Gentlemen:

Don't be so desparate for an airline job that you will put your long-term health and immediate personal safety at risk in this sh*t hole. There are diseases lurking in Africa your doctor has never heard of (and has no treatment for), your digestive system will be permanently damaged, you will be targeted for every shakedown you can imagine--including kidnapping, rape and extortion, and your life will also be in danger every time you fly in Nigerian airspace.

Not to mention that when a legitimate company tries to find you to offer a real job, you may as well be on the dark side of the moon. Trust me, you're better off doing anything than this.
