A lawyer handling Labour ministry is because labour involves more of arbitration and ensuring the rights of the labour force ....who do you suggest should be minister of labour? A farmer or a labourer? Some one knowledgeable in labour rights and administration works there but that person should also be versed in law. I agree the current minister may have been too overzealous in handling the post but he is still a good fit. BTW - Ngige is a medical doctor though  GardenOfGod: What is this one saying... Things must be done rightly in this country. Appointing a lawyer to be the Head of Labour is what makes ASUU continue on strike. Incompetence! |

Exactly. At some point they should make it a requirement for medical doctors looking to transition to managerial positions to go for an MBA in medical administration but our universities are not sharp to think of this. Imagine UI or any other top universities offering this course. Moh247: Medical doctor with a managerial coarse and certification is very ok.. infact the best |

I agree with you but notwithstanding, a doctor over seeing a hospital would do a better job than say any other manager without medical experience. Universities abroad now offer courses that facilitate this sort of transition. Moh247:

Doctors should not be CMD of an hospital, it's a managerial role... Babangida started this absolute nonsense
Almost all best hospitals in the world have Managers and executive with management skills not Medical skills
hospital administrators, patient care managers, and practice are all qualified professionals

Sad but the absence of something led her into the current situation ...that something is home love. That also led you to disown her instead of standing by her. Same lack of love is making you give conditions to take care of your own blood ....she has only you. The guy can disappear abandoning them and it comes back to you. Show more love dear  Survivor2020: My 17 years old brought shame to me last year she got pregnant, I have disowned her and sent her packing. She is staying with her boyfriend in his family home.
She gave birth 5 months ago she has been sick ever since she had the baby and the boyfriend doesn't have any money to take care of her. Plus the living condition is not suitable for her in her condition.
I have forgiven her and I want to take her back home so I can take her to the hospital for treatment but I don't want her to come with her baby. Please note there is only me and my 7 years old son at home. I work and my son goes to school till 5pm.
I don't have time to babysit the baby. I want the father to take care of his child while I take care of mine. I hope my decision is not bad? |

False information. You can apply to renew once it gets to between 6-3 months remaining validity. How can you advise someone to lie to the police that passport is missing just to get it renewed? Haba ...change thy ways  myhero: I can not renew your passport as long as it's not yet expired even if it's remaining one day to expire.if u really need a new passport, common sense is to go to any police station and get a report certificate on missing international passport (about 10k),with the police report, u go straight to court and swear affidavit. With the police stuff and ya affidavit, u go to immigration and apply for lost passport.. I will advice u to go to immigration headquarters at Abuja. Within 2 weeks, u will get new passport |

It is saddening really. Some students had agents recommending courses for them and contract out SOP for submission. You now have contractors handling school assignments for these students. No joy with these guys at all. darknessbegone: This is the problem I have with a lot of students going to study in the UK. For example, I know for a fact in my class, more than 70% of them can’t get a job with the degree because they have no idea of what they are studying. It infuriates me a lot.
And when I ask them why this course, didn’t you check it out before applying, are you telling me you didn’t go through the course modules explained in details on the university website before applying? They take it really really personal.
Imagine a class where almost 50% are having one resit or the other in just a semester, and then some resitting three to four modules in one semester.
It really touches my soul because I have no idea what they will do after the course after spending so much money to get degree that they can’t use. |

Hmmmmm I can imagine your experience. I think they got more than they could chew this year. Many are still awaiting their study visas just as many are yet to get their CAS issued. I pray it turns out better next year Chreze: Graduate visa. All the story of providing your Unique application number (UAN) in replacement for share code is trash. Very few people understand what that is. Most company want share code for proof.
If the visa department /Home office is really out to make life easier, they would provide a form of proof “ something to show to employer that you have the right to work”. Just like share code. I went bloody on my mail to the MP, if she had issues with Home office before, I gave her enough proof to kill them. I gave her dates of all my mails to different department, their replies and the ones they ignored.
I am just getting over everything. One day I will tell all the story. Even the yeye customer support center that one of the lady told me “if you are not accepted by one company, then try another company” as if e easy to pass interview for job. No wahala sha, na where I de find better life for my pikin. God de |

Please what type of visa were you applying for? I thought the company engaging you issues you with CoS which in turn you use for your visa application right? Chreze: If you are having visa delay, you might wanna try contacting your MP. I contacted mine, with a clear explanation of how the delay has frustrated me and resulted to losing opportunities. She replied sympathizing and apologized for the difficulty. She contacted the home office and the next day my visa approval mail was in. One of these days when I am in better mood I will tell the full story. But in summary.
Visa was delayed for over 4 months. Wrote different visa department’s (verification, complaint and complaint review), only complaint replied and apologized with a partial promise that didn’t come thru. And yes you miss offers but it is not clearly stated that they are not moving on for the visa thing.
One of the company told me, to apply for the new visa and let them know when it’s out (that’s after I have told them it will be out in a short time because one of my friend got in 48hrs and another in 10days, so I assumed 1month max). Well long story short, after 2months I just comot mind. 4months later, after the visa came, I wrote them and as you will guess no reply (me am not surprised)
2nd company story was painful, but I can’t really blame them. After two core technical interviews with manager and his own manager (lead). Both manager and lead were very ok. The visa delay story came later after I had earlier stated that I had the right to work. Well my visa story led to the lead discussing with the company about it and as you can guess, story changed.
Like I said, one of these days I will tell the whole story about how frustrating the whole situation was. Even my loving neighbor couldn’t do anything as he confirmed and his company will need a valid visa to accept a foreigner. For the home office format that you can work/ get a job while waiting visa decision. I believe that will only work if you were in the company before you applied for renewal. Most companies don’t understand that and are not willing to risk anything for you.
It was the most frustrating time of my life as I hate being handicapped in a situation. But hey, that’s life, like we say in Nigeria “We Move”. |

If you didn't meet up the deadline for your POF ...have you paid your initial deposit (if applicable)? You might have issues getting the CAS issued to you because the universities are already stressed and looking for ways to screen folks out. They need to be sure your application won't be denied by UKVI. Try and email them though. All the best
