So sad.....our parents deserves the best of care. I pray to be at my father's bedside at that final moment just to tell him how much I love him and the efforts he made for us. My presence gives him so much relief.....once I hear that his situation has worsen, kia kia, I will fly to the East to chat him up. My presence always provides him with the tonic to come alive. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Let me school some people 90% left Nigeria without paper. Lot of things have change in Canada from having paper to attend medical school, pharmacy School or nursing school but today you don't need paper U leave Nigeria without paper Likely might take 0 year to 2 year to get paper. My younger brother in TO had to remind me that some people have to send money home to their family to feed and pay rent U start community college two year you graduate. U take one year off before returning back to university other two years Graduate no work experiencing you start looking for company to give you opportunity. There have been lot of changes in Canada for the past 20 years U just gone off the boat you think you know it all Like I like to LOL people in Canada telling me house is cheap in the US Their house is Million Dollar I LOL why if 95% of the people that tell me their house is Million dollar come to US they go jump from the window if you see the property tax of million dollar house Housing thing in Ontario and BC is a scam Let me add this the person that attend school in Canada might have student loan. U that come from Nigeria don't have student loan Family background you might not have to support your family in Nigeria. 1 Like 1 Share |

sukkot: I have been contemplating on the kind of person that you're from the first thread until I saw this your response. Listen and listen carefully, not every wealth is illegal, many people are destined to excel in life as long as they do what they are destined to do. Yes, I am a living witness. I remember few years ago, I was coming back from a Lenten period program in my church with one other guy, during our discussion the guy told me plainly that he doesn't believe people can make plenty money without going illegal or doing some shi tty things(you know what I mean?) I told him to change that perspective or way of thinking because it is very possible and e dey happen. That guy is someone like you. 1 Like |

And for the bolded, you are still wrong using the word easier... Maybe its UK of olden days you are reffering to.... The care Job will still be sold to you, if you like, be living beside the agency house... They ain't gonna give you sponsorship for free.... And don't tell me you've seen someone that got the care with sponsorship for free, there are always exception and whataboutism to things.... We talking of general cases here...

GoodFaith:What is the justification for moving abroad without the right permit ? If I am narrow minded for moving abroad with "paper" as you call it or thinking that the proper thing to do is to be a legal resident then so be it. There are tons of Nigerians in Canada with valid study permit, work permit, PR and citizens. Those that opted to come here as tourists and stay back for 15 years stuck made the choice. I won't normalize it after all everyone I know in Canada has a valid right of residence. 4 Likes |

Abroad na your mate. The rate of fake lifestyle westerners live, I doubt why they condemn Nigeria with scam. Na to dey live life on credit... Most Americans are living live on credit and they go everywhere in the world to brag how they are the weathiest nation in the world and take others' natural and human possessions. This life, I think we just have to fake it to feel we are there. I see a lot of Nigeria abroadians dey show their houses to oppress their countryman counterpart and I wonder why they do so. Most of the house that that would scam their countryman on japa consultancy and pay the damn mortgage for lifetime. If I make about a million naira monthly in nigeria, why on earth would I relocate with nonimmigrant visa? Thank God for social media, at least, people can have other side of the story if they wish to hear. jubrilELsudan: |

GoodFaith: All these doesn't really matter, the koko is if you're a legal migrant that does his/her homework before embarking on the journey. See ehn, there is many advantages with being legal, you can easily change location if the one you are in doesn't work the way you want. Wait, you think a person who built himself up from nothing to something, can't achieve anything in such countries if he/she finds themselves their legally? 2 Likes |

Two of my guys who moved to Canada less than a year ago are already in possession of a BMW and Mercedes indebted to the tune of almost $50,000 each. They sent pictures of the car to people in Nigeria already lol showing how great there life is. |

Are you saying that if people migrate legally to uk, they can’t leave for another decade because of papers? I think you must be referring to illegal migration. In that case fix your topic to match the real issue. I don’t believe a legal migrant to uk can’t come and go as they please or can afford to sukkot: |

GoodFaith:I learnt long ago that building wealth and attaining financial freedom is a very slow process that requires consistency and perseverance. The Nigerian culture can be oppressive hence people feel they need to acquire things they don’t need or can barely afford to prove to others that they’ve arrived. I don’t subscribe to that and I enjoy my peaceful life. My 15 year old Camry is there in Lagos. Once I’m in naija I start it and drive around. Some people have been telling me that as I’m in Canada I ought to have shipped in a better car but I no send them. Even in the Toronto I don’t have a car. Rented an apartment 2 mins walk from a subway station / bus station and it’s serving me well. I no dey compete lol 4 Likes |
