Good day everybody.

Please, my total payable tuition fee is £16,950. I got discount of £4,000 and I have paid £7,500 so far, leaving me with a balance of £5,450 payable, my school is located outside London £1023 x 9 = £9207.
A total of £14,657 is needed as POF for me. Using oanda’s exchange rate is will be needing NGN7,415,410

My dad is my sponsor and he has NGN6,954,930
I have about NGN3,000,000 in my personal account, which makes up the POF.
Now the issue is in my account I have withdrawn and deposited funds in it since the past 28days but it has never gone below NGN2,000,000. To be clearer in the last 28days I started with an opening balance of NGN7,000,000 but right now I have about NGN3,000,000.

Please will the inconsistencies in my account be an issue for visa purposes.

If you are worried about funds in account not been enough, pay additional school fees.

Keyworkers in the UK, are majorly from the BAME sector of the society........

If people would naturally be affected, it would be from the BAME sector........


What is saving African countries are - :

The virus obviously went through the population in Nigeria for instance, did what it could to those whom it could affect, and the rest went on with life.
Apart from what happened in Kano for a while, there were no generally noticeable excess deaths and so the people not unreasonably concluded that Covid na scam and went on with their lives and destroyed economy.

I think what saved African is the excessive consumption of anti-malaria medicine ..... we’ve been struggling with malaria from birth and most of our immune system would have been strengthened by these anti- malaria medication thereby making our system resistant to COVID-19 with us knowing.....

That’s the only explanation why we never die finish for COVID-19 for Africa ......

Poor people tend to live in close proximity to one another, that’s one school of thought.
I’m surprised no one has mentioned that this vaccine is being tested on the poor people of Brazil mainly.

I can only assume that Africans that have the virus will be asymptomatic , so they just get on with their daily lives.

I'm having a hard time knowing why this narrative is being pushed around in the UK. The site below shows that BME make up less than 11% on average of the total key workers across the UK across the key worker areas.

Site - https://www.health.org.uk/chart/black-and-minority-ethnic-workers-make-up-a-disproportionately-large-share-of-key-worker

The ONS also shows that white ethnic group still makes over 80% of the UK's population which would mean majority status across most of the workforce in most occupations excluding those that majorly serve minority ethnic groups.

ONS - https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/culturalidentity/ethnicity/articles/ethnicityandnationalidentityinenglandandwales/2012-12-11

Is there a reason why this narrative of BAME making up the bulk of NHS key workers is being pushed around? Even the NHS site has white ethnic group making almost 80% of its workforce (excluding care and GPs in training - the 'trust jobs')

I agree because my husband and I have had this discussion before. .... apart from one job he worked in east london. Majority of his other work and during training it is majority white ethnic group that he has observed works in the NHS

Well, different strokes for different folks. There are numerous advantages when your spouse bears a different last name from you here in the UK and if you are a business person. You both are distinct individuals to any client thus creating that professional outlook.

As the marriage certificate don show say A & B are now H&W and you both have and continue to have 'koinonia' along with the usual newspaper change and affidavit, the usual admonition is to let her be - use it to your advantage.

I'm suspecting Labour being behind this narrative since they are migrant friendly. Yes, the bulk of low level staff in the key worker sectors MAY have a disproportionately higher level of BAME staff but overall na 'oyinbo' still get their country.

What I can think about is maybe at the start of the covid. A lot of white took off and took time off. While Bame felt it more money to their pocket and either were taking more shifts in the frontline or been forced by their supervisors to take these shift even without adequate PPE

Ah, that would make sense. Of course the white folks have all the support they can need while most BAME staff have to battle with No Recourse to Public Fund. Unfortunately, we have also had very high death rates among the BAME group too.
