Chai...so bank branch managers earn less than $400/month in Nigeria? I'm assuming this is retail/consumer banking like First Bank, Access Bank and such. I actually suspected it was this low which is why I've always been wondering what the big deal is about a bank manager in Nigeria. But people argue so much I started doubting my own experience. Wow!!!

By the way I looked up some data and there's about 4500 commercial bank branches in Nigeria. Just so we know.

https://techpoint.africa/2023/07/12/banks-with-the-most-branches-in-nigeria/#:~:text=Nigeria%

Very few bank managers, that's why they're highly regarded. PwC data shows 0.4% of Nigerian adults earn over ₦200K/month!!!

Better to migrate and restart as security guard or cook in US/UK abeg if one can't get an equivalent job in banking. Wow, hair braider in USA can make that money with just one customer and remit the money to Nigeria!!!!

Now my understanding is even deeper. No wonder demand for migration is so high. God Bless the King biko, God Bless USA , may we always work hard to uphold the good systems and standards we've inherited from those who built these countries.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Lol. Whatever rocks your story sha

Tbh, I am in-between.
I can't totally criticize those leaving nor call those staying back stupid.
Moving has it's merits and demerits just like staying back.
It is just for someone to weigh his options and know the pros and cons of their actions and ready to face it but generally, the advantage of going to western countries is -
1. Foreign certificate gives you better job with higher earnings.
2. Strong port that won't make you to be wasting money on visas or delays or visa denial.
3. Their economy is so developed that you can virtually work in any sector and live a good life and can easily get a good job without connections or letters from kings/senator/governor/local government chairman just to get a decent job.

Those 2 points above are good points of moving.
In my career, using a Nigerian certificate has really cost me a lot and slowed down my progress and I know and see my colleagues with foreign certificates getting promoted faster than me and even earning better pay at the same level.

How does a strong port benefits you if you don’t have money? Broke people wey dey abroad no dey enjoy any port. Ask how many countries Nigerians with American port don travel go

The US has always been tough to migrate to legally and establish a stable residency. Even other white folks find it hard to emigrate to the US legally. The economic downturn has exacerbated things. H1B quotas have not been increased, and other legal routes take so much time due to clogs within the system.

The world is going to be more competitive as time goes on. Make people know how dem dey fvck o.

US has been so hard cuz they no dey give visa again. It’s like they’ve shadowbaned the green port, but keep collecting money from us for visa — you’re spending nothing less than 1M+ trying to get appointment, especially if you are thinking of the student route — yet denied. Go to Walter Carrington around 6AM to 8AM, and see crowd , only to get denied and money wasted. Most Nigerians now will rather use their money chop fish and open shop for their wives to be selling beans and rice than to waste such money on American visa

UK has adjusted their immigration policy and made it unattractive to most Nigerian Japarians.

Canada did same.

US has been a no go area since Trump's regime.

is now delaying visa appointments, same with most other European countries.

When you these points with high inflation making naira to lose its value, tell me how else you expect average Nigerians to japa?

Who else notice that the japa noise has reduced these days? Or people no longer japa again ? Before, anywhere you go on social media you’ll see things like “I don’t get these things, I just talk to a man who sold his 5 duplexes and 500 cars and 6 businesses in Nigeria to relocate to UK permanently “ “new dispensation”

Is it that people no longer japa ir they’re hiding it now?

Well you've listed good points but you should also that VO's enjoy what is known as ''diplomatic immunity''

They can reject you for reasons like looking too ugly, being too short or tall, or having too much money
shown on your pof which makes the vo feel insecure, and there is nothing you or your govt can do about it. They won't tell the real reason for sure, they'll tell you you're being denied cuz you couldn't prove hometies.

You're still at the mercy of the vo even if your over qualified

Hi Guys,

For those that have done WES evaluation, how long does it take to this stage?

I have gained ission to the department in the school. However, I need to get my Wes evaluation done for the Graduate school to it me before I can get my i20

Lemme share my timeline with you— however when I did it, I was in the United States that time and I could actually call them directly to know how far..

Paid and submitted on June 8th, and it was delivered to my address on July 10 — that’s around 1 month

Is it mandatory to schedule a DHL pick up? Or just go there and get your port after visa/ port is available for pick up?

Try and schedule pickup. Two years ago, I didn’t schedule pickup, and I picked my port. But it seems it’s a requirement now. That was the email they sent to me this time when I got another F-1 visa
