This is true to some extent cheesy

Until many of them are ready to lower their standards, they may stay single for long.

Hello there,

Were you a Pharmacist in Naija, I read couple pages back that you wanted to write PEBC EE and now you wanted to switch to nursing, is that correct?

Hello, pls be careful about making money transactions on anonymous forums like this. Reach out to Panfol investment inc in Etobicoke(4167431500) . It’s a registered company and they always have great rates. I encourage anyone that needs to exchange money to reach out to them. I used them a few years ago when I was an international student and I needed to receive money for my tuition from Nigeria.

There is something about the e services payment platform I don't understand, seems debit cards are not accepted the reason why I decided to think of the option of someone in Canada paying for me.. below are screen shot of my conversation on my aor group, notice the comment of people not in Nigeria too

most debits cards here have a limit of 1000 cad and credit card 2000 cad or 1000cad. Unless you ask for an increase in limit. So debit wont work as the application fee is above.

It's just 500cad I need to pay..
I paid the main application fee in September when submitting.. they asked me to pay the rprf this week
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by Sholaystar4me(m): 6:49pm On Nov 28, 2020
why not continue in that line, why do you wanna switch course, there are lot of Nigerians working as a Pharmacist here, if you still love your profession, doing the boards and acing is very possible, otherwise, you can go ahead with your plan, if your mind is already made up.

Thank you....I thoroughly considered a lot of factors and my mind is made up. And you’re right..I know of a few Nigeria trained Pharmacists that are practicing but it’s not for me(anymore).

Not a problem. Do you mind sharing some of the things you considered, that informed your decisions, don't mind learning from it, I can email you, cos I am studying PharmD myself, presently at U of T ( a switch from IT).

Thanks

There’s nothing wrong with this, especially if they have good jobs and are well to do. Most people don’t even like themselves when they’re broke, not to talk of others liking you. It’s the way life works. Wanting someone with a stable job and good finance is definitely not ojukokoro.

ok. I have heard. Come first and see how majority are lamenting. As for me i no send them now because when i was hustling they no send me. All i'm saying is they should be open minded, 9ja guys dont mind coming home to pick babe. 9ja ladies wont do it as the guys is likely a user or scam. Once again Nigerian ladies should lower their expectations. The loneliness and frustration is biting them hard.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JehY3YaJdVE watch this, both work in same company but have different backgrounds, guy has 26k in student loans from a normal family, girl has zero student loans and from a rich home. Is the lady not better than him Siddon there o

This technique of threatening ladies to lower standards or they’ll die of frustration is not new. It’s the regular with Nigerian guys grin if you cannot meet the standard, move. With the comments I’m seeing from Nigerian guys here, I understand why girls won’t send you people. The world has moved forward, make una upgrade too. Feel free to pick wife from Naija, it’s a free world. Someone has a standard, if you can’t meet it, move. Stop the threats of loneliness and stuff.

Wanting someone to accept you at your lowest is a normal human feeling but you’re not entitled to anyone’s acceptance. That is the way life works! I won’t be giving any further comment concerning this topic.

All the best
