Oba of Benin is going on a Thank You tour for what? Is it to thank the people that voted or campaigned for him? I thought Oba of Benin does not leave his palace. Has the change mantra caught up with him?

ibitzbarlow:
You need to read the memo again, so that you understand it better. That memo to the presidency chronicles the HOS' handling/ involvement in Maina's re-instatement. It is not about the date of the memo or the memo but that " she sought audience with Mr President on the 11th of October and advised him against Maina's re-instatement". This means that Mr President was aware of Maina's re-instatement and didnt act until there was a public outcry.

Any defence again?
No

First, you should attached the school payment receipt with your new application. You mean you paid that amount to the school and you never got any receipt of payment?

In your introductory letter state why you were denied and that you already made payment to the school attaching the receipt or any proof of payment you have. Also on your new bank statement explains why the huge 1m deposit, they may see it fishy.

I applied for study visa on the 9th of October but I have been denied when I picked up my passport today. Reasons being: 1. Insufficient funds 2. Transactions on attached bank statement lack credibility.

According to them, I can reapply within 10 days. I had less than N1m but I have a N1m that was credited yesterday. I used my salary account, almost all the transactions are from my office except for two or so transactions.

I want to reapply. What should I do to increase my chances of being given a visa?

I paid about R58,000 to the school. I want to get a statement or letter from the school indicating this. I don't know if it will help.

A body has been found in the search for a pilot who fell out of a military helicopter during an air show in eastern Belgium, Belgian media report.

Police discovered the body close to a valley at Amay near Liège.

Three troops had jumped with parachutes from the Agusta A-109 helicopter, but the pilot did not have a parachute.

Forensic experts have been sent to the site, a wooded area near the town of Huy. Investigators are believed to be examining suicide as a possible motive.

According to reports, the co-pilot helped the three parachutists jump, but then turned to see the pilot's seat empty and his door wide open.

He then grabbed the controls and landed the helicopter safely.

The search for the pilot, who fell several hundred metres in the incident on Sunday, was resumed on Monday after police and troops were forced to abandon their efforts at nightfall.

The reason for the pilot's fall remains a mystery.

The sliding door alongside the pilot seat had been opened and the radio connection between the pilot and other crew members had been cut, Belgium's Nieuwsblad reports.

Police are investigating the incident.

Travel › The Rejected Flight Attendant Who Started Her Own Airline by despam(op): 9:48pm On Jun 26, 2017
https://i1.wp.com/www.ofonimeessien.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/sibongile_sambo_founder_srs_aviation_africa.jpg?w=600
Sibongile Sambo, Founder, SRS Aviation Africa

When Sibongile Sambo, a 42-year old woman from South Africa, was told by South African Airways that she did not qualify for a flight attendant position because she did not meet their minimum height requirement, she decided to take matters into her own hands.

She became an entrepreneur, and started her very own airline called SRS Aviation, and until this day, her company is the only Black woman-owned and operated aviation company in Africa.

So, how did she do it?

Starting an airline is not an easy or cheap thing to do, but despite this, she was still able to get it off the ground.

First, she formed her company and gave it the name of SRS Aviation. Then, she bid and won a contract for cargo transport issued by the South African government and formed a partnership with MCC Aviation – a South African-based fixed & rotor wing charter operator.

Finally, she sold her car and cashed out her mother’s pension to help her obtain an Air Operating Certificate from the South African Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). It wasn’t an easy process, but she was able to raise the needed capital and make it work!

Now, Sambo’s company offers their clients professional and personalized flight options to destinations in Africa and around the world. Their services include VIP charters, tourist charters, cargo charters, game count & capture, and helicopter services. Her customers pay anywhere from $1,000 USD to $200,000 USD per flight.

Her vision

Sambo’s vision is to be the number one choice in affordable air service solutions for individuals and businesses, locally and worldwide, by providing an unparalleled air service. She also aims to uphold the highest safety standards.

When it comes to giving back to her local community, she is also very passionate about helping young people by sharing her knowledge and expertise. During a recent interview with CNN, she commented, “I’m where I am today because somebody invested in me. It’s my opportunity now to invest in other people.”

No. It is wrong. I sincerely don't know what the matter with RCCG. I had serious issue with them when I wanted to get married in their church. They told my wife that she must be baptized again with them if the wedding must take place in their church.

I stood my ground that she won't be baptized again since the first one was by water immersion. I threatened taking the wedding away from their church. As a result, they backed down.

I wish I can say it was easy. I shared my experience here: https://www.nairaland.com/2966852/how-became-helicopter-pilot

There is no government agency that readily give scholarship for aviation training. Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) sponsored some pilots sometimes ago. I tried it but I didn't succeed. You can approach them and see. You can try NDDC. Check your State scholarship. Some states sponsor some pilots from time to time, you could be lucky.

Thanks for the inspiring story.

I want to ask; can one be a pilot by joining the Airforce?

And secondly, if it is possible to be a pilot by joining the Airforce, are the financial challenges better or worse compared to going to an Aviation school?

Thank you
Yes, you can be a pilot by joining the Air Force. There is no financial implication because Air Force pays for all your training. The issue will be you being qualified to be taken as a Pilot either from the Academy or DSS.
Travel › Pilot Refuses To Fly Due To An ISIS Related Wifi Name by despam(op): 3:26pm On May 25, 2017
https://i1.wp.com/www.ofonimeessien.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Pilot-Refuses-To-Fly-Plane-Because-Of-Passengers-Personal-WiFi-Name.jpg?resize=768%2C430

A pilot refused to fly a plane after a tourist spotted someone's shocking WiFi name.

The incident took place as passengers were preparing to take-off from Cancun, Mexico, to the UK on a Thomson flight. As one male tourist boarded, he noticed that someone had named their WiFi: 'Jihadist Cell London 1'. This came just hours after the Manchester Arena attack.
He informed the cabin crew immediately, and they began a probe. No one admitted to the name, so the police were called.

The plane was delayed for two hours while police inspected the passengers' electronics. Sniffer dogs and armed police boarded the aircraft in an attempt to find the person behind the WiFi name and to check for any suspicious items.

According to the Sun, some passengers began crying and demanded to be removed from the plane.

The man who raised the alarm told The Sun: "As I sat in my seat, I noticed one of the options for WiFi connection on my phone relating to being a jihadist. I accosted a member of cabin crew, who took my phone up to the cockpit.

"I was moved to the front of the plane but by this time whispers were spreading through the plane about it."
Initially, the pilot told passengers that the plane would be delayed by 40 minutes as a result of 'lax ground staff' but then admitted the real reason behind the issue.

"Soon the pilot confessed what the problem was and people were very uneasy. There were a lot of women in tears because of what we knew had happened earlier in Manchester," the passenger explained.

"The Mexican security services were brought on to investigate but by then the WiFi hotspot name had been deleted. It took an hour to check devices and there was no food or water for passengers.

"Outside the plane we could see sniffer dogs and armed police circling the aircraft. It was scary.
"No-one coughed up to being the culprit and security couldn't identify who was to blame, so there is a great sense of unease. It was terrifying coming on the same day as the horrifying Manchester attacks."

No one admitted to being behind the WiFi name, despite several pleas from the pilot.

The pilot said: "Someone has something on their phone which had an extremely subversive title to it - Jihadists Cell London 1 - and obviously we have to take this kind of thing very, very seriously.

"Someone has managed to do this on a hot point and it is a security issue and I'm sure you'll understand I'm not prepared to depart with something like this on the aircraft.

"The first thing I'm going to say is that if someone on this plane has that on their phone for a laugh, it would be very advantageous to you to come forward and talk to one of the cabin crew and you could save yourself a lot of time.
"Whatever, this is utterly unacceptable. Our security people are looking into this."

Security officials couldn't find the person behind the WiFi name. As a result, the flight was cancelled and all the passengers were sent to a hotel overnight.
