OBUKOMENA:
Good evening nairalanders! I hope you had a good day?

So, let me just go straight to my reason for opening this thread, and I hope I would be able to convey my thoughts impeccably:

It seems like some of our people who travelled to Germany aren't doing so well after all (I stand to be corrected, though!)
I have a friend over there whom I am preparing to go meet. This guy has been there since 2017. He hardly calls me on normal call. He would rather call on WhatsApp. Reason being so that he could get in touch cheaply. The first and only time I asked him to send me something, he told me pointblank he didn't have.
Just this afternoon, I heard a colleague's father just came back to Nigeria from there after 21 solid years! He had abandoned his wife and children here in Nigeria. If he was doing so well over there, would he not have arranged for his family to come over and stay with him - at least?


I have been worried, even before I heard this colleague's father thing: I don't know what I am going to meet at the friend's place; I don't know what life is like over there - how to cope in a non-English speaking environment. I don't know how long it's going to take me to make it over there and reconnect with my family. This news about my colleague's dad also increased my worries.

So, I decided I would come on here to ask: Aren't these red flags as regards traveling over there, especially with the hope that when i get there, after 2-3 years, I would bring in my family.
Anyone here knows about life in Germany?

Hey Buddy, I live in Germany and I am doing great. From your post, it is obvious you want to go to Germany without a purpose.

Thank you. Very entilled somebody.

Oduduwa707:
OP, you're indeed MADDD!

Na pple like you dey give Nigerians back in Nigeria bad name. Just see your stupid points... He calls on watsapp, didn;t send you money, blah, blah.

Why do you expect him to send someone like you money? Your entitlement attitude already stinks sef, I swear!

FYI... German has the biggest economy in Europe... so do the maths!

Lagos2canna:
Congratulations dear.........Is my prayer that Germany will favour you in Jesus Name

Amen

I see a lot of people have gained alot from this platform, I want to travel for my masters immediately after my service (Germany precisely).
I write to solicit the assistance of anyone with a comprehensive step by step guide I will need to achieve this dream of mine. I will be more than grateful if anyone with knowledge and experience.

Hey guys...
Godd morning

I was born after 1992 but my NPC birth certificate was issued to me in 2009, I hope it will still be admissible?

i tink NPC is valid from Nov 1992 till date. ( i stand to b corrected o). if you were born before this date, it is better you go with age declaration.

The date of issue does not matter.

OJM1:
Good morning, I sent a mail to the person that sent my admission letter she only confirmed via mail that enrollment and semester fee was received, no additional receipt was issued to me.

tell her you need a receipt, that u want to take it for your interview.

OJM1:
Okay, please can u share her email address have searched for it but didn't see it. thank you

i just noticed dat tamara is charged for some specific department but here is her email address tamara.kroll@th-deg.de , i will also suggest u send a mail to the person that send u your admission letter.

Nellso:
Good people,

Thank you.

OJM1:
Okay, for the semester fee payment what I have is the sepa receipt but i didn't get any confirmation from the school after sending my enrollment and payment receipt.
Please what do you think?
