Wow just wow...I live in Finland myself and always visit Stockholm via Viking Cruise, I never knew it is like that there. This means that these are generally easier here in Finland, because e.g with our local drivers license from Naija, we can get Finnish temporary license immediately and after verification, the original can be obtained in some months...lol no wonder Finns don’t like Swedes one bit lol cheesy

All the same you can't use foreign country like sweden to compare Nigeria, you just can't the difference is too much, Nigeria is like a remote village sector in eyes of sweden... that is just it.. why they treat black like that in foreign countries because they see as blacks treat them self yeah they hate themselves that is why life in sweden for black is a bit hard hmm... check the news you will see..

Very true but don't forget we are Nigerians and then Africans, educated or not. I haven't forgotten the lessons I learnt while growing up. My parents weren't overly strict but once I was unruly to my dad and I got the severe trashing of my life. I didn't repeat that shit with him again. I don't advocate violence but if a child refuses to hear and has been warned severely and still refuses to hear then u bring out the big stick. Hopefully u only need to do so once for it to stick into the child's hear. Meanwhile while u are at it, be very careful cos they do check the bodies of child in schools and also during check ups in clinics.

I don't know but could the reason be that the Swedes are the king's of Scandinavia? Lol, those are not my words but those of a Swedish flame I had years back in my student days

What can i say? Poster most of the stuff you wrote are completely true but I have come to understand that it is not any better in Nigeria. Of course, if you have you money in Nigeria, you can get things done but there are certain aspect of life in Nigeria that make you wonder if life will ever gets better.

I have been living in Sweden for over 9 years now and I can tell you than it's much better here compare to Nigeria. Yes, there are rules and guide towards everything and the community isn't as interactive as what we have always enjoyed in Nigeria.

I can mention a bit of those good quality of life style here that makes it much better than Nigeria:
1. Free health care and dental care for kids from age 0-23
2. Strong labor union
3. Clean air
4. Good road network and transportation for all
5. Free education for its citizens and those on working permit.
6. Security of life and properties.
7. Monthly income from government if you have kids from 0 to 18 years of age.
8. Constant electricity unlike what we experience in nigeria today.
9. Ability to visit or live in other neighboring countries if you are a citizen and lots more

Even with this, you will agreed with me that not ever country has it all and there is not perfect system anywhere in the world. Of course, I very well understand your view of things but perspective towards life and where we find ourselves at times is a key towards having it better even in a system that doesn't favour or appeals to us


Bro, are the rules still same? Planning on coming on student visa and my kids come along with me, but there's discouragement here and there about it being a racist country and I might regret going. Won't mind guidance please �

Sweden may not be the best option for you, except you have enough funds. I mean enough funds. Because if you intend on working to survive with your kids, I cannot tell you how bad your situation will be. It’s just the truth.
Yes they get healthcare etc, but I’m talking about their daily feeding and general expenses.
and just so you know, getting a job in Sweden as a student is quite hard: I mean hard.
Firstly you must know Swedish. Even cleaning jobs require that because your fellow students are also competing for the position. So for you to have more advantage, you must know the language. Students don’t earn much at all.
You cannot even earn enough to cover one person living expenses not to talk of with kids. When it comes to post graduate job, you need good referral. Their not very racist but they use a referral system. If a connected Swedish person refers for a job, your life has been made.
Otherwise, you will struggle like the rest of the crowd and most likely end up doing menial jobs for a long time. You will also need to take SFI classes to better integrate into the society.
With kids? E go tough o.
Thanks for your advice �, God bless.

Be careful what you wish for...

Nigeria is not that hard believe me, and unless you experience the outside world yourself, you'll never value the freedom you have here as a first class citizen

So to you, you enjoy freedom in Nigeria? Why are you people always deceiving yourself? Which freedom are you enjoying in this shithole?

With all he has said, tell him to relocate to Nigeria he wouldn’t.

I am a Nigerian resident here in Norway and I would tell you that life here is what millions in Nigeria dream of.

No where there aren’t challenges as long as I get the basic necessities of life which you never lack in these countries.

Mind you Scandinavians have superior living standards than any part of the developed world.
