A Pakistani man was confronted by a Nigerian man in a viral video making rounds on social media. for selling a fake iPhone to a Lagos Resident.

The visibly angry Nigerian man who confronted the Pakistani man for selling for a fake iPhone to a Lagos resident, alleged that if tables turned and it was Nigerian who did it in their country, he would have been lynched before taken to the police.

The Nigerian man who took photos of the passport of the Pakistani man, said the incident occurred at Abraham Adesanya area of Lagos.Here is the video below;

The same guy was in Ibadan last week and sold the fake iPhone to someone for 150k

[b]WHAT ARE SOME SUPER PRACTICAL THINGS ONE NEEDS TO DO IN THEIR FIRST 30 DAYS IN CANADA.[/b

Here are 27 things you should do, in no particular order:

Get your OHIP (Ontario Health Insurance Plan) sorted out. Or the health plan of which ever province you are moving to. Note that it takes at least 3 months to get it so you may consider getting private insurance while you wait.
Get your driving license. Hire a private driving instructor to train you, even if you have decades of experience. Road rules are different here (sometimes weird)
Research the best schools in your city and enroll your kids. is trusted with their annual school rankings report.
Get a Presto card for commuting while you get your license sorted out. You can use it on local transit and GO trains and buses. Tap on and off you go.
Understand how price matching at groceries works and start doing it. You will experience very quickly that customer service in Canada rocks! And it’s a shame to see how some people abuse it.
Get a membership at COSTCO. Big savings on bulk grocery shopping. Helpful for big and small families. Just make sure you have cleared out some space for those massive jars and containers.
Open up a bank account. RBC have a great newcomers deal where they patiently explain the whole process and new banking terminology to you (“Fixed Deposits” are called “Guaranteed Investment Certificates” for example). TD bank have a great app called My Spend which automatically tracks and categorizes your spending. Handy for the thrifty.
When you get a credit card USE IT. Don’t use your debit card unless you have to. When you pay off your credit card on time it improves your credit score which will be important for you later when buying/renting homes and cars.
If you have kids, apply for Child tax benefits to get generous income from the government to support your kids (O Canada!)
Got big savings from your home country? Plan to save to a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP). You get a great tax return when you do this.
Want to save for your kids university education? Look into opening Registered Educations Savings Plan (RESP) to also get government grants to your child’s education.
Staying at an AirBNB? Find a realtor to get you the best deals on a house to rent (for now). It doesn’t cost you anything. They will get their commission from the landlord.
Too busy unpacking to cook? Register with Uber Eats or Skip The Dishes to order in. It will help you scan restaurants in your area that suit your palette.
Planning a direct flight back to your home country on Air Canada. Don’t forget to sign up for the Aeroplan rewards program to rack up those miles.
Choose a car and find three dealerships that sell it. Bargain for the best deal. Don’t be fooled by “No interest loans”. There is no such thing as no interest. They build the interest into the price.
Once you have a car, make sure you get road side assistance. CAA is popular, although my credit card also gets me access to my banks outsourced road side assistance service.
Research on the best deals for your car insurance. Insurance depends on risk factors tied to your age but also where you stay. Brampton has the highest car insurance rates. Being a new driver in Canada will also pinch your pocket. TD bank have an app called TD My Advantage that tracks your driving habits and discounts your premiums with them, based on how you score in your driving.
Buy winter tires. Recommended over all season tires. It’s a hassle to change on and off twice a year, but it’s worth it. Else you will discover how dangerous driving on the snow is the hard way.
If possible, wait till Boxing Day (Dec 26) to buy things like furniture and appliances. Super big massive sales at this time.
Rogers, Bell and TELUS are the big telecom companies here. There are cheaper alternatives. I suggest going for quality and use them to supply your mobile, internet and TV needs if you want reliable services. You get what you pay for. It is generally known that telco is comparatively expensive in Canada.
Start learning hockey, baseball and basketball. Else you will feel clueless and left out of many Canadian conversations.
Buy a good winter jacket. Be prepared to spend a little extra here. Get the boots and gloves too. I love my Canada Goose jacket and Columbia boots.
Join a local Facebook group that is linked to your area. Great source to get advice from real people. For example I stay in Brampton, and my wife is part of a group called “Brampton Moms”. Use the group to get advice and referrals on anything you need. And contribute as well. Give and take.
Find and register with a family doctor. Use your Facebook group to ask for good doctors around.
Find a good dentist. Dental is not covered by government health care so you must take care of those pearly whites. The dentist I go to schedules and consistently reminds me about my check ups. Get dental insurance (through your company or otherwise) and fix everything wrong with you and your family’s teeth NOW before it gets worse. Else you may end up spending 1000s over your private insurance limit. I personally know people who suffered this way.
Register for an online CRA account so you can receive tax notifications digitally. Online self serve tax tools like Turbo tax can automatically pull your tax details from it, making filing your taxes a breeze.
Watch out for fake messages from the CRA warning you that you owe money. “Click here or call back to fix your problem else you will owe a lot of money”. Those messages are all fake targeting innocent newcomers.
What about your job?!?!?

That’s a massive discussion on it’s own.

Check resource on how you can take a practical approach to your job search Canada.

Can my fellow Canadians think of anything I missed out?

You won’t get this advice at settlement services

So fee free to share this with someone you know is stressed out about moving to Canada. They’ll love you for it.

Yes they do.
One year college certificate.

Are u sure of this? They evaluate ICAN ATS as college certificate not ICAN ACA except if they have changed their evaluation recently.

Beak time, see tweet screenshot below for responses from our seniors in the house.

shogz89:
will a diploma in ifrs from ACCA get a favourable score?

I doubt it cos dipIfrs is just a paper, most likely it will not get a favourable outcome

Nollywoodlove:


Hello. Thanks for bringing this up. I went through their website and it seems like a perfect program. I have a few questions, and I hope someone has answers.

I hope to get better info from all the ogas here. Please.

Free materials available on astranti. Wes evaluates the cert positively. Two people got positive outcome as one year college certificate. As an ACA, it will be a walkover for you. Good luck

melarose:
Hello wonderful people of God. Please I seek urgent help! That’s why I left the express entry forum to come here. Please are there people on here who got their COPR and PPR having used ATS certification issued by ICAN? Someone told me IRCC doesn’t recognize it and I need to clarify this before it’s too late sirs and mas ejo edakun! P:s I already received ITA and I have been searching the other forum for my answer since morning but all to no avail. It’s urgent thanks

Good day, what is the outcome of the assessment of your ATS? It will be recognised by IRCC if the ECA report gives it a Canadian education equivalent.

Bella172:
Hello, you can send me a pm as to getting your transcript from OOU.

Please anyone how do i start the process of getting my transcript from OOU.

Hi, I don't have a reliable contact but I can guide you on the process. Your faculty/dept play a major role here. If your FAC/dept have uploaded your results on a computer system or the hard copy is within their reach, then you are lucky. The official amount is 50k excluding courier. If you are in Lagos, I would advise that you visit the school to initiate the process and then handover the rest to your department's officer to follow up for you.

TEECANN:


@rainazoe

Yes, I began processing the CPA Ontario's Internationally Trained Accountants' (ITA) path registration.

I quickly realized that my ICAN ACA amounts to little in the conversion process as I was expected to practically challenge most of the papers in the CPA Ontario exams all over (Biko, not at this ol' age again ) so I kind of abandon the process (the painful part was all the kish I had expended to get registered)


it will end in praise IJN!

Hopefully, ICAN will conclude the MRA with CPA Canada very soon. I heard this from the ICAN President himself at a forum some weeks back in Abuja where he mentioned that he just came back from Canada a few days earlier to tidy up the MRA with CPA. He also said the MRAs is at an advanced stage. He also spoke about the conclusion of MRA with ICAEW, which was circulated to members a few days later. I also read sometimes early this year where CPA Canada President or a representative( can't vividly remember) mentioned that if they conclude with ICAN, members will be granted same priveledges given to ACCA members. We pray that this happens faster than we anticipate. I personally have decided to wait and see how this pans out.

lk1234:
Congrats to everyone who got ITA recently.

Also starting off on this journey and need clarification regarding evaluation of ICAN certificates. I understand WES evaluates "ICAN ACA" certificate as " two year professional study of accounting" but also add the remark "not comparable to any Canadian education credential".

See the response from IRCC twitter handle.

Ifeoma77:

Hi, I'd prefer if you asked your questions here, so others can benefit.
Thanks

Hi, the PM is not for a question but for your assistance. I guess you are based in FCT.
Many thanks.

[quote author=Ifeoma77 post=71737215]


@ifeoma77. Good morning, please I sent you a PM. Thanks.

Inenghe:
just sent a PM

I ve responded.

I was just informed by a friend that ICES accepted soft copy of his transcript from ABU.

Fm90:
Goodafternoon everyone..I am a bit confused concerning my wes evaluation.I ..

Call their customer care line and insist on talking with a supervisor. Explain your situation to him/her. Please, ensure you have your tracking number handy.

Saintp:


OK. How easy is it to get PTA? Is it something I can walk into the bank and get it same day?

Yes, sir. You will get it the same day. Walk in into any bank (preferably the bank where you have the naira) with your Int'l passport and visa.

Landed seniors, we need pictures oo

PrettyMomm:



Wes sent mine to the same school about 2 weeks now and the school claims to have responded via email but Wes says they are yet to receive the verification. Really don't know what to do anymore.Please help

If possible, contact her again. Plead with her to resend the mail again. Also bear in mind that WES does not update one's profile immediately get receive the response to the verification.

Sthill5:
Good day

My question is for ex students of OOU

I got email from WES that they sent verification request to OOU and I've been trying to call Mrs Kaka for two days now but to no avail..please is there any other person you think I can reach out to?
Thank you in advance

Probably she is out of office. Call her after the sallah break. Be rest assured that she will do your verification as soon as she sees the mail or when you get her on phone.

IMMIGRATION MYTH BUSTING: �

Asylum Seekers crossing at the border are delaying other immigration applications. 

FACT: ✔

Asylum Seekers do NOT delay other applications.

wurdz:
You may want to take out her number from your initial post as she may not like it

The number was shared on the part 3 of this thread. I screenshot the post and came handy after 9 months of waiting for transcript to be sent to WES. Meanwhile, the number should be an official line cos its always off after office hours.

My wife applied for a transcript in Olabisi Onabanjo University since last year September and it was just sent last week after 8 months of travelling back and forth. We paid 50k for the transcript and also had to pay 15k for FedEx now WES has sent verification back to the school I don't know if it was an email or a parcel.

It mostly email they send to OOU for verification. Call Mrs Kaka (0705 211 2362) and be polite as much as possible. She is the one in charge of the verification but have ur ref number handy b4 calling her.
