All we need to ask is can the blood brother of say Obafemi Martins playing football in USA get Visa if the latter is very willing?



YES!

The status of your brother is the key or otherwise.

RaptorX:
If you are willing to wait for 10 -15 years before you migrate to the US, cause that is how long it is going to take for your brother filing for you to be approved.

This is only meant for desperados.

Why start with immigrant visa?

A visiting or student visa is OK for a start.

It makes eventual migration much more easier.

joomole:
Higher chances of travelling if he is willing to assist

Right on point.

Keywords:
Higher Chances
Willingness.

Why can't a brother of good status in the USA successfully invite and bank roll his brother's visit to USA?

aylive02:
If you
support this, God Will punish you >:

God's punishment goes to people like you that curse innocent people entitled to their own freedom of view.

Should God punish you if your children ever enter your official car to party, school or market,whether now or in the future?

Danzakidakura:
guy i swear to God there was am attacked in kateri, after we came back from cross over night early morning from my house we hard serious gun shots.this people can lie with peoples life. Nigerians life means nothing to our leaders

The question is was the attack on a rail station?
You heard gun shots,but did you see anything?

GoodGovernance:
This Gbadamosi of a guy thinks he can become governor of Lagos state by commotion and leaking mouth.

He is always talking recklessly in public.

What a disaster of a politician!

The guy is a real disaster of a politician.

He looks refined facially,but an absolute calamity both in character and utterances.

For our estate, transformer has been out of action for nearly 5 months... we don contribute money but till today, no light.

As for me personally, I've been enjoying uninterrupted solar power for years now. It's not a big system, but enough so I can see at night, charge my devices, and pump water.

Can you kindly relay how much your solar system cost?

TUANKU:
The man caught on tape collecting bribe is the best apc governor says it all...the fight against corruption by the fulani/apc led government is a sham.

Where did you put your brain/senses?

The report is not about the least corrupt governor it is about the best performance as per established indices.

franchasng:
Tell that to your coward lord and tyrant Buhari who couldn't honor court orders until US Government wrote him a warning letter, the joke is on you and your cowardly tyrant

First class ode.

US govt wrote who a warning letter?

Show us a copy of the warning letter now .

What a combination of mischief and idiotism

franchasng:
He is a cowardly tyrant who only oppresses unarmed civilians....he can he face armed men or US government warning He couldn't even wait for 2 days before peeing in his pants.....he hurriedly acted to save himself and family.

American slave.

Sane Nigerians will applaud only Nigerians for their steadfastness to uphold the rule of law.

Only an American slave will attribute the release of Dasuki and Sowore ,to America.

Which US govt warning are you excited about?

Reset your brain,be a proud Nigerian and African.Stop this colonial mentality of seeking refuge in or attributing what happens in your country to America.

The human right abuses in powerful countries like North Korea is worse, can your USA dare interfere or warn their leader?.

We Africans have a long way to go.

America my foot!


Shame on you.

franchasng:
Coward Buhari finally bowed to US government pressure, I thought he said he is a fearless general

He shouldn't have released him and watch US and major countries place him and his looting family and friends on travel ban, and let's see how they will survive it, nansense!!!

Yesterday,Tyrant
Today, Coward

USA place President of the federal republic of Nigeria on travel ban?

Is this not a condition of mental instability?

ifeanyija:
Thanks to USA

American slave.


Thanks to the Nigerian people that stood by the rule of law.

iCauseTrouble:
Thought the OP of yesterday's thread listed him as part of those who will spend Christmas in jail....
See as God works!!!!
God of 11th hour miracle.... Visit me too b4 this year runs out

AMEN

The senate,in a bid not to appear like rubber stamp,would always tamper and increase the budget. Whereas their main function on budgeting is scrutiny and approval,what some misguided elements will still refer to as rubber stamp.

FEGNO:
IF WE WANT TO BE HONEST TO OURSELVES, BODE GEORGE LIKE HIM OR NOT IS TELLING THE TRUTH. IN ANY SANE COUNTRY WITH A DESIRE TO FIGHT CORRUPTION, TINUBU WILL BE BEHIND BARS. THERE ARE NO TWO WAYS OF LOOKING AT IT

Behind bars for what offense?

In a sane country no body go behind bars without conviction.

Efcc under Obj ,yardua and Jonathan could not convict Tinubu of any corruption.

Clowns like you now expect Efcc under Buhari to put him behind bars!

Just like that?

cyberguy72:
Lol you are speaking for yourself my friend odubu its an enemy that doesnt want Obaseki to come back for 2nd term tell me is that right in the eyes of the Oba of Benin.Odubu must go if he doesnt mean well for Obaseki.Mark you the board of NDDC was constituted by that dangerous cabal in the Presidency and composition goes against the Laws guiding the composition of the NDDC board.The Oba of Benin would never support an illegality if u ask me.

Do us a favour by stating exactly the law that was violated in the composition of NDDC.

A board duly approved by the senate.

udoka2013:
even at that,it is not the criteria to rob Peter to pay Paul.

So who is Peter and who is Paul ?

The interim management committee is comprised of 100% Niger Deltans.

When the audit is concluded, the board will still be 100% Niger Deltans.

It seems many Nigerians have been cursed to be perpetual wailers!

MelesZenawi:
Now I like this not for anything but to see how our Senate is just as useless as ever.


Ahmed lawan is not fit to be a Senate president. The same list he rushed to cleared is same list Buhari just dumped in dust bin...


What a Senate and her Senate president....... driven like puppets

Sorry Oshiomhole your plan just failed.

Stupid talk.Useless likes.

What concerns senate president with the exclusive executive power of the president to hire and fire the board of NDDC.

The senate has done its job,the president has exercised his powers.

The presidential will present a new board to senate which has the obligation to approve or otherwise.

Jewessgratitude:
I'm in Lagos and the rice they have here is rubbish. So tasteless, i dont enjoy it one bit.

Thank God I'm not ebmven a rice person as such so I can afford to go for months without thinking of making rice meal.

.

Lady stop embarrassing yourself ,you are not the only one living in Lagos.

I live in Lagos and I have been eating stone free rice for months.

Buying unbranded stone rice is entirely your choice!

Very poor journalistic writing.

So who is the awardee?

Who is he?

Promismike:
Why

He should be allowed to enjoy the change he agitated for.

If you are suffering ,your are probably a lazy youth!

Change is a constant.

urahara:
If the oil coys give us 1 billion dollars.

If we use 305 to the dollar that gives us 305 billion naira.

If we use 360 to the dollar that gives us 360 billion naira.


So obviously that translates to more money to spend on the people. An extra 55 billion naira.

If we use N10,000 that gives us how many trillions?

urahara:
Let me get this straight

The oil coys pay federal government in dollars.

For the budget , this dollars are changed to naira at 305 naira to 1 dollar.

Why doesn't buhari know that if they use 360 naira to one dollar that means more money for federal government to spend on the people ?

What of if Buhari use N10,000 to the dollar,then Nigeria will become a paradise!

My brother,it does not work like that.

Using 305,360 or 10,000 in the budget does not translate to more money to spend on the people!

grandstar:
What Britain expects to generate from taxing fuel, 29.4billion pounds, is probably more than the country's budget. This is $38,682,609,000 in US$

Thank you.

This same people complaining are the same already complaining about VAT increase.


Tax is the major source of revenue for any developed nation.

grandstar:
That is the billion dollar question. As I earlier told you, he doesn't believe in devaluation. He only grudging allowed the Naira to move from around 197 to 305. This was despite the fact that the 197 official exchange rate led to a massive shortage that sank the economy into a severe recession.

Let me make it simple. Imagine your brother sent you $500 through Western Union from overseas, and the bank said they'll change it at 197 rather than at 300 at the balck market, will you be happy? Now, imagine if you were an investor and wanted to pour in $10m, will you bring in money to be changed at 197?

Forex dried up in the market and manufacturers and other business had no forex to purchase capital goods from overseas. Factories and other businesses began to collapse like a pack of cards.

The earlier people like you realise that you do not use parallel or black market rate for budgeting ,the better for you.

The official rate remains N305.

Agboriotejoye:
If you don't understand something, it's better you ask instead of advertising ur ignorance. If govt gets income as stipulated in the budget at 305 to $1 and spends at 360 to $1 who pays for the shortfall?
Have you asked urself why CBN has been pumping dollars into the forex market or what exactly do you think is the excess dollars being pumped for? CBN spends an average of $200m per week on forex so the actual amount lost on the naira may actually be nite than $2.5bn

Your ignorance and financial illiteracy is first class!

What has pumping forex to defend the Naira got to do with a budget estimate and benchmark of N 305.

Where did you get your ignoramus information that government is spending at N360.

You better short up before I expose your financial illiteracy.

Which govt will willingly " lose" $2.5b?

It is only on Nairaland that an absolutely ignorant person will label superior knowledge,ignorance.

So if the government changes the benchmark of the budget from 305 to 360,then we stop losing $2.5billion,abi?

Clown!

amaridigital:
Sad, very sad. UK budget is almost 30 times that of Nigeria and Nigeria's population is almost thrice that of the UK.
Brazil's Budget was $780 Billion.last year. More than 22 times Nigeria's budget and Nigeria has more population than Brazil. Australia with population slightly above 25 million spent $485 Billion last year. That's 13 times the 2020 budget of Nigeria.
We really need to find alternative source of generating income as Nigeria is set to replace the US as the world's third most populous country in the next 30 years. How are we going to provide jobs and infrastructure for the 405million Nigerians by 2050?

Kindly do me a favour by confirming the major source of revenue/income for the U K government.

grandstar:
The exchange rate used for the budget is N305 while the rate at the import-export window is about 360. The government deliberately shortchanges itself of N55 per dollar.

So, let's imagine the dollar portion of the budget is $15b, which means the government is deliberately throwing away N825Billion, or about $2.3bn a year. Lamido Sanusi has been unwavering in condemning this financial tragedy which has put him in the bad books of the Presidency.

Buhari who is the architect of this noxious forex policy now wants to borrow $29bn from abroad! The nerve! You're imprudent with what you have and yet, have the boldness to request for such a monstrous loan.

Apart from the new tragedy of borrowing $29bn, will he now use the same nonsensical pricing on this loan? That will be the biggest tragedy of all time.

Trash.

This is FG budget at official rate of N305.

A budget is an estimate of expected revenue and expenditure,it does not equate to actual revenue or spending.


Even if you put it at N400,it does nothing to actual spending and revenue.

The more reason why we normally compare actual to estimate, via budget variance analysis.

The most critical factor in national budgeting is sincerity, accountability and proper execution.

The bench mark exchange rate is secondary.

Deliberately throwing away $2.3b can only be an absolute fiction of your imagination.It does not exist!
