Dear Admin,

I am filling my CAS shield now and i need your urgent support. Actually, based on my POF i am going to UK with my husband and we intend to come back and pick our children after 4 months.

What should be answer for ARE YOU APPLYING FOR VISA WITH DEPANDANT CHILDREN?

Vignette is for 3 months I think. Why not get the visa and come pick them up before it expires to avoid complications with the coming rules

Izzou has given you the summary.. ROI on Uber/Bolt is very poor either as a partner driver or investor. It sucks. How can Keke riders be paying up keke in a year ? and you can't do same with a corrolla.
Ehailing companies with stupid fares.. #600 for air-conditioned taxis. Keke won't even look at you twice for #600 charter.

Last year . Bajaj okada was 400k. Delivery is 9k weekly, or 40k monthly based on your rental agreement. In a year, you would've recouped your initial investment.
You can't try that with Uber..

Seems many drivers here now own their cars. Just 2-3 years back, if a partner says 25k weekly (with partner responsible for servicing, insurance & papers) was too small, many drivers would come for his head.

The ROI has been unreasonable for many years now, especially since most partners bought their cars as tokunbo

Not on my laptop my laptop is safe I am talking of my personal phones.... my own condam phone I use. How do you find malware on a iPhone. They will be talking of how much I spend that I spend a lot etc

Same recommendation, format your phone.

If malware has been installed, travelling to Lagos will not solve the issue, people spy on others using malware from the other side of d world, so distance is not a barrier except there's something else you've not mentioned

Since you know they installed spyware on your laptop why not take it to a technician to have it formatted properly, and follow basic protocols to prevent it reoccurring...not sure why you have to go to Lagos.

I am actually making some money from this platform too, why do u people like writing trash.
08161333339 whatsapp me for evidence.

AM just an investor not marketing the coy

People were also making money from mba capital and mmm. Doesn't mean it's not ponzi.

Simplest way to know you're in a ponzi is when a company that claims to be making stupendous profits keeps looking for new "investors", why arent they reinvesting their humongous profits to grow?

...be wise

ellaV:
I ..... behaving like Anambara Men…it pays to be a loving husband and father ,it’s a seeds u are sowing and u will reap from it.
In loving memory of my dad.

...you still have lessons to learn. You probably got married to your current husband based on assumptions and generalisations . Continue looking for anambara men, they are the solution to your problem

Don't let tinubu have heart attack..what he betrayed the nigerians and the collective south for 8 years for?

siraj1402:
Pls MOD

Your appointment was terminated middle of the month. In reality what they owe is 1/2 month salary. Dont because of 1/2 month salary damage the possibility of a good reference in future. Your next employer will likely check with them before your confirmation or job offer

I got a huge contract through my brother's company.

The contract is securely in my possession now and I've been fully paid. Initially, the plan was for my bro to supply me the materials

But the issue now is the quotation he's giving me is way higher than what I'm getting elsewhere.

I've asked him to beat down his price but he's adamant. I plan on sidelining him if he doesn't do the needful.

Guys any thoughts on this?

Let your brother know you have a much lower price somewhere and instead offer him a commission for bringing the deal.

Next time lock in your contracts, you cant just tell your bro to supply, you should have discussed the price and specifics about what he will gain.

yes ! I can afford it from my Nigeria investment! So am talking from what am seening to guide others especially those on a budgets ,taking loans etc . My brother that was driving a Honda 2013 in Nigeria started using bicycle in Ireland ( is that progress or retrogression) when if friend have moved to 2016 ! He was living in 2 bedroom in abuja then in Ireland he housing shortage to crisis level he started staying in shared room for 400 euro per month (paying 300k to share room not even house) is that progress after paying 12000 euros ! Then they used several scheme like stamp 1 visa stamp 2 to make it difficult for you to get professional job after graduation ! with a Master degree you be doing physical slave work in the cool ! He back in Nigeria and started working rearranging his life ! Sadly even with 12000 euro Msc na level 9 firs give am same with 60000 Naira msc from Ekiti state university.

Now I see why an "experienced investor" can promote MBA capital as quality investment, when we wey no know market could discern from its fundamentals that it is ponzi.

1. Riding bicycle is a not a sign of poverty abroad. I drive a car , my director rides a bicycle...go figure. In Holland, it's bicyle country...you think its poverty?

2. If your brother with msc from a rated university abroad could not get a better job than he would have gottwn with msc from ekiti, you will agree something is wrong with either nigeria, your brother or both?

3. The average job in ireland will see you get a decent apartment (could be 1 bedroom flat depending on location) and within less than 4-5 years get mortgage to own yours. That is more than average job in nigeria will give you. If your brother could not get pass getting a job that meant he has to live in a shared apartment in a country where the standard of living and employment rate is much better than Nigeria, you cant again assume its the fault of the country.

ahiboilandgas:
yes ! I can afford it from my Nigeria investment ! ......

I only recall this profile for actively promoting Mba capital investment or some other ponzi? Oga ponzi is not investment, I recall you being one of their chief marketing officers here on nairaland

tensazangetsu20:
Seriously I thought it was 90 percent o. Any article that says this. I would love to read it.

Buhari worked hard and fast to improve it to 123% .

Nigeria is a finished country bro....it will take at least a decade of course correction to set it on track after buhari leaves and that is assuming the next person even acknowledges buhari drove the country into a ditch

Moh247:
PDP would support privatisation when it favors them but call it a crime when it doesn't


Question is did TVC pay the Land use charge and is the place put up for productive usage

You can't shame the shameless. Tell us more about the benefits of tinubu converting "unproductive educational property" to his productive private venture

Kingsnairaland:
None of them wants Putin's hypersonic nukes on their azz lol

They all ran away when putin tested the nuke.

In case you are still watch NTA, the USA just announced the provision of Bradley IFVs, Germany announce Marder IFV + Patriot , France announced AMX ifv yesterday.....winter offensive is about to commence following weeks of precision strikes on C&C centres and logistics hubs of RFU in ukraine...early this week almost 500 RFU soldiers were slaughtered in their sleep by Himars

You must be really ignorant to think Ukraine will be interested in a ceasefire when it can smell RFUs blood

also oil & gas prices are at their lowest in over 12 months (and this is winter period when prices should be high, Ural is trading at $50 per barrel below even the $60 price cap set by the EU)...its really bad for putin and his fan boys

Kingsnairaland:
Ukraine live briefing: Putin orders 36-hour unilateral cease-fire in Ukraine for Orthodox Christmas

Russia isn't going away after the cease fire . It is amassing men and material in preparation for a winter offensive. It is bringing hundreds of thousands of fresh troops into the theater. General Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, knows what is looming. That is why he has urged Ukraine to negotiate, He said, "Ukraine has accomplished all they can militarily. It gets very very cold in Ukraine."

Is it from NTA you've been getting your news? Cannot be a recognised new channel that fed you this

...Tinubu & Atiku left the chat room

BAZOO1 is this your handwriting?
Mejai or yeyegbami shey u dey see wetin I dey see?

Nope bro...I'm been an admirer of the guy's work level.

In the past, a lot drivers were antagonistic to the guy. Good to see that has changed .

If I were a driver, I would not mind evening paying him to know he grosses these amounts every month.....

Still cant wrap my head around how makes so much every month and keeps a level head doing the job. The average person will probably develop a big ego and leave to other job....really admire his work ethic.

@CheerfulGiverr if you can consistently make such amounts in Nigeria in spite of the difficult operating environment, I can only imagine how much you will make in a more structure environment doing same job

CheerfulGiverr:
Update 4

Days 26 - 29 of December 2022

3 days of driving.

Gross total - #197,300. ....

Bro, you're the enigma in this group.

Out of curiousity bro, what kind of car do you use and how often do you service it?

I came across your account over a year ago (and you had been grossing over N1M a month probably even before then.....with N1M a month over several years, most drivers would have exited the business...what keeps you doing this?

No offence...just curious to understand your flow

DenreleDave:
I want to ask this guys. If you are working for someone in an organisation, informal organisation at that.

If the boss decides to sell the company, is it legal, morally or and constitutionally right to inform the staffs of the potential sales?

Should the boss just sell the company and care less about any decision the potential buyer decides to do with the staff who were unprepared for this?

Morally, yes he should.

Legally, if the change in ownership will affect the terms of their existing employment, yes he should e.g if they have to take up a new contract with the new owners (by implication they have to wind down the offer with the current owner. The current owner is obligated to give them a notice except their contract specifically does not require it

matm:
High exchange rate from pound to dollar is the reason for japa.One pound is N543.00.
Now if ur salary in UK is a paltry N3000 a month.
N3000 times N543=N1629000 a month in naira.
If u are sending just IK home monthly, it's equivalent to N543000. which is far greater than the salary of a Court Judge here in Nigeria.
That's why people love japa

Where did you get pounds for N543? Dollar seff you cant get for this amount. If you see anyone willing to sell dollar for this amount, let me know, I will buy it off him and pay you 5% finders commission

Parachoko:
How many person dey earn up to 60k in a year in England?

£60k is a lot of money, don't be fooled

Dont mind the funny guy, people forming expert on nairaland.

May be because they hear footballers earn £300,000 a week, they assume its like that for everybody in the UK

OVB123:
That is thisame question i was about to ask, they don't know that 60k pounds annually is nothing to write home about. Nigerians need to learn that it is not as easy as their think.

£60K is nothing to write home about in the UK? Oga go and sleep. Everyone comes here to form travel expert.

£60k is a very good middle class salary in the UK that affords you all the basic good things - good mortgage, new cars e.t.c

Matinox:
Bro, it is indeed!

Bro...I know it's late now but you should have sorted out accomodation before marriage. This is really waooo .

If you have reasonable family members and inlaws and you open up to them, they will likely have cut down the wedding expense or defer parts of it or spot you some cash to ensure the cart is not before the horse

This is very uncool bro

JapaProfessor:
Before settling for a country, you need to be sure it is a country that will accommodate your skill set, suitable for your personality and equally reliable for your long-term goal.

The fact that your friend was successful in Kazakhstan or South Korea isn't a guarantee that you will replicate the same level of success.

Also go with the right visa...the guy travelled on visitors visa but was looking to hold a decent job...it that ignorance or desperation?

beelon1020:
OP sorry about this ordeal.. this is very condemnable act...
however when Tinubu proposed to recruit 55,000 army, people are mocking him,.. will you now agreed with me that with the heavy presence of military personnel nation wide, the kidnapping issues will be a thing of the past?
Food for thought!

Tinubu will solve the problem that was caused by supporting a failure for 8 years?

Dont eat too much agabdo bro..not good for the health

pek:
I will advise you to watch Judge Judy. This case won't last 5 minutes and the plaintiff will win the case. FYI, the seller had no business selling the product after it was paid for. There was already a contract. A contract only cease to exist by the consent of the two parties.

Bro....I'm not quite sure he will in the absence of a written agreement stating payment must result in supply.

Even abroad, sometimes we order stuff online that is then reported as stocked-out and funds returned. I think this happens when several people make an order for same product online.

I think a case can be made that biosilicon was not honourable in his conduct but gazzuz calling it a scam is definitely a stretch.

I once paid for rent that was returned by the landlord before the move-in date because he claimed he got a better offer. I was deeply offended but I would not call him a scammer...I just felt he lacked honour and was greedy

And for law, I believe execpt Gazzuz can show he suffered certain quantifiable loss as a result of the rescinded offer (e.g having to liquidate an investment early , taking on financial loss to generate the cash), all judge judy will order os a refund of the money.

Sent my wife back to her parents this morning with all the evidence.
I think am free now

Once again am grateful guys for all your support and care throughout this journey it was not easy but we are here.
As for my kids they are all with my ex wife I will continue to send upkeep for them.

Note I called her this morning by 5am to sort things out with her but she was not remorseful at all I was ready to let all go we can only go village and handle traditional cleansing. You know what she is bagging now.

bros take your mind off her and work on improving yourself and finding love elsewhere. If your partner has no remorse after all this, she is not worth it. Keep the relationship with your kids on, someday they will get to understand.

Moh247:
For not interfering in Anambra election, he helped Soludo have an Easy win

PDP Presidents won't allow that

You eat too much agbado...fermented one in particular.

Since when has apga held the governorship position of the state?

lajid:
Nice, it seems you are In the field. My plan is to switch to audit when I’m in.

Also the area of tax is too restrictive ( managed services - entails tax compliance, immigration tax services, payroll services. Dunno if they do transfer pricing)

My intention is to put a little pressure for them to put me in audit. That way I have better exit options.

Or better still go to another big four firm (audit).

I want something that offers better opportunities going forward and it seems audit is best for that.

What do you think

Yeah people do switch from one unit to another in the big4. In Nigeria, I think its down to some politics (securing the suppprt of senior staff in both arms or a strong business case for the move you from one unit to another e.g if you have certain skill needed there.

There's a fair chance transfers may not work out if the politics or business case doesnt click. You may check with current staff as to what your chances are.

However, as audit is now known to be an emigration pathway, I am fairly sure there would be scrutiny of such requests for its sincerity.

lajid:
I know this is not the right section but will appreciate opinions from people with knowledge on the subject matter. Tried other sections and I’m not getting replies

If it's a large investment banking firm, please go for it , otherwise go for the big4.

Investment banking will likely give you better opportunities when compared to tax....also tax is jurisdictional in nature so if you leave the shores the country, it may be a little restricted as tax codes differ across countries. There are a few tax roles with the big4 that are global but the number is limited.

Religious Asylum

One of the many lies being told at the embassy all in the name of Paali...

The US government also wait till the talent in the boy came out before granting the said asylum..
I blame NG govt sha

Us gov just poached the guy. The asylum thing is a ruse because many others with stronger case will not get it
