Most of the Hotel receptionists speak good English. Since it is a tourist hotel, they know that various individuals worldwide would be coming to lodge in their hotel. You should be fine.

Cheers

Engr. David I know your discussion with her is looking somewhat personal.
Well, I am sorry if I am being an intruder. Please, what are your reasons for telling her to redeploy?

Good morning
Hey Kola,

No problem. Well, i redeployed. Ebonyi had little to offer me, so i took the higher ground. Notwithstanding, there were some corpers that maximized their stay but it just wasn't for me.

It all depends on want you want though. Let's say you apply for a job in Lagos and get called for a test, would you want to be travelling c.12hours ?

Good morning justwise ... I've been following your posts for over 2 years now. Wehdone sir.

I got admission in university of Wolverhampton (MSc). The School fees is £12700. Will it be ok if I pay £5000 before applying for visa? My school said minimum of £3000.
However, one agent told me I ought to pay half the fees or more else the embassy will deny me visa.


Please help. Thanks
Paying £3000 or £5000 is not part of the requirements to get a visa. Since your school asked that you should pay £3000, then pay £3000 and apply for your visa, making sure all the "Home Office required requirement" is provided
Investment › Re: Private Investment In Mining Sector Hits $2.32 Billion by davide470(m): 6:54pm On Oct 17, 2018
UjSizzle:
Increased private sector investment is a good thing as long as the government is regulating. We need to limit the impact of capitalism in this country as much as we can.
What about coal? Or has this been abandoned to reduce our carbon footprint in a country that isn't even producing the enough power?


Looking forward to a more diversified economy.
Even with the large quantity of coal we have in Nigeria, we are not among the Top 100 carbon polluting countries in the world, so we can actually do whatever we want with it..

Also, privatization is a good thing! Government in developed economies don't own energy utilities firms. They just regulate.

Contact UKBA to change the dates on your visa ASAP. You should have indicated your departure and return date on you visa so refer to it and ask them to change it.
Boss,

So UKVI got back and admitted their error but they said i should send my passport to their P.O.Box in Sheffield but as a Naija guy, i will go there myself.

Please do you or anyone know the specific address in Sheffield? All i have is a P.O.Box..

Thanks.

Lycamobile costs between 9p to 12p per minute for calls (depending on your plan) and 19p for SMS to Nigeria. On its £15 plan, Lycamobile also has free 100 minutes to international numbers (but this doesn't include Nigeria) + 6gb data. Calls/texts within the UK are unlimited.
Tesco mobile costs 6p per minute for calls and 0p for SMS to Nigeria (using their international call card or international call app). You can decide to get a line with them if you so wish.

PS: Regardless of what network you're on, you can always download the Tesco app, costs 6p for calls to Nigeria. For example, you can use a Lycamobile line and use the Tesco calling app for your calls to Naija. Just download it from the app or play store and top up as you want. £2.52 will give you 42 mins talk time and unlimited SMS to Naija.
Your Lycamobile number will be what shows up when you call any Naija number.
Mimilyrics for President! cheesy

Thank you for taking out time to respond to questions being asked here without being "sarcastic" atimes like the other Ogas. Lol.

Thank you for your response.
Just one advice! I am 99% sure your passport is at TLS office. It takes UKVI less than or about 24hours to dispatch your passport back to TLS after a decision has been made. If you wanna keep waiting for mail, that's not bad.. if not, go there and demand they check! Threaten to report to UKVI..

From experience..

If the passport has been returned back to TLS and they haven't sent a mail, at least they would update the person's application status on their website.
TLS can be a funny bunch. Call UKVI, if they said they have made a decision, then please go and make some noise in TLS office.

Have you received your visa? I am going to coventry. I went for visa interview on the 6th last week and i paid for priority, till now no mail and my course start 17th sept but my latest date is 24th october. I am worried,I thought they said priority only take 5 working days
Call UKVI and ask them. The visa would have been issued but TLS might not have sent a mail. The same thing happened to a friend, UKVI said they have made a decision since and her passport was returned back to TLS.

trophee:
This is simply far from the truth. I am a graduate of the same department. MEE 203 is engineering drawing course which in the first isn't a sitting examination course, you need to stand to make the best of your drawings. Besides, you can't compare this kind of examination with others, because you can't effectively copy engineering drawing if you don't understand the rudiments. The guy might just choose the position if that's what work for him at that moment.
Exactly! During my engineering drawing exam, i didn't even want a seat. We stood all through.. sitting when you are trying to use your 3rd eye to get all the elevations.. abeggi. Lol.

You could use www.spareroom.co.uk to search for accomodation or look for a cheap airbnb to stay for the 17th, do some room viewings same day when you arrive and move in.
