Don't be deceived by any trajectory, can majority of their citizens even afford to buy plane ticket to the Uk.

Blacks in that country are poor, many live in shanties and work as labourers in white farms.

The only reason why their passport is given 6 months in the UK is because of the whites.
There are only 152,000 whites in Namibia out of a population of 2.6 million. No one has classified them as a first world country in terms of development.
It is falsehood and mischief to say the rest of the 2.5 million blacks living in the country are poor.

Look at the trajectory of the GDP per capital for Namibia and Botswana. There is a reason why UK grants their citizens visa free travel for 6 months.
You should know the kind of people worthy of engaging here.
Describing Botswana and Namibia as small countries grin

Go online and search for their local news paper it will give you a portrayal of the country.

I have even watched a DW documentary of namibia and the inequality gap between whites and blacks and how the whites have gotten all the good lands for agriculture and left the desert for the blacks

I have also met black Namibians, sorry an average Nigerian is better off than them.

Don't be deceived by PR of a country, even you so called Rwanda, a Nigerian who visited there was disappointed, lot of untarred roads

We don't make assumptions based on documentaries, but based on statistics. The poverty rate in Namibia is only 33.7% compared to Nigeria's poverty rate of 61% according to the The National Bureau of Statistics.

In terms of governance they rank higher in the corruption index,access to portable water,healthcare,electricity,road network.

We argue based on facts and not sentiments.

Nigeria is a poverty capital of the world with the most corrupt politicians. And you say Namibia is worse off huhI am not understanding-every statistic from world bodies such a[/b]s World Bank,World Economic Forum state Namibia is better off than Nigeria in all developmental indices and that is a fact that can't be disputed.

[b]The link you posted even verified the information I stated earlier the poverty rate in Namibia is close to 33.7%.
Namibia like other countries prosperty has not reach a segment of the population. However, the inequality pales in comparison to Nigeria with a poverty rate of 61%.

Namibia isn't better off than Nigeria, Namibia is a crime infested society, black Namibian are poor.

You can keep bringing your world bank statistics. All statistics are gotten from official govt data

Lastly, Nigeria isn't the poverty capital of the world, there are many poor people in China, India and Indonesia than in Nigeria.

Let us compare and contrast:

Can you please point where Nigeria fares better than Namibia:

Human Rights
Corruption
Road Network
Electricity
Terrorism
Tourism
Healthcare
Unemployment
Education
Life expectancy
Security


Sorry to say but you suffer delusions of grandeur.

Ohh come on, Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world, its validated fact. (Argue and i will put too many sources in this thread).
And you are comparing with China and India?? Countries of 1.4, 1.5 Billion people??
Ever visited outside of your village? Ask them who has visited China and India.

Until you acknowledge how you will improve? fake chest thumping, SMH

It is better than Nigerian, but hard to get legal papers to work.
Re: Beautiful City of Windhoek,Namibia by Goodman247:
Ok
Re: Beautiful City of Windhoek,Namibia by Nobody: 8:23pm On Jan 09, 2021

Which is easier to get legal papers, Botswana or Namibia
In Botswana you can buy you way to obtaining permanent residence. Namibia has a longer path to obtaining permanent residency.

Hello RuudVanNisteroy

Have been following this thread for a while now and have seen how you’ve contributed to keep this thread awake... Thanks a lot

I want to study in University of Namibia but after searching online to get information, I couldn’t get first hand information about what to do or where to start from.

Am 19 and I don’t want to study in Nigeria, Reasons are ASUU and Poor Curriculum..

I don’t know if you stay in Namibia, If yes please what will I be needing to get started I want to get out of this country as fast as I can to school in Namibia this year...

Do the country allow student work while studying?
Are there any student job to do while studying?
As a graphic designer, Can I make a living while studying in Namibia?

Please I need first hand information on what to do, currently am processing my passport which I will be going to pick up at Ikoyi tomorrow.. pls help me with information on what I will be doing to gain admission into this university...

Better still if you want me to private chat you or send you an email sir/ma please and please let me know...

Everything about this country is making me sick and am too young for all this...

Thanks
I have advised all my friends to find a way to leave Nigeria and obtain permanent residence in a peaceful and orderly society for the sake of their children.

They are looking for rich Nigerians. If you have the funds to setup a business and provide employment to Nambians they will welcome you with open arms.
