I submitted all documents even paid for 3 to 4 tourist tour itinerary in Paris with £7,800 bank statement with my employment letter.

Please what can or could be wrong please??

They believe you want to Japa from UK to France, simple

And this made front page news?

It's a sponsored post

Once you see Abuja news or press, just know it's Alex Reporters (Alex Nwankwo) promoting unknown people as usual via sponsored post on Nairaland

It’s not about “feeling too important when flying our own.” The fact is Airpeace is a truly terrible airline, and no amount of patriotism, whether fake or genuine, should make anybody buy their services. We hear horror stories upon horror stories about how they conduct themselves and their business. It’s beyond despicable, and we should not give them even a modicum of grace. They need to do better.

Same thing with GIGL. I mean, it’s good that some people are now saying they are receiving their passports within 24 hours, but this is not the testimony of most people. This has been the biggest downgrade since switching from TLS to VFS. How can you pay much more money for even worse service? Terrible!

Local businesses should earn the trust and patronage of customers by providing quality services that at the very least rival foreign competitors, if not better. They cannot charge exorbitant prices, provide horrible services, and expect us to close our eyes and give them our money simply because they are Nigerians. That’s not patriotism. It’s insanity.

God bless you for this

I dont understand why we love sentiment in Nigeria

The two Boeing 777-300 and 777-200 they are using on London trip were previously used by Singapore Airlines and Emirates respectively. Both are over 21 years old.

Yes, both planes and damn old, reason the seats are terrible, screens are not working and still use remote control/not touch screen

Emirates retired the 777-200 in year 2015. They don't need it, but leased it to a Nigerian company
Singapore Airlines retired the 777-300 in year 2017 or thereabout. They don't need it, but leased it to a Nigerian company

Boeing 777-300 1 21.3 Years (9V-SYK Boeing 777-300 Singapore Airlines Mar 2005)
Boeing 777-200 1 26.4 Years (A6-EMK Boeing 777-200 Emirates Oct 1998)

Someone posted above that he had to use Qatar Airways, funny enough, Qatar is even cheaper than Air Peace and you might have the opportunity to board the almighty A380 from Doha to LHR. The only difference is that Qatar does not fly directly.

How can GIG Logistics be charging N41,000 for local delivery? This is too much

EmirOfBodija:
Hello Everyone,

Really appreciate the valuable information and support offered by everyone on this platform. My mum got her visit visa approved (initially refused) after 3-4 months of PAP to the home office.

The date indicated for her travel in the application has already passed and she now has a new validity period. I want to ask if it’s possible to book a return trip for say 4 & half months within the 6 months period so far it’s still within the validity period. This trip is going to be fully sponsored.

I’m only worried of the type of questions they’ll be asking her at the border because it’s her first time. Also, from those with previous experiences, what other documents should she have with her?

Thanks

To add to the advice given to you above, considering that it would be expensive to modify ticket l, I'll suggest you can do two months original return ticket and have a reservation for same entry date, but with about 30 days return.

If she's asked how long she would be staying (I believe they'll ask) she can say 30 days.

If they ask for ticket, that reservation which is almost 100% appearance with a normal ticket via mail to show one month can be presented.

Not sure they can contact airline at PoE to verify anything.

Good luck

I learnt it replaces biometric residence permit (BRP). What I wanted to know is if Nigerians traveling to UK are mandated to have it before departure.

If you're on a visitor visa, not sure you need this.

I travelled with my Nigerian PP on visit visa, I didn't get one

Nairae:
1. My Person in Nigeria is having issue accessing UK VI account to access e visa, apart from calling them from Nigeria, is there an email we can use to contact them?

2. Second question, can the e visa be processed when you arrive UK ?

3. For those who called from Nigeria to resolve issues, what is the extimated minutes before the call officers pick?

Which E visa are you talking about?

Lontorlooka:
They are using GIGL which is locally owned. This must be appreciated and encouraged over a foreign firm.

Sentiment is one of the wrongs we do to ourselves.

Imagine sitting in Air Peace and my seat doesn't have a charging point or my screen isn't working, after lots of reviews confirmed this and Air Peace has refused to change, but feeling too big, I should continue to patronise them since I want to promote local organisation?

If any importer is willing to sell PMS to me at ₦800/litre and Dangote sells at ₦860, I would save ₦60 by buying from that importer.

If I can't get value for money, what's the essence of patronage?

What VFS is doing is even more evil than good in terms of outrageous pricing of services.

GIGL being a local company should even be cheaper than foreign courier firm to be factual

It's was GAC under the leadership of Tinubu that removed Ambode

Mrincredible001:
So Anthony Joshua's heavy

Some of you said it was because Joshua bowed to greet Buhari that he lost.

So now, say the same thing about this guy.

I can guess where you're from

JuanDeDios:
Trump gave all the support to Ukraine in his first term? And Zelensky should have waited days to congratulate the election winner after the declaration of results?

Which Support did Trump give Zelensky that the ninu is talking about?

Even Macron who worked well with Boden, can congratulated Trump.

It's just a normal thing for winners to be congratulated.

We have many fools on this platform

Watched the video several times, looks staged

Oga óò

Tinubu playing with 🔥

bixton:
Can PO do that or who will support him when the time comes?

Unfortunately, nobody

udemzyudex:
Bro is seems you're on some sort of sh1t.

Was Pedro impeached when the house was on recess?

I asked you a question.

We're talking about due process here and due process is holistic.

Whether during recess or not, was his impeachment done lawfully?

udemzyudex:
Bro your analogy is flawed, it doesn't even correlate.

Nope, yours are flawed, as you avoided answering questions

The house was on recess and according to what is written above, only the speaker can reconvene the house.

Which house was on recess? And which law or constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria says it's only the Speaker that can reconvene the house? What happens when the speaker becomes indisposed?

All this INEC this, aggrieved party that doesn't make sense to Obasa, I'm not a fan of this man but according to him he said let due process be followed.

You can follow due process when the process that even lead to your removal was illegal to begin with it.

Was Peter Obi impeached by the house or not?

Was Femi Pedro deputy Governor of Lagos Impeached by the house or not?

If the answers to both questions above are yes, did their impeachment followed due process by the respective houses that carried out the impeachment?

moneyissweet:
The federal gunment say they cannot wait because they are the court and everything. So they can do whatever they like.

That's the scary part in all these.

If you lose election, don't wait for the court.

Just fight

icetyj37k:
Because they are following due process. This is a democracy, not a military regime.

When Peter Obi was impeached, did he vacate or run to FG to forcefully reinstate him?

udemzyudex:
What has that got to do with Obasa case?
Was it INEC that made him the speaker or was his certificate withdrawn from him?

I'll deal with you based on your own logic.

INEC is the body that certifies election, while house members are the ones that make someone a speaker.

Just like INEC can wrongly declare someone a winner and the court can err by declaring someone a winner. In those cases, what options does the aggrieved party have?

Use police to fight the court or INEC? Or still approach sane court to review the process of his impeachment?

Was Peter Obi impeached as Governor? And if he was impeached, did he vacate or went to FG to state that his impeachment didn't follow due process?

If you're genuinely reasonable, you would answer.

Was Femi Pedro impeached under the instruction of Bola Tinubu?

udemzyudex:
Read and read and stop acting like you have knowledge on the subject matter.
Two wrongs don't make a right.

Now that he is there, they can impeach him now legally.

Did INEC declare someone else as winner of Imo State election, before Hope Uzodinma?

bixton:
If stewpidity is not inherent in our DNA as a people then this article should not be in the open and in any forum !!!!!

That the FG did not have to wait for the Court to give a verdict on the matter that is before it because due process was not followed ......


This is one of those mumuish things we have to put up with.....


Does the FG understand the autonomy of the Lagos State Assembly ?

Let's assume all these is true, what will happen if the other members refused to attend plenary session under Obasa till the year comes to an end, will he Obasa declare their seats vacant?

I think when INEC declares someone a winner of election, APC is telling us that instead of the aggrieved party to go to court, the person should not wait for the court to recover stolen mandate.

Peter Obi, next time, don't go to court, just fight for your election

saintkel:
if they are following due process as u say, y not let d court decide d case before it

The person you're replying is a fool.

INEC declared Tinubu winner of 2023 elections. Peter Obi felt aggrieved and went to court, instead of fighting as Obasa is doing. The court said BAT is the winner as declared by INEC.

If Obasa was wrongly impeached, he went to court.

Why not wait for court?

It means if two people are fighting, FG would support one against the other right?

PulaPower:
Which UK..

Dey play

Stop putting mouth in what you don't know

What does she do for a living?

A lot would not understand this question but would ignorantly think it's from hate point of view.

In the UK, they'll question everything about your wealth through something called AML. Tell us how you got the £5m you want to use to buy a house

Globad:
What does Obasa mean again?

The King ran away or the King escaped?

This one here came with full force

Absolute madness

kingsceemark:
A Yoruba Muslim terrorist man, by their hatred comments you shall know them

You don't have sense.

If you're accused, and you re given opportunity to defend yourself in court, that's not biase

She committed a crime, leave sentiment.

This is not Nigeria that people would claim witch-hunt or ethnic colouration.

They brought her to the court, they her provide evidence that she's not guilty

Mumu man

Which election did they boycott?

Desperado midget

I hope APC don't cause trouble that will lead to cancelling the polls

They should do what happened in Rivers, how the LG election went peacefully
