What in the world are you even talking about. A LOT of inventions came about from black people. Including great medical discoveries by NIGERIANS who have made discoveries on Cancer and Diabetes. There’s a whole movie about a Nigerian doctor Bennet Omalu who inspired the movie Concussion. If you are too lazy to google, here are some inventions by black people.

https://dailyhive.com/seattle/inventions-by-black-people

STOP TALKING DOWN ON YOUR RACE! It’s ridiculous and continues to purport the narrative that black people are not good for anything. I can’t believe I’m educating another black person on the value that we bring as a race and he’s saying that I’m adding emotions to it. Do better

Again with the emotional roller coaster.
I am not talking down on my race i am only stating facts.
From the littlest things to the largest

Bro, ever since i came to the uk, for over 10 month electricity has never blinked, i have never experienced such in my life, snow has fallen, rain has fallen, sun done shine, i no for once hear say transformer blow.
We are stating facts you are here saying dont talk down on ur race, did my race do something good and i did not commend them.

Look at transport system, an app is there to tell you exactly when the bus is coming, when next the bus is coming and where to stay to catch the bus. Everything organized.

Look at train system.

Even the tinest shop such as a barber's such is infusing apps to serve clients better

We are talking facts u r saying stop talking down on ur race

kwakudtraveller:
I hope you know that some of the everyday things you use was invented by a black person. Including the coloured computers you use today. Stop downplaying your race. A little google search will go a long way.

Abeg enough with emotion, facts dont care about emotion, what is 'some' compared to 'most'

If some invention were by black race, then most were by white race.

We talking of most u talking of some.
Na some we wan chop.

If we had it going why then are u killing yourself to live in their land and be a citizen of their land

Abeg call a spade a spade

Even the some u r talking about arent citizen of africa nation they are blacks whom were born there

ELff:
You need to read everything.

Which kind stress be this

Please do i need to also read the highway code and road signs, or its only the theory and hazard that is important.

Do they also ask for highway code and road sign in the computer test?

lavida001:
There is nothing special my guy. If they can do it any other race can as well. We should stop hailing Europeanns.

Why has ur race not done it?

lavida001:
Nothing special about oyinbo people ooo. We should stop glorifying whatever dey do

Nothing special about people who design rocket, generator set, handphones, manufacturing machines, trains, planes, internet network

Abeg you need to hail them cus its not easy

[quote author=AirBay post=124293531][/quote]Sorry airbay is it a known fact that nhs only sponsor band 5 upwards and only for clinical roles?

Driving test date: 25 August 2023.

Driving instructor is charging £30 per hour (using my car) or £40 per hour (using his car).

Are these rates not too high?

He's proposing a 10 hour lesson.

PS: My Naija licence don expire.

Please boss i want to ask something, this driving instructor you are talking about is it personal one that you contracted to teach you before you go for the actual practical from dvla

Or this is the dvla own gan gan?

1. You don't need to go to the Company. Same with if you give birth to more kids. If the Company paid for your visa, you can consider requesting to see if they would consider paying for your wife's but many may not.

2. Being a Pensioner means she's retired and gets regular income so she's seen as less risk and is understandable if she stays in the UK for some months. If the visitor is working, how can you justify staying away from work for months?

Oh i get you now
As for number two, the person is still working, can a letter of annual leave suffice for as to why the visitor is leaving his/her work in nigeria to come spend sometime with me in uk.

Please i hv some question to ask

1) if i get cos on January and like august my wifes comes to uk to join me. Will i have to go through another documentation with the company that gave me cos so that the cos can conver my wife who just newly came into the country? Or is it with home office i will take it up with and the company doesnt need to be involved?

2) about this mother in law visitation. I keep hearing people say is she a pensioner, if the old person visiting is not a pensioner will that reduce the chances of approval?

You are expected to know them all. There are about 774 questions to go through. You can go through all the questions in a little over a week if you set aside time for a 100 questions per day.

Omo bros this thing hard o, argh see as u talk am, i have been doing it i am getting just 8/10, and that is for one category alone o, the way una dey talk am i think say e easy o. This thing is hard nau

Please am i expected to know each of these categories or only the vehicle handling category is fine?

Cus there are over 1000 questions in all the categories combined o how can anyone know them all

2. When you invite a friend from Nigeria for your graduation, they are assessed on the merit of their application (and risked-assessed based on that). The UK is very unlikely going to issue a visa to your friend who is capable of ‘elopes’. (I think your use of the word is improper in this context, but that na talk for another day). It is the reason why your friend who is single, earning less than £50 per month, owns no businesses and with zero history of international travel is likely to be denied in the first place.


3. Ever heard the word estimate / forecast? They will use a forecast and deduct. End of tax year, if they deducted too much, they refund you. If they deducted too little, they send you later to pay the balance.


4. Ever heard of HMRC Starter checklist?
See page 2 of the checklist. I have attached a screenshot for you to see.

5. It’s not exactly true to say ‘most jobs ask for DL’. Maybe most of the jobs for which you are qualified and looking for are asking for DL. If they do, it’s because it’s required.
A Project Manager working for HS2 (for example) may be required to travel to site where public transport is not readily available.

Thanks my boss

giselle237:
you will be taxed as normal according to the rate on hmrc website. If at the end of the annual tax year in April and you paid too much tax the previous year, you will be refunded. If you underpaid, hmrc will still send a letter to you to repay what you owe.
Same applies, your extra job will be classed as a 2nd job and you will be taxed accordingly…

Thanks boss

eniola1010:
My questions plenty small

1) please which of these app is the best app for preparing for the driving test

2) if i invite a friend from nigeria for my graduation and he elopes what will happen?

3) how exactly does the gov know the right amount of tax to debit from our salary monthly?
I know its very easy to determine how much tax one is to pay monthly provided ones annual income is known.
But what about someone who just started a job and the monthly income is not static, and such person has not even used a year yet. How then did the gov know exactly the right amount that they are debiting monthly?


4) if someone works two job, will the two wages be taxed separately or the taxes for the two jobs will be taken from the wage of one of the jobs


5) i noticed that most jobs ask for driver license and even if your role does not concern care they still put DL license as requirements why? Does project manager want to be going shopping for CEO ni?


6) i know that the requirement for COS is proof of english, someone was telling me that companies here in uk dont like accepting transcript or waiver from your uni in nigeria that it is either ielts or ecctis verification.

And this got me confused, afterall the company should know that i scaled through english test before even being accepted to run a masters degree in uk, so why cant they use my nigerian bsc transcript or uk msc transcript or CAS as proof of english proficiency, why must it be ecctis rating or ielts, or could the person who told me this info be blatantly wrong?

Who can answer number 2 3 and 4

Lexusgs430:
You are harsh o....... Comparing sleeping in an airport in the UK vs sleeping in an airport, right in the heart of west africa, lagos, nigeria........... 🤣🇳🇬😂

Lol, him no talk say na nigeria airport na, na later him just edit the post

OmichaelO:
I will answer the ones I'm sure .


1. I used the first app . 4 in 1 driving test


5. Lmaoooo. I think some companies do on-call for our of hours and incase you need to be there for something. Mine is not care, they are advising me to get one. And I like to think having it improves one chances of getting a job by 10% if not more.


6. If you did your MSc here or doing your MSc here. You don't need proof of English egain na.

Thanks boss

STENON:

Your choice...... But if you pass in an automatic vehicle....... You can only automatically drive, automatic vehicles in the UK .......🤣😜

Attempting to drive a manual vehicle, is illegal and is deemed as you not having a driving licence.........

I go manage my auto like that

Peerielass:
No it’s not compulsory to learn with manual but if you learn with automatic, you can only drive automatic when you pass your test.

I no mind abeg. Who manual help

Abeg if person wan start driving school for uk. Shey na compulsory to use manual?

Abeg what exactly is with offices and driver license.
I have lost two interview because i dont have DL.

Honestly i dont know why people give themself so much headache.

I no know why ppl dey rush.

The Mathematics won't be too hard but one has to make so so many assumptions in such calculation. Rates of Interest changes, Asset Appreciation, Rent hike, etc. There are no hard and fast rules and the preferred option will change with slight adjustment in any of those assumptions

True.
