^^^^Oh that was caused by western sanctions against the country. They were made to suffer for the 'crime' of snatching their land back from white thieves.  Thankfully, they're now recovering, and the land is more evenly distributed.

Where did u get that from? Lands evenly distributed indeed.

Mods we need your help here

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-240241.9408.html

Since con artists go in-thread for their adverts, it will be good if we all help reporting them. Who knows, your bro or best friend might fall victim of their voracious tommy.

Cleaned that yesterday, yea i noticed what they do now. . . dropping it in between posts.

Thanks for keeping an eye on that.

cheers![/quote]There is nothing wrong with ur spelling but i can't stand people who use:innit.

[quote author=FAST-LINK link=topic=788681.msg9421159#msg9421159 date=1319623008]I still do not understand how possible it is for the so-called agents sell or have access to the dates when it takes ones passport number, details and visa fee of N22,400.00 to book appointment.
I repeat, no agent sells date, whoever tells you he sells date is not telling you the true, dates are not transferable and you won't even know when your cancelled old date is released.

perhaps, it is only those who are on emergency but not sure of getting help through the expedited visa request channel.
one can still book a normal appointment and there must be emergency request, whichever one, some people gotta have means of livelihood through honest and hardworking means and I'm sure you have no objetion to that, or do you?
people that pay, know why they are travelling, been denied a visa should be a deterrent since there're always two sides to everything,
innit?[/quote] Oh well . . .

paniki:
Your sour vitriol will not change the situation. Omo oso will be an illegal immigrant. He will not be able to take part in the formal economy which is highly leveraged on credit. If he manages to make an honest living, he will not be able to pay tax which is unlawful. By overstaying his travel visa and remaining in SA means that his entire stay in SA will be on an illegal foundation. Giving a few examples of people staying in Nigeria illegaly and using that to excuse illegal Nigerians in SA is just plain silly. Your bitterness is making you look dumb.

That is all he is, don't even take him seriously.

BBC exposed Britain ? Completely hilarious !!
You obviously have no idea how the British speak their own English.

Take ur time and watch that program before you start your ant-west rant.

[quote author=FAST-LINK link=topic=788681.msg9420787#msg9420787 date=1319619529]you are failing to acknowledge the fact that you need access to the embassy before you'd get to meet with your interviwer, inasmuch as I acknowledge the fact that what determines the success of your visa interview is your answers to the questions been asked, I also believe that access is the first thing you need, hence people sleep on the internet.
thank you[/quote]There is no need for people to sleep on internet IF people like you did not make a mess of the system, it was supposed to be stress-free and free but since some 'agents' started selling the slots it becomes a nightmare.

. . .even with all 'access' to the embassy one can still be refused a visa, so successfully booking an appointment does not guarantee anyone a visa.

[quote author=FAST-LINK link=topic=788681.msg9420608#msg9420608 date=1319618158]Hello justwise, sometimes, people book the wrong visa class appointment for their uniformed clients just because they are just desperate to get one as it is hard to differentiate fresh from the renewal appointment of the same visa class when the date is gotten except you call the embassy to confirm for you, moreover there's also a way an appointment would be booked, it will reflect on the cgi website but won't be found in the consulates' database.
very bad.
[b]Guess that has answered your question? [/b]And to be honest, luck is also a part of it and that indeed has been on my side and I wish it to everybody going for visa interview on this site.
thank you![/quote]That did not answer my question at all, booking the correct/right appointment doesn't guarantee anybody visa success, how you perform at the interview will determine whether you will be given a visa or not.

[quote author=FAST-LINK link=topic=788681.msg9419731#msg9419731 date=1319604092]hello ojdollar,
what I meant is that you can't buy an appointment date at the embassy as mentioned by sapele.
you can only schedule an appointment through their web portal.
if he had said some people collect money to help you schedule, yes it's understandable but to buy a date at the embassy, unless expatiates on, i'm afraid it's definetely fake, even a staff there has no access to it.

and asking me to do it free, No.1, I'm only gonna work for you by monitoring the calender alongside with my team and get a date for you as soon as we get the alert.
No.2, this is time cunsuming , sleepless night and total useless during the day.
No.3, it defenitely a service and every service deserves a payment and I don't think you'll object to that.
The only thing I try to do is to be considerate depending on the level of effect been put in the task.

finally, many people have succeded in securing an appointment date through us and I bet almost all of them got their visa except a lady that lied to me that she was for renewal instead of fresh and hence refused enterance into the embassy due her appointment showed renewa, though. she was the one that created her profile anyway,

Now, my advice is always be careful while filling in your details and confirm every detail before sending.

if you are interested in our service, please do contact us, it's  what you can do by yourself anyway but if you think it's not forthcoming,
holla us at usaappointment@yahoo.com
thank you[/quote]Why are you trying to link booking an appointment to visa success?

Cap28 Hates Gadaffi

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-506716.0.html


Now Cap's HERO is Gadaffi

Gadaffi has even become cap28's brother Leader too - He is one confused boy 

very confused human being indeed.

@234Ent

you really need to see your doctor, this is how serious mental prob starts.

felifeli:
You obviously know very little about the people of Libya. I give this so-called revolution 3 years maximum to become a fiasco. If Al-Islam is not dead before then , I see him coming to prominence again in Libya ,mark my words.

Meanwhile let us see NATO countries try to make capital gains from this. They dead bodies will be carried away to their countries by the dozens every week.

You really know how to rant, NATO countries are already making capital gain of it, their oil companies are back in Libya, they are getting all the juice contracts. What exactly are you going on about?

felifeli:
You obviously know very little about the people of Libya. I give this so-called revolution 3 years maximum to become a fiasco. If Al-Islam is not dead before then , I see him coming to prominence again in Libya ,mark my words.

Why did they not  safe his daddy and the rest of families?  He will be crushed if he steps foot into Libya. He will not last up2 three yrs, you mark my words too.

felifeli:
But this Saif al-Islam is very intriguing though. First he was reported captured in Tripoli and later escaped. Then he was reported captured in Sirte, .Again he escaped. He must have some ogbonge babalawo behind him.  

I wish him luck though. He could become the worst terror the West will ever confront in future - together with the poor people of Sirte and Bani Walid, bombed by an army of occupation into submission. There is no "liberation" yet in Libya ;only a gathering storm which  may have the entire African continent uniting against the West.
Whatever Gaddafi has done in the past seems of little consequence now considering the hopeless animals that he has been contending with in Libya. The clear fact is that HE WAS MURDERED in full television glare, and with assistance of UN and NATO.
Long Live Gaddafi . Even your death  showed us the real face of Imperialism ; Long Live Gaddafi  

how many African countries will unit against the west?

[b]

pro01:
I read somewhere that Saif Al-Islam actually managed to escape to Sudan, where he is now under the protection of the Justice and Equality Movement, a dreaded militia group in that country. Since he still has access to billions of dollars stashed in secret accounts (presumably), I hope he can build an entire army of avengers to launch and sustain a retaliatory battle with the support of his Sirte tribal elements to destabilize the NTC's government and kill some of the maggots that were dragging his father and brother's bodies on the streets, putting them in a meat freezer for all manner of miserably morbid nonentities to glare at, and savagely celebrating their deaths. He has nothing to lose anymore, he should dedicate the rest of his life and resources to bringing misery to the mob (and their western backers if possible) that effectively wiped out his entire family. This is not a matter of what Gaddafi did or did not do during his time in power. This is about the righteous anger of a true-born son that MUST AVENGE the humiliating massacre of his family. He has my best wishes for that noble mission.

[/b]

Dream on! We will see how long he will survive, where did u think he banked those millions? In Africa? I don't feel sorry for him, he is lucky to be alive.

Siena:
^^^ You're right, JW. Voting gets rigged in real Nigerian elections, with all the security measures in place. On Nairaland. it'll be worse.

thats a bit harsh on 9ja

Siena:
Collins, thanks for clarifying things.

Justwise, sure, by all means put this up for debate. A pol[/b]l will also be a good idea, it'll be interesting to see the results.

Ok, i thought about the poll but then i like the way people are giving reasons [b]F[/b]or or [b]A[/b]gainst the idea rather than clicking yes or no else alot of ''visa agents'' will log on with their numerous IDs to vote [b]no to the idea

we we:
I agree with you on that, personally i don't like the way he died

Sometimes i wonder how people reason, For someone that killed his own people, waged war against another nation, sponsored terrorism all across the globe, established training camp for suicide bomber (as far back as late 70s) etc the list is endless. You didnt like the way he died? 
How do you want him to die?
Cos naija is so bleep up that we dont even good from bad?
so he gave libya a taste of wealth, Libya has the highest GDP in Africa,  Blah blah,
does that gave him the audacity so evil?
Do you self a favour read more on people b4 you comment.

Yes i don't like the way he died and i'm not Gaddafi's fan, Gaddafi should have been arrested, locked up, trialed and jailed, that is how it should be done in a civilized society.

If Gaddafi should be killed cos he killed then those who killed him should be killed as well.

frosbel:
There are some people who just post without thinking.

Who will see the way his dad and brothers were killed and not be full of rage.

I am totally against violence but this guy is aggrieved.

We now have terrorists in charge of Libya and the once secular government kicked out.

So much for progress !.

Don't be too quick to conclude. Gaddafi wasn't a saint himself, we all remember how he came to power.

East:
Gadhaffi and his family even though they live in luxury, did extra had to make sure that each Lybia
feels a taste of wealth. nevertheless whether my daddy is a killer or what, i will always stand for
him no matter what. Thatz a son's cry for his father.

I agree with you on that, personally i don't like the way he died, he should have been treated better but Gaddafi brought all this to himself, no one person is bigger than the whole country.

He should have stepped down and give peace a chance.

Gayigaskia:
Imagine a guy who has never lacked anything in his life, now seeing his father dragged on the streets, a guy who has lost everything including his family; do you blame such a guy for standing up as someone who has nothing to loose?

Yes now he will know how it feels to be treated like animals just as his daddy dead to others. Libya does not belong to him and his family alone.

juzme:
I think I have to differ from this suggestion. Auto business is different from travel agency business in the perspective I will be looking at it. Vehicle or the parts are more of physical things you will like to see before you buy them but Visa or even flight ticket is more of abstract when you cannot verify it until you use it or got to your proposed destination.
And the situation Nigeria is today, recommending any travel agent or visa agent may not be the right thing to do. 419ners have physical address and their business registered.  There are a lot of people who are desperate to leave Nigeria at all cost.
The Canadian visa agent I heard about here in this forum advertised some media in Nigeria which made some people to believe and trust them.

While i wait for approval, Siena do you mind if i open this idea for debate? juzme raised some points there.

Siena:
Justwise, this is just a suggestion, please feel free to delete it, if it's inappropriate.

In the Auto section, there was a thread started, whereby all dealers (and regular traders of parts, accessories etc) were invited to email the Moderators with the following information:

01) Their full names.
02) Their business details.
03) Their telephone numbers (if applicable).
04) Their mobile numbers.
05) Their email addresses.
06) Their office / home addresses.
07) Their website (if applicable).

This call for compliance was by no means mandatory, but it allowed for more confidence and transparency in traders. There was a deadline for compliance, those that failed to comply were still allowed to trade, but of course, potential buyers were able to draw their own conclusions for non-compliance.

Those that supply the requested data can be announced at a later date. The Travel section needs this mare than the Auto section, seeing as there are more sharks trawling the murky waters. Those that advertise as "Ticket" or "Travel Agents" can also supply their Certificates of Accredition. Travel Agents definitely have to be registered, those self-styled ones are simply con artists looking to ensnare the unwary. "Visa Agents" are con artists, and threads offering such services should be deleted. Unverified persons leaving their details to be contacted off the boards, should be viewed as suspicious. More so, if someone opens a thread, asking for advice, and these unverified persons leave their details, saying "call me," or "email me."

This is my take on things.

Thanks a lot for this, i think its a good idea. I will consult my boss. . Dis Guy and super-Mod then stick it.

Thanks again.

peacekind:
I intents going to Singapore

Visit their embassy website and find out the requirements for a Nigerian wishing to visit Singapore and see if you can meet the requirements.

peacekind:
visit bro, i need your help

Which country do you plan to visit?

honey86:
mr justwise, for a September entry, is April/may too early to apply for a visa?

That is too early, late June or early July seems more appropriate.

ilurveit:
Ok great. Thanks a bunch!!!

No worries.

ilurveit:
Ok this is not really a travel question but it is related to the old Nigerian passport.

I have an exam coming up day after tomorrow for which I've been told the only allowable ID I can use is my passport. (No Driver's license, National ID etc). However, I don't currently have my E-passport with me as it's at an embassy being processed for a visa. I DO have my old (MRP) passport which doesn't expire till next year. I'm wondering if that's still acceptable as a valid form of identification in this country or has it been phased out?

Sure u can use it, i don't think it has been phased out yet.

kennybuda:
@imperiouxx bro your right, alot of tout here on nairaland anywhere if they cant stop i will block my yahoo mail account shame on them

I get more than enough on daily bases, some claimed to have seen my email from NL, it doesn't bother me, i save all the scam emails i get from here, once in a while i copied all of them and block then start building up the list again.

AlminaMia:
Hello there,
I'm a White woman married to a Nigerian man, we have kids together. I found out a few months ago that my husband has cheated on me with an Igbo girl in her late 40's (she's single, no kids). She stayed at mine while I was away on holidays with my kids for several weeks. She left loads of "symbolisms" cruxes like shapes in a "clear, almost invisible type of oil greasy liquid" on all my Walls, furniture, etc and also some ready made meals in my fridge. I felt I was going to die, I passed out for a moment and went through hell. I was completely devastated and heartbroken. I'm not very familiar with the Igbo culture. Can anybody tell me what those symbols mean and why were there for? My husband told her he doesn't want to hear from her anymore, yet she kept trying. I just hope her evil witchcraft doesn't cause us any harm.
Thank you very much for your time and thanks in advance.
Regards

Drama queen!! why not ask ur hubby who cheated on you? He invited the ''igbo'' woman into the house and u are here moaning about ''witchcraft''

UgoBabe:
YAWN, as i dont respect your intellect[b] i could give a fly!ing fruck about what u say abiout me,

You got that right, i don't have much to say about you because there is nothing about you.
