Please to the UK ancestors. I'll like to know if it's better to get a new phone here in Nigeria or I should wait till I get to the UK because I need to change phone. Your candid response will be greatly appreciated as my flight is in 2 weeks time

Thanks so much, taken!

One of you should go and bring those kids. If you had a teenager among them, it would have been a bit easier but they all under 10 years.

LagosismyHome:


I don't know about 3years but my youngest sister travelled so many times with unaccompanied minor to different countries. She was always well taken care of and never had a bad experience....

That been said, since its 3 kids, and the youngest is still so young . I would go bring them if it was me. Especially if it not a direct flight ....

Same people complaining of racism here, are the same ones saying Peter Obi cannot be president of Nigeria because he is Ibo or Tinubu president because he is Yoruba. Same people who will refuse their sons or daughters to marry people of other tribes because of some centuries old prejudices still being propagated.

Buy in Nigeria and on Nairaland. The technology section has too many phones that you'll buy and not have to worry about payment plans.

Lexusgs430 has pixel phones for sale sef from time to time

For my husband, we used just our court marriage certificate and wedding pictures (traditional and white) as evidence.

I wonder why Nigerians feel the need to provide evidence of whatsapp chats and personal stuff, reeks of overdo and desperation etc

When I passed my driving test some months ago, it was £60 for 2 hours i paid to my driving instructor on the test date.....

Same here, I booked 2hrs on the test day like I normally book for normal lessons. 1hr warm up drive and 1hr for test and back home. No extra charges. £35/hr in my area for a manual car.

Newbie123, you may want to read the experience and outcome of eyesaswide on pages 449 & 495. Similar but not exactly the same.
Thanks leef2022 for the breakdown. The OP might need to provide clarity. On face value, there are some loose ends.
leef2022:
S[he] started a job but left after it took a toll on the individual.
S[he], asked to be settled for hours/shifts worked, oga employer said month end.
Month end elapsed, employer now claims it was testing testing by the mic (probation/placement).
The op now needs advice as what to do on next visit to employer, noting that the anger within want to do exhibition....
leef2022:
The op wrote the question in vex mood. S[he] wants to know what to do, to earn wages worked for, other than visiting and maybe scatter ground . ..
Newbie123:
... ...
At the beginning of last month, I did one housekeeping job from 8-5 after which I said I wasn't doing again cos it was extremely stressful.
They said I'll have to wait till month end.
Today is 4th and stories are beginning to enter like it was trial shift, I was on the laptop for 3 hours (I was for one hour) I didn't work up till 5, they will send mail...
Please what do I do besides going?
I've been there twice now and honestly, if I go there the third time, the anger I'm feeling may cause me to do things.
Please help

Ohkay, is it not safe? Someone told me the air hostesses take good care of kids till their parents pick them up...
they do take care of them amazingly. I have done this severally for my siblings when I didn't want headache.
They are treated same way as 1st class ticket travellers. They dnt stay on any queue. On their flights, the captain of the flight is made aware of them.
They’ll stay in the first or business class lounge if any transits.. they’ll be taken off the plane by the airline and then taken through all security check points..they dnt stress.. when they reach their destination it’s same thing through customs.. and then onto their luggage. They will wait with them and call the contact information and wont hand them over to anyone else until the assigned pick up person comes.
They never ever go through any process alone.
The airline assigns people to them THROUGH everything from start of trip till end.
My problem is the 3 year old.. tht one is a baby. If you are exploring this option then choose direct flight

How sure are you they'll be well cared for during layover? Please don't take that risk and seem like a negligent parent (God forbid anything goes wrong).
they are well taken care of..

Honestly if you're genuinely married, marriage certificate is what is needed. If they are in doubt, they should go and verify the certificate.

Just like submitting B.Sc certificate with final year class group pictures as evidence for being a graduate.
