Politics / Re: Insecurity: Establishment of State Police Is Non-Negotiable - Goodluck Jonathan by Eriokanmi: 7:42pm On Apr 22
Moroccoguy:


Simply put, the state governor cannot be trusted with state police, what happened to state electorial commission under their guild.
Let them create it first. People once said atm wouldn't work in a country like Nigeria where there's no network and robbers will steal the money inside it. Today, nobody remembers saying that again. Federal police have been seen snatching ballot boxes openly, arresting opposition without mercy so, saying politicians will use them to have their bidding is immaterial.

It's just like saying Nigeria isn't ripe for electronic voting when those kicking against it watch dstv, livestream, watch Netflix , make electronic transfers in their in their remote villages, seamlessly.

They know most if us don't know our rights as citizens so, they always have their way. If we can be protesting like we did during end sars, suing them to court without embracing tribalism, these people who are so minute will sit tight. They're not up to us in population.

Thank you. I have done that several times without luck. Even the site had to temporarily suspend my alc for a few mins. VFS call helpline never goes through.
You may try again later. I almost gave up trying when i was processing mine. You have 30 days to submit and 2-4 business days to have your passport back, if you are gonna pick it up at vfs office.

They all hold US valid visas. I guess maybe because we were refused in 2020, that could be the only reason I can think of that caused the long processing time.

Please can anyone guide me on how to schedule VFS Passport submission appointment. I have tried several times but I haven’t gone pass the OTP verification stage. Don’t know if it’s a system error or something. My time is ticking cos I have received this passport request since the 16th of April.
Try resend the otp cos it doesn't come on time. By the time it finally arrives, it would have expired. Check your mail and keep refreshing it after re-sending cos vfs otp may never come to your phone. Cheers!

Stop reasoning like a dunce. Humans have continued to be savages from time immemorial. Only the savage can withstand savage. That why even the supposed civilized people who gave you this fake democracy and country prepare for war everytime with billions of dollars. Russia and Ukraine are fighting in the 21st century. America is sending war aids and weapons in this same 21st century. Only the savage can withstand savagery.
Nigeria is a failed country that is holding the destinies of millions down. Peaceful way doesn't seem to work on the black man yet.
Crap. Go grab the sovereignty by way of killings. Only a daft like you would be comparing war between two countries with tribes agitating for secession within same sovereign state.

In your daft mind, America will also supply you weapons to fight. grin

When Federal government was killing Civilians then, going for peaceful rallies for the actualization of the sovereign state of Biafra, you people urge the government to kill them, now they're defending themselves from terrorists in security uniform. Una don they call them terrorists.
For any Igbo man killed for the Biafran course, their blood will not be wasted for nothing
You don't know what you're saying. I'm in support of biafra and yoruba nation. You can't agitate for sovereignty by killing. It won't work that way in the 21st century.

Ipob kills lawyers, obis, prominent igbo people...are they also in uniform? They kill both uniformed people and civilians. That's crazy.

Can you imagine? So how did Nigerian airports meet NCAA and ICAO certifications? So how does the domestic airlines communicate with air traffic controllers?

This is not when the world is advancing to improve the facilities at the airports in order to enhance operations in an inherent unforgiving world like aviation.
If you talk too much, they'd shift everything on Peter Obi, their nightmares. Better limit it here. Nigeria requires urgent redemption

Politics / Re: Former Minister, Isa Pantami slams Bosun Tijani for relaunching NCAIR by Eriokanmi: 7:36am On Apr 22
Akwamkpuruamu:
E Don happen. Dem Don de insult each other
The earlier you know there are factions in the apc, the better. There several sub-parties inside the apc and they're already breaking away gradually. The elrufai faction is leaving, the Buhari's faction is leaving, the apga faction is breaking away. The kwakwansiya faction has left since. The amaechi faction is leaving. Before the end of Tinubu's term, only the tinubu faction will remain.

Most of those apc governors will defect before 2027. This i know.

When Pantami was appointed, I underrated him especially judging from his fanatical backgrounds and some allegations of him killing a preacher on campus which was later affirmed by the victim's father and his friends who were students at that time without being afraid of the man in power.
He really did well as minister. But vengeance is the Lord's. If truly he was instrumental to the killing of that boy who was preaching on campus, he will face his comeuppance, that's 100% certain

When you dont know, You ask.
You are talking about 2021 while I'm talking about 2023. I got my French Schengen Visa within 4/5 working days, submitted on Monday, got a Passport Pickup E-mail on the Friday, this was December 2023.

If I didn't know, I'd have asked of course. But because I once applied for same visa like others did back then, with a long wait time before approval, it was enough evidence of knowing, for me. Even before 2021, People always wanted to avoid France because of their ridiculously long wait time so, I found it strange when I read your post, to be honest. The visa expired this year and I've since renewed via Germany which took 15 days to process. But having read some other's posts , affirming your claim, I knew its possible.

@ashirioluwa has also corroborated your claim, which I also appreciated in my response to him. Things are changing everyday. I've learned something new about France schengen visa now

So Obi graduated from junior school (Agpa) to senior school (PDP) then to university (LP)?

But did not crosscappet like Atiku and co?
I just told you that simple truth. Pdp is APGA and vice versa. 100% of the time they've adopted and endorsed the pdp presidential Candidates. History doesn't lie. The difference is the party name. I've also told you why Obi left for the Labour. If the pdp should zone presidency to the south in the next election, Obi and other aggrieved members will return to the pdp. Atiku betrayed the party's constitution out of greed. I hope he's learnt his lesson already.

APGA is a junior brother to the PDP. Only a non-nigerian doesn't know this fact.

If you don't believe that one can get a Schengen visa through the France Embassy within 5 business days, then you're new to the France Embassy.

Most frequent travelers who apply for Schengen visas through the France Embassy get decisions within 5 business days.

My wife went for biometrics on Friday, January 12, and she received a passport pick-up message on Wednesday, January 17, 2024. That was just like 2 or 3 business days, and she was granted a 3-year Shengen visa.
Then I'm new to their recent development. I got 3 years too in 2021. It expired January but it took nearly 90 days to process. I renewed via Germany and processing time was 15 calendar days.

Thanks for the info. Covid era must have contributed to that. It was my first Schengen visa issued by France, I've always entered via Germany before then.

I'm not defending him. That's the truth. If pdp respects their construction today by zoning presidency to the south, obi will return to contest, atiku is the problem and the reason he left which was why wike and Co refused to support him.
Crime / Re: Reign Of Terror: Lagos Blackspots Where Hoodlums Rob, Assault Citizens In Broad by Eriokanmi: 8:54pm On Apr 20
My phone was nearly stolen yesterday evening at ijaye-ojokoro area. I was going to see a friend at command area, via meiran. As soon as I passed ijaye, to turn in front of the ojokoro estate and face meiran road, there was this earth-moving equipment that was trying to turn and face ijaye but those vehicles that entered one way from ahmadiyya prevented him.

As soon as the long traffic eased, the long trailer now turned. On getting to my turn, a guy was talking to me, as if he was trying to clear the road for me, I now wound down, not knowing there was another guy to my right who was busy looking at my phone. As the guy on the left was talking to me to distract me, the guy on my right had picked my phone from where it was hidden, meanwhile, my ear buds were connected to it. I suddenly noticed that the music was fading in my ears so I looked at where I kept the phone lo and behold, it wasn't there. I now saw the guy trying to hurriedly take the phone across the road. I saw it in his hand. I didn't know the kind of speed with which I jumped out of the car to chase him. The other guy , noticing I might shout oleee, quickly collected my phone from him and gave me. I couldn't say anything again . Naxo my Samsung galaxy for loss . They'd just take it to computer village and sell it for 400k.

Robbery in lagos has taken a different turn and instead of acting, our governor is busy shouting like a tout

Imagine PO hunting ticket from APGA to PDP and then LP grin grin
Pathetic
PO would have joined an independent party. Unfortunately, the NA, for the reason best knowm to them have refused to work on that. They pushed for it at a time but later dropped the move. He didn't leave the pdp because of food. He's a businessman and a successful one for that matter. Politics or not, he can't be poor again in his lifetime and its a fact.

Atiku hijacked the primaries which was supposed to be zoned to the south the 2nd time. The same reason the likes of ortom, makinde and wike backed off and supported the apc candidate instead. So, your narrative isn't relevant here.

I wish I got mine so early in 2021. That means things have changed over time. I'd like to state that no schengen visa takes approx 1 week or 5 working days to process as you mentioned. I stand to be corrected. It takes approximately 15 days to process a visa to any schengen region. It could take 45 days and even beyond at times.
