...on top this leprosy light.
Those countries that have power supply 24hrs 7days, how did they even do it?
They pay the full cost of electricity initially and it is expensive by Nigeria standard.

When the sector is fully deregulated without govt interference, tariff will go up causing the sector to be more attractive to more investors in the power sector then competition will set in and force the tariff down.

I have 2 Gamestop shares I abandoned in my account, just decided to check today and I was surprise the share jumped but can't sell as Trade212 is having a delay. I stopped buying stocks this week and selling anyone with a profit of 10% (except NIO) while I wait for market to crash lol

Update

Finally sold for a profit of £119

Care worker is not classified under skilled job according to my research therefore cannot apply for skilled worker visa BUT

Seeing that senior care worker is a job under skilled work and it’s also under shortage occupation list. Is it okay to study msc healthcare mgmt or msc health&social care and apply for a job as a senior care worker with 2-3years of experience as a carer/support worker.

Cc justwise lagosismyhome theguyfromhr and others with experience concerning this.
Check this out https://www.gov.uk/health-care-worker-visa/your-job HCAs are classified as 6141: nursing auxiliaries and assistants and they are qualified for reduced visa fees and ihs exemption this is not an assumption as I have got someone who successfully moved to the UK under this and working as HCA

Please I would like to know if anyone here has travelled to US or Canada while on UK tier 4 visa. I’m planning to apply for a visiting visa but my issue is that I don’t have anyone in US like family to invite me. What are my chances of getting the visa if I state that I’m only going for tourism just for a month. Thanks
If you have your money I think your chance is high compared to if you had applied from Nigeria lol. 1-2 weeks is OK but one month will likely raise more questions. Hope you know thatUSA has still not opened her airport to non-essential travellers from UK?

Things might be different now. But I think you don’t need an invite to apply for tourist visa to the US.
In 2014, Few of my class mates that came to do master from Nigeria on tier 4 visa applied for US tourist visa and they all got it. ......
They all met the financial requirements.
But things might be different now as we know immigration laws constantly changes
The only issue I see here is a student going on tourism for one solid month. That will definitely raise alot of questions by the VO. 1 to 2 weeks is still understandable.

Reasonably good and steady income.
You can buy a house on a student visa if you like, if you have the raw cash or some form of relevant income and can find a bank to give you a mortgage.
Most banks have stopped giving mortgage to those who are not on ILR or haven't lived in UK for at least 3years

Yes. NHS do sponsor HCA but you have to apply to the ones which salary is £20,480 and above. From my research and someone who got sponsored recently, you should focus on NHS in London and its environment. Pray very well too.

All the best.
Actually as long as the job is paying at least £13k he can apply. It doesn't need to be £20k HCA jobs

No. That will be illegal if they do that , someone probably grassed him up
Not likely. What happens is most people get the first letter and ignore it then when they receive a final letter with a strong warning of legal action they begin to panic and think they are being tracked. Happened to a friend of mine, he nearly shit into his pants lol until I told him to complete the no licence needed form online if he is not doing watching any program that falls in TV licence category, he did it and ever since then there hasn't been any letter again.

Arrested for not paying enough tax. Most of the victims are either people who are new in the UK or those who don't read news

Hello hse, so I arrived 5qm today buh unfortunately I forgot my hand luggage at the luggage pickup center containing 3 pairs of shoes and some cloths. I have already arrived Birmingham whic is my final destination, I was advised to go back to london today to get it as I may not see it again after my quarantine.

Pls hse urgent advice needed
If you have not done so already contact the airline you came with and tell them you forgot one of your luggages. Give the details description of the bag (color, flight details etc) with the forwarding address. If found it will be sent to you but can take like 1 week to arrive.

Till you either get stopped or have a crash....... Then faced with the consequences of the errors in your highways....... tongue
LOL, I'm not saying this based on unstantiated claim going around for ages but based on experience of more than 10 close friends and for your information 1 of them had been stopped by police and his ID checked and he only HAD NORMAL NAIJA DRIVERS LICENCE.

I repeat this ANYONE THAT TELLS YOU NA ONLY INTERNATIONAL DRIVER LICENCE IS ACCEPTED IN THE UK HAS EITHER BEEN LIED TO OR JUST FORMED AN OPINION OF HIS OWN AND PASS IT AS STATEMENT OF FACT WHICH IS FALSE. Normal Nigeria driver license is accepted 100%, after 1yr of arriving in UK you can no longer use it

The normal naija license? Or the international driver's license.

Please I need clarification
Normal Nigeria driving license. If you have it no need of getting the international one, it is waste of money.

You can drive with normal naija driving license in the UK. However, the licence is only valid for one (1) year from the date you arrived in UK.

This place has been quiet lately possibly due to the last 3 to 4 weeks massacre of the stocks. Thank God things are now recovering.

Who else is cashing in on this Microvision madness? I was too afraid to join on Friday but I finally bought just 1 stock yesterday when it climbed up to $22 and abandoned it there by evening it was already $26. Seems Redditors have chosen this stock as the next bride. It is expected to go up today until the financial report is released DO NOT INVEST ANY AMOUNT YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE LOOSING.

Please, what location(s) is advised for a newly wedded Nurse about to relocate to the UK?

Spouse is a junior-level data analyst and won't mind working remotely.

Considerations would be on cost of accommodation, transportation, groceries; friendliness of community to blacks and newcomers; suitability for raising kids - schooling.

Dear Nigerian-UK forerunners, based on your insight and experience, kindly advise on locations to target based on profile above.

Thanks - Nagode - Daalu - Ese!
Try Midlands especially West Midlands or Northern England

I really don't understand the procedures anymore, it used to be straightforward by applying online, make payment then book appointment but now i'm not sure if the embassy is even opened let alone making an application.
The embassy is now open.
Complete the application form online and pay
Then wait for the biometrics invite.
Presently they are inviting those who applied last year

This why the market is down. Suez canal is blocked. No free flow of goods from Europe to Asia
Not at all the market was down because a notorious guy or cabal (Archegos Capital Management) decided to toy with the market. Read full details of what happened on Friday from financial Times, yahoo finance, aljazeera etc. Similar thing is happening in Japan today.

I think say na only me. Down by 17% overall that's like $1,200. As if I knew it took profit on all my Green stocks yesterday (sold all my green stocks yesterday and just left the money there) otherwise it would have been worse today. But thank goodness I had the cash to buy them back today at cheaper rate and got into other stocks I have been eyeing

ROKU
ROBLOX (Got this at $65)
Churchill Capital IV

For those who are swing traders, averaging down will enable them exit their positions quicker than tie down capital for a longer time. It all depends on their strategy.
Exactly! Why tie your fund down for months when you can average down and exit especially when you buy a bad stock? This is exactly what I did to some of the stocks I ignorantly bought in February, now I'm getting some of them back at a super cheap rate
