Cigbojugha: Wetin concern social worker with your living conditions. Except if there is a reported case of child abuse ehnnn if not they have no business If you are talking about the nurse that visit when a baby is newly born well maybe the nurse can be looking around but there are lots of families in one bed or shared accommodation. A friend of mine has 4 children in a 2 bed . In her case it's what they can afford. I am not up to date with immigration requirements and if it relates to housing . Apart from if it's now a requirement then fair play , their country their rule. if not I see no issues 1 Like |

Chei I know Nigeria can be hard so if anyone doesnt want to go back I can respect that . But to bring a child into it ,seems so unfair to that child 6 Likes |

LagosismyHome: While you may have a point but try not to lose sight on the fact that people give birth for different reasons. Some because they want someone who will look after them at their old age and vulnerable moment and the ones who just want coz the society expect them to among other reasons so if someone in their bid to beat immigration control in their host countries decide to have a child then yeah it’s part of the game. It can become a problem if they renege from their parental responsibility and obligation to that child. So far as Western countries keeps tightening the noose on immigration and ways of acquiring residency people will adopt desperate means to manoeuvre through the system. I’ve met several people of both sexes who deliberately had babies just to manipulate the immigration system and it’ll keep happening. Whether it’s right or wrong is a different issue and subjective. 3 Likes |

birdmansoho: ''As men of honour, we join hands...'' However, I don't agree with the emboldened, but I understand from experience that desperation can drive people to do certain things. I also think it's interesting that you specifically mentioned ''caucasians'' in your post. The idea of getting married to someone simply for the purpose of getting a visa is fraud, and the person who does it for free by deceit isn't in any way better than those who pay for it. In my over 10 years in the UK, I only know of 2 Nigerian students who pursued the marriage route, the kind of caucasian women they got married to are the ones a decent fellow wouldn't touch with a bargepole. 9 Likes 1 Share |

claremont: Another way to interpret this is destroying the life of someone else in order to get what you want. End up dumping the lady with your kid once your documents are through. Find your perfect woman to settle down with and expect to live happily ever after, while there is a kid that needs a dad roaming the street with a mum that is left as an emotional wreck and low self esteem. People don’t stop to think of the long term damage actions like this cause they are only looking at the short term benefits. Most of these kids with absent fathers end up with mental health issues, join gangs, end up in prison, find it difficult to keep a relationship, job etc. What is left here is a trail of damage just because one person want documents to live in a country and later with their new perfect family every Sunday they will dress up go to church and be expecting God to answer their prayers after damaging so many lives. I also think it’s demeaning and insulting to call another human being trash. Karma is a bitch and we have to think very well about our actions. In the 1970s/80s when so many Nigerians had to return back home, a lot of them abandoned their kids with English nannies most of those kids ended up in care. It’s not today that the heartlessness of some Nigerians has shown its face, it’s in their DNA. You only need to look at their leaders to prove your point. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by birdmansoho: 12:37pm On Nov 15, 2019 |
dustydee: Many prefer them coz they’re usually unaware about using marriage to get papers. Non natives and people from other background or race are mostly informed about marriage for papers and will harbour the thoughts you’re with them for that purpose. 1 Like |

I send pounds via bank transfer to my aboki, he also has a pounds dom account and he transfers naira from his naira account to mine. But note that gtb charge 0.5%+vat (~£5 fee on £1000) for the transfer since the source of funds is from outside Nigeria. I'm not sure but I heard first bank don't charge a transaction fee (confirm with the bank sha). RalphJean: |
