This thread should be in joke section walahi

It’s a welcome idea. Just replace the ghost workers that would be caught after the just concluded worker screening exercise with some of these genuine job seekers.

Na wa, good luck to him. Each time I hear his name, I remember that uppercut he gave Orubebe.

How much is the exam fees?

I paid 1500 dirrham which is around 150k.

As Fela, of blessed memory will say, ‘government magic’.

queengift:
do they have exams center in Nigeria

Yes.

OET is an alternative test of English that was designed for healthcare professionals. It is relatively easier to prepare for and has been shown to have higher success rate than ielts.
This thread is for those who have written/passed OET and those who are preparing to write it. Let’s get in here to help ourselves.
I wrote the test on 20 July and I had the desired grade in all the tasks, despite what I will consider as light preparation.
As we all know that the writing and speaking task in OET is profession-specific, the listening and reading is same. So, this thread is aimed at creating more awareness about the test, sharing useful materials and tips that will help candidates in the test. We can also upload our writing tasks for correction by those with better knowledge of English.
It is advisable that intending candidates source for more information regarding OET, if the result will be useful for the desired purpose. As of now, it’s not accepted yet in the US and Canada.

Some people self, both first class and economy class no be inside the same plane, the same pilot and the same route? The only difference is the seat and entertainment.

I used to have this feeling until I was privileged to fly fist class once. Sir, no be ‘same’.

It’s true that job is now relatively scarce, unlike before, even for other nationalities but it’s wrong to discourage people from coming to search for jobs in UAE. As someone rightly wrote, the thread was not meant to discourage people from coming here.
There are many reasons why most Nigerians are not getting jobs. Mostly, these days, it’s what we have to offer in terms of experience and expertise and how we position ourselves for the little opportunities that gets us the job. Nobody is interested in what you went through or how much you’ve spent to make yourself available in UAE.
We do help ourselves beyond what many are insinuating here but you can’t take over people’s life or force them to take some steps to better their chances just because you want to help them. The fact that most people that were assisted don’t give comments to appreciate our kind gesture on pages of nairaland or elsewhere for people to read doesn’t mean that Nigerians are not helping one another.
As per whether Nigerians are suffering here, fingers are not equal and you don’t expect things to automatically turn rosy for you once you move out of Nigeria.
Finally, I don’t think it’s necessary for us to litter the thread with how much we are enjoying life or suffering in uae but I can assure you that there are many Nigerians who are doing great financially and in their careers here in UAE and Alhamdulillah, I am one of them.

Your opinion is full of lies and deceit. Most of us that make use of Niger Bridge virtually every day know there is great development in the second Niger bridge.

Well, I don’t use the said bridge but if what was put up there is how far they could go in 4 years and you don’t see that as a slow progress then, I can say that you deserve the kind of leadership you are getting.
PS: You don’t need to quote me on this again.

emmamajesty:
that means u are an enemy of progress and is not good for ur life

That’s my opinion and it shouldn’t be your business anyway.

There’s no meaningful progress on on this site.

Saraki played national politics at the detriment of his very own people. Otoge will not work against a grassroots politician who is loved by his people.

So this is baba’s response to those allegations made by Sen. Femi Okuronmu.

History is repeating itself in edo because Osho baba decided not to learn from history.

So that means I will be ban for unknown reasons or mistakes that I can go ahead and sue him for forcefully wanted me to work under is company as slave for 2yrs or is there anything else I can do to help out with my situation. Because it's not possible to work with this company, it's just impossible bro. Is there anyone who can help me with better ideas on how to escape from this hell. Because This so called arbab purposely make limited contract for me because he knows I know nothing, and I don't want to sign the offer letter, they talk to me begged me for more than 2weeks b4 I agreed on signing it, he knew his plans and he knew is games.

This is where I need an answer and I need who will give me the correct informatoins, please and please and please I need help in this now, have not sign any contract now what I only signed is offer letter, they want me to sign contract but i don't want this job I want to cancel this contract which I signed d offer letter only, will I still be ban for signing on offer letter only? Or can anyone help to check my status on this?

Well, I don’t think you have any contract with your company yet. You don’t even owe your employer further explanation once you quit at this point. He knows that you are naive about the law and that’s all. You’re not his employee until you are under his sponsorship.

RIP Doctor

Thank you for this, May Allah increase you in knowledge.

Thanks bro. I was the one that patronized you from Abeokuta today. Thanks for keeping to your promise, even though I didn’t follow up due to my tight schedule today.

Not true. Airbnb registration requires identification. Your profile will be verified with your picture and Govt issued id.

They’re not prerequisite to using Airbnb. You may chose not to be verified. Been using the platform for more than 1 year and I don’t have any other means of identification on Airbnb aside from my uae number and email id.

Afrika lives on.

cutieme:
I have been waiting for a conducive time to share my experience here in UAE and I thank God the opportunity surfaced after Justwise lifted the ban he placed on me for reasons I know nothing about.

Congratulations on your job. I have a feeling that this country has a way of knocking you down to the lowest point you’ve ever find yourself before picking you up again IF you don’t give up. Everybody has a story. At a point, the only thing that kept me going was because nothing was left behind at home. I just de smile as I de read here about how menial job is now scarce, as if professional jobs are readily available. Make I no talk much, I de birthday mood.

LEOSIRSIR:
Airbnb doesn't require any form of identification unless the property owner request for such which i doubt, her passort is enough.

You’re right, I use Airbnb quite often and most hosts don’t request for ID unless it’s a guest house or hotel setting.

Peachycute:
Pls I am a Registered Nurse here in Nigeria, what is my hope of getting job in Dubai either as a Nurse or Nurse assistant.
Thanks

You can come and try your luck once you’re eligible to work in that capacity. To be eligible, you need to be licensed/pass the health authority licensing exam. There are 3 main health authorities(DHA, MOH and HAAD). They all have the same requirements, You can download and go through the PQR(professional Qualification Requirement) for nurse in UAE on google. Most people chose Dubai health authority (DHA) by default because it’s the most popular of the Emirates and the process is seamless, making job opportunities to be highly competitive because it’s saturated already.
Of the 3, HAAD is preferred but it’s licensing exam is relatively more difficult to pass compere to the other 2. If you’re interested, start the process and ensure that you have passed before coming here to search for job.
The chances of getting job even with your haad isn’t 100% but more promising.

Thanks boss, the emirate ID isn't ready yet (long story, just won a visa case against my abab at the high court hence I haven't gotten the passport back from the him/courts/immigration, he's meant to compensate me and clear my overstay within a defined period in my judgement which is till September) hence I said my National ID and soft copy of passport.

Use Airbnb then, you won’t need any ID.

Great news!!!

bjnice:
In addition emeritus professor Ogunlesi, from Ogun state the first surgeon in Nigeria. He is the same class with Prof Shehu umaru. But this Prof resume is beyond be careful.

You’re right. Professor Ogunlesi is the first professor of medicine in Nigeria. He’s from Sagamu in ogun state. I trained in osuth sagamu so I heard so much about him.
Yes, this prof here has a very intimidating profile.

An elderly medic. He’s one of the greatest life savers alive. Long live prof.

toprealman:
mention names

Emeritus Professor Akinkugbe, professor of Nephrology. read about him.
Professor Osato Giwa-Osagie
Professor Otolorin
Professor Araoye
ETC

SirWellington:
Hello everyone,

Just a quick on, anyone has an idea of how I can get a partition or room in Dubai for just a week for blacks, my fiancee is coming to see me in August and she will be staying for a week, she will be booking and presenting her passport as ID because Most hotels require physical copy of international passport for both parties (you know the case with most of our ababs here) tho ibhave thevl soft copy of my passport and my Nigerian national id, I stay in ajman but will be coming into dubai once she arrives by mid August.

Anyone with useful info should please mention me.

Regards.

almost all of the hotels wont bother asking you for your passport once you provide your ID. You can use Airbnb for good deals and there are many affordable hotel apartments too.

that ogun state was one of, if not the most secured state for eight years and guys thought it came about like you want to cook your noodles. No.
for his eight years reign there were no extra judicial killing like it use to be, robbery and cultism was brought to the barest minimum and you guys thought its all came about sleeping or some magic wand?
the party in ogun is better settle into governance than witch hunting. no government in Nigeria ever that has embarked on vendetta and witch hunting has ever succeeded.
I believe you guys forgot he bought Armored Personnel Carrier? that need probing too. security equipment he bought legally and under the supervision of the police when he came into office and on leaving he returned and handed them over to the appropriate authority to avoid it all falling in the wrong hands.
I'm not here against us doing the right thing. my question is are we doing it in good fate? every state house has it own security mechanism but the issue is did he hand over every thing in stock?

Well said

This is rape. It wasn't severally, she gave him bite in the struggle and it was reported, police arrested the suspect.
This is how it is..
And not the other story.

Can’t agree less.
