If the word "Travel Agent" is defined according to its true meaning, then, there would be nothing wrong in employing their services, and their services would be mainly to:
1) Help in suggesting Destinations or Holidays Resorts
2) Flight Reservation/Bookings
3) Hotel/Accommodation Booking
4) Activities Suggestions
5)Guides and advice regarding sites to see and
6) advice on the laws, and on the things that are the DOs and DON'Ts.

   But if a "Travel Agent" accords himself as a "Visa Agent", then, there should be no two ways about it, just RUN away for him as you would run away from a Pastor who introduces himself as a "Prophet"
   "Visa Agents" will only get you into a UK 10 years ban, or an American Live Ban, or the Schengen Indefinite Ban: Know that it is impossible for anyone to help in obtaining visa for anyone, there is no such connection as many Nigerians acclaim

Mind u, she joined a ship that adopted GEJ. I can remember seeing the election posters of her party members with GEJ pic on them all because of her. SE votes wouldn't have been eminent if not for her party. Her choice if wanting to be in the senate may be to have more INDEPENDENT WILL to act across board. I will also give it to her, and I think other Nigerian will do.

Get2go:
It's dumb to say she was bound to loose dat election characterised with controversies knowing dat another popular person ran de race with her. As far as I am concerned she has not been dented by whatsoever, and I am of de opinion many Nigerians still have faith in her.
I'd like to know wat would have been her position on issues like bombings, corrupt politicians and other matters the Senate have power to deal with in the nation today, if she'd been there?

Did Jeta Amata's Black Gold Make US Box Office?

Looking at Jeta Amata'a Black Gold that starred Billy Zane, Vivica Fox, Haekem Kae-Kazeem, Eric Roberts, Micael Madsen and Tom Sizemore, isn't that enough to make US box office? The film had 6 Hollywood actors and had some Hollywood production crew involved in it.

Can't such a film hit the states and be played in US cinemas? I keep wondering how much Black Gold was shot with? How would they make their money back?

However, if Black Gold didn't make US box office, what does it take to make a Nollywood movie make US box office as Mirror Boy made waves in the UK

Please I would love to get responses from informed Nairalanders.

Thank you.

when the cbn oversees a trxn costing 550b, uses 500b of taxpayers money and access pays only 50b. At the end of the deal, access with its 50b gets 75% of the proceeds of the trxns.

It doesnt take a soothsayer to know that underhand dealings are going on. In the US and UK, what the govt did was to nationalise the banks and when the banks were stabilised, they sell the shares back into private hands at a profit!!!

Or you want it in even simpler da-da-da terms?

Ladies and Gentlemen,

This is Sanusi Lamido Sanusi ploy to own the recapitalised banks as a proxy for powerful northern interest who felt the north lost out in the last consolidation exercise.

Without going into a lot of technical jargons, what is happening is that the said northern interests will own all the extra new access bank shares to be created. So if access is paying 7.5% of the transaction cost but gets 75% of intercontinental, it means SLS and his cronies will get the balance of (75-7.5)% of the access bank shares to be issued for purchase of intercontinental(Aig and wigwe will also get small egunje shares). Effectively, SLS and his cronies have used AMCON funds to buy intercontinental and then merged intercontinental with Access bank.

SLS a-ss lickers can try and dispute the above facts, cos no finance professional will EVER advise his client to put up 500b for a trxn and the other guy who puts up 50b (90% less) now ends up getting 75% of what is being bought, except SLS is the one doing the mathematics involved.

hyelhira:
It 'adds up' my brother (at least in some people's computations). Check the merger document at http://www.accessbankplc.com/Library/Documents/Presentations/Business_Combination_with_Intercontinental_Bank_Plc.pdf pages 11, 18 and 19. Presently Intercontinental has a negative shareholding of N550b which AMCON will inject the necessary capital to zerorise. Then ACCESS will pay N50b.

My question is this: why doesnt AMCON just add the remaining N50b and own the bank 100%? Or am I the only one that did arithmetic in primary school?

O su mi, my Lord.

They will slaughter you one day, silly!

I am angry at you 'dan uwa' why don't you invest in North and employ 7,000 "boko haram" to be members into your factories? They will cast you out of Edo and seize your factory, sorry for you, we won't accept you when you come back to Kano either as you have done nothing there to carve unemployment and create jobs with your wealth.
