a budget of near £40k.

I will honestly never even understand what migrants find appealing about the UK.

That country drains what should be your savings with monumental taxes. The UK is not even amongst the top 5 countries with the highest GDP per capital.

You wan migrate, wetin do Canada, Australia, USA, Sweden, Austria, or even China, Japan, Russia? Wetin una dey actually find for UK?

Gokoyer0:
This is true for a family moving to UK. One thing is certain, Nigerians will still be going to UK. Many will only enter UK before they realize that mistakes have been made. How many immigrants make 30k pounds/yr in UK right now? Many parents will be total strangers to their children since they have to be working 24/7 to survive.

ChristineC:
true.
but you also have to consider that many people going out for studies do not have this cash saved up.
they rely mostly on the earnings in the UK to cover it and then start earning without much obligations which frees up more disposable cash.

ChristineC:
I'm pretty sure Nigerians will start avoiding the UK, at least those for MSc.
the incentives for them are already wiped off. higher cost equivalent in naira, no dependent, increased visa cost and insurance.
why will anybody be willing to waste £45k for a masters degree in the UK when there are good alternatives like SE Asia, Belgium, Germany, Austria and Canada?

victorsola:
what threshold. Does anybody earn below 12k pounds a year. And if tinubu tax you people will keep screaming yet u can go to another country and get taxed heavily .

ideynl1:
I thought they wanted to stop immigrants from coming in?

So if they stop the migrants, how would they see funds to implement increase in health workers salary?

It seems they aren’t serious.

MrSundry:
About time people shunned UK as a destination for education or work. This doesn't even make any more sense now

UK is the easiest western country to migrate. That's the truth nd simple answer. U can enter UK with less than 5 million packaging. Admission into uk schools no get wahal at all.
UK is a casr of at all at all, na him bad pass.

To attempt Canada relocation, u must have nothing less than 20 million in real cash in your account. The express entry score alone na die.

For Australia, the screening process is tedious and student visa application not too straightforward. Rejection rate is very high.

The only way to enter USA now is student visa. First u write SAT or GMAT, then get school admission which ain't easy. Finally u go and play Russian roulette at the American embassy. U need to see how people are bounced during visa interview. Everybody in the hall will know u've been rejected.

Most European countries have language barriers, without learning the language u can't get good jobs and build a successful career. Most Nigerians in Europe eventually end up relocating to UK due to this issue of language barrier.

China and Russia is out of it. People travel so that they can send money home. Wages in those countries are nothing to write home about. Wetin u wan do with 300 dollars per month. U may live a good live in the countries but nothing else.

Pls don't advice Nigerians to travel to Japan or Singapore. They are not immigrant friendly towards Africans. U will end up wasting years stuck in a place without anything to show for it.

Arab gulf countries is actually a good option for professionals and career people. I'm surprised u didn't mention it.

Edusouls:
Blacks would always favor to serve and ass lick their slave masters , they would still prefer to travel to U.K happily pay anything their slave masters tells them to pay just to feel fulfilled they are in white mans land, black slavery is default wiring by nature now I see…

SmartPolician:
The UK has definitely run out of ideas on how to improve their earnings. That's why they are turning to taxing immigrants.

By the way, I was just studying how countries around the world tax their people. I realise that the UK should be the highest in the world.

Honestly, I hail Nigerians who live in the UK. How can someone cope in a country where you can pay income tax of about 45% coming from a country where you pay peanuts in taxes?

ODUBEZE:
I don't know what people are looking for in UK oooooo

Very soon, reasonable people will start blacklisting them

Dyfynezz12:
How many jobs in Nigeria can pay u more than £125000

In summary

Everyone siddon for your country and build it

I will stay put in my dear native land and make it here come what may. Sad that some people fixated on japa will make their money here and go and get fleeced in the quest to obtaining a visa.

@me
You have forgotten that your rent alone takes £84,000 from there. Your monthly rent of £700 per flat is my rent per annum in naija.

MT:
Stop comparing this way.

Each country pays on the basis of how expensive its country is. If UK starts paying her citizen Nigeria wages, it will never be enough because UK is very expensive.

If Nigerian starts earning UK salary, there will be too much money in circulation which will lead to serious inflation.

Mango and Apple are fruits but different.

What of Buhari?
