To Whom It May Concern( to be centralised)


Then the write up.


Pls reply

Yep its ok....should be on ur office letter headed paper......cos it's assumed ur office is writing on ur behalf....

sihom: Tpia is forever sounding as sour as she looks, someone help me understand what her problem is. I know she looks sour because I once viewed her profile picture and it made me go and then . My first reaction was hell no how can anyone look that …… but then my second reaction was stop hating she's God's creation as well. She boldly owned up to being the person in the picture when another NL member asked.

Tpia in no way did the OP insult a pastor or pastors neither did she generalize the issue, she only asked where in scripture are we told to call our pastors daddy or mummy. Why you often take off ranting and spewing trash on peoples' thread remains a mystery to me. Most people who are physically challenged in the looks department try to make up for their lack of good looks in good character BUT you on the other hand suffer a deficiency in both looks & character which is so sad and OFF PUTTING.

Tpia I am done talking so you in your usual fashion can come and rant all you want, after all I expect nothing less of you so don't disappoint all of NL on this occasion.

What more can I say......God bless u real gud bro........!

PalmTree: Not really, though we offer classes on programming. GIS is very wide as it is, so the programing lessons are channeled towards enabling a web powered GIS. Thanks

can u pls educate us a little on what programming apps u use for web mapping?

agehero13: those days we call it "wording" not yabbing

Dem born u well.....beta gbooza 4 you.....!

@..op....do u train on programming...python 4 scripting....to be precise.....?

lol.....a lil comic relief on d thread eh.......

so..... from my latest correspondence with my case officer........really dunno know how they do it........but these guys verify every single damn thing........bottom line they've been doing sum background checks on me....and they contacted linkedin 2 verify my profile,work experience,bla bla bla.......(mind u my linkedin profile was a private profile not public).......they screen printed d page & attached it 2 d mail sent 2 me...........they wanted explanations about some components of my job description which i purposely left out in my app form........

secondly they were like i didn't notify them about the change in career/job which i was supposed 2 have done ASAP.... even when am still on probation in my new place of work......

thirdly they called my bank 2 verify if d cash is sitting in my acc..........unfortunately i had only 20k in dat acc.......so they wanted clear explanations as per my source of funds.......


bottom line.....these cats verify every single damn thing.....from ur facebook profile 2 linkedin profile or jobsearch boards, social media, and work experience........so be careful with what u place online about urself.

eminem is just an overhyped rapper............he's rap style is too one sided 4 me.........if he's that good how come u never heard him rhyme 2 a dup_step beat with constantly changing instrumentals in any of his albums..... like chubb rock, Afu-Ra, and Heavy D does........simple he's just 2 one sided.....and u tag him a rap g.o.a.t...............oh pls............do u think if Deathrow records had signed vannila ice as Dr.Dre wanted them 2 do.... we would have known eminem.......vannilla ice would av definately taken d shine cos as at then he was probably d most notable white rapper around then...........and it was all about biznas for Dr. Dre............eminem on d other side probably would have been around same time with d likes of drake & co..bottom line...HE AIN'T G.O.A.T...............i can go on and name a thousand and one rappers who are way better than eminem..........!

i laugh when u guys hype eminem like he's all n all.........don't get me wrong.........the dude is good though..... but will not make my top 20 greatest all time Mc's/rappers...........this ain't about been biased or racism.............hiphop music is way deeper than album sale's...........it's an art that is composed of beat, rhymes, poetry, and culture..........real hiphop heads know the truth about dis.........there are a couple of rappers who are way d'oper than eminem...........i must let u guys know that eminem wouldn't have been able 2 stand d competition of 90's hiphop should he had stepped out back then..........bootom line...........he ain't the G.O.A.T.

HD glasses gives us d comfort of viewing d eclipse from our sitting room.......of course u guys in planet earth know we miles ahead of y'all tech wise...........big ups 2 d Martians an Gobblings in d house.....pinging from my nokix5150....!

Tranquill: Brov you started something nice but then dont make us feel that it is only the information that comes through you is correct. There was update and someone posted it here, you are dismissing it without even taking 2 mins to check out CIC site yourself. Replying someones comment means you have access to internet why not comfirm it urself?

Lol.......me likey.

solomonwis: I have never doubted the fact that banks in Nigeria can raise a bank draft made payable in Canada(which have to be routed through a foreign/international bank) but I know the process can be time consuming and even cost more.

The up side of this is however, you never get to expose your credit card/debit card details.

Yep u get 2 pay more....but u can get it done in in less than 7 days.....!

solomonwis: Was the bank draft made payable in Nigeria? This is new and strange.@thebaft, can you clarify this please?

Gtb close 2 1004 handles such transactions comfortably.....all u need is 2 buy d dollar draft ( bank charges included)and they will facilitate d transaction via a 3rd party bank in canada......(City bank).

I love d two songs he did with his late homeboy stretch......

1) 'pain'(Above the rim soundtrack) and
2) 'House of pain' feat biggie and stretch..........dooooope aaaazs joints

If stretch had not died @ a much younger age.....he would av been a real competition for 'pac lyricly, poetically.......!

........Me against d world and R u still down remains my fav 2pac albums cos both of em were recorded about d same tyme n both albums are kinda similar production/content wise.... .

In addition 2 d pointz listed above....

1) Wives if there's something bothering u on d inside.....do not cum nagging about it while we 're watching futball......I repeat.....WHILE WE 'RE WATCHING FUTBALL....!


2) Don't go suspecting us unnecessarily.....we hustle hard 2 keep d fam goin' n dat means getting home late @ tymez.......!


3) We would appreciate u guys handling minor stuff like refilling d gas cylinder when it gets empty.......not calling us 2 leave our office @ 10am cos of empty gas cylinder.......!


Will keep d list updated.......Peace

deadie: It is really sad that you people are here condemning her because she said she will burn her Nigerian passport. Could you imagine the frustration she is going through? All you mumus that have never stepped out of Nigeria - do you know how much she worked to earn the 300 dollars? Abroad is not like Nigeria where people don't work (part-time or full-time ghost workers) and earn money, or at worst steal from our commonwealth. Moreso, she mentioned being a student and that her dad earns less than 300 dollars a month. She probably has to send money back home to take care of her relatives. She damned has every right to be pissed - and to burn the goddamned passport. When I left the shores of Naija, my intension was to return immediately after concluding my studies. But all that changed the moment I landed at the airport after 3 yrs.

Things has gotten so bad that Nigerians no longer have sympathy with those that are poorly treated by those who are supposed to work for our interest. Channel your outrage to the f00ls who work at the embassy, not at the lady who suffered in their hands. By the way, have a look at the FAQ page (http://www.nigeriaembassygermany.org/faq.htm) of the Nigerian embassy in Germany. The last line reads:

"I am visiting Nigeria for holidays, do I need to take insurance cover?
It is advisable to take insurance cover as Nigeria does not have reciprocal agreement for insurance with the UK."

The f00ls simply copied the line from the Nigerian High commission in london (http://www.nigeriahc.org.uk/faq) and could not change UK to Germany. This is a site that is read by thousands of Germans wishing to travel to Nigeria. And may I add how scanty the FAQ page of the Nigerian Embassy in Germany is? I hope you guys who are condemning her experience this kind of frustration from your useless government.

Exactly my thoughts....most people working in nigerian high commission got dia jobs based on connections....so what do u expect.....when standards & credibility is shelved 2 d gutter this is d result.......its a big shame both on d part of d ambassador & Nigerian Govt as a whole.......I tell u most of dem working in d high commissions outside are grossly incompetent & lack professionalism,......imagine d head of d supposed ict dept in d german high commission not reading thru d copy n paste...... without even taking d pain 2 properly edit d page........ *big shame*.....yet they keep raising dia shoulders proudly saying 2 anyone who cares 2 listen * I am d director of dis n dat......*.........a lotta old men need 2 be pruned 4 nigeria 2 make a headway else nigeria will be nuttin but history pretty soon...... Cos God is already tired of nigeria.

baslone: Papoose is back to the topic with a punchline!!!

"You'll never be a real West Coast artist like Eazy-E/You a f*cking joke, we laughing at you like hee-hee-hee."

"Kendrick, Kanye, and Drake they act feminine/Wear a lotta clothes you usually see women in."

"Good kid, bad city, you know nothing about the trap/On your album cover you sat on another man's lap."

So they were all kinda waiting 4 someone 2 push and jumpstart dem from their slumber.......no matter how sick their reply's might be.....kendrick still gets d props 4 waking dem all up.........enough of these reply's.....they should go back 2 d lab....cook sum damn bomb aaaaaaarse beats....and make sum real d'ope aaaaaaaarse joints......time 2 take hiphop music back 2 its real essence..............PEACE Y'ALL..........!
