Waow!...it's been 7 years now. I wonder where those lucky souls who won the visa lotteries back then are now...the challenges and opportunities they have faced...and if life abroad was all they hoped it'll be. Oh, the stories they would tell...all sweet and bitter. The perfect mix of life. I just wonder 1 Like |

I am one of those lucky ones who won the last batch of the visa lottery in 2012 and to God be the glory, it's been a mix of bitter-sweet experiences but with a very happy ending. I left Nigeria on March 30th, 2013 for Houston Texas, I had a very hard start because I came into America with a $100 bill, yes a single hundred dollar bill from which I took a shuttle ride to my host house with $36 and opened my first bank account with Bank of America a few days later. It was extremely hard for me to get a job fast because I don't have a car or the money to buy one, my host was still new in the system with absolutely no knowledge or experience to share but it all went well to date but not without series of challenges and been homeless for somedays along the way. I left my wife who was 6 months pregnant back then, My first trip back to Nigeria was September 2014 after 18 months to check on my wife and son, and other members of the family, it was a very emotional experience to be in Nigeria again and I promised my wife to be back soonest which I did 6 months later in March 2015, I have visited Nigeria back and forth 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017,2018,2019 except for 2020 because of the Covid crisis I started filling for my wife and son after 2 years in the system and they have since joined me in March 2017, we had another son in September 2020. God has blessed us with a nice house in Nigeria which was built to completion in 2017. Looking back, it's been nothing but determination, hard work, tenacity, optimism, and above all the grace of God. Waow!...it's been 7 years now. I wonder where those lucky souls who won the visa lotteries back then are now...the challenges and opportunities they have faced...and if life abroad was all they hoped it'll be. 18 Likes |

I thanked God for everyone that has won the dv lottery before it was scrapped by obama. I tried my best too, I aspired to win it too but God didn't allowed me to win before it was scrapped. I started applying for the dv lottery diversity program from year 2001 while I was in sss1 in secondary school in Lagos, and I applied for it yearly till it was scrapped by obama administration in year 2011 while I was in 400 level at the University in ibadan. processing american visa now nah jamb exam, especially under past presidency of Donald trump which made a master's student visa a hell. am still on the struggle to emigrate though, things are not the way they used to be in the past anymore. 1 Like |
