A friend who works at government house Benue is lamenting, they use to have their cut from the sharing of money to people. He said this governor is so stingy and has stopped sharing money to parasites which was very common under past administrations.
I told him it was good for the state, he should put the state first before himself.

Hmmm!
Second tenure will be a tough race for the governor especially that he stopped the sharing of money to politicians in the state and has blocked almost all channels for theft.
They will fight back.

Politics / Re: Umahi To Meet Cement Manufacturers Over Prices by joebeckz(m): 5:53am On Feb 18
Talk as usual nothing will change.
The change should start with favourable business environment.
Inflation was caused by hasty policies from the federal government.
Everything is expensive now. I just got an inverter, my friend who got this same inverter a year ago got it twice less the price i got mine. Nothing is affordable again.
Rice is so expensive also, all boils down to the federal government's policies. Too many anti people policies was hastily implemented without measures to ease the outcome.

Our economy is dependent on dollar and importation.
As long as it soars.
Forget it.

Stop cheap talk.
Nothing will happen until you and Mr president do your own part.
Fix the economy and stop pursuing companies, they also feel the heat.

Sports / Re: Super Eagles And Super Falcons Players Back Alex Iwobi After He Was Cyberbullied by joebeckz(m): 5:38am On Feb 13
Iwobi was used too deep.
He is a creative attacking midfielder on days he is switched on.
People who have never kicked a ball think it is as easy.
Take a look at Ola Aina who has been very fantastic in this tournament turning out to be very poor in the most important match of the tournament. He played like who sleep with woman 15 minutes before match.
Some days are good, some days are bad. Both goals came from his flank especially the winning goal.

Iwobi is fantastic abeg, his game against Angola was spectacular. Descent against Cameroon too.

The coach has the biggest part of the blame for our loss. He shouldn't have started Chukwueze who isn't as physical and dangerous on the flanks like Moses Simon. He shouldn't have defended too deep after scoring a goal. A goal is a risky thing to defend. See how they pushed when they were loosing. Our midfield is not so coming from the side was our strategy so far. Why did he play Chukwueze then? There was no threat all through until Moses came in.
Cameroonians studied our games and hit us.
Our coach didn't have a solid plan.
Individual brilliance helped us not to concede more goals else it would have been more.
Iwobi did what he could.

Well done Team.
I just wanna see Amunike coaching our national team. I dislike this oyibo coachs style of defensive football.
You can't absorb pressure for half an hour or more after leading.

Otiwaikuku:


Like how much can one use to register as a distributor?
It is free. Just visit any cement depot and ask for their sales department. Tell them you want to register.
They will tell you that u cannot buy blah blah... Cos of the scarcity.

Tell them you are not asking for allocation. You will do self collection and also plant Direct delivery from the plant.

You do not want depot load. That way they will accept to register you.
Don't disclose that you are gonna be retailing.
Tell them you want to supply to retailers. And you have money for three trucks plus a big market.

Requirements are CAC
PASSPORT PHOTO AND I'D CARD.
That's all.

After registration, pay for plant Direct.
They will deliver to you.
Have a shop ready to take all 900 bags in a good area where cement will sell.

You are sure to make 1 million on a truck at the moment cos of the hike and inflation.

Good luck

Sports / Re: AFCON2023: Iwobi Needs To Be Replaced For The Final - Sunday Wale Adeniran by joebeckz(m): 11:54am On Feb 10
Iwobi plays a silent role people don't see.

Take him out and see how we get some pressure and error from the substitutes replacing him who are to better the game.

He might be lazy but he has accurate passes.
So far he's been doing what he's asked to do but needs to add energy and mark the ball a little more and most importantly stop loosing the ball at dangerous places and giving the defence task of covering his mess. Otherwise he has good passes.
The coach sure knows what to do.
There is a reason he keeps using Iwobi.

Check his replacements.
They caused us problems whenever they came on the pitch.
Aribo has been useless.
Yusuf caused a penalty.
I didn't see any significant improvement brining Yusuf or Aribo.

What have they done differently and where are the results to show for their performances?

We just do not have the right replacement for iwobi at the moment.
Lets keep him on the pitch. At least he won't cause us penalties, he just has to stop loosing the ball and we will be fine as his passes are fine.

Politics / Re: Sanusi Backs Relocation Of CBN Units, Departments To Lagos by joebeckz(m): 11:08am On Jan 25
Sanusi was a fantastic CBN governor and i trust what he says.

Did you all read the part he mentioned that CBN employees were mostly Political Abuja big men's connect?
They would not want to live outside Abuja.

I personally know my classmates who got CBN jobs years back. Their parents were top political appointees or friends of ministers and governors so I believe what Mr Sanusi is saying 100%
You hardly see an ordinary Nigerian graduate without connect working in CBN.
I know Three bothers in CBN who's father was a former house of reps member.
Is it another of my classmate who got a weak 2.2 degree who also works in CBN because his dad was one time Taraba state APC chairman.

They will fight back cos they live in their parents mansions in Abuja, are used to the Abuja soft life and get promoted through their parents connect.

They do not care about the job but the salaries and other packages. They are lazy to work, sometimes they go to work 3 times a week. Or close early.

Alot is happening inside these juicy offices filled with political connect.

I have seen this with my own eyes and know alot of my mates in these offices, CBN, FIRS ETC....

Corruption will always fight back.
I support this move..
They should relocate and get to work or resign.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Should I Keep My Job Or Travel To The UK by joebeckz(m): 7:54am On Jan 01
This is what I think.

Every passing administration in Nigeria have only worsened the state of the country.
Do you wanna remain in this situation?

Do you have job satisfaction and do you earn enough after deduction monthly expenses from your salary to save at least 300- 500k?

If not.. Leave Nigeria.
Marrying will make your savings dip further every month. You will be under pressure and that wouldn't be nice. Plan to leave Nigeria to Australia or Canada or even the USA..
I don't like UK but it's a matter of choice.

One thing is certain, after you gain stability in these countries and you know what you are doing. You will save at least 1k dollars monthly after expense.

You can pick a wife from Nigeria, try to get a nice woman for yourself now. So she go through the phase with you in prayers and to support you with words of encouragement.

My reason for choosing Canada especially is because it is easier to gain stability and immigration documents faster.

UK and Australia ain't bad either.

When you finally finish your one or two year program. Come back to Nigeria and marry your fiancee that would have been with you during this phase and begin to process her papers.
She will join you as dependant.
She will also work and add to your savings as one family.
While she is in Nigeria waiting for you to get done with school. She should enrol in programs that would prepare her for the new country in relevant trade.
Hair making, etc.

If you happen to get a medically inclined lady, it is an advantage to your progress.

Age shouldn't rush you into marrying now.
Proper plan and execution will be worth your wait.

May God direct you.

The Ordinary Nigerian is passing through the hard times after the removal of petrol subsidy and the floating of naira. Look at the amount of money that is to be spent on frivolities under this government, it is shocking and it’s not something that any Nigerian should be proud of irrespective of the party you support. The level of economic hardship among Nigerians has worsened drastically since May 29. Inflation has sent the price of basic commodities out of reach of many ordinary Nigerians, thereby deepening the poverty yet we fight one another for these rogues. All we hear is we will do this and that, the government has continued to insist that the hardship faced by Nigerians is necessary for the country to achieve economic prosperity shortly which we know will not happen with this mentality and spending on stupid things when these moneys should be used for something of more importance.

Billions on car park. God have mercy.
How many trucks of cement and roofing cost billions?

May God will cast terrible illness on these wicked people.
I will never pity a Nigerian politician.
They are heartless.....

You wey de support them. Shishi you won't get. Keep being tribalistic. Everybody go suffer am.

Business / Re: Currency Redesign, 43 Items, Naira Float… Major Policies Of CBN In 2023 by joebeckz(m): 7:52pm On Dec 26, 2023
All these polices at once caused hardship because proper plan weren't put in place to cushion effect of the hardship to follow..

No one is saying do not remove subsidy, or redesign. Neither are we against naira devaluation bla bla bla but all these things done at once for a poverty stricken country where people struggle to feed and no plans in pipeline for ordinary Nigerian.
How wicked could our leaders be..

They were so fast to implement these polices but slow to implement the ones that will affect you and I like minimum wage.

No Nigerian is directly benefiting from removal of all these subsidies.
We might not even see the benefit in a long run.
We should have just been stuck with the life of subsidy, so we will know that despite poor leadership, we have a low cost of living.

But now like this.

PlushyRealtor:


Nice advice. Bro my question is, is it possible for someone on a tourist visa to get registered in a school in the USA?

It is possible to get admission, then you can pay fees or deposit. Once you have your receipts from school. You can apply for a student visa while still active on tourist visa. Then your tourist visa will be canceled and u are issued a study visa.. Read this below 👇 from the Internet to further convince you.

If you are in the United States on a visitor visa, you can still change to F-1 student status to reflect your new circumstances. If you want to do this, you will already need to have been accepted to study at a U.S. academic institution, and fulfill all the other requirements of the F-1 visa.

Plenty of persons i know did it. It is very easy.
Very very easy.
Once you have admission and have paid deposit.
You are good.
Do it from inside USA.

Visit with your tourist visa and do the remaining. It takes a short time. Matter of two weeks or less or slightly more.

Firstly, no amount of magic will give you paper next year. You don't need to exaggerate to get quick solutions cos we have good knowledge of student pathways even for In-demand professions. Except you are switching Visa type to COS or it's like. That being said.

You should double your efforts to make more money at the moment.
Your wife can't do anything now cos the hours she is getting for work won't sustain her should she chase you out of the UK.
She needs you at the moment to survive UK bills but might have plans to deal with you when the time is right. Therefore do not relent also.
Save for that time.
Look for a pathway that will make you independent.
Look for good direct streams of COS.


MUST DO
Get a USA visa
Get a Canadian visa
Get other visas. (NOTE You will be granted these tourist visas easily from UK cos of your status)

Why do you need these Visas?
You will need them should the need arise.
If she decides kicks you out.
Fall back to Canada or USA via student route or other pathways.
All you need to do is fly into these countries with your visa, look for a school and apply for a certificate program of one year and and migrate legitimately using the various streams available for students.
Therefore do these things quietly.
Your kids deserve to have a father who can still send them stuff and stay alive.


Most importantly, Don't forget to be a good husband to your wife. Women are not always the issue.
Some women have seen shege from Nigerian men and when they get to societies that have their interest at heart. The quest for revenge sets in.

OP.
WERE YOU A GOOD HUSBAND BACK IN NIGERIA?

Travel / Re: Is this true About many other West African Countries when they apply for Visas? by joebeckz(m): 11:36am On Dec 26, 2023
Before you blame these countries for denying us Visas.
Lets be honest with effect of bad publicity.
Nigerians abroad have resulted to yahoo yahoo, love sham fraud, and all forms of illegal doings.
These things have affected our reputation alot.
Our musicians also glorify yahoo yahoo in their music, alot of Nigerians are dishonest. We find a way to rip the next person we come in contact with.
This is festive season. Look how prices of goods sky rocket, we look for every opportunity to get more money for ourselves even if it lays burden on the next neighbor.
We are selfish, we care about nobody but ourselves, we dent our image, our leaders are worse and we are not left out cos an average Nigerian is thinking of ways to better himself no matter the means. Give an average Nigerian a chance to be governor for a week. He will steal alot not to be poor for the rest of his life. That's the mentality some Nigerian take with them abroad and this has created a doubt that affects even the genuine Nigerians.

We didn't help ourselves, we don't accept ourselves, we don't love each other, we only steal from one another, why should we expect another country to accept us.

I have been to smaller African countries,and I understood that Nigeria only has population and resource as advantage. If these countries had same privilege, they will be far developed because they have values,respect, less corruption, accountability and alot that we lack.

But in spite of all these shortcomings.
We still have a good visa approval rate.
Why I say good is because we have a huge number of applications to all top destinations monthly.
Some smaller nations have less people applying cos of affordability.

So let's thank God for the numbers we are getting.

But above all, we need to change our ways when abroad.

Honesty is a virtue we should all wear.
Stop drugs, stop scamming people in the name of they scammed our ancestors. You are simply a thief.
Stop over staying, apply for visas with genuine intentions.
You have pathways that can make you stay longer. Choose those pathways if you intend to stay longer.

Don't apply for tourist and abscond.
You are giving the next applicant a tough time cos of your actions.

I am excited for the young man Osimhen.
You could literally tell that he is as young as he claims going by his looks while playing for the under 17. He was such a baby.
This means he has many more playing years to achieve greater feats.
However i pray he leaves his current club and go where he would be appreciated and recognised.

I watch sadly how the fans in Italy give more credit to Kwaraa.

Even his recent assist was much talked about by Africans, they won't know his worth until he leaves. And osimhen leaving Italy will take almost all of the black / African fans away.
I am sure we mostly watch Napoli and Italian league for the sake of osimhen. Personally i watch only Napoli games and sometimes Chukwueze.

Once he leaves, i dump those channels.

Best of luck lad
