So, my 7 year old child recently had his British passport mailed to him in Nigeria. He now has a flight to UK coming up.
My question is, will he be allowed to board as he doesn't possess a Nigerian passport? Please, note that I paid the airline for chaperone service. I would really appreciate answers from immigration guys or frequent travellers.
Thanks all.
What stopped you from processing Nigeria passport for him while processing the UK passport
He is a dual citizen and supposed to have a Nigeria passport
Well, in the absence of that, be ready to get VISA for him in that UK passport anytime he is coming to Nigeria
hussey1149: you are right ma even us has tought that also but is still the same we don't have anything at hand right now to say we are going to pay for a new house that is the problem
Is alright, miracle worker will do wonders for your family
hussey1149: our landlord has been disturbing us for house rent since last month january when we are supposed to pay for the house rent but things has been very difficult for us the little we earn from the little business am doing with my husband is not enough we are using it on feeding and right now the landlord has giving us ending of this month to park out of the house if we didn't pay.we went to the bank for a loan but we are not eligible we have done everything we could but nothing seem to work out,ever since someone help me out from this place to start a business we are doing now I have never come back here to complain about anything because from the help he render to us we appreciate it alot and we have been doing so well from it till this house rent issues come up and I have no other choice than to come back here and seek for a help tnkz
Isn't it time you guys get an accommodation that fits your budget
I am saying this because, next year rent will likely go up and so on
I know that things are hard but we must fashion a way of solving our personal problems and adjusting to the economic situation
POSmecrhant: I have a self contained Flat that's giving me 165k every year. But I want to sell the place to invest in business that will give me 120k to 150k every month, because I'm married now, responsiblites will spring up. and dont want to depend fully on 180k salary.
Could this be good or bad idea?
I don't think it's a good idea, for now, that's the only property you have and am sure you inherited it
Why not slash those things that are triggering your expenses to keep going up
If you insist, sell it, buy your own land and build your own house then use the rest and establish a business, so that if by tomorrow you want to pack out of your present abode, then you are moving to your own house
Please I need professional advice on which to go for. All praises to God, my wife is heavily pregnant with twins. From the last scan the babies are weighing 2.7kg and 2.4kg respectively. That's quite big for babies that are 7 months. And the expected period of delivery is between April ending and early May. Which means they may still grow bigger with time.
So I'm sincerely concerned about the safety of my wife and the babies, especially my wife coz her belly is so big that people are wondering why she hasn't put to bed yet. Although, she's very healthy and seems less bothered. But I'm not finding it easy here. I want to know if Cesarian Section is a better option for delivering the babies or should we have the natural one instead.
Please, doctors, health professionals and experienced mothers in the house, let me learn from you. Thanks
Congratulations in advance for her safe delivery The doctor is in the best position to determine her mode of delivery after the Doctor must have accessed her cervix to know if it's upto the standard medical size for delivery, usually it's done through scan, though some Doctors do put their hands right inside the birth canal and size it up
But am quite sure she will have a safe delivery so far she won't be long in Labour and the babies are not in breech or sitting position in the womb
Axis313: This is the question I always ask myself,though some of them are widowed,but most of them are divorcees,and some as a result of premarital flings. And what makes it so disturbing is that the society have accepted it as a norm,something that was seen as abomination 40,50 years ago.
Because marriage is not for everyone Every single mother has a single father some where
Chijeep: AM NEWLY HAPPILY MARRIED: My wife can't wash I bought washing machine. My wife can't cook n I employed a cook. My wife can't sweep n I employed a house maid. My wife can't pound yam n I bought pounder. My wife can't drive n I employed a Driver. Pls Am I really a caring husband or a Simp
November24: Good day Daddies and mummies. I am a Northern woman, met my Igbo husband during my NYSC days at Nccf. We have been married over 5 years now.
He's a good man, works and earn good money, now my problem is this man always ties wrapper in the house o. Educated man o, earns over 500k monthly, but this mentality is something else. Not that I'm angry,
but I just want him on boxers while in the house. But he will just be laughing at me, this was same man that told me he don't like ladies tying wrapper in the house, so this morning, I tied it like him, he just burst into laughter, infact, both of us were laughing at ourselves. How can a 33 years old man like wrapper like zobo?
This is not because he's Igbo,because his younger brother and wife told me to carry my cross,that he has been like that, in fact,they tease us with this.
He laughs at me when I correct him, last week my sister in law bought me a wedding wrapper, guess what, came back from work I met my husband tying it.
Pls will he change with time, is there any idea I can get to change my Daddy! Thanks.
Cc: RoyalRoy
Don't get worried about it he is a native and traditional man. He must have learnt that from his dady or stayed around those who tied wrappers while growing up especially the elders
They do so to fell free down there
Well he may not stop it but it will be controlled
Get enough boxers for him and just take the wrapper away from his eyes
Very soon he will tier towel, if it's larger enough to go round his waste
Nedangel: So I posted earlier about having strong feelings for my house maid. And a lot of Nairalanders poured in their views.
Well, as usual on this day. My wife travelled and my maid and I was alone at home. So I went to her room, talked to her about her future and so on. But I could not do anything with her. I just thought and took her as my child and daughter.. I removed the thought of anything I felt before.
Thanks everyone for ur views and thought, it really helped..
I realy appreciate your ability to resist that temptation Keep it up, self discipline and respect is one of the things a man needs to keep moving
Streetmalam: Where have I gone wrong? We are 3 sisters all orphan both mum and dad gone, I and my last born was brought up by grand ma. At some point I realized that grandma is getting old I have grown up and able to hustle to support grandma so I moved to Lagos left behind my last born with grand ma and the one after me went to be with a family member in calaba. Am 24, second 21 last is 19 I start hustling to help pay fees for that last born and at a point my second sister had to come to Lagos because I was able to get a place to stay with my guy so she came to be with my mother's brother that I was living with before. They only got her accommodation all other expenses are on me clothing, pocket money,skill aquisition fee and damages (tailoring) in short I was there like a mother just to make our life won't be as worst. After she graduated form learning she stayed back at her boss fashion design shop and don't get paid so I fought with her to look for a job with her skills at start doing at least it may either be a daily, weekly or monthly payment but something will be coming in for her too in order to reduce my expenses on her and fortunately WE got one 50k per month at the age 21 isn't it enough? At first I got pregnant for my guy and I told my sister she acted like it's non of her business and never congrats me or my guy. I was into POS and after 6months in her employment my employee made a way with my money worth 350k and I got broke. And my guy just left his old job for a new one and things where not really in line for me and my I looked around to see if I can get help or loan to restart my business but all efforts falls in vain so I turn to my own blood sis to request 50k to add to my capacity to start up with something she turned me down saying she didn't have anything to afford after 6month of 50k per month and ever since then she refused to pick my calls even with the intentions calling to know how she's doing she desists from picking my calls.
Your opinion pls I didn't offend her in anyways and I have asked her on several meetings to know what her problem is but she always says nothing to me.
If possible stop requesting from her Some people don't want to help for reasons best known to them
Just keep moving and believe God for divine favour
Wilson300: My name is grey I’m 20 years old I don’t know what kind of genetic build up I have.seen my dad dicks a couple of times he is up to 10 inches while I’m barely 5inches my girth is nothing to write home about I’m so depressed right now just had sex with a girl today she didn’t even make a throaty sound what can I do please someone should assist me
Don't blame yourself, Pls nature has done its own Just start dating a Virgin and try to handle her well before penetration
Kobojunkie: So what you are saying right here now is if you has a daughter of marriage age, you would recommend her as wife for this man who is on the verge of what is a mental breakdown?
You actually believe that a daughter of yours can cure this man of what seems clinical depression, and sleep deprivation or even a full blown sleep disorder?.
Yes she can, but we need someone from your family, probably your biological sister so that you can monitor their progress
Fahdiga: And he didn't bother to ask her how she raised the money used in buying the phone. Tommorow when yahoo guys use her to arrange things now the father will be shouting people are wicked
Stop it naw, women are more responsible and committed to the family, be it her father or husband families
Phoneworld: I also want to have a child of my own, i wish of this everyday but I can’t train one for now because am not financially okay, but if i see a lady (45 below) who is ready to take in and take care of the child like i will, then i see no big deal, but u will let me see him once in a while, i will be happy with that, once i am financially stable i will do my part as a father to my child, if u want marriage, fine, if not, fine, i am 30 years of age, 6ft tall, i love to cook, i may not be perfect but i really like to cook, i am trying to push my self in school, i am in my final year, which i will be finishing in April, i am currently studying industrial engineering.
We are going to leave this world one day and the goal is to be happy always, age is just a number, everyone are in search of rest of mind, is not all men that are the same likewise women.
You can send me a mail, go to my profile Please no insult..
Am not a gold digger, but just want a better life for the unborn and also be a happy father..
Why are you in a hurry to birth a child and hope the mother will take care of the child till you are capable of such
This looks like gambling
Find your feet first and then think of how to make a home
A man's responsibilities over a child, starts from the very moment his woman becomes pregnant, so how do you want to have a sense of belonging on that child and mother when you can barely feed yourself
Pls do the right thing first, find you bearing
Well you may be lucky to have one woman that will accept your wishes
But you are likely not going to have peace of mind
Women have the ability to care for a man or to make a man stable, just that the bad condition of the economy have made the good one's looks as if they have had intentions
If this guy can have a good woman who is willing to help the family in getting this guy ok, there will be a good difference in his life
She will provide the love and the family will provide the finance
That's the real truth
All she needs is the family support and financial back up
You can't be rehabilitating a depressed person with out money and love
SanctifiedSista: He needs a good woman to look after him and forget that his depression Someone that makes him laugh and massage his back at night, I would have recommended myself but am trying to build myself up financially to avoid being a burden to any man
I love the way you open up and your submission
But I pray you get a stable man who will love to have you around him
Kobojunkie: A good woman will look after him how exactly? A "good" woman to make him laugh and massage his back... this is your plan to end depression and make sleep problems go away?
This advice here is no wonder some Nigerian men believe women to be the reason why they die young. There heads are filled with lies about how a good woman can make magic automagically happen to them and they fall for the foolishness too. However, when the "good" woman fails to deliver on the promise, the men turn their angst against the woman.
Op, please tell your friend to stay away from the so called "good" women until he has his condition under control abeg!
You are wrong, a good woman can turn that man around for good

MsJackson: Hello guys. Straight to the topic. In my eight years of marriage, he has never taken me out. I look good and dress well, i even have toasters outside. I am very faithful to him. I actually envy couples that go to outing, take pictures, create memories with their loved ones, but his own is different. Whenever i bring it up, he starts talking about this responsibility and the other one. I even told him that we should add money together just incase he doesnt have much, but he refused. I want to experience it and also want my 5 year old daughter to experience it too but she has never. He promised me that if i take in, he would take me out. It happened and he gave excuses until i forgot it. He then said wen i put to bed, we will go out. We never did. Even we dont celebrate anniversary because he doesnt want to spend anything. Na by force i dey take buy pepper meat and drink bitter just to mark the day. There was a day his friend offered to take me out in his presence. He didnt say anything. When it was almost evening time and I reminded the friend, if u see the way my husband shouted that i was long throat and that its ojukokoro that will kill me. I was so embarrassed. Now we are not on talking terms since yesterday because I reminded him about this outing issue, he said that with me, he knows he will never progress because I was an enemy of progress. Please i am dying of boredom and I cant go out with another man because he will get angry. Please is this stinginess or wat? PS : he dishes soup for me because he counts meat in the pot. I dont steal meat ooo
Your husband doesn't fancyyany thing called social outing, just erase that from uoir mind
If you want an outing give it yourself
Am sure you are not working yet that's why you have time to look for outing
Get some thing doing and you will be able to go out almost every day
That alone will occupy your minds
Another thing, if he is the only one financing the family expenses just let him be
My husband is a good and dedicated Physiotherapist, though he has not been so long into the profession. He manages himself now with private practice by treating people in their homes and offering his services to clinics and hospitals who need his services on agreed amount to be paid him as he is yet to get a well paying job in a hospital . He recently got a call from one doctor who owns a clinic around his area for treatment of a patient with physiotherapy case. It was agreed between him and the doctor that he will be paid 5k each day for three times in a week.
On the first day of work, my husband arrived and began treatment. The doctor entered and began asking series of questions about the processes and procedures. After about 20mins, my husband told him that he would like to be given some privacy and concentrate on his patient as he was being distracted. The doctor refused, my husband refused answering further questions; this angered the man. When he was done with the treatment, he requested for his money and the doctor refused.
And argument ensued. He told my husband to leave the hospital, my husband said its until he receives his payment for workdone. He began pushing my husband away and a fight began, he bite my husband in several places. They were later separated. My husband went and treated himself and proceeded to report the case to the police station. The doctor went and reported too.
Note: Some Doctors ask the Physiotherapists these questions while treatment is ongoing because they want to treat the patients themselves and they don't know about Physiotherapy. They end up getting a physiotherapist and after few sessions, they dismiss them with hope that they have learnt, all because of greed. They end up doing a bad job and the patients case keep getting worse. I told my husband to forget all about it and he said Never, that he worked for it and deserves his pay. I told him i know but justice is hardly gotten in this country.
Note: we recently got married and don't reside in same state because I have a business here and I'm heavily pregnant, i will join him as soon as I get a shop in his location. This case is taking a toll on my bp and I'm so worried. please what can we do? Any other options? Thank you good people.
Mods, please help a worried pregnant woman and her husband.
Thank you.
He should just consider that service as a burnt offering
Its one of those stupid things one comes across doing thier jobs
You on your own side, you are kit the one involved though he is your husband, remove your mind and just be listening to what he tells you about them, you weren't realy their when it happened so, they will definitely sort themselves out
Your health is your priority for now
Men ha e ways of sorting themselves out, especially in their own profession
I work as a security officer in a community, I usually work from 7:00am - 3pm in a secondary school, and also resume night duty by 7pm in a community close to my house The landlord association gave us a warning that we must check all cars coming in and going out of the estate and we have been performing our duties in a polite way.. About 11:35pm last night, we heard the horn of a strange car requesting that we should open the gate, I switch on my touch to check those inside the car, it was three abled young men and lady inside the car, in a polite way I ask them where they are heading to and they mentioned a popular rich man in the community, as usual, I told them to open the booth of there car which they refused to open, I told them to drive back to where they are coming from but before I could know what's happening,. They got down from the car and threathing to deal with us if the gate is not opened...they forced the gate open and drove inside the community,my colleague we're just watching the whole scenario as I drag issues with them... I don't know the report they gave the chairman of the landlords association, they just got to our checkpoint this morning and told me I have been fired without paying me off, I told them I haven't done anything wrong and was just carrying out my duties,I was told never to come close to the area again or else I will be arrested. I left there in annoyance, I was only carrying out my duties but now I have been Sacked for carrying out order... I don't know what this country is turning to again...
Those guys may be high on some things and they feel you insulted them
Why not meet a member if the community who is close to the chairman and explain what happened to them and if possible apologise to them if you have done wrong in the cause of doing your work
I worked in one of the financial institution in the country, sometimes last year I was promoted to head the department at zonal level, (good News right). here is the problem and challenges I have been facing on the job, I have almost six superior that are above me in terms of ranks, but I was made to supervise them. this superior don't send their report to me or seek my opinion on anything.
I know they are not happy with me. my regional manager on sensing that this may be a problem recommended that I should be promoted ahead of all my superior yet our management is not saying anything about the recommendation of my regional manager.
most of this superior lobbied for this position but I was picked because of my ability's to deliver on the job.
experience peeps how do I handle a situation where I am supervising my superior yet they are not reporting to me or can I issue queries to them.
You are already a superior to your seniors in the job
What you need now is wisdom
They are not happy and cab set you up with out notice
Just manage them the way you can manage bad friends Ignore any attempt from them to pull you down Don't query them
They are not ready to report to you, so if they don't report to you, ignore that part until your own immediate boss observes that by himself
Don't do the mistake of reporting them to any one
The will finally be the one to report themselves
But if you can't cope, you can seek a transfer so far you can still perform the same task another place
As it is now, your job safety and life is the most important thing for you
