A Nigerian lady has taken to social media to advise Nigerians intending to travel abroad that they can do it without having millions in their account.
The lady with the Twitter handle @Mochievous said she left Nigeria on her N100k salary as a lawyer in Lagos.
She wrote:
“I emigrated out of Nigeria on my N100k salary as a lawyer in Lagos. There are many ways to do it legally that do not require you having 10 million Naira.”
The young lady said she left using the student route and gave Nigerians tips on how to go about it.
According to her, prospective students should ask for an application fee waiver to all schools they are applying to.
She, however, asked them to prioritise schools that give generous scholarships to Africans.
Below are other tips she gave:
She added:
“You will suffer small sha o. But it gets better. Sorry I lied. You will suffer plenty.”

“Moe, please what is the best website to apply for this?”

“If you are 100% committed to using school / a funded scholarship as your launching pad, it’s absolutely possible. I know too many people (not first class grads) who have gotten scholarships to top schools, but please be ready to work hard to submit an application that stands out!”
