justwise:


No that is not enough, you need to do PCR 72 hours before departing the UK and complete and pay for another 2day on Nigeria international travel portal , you need to show evidence of all these at the airport in the UK and in Nigeria, they take this very seriously,

When you are living Nigeria you have to do another PCR then when you arrived back in the UK you have to do another 2day test, All paid by you,

Arrived Nigeria yesterday and went through all the procedure and will go through more,



After doing all this, one go pack better stress put for head, in Nigeria............ wink

Make una just siddon jejely for UK, that fake drug dealer go soon talk say, we are too poor to travel........ cheesy

I think 5 out of 10 Nigerians that are living in UK are born wicked. Most of these guys have terrible characters, I used to warned new comers to stop depending on them on any money related issues or shelters.
An innocent lady got stranded at Gatwick entry weeks ago having sugarcoated heavily before leaving Nigeria. Londoners are not friendly, unfortunately most of them are living fake life on social media. I encourage everyone to plan well before leaving Nigeria. Best wishes!

Honestly this question is worth answering o! I remember two months ago when I wanted to travel, and I came here to ask about staying in dartford because a “friend” is accommodating me. Lmaoooo long story short, I was already at muritala airport when she told me her mom is doing birthday and I can’t come to the house again, I was officially stranded hehehe what a silly excuse. I spent over 450 pounds doing my quarantine last minute at an hotel, how distraught I was. Oh well, now I’m settled in apartment with a good work from home part time job.

- UK resident only eats one meat....... Nigerian visitor takes 4 ........

- UK resident is size 8...... Nigerian resident is size 8 ...... UK residents shoes go begin witness unauthorised access........ grin

- UK resident is a recluse..... Nigerian visitor go bring unauthorised friend's, without seeking consent....... grin Then go chop all the chopables and drink all the drinkables......... grin

Nigerian visitor would always selfishly spend their BTA, whilst been a parasite on UK residents bank account....... grin

ETC ETC ETC ETC ....... grin

Good evening ya’ll. Does anyone know if you need to take kids to the High Commission in London to apply for ETC (for minors). I called taya today and kept getting a Full mailbox.

I want to apply for my kids but need to know if I can go myself on behalf of my kids. Anyone with experience doing this should please advice. Thank you.

Please after creating your profile, on the next page where you have to fill in passport number and address, did you fill your Nigerian address or the address of where you are going in the UK?

Of course they don't take it seriously, why would they?
UKVI was playing around when it places a "20 hours during term time" warning on student visa stickers in their passports and on their BRPs.
Feel free to work as long as you like.

What if you find one Nigerian from Nigeria who did NONE of these things? In fact the guest hates the heater because it gives them headache, guest buys groceries before their host does, chose a utility bill without being asked and paid consistently, cooked, cleaned etc, but when the host could not find any excuses, suddenly "just needs their space". Obodo oyinbo! Hian!

My people, please does any one know the procedure for dependant biometric capture? Why does it cost an additional £125 and will the principal applicant still need to do the same after using the ID check app? Those who have applied/switched visas from within the UK can anyone help out please?

I saw your earlier query.
The 125 is the UKVCAS (think TLS) fee and cant be avoided, and its only for children or people unable to use the app, so if you've used the app, you're fine.
