I was able to see this HSL Broker. I earlier contracted him to do additional windows for me as I opened up more walls in my house for windows. I paid for everything but could not hear from him. My thought was that the guy had ran away with my money. We were able to track him and found out that he was in an isolation center with Corona virus and sick. I had earlier written bad things about him on his thread in nairaland. I felt pity for him. I had to pull them down again.

It is not in my character to spoil people's business. I had to delete all the things I said about him. I told him that he should have carried me along if he was taken to the isolation center by Governor Wike's COVID-19 task force, but he said he lost his phone at the center and couldn't replace it at that time because of money since he was not able to go out.

The good thing was that he referred us to the location where my work was going on and we went there and I saw the whole windows almost completed. My perception of him changed. I don't know if this is his character as I haven't heard any bad thing about him before this incident. Also let it be that the client is not the one failing to abide by the terms of the contract. I am an independent consultant and I deal with clients that are too difficult to work with, always raising issue. Even before this my issue with him, I held back before making my conclusion to avoid crucifying an innocent person. When I mentioned that I paid a popular nairalander here for a window without the job being delivered, people ask me for his moniker. I didn't provide it as I wanted to be sure of the intent of the guy as I wouldn't be able to sleep if I label false accusation on someone.

The good thing is that he had delivered on the job given to him

Below are the pictures of my windows we saw yesterday.

I'm trying to decide whether or not to engage a lawyer to handle my property. If yes, to what extent?

confun:
Doc, you have tried abeg, just free them... Let's concentrate on better things that matter....

There was nothing like that written in all the article.

How will a company organized visa waiver when they are not the embassy.

Scam of the highest order.

So you think, the Nigerian govt won't be inform by the UK embassy if they wanted doctors.

Read the letter

Who starts a letter with

I am the recruitment agent, no name in the letter, no address, nothing traceable except pay so and so .

poiunt:
To qualify as a doctor in the UK, you must have written and passed plab 1 and 2

There was no flight, there is a travel ban in place

International airport is not opened only local.

I hope they know there's no other African country that can fill Nigeria's shoes in terms of skills and qualifications. There may be some bad eggs, but my people are still the most educated and hard-working in Africa.

As for the image thing, let's not resort to blaming some individuals for that, it's a collective thing. If you are doing the right thing as a Nigerian living abroad, then you have done your part, those who know you will use you as a good example. We are a nation of 200m people with the most corrupt and wicked politicians in the world, you can't expect some youths not to go haywire.

They are not Fulani children.
They are the Diffa Arabs from the eastern desert part of Niger republic, close to Libya, though the children are born here in Nigeria.
Even in Niger republic, they don't like to intermarry the black nigeriens.
Very proud people.
The children go out for begging while the parents stay close-by watching from afar.
Your comment gave justice the topic. Kudos


In Niger, the Arab nomadic tribes are located in the eastern part of the country, mostly in the Diffa region. The Arabs in Niger are known as Diffa Arabs because of this. The Arabs of Niger practice Islam. They speak Arabic and came into Niger from Sudan and Chad at some point during the 19th century. In recent years the Arabs have come into conflict with other ethnic groups in the country, particularly the Hausa, Tuareg, and Kanuri.

The first step to exporting a previously registered car is cancelling the vehicle registration. You will have to head down to Road & Transport Authority (RTA) and hand in all the required documents, cancel the registration and get the Export Certificate and you’ll be given Export plate, the documents needed to do this include: Vehicle registration card (original), you will need the purchase invoice and proof of ownership. See Attached pictures, you see how clean the car is 8k

Whao! Whao! Whao!! Absolute rip off, Toyota Highlander 2010 retails around 3.5-4m in naija so shipping and clearing of 1.8m is quite high, Should’ve been 1.5m at best..... thing is the cars here are actual mileage unlike the ones from Nigerian car dealers that has been altered and rolled back, you can actually roll back 500k mileage to 68k mileage for 300 dirhams in mussafah my 2010 Camry is 268k mileage, 2015 Camry 116k and the Toyota Camry 2015 taxi is usually 500k mileage plus. Next time try and buy from maharba auction in Sharjah or distress sales that’s my best bet. I buy from people that are relocating or having loan problems.....

Actually I’ve a a smooth and not so bad experience shipping a car from Dubai, for economic sake you don’t need a container as you can ship using roro which is the cheapest and I think cars in uae are cheaper than US infact I’m sure of this but shipping cost is a bit expensive. Imagine Toyota Camry 2010 8,000 dhs Toyota Camry 2015 for 12,000 dirhams, Toyota Corolla 2015 15,000 another Toyota Camry 2015 10,000 dirhams although it has been used as taxi. These are cared that retail nothing less than 4m in Nigeria, You can get discounts depending on time and loading port either Sharjah or Dubai (Sharjah) is the cheap option, also I can recommend AEON shipping company cos I used them. I’ll attach screenshot of quotation so y’all can have an idea. Note: quotation is slightly negotiable

uchman:
That cargo company you gave your car to must chop from it that's why it may be bit expensive for you, note that in car sells, every 100k is counted because your profit after selling a car may not be up to 200k to 300k, sometimes between 100+ and if you employ the service of a middle man( Cargo company) they will still have a share in it.

Why cars are more cheaper from USA most times is that it's rare to see 2 people sharing one container from US but in UAE more than 20 people's goods will be in one container and cars too whereby creating avenue for the cargo company handling that container to rip people off...

Get your personal container from Dubai, load your car(s) and sell the rest spaces to auto parts, electronics, electrical, furniture, house hold items and other dealers...

We can talk on WhatsApp with the Nigerian number on my signature...

I ship used auto parts, cars, Electrical materials and others so we can collaborate if you ship cars...

But after Covik 1-9 birus

Hello,
There is no much requirement,
it will all depend on how many unit of cars you want to import and the year...

If you will be importing only 1 car, you will only need to merge in a container already having other people's goods and you will be charged for the shipping and clearing by the logistics company
I.e if the car is a 2008 Camry spider, you will be charged around 800k to 900k both shipping and clearing altogether...
Note that you will only pay this money when your container land Ladipo.

If you will be buying more than one then I will advise you to get a container from Maersk or CMA shipping line and when you are done loading your cars, the rest spaces remaining will be sold to people that has goods to ship and they will pay you...

Maersk shipping line will give you a 20ft container at the rate of 3500 to 4000 dollars and 40ft at 5500 to 6500 dollars and this is called SHIPPING of the container.

When the container gets to Apapa wharf or any other wharf then you will employ a clearing agent to help with the clearing aspect...

To clear a 20ft container with 1 car of year 2008 and other items will be around 2M to 2.3M and 40ft depending on the units of cars in it...

You can ask questions when confused and you can still partner with someone that ships non bulky goods because in a container with car(s)
there must be spaces that will contain other goods that is not bulky...
