as we say, they're never giving up every weekend on d w. the, have you ever heard the term job palm? well, it's quite a buzzword in nigeria, and it's basically describes how masses of young people are picking up and leaving the country to search for better opportunities elsewhere. we met some of these people and prepared best stories here for you at the 77 percent live show and i'm your host to date here's what's coming up in a board. yeah, we need an id expert who has said his eyes on a job in canada, in our district debate 8 us kamani, f nigeria and flies. so many young people want to migrate. and we

find out why tamika a young professional moving to germany despite her comfortable job back home. have you ever been at a place in your life where you had to take some drastic measures to change your situation? well, that's exactly the position that victor. okay. full of found himself in a master's degree in his hand, but no job inside. he will soon say good bye to his home, city of boucher to start a new life in canada to and he's just one of many nigerian youth with a similar dream. the hustle and bustle, the every day struggled. the reasons why many nigerians went on like ever these tradesmen, delta 759, g, unless they need to collect a fund to the ritual. yes, the choice and maybe for management of i'm just a word that holds the power to ignite dreams of a new life,

the possible recipe to success. jeff up meetings fleet, or a, steven euro, but has become synonymous with a burning desire to my ball. you know it's, it's kind of flexible to move things that he loved behind. so, to hi this amazing this mrs. list, because i kind of invest the deluxe here. i just talked to mrs. go, just for green off costs. those to see they're not passes. you know that going through the expert victoria. ok, so that has gotten to jump in canada and he is ready to start over in a foreign country since graduating. he's kept himself afloat with this you selling business and i teach skills, but what he really wanted was a prestigious, wide color job. play a pause um for years has upgraded that and i've been, you know, doing the front end of business is always me. it's my degree my my size i'm you know, going to find out. i'm trying to make my payment by slow. yeah. i don't think it's

what's called me like do we i expected. so that's um, you know, thinking of relocating country, the us international organization of migration says that up to 260000 people requested their assistance to leave nigeria in 2023. victor spend several months researching different destinations, considering the cost of living jobs prospect and overall quality of life. many nigerians do the same mean sense of jo before and even age or the this the facilitators do kind of, would you please a job for me and also with my skills is my 3rd skills. i kind of also add that size of my time. jo. boy, so, so vehicle, despite the global popularity of the nigerian, were joppa obtaining a visa as an a, jerry and can be quite a challenge. the nigerian passport is ranked as one of the least respected

passports in the world. as a result, many young luxuriance have resulted to using travel agents to assist them and their visa process. why best people need those claims for me? we need to consult on this because in these terms, like, let's say they're immigration lawyer like the they have to go to the spots that you are travelling. those low, meaning all the requirements are willing to go on the website to check their companies. yes. believe those are still the we, we of consultants know the extra documents to provide to make sure that the use of a 100 percent of them given to them. yes. or we also prepare them what they have to see in front of the cost of the or while some visa agents might have their clients best interest at heart. agents have also been known to scan applicants take the money and not deliver the promise visa. others make clients the large sums of money over several years for the visa services. as a result,

some people choose the dudley route across the desert and mediterranean sea, resulting in thousands of deaths and disappearances each year. victor, his work and visa application custom $3500000.00 ira or $3800.00 us dollars. yet at least he says he has a trustworthy agent. the issue is, i know somebody says my documents, my passports and ever that. and then they took it up from the the exit is of ambitious. young africans is a concern for their home countries leaving behind a gap and skills labor. yet the migrants themselves also faced a difficult decision, leaving their loved ones behind or settling for a life with a limited prospect. you know, it's painful, so home that's, i'm going to need my series on my, my siblings and visit the friends. is lazy. we does have some thinking like that says we are going to try to make more money. make my boy i hope that's next

serious line over time. have the opportunity to to bring them over and we called the to get a get out of funding. yes. you know, if there's a, be just for a very long time it says look, somehow dog. so unless it is this again, victor will soon be boarding a plane to start a new life in canada. yes. wireless future as planned out. many youngsters like him struggling to find a promising jeff or route for themselves. and so what are you seeing in your country? do you know any people who left? actually, you might be a person who decided to explore a job or a business opportunities in a foreign country. we wanted to find out how the situation differs from country to country. so we sent out our team of correspondence to find some answers. here's what they brought back from. gonna uganda. and can you brain try and have

a mixed impact in kenya? on the one hand that takes highly skilled workers outside the country. on the other hand, they sent the large amounts of money back home in 2022. remittances from canyons living abroad became the largest source of for an exchange, amounting to $4300000000.00 us dollars. in fact, can you as president the amount that he hopes to double this number and explore to even more canyon was canyon data shows that migration increases with a level of education health care because of some of the main professionals leaving can yes but, but adults all further education, in fact, canyon health care. what? because when to the st complaining about, the lack of good and stable job, even though hospitals here on the south, the 2022 gun is youth unemployment rate stored. living points one full of things, a millions of young, i mean, are close. thank you. searching for new jobs. many of them, sadly,

including those within the center of skills, only see themselves green becca outside, gonna waste. that's why i'm police. like you got killing your tire, you don't mind shooting down there to boost that move in from go from floods in an inspection. now it's looking at the country like gemini and he said, plays for the future. well, what excites me all by the carrier. we can see that this elaine, between views from my boss, if we get too many new ideas, think technology new them, we just didn't know if that's the key destination has been in europe in the americas. in fact, the gemini, or is 2nd only to the united kingdom, are stop destination use for the game in a gas brook publishing. again, i is also one of the countries that you have close promptly. projects with this migration reforms that foreclose was killed. lima and migration sites are not both as counseling the young people, sick into travel, has also been operational for some time. now that are key for costs now is

providing the advisory services for a come use who have they expect to use and willing to work broad with gun are still struggling economically and not being able to create opportunities for many young people. migrating outside has become in this society rather than and loves re for millions, including professionals. you've gotten the problem of brain drain. but because of poor documents issues, it's hard to appreciate the real part of this problem. many proficient us try to seek employment outside the country, mainly because of unemployment and for a pick model so troubling outside your gun. that is not an easy attempt. mainly because of visa, i'm shovel restrictions. what's that? you would like to find jobs outside your gun when they need some don't even want to come by me. that's an interesting point, right?

people leave, don't want to come back, but what do you think? do africans who move abroad have an obligation to later return to their home countries? or would you say they shouldn't even leave in the 1st place? well, here's prove that this is a very controversial topic by calling 8 of the money was in lagos, to find out what people there think. and here's our street debate, the hello, and welcome back to this 7 to 7 percent. this week we are back in the julia and before we continue, i'd like you to pick to something. imagine living in the country where you feel completely frustrated by your government's efforts and feel absolutely no way out. what do you do? well, for most nigerians they decide to jump the yorba would for run. and so huge is this problem that's recently elected president, to nubile asked people in the diaspora in the us to come back home and forget the

frustrations of the previous government. but is this enough to allow the young people here to remain? that's the question we have to day. and i'm going to begin with some soon. now you, i, one of the people who we thing, but look, this country is not really watching out for me and give them the chance i am taking the 1st flights out of here and never coming back. why? this is so i meant to just the entropy. no, i think about me having solutions, so many problems. and then still trying to box will be the 1st struck to thinking about pa thinking up our main center thinking of buying plastic or that will help me do many things. i will want to do that. i've had several of challenges like these where i'm trying to do something bored. mean i gave to the environment, there is no wi fi like i make me do stuff. there's no infrastructure like i give me an idea of what i want to do is very frustrating. okay, so let me hear from other people here, just the state of affairs and i do at the moment. how would you describe it's a older diet. so this gets a little measure out. yeah, i might see things on working right. but it's not going to be to,

i'm sure i try is going to be a better place if we all contribute all thoughts to make it. okay. so you say it's going to be a better place, but what is the situation present to them? yes, that's the reason why we are developing issue on the rights. we have multiple posit, listed on what he is, what's nevertheless, cause i've got some data. okay, so i want to talk to dr. fuller for a 2nd because you are a doctor practicing pediatrician. and also interestingly, a visual artist. i've no idea how you manage those 2 schedules. i can barely keep mine up. so um your industry picked medicine is one of the west affected by joppa. actually just from the reports that we're hearing, tell us a little bit about that. are you seeing an impact almost 90 percent of the people? i went to school, we'd have left the country. they something about being a medical doctor. that nature is really feeling that if you go to other countries, less than countries date is the huge amount of respect. and you know, there's a, a chair it is given to medical doctors that we do not have here the fees,

very bad leaving conditions. very bad and you know, we, if you break down what's the government's is given to the doctors in the country here, it's really bad. i have a lot of hope for the new, the new um, the new routine, hoping that things would change for sure. i'm also hoping that my, my colleagues will also come back to the country when they have developed themselves and all that. but most people of just one to run if you a doctor. there's no reason for you to be major if that is what everybody's saying . okay, let me come back to own desire here for a 2nd because you and you said that, you know things are bad, but there's no reason to go when you hear dr. follow speaking. i mean, surely those to wells don't belong together. i'm so i'm not saying there's no reason to go right. boys are going, was my intention if i oh, but he lives lencher, so venture, that's the truth. we will have to go. yes. you can go get to know that you have come back, come through the manager, come up close the structure that you just as appropriate price. when you 1st of probably play, you still get public, you create opportunity to talk to them and you get to know that you'd like to come

back on korea to put units in and you make mention of it, but it's okay. i do, i do, i do. i agree. i agree because opie's nice truck is you don't want to keep open for 62 years. we have to pay out what no cost and nobody people that cost on that body of fucking imagine me get out of the country, go to knowledge, come back and i'm be several times have been cubes just because i did distracted duty. someone in government to make my dear come to reality. i mean, are we talking about a country where you can literally, you know, say why we happened and this time, no secure, but you know, your thought struck to that telling me that i should go? no, no, no, no, i'm not saying that all the countries i know like that i'm saying that the settings are things that i should be set to know about the things that should be nothing for me, provided by the government that should be able to do what we have talking about gimme a 2nd because we need to. yes, i also think that you kind of discount the fact that the programs and that you have very institutional people leave this country. i have friends who have left this country. i mean, 3 years they have houses because as mortgage systems,

we don't have documents here. we do mess up docs and that you know, we do is accessible. i think i recall it for me please. so i think that we're coming from the place to privilege. if you think let's, let's listen to, i think i can somebody please of privilege if you think that you know, my pressing can access the things that you said i no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, this is, this is the pro, but i just oftentimes because we have access to social media, we think everyone's life is perfect. it's not like that even in the abroad. you have to have a certain kind of salary to get certain kind of mortgage to get a certain kind of house everywhere has its own kind of strategies or rules. he says something about a doctor. and i know even when i was trying to study medicine, doctor was supposed to have some kind of ingrained reason to want to help people go to the fact that people are running away because of money. it's a problem to me. you took an oath to save lives. that's on to her. the me there. hold on, hold on, hold on. hold on. let's just come back to the center for a 2nd. you said something about the medical profession and question and what is

driving the dr. desires and what their motivation is. yes. and the media is trying to explain the difference the is that sense of belonging? never beyond the level of being green misstep that comes with a professional. you know, that's another country i won't be. i feel like will be the solution. i need to say that we don't speak, but it should says, yeah, it might have called the put 9. yes. am i correct? not here, but i'm not as of your life into caring for people. it's a catch me for people making sure that people are life, then you should do that by level of respect from the government. okay? no problem, because because we've invoked the name of the duct of here, let's reintroduce him to the discussion. if you don't state who then gets to fix the system, you're trying to downplay the, the importance of p. and that is very, very, but these doctors and the machines, do you understand? most people come from families where the mother, the father, everybody's boring money to send this boy to school. you get, they become a medical doctor going heavily at home because you have

a lot of shift. so many patients to see 1st before because in a drug we have about 4000 patients to one doctor a. so i don't mind, you know, i, i'm ok. we've seen as many as i want to see. you understand what happens to me when do i go to after seeing everybody, where am i sleeping, what am i it's, there's something interesting which i discovered as i was doing research on this topic, which is where exactly nigerians are going. and not surprisingly, the countries, the top, the list, the kind of the us euro, and only one african country featured on that list. and that's what's gone now. so if the idea is to better your lives and not really to leave in the abroad, as we are saying, why not move to follow african countries? why not go to send a go? can anybody help me with that answer country? i mean, sure, i'm sure. do you know what is up and commenting gun that you noticed just aren't gonna correctly? is it developing countries? yes, true. but i mean, i'm feeling good deal. and if you're telling me that the problem is infrastructure, internet access to health care, the many african countries which can support you in those few. okay,

so tell me one or 2 of the code categories. one of the okay, yeah, i agree with you. so i must say that, you know, you remember that the mention i'm just trying to figure out if it's a fun to see about living in a west on wells, or if it's about truly improving your life. we have a system of shame when people are dropped off and they don't make enough money to come back home and people are laughing at them. the shame is that it isn't saw me leave. it is in every system, every you need from the family. so please have your confidence as a start from the family. so we're going to change that with this generation. all right? oh, we've never had clapping meet debates because that's not the yes you can. uh, and it's look to fall, it says something i wanted to think about solutions, right? i completely agree with what you said. you understand. having the shame is low, just only about if you leave and your 1st to come back. if you feeling names area to, you will have yourself, so nobody wants to fail. there's also the,

the issue of the glum, or you mentioned, why don't people go to other african countries true and what he wants to do with white people. i don't know what, i don't understand it, but i would say these lastly, right? you want to move, you move it publish, you have a skill, you have the reason, you know, you apply, you know what you're going to do. okay? so the question is, how do we make sure, but not the people don't leave, there's nothing intrinsically wrong with people wanting to emigrate to leave. but the people want to come back and be able to this country. how does that happen? any ideas? i'm 1st i think is very important that we look within, like we've been talking about purpose, i think is also very key though we need to be honest with ourselves and do research . i know many people are speaking from the points of frustration and anger. so i want people to realize that we do have some of the envelopes that we won't want because we speak for many points of anger that we kind of just dismiss things. we'll just have to absolutely look within. all right, so you're giving me a solution of how to stay and do you want to be? yes, i think is a by you. because i mean the value pay are in wherever you find yourself. i think

you're by, you're thinking about the fact that you are the assets through the country and not a liability thinking about the fact that you guys have the phone provider. okay. so that purpose for living that you were talking about. so yeah, at the beginning of this debate, we did have a very simple question. why have so many nigerians leaving and drugs? i think we've had very many visas. should they stay? should they go, i think they will continue to go. and whether or not they come back is something, but we only have to wait and see, well, something we don't have to wait to see is you next time for our show. thank you for watching the all right, i don't know about you, but i would have loved to be on that rooftop. i mean that discussion was on fire. now if you wants to see the full debates, go check it out on our youtube channel. so europe is a popular destination among nigerians who wants to jump high. in fact,

if you meet an african in berlin, chances are pretty high that they are from nigeria. but german capital is full of job opportunities and that's exactly what attracted to a mecca. it can, so i've been living in berlin for a few years now. and so far things are going pretty well. a point and 9 john sees wants to jump off like i just want to like, leave the country and go to a new country like you've been behind france on knob wants to explore the opportunity to see how life is outside of major and then get to grow into a korea on everyone to aspects of life actually move around the time that a lot of my friends move. so i felt like we all decided to please i'll find some way so far. so pushing it fits soon, leaving nigeria, that is with thousands of young's professionals,

are planning to do some of these in search of greener pastures, others to experience new places and where cultures for broaden the horizon for jim i county it was the last the young software engineer from a number of days left nigeria in 2021 and came to berlin there very long time. i have always have to leave, like i have friends in building offerings across jamie, i'm in other countries that i've been telling me to leave the country. so i felt so comfortable because i in for 29 dresses. uh i could actually rent an apartment in now one of the best places boards i paid points in time. i just had to leave, but it didn't come easy because the mains live in my family behind leaving the cultural dom where i didn't used to live in the foot behind. as it was like coming to an entirely different coincidence. almost every 2nd nigerian asked in 2019 by the pew research center said they planned to move abroad to search for better work opportunities. european cities like berlin,

attract many nigerian professionals like gemma, others. but to jump had to are the united states, canada, or great britain, but was a new place come new challenges the how to spot to being in. tell me. i think the language on the call cultural, i would say the germans, i be reserved. so and um to bureau kirsten germany is actually in laws like unlike many of her peers, jim aka has a good job back in 2022. every 2nd use in the area was unemployed. according to the national row of youth also struggling with insecurity that governance and unfair working conditions double put chances is really like what makes a lot of nigerians wants to leave. unlike a big top, you know,

environment to interface, cuz like jimmy is really like cool, configured like strong economy, lots of job opportunities please. and then the last the telling to do this was a mentor as how this so and insurance just wants to go out of their way to been so tough to where they will be really paid well for doing defense. and i did to endanger. but as tempting as moving abroad may sound, it also means leaving a lots behind me. so my family, i missed my friend. i missed the phone. i missed um the people in general. yeah. and also the one. so i need you guys a tropical countries. so definitely the item is the one, cuz it has 2 of them. all right, now g, a mazda wrapped the opportunity to work in germany and does not redirect. she is ready for whatever the future brings, be it in germany, nigeria,
