Keep quiet, Jonathan, David mark, and Ekweremadu are what?
Your narrative is so biased. Jonathan was a Christian president, his vp was a Muslim from Kaduna...so, you expect number 3 man to also be a Muslim?

Tinubu a president-elect and a Muslim, the vice is also a Muslim, so you expect the number 3 man to also be a Muslim? This is common sense.

Please what date was your submission appointment date rescheduled from to Match 15th?
Also did you have to do fill anything to get the early date?
it was May. I didn't do anything to get a rescheduled date. It was the embassy who sent me an email to notify me of this change. Several other applicants also received same mail regarding this from them. I got to know of this at Isolo DHL office the day I went for submission.

Congrats 🎉 mine was VI as well, but 16th March. Still hopeful though
You should get a feedback today with a changed status. Mine, just as those who got approved yesterday took 3 straight weeks to process. Just be positive. Ordinarily, IW application shouldn't encounter any issues. Even if your mission for visiting US is over at the time of submission, your application would still be approved, based on my experience, provided everything is right with your application.

If you've not overstayed in any of your previous visits and you didn't submit a conflicting piece of information in your DS160 application, there shouldn't be any issues as well. This often happens to those who engaged agents to fill out their DS160 on their behalf ( i strongly kick against this). Don't always assume your agents know you and your family more than you do. It took me time to complete my DS160 due to my busy schedules, Any applicant in my shoes could adopt same method. Fill-in a little, save your inputs and log out, until you are finally done. Always DIY. NL is a very rich source of info for your visa applications. This thread has helped me a lot and for many years as a silent reader before I finally joined NL. You guys are amazing. Justwise, I hail oo grin

What I've also noticed is, couples' applications do encounter some unexplainable delays. Husbands would have their application approved much earlier than their wives'. Some were asked to do a follow up appointment for kids and they're still waiting . This baffles me.

TravelRe: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by Eriokanmi: 8:50am On Apr 06, 2023
E be like say those of us wey submit application via IW on the 15th March dey plenty for this thread grin. Maybe because the embassy rescheduled a lot of applicants' submission dates to an earlier date cos crowd was much at the Isolo Office of DHL that morning, quite unusual.

Mine was approved yesterday as well after tracking my application twice on ceac. It was still showing application received in the morning. The status changed around 3pm to approved, when I tracked again, after 8 modifications. 3 weeks was the longest of my wait time ever. I wouldn't know why.
TravelRe: Aero Aircraft Develops Fault Mid-air, Struggles To Land In Abuja by Eriokanmi: 8:04pm On Apr 05, 2023
I expected aero to have come back stronger and better after a long time of recess. My colleague and i had vowed never to board aero again before they went on break. It was in 2021. We boarded in abuja and headed for lagos in the night. Mid air, a carbin crew member with a co-pilot came to have a chat with us as they put it, that the plane had developed fault so, it would be returning to abuja for an emergency landing.

We were over 30 minutes away from abuia already. See pandemonium. Eventually, we landed in abuja safely. Almost half of the passengers disembarked and went to town. They said they weren't going to lagos again. The plane refuelled after the fault was rectified. We landed safely in lagos around midnight.

The NCAA should do the needful right away to prevent a disaster.

@Eriokanmi, listen up! Stop your relentless childish defamation of character here that has been going on for years now. I'm have been a member of this forum for 18 years now and this is the first time I will be TALK TO call you about this. What can be the problem here?
You once talked about the delay in bursary payment during Tinubu's Governorship, so is that enough reason for you to continue the hate?

Something is just NOT right with your relentless hate. [I know your father is from Edo state and your mother is Yoruba, so yes you have 100% right to talk about issues affecting your maternal side just like Festus Keyamo whose father is Urhobo and mother is from Ogun State].

Fashola and Tinubu are in very good terms, and Fash played a strong role as Tinubu's Chief-of-Staff in Lagos State when Tinubu was the Governor and also in the just concluded Presidential campaigns. Stop the hate because you are sounding like a BROKEN RECORD.
Let it rest!
All these for me? grin. Challenge all I said about Tinubu if I lied. I'm waiting.

Do you know the meaning of character defamation? I'd rather advise you direct your epistles to the likes of Dino Melaye, those who attack Tinubu without facts.
TravelRe: Loko-Oweto Bridge Connecting Benue And Nasarawa Now Ready For Use (Pictures) by Eriokanmi: 8:12am On Apr 05, 2023
Fashola and Ambode remain our heros of democracy and good governance. I wish Tinubu had allowed Fashola to run since he didnt like Osinbajo's face. Fashola seems to be the only minister that is working in Baba's cabinet. I am so happy Baba did not allow tinubu to choose his cabinet ( ministerial appointment) from Lagos for him. Tinubu had a preferred minister but Buhari turned him down and said it was fashola he wanted as he had the right to pick whoever he preferred to work with him then, tinubu kicked. He sponsored some elements of the NA to smear Fashola and level unfounded allegations against him, starting from the Ikoyi Shopping mall contract.

Eventially, Fashola prevailed and he was confirmed by the NA. That tinubu of a man is worse than the devil.

Berrityga:
No be for country wey wedding gown nah 500k
That is for those of you wey no wan cut their suits according to ya clothes, lol. Mny are running away from weddings or marriages nowadays because of material things that will fade with time. If they dont have a flat, good-paying jobs...or probably own a car, they wont marry. They have forgotten that it's God who provides because He's the foundation of every home. Such expectations usually come from ladies of nowadays.

Everyone is looking up to the likes Femi Otedola without knowing how they got there today. His dad was a mere printer at shomolu while Femi was the one attending to clients in their very tiny shop. They never dreamt of a better life. His Dad got one connection during the IBB government to print materials for the use of the military government nationwide and he became rich for life. When people were yearning for democracy, IBB single handedly recommended Sir Michael Otedola, Femi's dad to contest and the rest is history today.

Many youths of nowadays cant endure hardship. They want to blow effortlessly. That's a good reason many are still single. Life is a process my friend. You cannot skip the process and expect magic. Who you wan take am resemble...baba God?
To the young couple, congrats. They are still growing. I wish them the very best.

Imagine the selfish Atiku allowing Obi that mandate? By now, it would have been a different ball game. He left the party moment he realised the dirty politics being played by the desperate Atiku. Atiku knew it was the south's turn but hijacked the primaries with money. Tinubu and Atiku are an error in our leadership space. They're both corrupt fellows. They both hijacked their primaries with money. Leadership is by choice.

I heard someone asking...what about wike? Wike my foot! He would t have won the south south sef, talk less of the entire country. Wike is a bad... I mean a very bad blood. If buhari should swear in Tinubu, he will be setting a very bad precedent for our democracy in Nigeria. I'm sure he'd think twice on this.

ebubeson:
One of the most terrible experience some men face in their lives is the love they show to some ladies that may be excited in Courtship. It is sometimes a terrible period because this excited ladies enjoying commitment may be on the loose to sleeping with her EX boyfriends, while their fiances may be looking for wedding hall, getting DJ, doing other wedding plans etc.

Please marry a virgin or a non-virgin virtuous woman. It is painfull to be spending money on bride-price, wedding hall, etc., while your Fiance is given hot sex by her EX, and you are on call with her telling her how you love her, and how you plan to build a home with her.

Please people dont just cheat because of lack of attention, lack of respect, lack of love, lack of finance. You may give all these and the person may still cheat on you.

How can you have 15 boyfriends (with hot sex) throughout your life and expect to be so faithful in marriage?

Please if you are a faithful man or woman, may God bless you and your generation.

If you see good virgin that you like and have peace with, you may need to be fast in marrying her.

Shine your eyes.

DNA may save you.
Hmmm. My already married exes still disturb me till date. I only ignore their calls after knowing their intentions. I assist when i feel like and with no strings attached...whenever i notice it's getting to...I missed you a lot, I wish I married you instead, why are you sounding so romantic on phone (as if my voice has changed), then I know it's time to end the call. If she calls again, I ignore. Not because I'm being rude or arrogant. It's because what's not good doesn't have another name. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.

BusinessRe: External Reserves Fall By $1.46bn In Two Months- CBN by Eriokanmi:
Okay . Testing the mike, I'd call this. Everyone will get served. When other oil exporting nations are benefiting from the increase in crude price per barrel and heaping up their reserves, Nigeria's reserves keep depleting with nothing to show for the excess crude prices. When prices dropped to as low as 40usd a barrel, we no gree hear word but now that they're enjoying the increase, they're keeping quiet.

I'd advise any futuristic youths who wish to japa in search of greener pastures or further studies to not hesitate to do that. Save money and go. Though it's though out there but it's much better than when you're home, placing your hope in this failed government. Time waits for nobody. Add 10 years to your present age and you'd understand better. The time to act is now.

The UK government released over 36k list of UK companies who wanted to hire skilled workers on Feb 4th. You could benefit from this. Always read to tap information. Dont always waste your data insulting people on NL People are already taking advantage of this. Google it, its online. Don't mind them when they say there's employment reserved for the youths somewhere. You and I know it's their usual lies. None of their children is here and those who are here are the ones benefiting from their political influences while they give you crumbs, if at all you see that crumbs. Our jagaban son got the contracts of all his father's campaign billboards nationwide. Where were those killing themselves over him, calling people unprintable names? Don't they deserve to be considered too? Enough said.

Thanks a lot! Please do you mind sharing the bank that you used?
All commercial banks render this service. Waiting time could differ and customers are being treated on a first-in-first served basis.

In case you have an account with one of the new banks, you could be served faster because applicants wouldn't be much on queue. Since you asked, I use polaris for all my foreign and fx transactions and they're faster, even though I also operate accounts with some other banks. Traffic there is less, based on my experience. If you're resident in Lagos, just go to their HQ and ask of Mrs. Adesanya. She's head of their fx desk. Tell her one of their customers directed you. She's a kind lady and am sure the process would be faster,than when you apply at the branch level ....that's if you already had an account with polaris

The rule of the game is, always book and pay ahead of your trip if you have the money. I always book at least, 1 month to my travels, both home and abroad and its been my habit for several years. Same applies to my hotel bookings. You'd save a lot of money, doing this.

Good luck!
