Thanks for your post.
Please who knows what happened to Glo Main One project? We where told it will solve the problem of our internet capacity upon completion.
Has it been completed?

I will be speaking from another perspective.
Running a University is capital intensive. Look at how dilapidated the infrastructures of government institutions where they don't charge much are. I think these fees are fair if the service offered is commensurate.

We are selling oil, we don't know where the money is ending up, at least we know where ponmo is ending up!

Can I partner with you to provide willing businesses with web presence (website)?

Please let's not laugh at this, if you look at the picture very well, you will notice that it is inside the bush. This may be a wedding contracted in a refugee camp or internally displaced camp.

This is 2015, let us vote to stop celebrating beautiful looking buildings. What we need to celebrate is beautiful management of the Nigerian Airspace. What is the plan to make our beautiful buildings productive? I have seen buildings once celebrated in Nigeria become shadow of themselves because there is no management.

Is 3rd World country synonymous with 3rd class brain? If we can't manage locomotive trains how are we going to manage electric trains?

My thinking on why a Fayose is a governor in Ekiti
1) Ekiti is the poorest state in the South West and one of the poorest in Nigeria (based on the monthly allocation from the Federal Government. Note that Ekiti is one of the richest in terms of human capital development index).
2) Because of No 1 above, unlike some of the other South Western states that are able to retain a good percentage of their intellectuals in their state, Ekiti intellectuals are scattered across schools in Nigeria and there may be more of her intellectuals in Lagos than the entire Ekiti put together.
3) I suspect that a good number of educated Ekiti citizens living in Ekiti state have disconnected themselves from the political process of the state and are only watching from the sideline.
4) Fayose's grand understanding of the psychic of the typical voter in Ekiti is then deployed to his own advantage packaged and presented as if it is to the advantage of his subjects.

If you can think of a better explanation please tell me!

I sincerely congratulate her for all her hard work. And of a truth she is very beautiful.

Dear OP,
please let's stop throwing words into the air anyhow. Bagging 1st Class honours in Accountancy from University of Brighton in United Kingdom is a great individual achievement but hey "made Nigeria and Africa proud"? Year: 2015? Course: Accountancy? University: Brighton?

I am not making case for these guys but the story is yet to add up.
Yes they have no travel documents
Yes they were going to Pakistan (Indian's Islamic seemingly terrorist promoting neighbour and Indian's long standing enemy state)
Yes they said they will also to go to Iraq
Yes they violated some laws
Yes they are from Nigeria's first known terrorist grooming state: Kano (Remember Abdulmutallab?)

But Indian Police should not use this case to buy itself some cheap international publicity; even before investigation. How about tiding the loose ends before rushing to Press?

I have asked people this same question several times, but no satisfactory answer. However, I think people just like to get carried away with 'feel good factor'.

A good example is someone claiming he has a football club thousands of kilometers away in England. When the club wins he feels happy because he has decided to attach happiness to such an event.

For me, it will make no difference to me if someone from Ghana or my village is appointed into a position; if you have developed your mind to this level I congratulate you.

Op, please can I get your Address?

While not commending prostitutes for being prostitutes; i think we should condemn the ritualists for killing. We need to understand that prostitutes are only doing harm to themselves and other willing people but ritualists are doing harm to all of us against our will. It's a prostitute's turn now, it may be a banker's, a doctor's or a hairdresser's turn tomorrow.

This is so hilarious.

A piece of history here.

Some people have developed a whole industry around the Boko Haram activities. It will take intelligence to defeat this industry and until the industry is defeated, its violence offshoot cannot be defeated.

This is one of the states with the best potential in Nigeria, but unfortunately, it is one of the worst governed state. I pray the people will succeed in enthroning somebody that can turn around the fortune of that state.

The beauty of Jos is not in question. What is in question is its security situation. Few tourist will consider going near Jos these days. I pray that it overcome its challenges soonest.

This may interest you if you are schooling in the UK or you plan to school in the UK or you are the husband, wife, or partner of the person schooling or planning to school in the UK.

Why was the tier 2 visa introduced?
The UK tier 2 visa was introduced to avail UK employers with the opportunity to employee from outside the UK resident workforce to fill particular jobs which cannot be filled by settled workers. The visa is usually for 2 or 3 years. Every year, there are over 20,000 of this type of visa available. However, international students in the UK switching from tier 4 to tier 2 visa category are not limited by this number of available annual tier 2 visas.
This article only covers how tier 4 visa holders can switch or benefit from switching to the tier 2 general visa category.

Who can apply for this visa?
Ideally, you will be able to switch from student visa (tier 4) to a tier 2 (general) visa if you have completed:
a UK bachelors degree
a UK masters degree
a UK postgraduate certificate in education
a professional graduate diploma of education

You may also be able to switch if you are:
any other type of student including: student nurse, student re-sitting an examination, overseas qualified nurse, postgraduate doctor or dentist, student union sabbatical officer or a PhD student.

You are also qualified to switch to tier 2 general visa, if you are a dependant partner (wife, husband, etc) of someone with a tier 4 visa.
I have often had students asked me if people really get this visa? Most times I laugh before answering with this line “the fact that you and I don’t get much money does not mean some people are not getting too much of it”. If that is the case, the question I expect interested person to ask is what do I need to apply for this visa?

The answer to this question is why people give up without giving it a try. Unlike the tier 4 student visa where the visa application requirements depend on you, your money, and an avalanche of ever willing to admit UK Universities; tier 2 general visa application requirements depend more on a number of willing but hand-tied UK employers than it depends on you. That is, an employer who has a tier 2 sponsorship certificate will have to offer you an employment at a right skill level and be willing to pay you at least £20,800 per annum.

Very complex? Well, fairly complex! Personally, I prefer it when whatever I am up to is squarely up to me and I am sure most people are like that. The good news is that we are all born with a will power and that is what we have taped into to get to where we are today.

I am done with sermonising and getting into the real details now.


1. What qualifies me for the tier 2 general visa application?
You need to score 50 points in a point based application system. 30 points for getting the right job offer, 10 points for passing the English language requirement and 10 points for having maintenance fund (£940) in your account for 90 consecutive days.
If you schooled in the UK, the English language requirement is a work over for you. Also, keeping an account balance of £945 for 90 days is achievable, leaving you with finding the employment.

2. Where do I find the employment?
The UKBA has a list of certificated tier 2 sponsors on its website. There are several of them. You will need to download this list and work with it. Naturally, you don’t need to waste your time applying to any company that is not on the list. Also, if you are applying for job through recruitment agencies, they are very quick to indicate whether their client will be sponsoring for tier 2 or not, take note of this so as not to waste your time with employers that can not help you.

3. But why will an employer decide to employ me in lieu of UK/EU citizen?
UK has a list of skills on the UK shortage occupation list. That means they don’t have enough people with these types of skills. How about if your skill is on such list? Another thing, some employers are happy to work with non UK/EU immigrants because they’ve tried us and they know that we work hard perhaps harder and certainly with lower pay. (Think about an average African football player in the premiership league; compare his salary to that of a British player on a similar skill level).

4. Who am I competing against?
Each time you see a vacancy with a declared tier 2 sponsorship possibilities, you are competing with mainly Africans and Asians assuming no UK and EU candidate was found suitable in the first instance. Now that is huge competition considering that there are more Chinese and Indians schooling in the UK than Nigerians.

5. What is the advantage of this visa?
The main advantage is being able to gain experience in your field of study. Any experience you gained in the UK is an international experience when you get back to your country. Beyond this, it can also help you to position your career for growth if hired by a big company. Lastly, it will avail you the opportunity of not going back to your country broke.

This article is getting too long and I am not done yet. You need to know about some of the employers that you stand some chances with, you need to know what skills they are looking for and you will need to know how to progress from there. I will have to do a second part next week, please do bear with me.
