Nigeria is not finished. Maybe you are.

People are still getting good jobs.

I consult for a financial institution in Nigeria on enterprise tech solution and I know young guys (between 24 to 27 years) getting jobs every week, travelling out on holiday to western world, balling big and coming back. They work remotely, enjoy their lives. Companies abroad headhunt most of them, and the bank keeps recruiting with good pay in Nigeria standard.

These guys go to any embassy and get visa. I witness it. These guys choose and pick jobs. Banks place them on special salary scale, different from the operations guys. They have enviable perks.

I am not talking about any dicks and harrys, I am talking about tech guys, which is my turf . Come to Island in Lagos and see for yourself.

So, if you are finished as an individual, there are some people killing it big in Nigeria, and hey, they are not politicians but they have skillsets which you lack.

UK has been good despite all the hurdles I had to scale through. I arrived UK on the 13th of September last year and God made a way for me to be housed by two Nigerians I barely know. One housed me for about 6months and the other for 3 months till I was able to secure my own accommodation. God has been faithful and it's a fact I really appreciate. I faced the school fees issues as well in fact my account was blocked and I couldn't submit my assessment but all those are stories to be told another day. Congratulations to you Op on your forthcoming graduation, mine will be in few months.

These guys easily go to any embassy and get visa. I witness it. These guys choose and pick jobs. Banks place them on special salary scale, different from the operations guys. They have enviable perks. Banks send them on trainings in western worlds and they never think of japa. They go and come back, even collect fat estacode.

And hey, how is Chile where you are slaving?

What advice do you have for someone planning to go to uk for phd with dependents?


@op and others

nairamaniac:
The system is built to make people succeed if they follow the right process.

Whereas, the system in Nigeria is built to make majority of the people fail, unless you obtain favour/mercy from the rich-class.

The prime minister over there cannot wake up one morning and say "subsidy is gone" and still remain in that seat after his declaration threw over 50% of the country into sufferings and austerity.

Congrats! The best thing to happen to any man now is for his life not to be dependent on Tinubu's decisions.

Honestly bro at last i was alright.. But some actually went back or sent back by school.

It's worthy to give thanks to God who made it possible its not by power or might or intelligent but just God

But op I fail to understand how you are winning, you sold landed properties and gave to white man in exchange for paper certificate. This is madness. And you say he was threatening to deport you back to your country if you did not pay him the fees. No be jibiti be that ? Oyinbo ti lu e ni jibiti

samuelson06:
Wow. I'm happy you didn't give up. I hope you still remember me. By the way, would you advise someone to sell his house worth 40M naira to come there? Can he make the money back within a year or two or can things go south and he loses both ways?

I see a dangerous trend and this is where most of you get it wrong.

You are too generalistic. Talk about yourself. Do not hide under others, as others can only explain their situation and case.

There are levels everywhere in the world. We can both be in the same country and ball differently.

Saying "Nigeria is finished" is silly and too generalistic. If it is finished for you, it is fine for some. To everyone his own.

Or because it is not well with you does not mean it is not well with others.

Some are in Western world, killing it big while some are barely making it. Life is about perspective. Someone living in Chelsea and Kensignton will have a different perspective from someone living in Dagenham. Walk on yourself and stand out.

Talk about your own!. Talk about what is responsible for your situation. Nigeria is not the problem of most people but their past decisions have caught up with them. Talk your own. Simple.
