I told people then on this forum that I am not a fan of Osho Baba neither do I have anything to do with their wahala politics but I strongly believe that Osho knows something about Obaseki that we all don't know hence the reason behind it all. Well Edo people and our almighty PDP are being served in hot hot pattern.

Good morning my people. For dependent visa, to meet the financial requirement is £680 x 9 months=£6,120.

As at yesterday, Oanda pounds rate to Naira was N559. So I calculated £6,120 x 559= N3,4123,173. So, if a dependent spouse has say, N3.5M, it’s good to go?
Thanks in advance
Why not make it 3.7 due to forex up and down that you can't determine

I stay in portharcourt ,it has not eased the traffic gridlock because all concentration is on major roads only. If he can also do link roads, it will easy the traffic gridlock. Even with the construction of rumuokoro flyover,if u see the holdup in the evenings ,u will be perplexed that the bridge wasnt able to solve the traffic problem. I commend him but let him also work on the link roads to solve the issue of gridlock on the major roads
Exactly one of the points that I earlier raised. All the flyovers are not resolving the traffic gridlock that we used to have, this is as a result of poor designs of sections linking internal roads, internal link roads leading to the flyovers, roundabout, traffic lights and the overhead itself.
This is 21st century,it's not only about doing roads,designs, quality and all effect is needed.

What happened to the health centers, model schools? How did he kill the sectors? Maybe you should enlighten us.
The government can create enabling environment for businesses. I never knew the road construction in port Harcourt is done by robots.
He stopped funding the health centers built across the 23 LGA, he also stopped funding to improve on the model schools, he sacked 10000 teachers employed by the last government (told the teachers to go back to their states if origin,yet till now no one person has been employed), cancelled contracts to cut grasses, pay security staffs of all model schools, cancelled contracts of installation, teaching and repairs of all ICT facilities in model schools, he stopped funding to Shongai farms, a farm that was employing about 500 youths with an existing market to export banana to europe. See I can go on and on with Wike government.
On business environment being enabling,Wike is zero.

Is it the responsibility of one governor to build all.that you have mentioned? Government is a continuous process. Let him do his part..lol The next Governor can focus on other areas
You are missing the point. The arguement is not if one governor alone should do all, the arguement is quality of project and being a little bit an all rounder governor.
What has happened to the good projects that he met on ground e.g health centers, model schools, internal roads , employment agriculture. He has killed all these sectors forgetting that this is where governance meet the ordinary man not only road constructions.

You said there are no potholes and this is wrong. The slaughter oginigba road is filled with numerous potholes. The others also have potholes here and there.

Go back and check
Oginigba, elekahia, rumuomasi,okporo are well over 14 years project but they are still standing o. You can't compare the quality of Amaechi road to Wike. Wike road projects are poorly designed and built they won't last 5 years. He is over hyped while I agree that he is building few roads, my concern is quality and all rounder impact to development not one sided.
While Amaechi had his own fault like all of us, he was more of an all rounder from education to health to agriculture and human development compare to Wike
Old gra and co are mere facelift/resurfacing. Noting spectacular on Wike projects especially the flyovers, he has killed education,health and related sector of the state.
Do we have employment, are pensioners not crying, is minimum wage paid, where are the health centers where are the model schools?

Am free to, but court session in weeks time! And undertaken and bond exist not to attack or vawulence grin on social media.
This is one reason alot of young men out there refused or afraid to go into marriage, the same woman that was nice homely caring supporting understanding forgiving respectful will suddenly kill the vibes and the next episode you hear is divorce. The fear of divorce and the associated drama that comes with it is another turn off. I do agree that alot of men do "mess up" but honestly I just believe that communication understanding listening to each other forgiving one another can atleast heal the wound even though it might erase the scare. But what we have today is a case of do me I do you. Husband commit,wife too commit as retaliation.

Agboriotejoye:
No one does not support infrastructure. But if you know APC well, this latest tactics of shouting infrastructure is an attempt to paper over the cracks of the adminstration and it's glaring failures in more critical aspects of the national Life.
Femi is trying to paint that infrastructure is the most important duty of govt and even claimed IBB institutionalised corruption forgetting that IBB performed far better than Buhari will ever do in his 10 years in office.
If IBB who did so well in infrastructure institutionalised corruption, then it means infrastructure development can be a conduit to corruption too.
You can't have it both ways.
I understand we both support infrastructural growth however I agree with you that infrastructural development can also be a conduit to corruption as we have seen in alot of cases especially in Africa and the world in general.
I understand the APC government and I am not a fan of any political party. This government especially has sent us 10-15 years back in more than 70% of their actions and policies

The truth is Nigeria is a complex mix
..yorubas won't get obi because they are naturally social capitalist like the Norway , Denmark and their brothers

Obi is talking from a capitalist point of view like Germans , Japanese

Infrastructure are good , but are only feel good projects

Lagos ibadan rail can't break even in 100 years ..I'm not saying make profit ...yet u spent $1.5b ok it ...that's 750 billion ...what does that add to our GDP every year nothing

Imagine u take same 750 billion ...call the 10 biggest glass importers ...what would it take to move to manufacturing here ....how much do u want ....work with banks the form partnership establishing 3 glass factory ...that would cost not more than $600m ...u give them $400 million ask them to fund the other $200 million as loan without interest and payment break of 5 years from when they start operations ... payment in the next 10 years

Each factory would employ over 3000 people direct that's 9000 direct over 15000 I direct job

Nigeria glass import is around $1.5 billion a year ...with another $2 billion in west Africa and central African market ,

This would grow our GDP by 3.5 billion dollars minimum , generate a tax of over 50 million dollars per year

Now u still have $1.1 billion

U can do the same for ceramics plates and bathroom equipments ...that's would be less 200 million dollars as loan to the importers can set up 5 factories

U are left with $800 million

Garment factories in aba can cloth Nigeria with $400 million invest ...link the leather producers in kano the shoe markers in aba

Make it easy to transport with police harassment

We can commercialize the rice species we have developed ...$100 million to rice importers can do the magic

$1.5 billion if invested well can generate 5 to 10 billion GDP growth per year
aside this well thought out analysis,our government need to remove the unnecessary bottleneck in our beaucracy in our process. It kill growth either in private or public office

It’s sad that this has happened.
Perhaps he should put her on a monthly allowance and henceforth pay into her bank account then try again in 6months?.
Was financial status the only reason given?.
The refusal letter/mail should have contact details on there but like you say no grounds for appeal or administrative review so a letter might not do much.
@tutu, thanks for the advise.
I read on another thread that the monthly upkeep is 3 months and not 6 before we can reapply for her.
Please confirm?
Secondly,he has began paying monthly upkeep into her account, can she make withdrawals or we just leave that amount there and pay in every month.

PoliticsRe: PDP Delegates From 21 LGAs Storm Maduka's Hometown To Show Solidarity by awumen: 7:22am On Jun 30, 2021
I totally agree with you, Maduka advisers should bury their head in shame.
A visit to OBJ, secondus, tambuwal including Wike, definitely was going to be a plus.
The team messed up in that regard
Thinktwicemybro:
MISTAKES MADUKA MADE; MY OPINION

1. Did he visit obasanjo all through his campaign?
2. Did he visit wike in porthacourt?
3. Did he visit tambuwal in sokoto?
4. Did he visit goodlucks Jonathan?
5. Did he visit PDP governor forum to lobby?
6. Did he visit secondus to negotiate?

Maduka spent time visiting atiku, a political prostitute who has no stake in PDP. Maduka went round the 21 local government but he failed to realize that PDP is a party of lobby and primaries are different from election campaign.
Maduka advisers should resign and burry their head in shame.

These vultures still want to continue to feast on him. My advice is that he should go to another party like labour party to contest or stand as an independent candidate. He will give them a run for their money. That way we will also know if these fake love around him will turn to vote for him.
