Absolutely no. Good women deserved to be showered with kindness and love. Good wives are hard to find.

Abroad husbands will be back with their "innit" and "you know warra mean?"

If you want to be a homebased wife, the hour is upon you. You might get lucky and migrate to China or South.

Sorry OP. Look at the big picture. Even you will migrate if you see Visa now. Women are only luckier. Ours come on a platter of marriage- not to ancestors or foreign graves grin
I often notice in most of your comments the way you seem to always make a subtle swipe at the male folks.

I love the pictures you uploaded, is says a lot about the average Nigerian mentality. Meanwhile am not entirely sure if Nigerians have the backbone to demonstrate on the streets. the lack of mutual distrust and disunity caused by deep rooted ethnicity and religion is a major factor, poverty and illiteracy are also factors. And there is no end in sight for these things.

Therefore as I see it the elites will keep on enjoying the wealth of this country while the poor continue to live in penury and suffering.

And it just started. Although she went with her friends I knew and it has not happened much, why not tell me. Then after talking to her about it, she decided to even do more.

I might be paranoid about the whole thing but I never go anywhere without letting her know. It is impossible for me to plan to stay out without giving her the full details,
call her regularly about my movements.
its time to call it a day.

The fact that she goes out without telling you means there are lots of things you guys are yet to sort out. This relationship clearly lacks effective communication. You guys are in a toxic union.

okay thanks. Does that means after I study in any of the country. I'll automatically be a citizen there? Sorry for the inane question sir. Coz I do not want to come back to this country again. Maybe just for vacation.
You ain't alone man. Many ambitious youths are formulating plans on how to emigrate out of this shit hole. The country is a sinking ship, with a bleak future. However, You are on the right track, move now that you have the means , you will thank yourself in future because its a valuable investment not just for you but also for your kids...

As to your question YES. Upon completing your studies in Germany you would be given residence permit valid for 18 months to search for job. Jobs are abundant there, so its very highly likely you will secure one. Once you're working you can apply for permanent residence. After like 8 years you are ligible for citizenship.

Good luck.

other options are: Family reunion is also another route, then investment visa is available that is if you can invest millions of €€ in Germany, and I think there is also EU blue card given to skilled professionals who already have secured a job.

I think your best bet is the study route, I may be wrong.

TravelRe: Facts About Switzerland And Why They Are So Rich? by themaestro08(m): 1:58pm On Nov 28, 2019
Suspense12:
Many people think that Switzerland’s wealth is due to its status as a fiscal haven. But Panama, Cyprus, and the Republic of Liberia, are also fiscal havens.

Africa not only offers low taxes to international companies but also offers them capacity. However, countries in Africa remain in low income status while Switzerland remains one of the wealthiest countries in the world.

Not only this, all of Switzerland’s wealth comes without having natural resources and by not compromising on democracy and human rights. In fact Switzerland can boast one of the most egalitarian political systems in the world. Also, its welfare system is as good as that of Norway or Denmark.

In addition, its citizens not only have the right to vote every 4 years but every four months! The Swiss don’t just choose their leaders but they choose their policies with referendums happening several times a year. Switzerland has one of the world’s best political systems. Some argue that this is the reason as to why they are successful. In fact, the Swiss system is so good, that it could be a model for other countries. Here are some key aspects of it:

Decentralization

From a political standpoint, Switzerland is what is known as a confederation, and it is the only confederation that exists on the planet. It is made up of 26 states which are called cantons. The only thing that these cantons have in common are a constitution, foreign policy and a currency — aside from that they are totally different from one another. For instance, if you make a salary of 5,918USD and you live in the region of Jura, you are going to pay an income tax of 14 percent. But if you made the same amount of money and you live in the region of Zug, your income is only going to be 4%. If you have a shop in Geneva, you are going to have to close your shop at 6PM. But if you own a shop in Zurich you are free to keep your shop open for as many hours as you want.

The cantons can adjust their laws and pluralities as they see fit. What is more important is that they can compete with each other; this explains why in general the cantons have such low taxation.

Switzerland is so decentralized that they have four official languages; German, French, Italian and Romansh. When you visit Geneva which is in the French speaking part, you are not going to hear anyone speaking German. The billboards, road signs, and local newspapers are all in French. The same applies to Zurich with German or Lugano with Italian.

No head of government

Every country has a head of government who is responsible for certain things. Well, not Switzerland. Yet they are not living in anarchy. What they do is vote for a federal parliament which is similar to congress in the United States. This parliament then chooses seven (7) people who are going to become something like ministers or secretaries. All of these seven people have the same amount of power.

Each year one of them takes a turn becoming Switzerland’s international representative. Technically this person is the president of Switzerland but he or she does not have specific powers over the other 6 people. This is an important difference in the Swiss mentality because in other countries the president is a really powerful person but in Switzerland it is just a symbolic thing because the entire decision making is done by a team.

Flexible Democracy

The most important part of the Swiss political system is their referendums. Most of their laws are chosen by a popular vote, some at a federal level while others at a cantonal level. Proposal for a referendum requires only 50,000 signatures while one that’s going to amend the constitution requires 100,000 signatures. Other countries allow their population to have referendums too, for example Spain. But to seek a referendum in Spain requires 500,000 signatures, and they cannot do any referendums that can change the constitution.

Switzerland holds several referendums every single year. Every four months, the Swiss go to the polling stations and they will vote for any proposal that has been put forward in the previous four months. These polls usually have big turn outs of more than 60%.

Free market capitalism

It would be very easy for a populist, anti-capitalist leader to emerge in a system like this, right? Remarkably, Switzerland is to the free market what France is to the wine industry. Don’t forget that this country is geographically isolated by mountains and has practically no farming land. This means that it has had to sign free trade agreements with pretty much every country on earth.

It is undeniable that Switzerland is a commerce loving nation BUT no more so than the European Union. The Swiss actually subsidize their agriculture as much as the Europeans or the Americans do — yet they also participate in the same trade embargoes that exist with Iran and Russia. The only difference is that Switzerland has embraced free trade since 1874 while the rest of the world has been doing it for the last few decades.

Neutrality in global affairs

Switzerland will not participate in any armed conflicts, making it one of the few neutral countries in the world. They even stayed out in the Second World War despite most of the population being against Hitler. While the rest of the Europe ripped itself apart, killing millions and spending billions in reconstruction, Switzerland didn't and they used all their savings to improve their system.

Switzerland does have a military, but this army is entirely defensive and will only be used to expell external attacks. It will never be used to fight in anything outside of self-defense. This is where we see one of the few drawbacks of the Swiss system — the military or should we say…. their militia.

The drawback, of course, is not that they won't attack anyone. It is that every Swiss citizen must spend one month, of every single year, from age 18 to age 30, serving in the military. Even after this service period they must keep a gun at home. Plenty of people argue that this system is good with pundits saying it creates more entrepreneurs and less economic disparity. It is during this time in the military that the rich and poor are mixing together. Several startups and companies have been created from relationships that were formed while people were serving in the military.

The big question is… What about the freedom to choose? Should government force you to work in a place that you may not want to work?

Ease of doing business

This is another area where Switzerland shines. Despite the differences from one Canton to another, Switzerland has very low taxation overall. The laws to start a company are straight forward. Anyone can see those laws by just going online. Switzerland is one of the most transparent countries in the world which has encouraged a lot of international companies to establish their fiscal residence in Switzerland. But it's also very easy for Swiss people, living in Switzerland, to set up their own company

Banks do make up a large part of the Swiss economy but it probably not as much as people think. There are many other industries in Switzerland including Logitech, Nestle, and Norvatis. They are among the most popular companies in the world.

All of this is being done in a country with a population that is smaller than New York city's. Switzerland perfectly embodies[b][/b] the argument that it is not the country’s natural resources or luck to determine a country’s success but rather its systems of government and institutions that do this.[b][/b]

The Swiss have a lot to teach Africa in this regard.
Exactly what I have been saying.

Best country is subjective. And if your plan is to migrate via legal route then it will cost hundreds of thousands or even millions depending on the country. Germany, UAE and most European countries are good options.

Modified; Germany is your best bet. Most of it public universities are tuition free. And you will be given 18 months post-study residence permit so you could get a good job. Though it will come at a cost - the whole process may likely to cost you around 5-5.2 million naira. But it absolutely worth it.

Good luck.

Its obvious you understand the western system. And you know what they do? They will place a dialysis company close to each neighbourhood to help make more money from you once their food has messed up your kidney. The West has its good side but you need to understand the system to be ahead.
Atimes the way you guys reason is somewhat ridiculous. Almost All the processed foods one need could be gotten here in Nigeria as well, I think its matter of lifestyle, taste and preference the number of people opting for healthy food is growing due to the awareness and enlightenment there. I know lots of Nigerians who's half of their diet is composed of unhealthy, processed foods.

Therefore your argument is null and void.

Every country has its good and bad sides, no doubt. But obviously some are miles ahead of others. Its either we acknowledge our problems and address them holisticly or continue to live in self-deception and denial.

Gentlemen don't stress much when it comes to dating: sure I will approach you if I find you attractive, the outcome is either you me accept or decline, if its the latter I will politely walk away and never look back for the rest of my life. I have a great deal of self-confidence in me thus I know that the right person will come at the right time.

It pains me whenever I see a guy tolerating disrespect all in the name of dating. If she say no dump her and move on. There lot and lot of better ones out there.

A woman's biggest weapon is attention. Strip it and you are likely to earn her respect and admiration. On the other hand give her too much attention and she will disrespect and toy with you.

The amount of attention you guys give to this girls is top of the roof reason for their misbehavior.
