Look, this is my advice for Nigerians in Canada and those who are on their way there. I wish you the best in Canada .

1. Don't compete for office jobs with white Canadians and other white immigrants.
2. Focus on Blue Collar jobs like Plumbing, Gas Engineering, Carpentry, House Building, Painting of Houses, Cleaning Business e,g Cleaning Homes, Offices and Restaurants in a Professional Way. Get some basic skills in Carpentry and Plumbing before leaving Nigeria. You can also learn cake making and catering before leaving Naija. All these Vocational jobs are a GOLDMINE in Canada .
3. Try as much as possible to be Self Employed or own your Business. You will make more money that way.
4. Learn how to buy and sell things on Ebay Canada and Kijiji. Kijiji is local to Canada. You can also sell on Ebay.com to Americans while you are in Canada.
5. Engage in Business as soon as you can save up some money. Don't work for others after 2 years in Canada.
6. Look for what you can get in Canada cheaply and ship them by Sea to Nigeria. Sell these things and make money from them. Handsome money can be made this way.
7. Don't live in the crowded Provinces like Ontario or Alberta in Canada. Go to Provinces like Manitoba, Quebec or Prince Edward Island and start a Cleaning or Carpentry Business there. Cleaning business can make you a FORTUNE.
8. Trust in God and Jesus Christ .
9. With your Canadian Passport, you should be travelling to Asia to source for products you can sell in Canada and the USA.
10. There are some dirty jobs and odd jobs that can make you serious money in Canada. Remember, BILLS are high in Canada. House Rent is HIGH and taxes are not low. Go to a Province where you can get cheap housing. And start a business in that Province.
11. Lastly, log on to YOUTUBE.COM and watch interviews granted by Mike Rowe. He does a lot of Dirty Jobs and he makes lots of money from them. Have the Mike Rowe Mentality.

Cheers .

this your opinion no follow at all. Make I leave white collar because na white man get am, go dey do boy boy.

Is an achievement

If everyone runs away from Nigeria who will stay and fix Nigeria?

Here is me thinking of relocating to Nigeria soon.

FinianIb:
I remember one time, I was talking to a Nigerian born American complaining about how bad the economy is and so on, he just smiled and said this "you don't know how bad Nigeria is till you leave it" then he said " if you say Nigerian economy is shambolic, you are praising it"

True talk.

Absolutely! Brain drain eventually all that would be left in Nigeria would be dumbos and criminals. The Canadians are smart.

It is brain drain but many who are left in Nigeria are still very smart and not dumb or criminals. We all have friends and classmates from secondary school and university who are back in Nigeria and we know that they are very smart and capable or working here successfully, but for one reason or another, still live in Nigeria and many are doing well.

Who go help me comot ooooo...

BigDawsNet:
I don't know much about the Carribeans or any other part....

I pray they come easy for you...

Amen, thanks a lot

who is aspiring to travel to Canada this year please signify .

meobizy:
It takes x amount of Nigerians to destroy the system there. The place is getting too full of our brothers, I would check elsewhere.

the moment the % of nigerians and africans in canada becomes very high, canada will become Africa.

Truth is the Nigerian society is tailored perfectly for dumbos and criminals.
Look at how brainy innovative people are treated. The only talented people that are celebrated are musicians amd even those ones they are celebrated because they are hired to sing the praises of crooks

Kriss216:

Hahahaha, very funny of u shall

planetx:
Highly educated people to do jobs that white Canadians will not do with the excuse of Canadian experience and education, you people are being played big time. It is only in Canada you will see a foreign doctor driving a taxi while the Canadian system string him along about getting the necessary prerequisites to practice until 10 years later he has forgotten how to practice medicine again.

i know a lot of Nigerians with good jobs, it may be tough initially. For the doctors in 2 years he can get his license. There is also uk option for doctors. I work in the same industry as u was in Nigeria, they even gave me a higher level

Never voted for him abeg. I never liked him.

Eriokanmi:
Come back 15 years later and share your Canada experience with us young man . But when you come back, hope you'd not hide when you see your friends and mates you left behind Progress .

Nigeria is a land of opportunities to only those who have the inner eyes to see one. Nothing can ever make me take such a decision of relocating. If you want to go, bye-bye but you'd spot the difference in later years if you choose to remain there . Why not apply same spirit on developing yourself here? Go there for studies and come back with opportunities. I'd like to cite a few examples below on some of us who came back, against all odds.

1- I've been around the globe, even acquired certificates, up to 4 different ones and some training skills in amazing facilities. I came back with an opportunity which is seriously proferring solutions to our problems in Nigeria. No manager in the leading oil and gas company in Nigeria can match my worth...no be bragging matter. I don hobnob with world leaders, including Barack Obama. I'd have regretted it, had I stayed back.

2-Anyone who goes to one of the old generation banks would see an inverter with battery banks on one side of their banking hall, powering their atms... its as a result of an innovation brought home by my uncle. He left union bank for Atlanta in the 90s, got employed at Walmart as stores officer. One day, as he was going home branched at a newspaper vendor( a mexican) booth to read papers as usual and there he spotted an Inverter company located in Arlington. I'm mentioning it as it is so people could check it out. Its called Trace Engineering, later changed their name to Xantrex. He applied to them to be their rep in Nigeria to solve the epileptic power supply in critical sectors but they refused his application for 3 reasons. One, that the product was new to Africa and 2ndly, that being black, it would be impossible to convince his people on adopting the technology. 3rdly, that they weren't ready to expand beyond the shores of America as at that time. He felt disappointed. 2 months later, they called and told him they had reconsidered his application and invited him for 2 weeks training after which he was asked to come to Nigeria with demos to show to his prospects.

Long story cut short, his friends of Nigerian decent blasted him, they said his village people had come calling. He summoned courage and left America with almost nothing. On getting home, he started from his 1-room apartment he left behind. He went to companies, the CBN and other places in government too. CBN told him they had constant power supply with 3 standby automatic switch generators so, they'd not need his ideas. He told them but its free, they now allowed him to install one at their IT dept. 6 months later they had issues with their generators as there were a major power outage from national grid so they over fired the generators. They all packed up within same time. They had to order parts from abroad but then they needed to keep their IT dept running to prevent loss of files. The moment the 3rd gen stopped , all the directors were panicking, rushed to the IT room only to find out that the staff were working as normal with lights on. The called my uncle over, thanked him for saving them a major disaster and gave him a contract to install the inverter on all the CBN branches nationwide. Shortly after that, the atm revolution came and CBN recommended this man to all banks starting from the old generation banks...this man won a global distributor of the year 4 times and was invited with family to the USA for an award each time. His colleagues back then can't even near him in anything. Rather he gives them money on each visit. If you want to go...go and school or you spend a little time and while you're there, study the environment, study our challenges back home and you'd not regret leaving for home ultimately.

A friend is talking with sanwoolu on ocean transport from ikorodu to lagos Island now and discussion is at advanced stage . He's worked with a similar company abroad for some years now and now he wants to tap into the opportunity and the company is ready to fund this project 100%. When you see his private jets or copter hovering ahead of you tomorrow you see him on forbes list, don't say money why...while working in the biting cold over there.

Kenny and D1 would have stayed put and remained stagnated. See the duos balling today. Their contribution to the entertainment industry is invaluable. These are the people we know. There are several other successful guys out there who took a similar decision.

My 50cents had been given...

I enjoyed your write up and I do agree with your assumptions.
Opportunities abound everywhere and I also know similar success stories of guys that relocated to Nigeria and making it big time.

Oya now

I was just being sacarstic, there are still many educated Nigerians in Nigeria you may think, but for how long will they stay successful or doing well as you put it? Eventually the system will begin to frustrate them or their efforts. Anyone who claims to be educated and still lives in Nigeria is not educated or just deceiving themselves, maybe educated to nigerian standards. The ones who are really educated would not fit in with Nigerian system, hence their vast migrations to europe or Canada.

Nigerians and their herd mentality and abroad-is-heaven mentality.

There is much more money to be made in a developing economy than a developed economy.

But only few understands this.

It is not all about money.

How to Move or Relocate to New Zealand

Thousands of people from around the world head out to New Zealand every year in order to live and work there, making the country a popular expat destination. This InterNations GO! guide offers advice on moving to New Zealand, including information on the economy, visa regulations, and more.
Relocating to New Zealand

At a Glance:

New Zealand was among the best performing industrialized economies in 2016, but also one of the most expensive countries as a result of their reliance on international trade.

The country’s bigger cities are most popular with expats, especially Auckland, Christchurch, and the capital Wellington.

Finding a job as an expert in New Zealand can be quite challenging, but if your field of expertise is on the government’s skills shortage list you’ll be in high demand.

Depending on your country of origin, you may be able to travel to New Zealand as a temporary visitor without a visa for up to 3 months. Taking up any kind of employment, however, requires a work permit.

If you are a highly skilled worker, you could be granted permission to settle as a permanent resident. The three requirements are good health, good character, and good English language skills.

New Zealand remains a popular destination for potential expatriates, and many of those considering a move to New Zealand are attracted by the country’s high quality of living, welcoming attitude towards foreigners, and spectacular scenery.

New Zealand has long been popular among those who appreciate the great outdoors. The diverse natural attractions range from beautiful coasts and beaches, to vast forests, deep blue lakes, active volcanoes, and majestic glaciers. Enjoying nature’s beauty will be part of your everyday life in New Zealand. But rest assured: If you are not a fan of bungee jumping, hiking, or paragliding, there will still be plenty of other ways to enjoy yourself after moving there.

Thriving on Tourism and International Trade

The strongest sectors in New Zealand are agriculture, food and beverages, health, and knowledge-intensive services. There are great job opportunities for expats moving to New Zealand, especially for those with strong professional skills in these fields. In addition, tourism plays a vital role in New Zealand’s economy and positively affects other sectors, for example hospitality. The manufacturing and high-tech sectors, on the other hand, are relatively small.

Even though exporting agricultural products and tourism are very profitable, they make the country highly dependent on international trade. China for example, is the top export customer for New Zealand, primarily importing dairy and wood products. Fluctuations in the Chinese economy therefore have a big impact on New Zealand, though China’s growth rate is set to continue its recovery in 2017.

Finding Your Dream Job in New Zealand

Finding a job is not particularly easy in New Zealand, especially for foreign workers. Nevertheless, for those who not only have the required skills but also the right amount of determination, finding employment in New Zealand is still an attainable goal.

The number of people in the labor force has grown over the last couple of years, and this has had a positive benefit on New Zealand’s’ economy. The unemployment rate has been stable and is currently at 5.2%. According to the International Monetary Fund, New Zealand ranks 35th worldwide in terms of GDP per capita. Most of the population have a moderate income and expat salaries might be lower than you expect. On the other hand, the cost of living is also likely to be lower than your home country.

Expat Destinations: From Countryside to City

Unless expats are moving to New Zealand specifically to enjoy the solitude of the country’s wilderness, like 90% of the country’s population they will most likely end up living in one of the bigger cities.

The majority of expatriates moving to New Zealand make Auckland or Wellington their home — two of the country’s largest cities, which are both continually ranked among the world’s most livable cities in international surveys. In 2016, Auckland was voted the 3rd most livable city according to the Mercer Quality of Living Survey, taking into consideration factors such as safety, education, hygiene, healthcare, and the environment

Tats:
When people visit overseas from Nigeria for a brief period, most of them stay with family, relatives, in-laws or friends that they know.
Their perspective of the place is usually based on what they experience - Where the person they are staying with lives, what work they do, what kind of friends they have (as they would usually go out with their host), etc. If the person is a professional with a good job & is well paid, lives in a nice area and has friends of similar status, their perspective of the place is good. Otherwise, it is not so good.

Learn in that short period

And remember if they are struggling doesn't mean you will to...


Just have to make the decisions maybe you ready or not

When una jaapaa finish, una go on go spoil that place.
