Perfecttouchade:
you can extend your contract after it ends if the company wants to retain you or you can as well apply to another company when your contract ends

He should be applying like 4 months before the expiry of the contract to avoid stories that touch.

MrMcJay:
She is trying to mark her territory.

That girl is marking her territory, staking ownership on the guy and showing off her prize before her family members. The guy will now get there, her family members will be telling the guy to do quick and pick date.

Pick which date? Guy wey just pay for IELTS.

The bolded is just so funny....

Apus:
You won't understand.

Abroad is good for hustle and enjoying basic amenities we lack here. Asides this, there is this feeling of emptiness or something missing each time you remember home.
When I was away I was even more current about latest happenings in Naija than those at home so as to feel connected.

This statement is very true......my uncle and cousin abroad hear the latest naija news before me.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
English pls..

Hello Fernandez, I have always wanted to ask if you are Nigerian. I honestly don't know why I feel I should ask. Hope you don't find this offensive...

adeblow:
I got it during the strike. U can send me a message to give u a number to call

Oh okay, thanks. I just wanted to know how you went about it. I have done IELTS already so I am not in a hurry.

Thanks for the quick response.

Please i have written ielts Ukvi and I had an overall band score of 6.5, my agent still wants me to verify my degree using ECCTIS. Please Should I proceed or the ielts is enough for my visa application? Urgent response needed

I have tried to explain this problem if you go back to previous pages. I can't remember the page number now.

Since you have done your IELTS and your agent said you should verify your degree, it is simple. Your agent just want to compare your degree to the equivalent of the UK. All you need to do is apply through Ecctis by supplying your transcript and degree certificate for a fee (£140 + vat) to evaluate it.

adeblow:
Yes they provide that too. Its the same office that provides these things.
My School (FUT Minna) has that arrangement, and you can pay for these things online.

Please did you get your MOI before the strike?

I applied for it when the strike started but I have not heard anything from the school (FUT Minna)..

Good morning nairaladers and happy Trinity day

So I went to church with my family, at the entrance of the church members of protocol use their security gadgets to search us whether we carry any kind of weapon. Me that did not even carry Bible expect my phone and offering, yet they use their gadgets on me.

My opinion:

I was just laughing because it seems they don't trust their members again for instance me a member of more than five years and listen to the pastor almost every week.
I think this acts in church will further discourage people from attending church services but to stick to electronic programmes

It will not discourage anybody. You are saying this because it is a new measure in your church. I attend The Fountain of Life church in Ilupeju and I can't recall when we started the security check you talked about up there. It has been a long time ago that they do that security check and it has not discouraged members because we all understand that it's for our safety. I started attending that church since 2017 and the security check has been there before I started attending.

Whether you are an old member or not, you submit yourselves to the check.

Vulturereloaded:
Nigeria needs to be draged back abeg. Dollar was 156, fuel 85, diesel 180, bread 200, a bag of 50kg rice 6000.

Honestly, things are bad now in this country but PDP can't do better. I still remember when they were in power, everyday is one state banquet or the other wasting resources. I can't forget that about PDP.

We need other parties and individuals aside APC and PDP to govern this nation abeg....

Ninisun:
I believe these people are always straight forward. If them no want u, na regret mail and so I don't think that's an excuse cus they don't even know him in person or how he looks. I believe their mails or responses more than Naija own jare.

You're right ......but he said he knows them personally though.

cenaman:
Did any APC Aspirant visit South-east states to solicit for delegates vote, or is there no presents of APC delegates in Eastern part of the country?

I don't think south eastern candidates even campaigned there talk less of other candidates. The insecurity situation won't make people risk their lives ...

gagsnbugs:
Attached is what I sent to the care home about the whole red list thing

Okay, this should be convincing enough for them. I hope they really want to employ you and not using the red list as an excuse though.

gagsnbugs:
With this WHO Red list in place, will this affect getting jobs directly from care homes. By direct, I mean not via recruitment agencies. I have a care home that's willing to give me sponsorship and I know the owner personally but he's having doubts about this red list thing and sayin nigeria has been banned from applying for Health care jobs in the UK, from Nigeria. Please advice.

Thanks

That Red list only affects those that want to employ people enmasse. That is why most employers in the UK are avoiding agencies and prefer to employ individuals directly....

Individuals are getting these carer jobs o, so you need to let your employers know that.

lovelygirl04:
Good afternoon house! I applied to this care home yesterday and I got this response..are they real, they haven't even given offer later...pls I need your advice...thanks

Fraud is written all over this email.
Let me ask you some questions:
1.) Do you know the person personally?
2.) Is the company based in Nigeria or the UK?
3.) If based in the UK, is it registered with the Company House in the UK?
4.) How much were you asked to pay and to what bank account?
4.) I can see a Nigerian name at the end of the mail, is that the owner of the company?
5.) Have you done background check on that name!

If you cannot answer those questions satisfactorily to yourself, please delete that email and continue to search for other car home jobs.

Usually, CoS is not supposed to be paid for and so many fake agencies are pouncing on the desperation of Nigerians....

I once had an agency that told me to pay like yours too but I mailed her back to know if I can pay all she requested for after I got a job interview and CoS, she didn't reply till date

Racoon:
Game on. It will be foolhardy for a sane person to believe Abdullahi Adamu is acting unilaterally without the consent of Buhari or his presidential cabal.

Though I am not a Tinubu fan for the post of president but I must salute his courage.

PMB and co are trying all the options available to make him step down by appointing Adamu as APC chairman, Oyegun as chairman of screening committee, trying all the tricks such as announcing Lawan as consensus candidate to see what Tinubu will do (his next move). They have not been successful, the next trick will be by tinkering what will be done about the delegate.

I want PYO though.....

Amotekun777:
Foolish Ignorant Nigerians! No be by force to relocate na...

They can still go back 9ja. Ungrateful Fools, all they do is complain and whine. You dey 9ja, you complain, you go abroad, you go still complain. Dem force you go ni?

Ask that foolish man how much he makes monthly and he should as well convert it to Naira as he does with his other bills.

Exactly my point too....he just converted house rent and left the rest. House rent anywhere in the world takes the bulk of the salary...the UK is not special!!

HRprof:
Are you telling us that they make upto 1m in a month?
He is only talking about rent by the time he pays bills and other things money don finish be that

Why is he converting it to Naira like he lives in Nigeria...it doesn't make sense to me. He should come back home if he can't cope.

WatchYourSix:
I hope im wrong for your brothers sake..i cant remember well, but its like there are two different types of academic and general test ...

like the usual general test used to travel to canada is not accepted by UKVi..im not sure

there was an arguemment about it on the workvisa thread a couple of weeks back...

Uzland and iamdapsyj please u guys were talkimg about this the other day....can u clear this ielts wahala that UKVI accept for work/health care visa... someome got denied for using the normal ielts general

This is what I know as regard IELTS. Their is the normal IELTS that comprises Academic and General training which now costs 83,000 naira. It's accepted by many countries of the world but the UK don't accept it as they have their own which is called UKVI IELTS.

The UKVI IELTS meaning United Kingdom Visa and Immigration IELTS also comprises of Academic and General training which costs 89,500 naira. The UKVI IELTS Academic is for those that want to travel for schooling and highly skilled professionals needed in the UK while the General training is basically for migration purposes to the UK.

It should be noted that the contents (questions and timing) of the normal IELTS and UKVI IELTS are the same. However, their are administrative differences. The UKVI IELTS have their own specialized centres where the exams are taken. Their security is top notch with camera and microphones everywhere. Their TRF (Test Report Forms) is slightly different from the normal IELTS as well. The embassy can easily determine that it's a UKVI IELTS by merely seeing the TRF.

That's what I can say for now.....

Mine would be "LIFE", starring Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence. I still have it on my laptop till date. It's a movie released in 1998 I believe.

slivertongue:
His entitlement mentality is his undoing

He believed that he own Nigeria and Nigerians does not matter in the process. That was his undoing in my opinion.

TomatoSauce1:
We logged into our mobile app (gtb), clicked on card and enabled international transaction. We tried to make payment with the card again and it went through.

Okay thanks, I thought I should know because I will be doing mine soon by God's grace.

DeleTaller:
Most useless Governor... the albino Governor go soon collect in the coming election... He thinks he got their by himself abi?

Go the entire Ifo and see that dapo was a mistake.. agbado..crossing.. Lambe..Akute has turn to another hell road..people just dey curse the man... work wey Amosun do remain has been left untouched for good 4years now.. and the albino self dey follow throw jabs...

But he was foisted on the people by Tinubu...now that he appears not to be doing his bidding, he is not a good governor again.

When Amosun and some of the state APC leaders wanted to present their own candidate and do a credible primaries that at least will be free and fair to all which Tinubu is now clamouring for in this presidential primaries, Tinubu and his cohorts like Osoba them organised a charade to place the most useless governor the state has ever had on the people. Tinubu should carry his cross jare!!!

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Pls don't be like that little boy on here who generalise women..you are more than that aiit...
Thanks for understanding..

Thanks for this comment, I wanted to respond to her not to generalize before too but I had to stop because I don't have strength for online wahala....

The guy the Op talked about messed up no doubt and the Op should consider herself lucky not to be enslaved in that trap......in this day an age, some men still carry that old mentality that their wives can never earn than them....it's sickening I tell you!!

TOPCRUISE:
So Asiwaju was responsible for imposing a fraud as the Governor of Ogun State.
That means there were no primaries.
He won't dare talk to him like that if the primaries were free and fair.

The APC didn't want Dapo at the time but Tinubu foisted the man on the party. They did a kangaroo primary that produced the man. That singular act caused division in the party at the time.

So you see why he can talk down to the man in public and Dapo as a governor is not doing well at all as a governor. I don't see him coming back in 2023 except if the election is rigged or their is no strong opposition.

SoNature:
Alhaji Tinubu, this callout is unnecessary!

On second thought, this explains why Dapo is a terrible governor.

He probably remits a fraction of Ogun State revenue to Tinubu.

In fact, I have never seen a terrible governor as Dapo in Ogun state since Gbenga Daniel. Tinubu imposed that non performing governor on the people of the state....chaii smh!!!!

TomatoSauce1:
I've sorted this.

Please can you share how you sorted the issue.... thanks.

Uzland:
Hello Ponmbe, congratulations on your job offer.
Since you say you already have PTE Academic UKVI, if all you need at this time is to only show equivalence of your Nigerian bachelor's degree to that obtained in the UK, without English language proficiency, then what you should go for is Enic Statement of Comparability. For this, you only need to upload your final certificate and transcript.
Their website says: "Statement Of Comparability: A general purpose statement of qualification comparability. This service is for you if you need to evidence the level of your overseas qualification for employment, study, professional registration or another reason."
Link: https://enic.org.uk/Qualifications/SOC/Default.aspx
You can also message them to enquire further when you register via the link.

PS Please don't forget to keep us updated on your progress. Good luck!

Thank you for this bro, I was trying to educate a guy about this some days ago but all I got in return was insults....

Owopariola1:
Even though, this is the UK, what happened to this down below? Do you care to explain, at least we can learn from your perspective
This your post was in July 2020 o.

Many Nigerians are like that, they don't put what they say to practice. Poverty no they send patriotism o

nedekid:
Kai, you too don japa after shouting Sai baba Sai baba!
I thought we talk say we rough am here together?

this is so funny...

zinaunreal:
I did not ask them about comparability. I asked them directly about using diploma for naric, hnd in specific Why don't you ask them directly before uploading blur undiciperable pictures. Or are their staffs smoking weed?

Wow, this should not have led to insults. Anyway, enjoy and cheers!!!

zinaunreal:
I asked them myself. They accept diploma too. You can email them to verify

You don't seem to understand it, they even evaluate waec or any school leaving certicate. I will attach the differences for you in picture, may be you will understand better that way. Maybe the person you email didn't get you clearly.


The first and second picture is your English proficiency which can only be degree, master, and PhD. Any other lower certificate will not give you the requirement that they need and that is why they don't accept it

The third and last pictures is for any certificate (even lower certificates) you want to evaluate but the sample you have there is for degree.

zinaunreal:
Why don't you email them yourself and ask because I did and they said they do accept hnd

Don't be mistaken please. Their is a Naric assessment for purely English Language proficiency and only qualifications such as degree, masters and Phd will suffice. The other one is what you are referring to which will compare your qualification with that of the UK. For example, HND graduate level is at RQF 5, while a degree and masters degree level is RQF 6 and 7 respectively.
