of course 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. the 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 street debate, eat us, give money 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 arkansas 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 struggles. the reasons why many nigerians one to my guess i need to stay in jail for 750 is time for my gm's list. they need to collect a phone to the reach. one, 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 meaning sleep or escape in your room, but has become synonymous with a burning desire to my bull. you know, you, these kind of floods want to move things i loved behind. so how is this amazing vision is this list? because i kind of invest the deluxe here. i just talked to mrs. go, just for green off costs. those to see going off by says, 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 t skills. but what he really wanted was a prestigious, wide color job play. a pause for years has upgraded that and i've been, you know, doing the front end of business is, was me. it's my degree my my size i you know when i tried 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 signing country. the u. n. 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, prospects, and overall quality of life. many nigerians do the same mean pairs of jobs before noon major the, this a is less than this, it does this kind of which includes a job for me. and also with my skew is my 3rd skills. i kind of also i that's as a part time job boy. so so a vehicle despite the global popularity of the nigerian, we're just the 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 missourians have resorted to using travel agents to assist them and their visa process. why best people need those classes? we need to consult on this because, and we sound like, let's say that immigration lawyer like the they have to go to the a spot that they are travelling. doesn't mean they know the requirements of really the go on the website to check their companies. yes, the way those are still the we, we of consultants know the extra documents to provide to make sure that this was a 100 percent of them given to them. yes. oh, we also prepare them. was a house to stay in front of because a lot, 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 move my feelings 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 be called be together again as a funding. yes. you know, if there's that you'll 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 has 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 ghana, uganda. and can you brain by 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 have the present, the amount that he hopes to double this number and explore to even more canyon work of 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 stuff the 2022 gun is youth unemployment rate stored. living points one full of things. a millions of young guardians are close bunkie searching for new jobs. many of them, sadly,

including those within central schools, only see themselves green becca, outside gonna waste that's one police. like you asked k and you'll 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 why the carrier was confused because this elaine befriend views from my boss. if we get to lend new ideas, think technology new them, we just didn't know if that's the key destination has been in europe and the america in fact, the gemini, or is 2nd only to the united kingdom, are stop destination use for the game unity as brook publishing a good night is also one of the countries, the e. u, has post promptly targeted with this migration reforms that foreclosed was killed lima and migration se into the office counseling the young people sick into trouble has also been imprisoned for some time. now that a key for close now is providing the advisory services for

a come in. so 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 luxury 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 professionals 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 pictures, but since you were lucky to find jobs outside your guns when they need some, don't even want to come about. hm. 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 late goes 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

frustration 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 given the chance i am taking the 1st flight out of here and never coming back. why? so i meant that just the entropy. no, i think above me having solutions so many problems and then still trying to box would be the 1st truck to thinking about pi, thinking up our main center thinking i buy a plastic or that would help me too many things. i wouldn't want to do that. i've had several of the challenges like these where i'm trying to do something bored. i mean, i get into the environment. there is no wi fi like i make me do stuff. there's no infrastructure. that guy gives 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 they do at the moment. how would you describe it's uh, older diet. so this guess of major uh, yeah, i might see things on walking, right,

but it's not going to be there. i'm sure i try is going to be a better place if we will contribute all thoughts to make it. okay. so you say it's going to be a better place, but what is the situation present? tom? yes, that's the reason why we are developing issue on the rights. we have multiple, a positive west on what he gets, but nobody lives up because 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 put medicine is one of the west affected by drop. uh uh, 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, west and country state is a 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, daniel reaching hoping that things would change for sure. i'm also hoping that my, my colleagues were also coming back to the country when they've developed themselves and all that. but most people, i just want to run a few inductance. there's no reason for you to be major. that is what everybody say . ok, let me come back to own desire here for a 2nd because you, 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 to get them. 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 i'll come back, compute manager, come up, cause the structure right that you just as appropriate price. when you 1st of problem, when you solve the problem, you create a bunch of meeting complementary. i get to know that to let you come back on create

an opportunity and you mentioned it but is okay, i do. i do. i agree. i agree because all these nice truck is you don't want to keep open for 62 years. we have people, you fall out what? no concern about the people that concerned about the 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 need to strike a deal with someone and government so big my dear come to reality i mean, are we talking about a country where you can literally, you know, say what we happened in this time? no secure, but you know, you fax truck to at 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 not for me, provided by the government. that should be able to do what we have talking about. gimme a 2nd because me that yes and 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 not. i've gotten that. yeah, i mean we do is accessible. i think i recall it for me please. so i think that we're coming from the play. so 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 said 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 to sort of the fact that people are running away because of money. it's a problem to me. you took an oath to save lives, but don't to her the me there. hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. let's just come back to 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 sense of belonging never beyond the level of being gray misstep that comes with a professional. you know, that's another country i won't be. i feel like will be the solution. if you say that we don't speeds but it's up to you. i it might have called the 9. yeah. am i correct now? yeah. the, i'm not as of your life into caring for people. it's a catch me for point to making sure that people are life, then you should do that by level of respect from the government. okay, no, that's the because because we've invoked the name of 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. you don't have a home because you have

a lot of shifts. 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'm ok. we've seen as many as i want to see. you understand? well, what happens to me, where do i go to of, to 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 country is the top, the least, the kind of the us euro, and only one african country featured on that list and that was gone. so if the idea is to bet your lives not really to leave in the abroad, is 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 gonna, you know, it is just turning 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

a many african countries which can support you in those fields. okay? so tell me one or 2 of the codes. can i use one of those? okay. yeah, i agree with you, so i must say that you know, you remember that the minutes i'm just trying to figure out if it's a fun to see about living in the west on wells, or if it's about truly improving your life. we have a system of sing 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 is in family. 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 me debates because that's not the yes you can uh and look to follow something. i wanted to think about solutions right. i completely agree with what you said, you understand having the shame is not just only about if you leave and you're forced to come back if you're feeling names area to you will have you so, so nobody wants to fail. there's also the, the issue of the glamour you mention,

why don't people go to other african countries? true. everybody wants to do it. why people, i don't know what, i don't understand it, but i would say these lastly, right? if 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 build 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 that 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 inputs that we want, but because we speak for many points of anger that we kind of just dismiss things will just have to absolutely look within. all right, so for your giving me a solution of how to stay and do you want to? yes, i think is that by you becoming the value pay are in wherever you find yourself. i

think you're by, you're thinking about the fact that you are the upsets through the country and not a liability thing about the fact that you guys have the phone provider. okay. so that purpose for living that you were talking about. so i yeah, at the beginning of this debate, we did have a very simple question. last 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 that 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 wanted to see the phone 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 chia mac got. you can, she's been living in berlin for a few years now and so far things are going pretty well. a 29 guarantees hans and 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 new opportunities to see how life is outside of major area and then get to grow into korea on every other 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 as for pushing it fits soon, leaving nigeria. that is with thousands of young's professionals,

are planning to do some of these and search off greener pastures, toddlers, to experience new places, and where culture or broaden the horizon for jam lock, like jani, it was the less the young software engineer from a number of days left nigeria in 2021 and came to berlin. they're very long term and a volunteer sleep like i have friends in building offerings across the 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 to any major as a, i could actually rent an apartment in now one of the best places boards. i take points in time, i just have to leave. but if it didn't come easy, because the mains leaving my family behind, leaving the cultural dom where i didn't used to live in the foot behind. and so i 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 word opportunities. european cities like berlin,

attract many nigerian professionals like gemma. other spot to jump had to are the united states, canada, or great britain, but was a new place come new challenges the they called us back to being in. tell me. i think the language on the call cultural, i would say the germans, i be reserved. so on the bureau cursing, germany is actually a lot like unlike many of our peers, jim aka has a good job back in 2022. every 2nd youth 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 want to leave on like a big top, you know,

environment to interface cuz like jimmy is really like to configure like strong economy level of job opportunities. and then the last, the time to do this was a mentor as habits so, and he 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 a brock 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. and all right now jim, i said wrapped the opportunity to work in germany and does not redirect. she is ready for whatever the future brings. be it in germany, nigeria,

or anywhere else in newark. if you're not from nigeria, you learned a new word today. jet pop showed me young africans they in their home countries should be migrates to search for better jobs. the topic is highly debatable and we would love to hear your thoughts. so please reach out to us on social media and i'll leave you with nigeria as very own iris star. her smashed head rush has been nominated for a grammy award. and the message is just perfect for today's show. it's all about hustling and working hard towards your goals. i'm gonna show you next time you've been there on dental feedback on
