Career / Re: Japa: From Bank Manager To Skyscraper Cleaner by Akolawole(m): 6:24pm On Dec 16, 2023
santaclaws:


I doubt the authenticity of that story. Most of these stories are fabricated. A former bank manager in Nigeria can easily get a management or accounting job anywhere in the world.

That's not true.

I have seen a PHD holder who found himself in cleaning job abroad

Travel / Re: Traveling To Nigeria With An Expired Nigerian Passport by Akolawole(m): 12:56am On Nov 26, 2023
Hi,

It was pasted all over the immigration unit at Murtala International Airport Lagos. No questions ask! Just present your expired passport to the officers and no bribe taking.

Also, there was one passport office created for Diasporas who come home to process and get their passport within 2 weeks. However, I do NOT know if it's still existing now.

If you are knowledgeable about the capital market, you would know that most people that invested heavily in the market between 2002 and 2008 lost almost everything to the market collapse that happened between 2009 and 2010. His father lost everything even before Buhari became president not to talk of Tinubu.

Very Correct.
Travel / Re: JAPA: 10 Sets Of People Who Shouldn't Travel To The UK by Akolawole(m): 12:47am On Oct 23, 2023
mannobi:
On a serious note, how do you convince someone that working in the UK as a security guard or rug washer with an income more than a civil servant on level 16 is worse? The truth is most people going to the UK only want to earn enough foreign currency that can be converted to our terrible naira before returning home to enjoy their retirement.
Just imagine that you have to exchange $95,000 to naira right now.
No be you go dey complain about bulaba till his 8 years tenure expires.

UK security guard get paid more than a level 16? OK..


How much does the security pay as rent?

How much does he pay for other bills?
Travel / Re: My Flight Has A Stopover At Dublin, Do I Need A Transit Visa? by Akolawole(m): 7:27pm On Jul 21, 2023
Good evening all,

The onus is on every traveller to ensure that they have appropriate visa for their journey.

Turkish airline in conjuction with their home country can waive transit visa within TURKEY only. Same way Egyptian airline wave for their passengers in Cairo.

In this particular case, I think you will need a transit visa.

Transit visa is what it is.

Travel / Re: Zambian Girl Wants Me To Come Over For School by Akolawole(m): 8:13pm On Dec 23, 2022
jeffmatt4u:
I have this Zambia babe I have been chatting with on facebook. We kind of dating, she is very in-love with me bcoz she call almost everyday both on video call and all.
Now she wants me to come over to Zambia promising to help in securing admission at her school (university of Zambia) for me by next year. she is a medical student . And she is damn serious.
So my people, how do you see this?
Is it a good idea moving to Zambia?

Well.....

I have a good knowledge of the country.

# Much more calmer place. Less crime
# Uninterrupted Electricity

But..

# No job opportunities at ALL even if you are married to their citizens.

In fact, with Spouse visa, the company still to apply for work permit for you.

# They don't have Industies etc

Zambia is landlocked(no port) so thing are expensive. They depend on Tanzania and other South Africans for goods.

Their schools are stable but not as high standard as Nigeria One in my opinion.

The thinking of their ladies is very different from Naija or west African ones.

Goodluck but think very well.

Family / Re: Surviving Without Sex As A Single Mum... It's So Difficult by Akolawole(m): 9:10am On Mar 25, 2022
Optimistic4life:
I'm trying hard to live a life free from sin and sexual immorality and I am doing pretty well but of recent, my hormones/body have been raging and I am finding it difficult to cope.

It's 18months I have been separated and there is no getting back together.

Were you ever in my situation, how did you overcome without involving in sex/masturbation?

I just need some words of encouragement.

Its really not easy and it has become some sort of distraction.

The reason I do not want to have a male friend is because of my fear for God.

Though we don't know the full info.
Separation is just to allow both parties calm down and see if there is going to be a reconciliation.

You have done well for 18 months. It's not easy but you could do more until everything is settled.

EraseTheDot:

Stop grandstanding. Can't you read. Why was Jonathan reaching out to Tinubu & Pa Akanda for a candidate in PDP when he could have asked them for a candidate in ACN. They very well saw through his manipulation.

In the meantime, President Goodluck Jonathan was pressing for a government of national unity, with a bid of sucking ACN into manipulative extinction.”

Omicron007:
shocked


Why can't this man put on a suit for once?

Just look at how he looks different and confused in that picture.

All the leaders there have their own native cultures, but our own P-Man would rather dress like his brothers from Niger Republic.





He is at the front seat simply because they want to prevent him from dozing off. That vantage position in front of the lenses would make him a bit alert because that man cannot define climate change.




Only God knows how many world leaders he approached for loans at the sidelines of the conference.




Check the last picture closely. The white man on the left is visibly frustrated. In his minds, he is just pondering: 'who invited this man here?'

Never for once had he EVER slept OFF in any meeting while even younger men were snoring.

Politics / Re: President Buhari Attends UN General Assembly In New York by Akolawole(m): 2:57pm On Sep 18, 2021
festacman:
Pres. Buhari's recent visit to Imo State was a strategic move. It was hurriedly but carefully arranged as a build-up to his appearance at 76th session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA 76). Projects to be commissioned were quickly packaged. Reception/town-hall session was thrown in. He followed up the visit with a 'sweetheart' appreciation message to Imo State people and Igbos in general.

The goal of the visit to Imo State was to neutralize negative impressions created by IPOB about Pres. Buhari in international circles as well as preempt any further 'attacks' that will come before and during the high-profile UN event. With the visit, Pres Buhari will attend and address the UNGA 76 as the President of UNITED Nigeria.

Funny thing about the visit is that while IPOB and ESN were busy enforcing sit-at-home order, attacking fellow Igbo people and destroying their businesses, Pres. Buhari came all way from Abuja, achieved his goal and travelled back to Abuja. Interesting thing is that it was even IPOB social media handles that publicized his visit to the world as they focused on Buhari's trousers and beat their chests about empty streets.

IPOB or ESN does not HAVE a single effect on Buhari abroad.

Oduduwa protesters will be there, it has no single effect.

They have been going to all places protesting, whats the effect of that? No single effect of that
