KEY WORD: 'In My Industry'

Do you have an idea what a Senior Lecturer in a University, with a PhD earns?
Any ideas how much a Band 6/7 Nurse in the NHS earns?
Those primary school teachers that teach your children (assuming the little ones attend state schools), do you have an idea of their pay?

Spot on

@sweetjusty

If you think 25k starting is small for you, look for the market rate elsewhere or try USA,Canada or Australia

Yes, apply for 10year validity booklet if you're able to.

NIN is now mandatory...

Please help explain the electoral roll, what is it? I recently got a mail like that not opened yet. How important is it?


Why na. You dey fear bills?

Electoral roll basically is putting your name on the list of eligible voters in the council area.

It is also used by credit bureau to ascertain your 'stability' or how long you've lived at a particular address- more points on your file

Please I need some enlightenment regarding council tax.

I used to think it's paid as part of a household's utility bill. I'm being made to understand that its nice for each person to pay if husband n wife are both employed so that their immigration status can be interdependent on each other. Thus if one person gets frustrated with his job, their immigration status is retained/stable.

I don't seem to understand this

Can you clarify what you've been told...i don't think each person can pay separately....or perhaps they mean it's better to have both names on the council tax bill

I don't think it's a good idea to mention the name of the clinic, the location is enough info....especially as you've not really started.

Will also like to add, Manchester is very affordable they have many towns with good transport links to the centre.

I want to assume what Abike Dabiri meant is that it is Nigerians without a Nigerian passport who are required to pay for "visa on arrival".

A Nigerian passport holder with dual citizenship should not be asked to pay for "visa on arrival".


You'll only pay if your NG passport is expired, it's basically like paying for Emergency travel certificate, in this case in Nigeria

All the embassies are currently closed or operating with skeletal services and a huge backlog of people trying to renew their passports due to Covid19

Can't the surroundings be properly landscaped to improve the aesthetics...everything in this country is just upside down puah! ...spits on Buhari & Amaechi ofcourse not forgetting the OP that posted this rubbish

it's a port environment, this is the cargo side still under construction.

The passenger stations on the other hand should be properly landscaped- with well laid green lawns- would be highly disappointed if they don't keep it clean- Moniya for example is very dusty at present

At first, the trip seemed boring. Boring because I had a different expectation for the the country. So when I got there and it has the same structure or building style of European countries, I wasn't wowed. However, since I was there, I had to make the best out of the trip and enjoy it.

I wanted to go inside the UN office to explore, but when I asked, I was told that due to Covid-19, they no longer allow tourists into the premises. Of course, Covid-19 is a good reason for anything. Lol.

I shall took some pictures of the gate or surrounding should incase someone decides to visit or for your viewing pleasure.
