Thanks a lot, baba!!! let's say I do these online courses ...will I be able to get a job in Nigeria

Yeah, first degree is key but it'd be possible to get a good paying job as a developer in Nigeria if you are good enough.

I don't have a university degree. Dropped out of Unilorin when I was 18 ( 300L, Midway 2nd semester ). No, I didn't have terrible grades. my CGPA was 3.2 ( might have been better if I attended classes and read weeks prior to exams rather than just photocopying colleagues notes a week or 2 before examinations)

I am 22 now, I have a 400K ( post taxes) job in Nigeria ( 300K when I was 21 ).

It just depends on skillsets and learning. I had a pretty popular tech blog ( not Samsung and Tecno phone crap but real tech programming stuff)
and my GitHub was good enough.

You will be rejected, Sure thing. But use that as fuel to doing more and improving.

While I make enough as a developer and I am comfortable than most people in the country will ever be, I am pressing forward to conquer the world plus Nigeria is starting to be seriously unsafe for young successful people.

I just booked my flight to Berlin in the later part of this month.
