Yes but not immediately,I will first save and move my family,make sure they are well established there,and later join them for my sanity.

Nigeria is crazy right now.

You may actually be better of in Nigeria. Note I said 'May'

Don't rush, build yr self, build yr own companies, become CEO and later go for visit and finally move yr family there.

No need. Stay in Nigeria and go for vacation abroad.

Japa as what? If its student visa hell no. If its PR or work permit hell yes

easy fr mouth

of ocurse it pays to stay back but you forfeit opportunies of getting a PR though. Moving your family isn't as simple, you need lots of funds which 1.2m monthly may not cover. What if you get sacked or your business faces a downturn?

At least with a student job, you should still be able to save half of that amount monthly if you get your full 80 hours.

I can only risk it if am a remote worker.
You will save more here and spend more abroad
Depending on your family size you can travel on vacation take the abroad breeze and come back
But if you want to Jakpa ensure you have an investment here to falls back to.
Is not as greener as you think over there, don’t let social media deceive you. Abroad is not designed to make you rich if you want to go for sanity than riches then Jakpa

Japa-land (https://japaland.com/) is a platform I came across that aims to create a network of Nigerian communities for individuals moving overseas, providing a space for them to connect with established communities in their new surroundings, settle and stay in touch with Nigeria. I think its a great idea!

No, because you can't make decisions for yourself.

If you don't have a reason to leave the country, stay back until you have one. Don't just leave because everyone is leaving and someone or people are telling you to.

If the person can cover the full tuition fee, hell yes because 4 yrs down the line, that 1.2m (currently = 750 USD) might depreciate to 400 USD with the way things are going.

Immigration laws are changing and there's no guarantee that that job will be there in future. Unless the person is into tech or medical field, then he can risk it

If your salary is 1.2 million naira in Nigeria you will need to save like 3 years without touching a single Kobo to be able to migrate through school route to UK or Canada that's if the naira doesn't fall further.

No, Nigeria is enjoyable if you are rich. Save and setup series of businesses. Buy solar for constant power, employ the service of a security company for security services. Travel only for vacation.

You think people moving abroad from oil companies, banks, tech firms are earning 200k? Some of us are earning $2000 to $5000 monthly as software engineers or technical writers, yet we will Japa!!! You think it's all about money ?

People forget the majority of people leaving are high income earners. Don't worry, we'll visit this thread in 5 years time
