PoliticsRe: Absence Of Evidence Stalls Kabiru Sokoto's Trial by DisGuy: 5:19pm On Mar 20, 2013
Maxymilliano: This piece of news is incorrect, it was the absence of judge that stalls the trial, not absence of evidence!

http://saharareporters.com/news-page/photonews-boko-haram-leader-kabiru-sokoto-court


A top Boko Haram operative Kabiru Sokoto was brought to court for formal arraignment today by the State Security Service (SSS). However, the absence of the judge at the Federal High Court Abuja stalled the arraignment. Mr. Sokoto is expected back in court on April 19 2013.

peteafrik88: I dont agree with you on that... I stay in an accommodation about 10 mins walk from school in Portsmouth and dont pay for transport. And for Uni of Portsmouth students, you are entitled to free bus transport from strategic places or bus stops on the school owned buses. That is one of the reasons I love this school to the last. Concerning proirity, I think its on the individual and not living with with other people. Its one's chioce here to do what you want.
Thats totally cool, your experience with Portsmouth like many other universities up and down the country could be similar but then again there are hundreds of other universities with different arrangements or town set up, overall the advice is to plan/arrive early to get better options MOST especially undergraduates- settling into a new country/town aint easy

TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 2 by DisGuy(mod):
tuty: Hi all I'm new to this forum, I'm from Tanzania I'm living in Uk with a settlement visa with my husband.

I applied a settlement visa for my two kids last year december and got refused on 31 jan, submitted an appeal on 4th february and got a latter from the tribunal court saying will contact me after 4 july.

I'm don't know what to do as my son he will be 18 within 2 weeks and my daughter is 12.Please help with any advise or if there's any chance at all for my kids getting visa.

Cheers.
I think they will note the fact that your son was under 18 and still dependent on you when the application was initially submitted

ochukoccna: No need to be a money miss road especially in the UK clamping down on immigration
Going by your input, 350 quid a month points to 4200 quid a year, ain't that steep for decent budget housing?
Though I believe price bands will have more of a regional rather than a national connotation e.g. London area housing will be much more expensive than the North East housing
As I said earlier, thanks
The 350+/- i wrote is annual, i'm basically saying the difference per year in most cases is around that figure,

on a general note: I think where ever possible UNDERGRADUATE student especially international student should look towards university accommodations in their first year - my opinion

TravelRe: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by DisGuy(mod): 2:47pm On Mar 10, 2013
justwise: You get that with private rented accommodation as well and many of them are just walkable distance from the university, many private accommodations are shared with other foreign students so you don't really miss out in social life.

University like Portsmouth has free bus ride for students, so no matter how far you live the university pick and drop you 7days a week.
True but there are some universities or towns without proper accommodations, in cities in London and Manchester the closer to the uni the more expensive these private accommodations are. To some international students 30minutes advertised in the brochure or online in actual fact is double that, all in a bid to get cheaper rates jump at these until the reality sets in; with poor transport links, lonely dark streets, cold snobbish neighbours etc


Its very important international students arrive early to view the rooms they are paying for, view more than one option and not be rushed to make decisions
TravelRe: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by DisGuy(mod): 2:36pm On Mar 10, 2013
adaobi123: good point. im not sure this applies for international student, after the first year do you have to move out and find your own accommodation ?
I dont know about all school but there are some that allow you to apply for accommodation again while some you make a case for staying put whilst some refuse outrightly as they would expect you to have enough knowledge of the city/town hence consideration is given to first year and international students
TravelRe: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by DisGuy(mod): 1:06pm On Mar 10, 2013
University accommodation is safe, usually furnished and inclusive!

theres are some cost students dont calculate when looking for accommodation like transport to and from lectures
You are more likely to get the 'Student experience' living in university accommodation than living off; personally
i feel many international student get carried away easily when living in privately rented flats as they are more likely to be
living with other immigrants who are working and tend to get sucked in, making that (earning an income) their main priority

You get involved more with university life, your rooms cleaned once a week, you get repairs done by the management, no need
to be chasing after some dodgy landlord who'll ask for more money, you might even get under floor heating!!
