Hello.
Does one need a background in Engineering or Mathematics to learn Software development (Java, etc), please?

Also what age would you say it's too old to learn/make money with the knowledge?

Thank you.

Lalami3232:
Software development na blood money oooo. I paid 300K to learn just Java at NIIT back then. I would advise youths to go into it because it's the only business you can start up without need a capital in 9ja. It's the only good job you can get in 9ja without needing a BSC. Though I've left Java sha, but the experience I got from Java gave me advantage to learn JavaScript (React and Node), Python (Django) etc.
Instead of you to go do ashawo or yahoo, go learn programming and thank me later. If you no fit get access to materials, I go help to give you some. It's my little way of taking menance from the street

I don talk am before and I go talk am again "the day I go mistakenly born girl pikin eeh, I go ******"

So True. Beyond sad.

Ykc2:
oga nothing is working in nigeria take it or leave , some nigeria here in vienna who never imagined that they will near helicopter one day not talk of touching it some of us here during emergency helicopter was used used to lift,last week lamboghini was used to transport kidney by Italian police to hospital,you don touch lamboghini before?if you never commot nigeria visit advanced country you no go believe something dey exist

People really talk authoritatively on issues they know little or nothing about, please. Especially when their horizon is limited to Nigeria. Thank you.

KingOfAmebo:
"I actually stopped reading when he said "They also didn't have any emergency services and no stretcher or ambulance". Are you kidneying me?

Abeg name one hotel in the world that has an ambulance, even Burj Al Arab - the World's only 7 Star Hotel in Dubai don't have an ambulance. It's either you are confusing Radisson Blue Hotel for Radisson Blue Hospital or you just want to cashout?

A 5 year old kid can lie better than this nigger.

Then he said: They were trying to sneak me out through the back stairway on the back of a porter to avoid a scene..Now this is absolutely laughable, where you expecting them to take you through the guest lobby so that everyone can have a good view of your injured leg? This is a hotel nigger and not a school or factory". - Village People spokesperson.

Unfortunately, I think you are right.
Below are excerpts from a post of hers in February:

"I can't spend another night with this monster."
"The sound of my cry begging him not to kill me still echoes in my head."

"I can't sleep. I'm sweating and shivering. My head and eyes aches. No one to talk to

Nothing in me prays for this man. I am struggling not to curse him.

Babaken:
My dear don't mind her she came here to paint the man black and red are they not dating before the man propose didn't she see all these before she accept they tie her join the man neck she should tell us a bit of herself you forget to tell us one thing the man is too rich to let go yayayaya.

I absolutely agreed with everything you said, until you got to the last bit..."she will be the one at the losing end".
Losing end of what, though? I mean what is the opportunity cost here? What is the irrestitable prize? A useless, dishonest man who makes you feel less than zero? High blood pressure/stroke? All kinds of veneral diseases/potential death? Not ever being happy in your own home for the rest of your life? Just so you can be Mrs. Something? Smh. Nah. The prize doesn't justify the life.

When she dies or develops a stroke and becomes a vegetable from a veneral disease or high blood pressure, some1 else will "take her place" anyway.

So like you had said, let her get a job/business first. And she can take it from there.

yanabasee2:
I'm really convinced that she did not check on his background before accepting to marry him....

It's a terrible situation for a man to disrespect his wife and get another woman pregnant.. and still keeps her for sex....


Let her get herself a job or a business first... She should allow the husband to set her up before deciding to divorce.... So she'll have money to take care of those kids... And she should know that, if she leaves the man, the other baby mama will step in and take her place... So she will be at the losing end...

And best of all, you are female!!
I like that. I like that very much.

I will def be in touch.
Thank you.

True. What online jobs do you do, though, that you are getting financial freedom from? Would you mind sharing?
Thank you.

@OP untill you own your house and have a comfortable home without managing to live in a one bedroom flat you should be less relaxed about your location.
If you can or know how try get involved in earning residually.
That's why I can't do physical jobs full time...howbeit online jobs are the best bet for financial sustainability and freedom to having time to plan a better future especially when you are getting paid in hard foreign currencies with better value than Naira.

So many years later, and it still works.

Lost faith in Jesus?
But you have faith in men/women (seeing you are asking for help/assistance here)?
A very sad existence, if you asked me.

I would love to assist you, but it's hard for me to assist you when you shun the Lord who was and has been my backbone since when I was widowed for over 15 (VERY tough) years.

Mizflo:
Thanks for the advice. I have lost faith in Jesus because if he was there I wouldn’t have been suffering like this . I don’t want to look for him because he has never care about me and I don’t want to know him

Take a closer look, dear. Think outside the box. Now, look at the thread like an entrepreneur -
and these are the facts that will strike you:
You dont need to waste time (and some stupidly-priced software) to do market research as to if these would be well-received in the market or not. You read that there were loads of expatriates there. You can see (hear) all the ooohs and aaahs at the beauty of the items.
2. You know where to get the items (I bet if you looked further, you will even see cheaper places in Balogun). But that will come later.
3. You have a good idea of the costs.
What are you all waiting for?!
You could banish that your poverty.
Look for money, not even up to #10'000.00
Buy only 2. Add the cost of your transport, then for profit, add only #500.00

-Aggressively advertise on your Facebook account in the time you spend following and liking and watching vid clips on Fbook. Advertise on Olx and Jumai/Daily deal (or whatever it is called/Konga/Nairaland etc.
-Carry to those high networth offices - banks, oil companies & multinationals in Ikoyi, Lekki, V.I. I"ll give you another tip free of charge: those people are very very well paid but they are also very very well-used. So they have money, but dont have time to relax and visit such markets.
A lot of them also have friends outside the country who would love these items as gifts.

Reinvest your profit till you are a bit comfortable. As a matter of fact, at this stage, you will find friends who will be happy to invest once they see your Account Book (please have an account book from day 0 of the/any business).

What is the worst that could happen if you bought 2? You will definitely sell one. If the business doesnt work? Importantly, you will know you did your best. Saw a crack and gave it a shot.

#This is an opportunity I myself would have jumped at and partnered with someone at home. They will sell like c-r-a-z-y here. Unfortunately I've been burnt too many times by my people.

**Interview between you and a journalist:
Question: Have you always been interested in selling artefacts, sir/ma?

You: no, not at all.

Question: So how did it happen?

You: It was a chance occurrence. Pure luck. I was just browsing through Nairaland one day when I happened to see a thread by travelwaka. And I started the business in bits (of course, you woulda forgotten ME who gave this advice by then). After some time, I started diversifying gradually.

Question: Really?!

You: Yes. And the rest, as they say, is history.

Question: And you have become a multimillionaire 3 times over! W-h-oa!

You: God is great.

Question: what will be your advise to people who want to be entrepreneurs or very poor at the moment?

You: I will say to them, do not despise the day of little beginnings and think after the box. Also, very important pray always.

Journalist: Thank you sir/ma.

You: Thank you too.

One day, the above conversation could be you or anyone, man or woman, reading this today.

Go on, seize the day!

Chaiii this thread is not for me.. God punish poverty

You won't drop out in the mighty Name of Jesus.
Please make contact with me. I'm struggling too, but God is a miracle working God and He will make a way.

Do get in touch. It will be well.

Thank you.

Lekan239:
I already have my OND in mechanical engineering, and I'm currently in HND1 but there's no clue on how I could get enough money to pay the remaining bills before exam. Sometimes I still thank God for bringing this corona virus at the right time, if not for the virus exam would have began and I would officially have been a dropout again. Either way I'm always looking forward to what life throws at me. And I'm already planning of the way forward if I eventually dropout. But all I know is that either now or later I will surely complete my education

Thank you very much dear.
We are all running scared as we follow the daily count of deaths. Very scary. But God is in absolute control.

I pray your family are all well.

I appreciate your checking up on me.

God bless you.

Condition for student Visa : undergraduate:
that you have been accepted at educational institution. The education is approved by the authorities
language requirements. You must understand and speak the launguage the education is taught in and also ability to speak either Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, German or English at a decent level.
You must be able to provide for yourself during the stay. Document that you have an amount of 7000 euro if u wish to study a year. For a shorter period you must document u have 600 euro for each month you'll be staying.

I have looked at the rules for different permits, and this is arguably the most realistic way to go about it

Thank you very much.

More importantly, everybody in Ireland who has an income, pay their taxes. They dont bribe tax officers to reduce their taxes. How much tax are these grumblers paying - willingly?

My own grouse is the House of Rep people shamelessly buying latest Camry at this time.

Ramsak1:
all of una wey jezz dy shout ireland €350 upandan. do you know that the whole of ireland is no more than 3 LGA's in Lagos state.
Ireland's total population is less than 4.9mill while Lagosians are more that 22mill.

Now, it is working.

And those countries you mentioned plus USA refused to lockdown in time, fearing the effect on the country's economy. They thought it was child's play. Now they know better - they all learnt the hard way.

God keep us all.

Swingate:
This lock down won't help much it failed in Italy and the UK, the best thing is for government to set up a place in Ondo state or Ogun to move all suspected cases nation wide to till they are tested.
Then the positive ones will be kept and treated while the negative ones will be released.

Not True. Not at all True. Fathers are NOT compelled to watch any labour/delivery in Uk.

madridsta007:
Not really. The birth happened in the UK where the father is literally compelled to be there and WATCH the delivery process.

Seems she doesn't know this

OMGoodness!! ���� Y-o-u are awesome.
And one of the most maddening things is because you are intelligent, smart or what they call "strong", they you are "obirin bi okunrin" i.e a woman like a man. Hell no! I am not a woman like a man. "Strongness", smartness etc isnt the franchise of any gender. I am a w-o-m-a-n and despite all the challenges, I am very happy and very proud to be one. Wouldn't swap it for 10 million pounds.

NiCurious:
Beyond just plain ENJOYING playing football with the guys?

[assuming that tomboys = girls who like to dress boyishly and play "boy" games with the boys]

Another reason you might find a girl acting tomboyish, is when she perceives that only males are respected and compensated for their contributions. She knows how people tend to be blinded by stereotypes, and prescribe for other people how they "should" behave, irrespective of their talents and preferences. If by birth she is "supposed to" sit on the sidelines, wear pink dresses and play with dolls, and follow after boys--in spite of the fact that she has much of value to contribute and which would be valued if she were male--she might reject a feminine appearance to make others take notice of herself for herself, to be heard, and fully express herself and her gifts, and be herself.

A tomboy can be a strong individual reacting to social norms that are too narrow and short-sighted. She is finding another way to be herself, when the first path is closed to her.

Teehaha I like you. You seem to be one of those who know iya Osho more than Osho. You have convinced yourself than you know my thoughts more than I do. You imply that I implied so and so. No, that was not what I implied.
But first, this is the definition of "imply" with example: Impu indicate the truth or existence of (something) by suggestion rather than explicit reference.
"salesmen who use jargon to imply superior knowledge"
See, it does not mean it is true that the salesmen have superior knowledge even if they "implied" same.

Secondly, with permission of 3 of the 5 individuals concerned, I will tell you what I meant by using "mostly". I did not want to be explicit initially because the 5 individuals had confided in me.

3 gays and 2 lesbians. 2 are friends of mine, 2 are colleagues and 1 of them was my student. Each and everyone of them is still undergoing therapy and being used in on-going experments to see if it is possible for them to alter their sexuality. Each one of them claims that he/she "became gays and lesbians" because they were sexually abused multiple times by people of their gender when they were in foster homes.

Sadly, in those days, enough due diligence weren't carried out before babies and toddlers were placed with foster parents. (Sadly, I personally, still believe that enough due diligence isnt being done, but that is story for another day.)

So, once again, quit putting words in my mouth that I did not say. Also quit attempting to get into my head, you can not. And finally, tomboyishness and LGBTs should Not be discussed in the same breath. They are not the same at all. At all.

Kayceenaz:
By using "mostly," you imply there are other factors besides "being born that way" which could trigger a transgender switch. That is where tomness and external influences such as sexual abuse, peer orientation, emotional heartbreak, misogyny/misandry, and so on, come in. Although not every tomboy/tomgirl turns a transgender (a point I have reiterated and you've misunderstood, too), my contention is the probability is high due to the growing comfort associated with assuming behaviours of the opposite gender. Such could (not must) lead to the transgender decision, especially when the resources to effect it are reachable.

Clearly, my position gives room for tomboy/tomgirls to significantly quit the personality as time passes, and advises the "shedding off" can be made earlier for harmony with the self. The fact tomness can be outgrown suggests it doesn't constitute the person's essence, making it extrinsic rather than intrinsic.

.

No. Please don't put words in my mouth. The ONLY reason I use "mostly" is because
1. I am not a scientist.
2. I am not transgender and unlike most people I don't presume "to know Ọṣọ's (colloquially, Osho) mother more than Ọṣọ himself".
3. I can tell you one thing for free, though, and authoritatively, Tomboyishness isn't caused by "sexual abuse, peer orientation, emotional heartbreak, misogyny/misandry".

Thank you.

Hahahahaha
Goodness gracious!!

Xclusiveme:
This is a very lnteresting topic. Let me help by clarifying things here.
When a child is been born, a gender is assigned to him/her due to the physical characteristics. Being a man or a woman isn't about your physical structure. It's how you think and behave. Tomboy/girl is just an incomplete transformation to being who they want to be. They don't have the will power or strong mind to tell the world that they don't literally fit in their bodies cos of the society. They are not coached enough about genderism. So as they are growing up, they are stuck with who they are from birth and not who they want to be. That's why you see tomboy and Tom girl everywhere. But sometimes due to a long term in their lives, their body and mind adjust. Either caused by the hormones or gender transparency. So tomboy is an efficacy to trans boy. Meaning incomplete transformation. With surgery and hormonal implants it's a full transformation

What she said is true. Even the last paragraph corroborates your initial assertion.
What we are saying, essentially, is that Tomboy and its vice versa have no place in this write up - at all.

Lesbians and Gays are mostly born that way not because of the people around them; And Tomboy isnt a catalyst to becoming gay at all. At all.

Mostly, Tomboys start shedding their boyishness when they start "noticing" boys. We evolve into girlfriends, wives and mothers (and grandmothers!). It's also scientifically proven that we keep one or two of our childhood boyish interests. I believe that. As even now in my (very) late 50s, I still love (car) speeding and soccer (my blood is Blue!)

Yours is a common misconception - grouping tomboys with all types of trans. But it NOT the same thing at all.

Thank you.

Kayceenaz:
If you re-read the concluding paragraph, you would discover I never asserted there is a necessary link between tomboys/tomgirls and transgenders. My point was such behavioural tendencies tend to lead to a decision to drastically alter one's gender. The high possibility of some transgenders today once being tomboys/tomgirls underscores the need to reconsider appropriateness of leaning towards such a personality. If you don't wanna get burnt, avoid moving close to the fire.

Also, I beg to differ on "tomness" being solely physical and not psychological. Exihibition of behaviours opposed to one's gender is the product of a belief system, a mental evaluation favourable to ways of life of an opposite sex. That goes on to pattern one's physical actions after it. In psychology, the term "Psychosomatic relationship'' sheds light on this truism.

Eiyah.....sorry.
I wish I had seen this earlier. Agric dogs arent easy to maintain. Sorry again.

Thank you.

Amen. May the good Lord bless you and provide for you.

Hello Everyone,

Like I said, I would post updates on my Visa Application Process on this forum so that prospective applicants can learn from it.

On the 4th of April, 2017, I went to the Embassy in Abuja with ALL my documents ready for submission and application as suggested my most seniors on this tread. Only for me to get there and for the Man who attended to me to tell me that I could only submit my University Certificates/Transcripts on that day and would be called once the verification of the credentials is complete (at the NUC). I appreciate all your comments. But for the purpose of those who would be applying this year, please note that the verification for certificates at NUC is still the first process to visa application. And for this stage of the application, I THINK SOMEONE CAN ACTUALLY DO THIS PART ON YOUR BEHALF. This is my personal opinion, as I was just given a form to fill for this process. The form contains the information of the Document Owner and the information of the person who is submitting these documents on his/her behalf. You can try it if Abuja is thousands of miles away.

The person who collected my certificate actually said the verification process at NUC should take between 3 Weeks to 1 Month. It would be a month by next tomorrow, I am yet to hear from them. I called the embassy, and the response I got was that my documents have not returned from the NUC.

Please house, does anyone know how to speed things up from NUC's end?

The next process, once they get my documents verified at NUC is the application proper which involves the submission/presentation of the documents mentioned up-thread. Many thanks.
