So those of us with student visa that are stuck here due to flight. What's the best way to go about this, what type of flights are people using to leave as air space is closed.
Wait till end of July(as there'll be open international flights from Nigeria by then), or use executive bus service to get to Benin, Togo or Ghana to fly from there. Contact ABC transport or other bus companies offering premium transport services to those aforementioned destinations. People are living Nigeria every week. In time of uncertainties like this, new options and opportunities usually sprout up for those in emergency situation. If you know how to dig for information, you'll find your way.

If he fills new DS-160 is that not going to contradict the previous information the Agent filled in 3 years ago.
He should waka carefully. Some have been unable to get their visa after many attempt because of issue like this.
If you want a professional advise: DO NOT SUBMIT ANY DS160 yet, or he will chop refusal at the embassy.

First, contact that agent or go back to him/her for basic information he/she used 3 years ago. If you must change anything, make sure they are not critical information that will backfire during the interview. You don't even just want to take any advise from just anyone on this thread on this issue.
I know someone who has been refused 6 times because of same issue. Don't fill anything yet. Contact the agent and ask for information filled in certain places, then use that to guide yourself for the new application!

pisces is good. many pisces are occultic giants. The age of pisces is the golden age when esoteric wisdom flourishes. pisceans are full of occultic wisdom.
The most mysterious sign in the zodiac too. I am current drawn to a lady born February 24th. I have been having difficulty forgetting her; she is a magnet, magnificent, intelligent, beautiful, smart...Goodnes! I guess she was right, because she clearly told me I will never forget her or meet anyone like her. Seeming true...I think about her every day, no matter how busy and academically engaged I am. I guess I am the steel then? This girl has charm, given that I have NEVER felt like the way she made me feel when we spent time together. First person to make me feel her presence. Why? Why this particular girl? I have seen several beautiful girls, as friends and sisters. But this girl is completely different! Why?

Meanwhile, I am April 25th. My Gloria is so mysterious, so deep, like a forest you cannot see through her. What is she thinking? What is she feeling? But I know she has her soft spot, and need companionship and support to stabilize in her journey of mystery on earth. But the love I have for her is one of a kind, even though we haven't seen since December, and haven't talked in 5 months. Never felt so in love in my entire life. Does she feel the same way? I don't think so. I doubt she even think about me! The issue? She is escapist. grin She can't be pinned down grin.
She is currently away in Europe. So difficult to reach her, so there's no point trying. She studied medicine and a doctor, which makes her even more appealing and personable to me because it's my dream to marry a lady with a calling in medical-related field. I see them as small Saviours called out by God to help humanity!

Pisces is addictive sign, very impressionable (her environment shapes her easily, which can be good or bad). You can't really destroy a Pisces; it destroy itself. That is how dangerous it is! Unpredictably strong and weak! The only sign that has all the traits of other zodiacs within her! So, when you said Pisces is good, you need to elaborate, because the sign can also be highly manipulative, indecisive, foolhardy, and refuse to take good advice even when they know that the advice is the right and beneficial. They can be weak, which is why they have to marry supportive wife/husband and be treated well. If this is the case, a Pisces can be a man/woman greatest gift from God as a partner! You will never run out of intelligence and insight for your business or project. All the Pisces I know that enjoyed early freedom from home are not in their best form as I write. But they are good-hearted, generous, magical lover, sexually exploratory, and if trained well from childhood, are highly intelligent people. My dear graduated with 3.75 GPA on 4.0 scale, which is impressive for medicine.

As for being occultist, I guess if the sign is inclined to mysteries, it is secretive too then. I wonder why humans have these characteristics. Are Zodiacs God-designed? Do people star influence their path and quality of life on earth? I am still studying and learning about myself and my traits. I would have doubted Zodiac (I actually do doubt its origin and purpose), but the first time I read about April kids, I saw a lot of facts about me and other April-born I know that I have noticed in the past prior that knowledge. I think our existence are just as mysterious as the stars that we represent or that represent us.

men are the problems,check around and you will notice that the things that made our papas men are lacking in most of them these days,they had to start calling themselves redpillers instead of vegetables.
grin "Men" consist of all men. I'm sure you've seen a case where the woman was the terrible person in the collapsed marriage.
Just some days ago, Will Smith's wife confessed she had relationship with a 24 old guy (her son's friend), who had come to her to seek emotional support. Do note that Will Smith is one of the nicest men in Hollywood; referred as a successful and goodly man.
Marriage is for people who have the qualities it takes to pay the price. Both women and men do fail in their marriage.

PoliticsRe: Report: Magu Could Not Account For 332 Recovered Properties by fairheart(m): 9:50pm On Jul 12, 2020
etokhana:
Ibrahim Magu, suspended acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has been accused of failing to give a proper account of missing 332 out of the 836 recovered real estate property in March 2018.

In a report, the Presidential Committee on Audit of Recovered Assets (PCARA) said the property Magu unaccounted for is worth billions of naira.

The report also listed the number of the affected properties suspected to have been illegally acquired as well as the bank accounts of those individuals serving as fronts for Magu.

“Most of the recovered assets are allegedly sold without anyone knowing and without proper records and without recourse to the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing that has the mandate to undertake evaluation of such property,” the report read.

“Some of the assets have been taken over by EFCC officials while some are sold at giveaway prices to friends and cronies of the Acting Chairman.

“It is also on record that the (suspended) acting chairman is maintaining different accounts, including using proxies who return the benefit of the sold assets to him.

“These funds are then used to procure property and lands in the names of some of his proxies.”

The report also highlighted “massive wastage and deterioration” of physical assets (including landed property, cars and vessels recovered by the EFCC due to poor management.

It also noted with concern the failure to preserve and realise the economic value of the recovered assets, noting that some of the assets were recovered over 15 years ago and left fallow.

“A disturbing example is the two vessels that allegedly sunk at NNS Beecroft Naval BASE, Lagos and NNS Pathfinder Naval Base in Port Harcourt without trace under the watch of the acting Chairman of EFCC,” read the report.

“The vessels named MT GOOD SUCCESS, MV PSV DERBY and MV THAMES were allowed to sink in spite of several warnings from the Navy on the need to evacuate the petroleum products in the vessels.

“The total value of the assets lost due to the negligence runs into millions of US dollars. The (suspended) acting Chairman is yet to provide a report on what happened to these vessels.”

Magu, who is currently facing charges of mismanagement and lack of transparency in managing recovered assets as well as flagrant disobedience to directives and to court orders, would be expected to provide answers to the conflicting figures.

The PCARA report also noted that the few consultants hired by EFCC were not managing a substantial number of the recovered assets and that the EFCC has no capacity to manage the entire assets on its own.

The committee, therefore, alerted the nation on the economic and environmental implications of this negligent of duty by the commission.

It equally observed that EFCC made conflicting submissions or returns to it in respect of the non-cash assets which substantially affected the committee’s assignment.

“For instance, EFCC stated 836 as the number of Recovered Real Estate in the Original Returns it made to the President on 07/04/2017,” the report read.

“However, in its 1st Returns to PCARA on 13/12/2017, EFCC short-changed the system and gave the figure of 339 thereby failing to account for 497 property.

“It is interesting to note that when the Acting Chairman was further queried on this lapse, he made further contradictory 2nd return of 504 on 09/03/2018 thereby bridging the gap to 332 property.’’

The committee identified lack of internal control mechanisms/systems within EFCC and lack of adequate returns by EFCC departments and zonal offices as reasons for these discrepancies and inconsistencies by the commission.

The suspended EFCC boss was also alleged to have neglected and refused to comply with the regulations on the management of recovered assets, 2019, as he embarked on disposing of some of the property without regard to extant law.

“These Regulations was issued in line with international best practices and to ensure that all the anti-corruption agencies report all their recovered assets in a database provided by the Federal Government,The report read.

“It is important to note that the (suspended) Acting Chairman in apparent disregard of the regulation is disposing of these properties without regard to extant laws, and Regulations and without reference to the Office of the Attorney General of the Federation and in effect, there is no way to have an audit of the property.

“This is also a clear sign that there is a deliberate attempt to hide the exact figures of recoveries, which is an indication of fraudulent intent.

“These actions of the (suspended) Ag. Chairman in refusing the Regulation is a clear case of refusal to follow lawful instructions and directives contrary to the provisions of the Act that establish the EFCC.”

According to the fresh report obtained by NAN, Magu and some top officials of EFCC were allegedly using these recovered assets to corruptly enrich themselves.

I have actually met more married women in pain and regret than single ones of the same middle age or older... If marriage were that fulfilling why is divorce rate way over the roof?? ! Why are married women seriously outdoing men in infidelity??!...
Honestly, if I wasn't disciplined and principled with regards to sex, I would have more sexcapades with married women than single.
Bottom line, while marriage brings fulfillment to some women and men, it brings the exact same opposite to others... Everyone should be true to himself, and not following a dumb societal bandwagon.
So, yes... Marriage is not Everything!!! tongue
You have met only the people you want to meet. Sorry that you have not met any happy couples; they are many out there.
Marriage brings fulfillment. Marriage did not work for some people not because marriage is societal bandwagon; it didn't work because people did not understand what marriage entails and the price it demands in order to work. If you barge into a venture/business that you did not first understand, you will incurred pain and misery. A selfish generation cannot understand what marriage is: Marriage is for selfless people, not kids who are not earnest and committed to family life. Marriage brings fulfillment, but you'd never know if you end up married for the wrong reason with the wrong person. That is that!

Comments like this are the reasons why people try to encourage single/childless women to not listen to any of the wickedness that is thrown at them. Instead, to focus on their goals and have a good life not matter what they end up achieving or not achieving in their romantic lives.
There is nothing wrong with the comment. A woman who can sleep with men can also be married.
It is true that most single women above age 30 do have inner pain, and desire companionship.
A well-lived life advances humanity. Goals and good life has never stopped any woman or man from having a home with wife/husband and children.
This generation is just so selfish and confuse. I imagine if every woman is like Rita, humanity is doomed.

It is not that i really have a hidden agenda about going to the US, but we all know that schooling in the US is more beneficial than doing it online.
In the US i Will be schooling and work and together with my stipends to support myself financially, forget about that i have sponsor remember am going to be the one sort myself out for about 80% of my expenses because I am a working class here with wife and kid too.
So going to the US will make the studies very easy for me and i Will also be able to cater for my wife and kid that i left behind here in Nigeria out what I am earning from the part-time job I will be doing there now. At all at all I must be able to pay for their house rent and feedings here in Nigeria now.

But schooling online here in Nigeria, all these benefits would be lost now. This is my plan oooo
Oh no, please don't misunderstand me. I never inferred you have a hidden agenda at all. The truth is, I even commend your planning to take your first semester from Nigeria, and if you ask me, I have no opinion against that. I am just looking at implication of getting the visa after you complete the first semester. Also, it is MBA, which is currently taken up by "online program" by most US universities.

Nevertheless, you certainly think in the right direction by asking that question, but I think it should look like this if you're going to do first semester in Nigeria: "Have you started this course?" You say Yes! Then he ask: "You have done your first semester of MBA online. Why not finish it here? Why spend more money going to the US when you have started it at the comfort of your house and able to attain a good GPA?"

What is your answer to this question? Use whatever answer you come up with to decide what is best for you! grin

If you can take the first semester online, then you can take the entire program online, and so, no need for a visa to travel to the US to complete it, except for graduation ceremony and your degree.

Boss are you too putting in for online classes for this FALL-SEMESTER 2020? But my fear is that how is it going to be because I need my GPA badly oooo and I don't want to be underperformed due to many factors like :
Bad network during the lecturers
No Light or NEPA take Light during the lecturer
Battery low and so on.
Hope you people get my points?
If this is an option for you, weigh the cons against the pros.
You have listed 3 inevitable challenges here in case you accept to take the first semester online.
If the need and your desire to begin your program this fall outweigh your tolerance for those challenges, and you know your desire won't smolders when you face these challenges, then go on. Make budget plan, see if fueling generator when there is no NEPA light can help, and upgrade your laptop battery, or get a brand new laptop entirely, then see if you can switch to better network, if possible.

Note that school officials are very much aware of these challenges, and it is one of the reasons they are challenging the new rule, not merely because the rule says some students should return to their countries.
Except you are on full ride scholarship, think very well about this. You don't want to pay some good $ for courses conditions in Nigeria will not let you make the best of.

You dont understand it. It is better to know what's on ground and the reality so that you can plan adequately than being hopeful where there is no way. Even Current students dont know the direction Fall 2020 will go talk more of visa applicants.
Let me say something here! I don't know where people get the idea that when there's a problem, there can be no solution from. Because that is what all these argument on reality or not ensued from. Pandemic caused the embassy to shutdown, and there's a new rule from ICE. Trump administration has made many rules it has been forced to re-craft, reverse, and adjust--making way for the necessity.

The reality, as you stated here, was not caused by the pandemic, but the new ICE rule, right? Come on, rule can be amended, in a matter of days. So, what is the unnecessary tussle? There is a serious meeting going on on this already, and we will know the outcome soon.

As for hope, yes, reality has never stopped man from hoping. You have hoped before; you have hoped for way where you thought there might be no way. Don't even forget that now! People here understand the reality; they all know there is pandemic and that embassy is closed. But nobody, I repeat, nobody should try to tell them to throw their hope in the dust bin because of reality (that embassy is closed, and that it will not reopens)! What if it reopens by month end? And what if it doesn't? What do they lose? The plan is even to attend to "eligible students" only; not a all-service resumption.

Let them hope. If embassy opens, they can get the visa they have been working towards for several months; if embassy doesn't open, fine.
No human has lost a portion of themself for hoping in the midst of uncertainty! Don't forget that!

Maximus69:
God doesn't reveal himself to people just like that otherwise it will be a partiality!
According to the Bible, He (God) only reveal himself to people whose heart are pure and willing to do what God wants but are going towards the wrong direction.
But once a person's heart has completely discarded all thoughts about a Supreme Being, the next thing you'll see such persons doing is making efforts to become your God.
So in a bid to set standards that he himself will not uphold, an atheist will be negating the idea of someone else that's Supreme above all! wink
