Your issue is not about sponsorship or not. Applicants must know that the ECO will only consider sponsorship, if the applicant is underage (less than 18 years) or a sole dependent on the sponsor. Apart from landed properties, what else can make you return back to Nigeria if issued a visa.
My parents, my job, and also my mother depends on me for support, all these I stated in my first application.

Still on the issue of sponsorship, I want you to please clear this for me, my friend wants me to visit her, we have been friends for two Years, I am not the one initiating the visit, she is the one that wants me to come visit and she is saying she is ready to sponsor the trip. Now, how do you advice we go about this process.... Plan visit..... Xmas.

Have you addressed the ECO's concerns @the bolded above? What in your estimation would bring you back home? Getting credible sponsorship isn't as important as you qualifying for the visa as an individual, considering your personal circumstances.
Thank you for your response, yes I have the first one addressed, I have gone back to my work place to secure a salary account, which I intend running for the next six months before applying and a pay slip gather to this effect for the next six months. As for what will bring me back home, that I submited in my first application, deed of landed property and documents of my current property. Now my concern is that of spending, my major spending point on my previous application was 350000 on ticketing return...

That was the second issue raised by the ECO... Now my sponsor is saying, forget ticket, I will buy, cut your spending to light shopping say one hundred pounds....my question now is this, what papers does she need to provide and what are your views to all these.... Many thanks

Hello Mr. Justwise and other pros in the house.... I need a bit of help here, so far I have enough information regarding how to apply, as I applied once last year and was refused. The ECO concern was well noted, but I need help or more like a professional opinion here, I was refused based on the ground that my said salary do not reflect on my statement of account and that he the ECO do not find it credible that I will be spending 8 time my salary on an 18 days trip. Now based on all this ground, my sponsor who is a friend and who is actually inviting me, has now taken it upon herself to sponsor the entire trip. My question now is what arre the documents she needs to provide.... It is a visiting visa, and she is saying she will fund all expenses including ticket.... Please give me your professional advice... Many thanks... And kind regards...
