Greetings boss. Please I'll be applying for an MSc program in Canada very soon and the agents over here claim that anything short of 2.1 CGPA can't get you an admission. They advice programs like PGDs and stuff. Can you help me with any relevant info? Thanks.

Kebaba:
There will be lots of approval this coming week

Bruh, I've been approved so what's next?

felix55:
this payday, I have registered but can't verify my account ..do u know y

At first I used my NIN slip and waited for days, only to realize I didn't initiate the process. So, use a recognized means of identification and it shouldn't take long to get verified. What means have you been using?

crackhouse:
Once u choose your item and want to make,payment it will sum up the phone price and the shipping price. U will see the cost of shipping there

Yes, I know bruh. I've bought a couple of items on the site but not this huge. Based on the reviews I've read on the site, people often have to pay import duties when it arrived their country. So that's why I'm asking to know how much it cost in Nigeria. And it's somewhat surprising because the phone in question is twice the price in Nigerian stores.

Umueme:
As someone using Aliexpress for 7 years plus now, it's relatably safe. Your item has a 90% probability of not arriving if you use free shipping (like cainao shipping.......) that arrives in two months plus. Use Aliexpress shipping, it'll arrive (through speedaf).

The custom fees are paid together during purchase. But in some rare cases (very rare) you'd pay at the post office (if they sent it to post office) I've paid maximum of 1k at post office so it's not bad.

At the OP, I bought an item of 300+ USD and didn't pay a dime for customs. But if you're skeptical, tell the vendor to label it as gift. Ndewo

Woah. Thanks, I really appreciate man. But when I went through the reviews of other persons who purchased the product, they claim to have paid import duties and none paid less than $100. When did you buy yours?

How did you pay for it? What card did guy use?

Get a virtual card. I use PayDay but you can also use Chipper cash.

Hello Fonelanders. So I want to purchase a phone from AliExpress and I need to know how much custom charges for import duties. Mind you, the phone is within the range of $150-$180.

ote author=onlinetrader post=117149740]Yes..I am so sorry for not giving you guys update. Received the phone just few weeks later but been engaged with so many things[/quote]That's great. How much did you pay as Custom duty? I want to get a phone via AliExpress and I'm pretty confused on the charge.

Collins4u1:
This item is on its way to your post office... Same happened when I bought pocofone f3... It will come

Hey man, I want to buy a Poco phone from AliExpress worth $180 and I need to know the cost of the custom duty. How much did you pay when you purchased yours? Thanks.

As an ex-CLO, it's easy. Collect a rejection letter from your current PPA, then go to the new PPA you want to change to and ask them to give you a letter of acceptance. Now take all these to your local government and they should change it. Most times, they'll want to keep asking you to come back the next day or the day after the next. But it isn't really stressful though.


NYSC is shít in my opinion. Changing of PPA is not even important. If I was in your shoe, I'll ask for rejection letter from this current PPA, keep it with me and make a stamp that looks exactly like the PPA's own. Then proceed to make a letter headed document which looks exactly like their own. Now I am my own PPA and my own boss. I sign at month end and whenever is necessary. My PPA think I've changed PPA and NYSC thinks I'm still in my PPA but I'm my boss. Hahaha... I gave people this info that year for cool cash oh. [/quote]Bruh, omo this info legit o. Abeg fill me in properly I no really understand I really need to change PPA, infact I no wan work for person. More like my own boss.

Hello Nairalanders, I got a Tecno Spark 9T less than a week ago and I don't want to regret just yet. Its in good shape but as it stands, Whatsapp is the only application I can use. I can't even access other websites on various browsers like Chrome and Firefox except Google. For example I can only search stuffs on Google but if I click any of the threads it never goes. I can't even browse any website at allll. I'm even using another gadget to access Nairaland and its so annoying that my business is on hold. What could be wrong?

Ennyholar:
1. Post all your Tecno phones related problems here, instead of creating multiple threads.

2. Feedback on their devices

3. Suggestions on enhancing their devices.

I'll be pleased to assist you conveying it directly to them.

Let the conversation begin.

Hello Nairalanders, please i need to send a package to the Uk from Nigeria and i need to know if anyone has any useful info on a very affordable courier service to use or how to go about it. The services to engage, the cost, duration of shipping etc. Basically anything i should know. By the way I've observed DhL, GIG and anothers and quite unfortunately their prices although based on the weight of the product (15kg max) seems to be almost twice of the cost.
Please if you have any relevant info on how to go about it do let me know its kinda urgent.Thanks.

I don't support violence on any tribe whatsoever but this stupidity of a governor has to be called to order. His state is in a mess but he chose to pleas his northern musketeers. Thorns of igbos have been killed up north and the govt didn't have 2 bleeps to give.

It will be difficult to get a core i3 for 60k unless you get it from an end user who want to sell.

For what you should look out for, check the screen, close and open it to make sure it is not flickering,no White dots on the screen and also confirm the charging,make sure it increases then unplug the charger and play movie or song for some minutes to see how fast the battery drops.

If it comes with a DVD drive,put DVD plate and see how fast it is detected.
Confirm all USB ports are charging and seeing the phone files.

Check wireless connection, check sounds to make sure speakers are working fine and not burst.
Confirm all keyboard keys,if it comes with a webcam, confirm the camera.

Test for like 30mins before paying (play movies)
If anything is wrong,it's likely it will shutdown in 30mins.

Many thanks boss. If I'm basically browsing and nothing too serious, will i be having any form of issues using a dual core? And what's the difference between using a windows 7 and 10, any restrictions?

Hello landers, please I'm getting a system for the first time and i don't intend using it for something tedious. What brand will you recommend for me? Preferably 4-6Gb Ram, i3 core or dual with a long lasting battery and not less than 250Gb Rom with a budget of 50-60k??

What else should i look out for

Johnne32:
I often see new writers ask this specific question over and over again. Starting out as a writer and determining your rates can be difficult because you don't want to undersell yourself or chase the client away.

I'll address this issue in this instructive post. It's gonna be an opinionated piece so feel free to disagree

Note: These rates all depend on the clients. You'll get more from an established company than a random blogger.

Now let's look at it from the Naira and Dollar perspective. That's basically because a lot of Nigerian writers now earn in dollars. I'll tell you how later. Just read on.

Nigerian Rates:

Now, as a Nigerian writer, whether you are into copywriting, SEO writing, technical writing or even content writing, there are certain rates you should avoid. N1 per word is a very valid example. That's because it's a very poor rate. Even if you are given 2000 words to write daily, N2000 is more like a labourer's work because you are working so hard for a little pay.

So what should you charge? Here are some ideas:

Beginner = N2.5 - N3.9 per 1000-word

This rate could be for those who wants to delve into freelance writing. The aim is to get more useful experience as a newbie while working on new projects.

Intermediate - N4.0 - N9.9 per 1000-word

A lot of writers fall within this category as this range is the most accepted in Nigeria. While it can't be compared to the international market, writers who feel like they're more than newbies could start with this rate.

Advanced- N10.0 - N50.0 per 1000-word

A few Nigerian writers earn this way. Usually rates like this are gotten from outsourced jobs from foreign clients. Magazines, top publications &/conpanies also pay this rate although they're quite rare.


Dollar Rates:

If you are looking forward to earn in dollars, you should understand that this can be a difficult journey but one that's very rewarding. A lot of companies from countries like the U.S, U.K, Australia, Canada, Spain, Dubai e.t.c need freelance content writers and copywriters so if they check and find you worthy for the gig, that could be some cool cash.

When charging in dollars, $10 per 1000 words should be your bare minimum cos this includes the charge to withdraw the money to your local bank account. You may find lower gigs which you may be forced to take to get more experience and reviews but your minimum should be $10. International clients pay well, some pay as high as $1000 for the same article but this is not as easy as it looks.

Beginner - $10 - $40 per 1000-words
Intermediate- $50 - $100 per 1000-words
Advanced - $100 - $2000 per1000-words.


Want to earn well in dollars, here are a few tips:
1. Niche down. Don't just go by the title "SEO writer" or "Content Writer" because that's generalised. Niches like B2B Tech SaaS, CyberSecurity, Whitepapers, Grant proposals, IoT, AR/VR, Metaverse, Crypto, Blockchain, Web3, Biotech pay mad money.

2. Be active on LinkedIn. That platform is a gold mine for getting freelance gigs from foreign clients.

3. Show up. Let people see your stuff and look at you as an authority in your field. That'll surely set you apart.

P.S - Just in case you are wondering, As a freelance B2B tech writer, I charge $200 -$250 (80-100k) per 1000-words. It's that lucrative.

P.S.S - This is not some bragging or a slicky ad. I just thought to share this so that you don't undersell yourself as a writer.

Feel free to like and share (with credits). Let me know if this writeup helped.


T for thanks.

Yes this helped a whole lot and I'm glad i stumbled onto this post.. Although I'm less than a few weeks old as a writer and true to your words Nigerian clients pay way lesser. Can i get across to you probably on WhatsApp? I'd love to learn one or two from you and possibly be under your tutelage.

Although i don't support tinubu but aregbe is biting more than he can chew. He's fighting both his benefactor and beneficiary and as a result lost his stronghold in alimosho Lagos. He may probably be given the obaseki treatment and resort to working with PDP secretly because that's the norm in our political sphere irrespective of party interest.

Aregbesola after the election...

So this babaringa stuffing mo'sucker is now in charge of the party's structure?? Things just got effed up!
