People who faced challenges after applying for visa
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that while many Nigerian citizens see the United Kingdom as a great place to find greener pastures, others chose Canada.
However, the relocation process was not favourable to the unlucky ones who either got deported or banned.
A Nigerian man gave a travel agent N15 million to get a Canadian visa and employment for him, but it did not go as he expected.
The heartbreaking story was shared on TikTok by Grama Shasha, who revealed the man planned to relocate to Canada with his family.
The man first paid an initial amount of N5 million and was promised a visa to Canada for himself and his family.
After some months, he only got a job appointment letter which, according to the agent, would enable him to work in Canada.
The travel agent then disappeared into thin air. Trying to figure out what to do, the man approached another agent with the job offer letter.
The new agent used the job offer letter to apply for a Canadian visa for the man, but upon review by the embassy, it was discovered that the job was fake.

In recent months, Nigeria has recorded a significant rise in the number of its citizens relocating abroad for greener pastures.
This is mostly due to the harsh economic realities in the country.
