Buhari has seen it all by now God has humbled his pride, prior to his second coming into power he claimed and boasted that subsidy was a fraud but one wonders today why he is part of that fraud.It's like a spectator who sees most of the game,that is,who sees players that would've played it better but when he (spectator) turns a player couldn't play any better but worst.

TravelRe: Whats My Best Relocation Choice? by IamgratefulLord(f): 7:03pm On Nov 25, 2021
Gerrard59:
Good option is postgraduate studies in Germany. You deposit the fund into a block account, which gets released to you upon arrival in Germany. However, the process in obtaining a visa as a Nigerian in Nigeria is onerous and the worst I've read in my entire life. This is because due to the sheer demand of people who want to flee Nigeria, Covid-19 disruption which resulted in logjam of applications and maybe a change to dissuade prospective applicants, the process for applying a student's visa has two categories - A and B. Where Category A: students who got scholarships from governments, organisations or the school. Basically, you're funded by a third party. Also, if you have a first class within a certain period of time (check the embassy and thread). This Category will have your application processed quickly and you get invited for an interview. Category B: You have a 2.1 and below, self-funded etc. This will have your application processed at a later date and takes a year (again, check the thread). See why I mentioned it being onerous and worst ever read about? You have folks in Category B who got admitted but because they are in that category, their visa interview dates are allocated at dates beyond resumption dates and sometimes the following year. That's, you apply for admission for say September batch but don't get a visa interview till say June meanwhile classes commenced the previous year. Compare it to Japan where you apply for admission into the October intake, get a visa interview once your certificate of eligibility arrives (usually a month before, that's, August), head to embassy, get the visa and travel to Japan. Also, you're married and a father, this will incur more expenses if you intend carrying them along.

Better option is Canada express entry. You go through the process and all things being equal, you get ITA sometime next year. However, 5M will not be enough as a family man with two children. If I'm not mistaken, single applicants are required to possess POF of C$12, 000. Unless you go alone through the competitive process, you're patient, have a very high IELTS score of 8888, be prepared to learn French if need be etc.

Best option is the United States With your level of experience and hopefully a good grade, you can apply for a direct PhD and here's the juicy stuff; as a PhD student, you don't pay tuition fees as the department will waive it for you, get a stipend, you can bring your children and wife to the US; and yes, the school will fund you for that. Also, you have an easier path to green card and eventually citizenship after graduation. Now, the process entails you looking for a professor whose research theme aligns with yours. Send cold emails (see this link for in depth details: https://anumightytm.medium.com/part-two-guide-to-graduate-studies-in-the-united-state-of-america-us-38142f48d1f0), write the GRE to improve your chances, hopefully your IELTS score has a Listening score of at least 8 to improve your chances of getting teaching assistantships. Unfortunately, it's late to commence the process now as most schools offer funding for Fall season (August) as opposed to spring (March/April). So, what do you in the interim? Prepare very well for the journey and guess what? You will spend max N2M (inclusive of flight tickets) for this option because at the end of the day, you are not paying tuition fees nor providing living expenses. Why PhD instead of a masters? You're 31, don't have about 15M+ to present to the visa officer, long work experience and married with two children. An MSc doesn't favour you as most times, the school will not fund you. Trust me, if you opt for this option, you would be in the US mid-2023.

P.S. Forget the Australian option, you don't have the money as it's way more expensive than Canada's, your age doesn't favour you and maybe your occupation is not in high demand.

Best wishes!
You're a smart ass and well informed .Na this kind sensible man I need. Chai!! cheesy kiss Marry me please

The best state to get your passport within 3 weeks without paying a dime as bribe and with a cost of not upto 26k is Jigawa State. I traveled to that place just to get mine and I wasn't disappointed.

Christianity EtcRe: 22 Doctrinal Beliefs Of Deeper Life Church by IamgratefulLord(f): 9:44am On Sep 19, 2021
OtemAtum:
1- Holy Bible= The greatest book of lies

2 - The God Head(Trinity) = Jehovah, Allah and Faulkin(The first two are currently in a spiritual cage)

3- The Virgin Birth Of Jesus Christ= Greatest scam ever

4) Total Depravity= Turns you to a mumu

5- Repentance= Repent from not watching TV? cheesy

6- Restitution= If you marry two wives, divorce the second one. Does that make sense?

7- Justification= from what?

8-Water Baptism= Bury your head in dirty, murky water for nothing. Come out of water and still remain the same old sheeple.

9-Lords Super= Drinking blood and eating flesh like cannibals. More like secret cult initiation.

10- Sanctification= impossible!

11- Holy Ghost Baptism= speak in tongue that you are forming?

12- Redemption= From what?

13- Personal Evangelism= You want members to bring in more followers so that you will have larger congregation and tithes cheesy

14- Marriage (monogamy )= Why the resttriction.?

15- Rapture= Big lie

16- Resurrection of The dead= not here on earth

17- Great Tribulation= fear fear tactics

18- Second Coming of Jesus Christ= Putting humanity into 'he is coming'. Biggest of all lies.

19- Christ Millennial Reign= Lies

20- Great White Throne Judgement= Lies

21- New Heaven and New Earth= Lies

22 - Hell Fire = Lies

In the end, Jehovah still remains caged in his spiritual cage by the gods of science till year 3016.
I'm praying for you. Jesus will visit you soon. I have tasted of His power.

PoliticsRe: What's The Future Of Southern Nigeria If The North Falls To Terrorists by IamgratefulLord(f):
Powersurge:
Oga your story is shortlived. First of Russia got her ass whooped in Afghanistan.

Second of all, USA, thoroughly dealt with Taliban, removed them from government, installed new govt etc. The next phase now is to teach Afghans to fight their own war. Which is what US would do eventually.

Thirdly, America though not invincible is a master tactician. Withdrawal from Afghanistan and subsequently allowing terrorists taking over the country would be strategic.

First, it will allow the oppressed China's Ughur region, to have direct access to a terror nation. And you know the problems in the Urghur region in China.

Secondly, Taliban can easily seize Tajikistan and Uzbekistan which are at the backyard of Russia. Bringing terrorism into China-Russia mix would be a great tool for global dominance. Sacrificing Afghanistan to achieve that aim wouldn't be a difficult decision.

Knowing that America has over 50 years experience dealing with terrorists, they have moved into the realm of using terrorists to achieve their aims. Rather than completely wiping them out. Don't forget that at the height of Iran-US crisis, there were insinuations that America wanted to activate ISIS who is arch enemy of Iran.

If the global GDP is $80tr and your country alone controls $22tr out of it, you can do a lot.

It will be very difficult for terrorists to overun the south if we remove govt interference. Because for one, they are easily identifiable compared to southern population. Secondly, the south is much smaller and less mountainous. Thirdly, we have more resources to fight a prolonged warfare than them, amongst others.
