Hello bros, I do really thanks you for the guide, pls Shey na 4 thousand Naira or 4 thousand dollars or euro pls kindly clarify it to me bros, I do really appreciate u a lot for your time

Bust my head, if its study visa, from 4,000 euros, for tourist Visa, depending on the way you spend say from 1000 euros, with some on hand to spend easily. With your flights to and fro settled, also the number of days you'll be spending there is a factor is also a factor.

marrywasiu:

As much as possible, say from 4k to start with

Am planning on going for Msc in Fintech at Dublin Business School, Please I need info on scholarships available.

I applied to DBS. They give 1k scholarship for ALL international regardless of ya bsc cgpa. You can apply to other bodies in Europe, but they dont offer to Ireland but to mainly the UK, things should change when they leave the EU, Ireland should then be able to attract such.

Hi everyone
I applied for my Study Visa 21 of October at VFS Abuja, I am yet to hear from the embassy and when I try tracking the package from Ups I get a message that the tracking number is incorrect. Please has anyone experience this? Thank you

Oh dear, yours is supposed to be out by now o. You need to buzz them, email, call them, that incorrect tracking number thingy isn't nice. Try n track through the VFS site too.

marrywasiu:
Hello everybody here on Naira land I need you people advice, can I hold 500euro cash as BTA for visit tourist visa or what do you guys suggest

For cash, its not too bad, but you'll need more in your Atm. A mastercard so you can withdraw.

When last did you hear SARS offset armed robbery in this country? They are often nonexistent during a robbery attack.

If the decision to police a nation goes by public opinion, this task force ought to have been abrogated

I never see oooo, na fresh boys den dey find

Salutem:
I still don't believe how men of Nigerian Army are so humane. Not until I did my NYSC with them. They re just the best set of people you can roll with from the least to the very senior rank.
Flexing at the Officers' Mess is one thing I have missed so much....Even at Senior NCO's mess live football matches and sometimes free drinks....
They re simply the best!!!!

Won't forget my gallant Commanding Officer back then who was Killed when posted to North-East. He was the first Army Officer I encountered during my service (A Major).

God Bless Men and Women of Nigerian Army

Sweet memories, I went there to charge phone ooo, those officers will just order free drinks for we corpers, birthday was even the best, they really made me think twice about the reputation of the army. The ones that you see misbehaving, they've been pushed beyond the limit. Not all of them are the same, generalization come to mind. Surprisingly, I rolled well with them, they're flesh n blood, some of them were scarred from war, lost their friends, those ones are more sensitive. If they gimme slap, I fit reason am, but SARS wey no dey protect us go, how many times you don see SARS caught thief recently. Even wole soyinka in his interview on Friday morning commended the army for their bravery against boko....

SARS has outlived its usefulness.
When it comes to abuse of power, SARS are terrible. I know the extortion they carry out on young men, once they see vpn, dating apps, and white men so friends on your Facebook, my brother just pay or they'll waste you. They enlist those SARS guys to fight terrorism instead of chasing fresh boys.
I served in the North and I know that the Nigeria Army has done ALOT for us. Let's be guided that these are not the ones that will hide when they see bullets, they rather charge towards danger. I lived opposite the Army barrack abd usually frequent the officers mess as a corper, can you imagine, The army allows corpers to chill, watch tv and charge phones where only high ranking officers can enter. I met and interacted with a lot of them and I can boldly say that they will act like the average Nigerians when provoked. Just avoid their camo.

Good evening House.

Visa Issued
I applied: 20th November 2019
Visa Stamped: 9th December 2019
Course: Cybersecurity
School: National College of Ireland, Dublin.

I Received it today!! (NOTE: UPS estimated delivery date was on Monday 16th, but I put a call through their customer care service and requested for it to be delivered today)


Firstly, I want to give all the glory to God almighty, because when I begin to think of all the stress I went through and whatnot for this application, The times I was refused Canada (twice) and USA (Twice) visa. The last refusal was the USA which was in Abuja. Mhen I felt like the universe was against me, wetin i no think that time...... but look at me now shinning my teeth and rejoicing for Joy.




Thanks to @Chiggsglover my real guy, chai this guy gave me reasons to still believe that mine would come out positive, @ICaSNg thanks for your input concerning my application, I am more than grateful and to others going out of their way to do the same, the Lord will reward you.

To those expecting theirs, May the almighty Lord grant you success in your Visa Application.

My brother my brother, congrats ooo, USA & Canada TWICE, you don endure alot and you deserve this Big Win.
I didn't do much oooo, just little words of encouragement.
Boss nonso encouraged me too, The day I got my visa, this nigga told me that early morning that it's my turn. I was like, amen, before 11am, UPS guy called me, I was stunned, he was the first person I called. Before others.
This life is really hard, we get lots of negativity from every corner.
In trying to do good, your mind takes a CONTINENTAL SHIFT from your issues to finding solution to another person problem and you think the universe will leave you empty? Have you wondered why pastors are mostly in good health and they barely commit suicide?
I make it a promise that I will attempt to take out the MOD of this thread for a dinner or something fun. They've impacted IN MY LIFE. I dont know about you.

Chikaokafor1:

ICaSNg:
The best approach to anything in Life is thorough research .

One thing I do tell anyone who cares to listen is that, if pursuing a 1 year masters program abroad choose something closely related to what you've studied for BSc or probably if you've had at least 4 -5 years of work experience in such field or area of study.
Masters is just 1 year you don't have time to be settling or learning 95% new things on such program.

Please find a course you are passionate about, find schools offering such, check out the course structures , carry out more research on whats expected of you as a student or graduate of such course by Employers (i.e skill sets you are meant to have by the time you graduate).

At the end of the day, you don't want to end up wasting over #6m on a course Nairalanders suggested to you.

Studying abroad is a lot of work, Tutors will tell you they are not there to spoon-feed you or hold your hands . You have lectures, course-works, group course-works , personal studying and then working part-time; thats when you realize 24 hours is not enough for 1 day. The only thing that keeps you going eventually is the passion you have for the course.

Thus, go carry out comprehensive research and choose wisely. All the best

You nailed it, was waiting for your reply

naptu2:
Kaduna State also has a bill for an act to ban the almajiri system. It is expected that the bill will be passed into law next year.

This will be great

naptu2:
That is precisely what the policy is about.

1) It is free and compulsory education (so they are not "educationless" )

2) They are forbidden from begging and roaming about (so there's no wandering about)

3) It is western education, so there's no "dashing them out to learn on the street"

4) Outlawing giving birth is a violation of fundamental human rights, so that's not going to happen. What you can do is advocacy, but you can't outlaw it.


Have you actually read the policy?

Seems you're a journalist, you're so loaded mehn.
I served in kebbi state, its only that new Kano government that pushing in this regard. Ganduje, I bow ooo, truth be told, I've not been following the news, Kano is a small state compared to other states in the north, but it brings joy to my soul to see these things you just presented.

But they really need to tell them to control their birth, it's normal for them to marry more than wife and each of then will have more than 2kids, imagine how a government worker earning minimum age can cope. Believe me, minimum wage is a big money in the north.

Yippppeeeee, boss thanks for that, I can sleep better at night now. You really need to experience that to see how serious it is. As the government is worried, that's a good sign oooo.Thanks once again.

Stephanie22:
What were you supposed to pay for?

Suppose to rent house ooo, it's a flat.

Chikaokafor1:
One gatz dy careful ooo, Cuz scammers full dz nairaland

It's one Irish house platform, roomgo,

One scammer just buzzed me o, I told her I cant pay an anonymous person , see instant blocking, on top house matter o.

naptu2:
They said that they are going to integrate "Almajiri" education with Western education.

It's not enough, those boys are still wandering about, fatherless, motherless, homeless, educationless and all the less that me and you enjoyed as kids that made us who we are today. They need to outlaw giving birth to excess number of kids and dashing them to learn on the street. They dash out the ones they cant feed, its horrible, the females are the ones that have value to them cos of bride price and other business they carry out before they marry.

Chikaokafor1:
Apply for social care course..... You'll get job easily Cuz Der are in high demand in Ireland. You won't regret it.

From Economics to social care, the gap wide o, I understand there's vacancy there tho.

I'm soooooo happy for this oooo, thank God that they won't be rushing to become mothers without improving their brain, after this the next is Almajiri boys. That one has made me weak since I served in the north.

Stephanie22:
Thank you so much Chiggsglover for your prompt response. I studied economics as you but i am not good in IT.

I am considering going for the course Business Analytics but i do not know how much of IT is in it.

Do you mean if one does not get a suitable job after the expiration of work visa in Ireland one can apply for a job in US or UK ?

You're welcome, Data Analytics relies solely on computer software to work on data. Business Analytics will be the best for, in this course, it demands your knowledge in management. I feel that you won't rely heavily on computer way a Data Analyst will do. All that is left is some research on what it entails, My course even need me to have idea in python, which is more demanding IT wise, I'm Sharpening my skills in Excel for now.

Mayfav:
Yes o
I would suggest that those of us that are going to Ireland this January should link up(online) and rub minds and probably plan our trip together(might make accomodation easier).
#justasuggestionthough

Very true bro, as it is now, I dey overwhelmed.
