Once again thanks.

I had the meeting with the professor today and everything went smoothly. Special Shout to blackbriar for the advice he gave on making a presentation on page 47, which I did and the prof appreciated how I communicated my intentions. He further when on to send me 3 doc which contains details on how to apply and where to fill in my details, in one of the documents, it contains their account details and the application 9,800 yen. My question is that am I to pay the money via a Nigeria bank, if yes is it just any bank or there are specific banks?
Congratulations on your progress so far. Pay via a bank using the SWIFT details of the receiving account in Japan.

@Application fee Y9, 800. What program are you applying to?

Hmmm... I think this Honourable is her third abi fourth husband
HausaIgboYoruba:
the man even allegedly had two wives before he married the divorcee, Layla making her his third wife
Northerners do marry single mothers and divorcees. It seems being a single mother or divorcee doesn't have a negative stigma in the north as it does in the south.

Nigeria - a country of many ethnic nations with varying beliefs.


That said, the Layla is a beautiful woman o kiss

Dangote is BIG!

I watched his chat with the head of the Norwegian investment firm and I learnt a lot. He knows his numbers off his fingers and is thoroughly detailed. His explanation made me realise entrepreneurship get grade and numbers are essential to the growth, survival and sustenance of a business.

Electricity generation has been removed from the exclusive list. Have you complained to your state governor?
Nigerians need to understand that 8 years of Buhari totally finished Nigeria. The country was effectively bankrupt. Reform is never easy, but its starting to bear fruit. The Niara is now relatively stable, even with the war in Iran. I don't really like Tinubu, but in all honesty he's the best we have right now.
Tinubu campaigned and voted for Buhari in 2015. He even promised to continue from where Buhari stopped. Why absolve him?
PoliticsRe: Give Me One Reason I Should Vote Tinubu Again by Gerrard59(m): 12:08pm On May 17
So OP earns well and lives in Nigeria. It begs the question: What does a Nigerian who earns well enjoy while living in Nigeria?
https://www.nairaland.com/7496716/what-exactly-does-one-enjoy


I find his narration very emotional and soul draining. He makes good money, but it's not showing in his quality of life. If he cannot enjoy his money, what about those who don't make a quarter of his earnings?



That said, subsidy had to go. It was non-negotiable. The problem are: not using the recouped funds for better public transport system and Tinubu kicking against its removal 14 years ago. Electricity has to be fully privatised for constant electricity to be widely available. The hike in petrol prices isn't Tinubu's fault. Crude oil is a global commodity. The reason there has to be better public transport systems across major cities.

Omo, Nigeria's problems too plenty, abeg.
TravelRe: 10 Things You Should Know About Enugu by Gerrard59(m): 12:19pm On May 16
GloriousGbola:
It is not an iq problem

Enugu likely because of coal does not have your conventional water table

I have overseen multiple retail projects in Enugu and water is always a nightmare.

Standard borehole will not work

Industrial borehole is 50/50 and may pack up after a time.

The governor is trying to sort it out but it likely means they have to locate an aquifer deeeeeep in the earth.
Sorry, but I still believe it's a failure of the elites. Water can be piped from elsewhere. It must not be from Enugu City itself, which many have stated is where the problem only exists. There is not science and engineering cannot solve, and certainly basic water supply isn't one of such.

I wonder what they study at UNN Geology and other related departments.
TravelRe: 10 Things You Should Know About Enugu by Gerrard59(m): 12:12pm On May 16
No wonder my then secondary school mate who was the one who "tear eye" pass and one of the oldest then never still marry. Make James do marry, make I use am get hope. grin grin

@Rapmoney: What's the attitude of policemen in Enugu? Do they harass young men who dress well and drive nice cars? You know how it's in Warri.

That water issue is an IQ problem. There are topographically worse places that have water. Enugu shouldn't be an exception.

TravelRe: Is Leaving Nigeria For Europe Really Better Than Staying Back To Build Something by Gerrard59(m): 2:45pm On May 15
It goes both ways. Make who wan leave Nigeria, leave. Make who wan stay, stay. Some people's lives and trajectories have changed ever since they left. Some mindsets, too, have changed. Nigeria is always there to return to.

p.s. The talk about starting a business is good, but not everyone can be an entrepreneur. The economy needs to be diversified beyond certain sectors and areas, and security needs to be in place so people can thrive even in far-flung states. The economy has to grow significantly. In return, better salaries would come forth.

p.s. This japa of a thing no concern northerners o, and they too are Nigerians.

I don't intend to make him look good, I am not excusing his or her shortcomings. They are both not perfect however, having extramarital affairs is not excusable by me.

If he has filed for divorce and she is fine with the divorce, so be it. Even if she isn't fine with it, it doesn't influence his position on the divorce or separation. Upon divorce, both parties are free to remarry or date someone else.
Stop being judgemental towards Frank, he owes you nothing.
Who said anything about owing me anything? Am I the one whose linings have been made public? Na me dem accuse of not paying school fees? Na me dem say evidence dey of carrying women into his matrimonial home? Did I say I am a two time divorcee with FIVE CHILDREN?

Unfortunately, your brothers are yet to wake up and smell the coffee.

They think we are still in the era where women will endure anything to be married.

Gradually, things are changing.

Interestingly, it is the mothers celebrated for their 'endurance' and ability to take shit that trained the daughters of today.
A lot of Nigerian netizens are illierates! I even saw some stated that "dem go send am to her papa house". On average, most of these women are comfortable and rent and own properties. There are several studies (from around the world) to prove that today's women have changed significantly. Money changes people, and these women have a lot of it. So, what their mothers tolerated, they won't. That is the power of financial independence. One has the power to say no or yes at his/her will. They remain single for life (single women do better than single men in the long run). They have been sexually liberated. They can relocate elsewhere. So, this belief that financially independent women cannot choose to go against entrenched norms is baffling. Divorce rates have increased. More women are remaining single and childless.

Maybe it is the women they associate with, because what I read is something else.

The worst part is young men who are struggling mocking well off women online. Tinubu should do something about the Nigerian economy, biko.

Treadway:
you know Freeze right? He hasn't done any major project in years, but he still has money. Frank still does a lot of gigs o. That guy, Segun Arinze and a distant third IK, are responsible for most of the voice overs you hear in this enlightened south. He is still on radio a bit, he is into production, also into real estate. He made bank on WWTBAM and would expectedly have made investments. As for her, nothing here suggests she was loaded when they met, nothing suggests her family is a big name. The business began in 2017, which is long after they got married, and prior to that she was only noted to have been in banking...how do we know he didnt even start this business with/for her.

No dey take woman dey play laidat o. You have to really look well. If you just follow wetin women dey talk, you go lost o.
Thanks for your perspective. I just think he got egged on by Twitter banger boys. Those boys are largely illiterates (just came from there). So, when I see educated, exposed, and enlightened men get support from those boys, I am surprised because on a normal day, these enlightened men and Twitter banger boys won't cross paths.

cho cho cho has led him to this. There has to be a limit when it comes to doing such on a platform as Twitter. Considering how he lampoons people online, good luck to him doing the same going forward.

My perspective is that couples should try to be faithful to each other, and when they cannot sustain it, they divorce amicably. Problem begins when one party does cho cho cho to appease online audience who are only interested in gist and clout.

Wallade:
So if he had a first divorce, he should not be with any woman or several women. Is he an Eunuch?

Your statement doesn't even make sense.

He has every right and reason to remarry if he so wishes.
Sure, but a man who is a serial divorcee is a red billboard. I don't know why you want to make him look innocent. Both did wrong, but na him sharp mouth pass.

People are being too hypocritical. Him fvck several women. She fvcked one man. Why the hullabaloo?

Someone like Frank, who likes to carry women up and down, especially after his first divorce, should undergo a vasectomy and stay off marriage entirely.

Frank does not come across as someone who has enough money to cater for fees of five children in two different homes.

It's National university
A prof has shown interest in my request, but he said he wants to speak with my recommender who happens to be the current HOD of my dept. He sent an email to him which my hod responded, after which he requested for an online but my HOD is yet to respond due to his busy schedule. I just tire

Anyways another professor has scheduled a meeting with me for next week
Best wishes in your quest. Aim to get in for this October or April 2027 session, as there are plans, and some have actually happened, by national universities to increase tuition fees for foreign students.

But shebi I talk say today's women have changed, especially as they have their own incomes. Dem call me naive. Today's women won't tolerate some things their mothers did as they are economically well off than their mothers. As it is, they can decide to remain single and nothing go happen. After all, she has the money. Doesn't she?

So Uncle Frank no fit afford school fees of both current and previous children? When I say have few children and undergo vasectomy, e get why.

Na why research thinking good. Go to good schools o. grin

CelebritiesRe: Frank Edoho's Wife, Sandra Names Tega BBN, Others As His Side Chicks by Gerrard59(m): 6:15pm On May 14
The fact that she mentioned names and even tagged their handles means she is serious about her allegations. It is always good to hear from both sides. That narcissism she accuses Frank of, I fit believe that one. He does come across as a narcissist. Based on the number of women mentioned, it means he relied on her finances to fund those paroles. E be like say the guy no get steady and solid incomes.

People like Frank should undergo a vasectomy after their first divorce before thinking of remarrying.

All this is why I thought the story is made up for internet clout. If the child goes to naija he will likely never see the child again. If the child stays in the UK with him he will see something more than pepper. Anyone abroad has to shell out big money for child minding before the kids start school.
But why would a well accomplished professional bring out his family's matter for Internet clout? To an extent, I would not want to throw away his story because he was an "ally", and knew or presumably knows the reactions that would follow from Twitter Ndi Alpha males.

Its a lie. Its his child and allegedly hes actually the cheat. I doubt she was deported because their marriage failed. More likelihood that she left because she could not afford the fees or support the child on her own in the UK. UK no go deport just like that. They will give you time to get lawyers to sort your issue but lawyer fees no be joke at all. My friend is going through this and hes a dependent on the visa. They gave him time to sort himself out with lawyers.
oh! I see. Thanks for the breakdown.
