Processing UK skilled worker visa
Jumtel noted that she thought she would be out of Nigeria within three months, but nothing happened for a year.
She said the woman who was training them was supposed to help them get jobs in the UK so they could obtain a skilled worker visa.
After a year, it became clear to Jumtel that the woman was not going to get any job despite all the preparations for the interview.
She lost R198k to a visa agent
That was how she lost R198K without getting any job or UK visa. The woman processing the job for them blocked everyone, and she returned to square one.
Unfortunately for Jumtel, she had resigned from her job, which was paying her R1K, hoping she would soon get a job and a visa to move to the UK. Jumtel later successfully moved to the UK after following the proper channels and getting a job and a UK visa.

Netizens took to the comment sections and shared their views:
