tunapawizzy:This what most people up there didn't understand The policy is targeted mainly at undocumented migrants coming through land borders from Mexico and Canada. 99% of Nigerians that are illegal in US arrive via airport and were duly documented when they entered the US. Their only crime is that they have overstayed but the homeland security still have their records that they came into the country. |
Mehn, see CAF response.....that was epic!!! I like it when people use figures and numbers to win arguments. Even in your CVs and resumes, use numbers to quantify your achievements. It's always an upper cut to whoever is reviewing or comparing your achievements or whoever is arguing with you. Use of numbers, graphical illustrations and pictures tells more stories than writing a ten - page document. |
As long as it legit, I support you, brother. Poverty makes one to take some irrational decisions. The Oyibo woman must have supported the guy, which in turn, the guy is assisting his family to escape Poverty. The house in the background looks new and the guy may have sent the money the family used to build the house. I have seen cases of such unions in my village and the union automatically changed the whole family of the guy from wretchedness to above middle class. |
Including their dog o Some of these celebrities goes through a lot, emotionally and suffers from serious mental illness What must have caused their deaths? |
Transaction man - everything to Trump is business and deal. Good thinking Expect to see wealthy men and their families from Middle East, Russia, China and Far East scrambles for the visa. This visa category used to be in the region of $300k to $500k, which lots of Nigeria CEOs obtained the US passports with I know a business man that did that and I asked him why and he said he needed the US passport to avoid requesting for visa on each time he needed to travel to Europe, US and many other countries. The mobility that the US passport offers is second to none. |
SultanOfAbia:Will their deaths change your present condition? Sometimes, wishing people dead may not be the best option as long your condition is not improved by the death of that person. |
Laid back, arm chair Professors without any original work of their own. I was expecting him to show us a research carried out to disprove the former guy's claim. Nigeria's lecturers could be annoying with their "I too know " posture without concrete evidence. Just text book theory and hypothesis. He should carry out original research on combustion of fuels of different compositions and analyse the rate of combustion and state other factors likely to affect the rate of combustion of a particular fuel. |
Useless associations that add no value. Africa likes giving Nigeria this kind of leadership role so that Nigeria will use her resources to fund the inconsequential associations. I am sure Nigeria's resources will be used to run the association without any commensurate benefit to the country |
Even in saner clime!!! ![]() |
I see where the pain is coming from. El Rufai must have felt bitter and used. Tinubu knew why he dropped him BAT likes royalty and he did not see that in El rufai, despite his much touted help towards making Tinubu's presidency a reality. Like him or hate him, BAT get guts. For him to drop El rufai, BAT saw that the man was already a spent force and could not be of help again to him. |
Scholz seems eager to leave the stage. He is simply tired and the fear of working with Trump is unnerving. He was low on the ranking going into the polls. Trump never liked the guy and he was rooting for his exit. Trump would have loved the far right party, Alternative for Germany to win. But since AFD didn't win, he would be happy with CDU"s Merz to take over. |
She get mind. ![]() |
Wike is not shifting ground. He is not ready to back down for Atiku. I am surprised at Wike's boldness. No politician from the South has been this bold to challenge a powerful northern establishment. The man isn't backing down anytime soon for PDP. He would destroy the party within and ensure that the party is not united as the build up towards 2027 gathers momentum. Those thinking that BAT would loose the 2027 general elections should check their thinking faculties again. |
Originalsly:I didn't try anything, knowing fully well how some Nigerians behaves and her family members that came to hospital to see her. If I had followed up, they would be "milking " me on regular basis. They called me for money for a follow up check in another hospital and I sent. They did same for the second time, I sent. On the third time, I told them to bring her to the former hospital that I took her to, that treated and discharged her, they refused and I quietly blocked them. I told the Physio that treated her about the calls from her family and he told me nothing serious and that she would recover without any further treatment. He gave me a copy of her discharge by the hospital. Don't ever have case with people that would use you as an ATM. Lots of people are hungry in Nigeria and if they perceived you as being able to put food on the table, you would be their "maga" |
seuncyrus:It didn't work out - I moved on and she did. |
Similar thing almost happened to me in 2012. My "stubborn" girl didn't hear word. I would go and pick her on Saturdays from where she was doing computer training. On our way back to my house, she would insist on driving the car and I would stupidly be guiding her. On that fateful day, she lost control and hit an "agbo-jedi" Seller that was walking on her own. The lady fell on the road with her load scattered everywhere. Thank God, the incident happened within my area and most people recognised me and offered assistance. I took the injured lady to the hospital and paid for all the wares she had on her pan. It was a very bitter experience. To tell you how funny some people are, her family even wanted to " cashout" from me, despite my treatment of the girl in a highly rated hospital and huge compensation for loss of her goods. The goods didn't even miss as passers-by gently picked everything on the road, except the one inside bottle that got shattered. |
Revealpanda:I feel sorry for you. So, sex discrimination is the same as rape ![]() The so called woman had nothing to pin against the man and used sex discrimination as her only line to sue the man, knowing how biased the UK court and system is towards the male gender. |
I don't know why some ignorant people mentioned banking. As a young graduate, if you enter the banking system as a full time staff in a good department like treasury, financial control, corporate audit, internal services, corporate affairs, investors relations, legal, human capital, investment banking, private banking or within the office of the group managing director, you are already on the part of career success. It's left for you to learn as much as possible within those units and continue to develop and deepen your capabilities. The pay is equally sufficient to cater for your needs and if you are good with money and rises through the ranks in your organisation, you should be able to build your house, get a good car and live a decent life, far above the average life in Nigeria. From there, opportunities could be opened for you in other sectors when you must have spent 7 to 10 years in the banking, learning and developing your self. |
Their stupid followers will start defending their masters. Leave these politicians alone. They are only interested in elections. Who is El rufai threatening? Tinubu? He is not serious. Nothing will stop Tinubu in 2027 except himself. If you think that Tinubu will lose 2027 election as a sitting president, you are day dreaming. Jonathan was a one off event which will never happen again |
Read his message carefully; Soludo has promised him the APGA ticket in 2029, after Soludo must have done his second tenure. Ozigbo is aware that unseating Soludo in the governorship election would be extremely difficult. It would be better for him to wait and take the APGA ticket in 2029 than to contest now and loose woefully. Soludo did the same during his own time. He left PDP to wait for the APGA ticket, which he clinched and went on to win. |
Was the man sleeping for the wife to have cut off the penis? Do you know the efforts and time required to hold a prick and cut it off. The man must have been on ogogoro for the wife to have done the cutting. ![]() |
Tech is getting to saturation point - it has gotten to saturation point in Nigeria and it is about to become surplus in the western world, except if you possess an exceptionally cognitive ability and skills in the emerging tech world like AI and Precision science and engineering. Even at that, the competition is stiff as those areas doesn't require much human to work in that space. I had to advice someone that completed a program in automation in Canada to move to Practical nursing. I am glad he did and he is completing his 2 - year diploma in Practical nursing and currently have a job in a Youth shelter home as a support worker. While doing his automation program, he never got any job as a student and was becoming frustrated. He still did not get job when he finished the Automation program. If you intend to study abroad, go for programs with job prospects instead of those with beautiful names without any prospect of securing job in a typically white - dominated sector. |
If you an illegal immigrant, start looking for jobs in very rural black communities, where there are no ICE police. These are what lots of people have done. They relocated to communities far removed from cities and urban centres. Some illegal immigrants have lived in rural communities for decades without being noticed by the law enforcement agency. |
Many Nigerian students abroad send their assignments to Nigerians in Nigeria to do the assignments at a fee for them. Lots of Nigerians are online assignment doers and they "earn" their living by advertising their "services" online for willing buyers. Many ladies studying abroad have guys back home that are doing assignments, term papers and projects. In abroad, assignments, seminars, term papers and projects constitutes up 70% of total assessment for some courses abroad |
This doesn't look like an official letter from the University. This is more like a public court decision on her. She has been convicted already by the social media and I expect the panel that was set up to examine the case to follow the same social media decision. ![]() |
LP was a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) used by PBAT in 2023 to get to power. Sadly, the supporters will never know this. By 2027, no LP member in chamber will remain. ![]() |
The lecturer should have simply walked away. Nigerian University lecturers behaves like demigod, with absolute no regards for students. They treat students as if they do not exist. The girl may have her own issues but the lecturer looked for trouble. We are too ill-mannered in this country and lacks simple courtesy. Nothing stops the lecturer from being a little civil when he was passing the hallway instead of the way he reacted toward the girl. People that are taking selfies are always oblivious of certain thing happening around them. You will be occupied with your video and selfies to notice any incoming person. This is the reason why people have accidents or meet their death while videoing or taking selfies. The girl will definitely come out "unscathed" as long as mum is a lecturer in the school. |
Not my kind of design. I fancy simplicity and minimalist design. Plain white screeded wall plus a a well made simple bench and flower cups. That's all ![]() |
Una no dey hear word. Fayemi, the former governor of Ekiti, had told you people the truth. Politicians fight for entertainment, strategic intentions and for social media. The Tinubu and El rufai issues are no different. Don't be surprised that Tinubu is positioning that man to take over from him. Tinubu and Buhari presented a "fighting " scenario to Nigerians before the election - what happened later? The same Buhari willingly handed power to Tinubu. By 2031, the same Elrufai must have garnered sympathy from the north and other parts of the country on account of his fake quarrel with Tinubu and snatch the APC nomination and ultimately, the presidency. The APC government and party will keep antagonising him and making him popular. These are all deliberate intentions to make Elrufai a victim of circumstances. Don't be deceived by any intention of Elrufai to form alliance with the opposition. He will deceive the opposition and still remain in APC. You see Buhari, Tinubu and Elrufai, they decided the leadership of Nigeria in 2015. |
Trump never liked that Zelensky guy. Trump called him the best "salesman" in the world. |
Don't pray to find yourself in poverty or want. Poverty debases and abuses the mind. Poverty, illiteracy and ignorance are deadly combination. |
HIV Antiviral drugs will get to N2m soon. Do yourself good and avoid getting HIV. There will not be anymore subsized drugs. |
