far better abroad. Regardless of your tribe, you're treated as brothers and sisters. Ghanaians too. I had a robust relationship with one. He's such a great brother. Anyone in doubt should try any of the kokoyes( Mexicans) . You go see madness, confam. Dem no even send dem pikin.

East or west, north or south, no place like Nigeria. Those who ran back home to join politics under the guise of serving their father land would know better. Ask femi gbajabiamila with his long stay in America if he could afford to school in havard. Ovie omo-agege too. That's why I didn't blame gbaja during ASUU strike last year when he posted the picture of himself taking lectures at havard

Cos average Naija is an oppressor-in-waiting… Waiting for the right time to corruptly enrich himself..
folks like you adulate them… but the odds of you becoming a local government chairman in Naija are like 1 out of 5 million. So you’ll die a pauper and be buried with your lofty dreams

sukkot:
your funny. try comedy. bro its all about the dollars. if you like show up from mars without papers but you have the 40 thousand dollars a year tuition , they will enrol you sharp sharp

Asour:


This isn't correct.

A US institution's Admission letter is almost always more than enough to GUARANTEE a VISA so a school need not be fraudulent to secure paperwork for prospective students.

9jaRealist:


Don’t worry, you’ll come back as a Mexican - or Honduran!

sukkot:
bro millions of mexicans walk in through the border illegally and many attend universities without papers

Asour:


Now you're exaggerating.

Controlla123:


If I report her, dem go say I dey find the downfall of my fellow Nigerian

sukkot:
google SANCTUARY STATES. in those states no one is allowed to ask about your immigration status. you soundd like someone who has not been on a plane

Asour:


Saying there are Millions of Illegal migrants in US is different from saying their are Millions of Illegal migrant STUDENTS registered as bonafide student in US Universities.

And you know the one I mean.

An admission to a US school more than likely GUARANTEES a Visa so why the illegality when you're already paying tuition.

sukkot:
you are assuming that everyone trying to enter the USA has education in mind. these mexicans troop in through the border illegally to do manual labor. it is after many years of dead end manual labor they decide maybe college is a better option. so they move to a sanctuary state and enrol in college

Asour:


The bane of this thread is a Post graduate STUDENT migrant in a US university FROM NIGERIA NOT Mexico.

Your comparison with Mexico farm hand migrants is OFF. Since I'm referring to a Nigerian bonafide STUDENT!

sukkot:
you said its impossible to be in university in the usa and be illegal. dont shift the goalpost . accept your defeat like a man

Asour:


Quote me where I said that.

I'm waiting.

Asour:


That's US culture.

In Nigeria (this fellow just came from Nigeria) people AVOID having to involve the police as much as possible in any matter. It would take time to get used to the US way.

Also the paper issue should be dispelled by him being a student.

Do you reckon a bonafide US graduate student is an illegal immigrant?
Is that possible?

Eriokanmi:
I'm not even a politician. I'm more comfortable than most of them dying to occupy political offices. If only those chasing politics could pray that God shows them the way, they'd hate politics with passion.

sukkot:


obviously you thought it impossible hence your bolded question. NEXT

BigIyanga:

It’s impossible. If you’re a bonafide student in in school, you can never be an illegal immigrant.

BigIyanga:

This comparison is out of place. You need to know the difference btw non-immigrant and immigrant visa processes first.
A bonafide student in the US, even though with expired visa cannot be classified as illegal immigrant.

College Admission Policies
Undocumented students may incorrectly assume that they cannot legally attend college in the United States. However, there is no federal or state law that prohibits the admission of undocumented immigrants to U.S. colleges, public or private.

Asour:


Thanks for confirming that was your opinion of my thoughts.
However, I never said it's Impossible. I asked a question.

Nevermind that it's in the millions as you've claimed.

Again my point is that why the hassle for illegality when the an admission Almost guarantees a VISA.
Why take the window when being a bonafide student opens the door for you.

sukkot:
may is different from CANT

sukkot:
SOME peoples visa got denied. hence the illegality

Asour:


So why was the statement included?

If legal limitations don't apply to an immigrant, isn't it LITERALLY implied that such an immigrant is assumed legal?

sukkot:
you know why I can have this conversation boldly with you ? Because I did it. Went to visit my brother in Chicago and I loved it so much at the time and overstayed my visa and became illegal. While illegal I got my degree in Chicago and graduated. Of course I rectified my status later but the point is I was illegal and got a degree from the USA . So this is experience talking.

Asour:


There's a difference between one with an expired VISA (but who came documented) which you said you are & an undocumented immigrant, which the Mexicans usually are.

In your case the Institution failed to run a check through the US immigration on your stay legality — even though you were not undocumented. And that's a gap. However YOU GOT a VISA to the US First.

Eriokanmi:
Nobody said he should be quiet. He made the right move. I only harped on his decision to pay so much on a rent as a student when there were cheaper options for him as suggested by the moniker i responded to. He can't even confront the police in that case cos his source of funds would he questioned. He'd be exposing himself to needless issues , if he does that. As a student, you have a whole lot of options available
to you, when it comes to cheaper accommodation. I guess he wantedprivacy and do big boi, the naija style, which doesn't work for many. You cut your coat according to your material.

Asour:


That's US culture.
