Health / Re: Lagos Gov’t Yet To Fix The Elevator That Killed Doctor In General Hospital by semasir: 6:43am On Apr 12 |
When people talk without adequate information and has a biased mindset, they'd never see positive or even progress at least. If there's nothing in Lagos State, why the rush, tell me what the Igbos have built in Lagos State that hasn't been matched or near enough by the indigenes... In case you dunno, the state has Silica Sand, Bitumen and Clay even Petroleum Arobaga: |

Religion / Re: Six Churches That Don’t Celebrate Christmas And Why by semasir: 9:00pm On Dec 25, 2023 |
This is wrong! Before the Catholic church, there was something and this was the church of Christ which started 33AD until the Roman Catholic popped up 600+ years later and when the likes of Luther sought for a return to the old order this brought about the evolution of churches as it were today from Methodist, Baptist and the likes despite most of their leaders wanting not to be named after the ideas they're leading.

This is a honest report but I have my own concerns for you which are that you could have chosen a school with a lower tuition and then you don't be that pessimistic either about a few things because this is a new phase. If I have your share of money, I feel I will be better a bit but life is all about chances/luck as well. |

Don't get it wrong, persons in that area won't just come online and say the place is this or that especially from what you've seen. Had this been done on fb, you'd get a better response than Nairaland I'm sure. My contention here is that you have to go back in the daylight and access, your point of view that you went late and now seeking opinions isn't needed. This is your personal life at stake even security info too. GreaterFuture: |

Wasn't shading you on that but I feel its have been nicer to ask around those who are there more than online especially that you also know quite a few will also give you a response to that effect. If only this is on a dedicated Badagry Forum Blog, might get much more response. GreaterFuture: |

Education / UK Stop Masters Students From Coming With Their Dependants From 2024 by semasir: 3:46pm On May 23, 2023 |
Just two days before the expected announcement on the dependents coming with the main applicants to the United Kingdom, the government has made a decision on the news. Why The UK Bans Dependants To Come With the Main Applicants NewStori had reported the news wherewith the UK is making plans to stop Masters students from coming with their families as dependants. The decision to stop this was anchored on the fact that there has been a surge on immigrants to the UK through this route and the government is concerned. Last year, 135,788 visas were granted to dependants of foreign students, nearly nine times the 2019 figure. The Position of the UK Prime Minister on Immigration Rishi Sunak, the UK Prime Minister had told ministers that the move would help bring migration down. He told the cabinet that the change which will begin in January 2024 will make a "significant difference to the numbers," according to No 10. The Implications of Students Visas Rise in the UK The umbrella body for British Universities, Universities UK (UUK) raised concerns on how dependant visas had led to challenges especially over family accommodation. According to HESA, an education data group, there were 679,970 international students in the UK in 2021/2022. Of these 307,470 were undergraduates, who already can't bring family members to the UK during their course. There were 372,500 postgraduates, of whom 46,350 are on research courses - the vast majority of them for PhDs, along with a small number of research-based masters degrees. Students coming to the UK with a visa need to provide documents proving their relationship to dependants, who have to pay £490 for a visa. Dependants are also required to pay the immigration health surcharge - an annual contribution between £470 and £624 towards NHS services.

It’s stuck in the dark ages! For Beautiful Cinderella, she questioned: Do you win based on merit or na connection na used win? 🤔 How Backdrop Fell On Newscaster Recently Via Live Broadcast In what looked like a script off of a fictional novel, the unbelievable happened on Thursday, 18th May 2023 as the nation’s premiere TV station, the NTA when the wooden backdrop used to identify the program on air fell on the presenter of the program on Live TV. The presenter literally shouted Jesus and ran out of the stage. Other Awards Won By The NTA... The Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) also announced that it won the Most Impactful Media Award at the The 2023 Nigerian Broadcasting Awards. Furthermore, the NTA News Caster, Ruth Aguele won the Newscaster of the year Award at the broadcasting awards. The NTA is Africa's largest indigenous TV broadcast station but has not been able to leverage on that hence it only has following from persons mostly in the rural areas within the Nigerian landscape.

These documents are very important to attach on your Form A application which will be processed by your bank: - Duly completed Form A with the tracking number - Passport - School admission offer letter (this can be the conditional or unconditional) - Invoice generated via Flywire as well as any other from the school with the payment guide - Undergraduate certificate - Letter of an authority to debit your account (this is a letter you'd write and address your bank to debit your account of the sum of money (usually in Pounds) Meaning of The Stages on the Application Dashboard Explained Stage 1 – ADB_REVIEWER This is the first stage.

A mail notification will also be sent to the applicant to this effect. How to Successfully Cancel Form A Application and Re-Apply When making a Form A application, it is advised that you exercise extreme caution. This is because – once you confirm and submit your application, you will not have an opportunity to go back to make any correction. The only change you can make to an already-submitted application is to upload additional documents. You cannot change the account number, the bank, name, address, phone number, or whatever. However, you cannot rule out mistakes, or in other cases, the bank you chose may simply refuse to treat your application for whatever reason. Here’s how to successfully cancel your application and re-apply: - Login - Tap Form A - Go to History - Go to the extreme right of the application - Click the dropdown - Click Cancel - Enter the reason for cancelation - Upload the supporting document (if any) - Upload a blank document (if none) Submit Credits: https://www.newstori.com/how-to-apply-for-forex-online-using-cbns-trade-system-form-a-to-pay-school-fees/ 1 Like |
