Use your sister's own. Swear an affidavit showing proof of relationship, present birth certs showing parental linkage. Then your sister also has to do a letter offering to provide full or partial sponsorship for you throughout your program.

You may also have your family move funds from your family account to yours, with your family members writing a letter offering it as a gift.

So, you present both statements of accounts with a spreadsheet explaining all credits and debits from a minimum of 100k. Add that spreadsheet to your submission.

Best of luck

Guys, I need some advise.

I have two options for sponsorship, my family account and my sister.
Both have enough funds to cover my expenses but I don't know which will be better to show or if I should use both.
The family account is in Naira and has the name of three of my eldest siblings (but all ending with the same surname) while my sister's account is in USD (she lives in America)

Hi, no transit visa is required if one has a 'D' Visa from Ireland which is a long-stay visa. Once one receives the IRP card, also, no need for a transit visa via London Heathrow.

purplish:


Thanks Louis. I was okay to board with my vaccination card and I arrived safe in Waterford. Please can you confirm if you needed a UK visa to transit through London to Dublin? Or an Irish visa suffices? Wondering because of Brexit

By the way, George was not able to find something suitable for me unfortunately. I am in a temporary room for now and will look to get something more appropriate when I settle.

Thanks again!

You need to clearly detail the funds in your account available to you as at the date of your appeal.

Funds before payment of fees and funds after fees.

You have to clearly show you have both your fees and your living expenses (min of €10k) sorted.

I was refused as well but sorted it out with a good appeal letter.

Good luck

You don't need to have accommodation before the visa app...or is that a new requirement?

You need to eventually have a real location...if you use your school, I'm not sure you can live there so they need to be sure you ain't sleeping on the sleep of Ireland.

Hi everyone please for the bank statements are the ones generated via the bank’s application acceptable? And must they be accompanied by a bank reference?

I believe the bank statements have to be stamped by the bank - I think it is only Fidelity Bank that provides an electronic stamped statement.

I do not believe Ireland requires a bank reference for their statements.

Please if you can, do and attach a spreadsheet that clearly explains amounts from 200k and above (credit and debit) on your account...it is very important.

Hi everyone,

My visa was denied with the option to appeal and i'm about doing that. One of the reasons is "no ties in Nigeria" and truly i have nothing bringing me back to naija but i had to find , so my question is will my uncle offering me a job in his law firm for when i'm done with school convince them? Thanks.

URGENT PLEASE!

Try going through this if you can figure out one or 2 things that you can use to back up your ties to Nigeria. It has to have solid back up so think critically.

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately, I'm making my travel arrangements. Again, I want to ask if you used the university's address and phone number when completing the locator form. Are you studying at UL?

No - I am in Dublin.

At the time, I secured accommodation, prior to arrival...so that was what was used the PLF.

If your school is handling your movements, then you'd be heading directly to Limerick once you arrive Dublin Airport. Buses move straight to Limerick from there.

I think it's best to put the address of where you will be staying. No need to mention that it's a friend's. It might get too complicated and the IO will start to talk plenty

Thanks for your reply. So a situation where I haven’t been vaccinated and would need to quarantine for 14 days, and as regards my previous question on staying at a friend’s when I arrive, will it be fine to put my friend’s address on the passenger locator form and if I’m asked, would it be alright to mention that I’ll be staying at a friend’s.

Crime / Edo Group Calls For Regional Security Outfit In South South by Geezle(m): 1:10am On Feb 11, 2021
A social-cultural organization, the HeartBeat Professionals Association, has called on the governors in the south-south region to set up realistic modalities urgently to address the recent hostilities across the region. The group made the appeal yesterday in a communique signed by its President Mr Ikponmwosa Egharevba.

The statement read “In view of the recent hostility across the South-South in relation to the herdsmen and farmers issue, it is now imminent for the 6 South-South governors to jointly provide a workable solution such as the creation of a vigilante security network comparable to the South-West ‘Amotekun’ and the South-East ‘Eastern Security Network’.

To restore peace and tranquility to the region, the South-South Vigilante will partner with other security forces. This has become imperative due to recent developments in most Edo forests and federal roads leading to the other southern states, where many people are killed, raped, and kidnapped for ransom. “It is crucial that the south-south governors respond quickly to this growing security challenge in the region by leveraging on their cordial relationships to build a long-term solution to the current challenges facing the region and Nigeria as a whole."

Good day, my 2007 Acura TL engine is not circulating oil and the mechanic suggests that the engine should be replaced.

I bought it Nigerian used and the engine has been opened before by the previous owner's mechanic.

There's a lot of knocking sounds coming from the right of the engine area.

I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience - do I really need to replace the engine?

Any leads to an engine seller in Oyingbo or Ladipo?
Health / Re: Covid-19: NCDC's Questionable Mission in Kogi by Geezle(m): 4:25pm On May 12, 2020
No wahala...until people start dying just like Yobe and Kano.

You want to isolate NCDC staff who came to work...14 days doing nothing.

Worst that the Kogi state government could have done is to test them or ask them to test themselves.

The end will tell.

Blogsphere:
Before the Chinese authority owned up to the outbreak of coronavirus pandemic in Wuhan, China, the world did not realize that a major health crisis that would quake the entire mankind was in the offing.

The Covid-19, as the World Health Organization (WHO), termed it, rose from a minor outbreak of respiratory cum cough-related disease to a pandemic that is ravaging the world, today.

The world has been literally brought to its knees by this invincible enemy. As at last count, 9th of May, 2020, global confirmed cases stood at 3.9 million, while fatalities were recorded as 276,000.

The world being a global village, covid-19, sooner than later, berthed at the shores of Nigeria on 27th February, 2020.

An Italian citizen who came into the country from Milan, was the carrier. Since then, Coronavirus pandemic has registered its footprint on almost all the states including the FCT, except Kogi and Cross River States, respectively. As at 8th of May, 2020, Nigeria had recorded 3,912 confirmed cases; 679 discharged and, sadly, total of 117 deaths. Of an approximate population of 200 million people, NCDC has been able to test only 25,000 Nigerians.

I have the habit of watching daily media briefing of the Presidential Task Force on Covid-19. I must commend the Task Force and all the medical practitioners on the front line of this war against coronavirus. In one of the Presidential Task Force's updates, Director-General of NCDC, Dr. Chikwe Ihekweazu made a statement that rattled me.

He alluded to the fact that covid-19 would get to every state in Nigeria and urged the state governments to prepare for the eventuality. Initially, the statement came to me as precautionary, but Dr. Ihekweazu's body language as he made the shocking projection, left me in utter bewilderment.

He left the impression of certainty that the virus would reach every nook and cranny of the country. I paused and asked myself: who is NCDC working for? Are they working to curtail the virus or spread it? If indeed they're working to arrest the spread of covid-19 in the country, why was the NCDC DG so sure that it would get to every state? When I saw in the news that NCDC had a disagreement with the Cross River governor on the issue of not submitting enough samples for testing, I did not take it seriously. Then came Kogi State.

From the information out in the public, NCDC is literally mounting pressure on the Kogi State Government to submit samples of suspected coronavirus patients for testing. The big question here is: why is NCDC having a running battle with the only two states that are yet to confirm any case? When juxtaposed with the insensitive statement of NCDC's DG that covid-19 would get to every state of the federation, I can conclude without the error of assumption, that NCDC is in a hurry to register covid-19 cases for Kogi State. Do the agency want to manufacture fictitious cases for Kogi State?

NCDC alleged that they sent their officials to Lokoja to help the state government in verifying suspected cases to be considered for testing. But Kogi State is yet to ask for such assistance. The state government has categorically affirmed that there has not been any case satisfied to be forwarded to NCDC for testing. Why is NCDC crying more than the bereaved? With the suspicious moves of the agency, how are we sure that it will not be biased against the state to record any sample sent to it for testing, as positive?

Why is an agency that is visibly overwhelmed by the samples sent to it for testing, to the extent that some states wait for two to three days before getting feedback on their samples, be so much obsessed with a state like Kogi that is yet to forward sample to them for testing? When NCDC officials arrived Kogi to "assist" the state government, the governor, being suspicious of their activities in the Confluence State, insisted that the officials should be isolated for 14 days to ascertain their status regarding covid-19. The officials of NCDC returned to Abuja with the prejudiced message that Governor Yahaya Bello turned down the help they offered—while there was no need for the so-called help in the first place.

Do you offer to help a state that has not called for it? Has Kogi told NCDC that people are falling dead on the streets of Lokoja as a result of covid-19? Do you commiserate with someone that is not bereaved? It becomes hilarious and ridiculous when the same agency has shown high level of incapacitation and incompetence when it comes to meeting its responsibilities to terrified Nigerians at a time of crisis of this magnitude. NCDC fans itself in self-praise of testing 25,000 Nigerians in the last three months, while its counterpart in South Africa has tested over 100,000 within the same period. It should face its business of scaling up its testing capacity and leave Kogi State alone.

Is it a coincidence that the number of confirmed cases in the country skyrocketed when Nigerians were locked down in their homes. You lockdown Nigerians for more than one month without massive testing? As at 8th of May, 2020, out of over 25,000 tested persons, 3,912 cases were confirmed; 679 discharged and 117 deaths. Is this a result to be proud of, for a big nation like ours? Juxtapose the total number of discharged covid-19 cases with the number of deaths and it is clear that we are not doing well at all, yet NCDC had the luxury to be dancing ‘zanku’ leg work in Kogi State, in search of a non-existent covid-19 case, when lives are being lost at an alarming rate in other parts of Nigeria.

I stand with Governor Yahaya Bello for standing firm in the face of pressure from the agency to record cases for the state, while the state government continue to step up its precautionary measures against this pandemic, our ultimate goal and prayer, is that covid-19 does not get to the state. If it eventually comes, it should be real not fictitious. The mischievous actions of NCDC officials, is what is fueling the falsehood cum conspiracy theory in the minds of some people, that there is no coronavirus in the country. How do you explain to a lay man in the street the rational behind NCDC complain that states like Kogi are not sending in enough samples for testing, when the need has not arisen. NCDC should stop its questionable mission in Kogi.
