Please I’ve been thinking about this since last year. I teach here In Nigeria. I can’t afford to go to the western or Asian countries but I think I can be able to save to move to Gabon to atleast teach.

I’ve checked their minimum wage, unemployment rate and their exchange rate snd I think it’s better off than Nigeria. Please advise me. I’m still single and in my mid 30s.

Is it worth taking a try? I know no one there.

I am willing to take the risk to go look for a job there with what I’ve saved so far. I’m projecting 500k.

Please I honestly and sincerely need your advice

Theres not much to lose. I would advise you do some preliminary findings though. Join gabonese groups on facebook and seek information. Check their job boards, check school websites and mail the proprietors or connect to them on linkedin. Ask to know what prospects you have with your qualifications and experience.

Look out for other nigerians in Gabon or anyone who can receive you and show you around town for your first few weeks. Look for churhces there as well and connect. Finally, you should definitely have an exit strategy if things do not work out as planned.

This way your risk is calculated. Good luck

dont bother about hostility. The problem with nigerians is that we go to other countries and cause problems for them. We dont like integrating with their culture and climate. Always try to scam or out do them.

Exchange rate is not a good judgement of a country's economy.

Nigeria is still the cheapest country to live in, in Sub Saharan Africa.

You won't appreciate Nigeria until you go to other African countries.

Use that money to start a business or go to school of nursing or masters and apply to teach in their Universities! It is better than going to any African country to teach secondary school students.

I don’t want to do business in Nigeria. I just want to shift and change my environment. It helps in healing a lot of psychological problems. Everything is not business. I just want peace of mind and a happy life.

@op.
i will advise you follow your heart by trying another land. all you need is to do your research well.

since you are a graduate of mech Engine, you should be very good in teaching mathematics or physics. the teachers of science subjectsi are hot cakes in some African countries.

I'm presently in Cote D'Ivoire though not for teaching jobs.
kindly contact me via my signature. God will help us

Marjoribanks:
I understand you, my brother!
Who knows maybe your movement to one of this Francophone countries will ease your movement to France/Belgium.
Make sure you take French classes online/youtube before going!
Also as a mechanical engineer, please make sure you know how to physically repair cars. Such skills comes handy in most African countries. You might just be one of Gabon greatest resource (Car dealership and University Professor). Our certificate comes in high regard in those countries!

I wish you well, my brother!
