TravelRe: Nigeria Deports 28 South Africans As Row Deepens by collinsfbi(m): 3:28pm On Mar 06, 2012
God bless you immensely my brother for this enlightenment.You see my people,everybody dey try protect their own garri,which is why some thought the actions on the part of Nigerian government is poor.
My countrymen need to visit www.news24.com and www.fin24.com and read what south African nationals stand on the deportation of 125 Nigerians.So many of them even suggested blasting them and their aircraft off south African air space.
This action had been on for long but thank goodness it involved a Nigerian senator, amongst those detained before deportation.
South africans are amongst the foreign nationals who had EXPLOITED this country (of course in connivance with corrupt and greedy government officials)so much in areas of telecommunications and bilateral trade.
Let the DSTV signal but interferred with for 3 days,let MTN networks be disabled for 2 days,you all will witness immediate CHANGES of their dispostions towards Nigerians.
I feel really proud of abike dabiri and the action those who cried out from the government quarters have taken.
Try and get the correct info, the senator involved was allowed entry even after being alleged to have the same fake paper and the worst of all, same senator felt unconcerned and ignored the rest of the pple involved.

TravelRe: South Africa Vs North Cyprus by collinsfbi(m): 2:51pm On Mar 06, 2012
The question has no answer because it is based on the immoral, illegal and perverse existence of your institution and the willingness of those who own/operate and participate in its activities. It cannot be compared with any Universities in Cyprus or the rest of the world. You have to go back to the dark ages of apartheid in South Africa to find a comparable, namely an educational institution created and operated on the basis of supporting a bigoted and racist regime dedicated to ethnic and religious cleansing/division.

With every post you demonstrate the immoral world that you inhabit and through which your institution seeks to infect the rest of the world.
Sincerely, i don't know where you are coming from but i am highly interested in where you are going with this comment.

TravelRe: South Africa Vs North Cyprus by collinsfbi(m): 2:37pm On Mar 06, 2012
With respect I am familiar how accreditation works and how it can be manipulated and obtained. Bearing in mind your boasting, why is it that you refer to a 'south Cyprus' when there is no such legal entity. There is a Republic of Cyprus, created in 1960 whose sovereignty, territorial integrity and constitution was and should be guaranteed by Turkey. Clearly your accreditation does not extend to law, politics and geography. If you are so quick to spread Turkish propaganda in this forum I dread to think what it would be like at the campus.

What do you mean "Whether the land is stolen or occupied is not my point now" and your comparison to "Flat-Like or room like institutions in unstolen land". What type of immoral comment is that? What right to you have to go on someone else's land, build on it, use it as your own and then invite innocent students to participate in your dishonest appropriation? What right do you have to sneer at institutions that have to pay for the land they are working from? If you can be so dishonest and immoral over such important issues, moral, ethical and legal, what faith can anyone have in your accreditations and the rest of what you do and teach on this stolen land. 

Your willingness to boast about your theft and the obvious immoral and illegal practices you so willingly engage in speaks volumes about you and your establishment and should be a warning to all students considering the Turkish occupied north of Cyprus for their further education.

Such students should also bear in mind that the legal system in the occupied area also has the same immoral and illegal concepts and anyone seeking redress in the occupied area for anything that can happen whilst they are studying there, including issues with its politically supported educational establishments, are likely to get short shrift.
I wonder if I actually understand the basis for your argument, looking at your responses so far on this thread, they add no value rather than derailing the focus and the purpose of the thread. Either North Cyprus is a country or not, I don't think that is main purpose of this thread, your argument is derailing the thread pls try and apply some sense of maturity.

@talk2tosep,

I think that is a great development for SA government, it was revealed some months ago that there is no more asylum for Nigerians and some other countries and I think it's a very good development because I wonder why Nigerians will travel all the way to SA, overstay their visit and trying to seek asylum, for what and on what basis? Boko haram or what? If many are deported through this medium, I think it will reduce the rate at which Nigerians fleeing to SA.

TravelRe: How Can I Get Travl Document To South Africa, Pls Help by collinsfbi(m): 8:38am On Mar 01, 2012
my friends pls can any one here tell me what they mean by power of attorney?
they says letter from power of attoney need to be enclosed
A power of attorney (POA) or letter of attorney is a written authorization to represent or act on another's behalf in private affairs, business, or some other legal matter.

POWER OF ATTORNEY is used in respect of an application for (A) IMMIGRATION PERMIT(S)
OR TEMPORARY RESIDENCE IN THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA, OR FOR THE
EXTENSION OF THE VALIDITY THEREOF
(B) SEAMEN VISA
(C) BUSINESS VISA
(D) STUDY PERMIT and others
[See Sections 25 and 26 of the Aliens Control Act, 1991 (Act No. 96 of 1991): Regulation 13A]

Currently, the Immigration Act, 2002 (Act No 13 of 2002) aims to facilitate and simplify the application and issuing process of permits, as well as regulate immigrants by making sure they adhere to certain criteria. As a result of this, Home Affairs, decided to give legal right to various immigration practitioners who are registered with the Department to assist immigrants in putting together their applications for the specific type of permit that they need. In making use of such a practitioner, you are essentially giving them power of attorney to act on your behalf in South Africa, so make sure that they are legitimate and that they are genuinely registered with the Department.

Power of Attorney form is usually completed by the applicant, with a revenue stamp pasted on it

Generally it's not applicable to Tourist/Family visit visa.

Use a paid hotel booking to get your visa in place of letter of invitation.

@all, power of attorney form/letter is not applicable to tourist/family visa. Below are the comprehensive requirements for tourist/family visa:

TravelRe: How Can I Get Travl Document To South Africa, Pls Help by collinsfbi(m): 3:46pm On Feb 28, 2012
Unfortunately, I am typing with a phone so I can't quote you guys. First and formost, flight booking is one the visa requirements by South African Embassy in Nigeria so Faakay and TayoFTC is right and Vicjustice is wrong but no airline will allow you to make full booking without payment but you can make seat reservation without payment which is allowed by the South African embassy and you make payment later when your visa is issued, so Vicjustice is right with his defence that no airline will grant full booking without payment.On the other hand, Faakay and TayoFTC are also wrong by using the word "booking" rather than seat reservation. On the other hand, hotel booking is also one of the most important document required before visa is issued and it must be a paid hotel with evidence and this can also be done online.

Most importantly, pls avoid insults while replying to post because we are all here to learn and educate one another.

TravelRe: invalid by collinsfbi(m): 2:47pm On Feb 28, 2012
I still think it is unfair to require payment for such, some people paid huge amount of money and they have only had their National Passports for as little as six months before they were warned to pay another huge fee for the E-Passport even while their National Passport had some 4.5 years left.
   When Latvia and the other nine countries joined the EU, and when they needed to change their national passport to the EU type, they didn't just enforce a deadline to phase out their National Passport, rather they allowed it to valid along with the EU passport until their expiring dates, and it was totally up to the citizens to either go for the new EU passport or to hold on to their national passport. And most Latvians went for the New EU Passport when they realised that their National Passport was no longer allowed to enter the United States, Canada, Japan without a visa: for your information, Latvians (as well as other countries) pay just 12 Euros to get a new passport.
   If Nigeria is a person that respects citizens rights, they should have followed this regulation,
I believe you know Nigerians so well and many atrocities committed with the old passport so i don't expect much deliberation on this topic. The FG finds the need for the implementation of the E-passport, it was introduced and to certain extent, it reduces crime of impersonation and other related offenses. Even if Nigerians with valid old "P" have to pay to get for the new "P", i still feel Nigerians should be happy that such was introduced. Considering the secure usage of the new "P" with finger print and other secured measures i think feel it right for the FG to stop the uses of the old "P" world wide. The introduction of the new "P" to me is still one of the best things Nigerian Government has done so far to help reduce rate of impersonation. It was done to protect your right as a Nigerian in term of alteration made to stolen passport by fraudsters, nothing more beneficial can be done than implementing the new "p" and stopping the use of the old "p"

TravelRe: I Wish To Go For My M.sc Program In Canada. by collinsfbi(m): 2:19pm On Feb 28, 2012
@wip4 I just applied for Msc in comp sc in MUN but unfortunately I realised that they were demanding a GRE.I do not want to put all my eggs in one basket because I am not sure that they might eventually take me.Please can u refer me to some other schools even if its technical programs in Networking or Graphic designs? I feel its better I apply to other schools in Canada or does anyone have any idea of where I could also apply to? I am a 2-2 stud with a Masters degree also.
What exactly do you want, low tuition graduate school for int'l students or schools with quality education? At the same time, Considering your first master degree and if your first degree CGPA is around 3.4 you can try and apply for your computer science at Acadia University in Nova Scotia Province, their annual tuition fee is around $9,376.00 but you could be allowed to pay in two installment payment depending on your entry period. Better still, contact the school directly through an email and find out your chances of being admitted. Note, Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is one the requirements into their graduate programme, so pls be informed. Check for more details through this link; http://gradstudies.acadiau.ca/admission.html

On the other hand, looking at MUN graduate application procedures, strong emphasis is not placed on TOEFL and GRE most especially for applicants with English as mode of instruction, so you still stand a chance considering your first master degree. GRE is not included as a strong requirement in the school website; http://www.mun.ca/become/graduate/programs/computational.php but code for TOEFL and GRE was only shown in the departmental website; http://www.mun.ca/science/graduate/interdisciplinary/cmsc/requirements.php for applicants who may wish to send TOEFL or GRE score to them in support of his/her application.

LiteratureRe: How To Write Or Becoming An Author Without The Knowledge Of Literature by collinsfbi(m): 2:02pm On Feb 08, 2012
Gud day writers, i love writing, i write stories a lot but don't knw how to develop it to become people's need nd dnt ve enough idea of writing, because of my academic background. I am a science student in high school nd now studyin mech eng. in higher institution. I love writing, nd wud love to become a writer but don't know how to go about. So, any advice may be i can still make as a writer or not nd which aspect of writing. Tanx
Writing has different facets, believe me anybody can write and anybody can flow with words, grammars and ideas but it takes quality choice of word (diction), quality sequence of arrangement of events (plot), quality inductive and deductive reasoning and many quality terms to be prolific in writing. Sometimes, academic background is not the basis for writing but many scholars from the faculty of arts tend to be prolific in writing than their counterparts from other disciplines. As earlier advised, attend creative writing workshops, study some basic literary writing concepts, be familiar with various literary terms and their appropriate usage, study previous works, styles of prolific writers and authors on the aspect of writing you wish to write on, then work hard to justify your work. I hope this helps?

I want to know if u have an idea if they accept installmental payment on the tuition fee? Thanks!
As for Graduate Studies @mun, their graduate tuition payment system is per semester payment and that is one the advantages why many Nigerian students prefer mun to other schools in Canada because it is affordable and easy to cope in terms of tuition payment.
