THE BOTTOM LINE

It is very important to sound a note of warning to young Nigerians rushing to study in Ukraine due to their libra medical school admissions and cheap tuition fees, that the rate of unemployment in Ukraine is very high. The chance of working during and after your studies is very slim. Furthermore, a bitter civil war is taken place there presently, due to Russia annexation of the Crimean region. Do not near the region.

If you studied with the English language in Ukraine where English is not their mode of expression, you can never be fitted into their system, get ready to relocate or return to face Nigeria unstable and unorganised unemployment market.

That’s all on Ukraine Embassy in Nigeria visa services information.
