Fees went up from 250 to 25,000 in 2005.

chinybelle:
Past is when?
Uniben as at 2006 paid 5k school fees
Even up to 2011 they were paying not more than 7k

You no fit drive this kain car without armed convoy now. Any car wey come too close dey find trouble. I doubt if the guy go dey drive am out sef. Diamonds are forever, diamond crusted Royce too must last forever

Donald3d:
I will roast the person .I no fit even buy motor wey go they make my heart cut every minute .
Thats why I dont have an Iphone , I no fit they touch my pocket every minute , besides there is nothing so special about all this things jare .
Most people wey there buy all this expensive stuffs don't use their functionalities to the maximum

In the past? I paid 250 in LASU.

chinybelle:
Uniben was so cheap in the past..like 5k per year
Today I heard it up to 14k but still very cheap compared to other federal institutions

For Argentinan visa, you pay you after your visa approval.

jayfierce:
It was when I was asking for receipt of a fee I was yet to pay that he remembered I had not paid. had to wait till the next day for banks to open so I could pay the visa fees.

What I am thinking is how someone can apply for a Visa and not pay Visa fee at the point of application.

Nawa for you oo. Malee dey read nairaland oo, no let her send British royal guards to dey pursue you o.

Amarabae:
I find it funny how a 70+yrs old man is still a Prince, Queen Elizabeth should vacate the throne for him. what kind of greediness is that.
Goodmorning.

Very true. At the end of the day, we do not have an idea of how 'his' car got into her garage. I'd rather not comment on something I know thing about.

x240:
Your plate number is your personal property. That's the way it is since 5 years ago. If you sell a car, you have to remove the plate number because the plate number is registered to you and not to the car. So the case of him selling it is a lie.

They do reveal the identity of car owners if you view code. After this story broke, I checked for my cars and I saw my names listed. I still do my believe the story that pastor Sulieman slept with Stephane, but that car was registered to him. He could have sold it to someone else, he could have gifted her and he could have given her after having a three some with her (I hope not)

kenney222:
I understand you quite perfectly, However false evidence is false evidence, Lagos state Mvaa Websiste does not reveal private information about car owners, it never has. Saying otherwise to sell a story is libel and a suit may be in play. like is said i'm not going to defend previous accusation only highlight the falsified evidence behind this one

The report said he was arrested and died under interrogation. Looks like a murder to me. No matter his crimes, is it not better to ask how and why he died? Well him sef don gain the same meal him dey dish out to people.

Codes151:
For!? What did he do?? Don't get it wrong! I just don't trust security or people in uniform! That dude fit don d run things with them and sth leads to sth they decide to close his chapter... hmmm just saying

Yep, so at that 'last time', we were going to be refused, we contacted our contact person in our destination who went to complain at their ministry of foreign affairs. They called the ambassador who summoned us to Abuja on a public holiday, issued the visas in my presence and forget to collect visa fee. It was when I was asking for receipt of a fee I was yet to pay that he remembered I had not paid. I had to wait till the next day for banks to open so I could pay the visa fees. So I was not really denied that visa but I was going to be denied if I had not taken the steps I took.

OmoBendel24:
#Synchrony.... The first time, and yet there was a last time? Anyways, this is Canada! Get your acts right, leave no stone unturned "underratingly" in your next application. Regards

I'd show this to her. Thanks

ladylco:
Sir there is always a first time! this only helps to guide and make one do things appropriately. The first time I and my siblings were refused France Schengel visa, I was called on the phone by the Consular who apologized and asked that I come to the embassy with my passport and that of my sister, I sent my sister there our visa were issued less that 10mins when she got there.

So tell your wife not to hurt anymore, its one of those things. As someone here mentioned, just do things the right way and you will get the desired result.

In addition, you can include in your letter to the embassy that you wife is hurting as a result of the refusal hence her decision not to reapply alone with you, as she has never been refused visa and this refusal came as a big blow to her history of visa application.

Am very optimistic that if you do things right this time you will get the visa, you wife may even be called to come for hers even though she didnt apply.

All the best.

Thanks for your advice. My wife is still hurt with the refusal, this is the first time we were refused visa. The last time it happened, the ambassador almost got sacked. So she said she is no longer interested in going. I am also in touch with my people in canada, they have resent the invitation and sponsorship letters. I want to notarized the photocopies of our landed properties documents and marriage certificates. Just in case the VO was skeptical when we submitted them at first.

ladylco:
This time in your application, ensure you give detailed explanations on your PURPOSE OF VISIT and TRAVEL HISTORY, also try to convince the VO that all document are authentic and verifiable. Try as much as you can to defend your previous reason(s) for refusal. You can explain each of your previous trips and tell the VO that never on any of the trips did you violate any immigration rule/law neither did you stayed beyond the period you were permitted to stay. I think you should also apply with your wife only if she is included in the sponsorship letter and letter of reference from the organization. If she is not and you really want to apply with her, explain why you want her to accompany you on the trip and that you will bear the expenses for her travel even though she has the capacity to bear any of her travel expenses and include documents that will back her financial/economic Ties as well.

All the best

I did push for the documents, but the stress of organizing the conference was too much. And I was weary of the 120 application days. Anyways, I have the documents now.

jayfierce:
What you just talked about is futuristic and falls under "Purpose of Visit". Travel history talks about past trips. Since purpose of visit is not ticked I have to believe that its because of a past event e.g. you "needlessly" traveling with your wife for past business conferences.

Getting a Canadian Visa is not sheer luck or an act of random occurrence. It's all about purpose and proper planning. I thought you head the operations of the organization in Nigeria? Why didn't you push for the documents before applying?

And I am sure you felt cool then right? Like this is some expensive shii. How things change.

pendusky:
Nice development...

I still remember when I boarded Aero with 5k in 2010.

I applied Feb 7th. It took a month and yes, it was paper application.

Anonymoushack:
iguita,pls when did you apply so we can get a sense of how long your application took and was it paper based

I support this guy even for presidency

Thank you oga boss. I think I agree with Kokorita though. I am supposed to be sponsored on the trip but was yet to get the sponsorship letter. The organization had also not sent the name of the hotel we will stay in Toronto. The same organization sponsored all of my previous trips and I put that proof in my application. I plan to reapply before the end of the week though.

jayfierce:
I believe they ticked "Travel History". This doesn't mean that you haven't travelled. It could mean that they have issues with the way you travelled.

Hello folks, I picked up my passport yesterday from the VSF with a rejection letter. Let me explain my application. I am planning to visit Toronto by end of April with my wife for a conference organized by an global volunteer organization that I head the Nigerian operations. On the rejection letter, they said we do not have sufficient travel history. Meanwhile, I have visited Tanzania, Ghana, South Korea, South Africa and Argentina. I also have transit visas for Kenya, South Africa, China and Egypt. My wife has visited South Korea, South Africa, Dubai, Argentina and USA. She also has transit visas for South Africa, China and Egypt (We usually travel together). We have also never been rejected for a visa application so this is a big hit. My wife now hates Canada (lol) and has refused to reapply. I am reapplying because the organization has already paid for my flight and hotel and I can't let this waste.

I do not know what we did not do right but I plan to reapply before the end of the week. I will be happy if anyone can give me pointers of what I may have done wrong and what I can improve on in my next application.

Thanks

@Ibis and @Ugosample, please share your experiences, I am planning a road trip for about 20 people in May 2017

Wait, did I see my area in that list? Una dey give us light before? See these jokers oo.

Still cant get over this guy's death. I dont know him from Adams but why do we keep killing ourselves? Why do we kill our promising ones? This guy just started life, just started building a family and then some 'insert insult here' had to sell fake drugs to him? My goodness.

If you travel constantly, you will understand the need for the jets. Even business men that do not earn as much as they do have jets.

olagunjumariah:
Then y are they buying private jets?
to spread d gospel across the globe? hmm?
Double twale for your confusion.

But the OP just did a simple analysis that shows that the school is been run at a deficit. Is that not proof enough that the fees are already subsidized?

PietraK:
This writer is playing on our intelligence.

Tithe, offering and donations are all in the same category. They are God's money not meant for business but propagation of the gospel of Christ, keeping the house of God and taking care of the needy.

Why should people keep up donation for University projects when the church is charging huge fees. Make it affordable for the common man and see if God will not open the windows of heaven to provide for the cause.

Our mega church Pastors have failed to learn from the Bible they carry and preach.

Mathew chapter 25 has shown us the fate of our so called righteous Pastors and Men of God.

Let us consider what the bible says in Mathew 25: 37 - 46.

37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

Our so called MOGs are not targeting the[b] least of these[/b]. They are not making education available and affordable for the least of these : the poor.

They benefitted from the tithe, offerings and donations made available by missionaries for schools and hospitals. Yet, when it is their own turn to make impact on the next generation which the poor makes the bulk, they have refused to educate the least of these.

The Writer has failed in his attempt to manipulate our thinking.

If church business is not lucrative enough to make educatoon affordable for the poor, Why is it lucrative enough to manage 2 - 5 private jets?

He says expensive universities isnt unique to church universities.... Should churches operate on the same wavelenght with profit making institutions?

Where he failed totally is his submission that thr purpose of setting up private universities is spiritual. He called it Spiritual revolution.

No it is not. This is a greedy revolution.

Worth the way the OP wrote, I knew (s)he was an insider. People just talk ignorantly but I am happy with your conservative analysis. Despite not making money from the venture, the man went on to build another in Kwara, why? Because he wants to raise a new crop of leaders. Has he been perfect? NO. Successful? 110%

Conner44:
This car can come to Nigeria but not to lagos abeg...

Imagine a danfo driver scratching (I didn't say bashing oh) this ride...

If it happens on third mainland bridge, the driver of the danfo will just come out of the bus, smile at the driver of the maybach, instruct his conductor to leave the bus for vio/police and refund the passengers... Tell his wife farewell


Then he will happily jump into the lagoon

Case closed

Oga driver, e don do. Maybe it's English you need to learn and not driving.
I know you drive daily on that road, now you do not need to go out of your way to prove that I don't even own a car rather pay attention to road signs. Bros, rest ehn, it's ok.

nurey:
thats what am saying you dont drive a car or you arent observant. Third mainland is a federal road, i dont know wetin concern lastma or LRU with over speeding on that road.
for your information over speeding isnt a crime, excessive speeding is the crime 101km/h on a highway rated 100km/h is over speeding but not excessive speeding.

now to show you that i actually drive on the bridge while you dont even have a car, from island descending the bridge, at the divider the signs are there car is 80km/h, once you ascend the bridge, it is 100km/h after descending oworonshoki where oshodi turns right and those going to ketu goes straight, it turns to 60km/h the bridge before ogudu is 80km/h. when next you passing check, the sign is placed on the street light/pole on the divider because your keke napep cant exceed 60km/h doesnt mean thats the speed limit.

Oga driver, don't be childish, I do not need to drive to see the road signs well placed on the roads. I can be driven and still see the signs. And that people drive 100 KMpH on 3MB does not mean that is the speed limit. When next you drive, watch out for road signs, you obviously do not. When Latma arrests you, you will scream victimization/ bribery. On 3MB, there are different speed limits for different vehicles. Watchout on your way home (That is if you really drive).

nurey:
when last did you pass the bridge? are you always observant while driving? because i still passed 3MB this morning and i saw 100km/h for cars and around 80km/h for lorries.

have you even driven a car before, 60km/h on a highway/freeway is extremely slow man.
