Going back home is not the best solution now. pls help we are confused now. Not easy on them. Thank u.

Mobil567:
Going back home is always an option and a very good one, because no place like home. That’s where they found savings to japa. They can start over easily and forget *what will people say*.

Nigerians are really going through hell in UK. This are people doing literally well in Nigeria. Resigned their jobs, sold their lands, cars etc only to come to face hard life to the fullest.

RodgersAkpafu:


are people really "doing well" in Nigeria as you asserted?

I'm not so sure
N1 million a month with a wife and three kids is not doing well, if really you wanna give your kids a good education, live in a proper place, and live the nice middle class lifestyle Nigerians used to enjoy pre 2010.

Hello all, I booked an appointment at the Port Harcourt TLS Center. I received confirmation and a reminder message from TLS about my appointment, but the website is not set yet. It self-services. Do you think they will attend to me on Tuesday, or do I have to rebook again? I can’t even cancel appointments. Anyone with such experience? Did you manage to go to TLS to submit with the date shown? Thank you. I need an urgent response because I am going crazy.

It’s so funny honestly. I know they’re trying to discourage people from relocating because of the new laws in U.K which isn’t as favourable but the way they make it look like Nigeria is actually great is funny. How many Nigerians earn even 200k ? And with that so called 200k as a family person what can it do?

People should just choose the lesser of two evils as per their discretion.

I get both sides
But honestly jaapa is somewhat unsustainable because I can bet at least 10 million youths in Nigeria are ready to jaapa at the drop of the hat
and there is hardly any country or even group of countries that can accept so many people

The long term solution is at least to make Nigeria a bit more livable so that people can at least manage, but we have a useless president and swathes of ignorant populace.

Anybody who can jaa should jaa sha, but jaa with sense, especially if you have kids, because how will you explain to the kids after u have brought them here and they have been here for all few years that they will be headed back ?
That's the dilemma many are facing

The Truth is people who earn 200k monthly don’t migrate, I don’t see how they re going to do it, average school fee cost £12,000 = about #20,000,000, they simply can’t have this money saved up by earning 200k only monthly, majority people who have migrated earn far more than this except those sponsored by family. Majority people working in the uk can’t save £8,000 annually except you choose to deprive yourself of the good enough life which sometimes defeats the purpose of leaving Nigeria, imagine someone who owns a big house of 5 bed duplex in Nigeria with a family of 5 squeezing themselves in a tiny 2 bedroom in London with a rent of £1200 monthly.
So much is happening to Nigerians in the UK, people don’t know the whole story. A lot of Nigerians will still be forced to leave after spending their life saving because once they turn illegal their lives will be miserable . Those discouraging other Nigerians only do that out of love, they really don’t want them to come and suffer like they are.
I would also discourage the do or die mentality most Nigerians have, also I have to realize this whole migration thing is even better for a single person. It’s easier.

Cars are moving freely, private schools are opened, government schools are closed in Abuja. Banks opened in the morning but later closed. So it’s a bit hard to tell. Maybe by evening more information will drop. Wish you the best.

Why is this forum full of negative energy ? If you are tired of the place .. then leave!!!!! and leave people that wanna go to go..

fastseo:




Am sure you are not part of those that tells people to look for school that accept 2000 pounds then when they come they will work pay the rest 20k pounds. The most important thing is to leave Nigeria.

It looks like the UK has introduced visa interviews for student visas. Do you know anyone who has applied for a student visa recently and got approved or rejected without an interview ?

Me no dey advice people o. I was like that too last year I'll be telling people come back if you know it is not favourable until I enter UK and I was shocked to see what Nigerians are passing through and I joined them. I have been depressed since February. I never get any job till now and University dey disturb me and threatening to lock portal. Bills don pile up.

Fullclub opened a thread last year that made FP I was about processing mine then but you know this Nigerian mentality of "my case will be different" that was my own believe until I landed and see for myself. I have regrets, i am depressed and at times I say some prayers and get strengthened within but the reality here is shocking and depressing. If you advice people they'll think you don't want them to come.
