oga leave before you regret will kill you latter.

sunkieisland:
If I were you with a master's degree and 8 professional certifications

I'm already in Canada

The truth is you are underutilized and underpaid

Calicoe:


Bro naija is too unpredictable and besides that, don't deny your future kids this great opportunity to become a citizen of a better country. If you don't want it for yourself, at least do it for them and they will be grateful to you

gentle70:

I'll be glad if you can help me as well Sir, I applied for NIS... I possess Bachelors Degree (Second Class Upper) and 4 Academic Research Papers published on reputable Local and International learned Journals. Life without job isn't encouraging as I'm totally depressed. Thanks in anticipation Sir.

Period007:

Ok.
Next time stop posting what ur not sure of

MrEgghead:
You asked a question and I explicitly answered you. I referenced properly...
The one I was sure of, I posted it for you to see.
I've not done anything wrong...And try to learn from people who may be well informed than you because nobody knows it all.

Period007:

Well informed than me u say?...bro I am a license health professional.The way u were confidently quoting those figures and still agueing as if ur in the system is misleading.

MrEgghead:
That's your problem.. You think you know it all...I told you a newly employed pharmacist earns 127k per month with pure evidence which I presumed you never knew and you still claim to know it all..
pls I don't have time for all these...

Period007:
Bro next time don't quote any figure ur not sure of

You asked why i didn't stay in Nigeria? I was ignorant like you at the time and don't have anybody to advise then. Dangote registered his business 2years after i left Nigeria. He never left Nigeria and so many others. Nobody will give you anything in America and I'm not trashing America just telling the structure that was set up over there. And it's a slavery system and i repeat it's a slavery system.

studentofTruth:


I can relate to what you have just said, especially the poverty-induced envy and jealousy. Presently, I live in fears. Since the people around me learned what I earn from my young online business, it's has been about bitterness- and jealousy-induced calumny. I just realized that living among lazy poor people is the most dangerous thing in this world.

I wonder how Linda Ikeji and Instablog coped in their early days.

@Op, with the kind of link you have to Canada, I really wonder what you're doing in Nigeria thinking of federal job — not as if you're even thinking of business. Canada straight!

TallNigerian:
Last month, they sent me a combined sum of N150k (that's over 500 CAD and almost twice my monthly salary) despite the lockdown over there. What exactly is your argument Sir? Thanks for your contribution still...

You should have stayed in Nigeria and work hard, you probably gave birth to your kids in America, why can't you give to them in Nigeria, or do you think we don't work hard in Nigeria, you went to a country that gave you a platform to make money and advance in your career, you are here telling young men who have no career, underpaid, right grossly abused in Nigeria, not to move to a better country when the opportunity come, but you moved while you got the opportunity.

Hypocrite and wicked human

America, London or Canada is a journey of no returns 90% to 95% of Nigerians in those countries will die over there do your research.
I'm really sorry for you because you don't know what you're talking about. Firstly, nobody is telling you not to move to U.S. or Canada or do i stop you from going to the embassy no.
Secondly, I'm not telling any young man not to travel, this is their prerogative. All I'm saying is do your research very well , find out what happened to Nigerians that left the country in the 70s, 80s,90s and 2000s.
Right now, 90% to 95% of Nigerians in London, U.S. or Canada will die over there because Nigeria is beyond their rich. They have no resources to relocate back to Nigeria. Ask anyone who have stayed in U.S. for over 20years or more.
These people were young like you when they left the country with the hope to make a better life for themselves. How many of these people have come back to contribute to the development of this country that you know?
Do you know is more easier to make money in Nigeria than U.S. or Canada, this is the message I'm trying pass on to the young people, instead of going to abroad to waste their time and 30years from now be regretting their actions.
If you're one of the poorest of the poor, that doesn't have any hope in Nigeria and you have opportunity to travel out the take the opportunity you might be one of the few lucky one. God bless your hustle.

jubrilELsudan:




EXACTLY MY ARGUMENT. ALL YOUR PEOPLE IN CANADA COMBINED THEIR ACCOUNTS TOGETHER AND ALL THEY COULD SEND YOU WAS JUST #150K. AND AM VERY SURE THAT IS EVEN THEIR LAST CARD.


NOW IMAGINE IF THEY WERE ALL BASED IN NIGERIA WITH GOOD PAYING JOBS, IF THEY WERE ALL TO SEND YOU MONEY COMBINED, WILL #150K BE THE BEST THEY CAN DO?

vulpeslopez:
contribute to the development of which country??oga, this country has no future......those people who left 30yrs ago are lucky.....wat did they forget??relocate back for wat?? R u talking about This Nigeria that we all are in.....or there is another Nigeria that i dont know about?

jojoseph:


I was about 19years old when i left Nigeria and i left because of education. At that time, we only have 4 universities in the country as a result some of us do not have a choice but to travel out of the country. My children were brought back to Nigeria and 3 of them finished thier secondary school education in Nigeria.
Hey, i pray for you IJN to grant you opportunity to travel to U.S. or Canada and in about 20 to 30years now, you will comprehend what I'm trying to convey to you. As I'm typing this message, I'm in Los Angeles stuck because of corona virus and i will be leaving once the boarders are opened. I will not even mind to sponsor you, just for you to go experience what I'm talking about.

JIREN01:
This has been my concern as well. I will be rounding up NYSC in a couple of month's time; few months into service year, I was able to get hold of some relevant info, which spurred me to test the waters of freelancing. Luckily enough for me, I succeeded and have been consistently raking nothing below 1000$ for the past few months; I earned above 2000$ at some point. The problem is living life after NYSC. I studied a medical-related course; however, no job in my field can afford to earn me my current earnings for a start; Heck, I'm even earning salaries of workers in managerial roles of multinationals. Given how primitive minded Nigerians are, especially the elderly civil servants, most of whom grin with envy when they see a young lad living the life. Most of them spent several years in service before they could afford a decent car (corolla sports) and a 3-bedroom flat built on loan, which they end up paying back through their noses for several decades.

jojoseph:


Please understand me very well,I'm not trying to discourage you, these people I'm talking about are my colleagues which i see every time i travel to U.S. Most of them are regretting that they left Nigeria, most of them could not come home for their parents funerals not that they don't want to come but they can't afford it.
You don't have to take my words, go and ask questions.
And anytime, i run into any young people like you, the first thing they complain about is that we didn't know this place is like this and i always tell them that if anybody tells you America you we say enemy of progress.
First, what do i have to gain from holding any young person back, i give the same advise to my boys anytime i visit U.S. I always tell them they are wasting their time in U.S. I didn't allow our last born to do university education in U.S. He did it Nigeria. He does visit his brothers and sisters in U.S. but doesn't like to stay more 2weeks because he sees the struggle that his siblings go through on daily basis.
You will not appreciate what I'm saying now but i pray to God to grant you your wish.

When Dangote registered his business, why can't you come back to Nigeria and follow his footstep, oh sorry you couldn't come back because you were in America working hard to make money, you forgot that Dangote's father was then the richest man in Africa, you forgot Dangote's uncle borrowed him 50,000 naira which is like 500,000,000 naira in today's economy, you forgot that he had back up, in Nigeria how many people enjoy 24/7 electricity and water, good roads, quality road and education, effective health care, but you come here to open your wide mouth to thrash a country that gave you the opportunity to advance your career..

See oga, if you no get better thing to talk, just keep shut..

oga,different stroke for difference folks.....i was born in the US to a diplomat father,who was an attache to the Nigeria Embassy...i was issue an American passport,social security number and birth certificate,came to Nigeria at 5years old,when i went to the US Embassy to renew my passport,i was told it was issued to me in error and cancelled....i didn't think of leaving Nigeria because life was rosy growing up,but now as an adult.....i am 33yrs old and i have made up my mind......This country is a messed.

AlphaT1:

As in no single job? Entry level for Rx in the civil service is grade level 10 (i.e 6yrs above BSc). Check the emolument for a GL 10 personnel with NNPC, NIMASA, DPR, content board (NCDMB) and co. ...forget their salary which may be 80k per month, they do this to disguise. Housing allowance 3m plus, furniture above 1m, productivity, leave, medical, 13th month, gas, kerosene, social club, festivity, education etc etc all sorts of allowances amounting to millions. Then there is the lump sum at beginning of the yr, ...DTAs for travels, training allowances.....almost all the children of managerial personnel in these juicy MDAs live and school abroad.....a $2000 salary cannot do this. They have properties all over Nigeria including Lagos Island......

JIREN01:
Nice hearing from you sir. Long time. I understand your viewpoint. Like I mentioned, I don't know of any job that can afford to pay me that high for a start in my field; consider enlightening me if there are any. I think the highest payers for young Rx are multinationals Rx companies, of which I'm quite sure they do not earn close to the aforementioned. An older friend of mine (12 yrs experience in sales) willing to switch to contract manufacturing who currently works for Novartis as a manager in the north does not earn that much. Not to linger on how difficult and almost impossible to get into those agencies you mentioned as a commoner, attaining managerial positions in those agencies take several decades. How has been the field sir?

TallNigerian:
it will turn out well

Exmilitant:
ha. no better way to express yourself other than cursing? Well, i have visited, France, the Uk, Holland, Dubai, Greece, Spain, the US, Canada, Brazil, China, India and more than 19 African countries and i still have more countries to visit and flex my life but i won't exchange living here with any of those coutries. For wishing me dead, i will leave the matter to my goddess.
