All lot doesn't add up. I believe she knows how to drive and with the access to the car keys She'd have easily wined up the windows and locked the doors if actually she felt threatened, start the car and drive to a safe location.

A kidnapper will leave his car keys with the victim inside the car... Makes no sense to me

At Ojuelegba... before I know area boys where all over demanding for owo Ile (money for the land). But thank God before they could start spoiling things the car started and I zoomed of almost breaking one of em legs. Lagos is not a good place for your car to break down

Marriage will break you down into different things positive or negative. Just pray you find the right woman

Thanks to everyone
I applied from Poland.

I almost gave up about studying in Canada because I had stories about challenges applying outside Nigeria but someone in this forum encouraged me, even when I find it difficult to provide a good SOA. All I provided was my retired dad's statement with just 500k. Though the PhD is funded but just approximately 17CAD per year.
To those still awaiting approval never give up, I would also help with prayers am also available to help review SOP, this would reduce the burden placed on the gurus in the thread.

Congrats... testimonies like these are encouraging

Sugaro:
I actually went to Gtbank to see d manger and see if they can issue a letter but they said the highest they can do is to block the money In the account(hence it won't be accessible to u) and then write a letter stating the MONEY will be AVAILABLE for TRANSFER but CAN'T SAY if FOREX will be available only Buhari can say dat. Lol. However, they can raise a draft in CONVERTIBLE CURRENCY ! But FIRST BANK said they don't issue draft

I also went to my bank standard chattered bank... they said they can't issue such letter they would only advice I open a dom account....

I did and have replied.

Acknowledged

Thanks

Hello.
@Austinpee4

I've been trying to send you a mail, and its being coming back as undelivered
I dont know if you got the mail i sent

Thank you for your time

@Austinpee4 please can you send a mail to gentlejosh@live.com so I can send you the SOP I drafted

I'll be most grateful sir

Austinpee4:
I wrote all that with the thinking that your current job was in electrical engineering. This is where it will be difficult. Your current job is not engineering related so you will not be able to relate it to your intended program.

Also depending on how long you've been working in your current job, you might want to find a related program to it and leave the Avionics that you seek to study else you risk PURPOSE OF VISIT refusal. Your current activity/work MUST align with what you are seeking study permit to study.

A VO will think, he graduated from electrical engineering, left that and worked in a different field and now want to go for another one in canada?

As as how nau? Based on which logistics?

No worries... I'm a HR person, based on logistics I don't think these will be an issue

Austinpee4:
A very important question you would likely answer either with evidence or a strong statement of intent/purpose is the rationale behind the decison to go for this program.

You didn't mention if you have any work experience but notwithstanding, the aviation industry has a general shortfall of professionals and most times, there is always need for more of them. I guess you are going for a pgd/pgc in the field and if you can REALLY expantiate further on your choice of this program, you possibly could stand a good chance of getting a study permit.

Let me give you instances to work around when completing your SOP.

1.That since most canadian university(ies) majorly do not accept HND for masters, you decided to apply for your program to enable you get an entry level knowledge for the aviation industry. Also give the citation of PGC/PGD being tailored to meet work place demand.

2. Make reference to the fact that the aviation industry evolution over the past years have seen the combination of all major engineering aspects with electrical engineering being a critical part of it. Dwell on the Avionics since it is the electronic system used on aircraft, artificial satelites and spacecraft which also reflect your intended program. The key thing should be that you know exactly why you are going for the program.

3. Highlight the general nigerian aviation sector in comparism to an environment with more cutting edge technological infrastructure both for learning and practicals. Make factual conclusion on how your study will generally impact you going into the aviation sector and how you intend to make such knowledge applicable in nigeria upon return.

Finally, you can also use the fact that the location of the International Civil Aviation Organization(ICAO) headquarters in Montreal, canada will avail you the opportunity to relate and study from seasoned experts from all part of the word while you study and project your aviation desirables. Your PURPOSE of going to canada must be convincing before you then consider all your financial capability(ies).

Hope these will be helpful. All the best to you.

This is indeed insightful
I've been trying to draft my SOP and I've been having challenge linking my current job to program I want to apply for

I work for a labour outsourcing company as the human resource support manager (IT/welfare) but as an electrical engineering graduate, how do I relate my kind of Job to these program I'm apply for

Nice piece

But why only MMM... We have plenty of them arround now

The only issue with a manual car is the Lagos traffic... Anything to boost your ego, make you feel incharge, have full control of your car is manual.

You can even save fuel with manual, when at top speed just press your clutch and allow the car to glide your engine will rev @ 10 which is fuel economical and maintenance of manual is low but at least you will need to change your clutch disk atleast every 4 month for sharp movement (that is if you stay in Lagos)

But if you reside in Lagos, please go for automatic. Lagos is a stressful town dont add to the stress biko

Who nailed it

seguno2:
Accrued pension rights for real workers or political jobbers like former governors, speakers, deputy governors etc?
Abi how much is the pension of the real workers compared to these useless leaders who steal from us while in office and we continue paying them after they leave office?
Why are we so dumb and dull?
No wonder we elected the most dumb dullard as our president!!!

My thought exactly

Pregnant women through their behaviour makes a man wish he never touched her

I know its truely not easy being pregnant but its also not an opportunity to deal with the man

Maybe your husband is going through some psychological trauma. You can help him come out of it.

Let me buy land here... And hope it make fp

Only if the killing mechanism has being removed... then its the most beuatiful... else...

This isn't Oshodi, op upload pix of oshodi

thank you...
this is not oshodi please, i pass through oshodi, it was quite calm

lol

This guy is a weakling, a confused idiat, very indecisive fellow, he's not worth you at all... MOVE ON... he feels he has power over you, prove him wrong... make that decision and I tell you he will come begging... the truth is its not going to be easy at all... but that's the only way to bring that mofo down

Boko Haram claims another life

RIP Bruh

[quote author=toye440 post=48471593][/quote]I'm not idoma... but I can feel the stench of your lie.... so please just stop talking trash... in this present day of media stunts and publicity who will indulge in such act and not get publicized

toye440:

Keep shut abeg... this is 2016

The Six stages of deception

Deception is a process by which wrong becomes right, and right becomes wrong. It’s a complete paradigm shift of opinions, standards and morals that is achieved softly, subtly and often takes a generation to entrench into society.

If you want to know what I am talking about, find out your mother’s views on things like sexuality and marriage and compare them with yours. The contrast in opinions does not necessarily prove that she is old and antiquated; it may instead prove that you have been deceived.

There are six stages of deception.

● The shocker
● The outrage
● The discussion
● Tolerance
● Acceptance
● Veneration

If I wanted to popularize the most unimaginable thing in our society, say like bestiality (the practice of having sex with animals), I would follow these steps.

I would select a forerunner to drop the shocking message on an unsuspecting public. “We should start having sex with animals,” he would announce on radio, TV or in a newspaper.

That is the shocker; the bombshell, so to speak. It would inevitably be followed by outrage. The forerunner is abused and demonized by the bewildered public. Every respected leader in society comes out to slam the lamentable reprobate who dared suggest something so obnoxious.

The forerunner defiantly defends the practice. His critics come out even more scathing. But the forerunner knows exactly what he is doing. He is setting an agenda. Many people don’t understand the effect of continuous exposure on the human mind.

I will give an example most of you will understand. If you ask a girl out and she is not interested in you, the best thing she can do for herself is stay away from you or your words. If she continues listening to you, what was initially unthinkable becomes worth a consideration, then acceptable. Many ladies have fallen for guys they swore never to date just because they didn’t understand the law of continuous exposure.

Once the bestiality message reaches the third stage; discussion, the forerunner has done his job. At this stage there is a big debate over bestiality; with most people still slamming it, not knowing that they are falling into a trap.

I know for a fact that homosexual groups abroad were giving money to people fighting homosexuality in Uganda. Then they would also fund those pushing for it. Initially it didn’t make sense. Until I learnt how deception works. What they wanted was to keep the subject of homosexuality in public debate. They know exactly what they were doing. The more people are exposed to it through discussion, the more it becomes less obnoxious in their minds.

That leads to the next stage: Tolerance. At this stage people say: “I am not going to have sex with animals, but if someone chooses to do it, shauri yake (that’s his problem). Others will say: “Who cares what people do behind closed doors?”I have heard these statements being made by people who clearly don’t understand what they are up against. This is the stage at which science kicks in to ‘prove’ that some people are born with an inherent attraction towards animals and they cannot help themselves.

Consequently, bestiality is included in the UN Human Rights Charter and activists are given a new pursuit. Economic and travel sanctions are used to twist the arms of nations that still forbid it.

Then we start hearing phrases like: “We cannot tell people whom they should love.”

The main purpose of this stage is to ensure that bestiality is legally accepted.

The next two steps are aimed at entrenching it at a social level.

The penultimate stage is Acceptance. At this stage bestiality becomes a conventional alternative way of living. All the outrage has since dissipated. This is the stage at which those still opposed to it are called bestiaphobic (the word will be coined) and they are considered antiquated, old-fashioned, intolerant, dogmatic, religious zealots, bigots…. you’ve heard all those words.

This is the stage at which there are bestiality rights parades in major cities.

Then we are reminded that the same book in the Bible that forbids bestiality also forbids eating pork. Then ‘intellectuals’ think use that to rubbish the Word of God, and make it look ridiculous.

The final step is Veneration. This is the stage at which the people who practice bestiality are praised. The liberalist media (which includes almost all international channels) subtly promotes them as ‘cool’, intelligent, exposed. That’s the stage at which celebrities ‘come out’ to reveal that they are ‘proud bestialists’.

Then bestiality begins to win fresh ‘converts’ everyday because many young people will do anything to be seen as ‘cool’ or to be associated with some Hollywood or football star.

That is how you corrupt a whole society.

That’s how previously unthinkable things like atheism and homosexuality and all other forms of sexual perversion have taken root in our society.

Unfortunately, in Uganda, homosexuality has reached Stage four (Tolerance). But in the West, it has gotten to the veneration stage.

You have probably heard of the black homo American footballer who “made history by becoming the first footballer to come out”. What’s historical about someone proclaiming their perversion?

So many other people are being lauded in the media for no other reason other than their homosexuality.

Your mother may not be outdated after all. You may be deceived.
