spikesC: Before you leave? I thought you're already in the UK

Nooo Na Friday,I had to work this month bro.

The best gift I will give my unborn kids is to make sure they an Eu or a US passport.

This country is a failed state.

For all those shouting Nigeria this Nigeria that.

When was the last time pipeborn water flowed through the pipes in your house?

When was the last time,you had an emergency and am ambulance attended to you? Even as a foreign student in the UK, if you have an emergency, the appropriate help will be dispatched to your location.

Mtn alone were virtually trolling me with text messages in Nigeria after I had called severally for them to stop to no avail


Nigeria is a joke abeg.

I'm crying oo. I can't continue with this ridiculous exchange rate by gtb Mastercard. Exchange rate officially is 269 but gtb charged me 274 today.

Please someone help me before they run me down!

SpikesC please where can I change all my maintenance fee before I leave?

majekdom2: oh , you dont ... it is not my level of satisfaction . I am aiming higher seeking something better .... but I dont have to run..and if everyone run, who will be left. my job can take me anywhere in the world.... after 2 years of being mentored.... I go for trainings already, am just one plus years gone. I don't have to run to somewhere where I would have to lick someone's a*rse to make a living.

How many Europeans, Americans or Asians do multinational oil companies send for training in Nigeria?

Ogbeni, you are smart but your arguments wack. Hope to see you at Nlng assessment centre

zendy: There was this Igbo guy I met in London last year. He is a German citizen. He told me that he first went to Germany on 3 months tourist Visa but decided to stay back and make something of his life. He told me that the day his Visa expired was like entering a prison. For the next 6 months,he only saw the outside world from the balcony.He dared not come downstairs incase he ran into the Police who are fond of saying "Ausviz Bitte" or "papers please". He went through hell,had to learn the language . He was later caught working illegally and when they took him to the Nigerian embassy to get papers to deport him,he denied being Nigerian.They later beat him up and released him but restricted his movement.They later gave him some sort of temporary stay and today,he is a German citizen. Anything is possible,but life isn't plane sailing for the illegal immigrant.

This story sounds foolish, cos he cannot deny being Nigerian. Why do you think there are records? Fingerprints, pictures and all?

Make I go learn hausa, buy small gun and go and surrender. Mark my words very soon ex- Bokoharam will be sent to the USA and the UK to study counter-insurgency.

nkpommpko: you people seem to forget that tb is the owner of the structure and foriegn nationals are involved, and south africa for that matter if we don't value for life in nigeria, south will pretend they do. Let watch and see.

Nigeria is too religious for anyone to prosecute tb joshua.

Well it will never happen case closed

Anything but pdp is fine,we've tried pdp since 1999 no hope! But that anything should not include apc,because they all one and the same.

Chiichii2010: Plz which site did u see,this royal air maroc for 77k.i need a cheap airline to london@general shepherd.

spikesC: Lmao at funny colored guys

Abeg, the bigger the better. We need more food spot options in this country

Guy abeg ehh a friend of mine used his credit card to help me pay my school fees. And I want to give him 4million in the uk. What is the best way to pay him that money in pounds sterling?

Sadam my rottweiler

Shameless country!


After some people will say Nigeria is a great country

kelvin4jesu: The last time I checked most Nigerians here are private foreign investors, so fallacy is not needed here.

I know what I know

eelvismd: What is the motivation for such?

1. Citizenship for their children because they see no hope in Nigeria in terms of opportunity
2. They consider the West to be superior and hence have no value for whatever emanate from us

What are the reasons for those travelling in the name of schooling?
Guess the same reasons above

So they are connected whether you admit it or not, and the bottom line is that we have a poor mentality fueled by our perverted value system.

Foolish argument.

Reasons of getting a degree from the west is numerous.

1. No plagiarism, they strive to teach you to be original and hardworking

No ASUU strike, should I continue?

kelvin4jesu: Nigerians working in uae top oil company


We should stop saying things we know nothing about because we want to give hope to the hopeless.

I have a friend that us an associate engineer at Mcdermott. Mcdermott is a subsea systems design company from pipelines,to risers,Christmas tree, jumpers etc

emteecve: My fellow Imperial student. hope 2 c u dere

Una be big people

frostmate: That's great. You might not need come to the UAE and start applying. Like I mentioned in my previous post start applying right from there, there are oil and gas companies.....try the ones in Abu Dhabi - adnoc, adco, gasco, and the others.

People have gotten jobs right from the UK with our green pali (naija passport). They value western education and experience ..... you've got both. Package yourself well and you'll be smiling with a fat salary. There was some post on the earlier pages in this section on companies in Abu Dhabi, you might want to search to find the post if it's not lost

Thanks alot

Yungmilio2: are you planing to complete ur studies in UAE or?
Are you using a Naija Passport or?
Drop ur questiöns here
monikers like justi4jesu, justw, and other monickers wil hav answers to ur questions
i only went there 4 holz

Nooo I'm thinking ahead for jobs after graduation.

Of course I'm using my Nigerian passport.

frostmate: Hi ....you can start by applying for jobs right from the UK. Do you have working experience? If yes then that is a plus.

I have work experience as an IT professional in a oil and gas firm, then as an electrical engineer in a manufacturing firm. Now I'm studying subsea engineering with concentration in pipeline design and asset risk management.

Yungmilio2: getting a Dubai visa is damn easy compare to you getting admitted in a Federal Uni in Nigeria
.
no doubt you still a young lad.
you going to hussle in Dubai with your Olevel result.
let's forget about Luck for now.. statistically
you getting a Nice job with Nice pay is just 1%.
don't think you can cope with that for two years.
if Luck no show. in the next 5years nothing is guaranteed.
you with no field of specialization. you can only get menial jobs
salespersons, security guard etc.
or join those in loading and offloading
....
school for now should be your number one priority
build your future gradually
get your cert. then go hussle with or without your kpali.
..
congratulation bout ur admission ish
go do your registration
hope engr? so that you can join them in QATAR years later for construction #wC2022

I'm studying subsea engineering at a prestigious school in the UK. If I wish to emigrate to UAE how do I go about it?

gcey2k: How do u mean Sir?

Go and study msc petroleum engineering in university of Houston and you.will get a well paying job outside Nigeria. In that way you won't need to dobyour nysc program.

lagcity: aaahh! You think I am joking? Atheist? They gonna kill you! In Nigeria, it is better to believe in Guru Maharaji than open your mouth and say there is no God at all. If you are gay, guys might not talk to you but some girls would still be friends with you. If you are atheist, nobody will come near you, even other atheists wont come near you for fear of exposure. Even if you are in a danfo, people will say make you come down so that the bus wont have accident. You don't know Nigeria .

That is a lie

bumstar1: Last time I went to TP, I heard people that applied on the 1st had started getting their visas.

Btw what does CAS status: USED mean?

Does that mean your application has now been processed.

There must be something we teleperformance people can do, it's ridiculous the amount of time they are taking.

I applied on the 11th of September and i resume school on the 6th of October.

Which school are you going to?

phreakabit: Only reason America isn't selling those mentioned weapons to Nigeria is to weaken the army enabling BH become an adversary of equal might and capability thereby fasttracking their United States Africa Command agenda, to facilitate oil theft. There is no way on earth we'd attack the USA with those weapons!

Why can't we build our weapons? How can I sell guns to you and you want to claim boss?

milehigh06: Nigeria loves to beg despite having the money to buy or build and when they refuse to give them aid,you now have the populace on mass hysteria calling everybody names and at the same time claim to be able to take care of their own issues and then the next topic comes alon and its the same thing over again

When majority of Nigerians are easily manipulated to belief the west is their enemy it is expected.

We always cry that Ghana , South Africa, Cameroon hates us.
Even Egyptians had the guts to tear up a Nigerian passport and as usual that case will die down.

BlackTechnology: Nigerians must start developing advanced weapons in large quantities

My thoughts exactly. We always crying wolf when someone decides not to help.

Is it impossible to build guns,tanks,missiles?

Not like we want nuclear weapons.

But with a dead manufacturing sector our country can only retrogress further.

addictiv: Evening great engineers and O&G professionals. i am a fresh graduate of petroleum engineering and due for national service by november. my dilemma is that my folks what me to skip service and go for masters maybe a phd in the US and possibly settle down there, but am worried about the ripple effect that would have on my professional career suppose i return to Nigeria in future for an opening. i remember one certain time that the minister of petroleum almost lost her job because of an accusation from the national assembly that she didn't participate in the compulsory one year service. she countered it by providing proof in pictures and discharge certificate. please i would like to know my odds because i feel there are more opportunities for me here than in a foreign land plus i can fast track my career as a professional if i serve here. left for them i ll be shipped off tonight if it where possible, its that serious. advice needed here please

Brother go to university of Houston for your msc and you won't have to come back to Nigeria
