I agree with you but you know not all fingers are equal. Not everyone can afford BA or others you mentioned and they always have to cut corners to book the ones they did but end up being treated poorly.

They are lovely people to be with unlike the perception painted by Nigerian online feminists. Women who are feminists only want to be treated equal as men nothing more than that. They want to be in charge of their choices - don't foist your will on them or try to make them look like a pity party or grant them concessions just because they are females. If you abide by their rules, trust me you go love die kiss

Is there anyone here married to a feminist lady.

I need inputs.

Why do feminist ladies end up not married or have failed marriages.

Nigeria goalkeeper Richard Odoh was selected as the Man-of-the-Match in the Finals of the Under 17 WAFU Zone B Championship. The talented 16 year old goal keeper is definitely one to watch out for in the future.

His compatriot Emmanuel Michael won the prize in all three previous matches against Ghana, Togo, and Cote d’Ivoire wile Odoh won the award in the final game.

Sad how everyone seem to be castigating her yet forgot to read this part - in this Buhari's Nigeria, she's helping to repay a loan, cater for herself, her daughter and someone else's daughter. Haba feel pity for her naau. Do you all know her reality? Do you know the business she's into or if it's profitable?

I understand when you marry you marry into your husband's family but hey the husband's family wahala should not end up and join your own.

@Olarhhh - I understand you and your pain what I would advise is just tolerate the situation because you don't want your husband's family to tun against you and trust me when things stabilizes for your husband, he may end up dumping you for another if his family goes against you. Try as much as you can to have a sit down with your sister in-law and help her become productive and resourceful. See her as your sister and treat her as such even if she's rude or being unreasonable. Above all -PRAY.....PRAY dear!


Olarhhh:
I and my husband live in a mini flat (a room and parlor self contain) and since the very day we got the place early last year, his younger brother has been living with us because he fought with their father and my husband told him to come over to his place (we weren't married then but live together) so he continued living with us till he went to school last year November, and we were both happy that we can finally have our own privacy.
Meanwhile my husband has a very nosy family, different family member keep coming to visit Everytime and spending up to 2 weeks until I change attitude to them and make them leave,,
Fast forward to December, a month after his brother left, the parents called to let his sister move with us, hubby declined but his family won't budge so he accepted. Now hubby has travelled abroad and the sister wouldn't leave, I don't know what to do, she doesn't do anything here and she's rude. I want her to leave, I've tried stopping all the comfort she enjoys when her brother was around.
Hubby travelled without being stable yet, left some loan behind that I have to sort through business, business isn't good also cos he borrowed some business money, no foodstuffs at home and I still have to cater for the sister, before you blame me put your sister or wife in my shoes, the father still calls to collect money despite all this and I have my daughter to cater for.. so much story behind it that can't be told,, to think that he travelled because his family problem was unbearable

Hmmm interesting - was the amount placed on lien after the initial submission?

The first step usually after you submit your form is for the bank to place the amount requested equivalent in Naira under lien (you still see it under your book balance but its not available to you). Was that done? Else if they had placed 50% in lien, amending to 75% may have consequences. You might want to contact your account officer at your bank.

I learn it takes between 3-4 weeks with some banks or 8 weeks with some others.


tosino0000:
I changed the amount from 50% to 75%. I did this because of the delay in form A. My next payment for my tuition fee will be due by Sept and I don’t want to go through this long wait again

What amendment did you do and why? Were you prompted to do it?

tosino0000:
Hello House,

Does anyone have an idea how long it takes CBN to review and approve Form A application after the applicant makes an amendment on the form. More so, will the waiting period continue counting or it will start all over? Because the application was 3 weeks on ADB_Disbursement review before the amendment was made
Travel › Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by bigtt76(f): 7:43pm On Jun 24, 2022
All banks offer the I&E window but you could end up being blacklisted by CBN if found that you misapplied funds meant for Investors & Exports to pay your fees. The bank would deny you, your choice though

Well Sky News is not a cheap blogging site though undecided


HRprof:
Stop reading from cheap blogger, how would they maltreat the boy when they could easily send him back to Nigeria. Mind you this boy went with medical visa meaning they fellow due process but what I though would have happened is that he wasn't clearly informed of the implications of kidney donation and he got to discover when he arrived UK probably informed by the doctor and he change his mind and claim 15 years

True. I think the guy knows what he's up to and lied to gain sympathy cheesy


WatchYourSix:
I dont think the senators can be stupid to hide and deceive the boy and bundle him the uk... remeber he brought him to the uk legally under his account details specifically using the medical trip option to donate his organ..

Ma,with this it will be hard to prove the senator wanted to steal the boy's organ without his knowledge....

The plausible explanation is that the boy knew what he was doing...he just decided to run under the system that his sympathetic to minors

Unless theres an agent willing to come foward that he connected the two for a price

From what I read and heard on the news, when the doctor rejected him due to the age declaration, the family now started maltreating the boy who also saw that he was going to be set back home high and dry, decided to escape from their home to the police. The senator and wife were arrested on their way to Turkey.


HRprof:
The boy isn't the one that reported it to police it was doctor whom they boy told he is 15 yrs and doctor was like how can a minor consented to this agreement and doctor reported the matter to police

Nice one - so they will sell to you at a higher rate what was meant for Investors & Exports then replace with what CBN allocated for your fees originally and sell that again at the I&E rate. Nigerian banks are deliberately causing the delays it seem angry


Happyfellow147:
All I did was call customer service after my form got to disbursement stage.

First, I wrote them stating my deadline and the urgency of processing my payment.
They gave me a call back and introduced the I&E option asking if I was interested.
Seeing that the rate is almost same with CBN rate, I asked that they go ahead.
Then I continued following them up with calls.
That's all I did
Politics › Re: Passport Of Kidney Donor In Ekweremadu's 'Organ Harvesting” Saga Shows He Is 21 by bigtt76(f): 7:11pm On Jun 24, 2022
Ofcourse they will do MRI bone tests etc to arrive at the boy's true age.


mvem:
you think that's how serious investigation is carried out
Politics › Re: Passport Of Kidney Donor In Ekweremadu's 'Organ Harvesting” Saga Shows He Is 21 by bigtt76(f): 7:09pm On Jun 24, 2022
Its the boy's words against the senator's. I noticed that the passport was issued in Abuja a month before the visa application meaning he might have been housed in Abuja for a while and before this trip whereas his BVN details placed his location at Ikotun, Lagos.

Questions are bound to be asked who connected them to him. Perhaps he's an accomplice BUT what if the real intent was not made known to him? What if he was recruited as a domestic staff for oga and he was hoodwinked into doing the tests and landed UK. In the UK nau instead of work he may have been promised, he ended up in hospital to donate kidney.

My question again would be how the boy knew the police station to report to ....well may be he sort directions when he escaped.


WatchYourSix:
....proving the kidney was negotiated for like a spare part will in ladipo will still be hard ...the senator can deny the boy just wanted to help them...Remember its not a crime to compensate the donor as long as theirs no documentation for negotiation


I doubt the boy is some random street kid.. he coukd be a distant relative...chances that some random street boy they picked up will have the same rhesus factor as the senators daughter is very slim....so if hes a distant relative or from same village, it coukd even make the senator more believable that the the boy and his family just wanted to help
Politics › Re: Passport Of Kidney Donor In Ekweremadu's 'Organ Harvesting” Saga Shows He Is 21 by bigtt76(f): 6:28pm On Jun 24, 2022
They will do the bone test definitely. Na guys like this de represent naija for Under 16-17 worldcup cheesy

WatchYourSix:
They might take him for bone testing to check his age to get a rough figure
..i hope hes 15 on face book..cos some people posted his facebook pictures...if he did waec...it could help..
..

all together... i saw NIN on that passport...meaning officially, by nigerian law and documentation, the nigga is 21....its evidence tgat will hold in court.... if they cant prove the senator forced him to declare false age at NIN office and passport office.

.. like your said ..it will just be his words against a federal senators' ...

The senator can easily deny..
Politics › Re: Passport Of Kidney Donor In Ekweremadu's 'Organ Harvesting” Saga Shows He Is 21 by bigtt76(f): 6:26pm On Jun 24, 2022
But from the guy's BVN details posted on this thread, it shows the guy lied about his age to the UK authourities. His date on the BVN record matched that on the passport and showed he is 21 years.

Donating organ for financial or material benefit is a crime and that's what the senator can be charged with except he's able to establish family relationship with the guy and beside that, the issue of maltreatment may also arise based on the purported allegations the guy made.


WatchYourSix:
Thats why i said the lawyer that will prove the senator knew the boy is under age before falsifying his passport will do a lot of work...
Saving his daughter isnt a crime through willful kidney donarion in exchange for some compensation isnt a crime..

The boy came through immigrations, his picture and several cameras have picked him up... force or coercion is off the table...its like tgey brough him through the sea or lybia...

I feel its not going to be hard for a federal senator to prove that the boy lied hes 21 for financial gain..

Makes more sense now cos all the panic this 28 and 31 days thing de cause eh. Watched a university's video on this and they stated same as you did.. Thanks buddy kiss

AlphaUno:
You can use a 60 day POF but officially it’s 28 days minimum. If your POF has been available since April,
- Print it and use b4 d 31 days elapse
- don’t print but keep running d account till your other docs or CAS is/are ready and then print

I ve used 35, 43, 58 days statements b4. Using those longer days put your mind at rest but if raba no too dey, try 28 days in peace but make sure you use the print out b4 31 days after printing.
The point is, print your statement as many times as possible unless of course you run am and those folks tell you that you ll pay to print

But on grounds of the intentions behind it, they might still be reprimanded angry


WatchYourSix:
The senator may walk free from this case under the grounds of deniability of the boy's true age..people donate kidneys
..the lawyer that will prove the senator has knowledge the boy is 15 will need a lot of luck because its always hard to prove intention.

Once a lawyer can prove the boy Isnt 15 (because this yahooboy im seeing may not be 15) or lied hes 21 for the finacial gain and later used the system that is sympathetic to minors to escape .....they may just throw the case out

casualobserver:
Passport does not mean anything. More important is his BVN registration. As you can see he registered 3 and a half years ago. It is very unlikely that Ekweremadu even knew him 3 years ago or had been grooming him for 3 years for kidney donation.
