ferdimako:

There is no country...u are to be here if u so much love Nigeria.

just because I left Nigeria doesn't mean that I don't like my country... I believe that Nigeria will be great someday...

ferdimako:

but he said what he noticed...maybe u noticed too but kept it in ur mind.

ok continue bashing your country, I guess when other countries join to insult you you'll be happy.

mrnilobrawn:
Hello my eFamilies, hope y'll are doing great.

I must say that naija int'l airport na LAWMA WASTE DUMP. Dubai is great.

Touch down Dubai 7:25a.m (4:25a.m. Naija time).
IOM representatives came was waiting for me at Dubai and they gave me a first class Marhana treats...love.

The person stayed with me me after a short tour at the airport and gave me free wifi for 1 hour too.

Boarding time she boareded me first and gave me fare well.

No questions asked in dubai during boared/checking, mayb because IOM ppl were there with me.

Those still planning to apply, do so ASAP those waiting i wish u ALL positive outcome.

Mobuchi i dey wait u for sydney.

guys we should be careful how we insult our dear Country on public forums such as this. so out of the five or so international airports, there is nothing good you could say about them? Change begins with Us you know. if we don't respect our country then how do we expect other people to respect Us?

shapoh:

shapoh:
hey pal, i also need one of those health related with svp for sept. Pls send the name. Thanks

huh? I don't understand you. can you rephrase the request...

laminaria:
tanks to @missakomaye: I hope so too, @futuredon: not at all abt any bogous (fake docs) refusal was just base on home tie, not filling some section... I have schools n courses that reaches to adv diploma(community health related) whc qualifies me for SVP...one has sept intake and all have Feb next yr intake too...so am tinking if Pretoria won't see desperation in me for that sept intake.
yes I can get everything set for sept intake.

and try to write a strong SOP. also if you can ask your sponsor to swear an affidavit that you will return...

bossladymo1:


I am not in Brisbane. I was just asking for the contact details of anyone who sells and sends Naija foodstuff.

hahaha... me sef dey find that person...

bossladymo1:
To anyone in the Brisbane area.

Pls do you know anyone that sends Naija foodstuffs to other parts of the state? This ijekuje don taya me jare lol

@bossladymo where do you get your naija foodstuff in brisbane?

@laminaria I'm so sorry to read what you wrote... I'm just sad at the moment... but know this... this is just a trying time. it will surely pass and the good time will come. dust yourself, get up, reassure yourself that you will succeed. reapply, but this time ask your sponsor to swear an affidavit that there is job waiting for you when you graduate...

mrnilobrawn:

Is that not a long thing? I only certified mine in court and it was ALL accepted.

This is the procedure I followed when certifying mine before I left.

@Step070 for the international passport authentication/certification go to immigration office with photocopies of all pages of your passport after they certify it you can then take it to Foreign Affair or Court...

izykvision0:
Hello All,

Just got word from my case officer requesting for already submitted police clearance certs again and polio cert for my 1yr old son. Anyways will resend them. But how do I get polio cert for my son since he already has been immunized and has it in record in his immunization booklet.

Thanks

go to ministry of Health, Fed. Sec Abj. Tell them you need the polio included in the yellow fever Card... thaz all

opiacino:


The main area I go to buy African foods is in a suburb in Brisbane called Moorooka. Its called Onan Global foods. Google it there. Some Asian supermarkets carry Indomie- the Indonesian version, but its pretty much the same as Naija own. Buying African foodstuffs is a little expensive here, but if you are desperate, it's an option....

I was born and raised in Brisbane, so if you want any more info msg me 0414 880 593

Nice... Futuredon take note... you must cook that egusi... lol

gogochocolate:


Madam Bosslady, it is always nice to read your messages . How are you adapting to the weather in Australia ? I hope it is not too harsh looking at it from the Nigerian Perspective. Congrats on the Job offer. I am so happy for you. You are giving us the guts to make the move. I would like to know recruitment formats for most Australia,do they write tests of they just conduct interviews. Is accent posing a problem in your day to day interactions with people there.

lol... when you hear a Nigerian using "thingy" just know that life is good... lol

cherries1:


how many are in a carton? I eat noodles once in a week but will check for it here; maybe buy and share with someone.

40 I guess... 5 in a pack. 8 packs in a carton

bossladyMo:


This week was even better sef....we did Chinese majorly, and the ingredients are readily found around here. I found cod fish (Panla) sef.....already smoked, but by the time I seasoned and fried it, add am to shrimp fried rice, d tin make sense die! Lol. Someone from within is sending me some egusi and elubo soon....added to the panla I just discovered and offals/goat meat from the butcher.....with beta Amala to fele!....chai I can't wait.

Just so everybody knows, their 'Indomie' here is not the same as back in Naija. The seasoning here is kinda different, and e no dey reach #Mschewww. Don't try Maggi Chicken Noodles o, you will hate yourself. So tasteless! I threw out the entire batch I made less than 1min after I made it. If you can bring ground pepper or fry egg, then mix with the indomie, you will enjoy it that way.

Go to garden city, near coles(ground floor) you will see an Asian store that sells Mi goreng Indomie Noodles... a carton is $15... cheaper compared to buying the 5 in one pack from coles, woolworths and the rest...

laminaria:

futures on, surveyor1, equilibrium, iriferi n others.... pls respond

4 Your name
the rest, I'll suggest you leave them blank... how you are going to access funds? bank transfer...
all in all you need medical students inputs... Futuredon over to you...

bossladyMo:


Hey hey!

Accommodation - No biggie. We signed a lease on a beautiful apartment today. Fully furnished 2 bedroom townhouse, ac, internal laundry, store room, patio, gated complex, duplex-like (rooms up, living area n kitchen down), close to a gazillion shops, main road and bstop (as we dont have a car yet)....all for 300 per week...which is one of the perks of livibg in a regional area. We got temp accommodation for 220 a week (gst included), but shared kitchen amenities. It's a seven day adventost convention centre, and the caretakers have been very helpful...driving us up and down and giving us food and a stroller......most people here are very nice. We secured it before arrival, but didnt pay unyil arrival. I found it via the Townsville online yellow pages after plenty research...as others were quoting higher prices, and airbnb was doing skoin skoin cos of the Nigerian factor.

License - although my license has expired, I was told I can still convert it before it is 2yrs expired...so anyone with an expired one and finidng hard to renew in Naija can still get one here...but confirm with your state tho, if not qld.

Jobs - We only actively started looking on Thursday...bombed seek already...expecting call backs *fingerscrossed* But we have been out in the middle of working days, and eveyone seems to have something doing...just a few people ans mothers laying around...so I gyess unemploykent isnt much of an issue here..not perfect though.

Can anyone answer why their female school uniform skirts are so short here? Lol...e be like sey make i add like 3yards lol.

mmmmm @bosslady, if you remember, I said Aussies are nice when I first came here... now you are saying the same thing...
school uniform short maybe na for una side ooo... for mt gravatt and surrounding surbubs the girls skirt na wedding gown...

happytbaby:
Will an international drivers' licence obtained in Nigeria suffice?

FutureDon:

Just a little tip from me... For those of you coming in please get your self A Nigerian Driving License.. And for those of you just entering, hope you have your android and/or apple iphone? download the translink app from the play store and apple store... it will help you around... That's all for now...
and 1 more thing... get your self a gocard or else you'll be ripped off like madt...

FutureDon:

bossladyMo:
EVERYBODY!!!

Just to quadruple confirm...lol...Naija immigration does not require a visa label abi? Has anyone encountered any issues at the airport in recent times, because of no visa label?

Equilibrium Prechear Mrnilobrawn Iriferi Surveyour Futuredon Nwokenna

no they dont... just print your visa grant letter. they will ask you for it. they have systems that they use in checking it
