What are you still waiting for ![](/faces/huh.png) of course i'm optimistic that all the killings and kidnappings will stop one day but nigeria is damn overpopulated, the government can't take care of us, we better start finding alternatives. If you have enough funds, go to any developed western country through Masters route then look for job there, i believe with you skill set you will land a job that will enable you move with your family, just that you might have to go alone first. |
Programming / Re: I Want To Go Into Tech; What Field Should I Choose? by babakb: 7:18am On Jun 03, 2022 |
Fr4nk: I don't mean to be off topic, but what can we actually do to kill the hype around tech, I think it's unsettling that a lot of people are migrating into tech careers just for the pay, I mean, it would be nice to come across a Nigerian doing research and developing some cutting edge advancement in tech, who knows, maybe if we had more people like that, technological innovation could be one of those things that would make Nigerian Standout just like Music has done.
I don't know if this makes any sense but, its on here anyway There is no way the hype around Tech can be killed or ignored, Do you know that there are over a hundred In demand skills in Tech? Do you know the comfort you get for working Remotely for companies abroad? Do you know that there are multiple opportunities for being a successful entrepreneur in Tech? Do you know that there are many developed countries out there that have approved Digital Nomad Visa to attract Tech professionals around the world? Do you know that "John Oseni" a 16 years old Nigerian was recently hired by an Italian company as Senior Developer with just 2 years experience? I personally think the Tech Industry is actually under hyped, I will keep singing the song to as many youth as possible to switch to Tech, I'm 38 years but the Tech train will not leave me behind ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) I just singed for a Web Development and Automation classes, I don't care if the industry becomes saturated, I'm positive, I believe I'm that lost diamond that will always shine in the midst of the desert ![wink](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/wink.png) 8 Likes |

dasparrow: Something is fishy about this so-called deal. Why will Rwanda allow all sorts of so-called refugees into their country? And its not as if they will be returned to their countries of origin. They are supposed to become integrated into the Rwandan society if Britain does not accept them. How is this supposed to work?
These folks that are coming in boats to Britain are not seeking to live in Rwanda. They are seeking to live in Britain. What kinda jobs does Rwanda have for these asylum seekers when they are forcefully sent to Rwanda and then forced to live in Rwanda against their will if their asylum request to live in Britain gets denied? What if these asylum seekers are forced into hard labor in Rwanda against their will?
There is nothing good about this deal if you ask me. Are they also going to be sending middle eastern asylum seekers to Rwanda too so that they will bring terrorism to that country and destabilize it like Nigeria has become destabilized? Let us ask ourselves some critical questions please. God help Africa ooo and help our leaders to make decisions that will not come back to harm us Africans in the future. Hmmm. You lost your will the moment you decide to become an Asylum Seeker, I don't blame the UK government for this move.

Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Liberia and Gambia are all English speaking. Official language was changed in Rwanda to English. Many of my Kenyan friends in Europe eventually went back to Kenya and all found lucrative jobs. 1 ghana cedis is N50..... this is a great country next door. Cfa franc has similar value to naira.
For vacation so many spots in Nigeria, dar el Salam (Tanzania) and Morocco etc...
My point is many times the good we seek is in our backyard but we don't know.
And I hv to reiterate I'm not trying to persuade ppl from going to America.... I'm just saying we should also give African destinations consideration.
Finally French is easy to learn.
We are on the same page, all I'm saying is learning French or Arabic will give more and quick opportunities. It's not easy going to an English speaking African country for employment because you will compete with their Citizens who stand a better chance ahead of you, But if you're Billingual you will be a hot cake in Africa. Nigerians should get off their lazy assess and learn French and Arabic so that they can enjoy Africa. Note: French is not easy but you won't understand until you start learning it.

Ur not correct (sorry to say)....the core objective of colonisation was not theft of resources but rather to systematically convince or indoctrinate Africans to think less of themselves and we can see the intergenerational effects of this indoctrination today. Majority of Africans regard Europeans as god.
Simply put Europeans esp French white get those jobs because Africans give it to them even though they not fully qualified but becos deep down they believe the i.e. the Europeans are superior. Guy let's talk reality please, if you can't speak French can you work in Togo, Benin Republic, Burkina Faso, Rwanda, Morocco, Algeria Ivory Coast etc? |

@BigBashiru, What I expect you to discuss here is the employability of Nigerians in other African Countries. Whether we like it or not, the Americans, Europeans and Asians that are securing top jobs in Africa upskilled themselves and out competed us, and we have been very lazy to catch up with them here, we prefer to go to their Countries to take the lesser jobs they rejected ![angry](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/angry.png) As a Nigerian, if you want to be employable across Africa and take up top jobs, you must at the very least: Hold a Bachelors Degree Have a minimum of three years working experience Speak English, French and Arabic Fluently Be Skilled in Data Analysis Have Project Management Skills and Certifications. For STEM professions, have the required license to practice. The non Africans taking up Jobs in Africa came in very prepared, they are not joking. 1 Like |

FrenchXpert: Campus France is an organization set up by the French government to aid students through their France study application. They are available in over 150 countries across the world. Here in Nigeria, there are two Campus France offices, in Abuja and Lagos. Very pertinent to note is that you MUST pass through Campus France for any study application to France. They take care of all processes from admission down to obtaining your visa. website: https://www.nigeria.campusfrance.org/
Etudes en France: This is an online portal connected to Campus France where you create an account and have your personal dashboard for all online processes. Campus France is the physical organization; Etudes-en-France is their online platform. website: https://pastel.diplomatie.gouv.fr/etudesenfrance/dyn/public/authentification/login.html?codeLangue=EN
The entrance for 2022 began in October and closes 31st December, 2021. Within this period, you make your application to the universities through the portal. A few years back, you could apply directly to schools, now, only a handful of schools permit you to apply directly to their school portal. Applications on school portals are solely reserved for French Nationals and European students.
A great usefulness of Campus France is that they afford you the chance to apply to up to 7 universities with just one application. This increases your chance of being admitted to at least one. They however charge an administration fee of N50,000.
If you managed to get an admission directly from a school, you will have to manually connect your admission to Campus France and pay the same administration fee.
