Prolong war on the so called terrorist groups has so far successfully achieved one thing worldwide: left economy of a nation fighting it in a mess. USA almost went bankrupt last year as a result of war on terror, the debt ceiling had to be raised, temporary solution. This is a country that was once economically buoyant before war on terror campaign, is this country that we're calling upon to come and rescue us? There is no need for us to permanently institutionalise terrorism in Nigeria by taking hard stance approach. [b]Let's call and listen to them first. [/b]Simple approach. But the fear of Islamising Nigeria are making some Nigerians uncomfortable this idea.

@Adebyte. Thanks I appreciate. After completion of my course in November, I decided to come to Nigeria in December since my next course starts in May. I've just been working voluntarily at my cousin recording studio in Lagos to skillfully gain more experience from my sound engineering course. I really understand your reason for the advice but is it really advisable I portray myself as been employed in naija considering the fact that my next course in SA starts in May and my proposed easter holiday is in April which means the duration of my stay in naija prior to both my visit to the UK in April and to go back to SA is less than 4months from my arrival in December which would make employment unrealistic within this short time. Yes you're right, I could apply from SA if I was going for xmas holiday since I'll be back there in May but I'm going for easter holiday and I'm here in naija now. Is it a disadvantage I'm applying from my home country compare to applying in SA? And about the 8days duration I intend to spend in UK, why is it advisable I put in for 2weeks as my first time since I intentionally want to spend 8days? Will the ECO have any problem with shorter duration? I'll appreciate more guide and advice. Thanks I appreciate.

Hello guys, I'll like to ask a question but first let me explain my situation. I once had a UK student visa in 2004, had difficulties with an aunt and my brother who was to take care of my accommodation and decided to return to Nigeria. However upon resolving this issue, i tried going back to England but was stopped at the point of entry and my visa was cancelled (literally with a huge red x sign). The reason for the refusal i believe was because they were skeptical if i was a genuine student considering how short the time was from when i left England the first time to the second time when i tried going back. I'm currently a US resident and i'm thinking of taking my vacation in England to visit my brother after my graduation in May. I guess my question now is, what are my chances of securing a visa to the UK?

hi everyone,i'm trying to help a friend of mine who's in a mess right now.
this friend of mine is a nigerian who got married to a british citizen in the uk and was living with him there on a spousal visa.
unfortunately,her husband died and she decided to come back to nigeria to deal with her loss with her family and friends around her.she didn't realise that she could still apply for indefinite leave to remain in the uk as a bereaved spouse and has been in nigeria for 3yrs now.she now feels ready to go back to the uk and has enough money to last her for awhile.is there a chance that she could still apply for her indefinite leave to remain in the uk now?and how does she go about it from nigeria?

You moderators at Nairaland should be ashamed of yourself. The boy is looking for helps and I wrote him in the language he is more conversant in, and somebody just delete it. That's very childish I must say.

Walala:
You people are so miss informed and you let the White people tell you that you are criminals and are spoiling your country's name. The bible says he that is without sin should cast the first stone. AMERICANS ARE THE MOST CORRUPT PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. Have y'all ever heard of WALL STREET. Was Madoff a Nigerian? Was R. Allen Stanford a Nigerian? Between those two dudes, they defrauded people of a total of $72BILLION and that is way more than Nigerians can ever defraud in total.

We are not criminals and we need to understand the propaganda that is going on to blacklist us. Stop calling each other names of what we are not whether Yoruba or Igbo. The drug game is dominated by Americans and Mexicans but yet we call each other drug lords. Identity fraud has been going on since identities existed even before Nigeria knew what a computer was.

Obama has surrounded himself with some of the most corrupt bankers ever in the History of Mankind but no one calls him corrupt like we call our own president. The cabal in Nigeria is not even close to the Wall street cabal in USA.

We are no where near perfect but neither is the EU or USA so don't let them blacklist you. RISE AFRICA AND SEE THEIR PROPAGANDA >

menia:
I applied for UK visa with my husband and daughter July last year, our applications were refused and we appealed the decision in September. My husband and I lived in the UK for about seven years before we moved back to our country. The hearing of the appeal is set for 6 February 2012, however, I received a call from the British High Commission yesterday 24 January 2012 to come and submit our passports. We went to British High Commission today 25 January 2012 to submit of passport but we were given a slip to come back on the 22 February to collect our passport. I don’t know what this mean. Can we still go ahead with the appeal on the 6 February or what.

My partner of 2 years has a complex case and I just want to see if you any advice for us as I feel the legal advice we are getting, may be money driven rather than about realism.
He came to the UK in 2002 as a visitor, he then met his now estranged wife in 2003 and sunsequently overstayed until 2005 when by this time they had their first son and married here in the UK. At this point they sought legal advice. They had another son post marriage. In 2009 he was sent to a detention centre but got bail and was signing in twice a week. His solicitor in this time had put in an application for a visa which was received. During this time him and his wife seperated. He was re-arrested in 2010 and held in a detention centre based on breaches of bail conditions. They said he had not submitted an application as stated, where he had proff of receipt letter from the Home Office in this time of appeal and investigation he was told he could voluntarily return to JA and apply from there or stay as an inmate at the detention centre and face the possibility of his appeal being rejected and being presented with a Detention Order. Against my advice he returned and now as oif Jan 2012 he is still there and we don't know whether the 5 year ban applies to him or not.
I just want to know what type of fight we have and the grounds on which he can apply and whether there is even a chance of him returning to be with us.

Lanquart:
Thanks a million times "Justwise" for the insult.But a million name calling from you will not stop some players that are traveling this week and the others that will also travel after them.
In as much as I don't want to join issue with you in particular,but with reference to my well advertised visa procurement both here in Nairaland forum and in the print media,I can vividly remember your only complain then was that the visa fee was on the high side and some other people also pleaded that I should bring the fee down which I dutifully explained to them why the visa fee was that amount because I believe in "what is worth doing is worth doing well"
It is unfortunate that you are now terming it fraud because I refused to yield to your demand of (bringing the fee lower).All the same I thank you for having time to contribute to my thread,whether good or bad,I appreciate.
But for your information,we have succeeded in getting more than 12 visas for people since then from different embassies here in Nigeria and those whom their visas were denied for one reason or the other,we have successfully returned their international passports to them and some that made deposit,we have also refunded their monies back to them.
I stand to be proved wrong
Nevertheless,I like the watchdog role you are playing in this forum but that will not make you assume that any visa issue is a scam.

nycnyc:
Did anybody found cheap/convenient way to call back home? I recently moved and still spend too much time on the phone. all international calling seems to be either expensive (regular way) or inconvinient (calling cards). and quality on calling cards often is oquite bad. calling card seems the way to go for now since it's not expensive but i hate PIN dialing. any tricks i didn't learn yet?
