HudsonBanks: Reporting Live from Hamad International! Got here 2 hours ago Na God go punish all our Nigerian Airlines oo with their piss poor service I swear. My flight was super smooth with 5 star service I repeat 5 star service!! Chai!

Planned to go to their Oryx Lounge but the airport itself na lounge with fast working free wifi and all, so no need to blow $40 on the Oryx Lounge any more.

I almost missed my flight today oo and even carried a little bit of excess luggage (Carried two bags, one na 85% Indomie ) but talking nice and smiling to the fine lady at their check in desk allowed me get away with being late and paying for excess luggage.

Arriving London in the morning. God bless us all here and allow us achieve fantastic grades in our post grad endeavors, Amen!

mhoreh: I submitted my application on the 12th and I was asked during the interview for my course start date, I told the guy 15th and he was like I had just 3days to resumption and I said yes I know and quickly told him I had gotten an extension, b4 d guy decides to find an excuse in dat... Wld be picking up my visa dis week

goldendraco: Thanks.
, good to know we are together. I have been disturbing her too (my course coordinator), but she is insisting on the ten working days thing. I pray it works out and we make it.
What date did you pick as the intended travel date. Are you staying in the Uni accommodation.

goldendraco: Yes, am submitting in ikeja on Tuesday. I pray so, thinking of calling my course department tomorrow to see if they can extend the last resumption date. Am going to university of strathclyde, MSc Advanced Computer Science. And you which school

goldendraco: Hello everyone, please I need your advise. am submitting my application on the 23rd of September, and my school resumes on the 26th of September. I was told I have 10 working days to resume after the school start date. But the problem is my visa processing time is not up to 15 working days, it's shorting two days. What can I do about it as I don't want to be refused based on that.

dortmund01: congrats bro. which date was on your visa page?

muhddeen3: Hi guys. I applied for my visa at the vfs office in Abuja on monday 8/9/14 and I just got a mail thati it has been issued and I'll be receiving it in 2 working days. This thread has been most helpful. Thanks guys.

Middlesex students make some noise!!

bennieboom: Hi everyone I just gt my visa out from Teleperformance i noticed d status changed ds afternoon and immediately headed there. Bn a long wait since 15Aug but the wait is over. Thanx to all those who supported those of us traumatized by Teleperformance's performance.
Phew!!!

HudsonBanks: Finally finally finally!!! Applying at Abuja has paid off beyond my imagination My approval email just came in barely 15 mins ago oo! Applied just this Monday making it just 3 working days processing time. Too amazing!

To the rest of this our big family waiting on their visas, We serve a living God that never fails. Holy ghost fire on Teleperformance's bottom! Your approval is on the way.

Thank you!

kingsilly: KILL DEM ALL...u gonna do just fine

santhu123: Guys I have a question.

What will they ask during immigration check in the airport.

I know I have to show my passport and study documents. Do they ask for updated bank statements and proof of fund ? The money is in the bank but all I have now is my bank statement which I submitted with my visa dated aug 13. Is that okay or I have to provide them a new statement ?

Olutola88: If you read my post well, you will see that I said this piece is mainly for those that do not have solid network. At the same time, a 2.1 or 1st class can guarantee you a job offer in a good company even without knowing anyone there. I also gave examples of my friends that got job offers even before the end of NYSC strictly on merit. One of them got the offer 3 weeks ago and the other got it 5 days ago

giftmurphy: hi,anyone going to Greenwich?

Bambamzzzz: Live in Uk now,Thanks to all my oga's in the house

muhddeen3: Yes TB cert. I tried calling them but all the numbers I have are not going through. (08072191122, 08095637898, 08085221487) so I went to the office and the security men said nobody was in. But is the reprinting possible?

muhddeen3: URGENT PLEASE!!!!

This thread has been most helpful to me, I check in here for almost every small detail of info I need.
Please I have a unique issue and I honestly don't know how to go about it.
I collected my tb certificate on friday 5 sept from the abuja office and my visa interview is 9am on monday 8 September. I checked everywhere but still can't find my certificate. This happens to me all the time. I'll keep things and they'll get lost and I'll never ever see them again no matter how I check. Please I need advice on how to obtain another certificate before my interview on monday. Luckily enough I've made two photocopies of the certificate. Thank you and God bless.

MissMeiya: Just getting by is not good enough. The internet has revolutionized the education field everywhere else and smashed down doors for people who couldn't have access to information and knowledge before. And yet, just look at the front page of Nairaland. There's a dinosaur post on the front page and the comments are the stupidest things I've ever seen. "Where are the photos?" "Dinosaurs are oyinbo lies" Read comments like those then come and look at these test scores again. So many times you see people arguing stupidly because they cannot open a simple window to google the answer to a question.

If Nigeria is content to point the finger at social media, it will just fall further and further behind the rest of the world.

In undergrad, I had TWO courses that utilized Twitter in their curriculums. Ivy League. The minds behind the world's technology giants didn't have their phones taken away because they were a distraction.

I wrote my first computer program when I was 9, because my mother bought me a laptop toy with educational games. I have a young cousin whom I adore because she is a bookworm like me, and I bought her an electronic reader. She has a stellar vocabulary at 14 years old.

Technology is far from the problem in Nigeria's education system. There's barely enough of it.
