Should they go on strike at this time, it is going to be a big shame on them. They could have chosen not to resume than keep risking the lives of students making them travel when they know their demands are yet to be met.

You dey crase ooh,like you are mad,I mean you dey gbongbolo cigar

Wonder how this seems like sarcasm cos it seems that is what you wanted to achieve. Anyways, I have given my suggestion.

If she's suggesting you guys not traveling for spiritual reasons and you believe it, discuss with the father to see if there's any other location he's comfortable with besides the village for the traditional marriage to hold if you want it.
As for Court, you can do that whenever you want it. It is for you and your fiancée to decide on that.

I wouldn't have anything to do with a lady that wears waist beads because I do not see the need. I am quite conservative and same as my family of orientation and that is the sole reason.

Trying to understand what you expect to read from the public you brought this news to. When were these chats besides the one she sent to the ex? Are they all within the marriage? If yes, you may want to keep her because you love her and if that is the case, I will suggest you both go for counselling and therapy as she might just be entertaining them in chats and not know it is so wrong to do such.

She is in my house currently...

I no be mumu na

Trying to think of what makes you wise. You met someone in a week and she moved into your house. You don't know her parents, no information about her health record, her lifestyle/friends etc, yet you are professing you ni be mumu. Oga abeg, wake up smell the coffee.

I swear. It is as if McD is the only employer of labor.

Sometimes, I feel people just recite what they read and not what is true just to make a point.

How is Nigeria nearing it's ruin to be honest? Gun violence and kidnapping happen in USA everyday. But you won't talk about that due to White worshipping..but you people wish bad things happen to Nigeria and her people everyday so you'll be able to justify your Japa and tell them "we warned you". Why can't you people Just accept the fact that not everyone want to come And live a lonely and boring life abroad Just because of 24hrs light which you pay for with your nose anyways , and McDonald Job of $1500 per month. The money you earn over there doesn't even find you that boost until you convert it to naira in your head just to validate yourself and say ",I'm earning more than a professor in Nigeria". This is a trend I see Among you people.

And you can call me broke because I live in Nigeria. Since you can't even know whether I'm more satisfied and contented with my life or not

Thanks

It is amusing how many of you only know those who works with McDonalds.

Can you Adjust your Status when in the US?
Yes, it’s legal if you can satisfy the conditions. A lot of people can’t or do not, they become stuck, working in the shadows and making tons of money. Once they think they have made enough, they leave the US and won’t be able to return. They don’t care about this. CBN fiasco with FX also helps them.

A former neighbor has been sending $1000 a month to Nigeria for like 3 years now, and banking in USD. She doesn’t have papers. She is not married both in the US and before leaving Nigeria.

If CBP annotates your stamped I-94 with No AOS or No EOS, you wont be able to adjust your status as Flourishing247 stated. Even if you decide to get married, you MAY be required to exit the US and sort spousal visa from your home country.
Most I-94 don’t come with annotations, hence the “happening daily”.

With respect to school, the current law (from Trump era) requires you to leave the US within 60 days of completing your studies. Only condition to remain or get papers as you state it is to get a job and the company files for you. If that doesn’t happen, you join the shadow population.
A lot of people travelled recently are in the US as students which permits them to live, get SSN, work (20hrs weekly max). When they complete their programs, you’d not be told the schemes they do to remain in the US.
2017/2018 travels fell before Trump Executive Orders that Biden hasn’t removed completely. Some parts of it are still in effect.

Getting married to a USC is the plan most Nigerians use in circumventing their legal presence in the US.
Is it illegal to get married?
No.

Enrolling in school after getting married is also used to deepen their presence in the US. Some buy homes with a mortgage to deepen it and help their profile or case with USCIS when they file.

The bolded isn't totally right. You have 60days from your date of graduation to file OPT otherwise you will need to leave the country. Once your OPT is approved, you have 90days to secure a job or a volunteering position to keep your OPT active for the initial one year. If it is a stem course, your employer can file an OPT extension on your behalf and upon approval, you get additional 2years to work in an OPT field. If you lose your job within the time frame, you have 60days plus whatever is left of the initial 90days grace period to get a job otherwise, you leave the country.

If you want to stay longer, your options are either you get a company to file H1B or EB1 for you or you could self-petition for the EB2 if you meet the criteria.

There are many legal paths to follow to stay back in the US however, many follow other routes such as marriage either because they do not want to follow the long process, they fell in love genuinely, or their initial intent was to run away from their home country.

I can only speak on what I'm � sure of.

Some visas come with a clause attached to it. You can never change status if you are on US soil.
If by chance you get an admission, then you have to come back for interview. You can't even marry a citizen while in the US hoping for a change of status. It still will not work.

I have seen such attachments with my two koro koro eyes. Someone once posted it here too.

A lot of things changed in the last 5years. People shouldn't take risks that won't favour them.

Is it the visa that stated one can't change status or the stamp by the officer at the point of entry?

ghettonews:
Pls who knows how long converting a b1/b2 visa to F1 in USA takes now as of 2022?

About 16 - 18months if you are not willing to travel out of the country for a visa interview.

BuddhaPalm:
It's the same even in the US.

Big man case dey get better attention from law enforcement.

The national guard (read Military) was quickly sent in to remove illegal immigrants from Martha's Vinyard.

Pelosi's husband was recently attacked in their home (perhaps by his gay lover). The FBI quickly took over the case from the police.

Both Hillary Clinton and Liz Truss should be in jail for handling classified information, but alas they are sacred cows.

There's a big difference oga. In the US, all cases are treated as important and although it might seem to be taking time, they are always working on it.

The country isn't getting any better yet, people are not willing to vote right.

Wish all cases were handled with this level of seriousness but alas, na we country where no one cares about the common men.

There are several temptations in that early days of the marriage starting from what transpired at the marriage reception.Also unnecessary financial investment may ruin the marriage too.on the spiritual side you will observe that there are some forces fighting against the marriage.The temptations are too numerous but with God on your side you shall prevail.

It is well. I guess the temptation never ends anyways although I am trying to think of what transpires at reception. Glad I skipped that because I wasn't ready for unnecessary dramas.

Never knew the state also has a campaign council this many.

I don't think it is wrong letting her know your ATM PIN. Let her know it except you don't trust her.

I truly love their tenacity. Nigerians are docile when it comes to their rights. Hopefully, this is a wake up call to us all that we can demand what rightly belongs to us. Agberos should go get jobs.

Richy4:
Some times it's difficult to be a Nigerian... A lot of them were programmed to be judgemental and myopic...

Their kind of narrow mindedness can only be equalled to that of the Pharisees according to the good book

I think it is a result of how we were raised coupled with the hypocrisy of our environment.

descarado:
Majority of them in uk are doing really bad. It is a well known secret. The ladies are very toxic. They are given custody of these kids most of the time. Their toxicity affects these kids cos they use them to get money from their ex, hate them cos of their ex and use them as revenge tool. I wouldn't be 2 miles closer to them cos they will bore you with stories of how bad men are forgeting you are married to one.

Majority doesn't make 99% and I'm guessing this majority are Nigerians. It doesn't mean every race are like that and one thing I have noticed is that the average person around me who is divorced still remains civil with the ex because of the kids and I feel it isn't that way many times with Nigerian divorce cases.

guobe:
If you have ever gotten married you will know that the first few months of the marriage is full of temptations.Your ability to withstand the pressure of the first few months makes you a man.

Just curious, what are these pressures?

Chinonye2022:
LP presidential candidate is from South chairman is from South campaign director is from South

What is the stance of LP on this constitutionally? Not sure they have theirs written in pen and paper unlike PDP.

Righthussle:
This guy really wants to be president after Buhari?

Because the South are political slaves to the North.

Honjoshy4u:
Well said by Mr. President Atiku Abubakar.
Wike should do his worst.
Ayu will resign after the election.
Say NO to muslim-muslim devilish insensitive ticket

Your own thoughts are more devilish. If Ayu isn't stepping down now, he wouldn't after the elections.

KingOfTheDamned:
It's not my fault you are a product of a single mum home
..

Stop crying on my comments

Unfortunately, you failed on this. It shows you lack reasoning if you think whoever questions your shallow thoughts were raised by single parents.

That said, there are enough kids raised by single parents that are doing great things and many raised by both parents whose lives are an eyesore.

So being myopic and if you need to put statistics, put one that is dependable and has a source and not just what your brain alone processes.

KingOfTheDamned:
Ben Carson was a one in a million chance... There is always the exception to the rule. 99% of single mother kids grow up to be wasted adults , criminals, addicts and deviants

Where are you getting your warped statistics from?

This is very unfortunate; however, I can't blame either of them because there must have been so much for the mother to concede to sex for a ticket in Heaven. I believe many accepted Christ based on their circumstance thus, they can be easily swayed by false teachers.

It was a set up by the Dad , to confront her toaster.
The way the write up is, I can see alot of people dont comprehend the story.

That is a very stupid set up. Everyone knows it is a set up the question is why try set him up? She no dey do na she no dey do, worst case don't pick his call. The father and the daughter had something up their sleeves too or why try set him up?

All three are crazy walahi! Why did she agree to meet him when she isn't interested, why did her father agree for her to meet him, and why on earth did he go to the date with her? I hope his soul finds rest with his creator.

The members of faculty pictured with him tells me it is no university from the US. The gowns are very appalling just like their dressing and posture. Most importantly, where was this confernment made?

What kind of statement is this? Or government officials sometimes joke too much or they are square pegs in round holes.

Trying to understand why people are cruising with the Adeleke's pains. Must every thoughts be shared a d who is the mod that brought this to front page?
