About Nnenna RG Channel
Nnenna RG was set up with the main aim of sharing useful information about studying and living in Sweden.
Prior to this time, I had searched for this kind of material on YouTube, but they were very limited. I had challenges settling down in Sweden due to this information gap. This is why the channel Nnenna RG was created. To help prospective students with information ranging from school selection, application processes, getting scholarships, and settling down in Sweden, amongst other things.
Over the past few months, we have gotten thousands of views from people all over the world, this is seen in the comments and engagement in the comment section of the videos.
In addition, several personal consultations have been administered. Thousands of students have benefitted from the information I share first by helping them with decision-making, putting in applications, and settling down after they arrive in Sweden.
