am a young boy of 23years,with the present state of the nation.i am thinking of moving out of the country to look for greener pastures.but am confused on the country to visit. any advice on the country I can travel to and work with less issues (work permit issues).

epobot:


Saudi Arabia, UAE ,Russia and Canada are d most lucrative with less racism. Read Travel page of Nairaland.Its loaded with experiences and suggestions.

justwise:

Is that a joke?

harlee:
please explain more

justwise:


If you are leaving Nigeria to any of those countries and racism is your major concern then don't bother going to any of those countries. Your life as a black man worth nothing to them especially as an illegal immigration which is what you will become as soon as your visiting visa expires

harlee:
ok thanks,do you have any idea on where I'd rather travel to with better economy

justwise:


There is no decent country with good economy you can just travel to work and live because you will not be able to get the visa.

harlee:
name them please

At 23 and looking for greener grass tells me or any immigration/visa officer that you have no family ties to Nigeria such as lucrative business, wife/kids, properties, good job/salary. Going to Europe at your age without concrete plan such as genuine business or school is a waste cux u might end up dealing with/in drugs. If you have first degree or someone that can sponsor you, I will recommend going as a student to any of those places I named above. That will put you in better shape both length of visa, more flexibility, you can open a bank account, get a driver license (most student in US and Canada now drive Uber/lyft) some deliver pizza. You are also permitted by law to work up to 20 hours a week on campus! And all that is if you go on a student visa. Visitors visa can't do those things I mentioned! Most you can is opening an account which is useless if you don't have a job or income to put in it.

Also, I read through your post/threads and in less than 2 months you seem to want to do everything! Don't make yourself jack of ALL trade and master of NONE. You want to buy a car, you want to start a business, you want to get a loan, you want to travel abroad. Guy, if you fail to plan, you already plan to fail. Sit down or sleep over what you really want to do. Chase your abroad dream with spare money like mmm oga advise lol. Any money invested in visa runs especially if someone or an agent is helping you is gone. You are only 23 and I like your strength and zeal to better yourself but do it carefully and smartly. If the car you bought is for business/transportation, give it at least a year and see how it go! Especially if you operate it yourself. If you rush into anything, you will rush out of it! Grass being greener on the other side depend on who dey look ohh. I live in USA and know people that I sometimes ask myself "whata fk are they doing here?" Bcox of their condition. So plan well so that you no go go one yeye place for Europe all in the name of travel out go marry your mama mate for docu! With school runs you go jam babes your age and if love happen, you carry go!! Good luck!

Sorry but you must start being realistic!

You have no money to apply for a school visa!
To say nothing of air ticket, school fees, accommodation and feeding. All this will run to millions of Naira!
Then you plan to become an illegal which means that IF you can ever get a job it will be small small wages.
Every moment you will be watching for police and immigration to send you home.

If you have no funds then make your plans to suit, look to other African countries to work in.
There are no magic solutions going to UK or USA as an illegal, only tears.

poster as grim as this sounds, its the truth. Most european countries and America are locking up because of all the terrorism fears and beyond that the world economy was slow so every native started complaining that immigrants are taking their jobs. These and other reasons has closed a lot of the loop holes people used to use. Right now the only way i know is if you meet a woman from where ever and she comes down to marry you and send you a spousal visa invitation. There is actually a TV show called 90 spouse . Anyway that's the easiest route people are using now. The only problem with that is, would you genuinely love the woman or are you going to hurt her in the long run.

justwise:


I don't want to believe that you meant that.

omega25red:
Like i said she would have to come marry him and go back home to apply for the spousal visa according to that tv show anyway

If you can find your way to France, you should have a go at the French Foreign Legion. It's an arm of the french military, but separate from them. Anyone is free to attempt the initial recruitment tests, passing it or not is a different matter. You don't need a visa to join.
