My brother is securing an MBA for me in the UK for me to relocate to the UK. I'm afraid if it's a wise move or I should reject the offer. I'm married with no kid yet.

Very wrong move o ...... ASUU would soon end their strike. Just do your MBA in Nigeria.......

The MBA is not the main focus. It's the relocating.

Why not? If he can secure it for you then go for it 100%. The fact that you haven’t got any kids yet is a bonus. Being married doesn’t stop you. If you somehow finish your MBA and get job offers here then you can always stay and have your partner to join you for a new life, giving you a good start to a family life. Not saying you dont have a great life in Nigeria or anything. But good luck in whatever decision you go with (Wink wink - Come to the UK lol).

What do you want in life..... only you know. This will help guide if its a wise move or rejection

Strangers here don't know if you are employed or still looking so if you still job looking and a comment says reject then how that one good. Similarly if you are on 100 million a year salary and someone says its a wise move how that one good

Lemonade finance for your first question.

I use Lemonade Finance to send money to Africa. You get 10.00 GBP when you verify your account and send over 100.00 GBP with my referral link - https://referral.lemonade.finance/invite/EZje

Is there a difference between the enhanced e passport and standard e passport?
I just saw on the commission 's website that they are suspending biometric capture for the enhanced e passport and I quickly went to check my y application form and saw that I applied for standard e passport renewal. Mm y appointment is April 27.
I hope this their update doesn't affect me.

Hello Nairalanders,
My dependant's visa application was submitted the first week of February. Didn't hear any more thing from UKVI.
I called last week and was told the decision was made on ~February 14th. I asked them to escalate.

Out of curiosity, I went to the post office today, and speculatively presented page 1 of the application form. The woman came back with a BRP in a brown envelope. She asked for the Passport and vignette, I could not present it. She said the BRP was received by them since February 20th.

I called UKVI again. The lady rudely told me that my issue was escalated, and I should wait for another 15 working days.

Does anyone have an idea where my dependant's passport maybe? UKVI? Home Office? TelePerformace? IS there any number or contact that folks have used previously, please? Help me biko.


Pls once you get the number kindly send to me too . I’m in the same situation since 8th February

That's what comedians are there for - to stretch boundaries.
But Smith is an ass, what's he trying to prove - so-called "love", by committing assault and battery in full view of the world and on a small chap.
If na Dave Chappelle or Hamish Buress for instance, Smith won't have slapped him, because those ones will attack him back.

I think he should be arrested and his award taken away.

He has set himself up for comedians to play with. He’s going to be the joke of most award nights going forward

Thanks for your input, well noted and understandable. The sponsorship is for the recent Care Worker visa, what is bothering me is that the UK government changes rules and regulations. Just few months ago, care workers couldn't be sponsored and it wasn't on the shortage occupation list, what if at the time of renewal, care workers couldn't be sponsored anymore or the regulation at the time doesn't make it easy to get sponsorship. That's all I am worried about and again care work is still an unskilled job. If it were to be the likes of the Nurses and other healthcare professional jobs, maybe I wouldn't be worried.

Thanks all the same guys. I have a 5 year sponsorship offer as well, it's just that the one that is offering 3 years pays a lot more.
i will advise you take the 5 years offer

He just gave comedians a lot jokes to tell now, and he risks being cancelled. What a numpty!

Some things are out of line even for these so called comedians. It's like someone has cancer or a serious illness and he makes a joke out of it. That's insensitive. Jada suffers from alopecia and she has been very public about it

He is lucky that Chris declined to press charges but I’m not sure we have seen the end of this.

How many black comedians will take a chance to poke on him ? Very few established ones

Alopecia is not a disability.

Jada and Smith know this industry more than anyone and should not be violent because of a joke,yes they can get angry and boycott the next Oscar but hitting a comedian because of a joke is childish

Ricky Gervais has said worse during his previous Oscars presentations but nobody assaulted him and sure Smith wouldn’t even dare it

I agree - the Academy should withdraw the award.
Irrespective of the merits or otherwise of the joke about his wife's hair and how he felt about it, resorting to violence, and on the Academy's premises before the whole world to boot, is a no-no.

Unless the pressure increases on Academy I don’t think they have the backbone to withdraw the award

Aesthetically yes and the enhance e passport requires NIN, as it is also inputted on the data page. Also somthing about chip or e-chip, sorry not too sure. I have read the whole reason for the suspension of issuance and still can’t understand how this helps the situation or at least any of the grievances. They just do not want to work.
