Seven wise men....well done Sir.
How is Auckland, that is if you are still there?
I won't be surprised if you tell me you are in Antarctica shocked
Lol.

My next stop is Malaysia and Singapore, but we are praying that God should bless us more so we can be able to afford it.

Xhale:
Hello House Members,

I'm new on Nairaland but got to know about this platform in July following the response I got from the VAC-SA that my passport was ready for collection 2 days after submission. It was in my worry that some1 sent me this link where I read through the message trails and confirmed that passport verification within days is a norm.

On that note, I say kudos to all those who spare their invaluable time to share vital information on this platform. Indeed, the details clear doubts and give answers to many questions.��

My story is actually long and rigorous but in summary, I submitted my student (PhD) visa application on 28/06, had my 45min. telephone interview at 9.15pm NGT 24/7/2019 = 8.15 NZT 25/7/2019 and to the glory of God, I received my "Approval in Principle" on 24/09 and got the visa on 03/10.

Generally, I would like to encourage all who submitted student visa application to be patient and ensure they respond to their case officers explicitly and on timely note even during the telephone interview.

My special appreciation goes to femijck, ugsams, davodyguy and a pal "bucade11" for their unalloyed support & responses to all prospective NZ migrants..����


Shalom!
I guess congratulations are in order.

I will you all the best.

Contact Femi when you get to New Zealand. I know there can be stupid people on Social media who should be avoided, yet there are some others that are good people.

I met Femi here and we eventually connected in New Zealand. I can tell you, he's a nice guy.

He actually picked us up in Auckland and took us to places where we shopped in his car at his own cost.

I recommend him as a true friend and brother.

Are you going to Auckland or another city?

The OP's submissions are valid and it was a decision that bore all semblance of correctness.
Coastal (easy to be subject to attack),
Infrastructural expansion deficit, and
Dominance of a particular major ethnic group, having just come out from a civil war.
The exact reasons why Brazil moved from Rio de Janeiro to Brasilia.

Moreover, they wanted a central rallying point for the country, hence Abuja.

The man who headed the panel that decided it was Abuja wasn't a Northerner...he is Yoruba, Justice Akinola Aguda.

The panel concluded its work and submitted to the then Head of State, Gen. Murtala Muhammed who announced it 7 days before his assassination.

PS:
The capital moved to Abuja from Lagos on the 12th of December 1991 and not in 1993.


PANEL COMMITTEE MEMBERS WHO DECIDED IT WAS ABUJA
Hon. Justice T. Akinola Aguda, Chairman
Dr. Tai Solarin, Member
Col. Monsignor Pedro Martins, Member
Alhaji Muhammad Musa Isma, Member
Chief Owen Feibai, Member
Dr. Ajato Gandonu, Member
Professor, O. K. Ogan, Member
They're referred to as Aguda Panel

But you insulted mercy na. Calling her silicone ass and all.what are you now saying, forming all decent. Abegi! You talk from both sides of your mouth.
You're an attention seeker and my rule is that I don't feed internet trolls.

Each time you quote me, I ignore you as if you don't exist. I'm responding now because of your lies. I never at anywhere on this thread or anywhere on social media called Mercy silicone ass, I'm not one of those that use vulgar words.

You'll do yourself a lot of good if you can provide empirical proof of where my handle ever used words like 'silicone ass'. But if you failed to show it, it will reconfirm you as a troll and an attention seeker.

If you quote and I don't respond, I'm treating you as non existent to me

Good morning Mr.David.
How's your family and friends.

You seem to be a jolly good fellow...cheers.
Good morning Hotworta1.

Thanks for caring and we're doing very well.

Trust you are too.

As regards being 'good fellow' not entirely correct, but we must strive for excellence daily.

There's a song for children in the popular hymn book SOP (Songs of Praise) title is God whose name is love

Verse 2 says:
Help us to be good,
Always kind and true,
In the games we play
Or the work we do.

If we can abide by the teachings of this song, there wouldn't be negative energy everywhere.

Amya i came across your tweet, this Jamaican really did you strong thing o? Hope you threw in some votes for him, as "ike my guys" bes fren, dont tell me you are a sore loser tongue cheesy
I'm wondering why people are taking everything about this show with so much negative energy, so much hate, people insulting each other on Social Media, people insulting house mates etc. But why?

Mercy will probably win, she's not my favorite, I'm wondering why I would insult Mercy because she'll win ahead of Seyi.

People should realize that there's life after big brother.

Roger Federer lost Wimbledon Open final in July to Novak Djokovic. I was pained and felt bad for him, until Roger himself said it's a game and if his records are broken by either Nadal or Djokovic, it would show how Tennis is developing, after same Roger broke Pete Sampras' record as well.

I think it's only people that live miserable lives outside here and in the real world that would be filled with so much negative energy.

25 of these 30 players?

the total number is 25 not 30

but i can name more than 15 players there sha
They all played at Euro 2000 over 19 years ago in that great competition co hosted by Holland and Belgium. That's still the best Euro cup, followed by Euro 96, hosted by England. I enjoyed Euro 1992 as well which Germany lost in the final to Denmark. Denmark didn't qualify originally o, but were brought in to replace Yugoslavia due to the civil war in that country

France won Euro 2000
Germany Euro 96

I know say hn go hard for anyone to name all 25 grin

You can get the Social visa without even going to Abuja but that was THEN. undecided

Go Abuja with your family if you need legit visa. All these agent wey dey Lagos or other states go just do fake visa stamp for you bro. If u no want make dem detain u when u want to enter Malaysia.

Remember you can only use social visa to stay for 2weeks.
Thanks bro.

Called the embassy and was told that I need to come over to Abuja, but not to the embassy directly but through VFS global.

All applicants must visit the VFS to apply in person, but after Visa grant, our passports can be shipped back to us.

I intend getting Singapore visa as well to visit from Kuala Lumpur due to proximity

#ThreadPrediction.
Threads talking about politics, travels, education, Health etc hardly ever cross 3000 pages, but BBNaija thread has broken record.

It is well with the soul of Nigeria


I created this thread sometime in 2015 when I traveled to Tokyo, Japan sharing some info to those aspiring to visit Japan, especially those tired of Nigeria

https://www.nairaland.com/2655545/japanese-visa-travelling-japan

Here's the New Zealand thread with lots of tips about that country, especially my experience visiting about 3 weeks ago.
