Abeg experts in the house help me out here. The time to get our Canadian mobile is here and I need your advice.

We have used our French data for a few months now (20 euros per month) but it is time to get a Canadian mobile plan.

We used textme plus our French mone but time to do a full switch.

What mobile data do you use. We are in the GTA. Does 50 dollars Γ  month for 40 GB with Freedom mobile make sense?

Huge gulf in mobile communication between Canada and France by the way. The gulf is scary.

The best way to get the cheapest rate in Ontario is to play them at their own game. Sign up and after 2 days call them and tell them you want to cancel. They will ask you why, tell them you got a cheaper plan from another carrier, in other not to loose you, they will offer you a reduced price, take it and after 2 days, call them again that you want to cancel with the same reason, they will try again to keep you, take the new price and simultaneously do the same thing with other carriers, at the end you may end up paying $20 instead of the $50 quoted on their website. Once you get the best deal from any of them and the other carrier can't match it,you can now cancel one finally

I didn't know this till I was speaking with a colleague who was using the same plan with me but pay 50% cheaper price than me and that is when I knew the trick and swung into action. I played Roger's and Virgin till I got a deal too good to be true. You really need to understand the marketing tricks in this country else soap go enter ya eye grin

Modified: Make sure you read the fine print and play the game within the free cancellation period. I know Roger's allows for 30 days free cancellation without penalty

but you have this mark on your arms ba. You also took the ones for measles, chickenpox and polio as a child πŸ™„.

Honestly when ppl say I have phobia na real wa.. let me add smallpox, tetanus, polio, and probably tb taken as children.Plus the immunity your mum transferred to you was probably linked to vaccination

If it was us migration you'd take vaccination by force.. your medicals require vaccination . Almost 6/7 vaccines in one day

When they release malaria vaccine se you no go collect ?

Yes as a child. But now wey I don be adult. Things have changed. πŸ€’πŸ˜

But if the vaccine is safe I don’t mind.
If the safety is what is really important to you then you'd search out those facts with verifiable data in the country you live in.

I use freedom and it's pretty cheap and reliable, after few months of usage, call them and they'll give you discount, the only con is that it isn't available everywhere, like if you live in Calgary and you're traveling to Edmonton, you might not really have service till you get to Edmonton outside that, it's awesome

Thank you so much for this tip. I will check with them.

Greetings house, please I would like to ask some question.
I would be flying down to Canada by month end and I have two(2) stops....One in Frankfrut (16+hours)and the other in Montreal(4+Hours).
Do I need to get any mobile adaptor to charge my phone during the transit?
What type of food or snacks can I put in my backpack to help me stay fit for the 2days journey?
I would appreciate answers. Thanks

Many Nigerians take such things for granted. When Covid started ravaging places like New York and Italy, there were theories that it was going to decimate Africa (especially Nigeria) once it gets there, especially given the high human density in places like Lagos. Many people were scared. Regardless, when Covid got into Lagos, it barely did any damage. Nigerians were barely washing hands or using face masks, yet nothing happened to them. This surprised many public health experts who had expected carnage. When it went for long enough and Covid didn't seem like a problem in densely populated places like Lagos, one theory advanced was that the many vaccines people in Lagos certainly took in the childhood may have been responsible for the inherent immunity they developed against flu-like viruses like Covid. While nobody knows for certain, there's likely some truth there.

Many Nigerians don't know the good the vaccines they took in childhood was. They grow up, listen to American propaganda and suddenly think vaccines are Bill Gates trying to take over the world. The same Bill Gates that sponsored their polio vaccine....dey play

Hello everyone. Please lawyers in the house that have completed their evaluation with the NCA, how long did it take for Nigeria Law School to send your transcripts to NCA? I have been on this for 3 months and I just received word from the NCA that they don't yet have my transcripts from the Law School. All other documents have been received except for law school transcripts. Please any form of help/tips/pointers will be greatly appreciated.

American propaganda sees to it that most parents generally do not have their kids vaccinated. This is predominant both in the white and black communities and for different reasons. For blacks, years of being used as experimental subjects makes them skeptical of trusting the government and taking their vacccines, while for whites, it's sometimes driven by religion. The good thing is that the low incidence of viruses and earlier years of immunization has reduced the incidence of diseases in children in the country.

$1 difference. I use like 3 daily. But I pay once. The fare covers till I reach my destination.

3-4 months is ideal.

Outside of the above, get a contact at the Law School to help you follow up.
