Villagegirl:
The Poem...( can't come and waste)

By the way I became a free verse poet during the wait...it's part of the story so enjoy!

The Curve
The idea...this is probably the most intriguing part of the getting Canada Visa. You've just heard and probably done some research on the Canadian Visa. You seem to have what it takes, you're very excited. You're happy that your family will finally have someone legally residing in Obodo Oyibo. You imagine yourself in the snow, you imagine your children with their oyinbo accent, you imagine having 24 hours light and an economy "that works"....exhilarating!

The Hmmm...
This is when you begin to take your first steps towards your Canadian dream. You have to deal with ECA, IELTS and everything in between. You're tired, you didn't imagine this journey would test your very core. For the first time, you begin to question if this whole Canada thing is worth the effort and resources. Can't I just start a business with this money? Hmmm...

The Small Victories
Like Miners in a field, after months of gruelling hardwork, you're finally beginning to see some traces of gold; ECA done, IELTS scaled, ITA in the bag and somehow, the mountain of POF becomes a plain. You breath a small sigh of relief and once again, you can feel the cold from the Candian snow, even though all your windows are open and you're fanning yourself.

Winter is Coming?
Boy, the first time you heard that phrase you were excited, highly expectant and eagerly anticipating. It's more real than it has ever been. What would it look like? Will you be able to conquer Canada, the real North? You spend some time googling jobs, schools and apartments in Canada. You're so excited that you can't wait....or so you think.

You go on Nairaland, it's another PPR news and the celebrant got it in two months. Wow! You believe that's exactly how your story would play out. You've seen the signs. You dreamt about the VO saying "highly favoured one receive your PPR". You've sown a mighty seed to reduce the timeline, the guest pastor specifically called you out in church and told you "that thing you're looking for, God will do it in less than one month". You've made sure to tap and claim all short timelines on Nairaland. You've even bought an expensive plot of land at the beginning of the thread in I'll Announce my PPR in this Thread Estate.

2 months later, no update except for the usual Med and BiL. You're getting paranoid. You're beginning to have nightmares about a mistake in your application. You can't eat well, you can't sleep well, 4 hours of your daily work time is spent refreshing your Express entry profile. Even Casper the friendly ghost hasn't visited. What more? Family and friends are calling you with all sorts of prophesies and prayer points. Your parents are worried...has my child been duped? Because no matter how many times you explain, they can't understand how someone gets Canadian Visa by uploading papers on their computer and paying plenty money to an account they saw online.

The pressure is getting to you. You feel like you're going to explode into 10 million pieces if you wait one more day. You cry and ask God to make it happen this week...but it doesn't happen. It doesn't even happen the next month but without knowing it something about you has changed...

It's like you're becoming a Canadian without knowing it. You've become more patient and accepting of the fact that things follow certain processes and there's nothing you can do about it. You're been drained of your childish impatience in preparation for what lies ahead. You're more mature and spend your time doing more productive tasks rather than trying to decode IRCC.

And just when you've gotten into the new groove of calmness and maturity, beep, beep, Winter is here.

Post PPR - What lies ahead?
This, my dear friend, is your story to tell.
(The End)
So eloquent. Nice one.congratulations and best wishes on the other side.

FoodRe: 10 Nigerian Foods You Must Eat Before You Die by gracechellar(f): 7:26pm On Jun 28, 2019
midolian:
There’s a wide range of Nigerian foods available today. The wide variety of ethnic communities found in Nigeria means that the nation located in West Africa has a varied and rich culinary tradition. Like other West African countries, most Nigerian Foods uses spices and herbs in combination with palm oil or groundnut oil in order to create deeply flavoured sauces and soups often made very hot with chili peppers. There are some staples and ingredients that cross the country’s state borders and there are lots ofNigerian foodsthat are not mentioned here but these are some of the foods we recommend you try when next you visit Nigeria. Nigerian foods consists mainly of rice, yam, cassava, plantain and beans just to name a few.

These are prepared and eaten with the various soups and sometimes stew recipes. Some Nigerian foods can also be prepared in jollof or porridge form.

1.) Agidi Jollof

https://i1.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Agidi-jellof-e1426943899708.jpg?resize=888%2C666

This delicious Nigerian food comes with a soft bone inside otherwise known as (Okpukpu Agidi) . It is a very light food that can serve for either lunch or dinner and can also serve as a snack. It is usually wrapped in a leaf known as Uma leaf but you can also put it in a plastic container, or even aluminium foil. It’s a low-cost food, all that is needed is just a few ingredients to prepare, This is a must eat food for every Nigerian home.

2.) Pap (Akamu or Ogi)

https://i2.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/akara_akamu.jpg?resize=893%2C326

Made from corn, this traditional food, when combined with Akara, Fried plantain or Fried Yam tastes so great. It is also a very nice and nutritious baby food. Evaporated milk added to Akamu, gives you a great taste.

3.) Nkwobi

https://i1.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/nkwobi.jpg?resize=850%2C400

This is a super Nigerian delicacy simply prepared by mixing a well cooked cow foot or cow head with a spicy palm oil paste. Usually served in exclusive restaurants. It goes very well with any kind of drink.

4.) Tuwo Shinkafa

https://i2.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/TuwonShinkafa_w.jpg?resize=850%2C400

This food has its origin from the northern part of Nigeria It is prepared with a special quality of soft rice. It goes down well with Northern Nigerian soups and some other Nigerian soups as well.

5.) Nigerian Groundnut soup (peanut soup)

https://i1.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/egusi.jpg?resize=838%2C432

This is a very great substitute for Egusi soup and both share the same method of preparation. Some of the ingredients you need are: peeled groundnut, assorted fish and meat, palm oil, fluted pumpkin leaves, crayfish, salt and pepper.

6.) Ji Abubo (Yam and Vegetable Sauce)

https://i0.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/yam-vegetable-sauce.jpg?resize=832%2C625

This is known mostly with the Igbo’s. One of the most delicious delicacies in Igbo land.

7.) Boli (Roasted plantain)

https://i0.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Roasted-plantain.jpg?resize=850%2C400

This can come in two ways; the ripe and the unripe, whichever you chose, the taste is great.

8.) Plantain porridge

https://i2.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/yam_porridge.jpg?resize=850%2C428

For this particular food, its preparation is fast and easy but that doesn’t cancel the fact that it is very rich in iron especially with the unripe one. It goes better with dried fish, or if you like, meat. Vegetable is a must for this delicacy.

9.) Abacha (African Salad)

https://i0.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/abacha.jpg?resize=1024%2C680

Just as the name implies, it is a purely African Salad. Though most people still see it as a complete meal on its own, it is good to be taken as an in-between meal. Abacha is made from cassava.

10.) Ugba (Oil bean)

https://i2.wp.com/buzznigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Oil-bean-e1426943584952.jpg?resize=908%2C511

Oh my! Ask an Igbo about this, he will tell you a better story than I would ever do!

Hello Guys,

This trend has really been helpful.

Just got one issue on ground.

Got admission into UCD.
Got a 4k scholarship and made full balance payment to the school. My telex copy is ready, but the school has not given me a receipt yet. Mailed them and they said they have not seen it.
What course?

My question is this.

Can I go ahead and apply for my visa with my telex copy as prove of payment without the receipt or the schools receipt is a must. Apparently the school will receive the money later.

The reason is that I am currently on leave from work and I have limited time in preparing all my documents so I can apply next week.

So your advice.

Thanks

Hello people, to provide perspective to this...... Find below a summary of what happened based on the post on the referenced forum;

The VO claimed the wife, PA, misrepresented job duties. The job claimed is that of correctional and social worker manager noc 0423 & not satisfied invited them for interview bla bla bla. At the end ban!!! He claimed they had pictures etc to back it up but no certificate in training, CAC docs showed the object clause of the Coy was for a different purpose etc. It was a SINP. Again, the Coy the works for belongs to the brother and the VO requested for CAC docs to proof the coy is into such. Unfortunately, like in Naija where a coy is registered to do general contracts and is into pharmacy, it didn't sell. In all, it looks like a set up JD to the VO. We can learn. I believe this can be overturned via judicial review if sufficient docs exist to clear the grey areas.
Why didnt they just use a different job description related to the company
