The last person I give this advice just buy g-wagon. The lenders still dey find am🤣🤣🤣

LOL you like the guy wella ooo... Na better person you be jare! 👊🏽😄

One of my friends in Nigeria also partially fell victim to some scammers who promised him a visa to New Zealand. They manipulated the guy with ETA and they said he'd cross into New Zealand via boat cruise. Even when I was telling this my guy it was a scam, he didn't quite believe until the scammers now showed their true color.

Unfortunately, because of these scammers, even the legit agents are now called scammers once the visa doesn't come out.

In my own experience, some Nigerians who want to go abroad don't like the truth and always opt for cheaper routes because they don't want to fulfil the prerequisites and that's when they get scammed.

If you must visit any country, try to do your personal research so you don't fall victim. It's also better for you to process your visa yourself and if you cannot, make sure you have adequate knowledge in the entire process.

Why bring that to Nairaland instead of their office? Nepa office no dey nairaland na...

Go to their office and lodge a complaint! 😒

danadamu:
I am also trying to apply from Abuja and facing your exact situation, how did you go about the application please with respect to the bolded?

I believe the Lagos Consulate is the default processing center on the digital portal for the Chancenkarte visa in Nigeria.

As for other categories of visa (tourist etc), you can still apply in Abuja if you reside in the North or fall within some special categories.

Good morning noble men and women. I submitted my application in August 19th and have been on waiting list since then. My SL will expire by end of this October, is it possible to get a new extended SL from my sister who lives in Germany and can the SL be issued for like one year period?
Thanks to everyone who keeps giving us tips for a successful journey to land the Opportunity Card- Remain blessed 🫡🫡🫡

Nothing to worry about since you're still on the waiting list.

When you cross to preliminary review stage, you'll be allowed to update your documents so you can always get a new SL from your sister and upload it on the portal...

Core of Economics is Quantitative:
• Economic models, demand-supply curves, elasticity, and forecasting all require mathematical reasoning.
• Data interpretation — GDP trends, inflation, fiscal deficits, is meaningless without math.

As expected, you don't understand what you're talking about. No understanding whatsoever.

Thanks for confirming my previous assertion.

malali:
Your argument assumes that Mathematics in the arts is only about numbers, but that’s a narrow view. At the university level, Mathematics develops structured thinking, logical reasoning, and analytical rigor, skills that are essential in almost every discipline, including the arts.

For instance:
• Economics, Political Science, and Sociology require statistical analysis to interpret data and draw conclusions.
• Architecture, Design, and Music Theory rely on ratios, patterns, and structural logic.
• Philosophy, Linguistics, and Literary Analysis benefit from deductive reasoning and pattern recognition.

It’s not about teaching every arts student to become an engineer; it’s about training the mind to think critically, methodically, and quantitatively. Removing Mathematics as a prerequisite risks producing graduates who struggle with reasoning in research, data interpretation, and problem-solving, core university competencies.

Yes, education continues outside the classroom, but the university is where structured intellectual foundations are built. Bypassing Mathematics because it seems “irrelevant” is short-term thinking that undermines intellectual rigor, not a liberation of learning.

The mere fact that you included economics, shows that you really don't know what you're talking about. Everyone knows economics is a social science, with a lot of its core calculation based on statistics, which is a branch of mathematics. That should never have been included no matter the point you're trying to make...

The question I asked you is totally different from the answer you gave, please don't beat about the bush! Does having an A, B or C grade in WAEC (the grade itself) have any practical application or practical use in any arts degree in school? What does having those particular grades (the grades ooo) help you achieve during the degree at the university! Kindly explain! Since you believe grades = knowledge...

If you cannot answer the above directly, then you're just writing what you don't really understand.

malali:
Mathematics Is a Lifeline, Not a Luxury

Dropping Mathematics as a requirement for arts and humanities students may look like inclusion, but in reality, it’s intellectual disarmament.

Math isn’t just about numbers. It’s the language of logic, structure, and critical thinking, the very foundation of coherent thought, debate, and disciplined reasoning that the humanities thrive on.

Every field, from economics, law, and linguistics to philosophy and music, is quietly underpinned by mathematical reasoning: pattern, proportion, structure, rhythm, and evidence-based argument.

To remove Math is to unplug an entire generation from analytical literacy. You may raise enrollment figures, yes, but you lower the nation’s cognitive baseline.

If Nigeria truly wants to compete globally, we should be strengthening Mathematics education, not treating it as optional for those “not gifted with numbers.” That mindset fuels mediocrity.

Great civilizations didn’t grow by lowering the bar, they rose by raising competence and investing in skill mastery.

You're a traditional thinker with a fixed mindset and this mentality of yours is really harmful. Kindly tell me the practicality of having an A1 in mathematics for arts disciplines... Please don't talk about the use of arithmetic in daily lives, every primary school leaver can handle basic arithmetic, but at university level, should those who have a D or E at math be prevented from moving forward with their study despite the fact that it has nothing to do with mathematics?

If they need real-life mathematical skills, anyone can get that outside the 4 walls of the university, but the O-level shouldn't be a prerequisite for a degree when the curriculum has nothing to do with mathematics. Another thing is the hypocrisy in our educational system cos a lot of people with flawless results actually used "runs" to achieve it, it is still going on today. Some people with a D in maths are better than some with an A in math, cos we know they arrange these things, unless we want to be hypocrites.

Once again, shed your traditional thinking- education doesn't end in the 4 walls of the university and anyone can learn virtually anything at any point of their lives. If anyone needs analytical skills, they don't need a credit in WAEC for that as you put it. It has only remained a prerequisite for admissions cos the older generation deemed it fit.

achorladey:
We base our calculations on points deducted already not on points they all have without deduction of points obtained from the lowest team in each group.

Currently DR Congo have 13 points after their points deduction. If they win their remaining game later today, they will have 16 points and push Nigeria down to 4th position and Nigeria will push out Burkina Faso out of the final spot because Nigeria has same point with Burkina Faso but better Nigeria have better goal difference than Burkina Faso on the table.

Lukuluku69:
2 Points we got from the Zimbabwe games will be deducted too.

Thanks for the clarification guys.

Reloadedisraelp:
KI taya ooo using 16point to compare 17point ...I wonder the kind of school dat one attend 🙄

They just clarified, see above posts.

achorladey:
If Dr Congo win they will have maximum of 16 points and push Nigeria back to number 4 on that second best table. Nigeria will now push Burkina Faso out because that goal number 4 by Nigeria today made Nigeria have a goal difference of +7 and Burkina Faso have a goal difference of +6. Because Nigeria have more goals than Burkina Faso that is the simple reason that made us enter the playoff.

Nigeria is on 17 pts, what are you guys calculating!‽

LagosOrigin:
They've qualified for play offs

So yes, Nigeria is in good position to qualify.

In a position to qualify, remove the "good" first, let's humble ourselves. Good position would have been 3 or 4 matches ago, this one na patch-patch.

May God help us! 🙏🏽

Nwabali needs to be very careful!!!

This Ashabi really downgraded herself because of small fame and money that Portable has! Some ladies just don't have any level, no matter their level or education or exposure, they must date or marry riff-raffs.

I think this just goes a long way to show that a lot of Nigerian ladies don't really have a spec, just have small money, even if you're a tout, they will marry you. Imagine how many "classy" girls this portable go don sleep with... I can't even imagine! Some of them go form porsche but na trenches boys, yahoo boys, touts, agbero etc dey knack them silly, all because of small change. Tufiakwa!

Yorubastardz:
Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has set social media ablaze after sharing a private WhatsApp chat between his babymama, Ashabi Simple, and a cleric. Eyes Of Lagos reports

@Seun Please how can people register with the type of ID (Yorubastardz) and you allow such? Please this is really offensive and I suggest you add creation of such offensive ID or usernames to a prohibition list.

Thanks

I don't even know who gave Tinubu the clemency list, it's the most unintelligent thing he has ever done in his tenure.

How can you free known kidnappers, murderers, drug dealers etc? That's not how to use clemency now! It makes no sense!

Perhaps, there's more to it than meets the eye, maybe it's all for 2027, who knows...

Sonnobax15:

Saw a video on Facebook recently about how Ghanians were chanting and screaming that Nigerians and other nationals should leave their country...

Now,back to the op,do this journey to Ghana by road worth it at all?

The Nigerians who are there, what did they do? Was it not the Eze Ndigbo stuff that caused trouble there? We don't like the truth at all.

Anyone who wants to visit another man's country or even another state or town within your country, must respect their rules and laws.

SpaceX:
Audio investment and hope terrorism investment is not included because Qataris can't be trusted

You took those words out of my mouth. Qatar was the hiding place for Hamas when Israel was bombarding them in Gaza and we've also heard reports of Qatar funding terrorism in Nigeria.

Personally I don't trust the Qataris. They have so much money but some of their influential men are religious extremists waiting for the world to burn.

beerfraud:
and all these in a foreign land?
Can he try such in South Africa?

What exactly are you trying to say?

I am always condemning those dealing drugs in India, but on this one, I will support this Igbo man. The story sounds fishy, cos we all know one man cannot beat 4 armed police men, so this shows they were probably trying to bully the man.

As long as they didn't find drugs on him, I am happy. The police cannot just barge into someone's home without evidence, it's not proper.

Usmanovic95:
Kano pillars feel more at home when they come to ibadan. Try to visit the stadium anytime Kano pillars are in town, you will understand my point. You will see more hausas in the 🏟️ than yoruba. But I don't pray for violence to erupt to settle scores.

"They feel more at home" LOL

Anyways, I won't engage you further cos I no know wetin you dey try prove.

LOL you dated a manipulator.

Na this kind thing dey make some men no dey ever dey emotional with women, dem don show dem shege! 😂

Usmanovic95:
Funny part is 3Sc can't revenge when they come to ibadan. Adamasingba is close to Sabo.Kano pillar will even have more supporters than 3Sc the home team.But Kano pillar deserve bigger punishment Tbh.

LOL pray they don't experience the wrath of Ibadan boys. Which sabo? How many are they? 😂

I really pity the innocent Kano Pillars players and I pray it doesn't happen in Ibadan cos it won't be funny. When it comes to violence I fear Ibadan and Ife boys. But that won't happen IJN, cos violence is never the solution.

The sanctions are the perfect solution, in order to prevent retaliation.

Obavoh:
The Rules and Regulations in this house is too much.

1. We must call the Landlord and Landlady Daddy&Mummy.

2. Wake up by 5.30AM for Compound Devotion.

3. Each room will take turn to sweep compound and wash toilet/bathroom. You must clean and sweep morning, afternoon and evening.

4. We must not fry palm oil inside kitchen because Daddy Landlord’s wife has asthma. Even if mummy Landlady is not in the compound, don’t fry palm oil !

5. We are not allowed to cook with gas, only kerosene or charcoal.

6. Daddy Landlord will use his special padlock to lock the gate by 9.00PM. God help you if you’re not inside the house by that time, you will knock and Landlord family will not open. No Tenant has spare key.

7. I am sharing the room with my wife and 7 children. I cannot be romantic to my wife in the room so my wife and I started bathing together early in the morning.
Daddy Landlord called compound meeting to harass my wife and I because of this.

8. No playing of worldly music in the compound. No loud sound at all. Your television set volume should be very low. My children cannot laugh or play in the compound.

My biggest regret is that I paid 1½ Year rent because I was desperate to rent a house for my family and no Landlord wanted to accommodate a family of 9. We still have 8 months until the rent expires.

I am currently working in another town but my wife is always complaining about Daddy&Mummy Landlord. My children are not happy in that house. If not for bandits, I would have moved them back to the village.

Just relocate... House no dey Nairaland o. 🙄

JASONjnr:
But again, why are we stressing on this when clearly we know that Kogi state is in the North Central of Nigeria....

The tribe doesn't matter but the region is what we care about, constitutionally.

Also, Congratulations to Prof. Amupitan.

In fact, historically, the South West has never produced an INEC chairman, but all other regions have. Yorubas have been too marginalized in political appointments in Nigeria.

See the list of INEC chairmen from 1960 till date and I couldn't find a single South Westerner among them.

The fact is that INEC is yet to produce a South Westerner as INEC chairman. Yet Yorubas never protested for once. South East, South South and the North have been the ones ruling INEC, even Amupitan is a Northerner!

This topic has been created several times and made its way to the front page. A simple search on google would have shown you several topics on this.

NOUN is a federal university and the largest ODL institution in Africa. Of course, as a federal university, it is fully accredited by the NUC and most PG students prefer NOUN because of their vast programmes and the flexibility.

AustineE1:
In UK she can still seat for the law exams that will qualify her as a solicitor of Wales and England but she needs to read very well and cover the hell of voluminous law books. In UK,many Nigeria lawyers seat and pass the exams.

I literally just wrote the same thing bro... I guess it's the initial "I need to hustle" mentality that makes people do whatever kind of job that comes their way.

Although I understand that so many people need money to sustain themselves in the meantime, but hopefully she can make the right transition.

Hope she knows she can actually practice law in the UK if she is ready to go through the necessary steps...

Ghostagain:
I need to give up talking to you, you're too daft.

Naah, you just lack a thinking faculty.

Ghostagain:
I brought documents written and drawn by eyewitnesses, you brought stories invented by your fellow yoruba.

This is the problem when it comes to discussing history with you guys, we bring evidence you say "rubbish" and procede to tell unsubstantiated stories in replacement of hard evidence.

It is weird that you are the one claiming I am doing "story story" while you are literally the one bringing unsubstantiated stories to counter the hard evidence which I brought. Now that is laughable.

By the way, the indigenes of Lagos have already spoken through their monarchs and have recognized their origins as Benin empire. You just never listen when the speech doesn't go your way.

So there is hard evidence and the words of the indigenes which all point to Benin.

But no, no, no, you must counter everything with your science fiction of a mythical yoruba past.

You tremble in the face of facts. Even the Bini King cannot claim that Lagos was an empty land when they came to Lagos...

Maybe you should go back to school.
