Look at even the set of curtains up there. 4 sets for 100k? With that same amount, you can get up to 6 sets of original Turkish curtains, inner and other accessories.
Bought new curtains for a friend's new apartment last week. 30k in total! Better than this oo.

Which Okene township? The one I drove through on my way to abuja or the even worse alternative one I plied on my return? The Osara University is nowhere near 30% completion. It is there along the federal highway for all to see. Stop trying to sell a bad product.

The bitterness of a cheap article continues after the sweetness of a cheap price has been forgotten. Ignore at your own risk!!

CentOS has gotten to it's end of life. But I like CentOS . I don't know if Ubuntu supports cpanel .
Use CentOS 7 instead, it's more stable compared to CentOS 8
Thank you, I will try this now

Do you have to use CentOS? Can you use Ubuntu?

If no, then what troubleshooting steps have you taken? Have you selected your installation source and destination?

Also change your timezone to Africa/Lagos (not critical but always nice to have)
I have done all troubleshooting seen when installing but still same issue. Maybe I should continue with the class, might see this Ubuntu. Thank you for responding.

Kobojunkiee:
To reduce any unnecessary record keeping burdens, women should keep their maiden names after marriage. It is not like marriage is some sort of rebirth, but instead a mere transitioning from one location to another in many cases. undecided
You get sense.
In Nigeria, the process is draining!

Sequel to my landing gist above,

ENCOURAGEMENT POST

This is just to encourage those of us still in the immigration process not to give up.. u can read up on my landing gist on this thread.

Sequel to my last update here, myself and my wife and kid landed in July 2021. Prior to our arrival my wife got a job offer around March 2021 with one of the big banks ( the whole interview process was conducted online from Nigeria). A major reason she got the job was because she told them she had her PPR but we could not land due to boarder closure at that time. The bank waited till the boarder was opened around June for fully vaccinated migrants.

She resumed work two weeks after we landed, it was a work from home role. I intensified my job search, applied to over a hundred companies and after several interviews with HR and Hiring Managers no job offer. I even started looking for customer service jobs, had an interview with one of the coys, my interviewer was a Ghanian, during the interview he encouraged me not to take the CS job saying that my qualifications and experience was above that role. He told me to be patient that I would get something good. So I signed up to the Acces employment job program ( a 1 week course on employment and interview skills for the Canada job market). Acces is a govt sponsored employment program to help immigrants transition into the Canadian job market.

A week after the end of the course, I applied for several roles in various coys and I eventually got a interview slot with an IT coy via Acces as an operations analyst with a pay of $20. During the interview process, the interviewers were impressed and of course with God's grace, they offered me a higher tole that was paying $38 per hour. I started this role on the first of October 2021 (3 months after I landed).

After I got the job offer, we immediately registered our child to the government day care centre ( I was practically baby sitting for those 3 months while my wife was working although she was working from home).

To cut the long story short, One month into my contract job I got 3 different permanent job offers ( 1 big four accounting firm, 2 big banks). I resigned my contract employment and resumed with one of the big banks. All these offers came within the month of October.

7 months down the line, we have purchased our own house and my wife has changed jobs after getting a much better offer.

Some lessons during the recruitment process:
1. Nothing like 2:1 required
2. Nothing like medical tests
3. Nothing like who do you know or who sent you.
4. Nothing like age limit.
5. Majority of the roles didn't even require a master's degree, your experience was enough.
6. You may not get your preferred role immediately you land but with time, u ll get your preferred role.

This is a country that stills gives my family an excess of $2,500 every month (free child day care worth $1,400, child benefits $692 per month, and other free benefits that just comes into your account HST etc).

The Crux of the matter is that:
1. Migration is not for everyone.
2. If u have chosen to migrate esp to Canada, please be patient with the process, don't give up, trust me the grass is greener on this side.
3. You can do the whole process yourself, u don't need to pay any agent. All the information u need is on this page.


Shalom!!!
Congratulations! Claiming this for husby & I this year.

Properties / Re: Please What Is Happening With Nigeria And Rent Issues? by Brooke60(f): 2:05pm On Feb 08, 2022
adedayourt:
This issue is made worst by the blood thirsty greedy poverty ridden set of people called agents.

For example a landlord wants to let out his house for 200k and he gives it to an agent. (Just this one apartment is that enviroment e.g Ojota )
This agent will inform his agent friend about the vacancy who will in turn inform other agents.

All this agents will add some cut to the original amount when informing an innocent person who wants to rent.


By the time the info trickles down it has gotten to about 400k. On the amout they will still charge agreement and damages. for an apartment of 200k original price.


I was a victim too, but fortunately for me before i paid. I met the landlord who later gave me the original price and insisted that is the amount I should pay.

The landlord is like a father and a family to me today.
I beg, whcih area? Does this man have a 2 bed for rent too?
