SugarPg: Study Visa Approval Submitted application documents on 14th March,2025 Got into under review on 17th March Visa Approval 10th April May God make it happen for all those expecting Visa Approval, Amen
Congratulations. I might look into this Brazil PG studies as Nigeria is getting worse. 3 of my course mates went to Brazil since 2014 and 2 did post-doc in the US.
Redomi: Someone want to assist me to get to Brazil to hustle and make money, with promise that I will pay back the cash spent on all the traveling process. Please people with more experiences, I have never been out of the country in my life. Should I accept the offer?
OlaMojee: I am also thinking of moving to Ilesha from Lagos. I got a job offer at the uni in Ilesha.. I don't know a person neither do I have family there.. please is it a good offer I shouldn't loose? How do I do the accommodation and how's the lifestyle for a beginner... If anyone has an idea about the job and accommodation very close to work and not costly also but convenient for a lady who stays in a 3 bedroom flat with a sister and brother in Lagos.
Ilesa is a calm town with normal lifestyle. I don't know if the school now has hostel accommodation but I know you can never be stranded since it's a student community. There are private hostels around the school.
The school is state-owned and your job offer should state the terms and conditions for you to decide whether to accept it or not.
You are welcome to Ilesa, the town of the entrepreneurial ones.
HelenaWills: While it was being driven to my place. Overheating happened and it damaged the four coils. There right there, I spent above 250k fixing radiator, automated dashboard, four coils, plugs, oil gauge stick, mobil oil, gasket and some stupid things.
They fixed it, and it worked for a few minutes till it broke down again and I had to change filter and fuel pump with some minor things because car won't move. After a while... it moved again then stopped. This time it was the kick but before they figured it out. I learnt the roadside Kazeem had almost pieced the car in search of a fault that wasn't there.
While we were on this, I decided to replace the steering pump and rack because the steering had become stiff and so difficult to turn. This cost some fortunes.
Mind you, like play like play, this car had spent about 3 months at different locations. I got tired at this point and decided to leave it under bridge in Ojuelegba where I was asked to pay #400 per day but begged for #200. It was there from December till last month.
I was told it overheated again while moving from God knows where to Ojuelegba and I needed to replace the coils all again. Let's no forget there were different electrical issues that I can't even list out because I don't even know what to call them. But now, the gear is making one annoying and disturbing sound and they are asking for an arm and heart to fix it. It will be one year by next month and car hasn't made it to my house. It can't even go beyond 25Km/h nor can it climb hills. Very frustrating.
Didn't you test-drive the car during inspection before payment? Your mechanic is the culprit here. He must have connived with the seller to rip you off. Stop spending on the car and sell it as scrap or let the professionals in auto section of nairaland help you fix it.
Dogalmighty17: Gen Z in the house, gather around the table let me regale you with tales of the most prolific Nigerian fraudster, Fred Ajudua.
See kids, before yahoo, there was yahoo. Fred was and still remains a legend in this regard. The kind of heist he and his men pulled is so phenomenal. Fred put the ya in yahoo. Imagine that they locked him up in prison and right there in prison, he scammed one of the most brutal army generals Nigeria has ever had. General Bamaiyi. A prisoner scamming another prisoner. Fred scammed Bamaiyi of 8.4 million dollars right there in prison!
Fred is extremely smart and suave. He has the gift of garb. That's why Emmanuel Nwude, another big time fraudster and a former executive director of Union Bank, sought his services. Together, the sold a non existent airport to a Brazilian bank for 242 million dollars over 22 years ago. This was done using just a fax machine. No internet, no mobile phones outside thuraya satellite phone, were in existence then.
Oh! A movie has to be made of this. Fred and Nwude were very elaborate. They invited the Brazilians to London, lodged them in the best hotels, hired limousines to chauffeur them around town, took them to the best clubs and spent money like nothing. That wasn't all.
They invited the Brazilians to Nigeria. Right from the Lagos airport, Fred and Nwude paid just about every person that the Brazilians would come in contact with at the airport. They even hired people to be around the airport to greet Fred and Nwude as extremely wealthy guys. It didn't end there.
NNPC headquarters in Lagos then, was another staging area they used. Nwude, had the Brazilians follow him to the very top floor of the building. He took them to the NNPC boardroom. Paid NNPC staff and hired actors all around the building were greeting Nwude like a boss. The air of confidence Nwude walked into the towers with and the way the paid staff and hired actors showed respect to Nwude, further lulled the Brazilians.
It was right in that NNPC that the Brazilians, thinking they were signing a deal of a lifetime, agreed to transfer 242 million dollars to an escrow account Nwude provided.
Mind you as at then, no Nigerian bank had a capitalisation of 100 million dollars. So that was enough money to bounce the bank.
The Brazilians, excited, went back to their country. When the call to inspect the non existent airport they bought was not forthcoming, that's when they got apprehensive and got the authorities involved.
This singular scam that Fred and Nwude pulled, is the reason why we have EFCC today. Even Obasanjo as president then, could not comprehend this kind of criminality.
Fred never stopped scamming. He enjoys it and does so for fun. He later went on to become a member of the house of reps before his criminal nature caught up with him and he got sent to prison in Nigeria. His son, used to be Davido's lawyer until Davido dropped him.
What about the Brazilian bank he scammed? Well, the bank collapsed and some of its executives commited suicide. Not a kobo of that money was recovered.
When found guilty, he should have been compelled to return the money to the victims and then thrown into jail forever. Capital punishment should be established against yahoo crimes, to stem it's tide in Nigeria.
Apostle Arome Osayi stopped preaching and left the pulpit because phones rang in the church ! Is this pride or spiritual discipline? Did Jesus stop preaching despite the noise of the crowd? Would Arome have done same if he was in secular job ? Was he disrespectful to the congregation that came to church to listen to him?
Arome is a guy I respect and as a fellow comrade in the vineyard of Christ, I believe this was excessive and unfair to the congregation who came out to listen to you. I encourage you to take time to self reflect and publicly apologise to your church members ! This is very important because many younger pastors and Christians look up to you and see u as a father!
Anger prevented Moses from reaching the promise land. He was also disobedient because 99.5% obedience is still disobedience. The man could have rebuked the people and go ahead with the service.
Liverpool are in capable hands, having City gone down again today, should motivate them to extend their lead on the log. When will slot start using Gomez on the right hand side?
You lived shortly, yet made great impact on a lot of us. It's true that good trees rarely last in the bush. You came, you did, and you conquered. Rest on car legend. May God console the relatives you left behind.
The student behaved like a gangster to his lecturer. I didn't hear the conversation that ensued between the duo, therefore it's difficult to adjudicate this matter.
Anyways, the duo should have been more civilized in their approach of dealing with the issue.
Ournolly: Old HP HP EliteBook 8460p for Sale. Was my old laptop till I upgraded long ago. Have not touched it in years. Condition - not neat. Battery needs replacement. Everything working fine. Upgraded the Windows to Windows 10 Pro. The Windows is genuine of course. Specs - Core i5 10gb ram 320 hdd
Liverpool should stop conceding early goals. Look at the way Arsenal held City confidently on their own ground. We should win our home and away games without conceding needlessly onward.
God1000: Considering the high cost of building materials today in Nigeria, how much should one budget for such project.
Can people also suggest modifications or adjustments in the structure or components that can reduce the cost of this project. For example using flat roofing to reduce quantity of wood and zinc.
Use of blocks instead of pillars. Use of cheaper but good substitute building materials, and so on.
Congratulations to Klopp and Liverpool. Thanks to Liverpool for believing in Klopp and thanks to Klopp for giving the young lads the chance to shine, and also for bringing smiles to our faces. Nothing can stop you when it's your time.
May this victory herald more trophies for Liverpool this season.

Man United defended so well today by parking the bus all through 90 minutes. It was a wise decision by their Manager not to counter-attack Liverpool, else the outcome might have been different.
Liverpool, however, have to work on their attack if the really want to contest the EPL title this season. I can't imagine this result at Anfield, despite resting the players since last week.
A draw is better than a loss but the attack has to be lethal to be able to contend for the title this season. It seems these Liverpool players have lost their winning attitude.
Arnold is teaching these strikers how to score goals. He is really evolving and getting better as a midfielder and free ranger on the pitch. He deservedly is my man of the match.
I can't imagine not getting goals from our strikers, Salah and Nunez let us down today.

What's wrong with our defence,especially the right back, and goalkeeping today? Nunez should be courageous enough to score goals and not always pass the ball to Salah
I hope Fulham will not be allowed to cause another upset today.
Jakumo: This is a highly informative writeup about a truly dangerous drug that I am hearing about for the first time. There is yet another even more insidious drug that is widely used to rob unsuspecting men by hookers in South America, whose name I will NOT mention here, because if this drug arrives in Nigeria, it WILL be used by criminals, and that would be very bad news since the drug will kill if applied in an overdose quantity.
The drug to which I refer is derived from the flowers of a tree that would easily grow in Nigeria, which is why the NDLEA must educate itself about the effect and appearance of the tree whose flowers are used to manufacture this particular drug, which is typically processed into a white powder. Now, the element that sets this particular drug apart from ALL other deadly drugs is that in small dosages, the drug produces NO visible effects on the victim's behavior or speech that can be identified by an untrained observer. This means that in small doses, the victim is able to walk and talk as though nothing is amiss, while at the same time that victim will obey ANY instruction given to them by ANYBODY who knows about the mental state of that person under the influence.
The reason this drug is so dangerous is that it completely neutralizes the victim's ability to disobey instructions given by ANYBODY. That said, since the dosage can easily be overdone, brain damage and death are also likely outcomes of ingesting this drug, whose effect is highly desired by criminals seeking to empty the bank accounts of their victims. A typical scenario where a person could fall victim to this drug would be for a man to hire a hooker, only for her to produce a small amount of the powdered drug in question, and blow that powder into the face of her victim, who will then become her willing and obedient servant awaiting instructions that generally include heading to the ATM machine to empty the entire content of his bank account by installment over a few days during which the there may be repeat applications of the drug.
It is not uncommon for victims of this drug to take criminals to their homes, and actually assist those criminals in carrying out their personal belongings and cash from their homes, without a care in the world all due to the effects of that drug. Many victims are finally killed by repeat applications of the drug, by which time the criminals have generally taken everything of value that they can find in the victim's possession, all with the full conscious cooperation of the drugged victim. If this particular drug reaches Nigerian shores in the future, the implications would be absolutely catastrophic, so one can only hope that Nigerian criminals NEVER learn about this naturally occurring compound whose effects are so subtle yet potentially devastating.
How are you sure the substance is not already being abused in Nigeria?
I think the tertiary institutions should subject all new entrants to drug test and HIV test before admission.
The menace of drug and substance abuse is really soaring in the country and the psychiatric wards won't be able to contain the victims.
Reeefe: Yes there is 5" block. 9" isn't set for same price as 6" n if the charged u 240k for 2700 blocks which includes 9" n 6" I personally believe u got an awesome deal too. At 100ngn per blocks . Or do people set block and labou7 for less than 10p? I'm genuinely asking to know ohh
