Please read my comment again. I am only trying to understand how peeing in the open is a thing. It might be a fetish or gives him orgasm or maybe it is a ritual. I don't know.
Eating with your (washed)fingers is not the same as peeing in the open. Else it's the same as defecating in the open too, going by your statement.

Ok

This is strange and weird. Haven't heard of this before. Why will a grown man with access to toilet choose to wee in public instead?

Hmmn, imagine been slammed with a £10k debt from your car insurance company early on Monday morning.

Please any recommendation for a good insurance claim expert or lawyer? Person never make the £10k profit since getting here sef.

Advise to new migrants coming to the UK and planning on driving with int'l Licence, please think twice before getting that car oo, do you really need it?

Can you pass your driving test within a year of getting into the country and note that once you obtain a provisional licence it SUPERSEDES your international licence and according to the law, there must be a co-pilot with minimum of 3years validity beside you afterwards.

Any accident or dent that involves the insurance company can result into cancellation of your policy, increase in premium and unexpected debts by the 3rd party involved.

When I screen potential tenants, I expect an income of 4 times rent as that's what my insurance requires (I have rent guarantee insurance) which means I have to ask for the monthly income and proof of it. So yes, expect to also send in payslips or bank statements to back up the amount you say you earn.

I like your spirit and self belief and people like you succeed big time in Nigeria. This is exactly the mindset my brother in law had many years ago and he is now a Commissioner in one of the states as he told my sister when they were still very young that he was not prepared to come and wash plates, suffer, under achieve or play second fiddle in the UK even though she had a UK pali and his calling the bluff of that UK pali paid off for him BIG TIME.

He now visits the UK like going to Yaba.

I understand you. But look at it this way, I tell them my salary, they store it in their database.

Few months later, I'm in the market to buy and they are the seller's agent. They already have all my information without me giving them.

My naija people, is it normal an estate agent to ask you how much you make per annum just to book an appointment for viewing their listings.

Mind you I want to rent not buy the property.
I was asked what I do which I perfectly understand. But my salary

Ok let me clarify my thinking.

There are Nigerian restaurants in London whose owners put stuff from one "baba" in Nigeria in the food they sell to innocent Nigerians as an acquaintance once walked in on a woman who owns a restaurant we used to go to when the woman was on the phone to the "baba" in Nigeria asking how much of the stuff "baba" gave her she should put into the soup she is selling to the public.

I heard of a woman who took her huge British telecom phone bill to a White Garment pastor for consultations and prayers so that BT will reduce or forget about the bill and there are White Garment pastors in London who pray for fraudsters so that they will not be caught and i know a Bros in London who before he got married sent the prospective babes photographs to his brother in Nigeria asking him to consult 5 Babalawo's, 5 Imams and 5 pastors for "prayers" to see which of the babes is his future wife and the same bros said he once went onto London bridge in the dead of the night to take a "recommended" spiritual bath washing himself from head to toe with water and the old Nigerian 5 kobo (called sisi) on top of London bridge in the dead of the night.

Some of the Naija women in Manchester when they fall out and start recording slander videos against one another also expose what some of them get up to in Manchester and there is one who accused her erstwhile friend who is a caterer of putting the food she is selling to order into her bath, stripping off all her clothes, stand in the bath over the food and washing her privates over the food before then cooking it and delivering the order to the Nigerian who ordered the food for his or her party. I don't know if this one is true but this is from a beef video they recorded when the fell out and the video is most likely still on Youtube but i can't remember which one it is now.

So, these are just some of the things I've seen and heard in London in my time here and you just never know if that so called friend (old ones or new ones) is putting stuff into your food or drink when you go visiting them and the best thing to do in such instances is to make such friends know that you don't subscribe to fetishness or consulting sooth sayers and in any case such friendships can not stand the test of time unless you also believe in consulting sooth sayers.

So, its the fetishness some Nigerians abroad indulge in that i am calling out. If you visit a lot of barber shops and Naija restaurants / beer parlours in areas of London densely populated with Nigerians, sit down and just spend some time listening to people, you will marvel at what some Nigerians in London get up to and all indications are that Nigerians in manchester and Ireland are probably worse than the ones in london.

I hear and see a lot of things as Nigerian restaurants and Beer Parlors used to be like a second home to me[i] (and probably still is) [/i] as I've not cooked since I came back from Naija in 2008 and because I work very long hours and don't have my first meal until after work, I spend quite a lot of time in Nigerian Restaurants over the past 13 years and some of the things I've seen and heard about Nigerians in London is better left imagined and being that London never really used to be like this 20 something years ago, I'm always comparing and contrasting the Nigerians in London then versus some of the ones I meet now.

Hi @thegurus

I am lost on what to do...

My husband and I have both studied and lived in the UK some years back before moving back to Nigeria 4 years ago before our visa expired. However, we are both coming back to the UK in September for his PhD studies while I come on as a dependent.

I do not know how to say this but I have to. During my stay, i took an unsecured loan and credit card loan from a UK bank and I didn't pay it off before I left the UK and I totally forgot about it while in Nigeria. i recently logged into my UK bank account this week and I saw the deficits. There was no official mail from the bank during the years I was in Nigeria so I wasn't in the know. Although i should have remembered that I didn't complete the payment so it's all my fault.

I tried to access my credit score and as expected, it has been impacted and I observed that the money has been passed off to a collection agency.

I would like to know if

1. I can contact the collection agency and find a way to pay off the deficits or have some kind of a structured repayment plan.

2. As my husband and I are both coming to the UK this September, can this affect us from securing accommodation in the future, especially when they do a credit check on our documents?

I would really appreciate your response and I do hope to be able to clean up this mess I created.

Thanks a lot. Yes, it is true that teaching is also on the Shortage Occupation list but I think that mostly applies to STEM fields, not English. That was my argument with her. I could be wrong though, whcich is why I came here in the first place.

I'll go back and do some research and also learn about this GTCS you mentioned while I wait on Stenon 's nuggets.

And absolutely, I do not plan on forcing her at all, that's why I'm going to the trouble of seeking advice that would steer me in the right direction when I begin to carry out my research

The danger is that foreign tech companies should not be in a position to determine what is good to say and what is not good to say. It even gets more complicated when the CEO of the company keeps mixing his political views with what users of the company’s platform can say or cannot say.

Another problem is the issue of regulation. A media space that is unregulated will sooner or later create chaos. The media contributed significantly to the Rwandan genocide. We all saw the role Twitter played in the destruction of Lagos last year and the Capitol Hill riot. It’s good for tech companies to promote freedom of speech but they must do so under a define regulatory framework.

Twitter is registered as a business entity in UK, EU, India and other advanced countries. They should also be made to register as a company in Nigeria under our laws.

C'mon fellas. I watch Tv but not live. Whether or not to get an exemption is left for me. Also since I am sure that I do not watch live tv, then no need shutting the door at them. But one thing you guys fail to understand is that these guys (whites) are very diplomatic and can rope you into things just by visiting. Best to shut your door at them.
