Slovenia is cool and accepts Nigerians easily, the only difficulty is they don't have an embassy in Nigeria. Their embassy is in Egypt and so will cost you more money.

It's a developed country, with good infrastructure.
I spent few days in Cairo. Hope to visit again soon to go see Pyramids, beaches, etc.
Thank you, how much is the budget to stay in Egypt for a month and can a Nigerian stay in Egypt comfortably for a year and more ?

Sheyimann:
Japa Guys,
I saw a post on Facebook of some people planning to visit Rwanda on a whim just because of posts and pictures of some beautiful Rwandan girls they saw online, this post of mine is meant to make some simple things clear before anyone travels just because of promises and fantasies anyone might have.
First and foremost, visa.
1.Rwanda is visa free for Nigeria, though i'm not sure if it still is, but ensure to do your research, if memory serves me, up until now, Rwandan has been visa for Nigeria, all you need is buy your ticket, yellow card and hotel booking and that should be all, I think, so think again before lazily doling out your money to agents, there is no process at all ,just buy your ticket and do the other things I mentioned.
2.Currency:s As at 2021 when I arrived here, the exchange rate of Naira to Rwanda francs was somewhere around 1 naira to 2 Rwandan francs, some of the Nigerians I met even told me it was higher than that in the previous years, fast forward to 2023 July and the naira is now struggling greatly even against the Rwandan Francs, so it is clearly not a promising sign for people who want to visit Rwanda, right now if you have a million naira with you ,you would barely get 1.5million Rwandan francs, in the previous years like 2021 and early 2022 ,you could get 1.6-1.8 million Rwandan francs.
The exchange power of the Nigerian currency is at an all time low, if you do not want to be stranded ,don't be decieved by the exchange rates shown on Google, L.O.L, they are polar opposites, so my advice is change your naira to dollars and have it in mind that you would not change any naira to Rwanda francs in Kigali, do your exchange to dollar in Nigeria, if you come here to exchange naira to dollars, you will be shocked , so heed to this simple advice.
3.Flight ticket prices: This is another shocking offshoot of the low currency power of the naira, back in 2021 or early 2022, Lagos to Kigali was around 139k or lower to 150k, fast forward to 2023 July, the current ticket prices as listed on quite a number of ticketing platforms are around 280,000 naira - 340K or thereabouts for one way, while two ways bookings are around 580,000 naira - 600k and above, you can see almost a 100 percent increase. Kigali, however remains just a 4 hours flight,
4.Hotels and Accommodations in Kigali
Hmmm, for hotel accomodation, be ready to pay 30$ to 80$ or more depending on your taste, but if you are looking to rent your own studio or apartment, be ready to between 80-120$ depending on the area, housing in Kigali is a gold mine , a room and parlor with toilet and no kitchen goes for 80$ in most places in Kigali, while a room and parlor with no toilet goes for 70$, while one that has both maybe 90$ -120$ per month , that's one area that makes real estate and housing in Lagos probably better than Kigali, however, when electricity becomes 100 percent in Nigeria, I am sure land owners and house owners would take a leaf from the Rwanda housing playbook, lol.
So don't jump on the bandwagon of looking for 30$ or 50$ apartments, you may never find it because the house brokers are greedy as F.So be wise in your travel or visit plans.
5.F.A.Qs
How long would may free visa last? You get just a month free visa as a Nigeria, use it to plan your journey, either to visit exciting places or apply for another class of visa, but most importantly, do not overstay your free visa , it puts a smear on the Nigeria green port, be wise .
Is there a Nigerian Embassy in Kigali, Rwanda ?
Yes there is , I have been there personally, Nyarutarama, the Nigeria rep here is a friendly and kind woman, but watch out, if you have a issues, you would pay money ooo ,lol, but it's a good place to visit and yourself as a Nigeria in Rwanda.
How is the business landscape in Kigali, Rwanda?
Hmmm, this one go far, there are some gray areas in doing business in Kigali ,Rwanda, where should I even start,
Taxes:I think Rwanda and Kenya are probably one of the most tax-oriented economies in black Africa, and it works for them because for the most part, you can see that the taxes funds are being deployed into sectors of the country, however , for a foreigner, taxes in Rwanda may be a quick poison new start ups owned by foreigners, and there is a way for you to avoid because Rwanda's system is so effective at tracking almost payments and transactions, plus the taxes are not even commensurate to the size of the business.
Whether you want to run a small or big business, it don't matter, there are several taxes lined up for you and you must pay,else wahala for you.
6. July- December
I personally think that July-December are the colder months in Rwanda ,from morning till night , it would be chilly, so you may need to bring some sweaters till you adapt to the weather, you won't even need fans or air conditioners ,the weather is naturally cold during these periods.
7,8,9,10 To be continued when the spirit leads. Lest I forget, Rwandans are heavy drinkers, so don't that train, else you'll be broke in a week with the way everything is becoming expensive globally.
Opinion
I think this is a bad time to even travel out of Nigeria because of the currency issue, you may be need anything above 1.5m naira to have a decent visit experience in Kigali, Rwanda, I say this as the lowest of low budgets to have when travelling currently to Kigali, Rwanda, if you make the mistake of travelling with lower, you would be certainly shocked when you arrive, so be wise.
Travelling to Rwanda currently is not the same as any other year or years past, so do your budgets wisely ,plan and re-plan and have a clear goal if you intend to stay on.

Give your life to Christ and find a good church to attend ,be their drummer and tell them your needs and problem , bible teaching churches are like a family. They help one another like the love Christ have for us.

Selfless1:
thanks for your opinion....could you please give me a rough estimate of the amount I need to set up a barbarshop in any location you are familiar with...your response would be highly appreciated
Alright for a two sitter barbershop at a good location (town) in a state like jos,kaduna or kano
Excluding the shop rent I'm very sure 400k will do...that include buying stuffs like spray sterilizers and a towel warmer .
But states like Abuja,Lagos and pprthacourt I really can't tell..
Barbing is a very decisive craft..nowadays its more of packaging plus the real stuff (talent) in the sense that the kind of facilities and services you render determines the price of your haircut and also the kinds of people that will be of patronage.

JrSteven(m): 10:38pm On Sep 29, 2020 |
I think the price depends on the location but one thing I'm very sure of is that there's good cashout from owning a barbershop.
