Mods please forgive me.I know this is not the right section for this but,Only God knows how bad I need advice right now. I really need all the advice I can get now especially from the adults In the house. please anyone who has something to say, please advice me like I am your own child... Let me just go straight to the point..I am currently on the verge of gaining admission into a government owned university in Nigeria, all the expenses are going to be taken care of by my dad and I am currently 20 years old... After much thought and thinking I've been doing lately and not to forget I dropped out of a private university last year at 300L because honestly I don't just like school I feel it's not meant for people like me....I am a business mined and money driven person and I know I very hardworking especially at things I love and set my mind to do. After giving much thought to how things are going in this country and the kind of dreams I have for my self and my family, I am currently considering calling my dad for a talk and explaining to him that I would love to learn any I.T related course in Nigeria for may be six Months or so then after that, travel to Europe or Canada for work....



Guys I really need your advice... And please take note, money is not the problem because I know who my father is and what he is capable of..

Would it be wise to travel abroad for work after studying an I.T course here in Nigeria considering my age and what I stand to achieve with in the span of four years of working abroad, or should I just stay and study my computer science jeje in Nigeria.



Mods, please help me push to f.p, because it would really help me alot.

Dude you're only 20

Why did you dropout when you have a year or two left?

lol jus 20 years u dey worry ur sef too much

You never even reach 40, you don dey possess half the adage characteristics.

Do the I.t, and travel to europe.... It pays than wasting your time in this so country. U can decide further over there

You shouldn't have dropped from school no matter how inconvenient you may have felt, tell your dad to enroll you back to a good school in Canada, that way you can school and work, don't neglect your studies, you still be smally

So, you need honest advice? You better go back to your abandoned programme. Whatever you need to complete it, just sit your lazy ass down and do it. Thereafter, you can begin thinking of Canada or US for masters.
So you think a crash course of 6 months is what you need to compete in US or Canada? Do you know that Canada universities gradautes some of the best trained IT graduates in the world today. There are about 2M IT professionals in Canada today, yet you want to come with one useless IT crash course and think you can easily get a job? How do you guys reason self? You think first world is as lazy as 3rd world? Many international graduates here are looking for work in their field so they can qualify for PR, you are thinking of crash 6 months programne to compete with graduates from UofT, McGill, Waterloo, UBC, etc. Even general labour sef go hard you to get. Do you know how many universities in these country offer computer science as course. Do you know how many tech savvy graduates from India, Pakistan, China, Hong Kong, etc are hustling to move to US and Canada, even with MSc? Sir stop this bad dream, it is a ladder to poverty and regrets, I know because I live in Canada and I have an MSc Computer Science graduate from Pakistan with years of experience both in Pakistan and Dubai who works for me as system analyst.
Again, so at 20 you still do not know you are an adult, you are opening your mouth that you dropped out at 300L, how stupid. In Canada, at 16, you are an adult. You think your father is going to be alive forever?
My friend, just go back to school and sit your ass down and face your studies. Do you even realise that if you start afresh now, you will be 26 when you go into the labour market? New graduates now are in their early 20s, so by then the industries will see you as an old man without experience. Please, GO BACK TO YOUR CLASS AND ROUND OFF WHATEVER IS LEFT OFF YOUR 300L PROGRAMME,except you are looking for short-cut to poverty in life. This is the same advice I would give my son. Fortunately he is graduating at 22 in same computer science. So, you see son, I am advising you from a knowledge point of view, not just from conjecture or what I read on the net. Goodluck!

I don't think government school gives the best option right now, since you are business minded, are.tou considering focusing on your business.

Leaving Nigeria is always a good option as you can always come back anytime you so desire.

If you want to learn an I.T. course, make sure it is one that is acceptable world wide like CISCO, Amazon and the likes.

You should be fine and I wish you the best.

Someone with lots of insight found time to advise u, yet u open ur mouth with all ingratitude!
Were u not d one that said u dropped out cos school is not for u?
U talk about business bla, bla, u think it's just by desire? What do u know about business risk management, about accounting, about investment options, about economics?
We are saying at the very least get a basic degree of which u had just 1 or 2 yrs left! What stops u from having a BSc and going to Canada for a masters?
What stops u from finishing Bsc, learning programming very well during or after BSc b4 going abroad?
