I stopped reading the moment you mentioned the bolded. Student loan ? For real!!! That's an advantage you can think of ?

How about you ask those that collected those loan to give u first hand aftermath experience...

And talking of health care, u better be talking of other countries other than US...
And healthcare ain't free in UK, u'll pay for that stuff right before you leave Nigeria...

Healthcare is free in Nigeria also if you are under NHIS.... University students in Nigeria are enjoying free healthcare.... Goverment workers are enjoying free healthcare.....
Maybe read properly next time

It says
1. Local reduced fees
2. Scholarships ( I'm sure you've read of Nigerians offered over 7 scholarships worth millions of dollars to multiple ivy leagues in the US here on nairaland)
3. Or even....scholarships. ( yes, they are available as an oprion if you want. Some use it to buy new cars or just live large in school; but it's available. Gbajabiamila just introduced it as legislature under consideration for nigeria, if it wasn't an advantage why would nigeria seek to adopt it?)

Talking from experience,
A professor I know just sent her daughter to university of Kingston, London... half of her school fees have been paid for as tuition deposit. She doesnt do any Job other than study, the professor is sending her 1k£ per month for upkeep....

In summary, Nigerian professors are living pretty decent lives. A typical professor have 100% chance of relocating abroad, but they don’t.... They have there reasons.....

I could remember when I was in my 300L in University of ibadan, junior lecturer that just came few weeks ago have started riding highlander... few weeks after, she went to Canada for research....
Many professors go on holiday in abroad like they are travelling inter-state....

In summary, Nigerian professors cannot be oppressed, these guys are money bags but just pretending to be broke...
You will be very wrong if you think a professional in abroad is better than them
A Nigerian with a green card gets to pay local fees or even free schorlarship based for their kids with study loans to foot all the bills and don't have to give the child any kobo unless they want to.

You see the difference?

Car na pure water here. Walk into any dealership with just good credit amd a regular source of income and you'll drive out a brand new car.

Travel? You're already abroad so just drive or fly to all the world famous spots. And go to naija for Christmas like igbos do

Healthcare is free in the UK, same place your president buhari goes for treatment

The lecturer in naija sometimes has to sell handouts illegally, take bribes for marks etc

A professor's salary is 400 to 500k naira. So your prof sending 1k$ to the daughter monthly has another source of income not just salary

There's no justification for bad governance

iPhone is the best maybe na fake iPhone you Dey buy my iPhone 14 run smooth and does not get hot and crash it’s the best phone ever
I use both
I didn’t say iPhone crashes, I say apps crash on iPhones. Know the difference

And I live where iPhone has its headquarters, so I don’t know how more authentic my phones can get than that
PhonesRe: What Is The Best Phone You Used And Enjoyed So Far? by Yankee101: 3:15pm On Dec 27, 2022
Samsung S series is the best set of phones made till date

Much more better than IPhones

iPhones get hot and Apps crash when intensely used. Samsung na number one, apple just copies after them

Collecting minimum wage in UK cannot make u better than a Nigerian professor. Dead that illiterate mentality....
You will hardly see a professor that have not traveled out for research to Europe....
The mistake you’re making is assuming Naija person go remain for minimum wage abroad forever

When (even professionals) travel abroad they don’t have the requisite proper certificates to practice. A doctor needs to write certain exams and pass, a lawyer has to be called to the bar in that country, an IT guy may need certain certifications etc, so they resort to jobs requiring no qualifications until they finish their masters abroad or get the necessary certification. So las las them go pay several professors salary

The best bet is to get all your certifications and pass your exams before your travel so you can start job hunting for a professional place or even get employment before you leave. The washing scenario was the least possible case option, barring homelessness, illness etc
TravelRe: Is Relocation Abroad The New Success? by Yankee101:
It’s being in an environment that gives you opportunities to succeed

Imagine he bought the property during Goodluck at 7.5mN, today it will be worth 2mN in reality (adjust for inflation and devaluation)

But Someone that cleans nyash (sorry I don’t use such crass words but have to say it exactly as it is) in the UK makes more than a professor in Nigeria
