Studied Overseas For Better Opportunities.. Should I Come Back To Nigeria? by Jeddy100(m): 10:53am On Mar 01, 2017
This is a topic that is really close to my hear and I hope it helps someone reading this post.

I have been privileged to have studied overseas and I currently have a Job overseas. However, there is this burning desire to come back to Nigeria, partly because there is no place like home as well as the fact that I would like to give back to my nation in some way.

There are however so many disturbing stories about Nigeria regarding corruption, political instability and economical dis-functionalities. Would it be selfish for me to stay overseas and continue working here or would I be letting myself and my nation down if I don't come back to my country.

I know getting a good paying Job will not be an issue, however, the living conditions in Nigeria is something I am no longer accustom to.

I am really torn and I need some advice.

Well, it all depends on you. If you are completely okay in where you are right now then I would advise you to stay there but if you still feels like coming home to impact and contribute to the growth and development of your nation, then that wil be very nice too. Whichever way, stil better. It is matter of choice.

On the other way, please if you see any existing Scholarship over there that can help me in my MSc program please relate to me. Thanks
