It is time to start processing Canada PR

Now you can do that. It's time.

some people above in this thread although I thank them have said I should stay put to Nigeria, but they themselves are abroad, them no gree come back naija!!that's people for you!!

Although i understood why some said to stay put. I wont say that. Explore the world. Noting wrong with that. It's true that some people are overseas doing absolutely nothing. They are miserable. They better of in nija. There are many cases of people who made bad decisions but your case is now different compared to your initial thought. You now have backup to fall on.

You see what you did easily by building your own little house. That's precious. You know many people abroad send money to their loved ones, family or even contractor to build a house for them but their money go down the drain. You have to thank God that you are present with builders from beginning till end. That's something some people abroad have no privilege.

As for me, I never said you should stay put. I suggested you open small business or build a house if you could. That you may travel thereafter. Here is the link https://www.nairaland.com/2118308/advice-pls

Explore the world bro and dont forget home ooo my brother.

Hi Bro. Congratulations on your project. On the matter of traveling, the advise not to travel is part right. The issue is when you travel without proper arrangement. If you travel and try to stay in Canada without resident papers, then you are looking for trouble.

You are actually a step ahead by listening to pple on the building construction rather than waste that money to travel. what i tell my loved one is to settle in Nigeria if they have something going for them. You can Travel abroad at any time when you are successful. I have been in US for 20 years and my life dream is to return to Nigeria as soon as possible. Im aware of the hardship but if i put in the kind of effort i had in the US, im very sure i will be doing better than im currently doing. Im not poor here but i invest in Nigeria because its easy to enter the business arena in places like Nigeria than here abroad. And as an engineer, Nigeria has so much opportunities that are yet to be cultivated.

Your goal is to see the world and learn from abroad what can help you develop in your own homeland. Successful pple NEVER leave their base. E.G Mike Adenuga, Aliko, Alakija etc. These pple has all the money in the world but why didn't they just leave Nigeria


In my opinion, you are successful when you can be in your own home among your pple and can still get the best the world has to offer. Thats true wealth. Good Luck and God Bless you.

Thank you Sir @true2home.
I wish to process Permanent Residence,not just going there Sir,

If I can quote you,you have spent 20years in USA,I think it will not be bad if I taste only 5years in Canada too.

Sir with all sincerity Mike adenuga made it from USA, he even did MBA in USA before coming back,so he was not a naija stickler.

Anuways thank you.
