Travel / Re: FG Slashes Visa Fees For US Citizens by ifymadu: 12:15pm On Feb 07, 2020

No, I do everything by US MAIL.
Next time, pay for the naija visa online and naija embassy will send it to you by us mail. It's very easy, fast and convenient.

Oh, that's great. So you just enclose a USPS self addressed priority envelope? I will visit their website, knowledge is key indeed. Thanks for the info

Hey, don't forget that some of us come in with Nigerian visa on American passport.
To be frank, it is safer that way.

I rather travel with my Nigeria passport than going through the Atlanta stress of getting a visa. Just have your US P in your back pocket.

Stop misinforming some gullible youths with whatever you see on social media. The luxury spec of that ride is about a 100,000 dollars which is approximately 40million naira. That figure you see might well be a code and not the price.
Nairaland / General / Trump Administration Expands Travel Ban To Nigeria And 5 Others. by ifymadu: 2:58am On Feb 01, 2020
Trump Imposes New Travel Ban On Nigeria, Five Other Countries

President Donald Trump has imposed a new travel ban restricting immigration from Nigeria, and five other countries in an expansion of his administration’s policy blocking travel from certain nations.

In line with the new policy, citizens from Nigeria, Eritrea, Myanmar, and Kyrgyzstan won’t be allowed to apply for visas to immigrate to the U.S.

According to the US government, the policy was designed to tighten security for countries that don’t comply with the U.S. minimum security standards or cooperate to prevent illegal immigration.

The Wall Street Journal reports that in line with the policy, two other countries, Sudan and Tanzania, will be barred from participating in the diversity visa lottery, which randomly awards green cards to 50,000 immigrants from underrepresented countries annually.

According to US officials, the new restrictions are set to take effect on Feb 21 and will apply only to new visa applications. Immigrants who were issued valid visas before that date will still be able to move to the U.S.

Nigeria and the five other countries listed will join a list of seven nations that faced significant travel restrictions under President Trump’s original travel ban which was issued earlier in 2017.

Politics / Re: Osinbajo: How We Drafted APC Manifesto In 2014 Focusing On Social Investments by ifymadu: 6:05pm On Jan 27, 2020
murecool:
Adds: Social safety nets not acts of sovereign kindness but sovereign obligation
                 
Convinced that government owed a duty to the poor, the weak, the vulnerable and those who cannot work, the APC in 2014 included in its manifesto a social safety initiative to specifically address poverty amongst other things, according to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN.
 
Prof. Osinbajo stated this in his remark at the 5th edition of the Airtel Touching Lives event held in Lagos at the weekend.
 
According to the Vice President, “listening to each story of a life touched this evening must remind us of the many others who need our help, our comfort and our kindness. The poor and vulnerable always need a voice. 
 
“In 2014, Mr Wale Edun, Prof. Pat Utomi and I met at Pat’s home to write portions of the manifesto of the APC. 

“We all agreed that a fundamental pillar of our party’s plans must be to create a social safety net for the people. We were convinced that government owed a duty to the poor, the weak, the vulnerable and those who cannot work. 
 
Continuing Prof. Osinbajo stated that “social safety nets are not merely acts of sovereign kindness; they are a sovereign obligation - a responsibility.” 
 
Making reference to the Social Investment Programmes of the Federal Government, the Vice President said the effort of Airtel was commendable especially in complementing the work already done by government in tackling poverty.
 
He said “today, the social safety net scheme is the fore of our Social Investment Programmes where we are feeding about 9.5 million children in public schools in 34 states across Nigeria; we are giving monthly cash to about nearly a million households as part of our conditional cash transfer scheme; we have given, as at the last count, 2.2 million loans to petty traders whose inventories are no more than N5, 000.
 
“We have also engaged about 500, 000 young men and women, who have been unemployed (over different periods of time) under our N-Power programme. But we are still very far from touching majority of those who need help.
 
“It is clear that to do so, we need far more resources behind that programme. This is why the work of social conscious companies like Airtel is so vital. Bridging the huge gap between what government can do and what is left to be done.”

Edu3Again:



So u agree that Christians worship God & moslems worship allah, proving God & allah are different

God is an English word, also known as Allah in Arabic/Islam. if they have said Christ, then it would have been different. The Jews are not Christians and they call God too, it doesn't make them Christians...

Yes, we should also ask them why we have " God" in the national pledge since Nigeria is a secular country and not a christian country.

Is God a Christian word?

Iran has sent a message to the US and it's allies that their missiles can evade the US air defence system after all, and this should call for worry from all involved.

This is a huge statement.

The US does not have the air defense batteries in Iraq. Check your facts...

RIP to the dead. I really wonder what happened to Katsina state, it used to be one of the friendliest and most accommodating states in the north. Did my NYSC there in 1997/98 and really enjoyed my stay there. The people were very nice, especially in Kaita LGA where I did my primary assignment and Dutse Ma (Orientation camp). I really wonder what went wrong, so sad.

I only showed you facts with figures, please counter me with facts and figures and stop showing you are intellectually empty and a zombie.
