I applied this just concluded civil defense too but one just need to know someone to help get the job in this country.. Am always thinking.. No money, no job, no joy.. To even eat is something to me. I don't have 200 naira in my bank account. A friend did this subscription for me as I wanted to apply the Civil defense. I just pray I don't commit suicide soon.. Am tired. Am 31 now. For how long will I continue this way na... At my age I can't boast of 1k in my account imagine.. Am tired seriously. I wake up still na to search for job. Ha

Jobs/VacanciesRe: You Can Still Get That Dream Job!!!!!!!no More Depression/check Here Now by cris83: 2:41pm On Oct 10, 2019
I have a Bachelors degree in Geology from university of Ibadan and masters in Petroleum Geoscience from the university of Ghana. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a job despite my qualifications. I do not have any noticeable skills that will make me stand out from my peers other than I am willing to work hard. Only job I was able to get was in a school and that was before I embarked on my masters program. Since I finished my masters in 2014, I have not gotten a single job. I need help desperately please. I reside in Lagos.
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by cris83: 6:51pm On Aug 29, 2019
Please pardon me. I am looking for this particular Microsoft basic optical mouse. Does any pc seller have it in ikeja?

ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by cris83: 11:30am On Aug 24, 2019
Good day good people. Please I needed your help with my desktop. A computer technician built a pc for me based on my specifications which are:
AMD Ryzen 5 3400g
AsRock b450 Pro 4 motherboard
Adata 4gb ram and Ballistix 4gb ram
ZSseries 650w psu
XFX rx 580 8gb graphics card
128gb ssd and 1 tb hdd

When he delivered it to me 3 weeks ago, it was working perfectly up until 2 days ago when I put it to sleep and went to sleep myself. I woke up the next day and turned it on, nothing. No power any where except one of the lights on the fan. Amd fan was off and no case fans came on. I tried another cord and same thing no power. I called in the technician and he brought with him another power supply (corsair 1000w) and another power cord. It did not come on despite testing with another psu. So he took it back to his work place to have a look at it thoroughly. He called m and told me it came on in its work place and that he did not do anything. He sent me pictures of the pc working well and booting into desktop where I saw my desktop picture so all was OK. He brought it back to my home yesterday and again it didn't come on. Nothing. Tried with two different UPS and nothing @ all. All other home appliances are working perfectly. Is there something wrong with my motherboard for it not to work in my home? Thank you. I really need advice on what to do.

Fine, can you make purchases from Best Buy?

The eBay link is also sold by newegg... unfortunately i don’t buy from that seller because they are literally a pain and extremely incompetent with handling orders from my experiences with them. If you can provide a link on eBay from a different seller I will be happy to help
Are you literally saying all 3 items cant be bought from newegg or just the amd processor thats the problem...

TheAristocrat:
RECAP:. Did my B1\B2 visa interview in January,2019.At the end, the VO informed me that my application needs to undergo Administrative Processing and the embassy will send me a form (DS-5535) via email,which I should fill and send back to them. The email came a month later.I did as instructed and the wait began. Last week,I missed a call from the embassy and called back without success.Checked my inbox to see a mail from them asking me to come for a follow-up interview before this week ends. sad huh So, I went for the interview today. Below is the transcript VO:Good morning, welcome to the US Embassy.
Me:Good Morning***passes passport to her*** VO:Aside the timing for your trip, has anything changed since the last time you came here? Me:No. VO: You're going to Houston? Me: Yes. VO:When would you like to go? Me:September VO: How long will you stay? Me: 1 week. VO: Why Houston? Me: My colleagues go there often and I would like to see things for myself. VO: Do you have family in the US?
Me:No VO: You'll be staying in a hotel? Me:Yes.
VO:How much do you earn? Me: N730k. VO: Are you married? Me:No.
VO:How come?***laughs*** Me: I'm still searching for the right person I guess.
VO:you work in *******?(an agency in Federal Ministry of Petroleum Resources) Me:yes VO: And you've been there since 20** ? Me:Yes VO:***picks passport,flips through while naming the stamps, used and valid visas*** VO:I see you have an unused UK visa.When do you plan going to the UK? Me: probably in September. VO:okay.everything looks good.pick up your passport in 3-4 days. Me: Quick question.Is it compulsory I travel in September? VO:You want to visit Houston in the fall.A slip of 1-2 months from your stated travel date is okay.However, we prefer that you arrive at your stated destination in US and spend the stated time for the visit in your application.You need to establish credibility of your intent.Am I clear? Me: Yes Coincidentally, the same pleasant lady that interviewed me earlier in the year also did today's interview.Hope things go smoothly from here.
Congrats...

I bought NEW Swift Sim card on Tuesday at computer village for 10k including 30gb plan for 30 days, i think its a fair deal.

Now the modem I have is not supported, what modem is best for Swift Network please? Is ZTE MF920V suitable?
Get the airtel e5573cs-609. Works well with it

You tried bro, take heart, I think 3 things are wrong, firstly you said you spent 3 month, secondly another 1 month, thirdly your brother got married to a US citizen, which means your brother enter with B1/B2. If am not wrong. To the VO it was clear that you might want to stay back and do like your brother did.
Thanks. He's the one that asked me why I stayed for 3 months and I responded. My reasons were genuine. Secondly, my brother got married to his wife here in Nigeria as she came down to marry him, and not the other way around and both went to the embassy for his visa.
TravelRe: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by cris83: 11:13am On Jun 06, 2019
It was pink slip day @ embassy in Lagos. I and my mom were denied. Perhaps 1 white in 20 pink slips today.
V. O good morning, why would you like to visit the US... I answered for holidays as I and my mom would love to travel during the Christmas season.
V. O where would you be going to.... California
V. O do you have any brother or sister you would be visiting?... Yes a brother
V. O is he a citizen? Yes
V. O how did he get his citizenship? (as soon as he said this I knew trouble don come)... He's married to an American
More typing (facials were not good from him. A few frowns, more furious typing, sighed a bit, more typing then stopped, looked @ my passport and my mom's, he asked how come no stamp on the last one, and I said it was returned back via Dropbox. He stamped it. Scanned some more and dropped them, back to typing).....
V. O Why did you stay in the US for 3 months?... I needed a long break from my masters as I just finished from the university of Ghana so I can be fresh to resume my work @ our business.
V. O what do you do?... I am an administrative supervisor @.......
(back to typing, not good facials again, and never asked my mom a single question)
V. O when was you last trip to the US? Last year for a month. We went to New York for holidays as well and saw......(more typing yet again and then)...sorry you do not qualify for a visa @ this time, have a nice day.

I smiled and thanked him. Mom, let's go I said.

I give God the glory in all disappointments so that's my story today.

The Swift Nomad (E5172s-920) only supports 4G band 7(2600) & 40(2300mHz) so you can only use it for MTN, Swift & Spectranet; while Airtel mifi (E5573Cs-609) supports 4G bands 3(1800mHz), and 40(2300mHz) so you can use it with Airtel, 9mobile, Ntel, Swift & spectranet.


You should renegotiate the price of the SIM. I was able to get the SIM & the merit plan for the price you're getting the SIM. Also, make sure whoever is selling the sim to you changes the details in the SIM to yours so they can't reset password and leave the SIM useless, which is what a Nairalander (RebornHombre or so) did to me.
If you're buying a SIM, I recommend buying from a Swift agent directly.

In summary, I would recommend the first option, because you get to test the network in your area with it, and if it's not good enough, at least you can use the mifi with other networks.
Thanks for the suggestion. I still went ahead and bought the sim from the guy @ least I paid 4k sha. Once I got it, I changed password, phone number, and email address so all my transactions are now being delivered to my email and phone. I got also the modem you suggested and it works well. I just sub for 3k swift promo to test the speed of download and 2-3mb/'s with just 3 service bars is not bad @ my end. Thanks bro

Have been following the forum and we are always advised to speak the truth. I read here when one lady was asked same question and she answered same. She was granted the visa and adviced to pay all her bills if she gets pregnant within the 2yrs visa. Would i have liedhuh Pls educate me. Thanks

I was denied visa today. Its like today was a day for refusals as only an old lady i saw that got the visa all others got denied. I have been to the us 3times and never faulted. Well USA would be on hold for now till further notice. The wahala is too much. We go through alot just to get visas. Well i blame the government though. Was so suprised that nigs can coordinate and behave themselves. Meanwhile i saw a lady that came out of her car, used an egg to surround her head n her children and threw it down before walking to the embassy �. Hmmmm is this what Nigeria has deteriorated to? How did we get here? Howhuh
Was that Lagos or Abuja office?

OK guys who are Swift users, I need your honest advice. Which is preferable: Buying a used swiftsim for 5k, plus airtel 4g LTE modem compatible with the sim for 12k then swift promo data of 3k all for 20k OR brand new Swift nomad modem with 30gb for one month for 23k.
