Am not trying to justify or remove Nigeria name that they might not get involved in this Haiti scam but what am actually saying is that let be realistic with ourselves , The western world has seen that anything bad that comes from Africa is always from Nigeria but anything Good that comes from Africa is from other countries, i can boldly say that even the Americans are the one who might have started the Haiti scam, come to think of this

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8517243.stm
please check the passport country very well and tell me what country is there .ö, but as long as it is scam then it is always Nigeria , Like i always say Nigeria scamers are not equip to have a credit card payment, just as BBC said and i quote "Scam e-mails tend to list only mobile numbers, which a bona fide charity would steer clear of" Now if truly it was a Nigeria Number Let them print the Number out also as they did to the passport

Please lets not blame the west, some of us Nigerians are BAD, there is no excuse for it, lets face OUR problem and stop shifting blames

A big shame on anybody here giving excuses for this evil crime. Keep blaming politician and unemployment, that will not set any of those criminals free from court of law.

Its a big shame that some heartless criminals are taking advantage of Haiti's problem to enrich themselves.

God will punish every one of them.

Sagamite:
Yeah, I get your point. Thanks.

To do a masters in Finance or Management at LSE will burn between £15K to £18K in your pocket (even as a UK citizen) just for fees alone, not to even consider cost of living.

Life aint fair, the rich sometimes have it good and easier. People should just go to the best Uni they can afford and try and be tactical in life.

That is what i'm going to do, then take the option of a yr work placement to gain work experience. Paying £10,000 plus and maintenace money is not a joke.

I have a friend i wish to ask out. after enough expenditure and stress to have her as my own, one night, she finally send a love text message saying " i've drop a tear in an ocean. the day you will find it is the day i will stop loving you. i love you so much" i was very happy that atleast my effort is not in vain. i was surprise to see another cute sms in the morning and at the end of the sms, she said. the text i sent you last night was a mistake. to me i thought it was a joke. i called her that moment just to realize that she was very serious that she made a mistake sending that love text.
what do i do in this situation. do i go ahead trying to make her fall? will she agree at the end? is she making fun of the whole matter?

She is just messing about with ur mind, stop calling or picking her calls, the msg is clear, she is not interested now untill u start acting as a matured man and give her breathing space. If she is interesting in you, she will come calling. Stop following her like a bad smell.

luizworld:
@justwise, thanks bro, The IV letter from my aunt shld be there too right.

Yes it should be.

Sorry i meant Jan 2011, while i'm bothered abt d fees, what bothers me d most is getting into a good school & not jst any school. Also 4 dose that hv gone 2 d UK, Is it true dat upon return to Nigeria it remains difficult 2 get a mouth-watering job I don't want 2 end up wasting millions

If u are looking for 'good' schools here then check those in top 20s, chose ur course and check the requirement. For the job side, i think it may come down to God's grace and 'connections' I know 2 pple who finished their Msc here and went back, they are still jobless now, one of planing to come back here for phd

luizworld:
@ justwise, i just want to ask u something relating to USA, i am currently in Uk doin a masters degree, I intend to visit my aunt in the USA for the easter holidays. I would like to know if i culd apply for a US visitors visa from here or go bak to nigeria to apply.
thnks bro

Not at all, u don't need to go back to Nigeria, just get a letter from ur uni here and ur bank statement, check if they require insurance too.

guydudu:
Hi ALL,

It is true that all international students(including nigerians) are now required to write TOEFL as a requirement for visa application.Please i need an urgent response.

For Uk admission? I have to check that if u are refering to Uk admission. By the way, where did u hear that from?

JeSoul:
Yeah Justwise, I think Tpia captured it right, it is "relatively" easy when compared to other countries. But by no means does it mean its as easy as our brother was implying.

People are arrested for "marriage fraud" all the time, it seems almost yearly a story comes out of naija central in Houston. It is far from a cakewalk, stamp guarantee. People should not be misled that it is.

I see the point both of u (u and Tpia) are trying to make, Uk is harder to be honest and USA is not like TakeWay thing

@Sagamite

Your list is spot on, the problem for International students like me is the fees, i have gone through those schools on ur list since last yr, their ranking changes little. The fees put some of us off from having ago.
Paying £10.000 + and with this economic situation is not a joke. Weldone though

@kevoba

Just be honest here kevoba, there is no scholarship. This is just away of collecting money from prospective students and nobody will see u again.

Some people can be wicked indeed.

Aare 1:
Can i get info on my chances of securing admission to do my masters(LLM) in the UK wit my second class lower LLB. I am interested in knowing the best schools i could hp to get into & also their affordability. Consider going Jan 2010. Pls your advice wil b appreciated

Jan 2010? or u mean Jan2011? When u said affordability, how much is ur budget? There are schools here that will admit u with 2-2 but fees maybe the issue.

gongo aso:
nah, she dint clear it up, she more or less buoyed up the claims.
and in no way are the claims out of place.
truth be told, though risky a bit, that's the ways things are literally in the US if u wanna go down that path.
though not exactly in black and white[b] if u grab[/b]

Yup, i grap that. That shows how Uk and USA treat immigrants differently, the gap is even wider.

[quote author=tpia. link=topic=399439.msg5535516#msg5535516 date=1266465580]its actually relatively easy like he pointed out. At least compared to other ways of getting legal stay, save for the lottery thingy.
Thats why green card marriages are so common. And the man usually stays only till he gets his papers.

However, people are beginning to wise up to these issues and get cranky about them.
Not sure if the US can follow Britain's example since its not only Africans/Nigerians engaging in such unions. Every nationality does it.

see am :[/quote]Ok, i never knew, all along i thought USA is harder and more complicated than the UK. Thanks for the insight

Thelmabee:
I think it's because this person wants to break another person's home ,especially when they know the person is married and they don't limit their nitwittedness to naira land but further carry it to yahoo IM and share pornograpy links and admire each other's ikebe.
I hope I solved the puzzle,I could do better if you're not satisfied.

Who are u refering to?

stereo2:
@nikkykay,

I think you are getting it wrong. This is a girl I truly love and want to keep. If I had wanted to play smart, I would have ditched her a long time ago. I think you just need to calm down and read my post very well before abusing me.

No, i think nikkykay is right, u have eaten the cherry and now looking for non-existing excuse to dump her. If u do that, remember what goes around comes around.

@JeSoul

Thanks for clearing that up, i knew those claims were way out of place

nikkykay:
Nehi!!!!!!!!!! :DMy exactly means that u were able to understand & interprete what he wrote there correctly.Didnt mean anything oooooHow?! ??

I know, was just messing about.

nikkykay:
Yes u can still find true love.Just be patience and be calculating.In case any lady is interested to console him.

Hmmm aren't u clever? Are u giving him a ring?

eazyman:
i'm getting lean everyday and could hardly eat or concentrate on my job because a girl i loved so much and sacrificed a lot for sold off an investment of about 700k which i opened for her, the following day which was val'z day she came to my house to drop a letter saying she is walking out of our two-year relationship.
This february made us 2yrs in the relationship and i was even planning to get married to her but i found out she was deeply in love with her ex-date whom she told me she had nothing to do with him and was even planning to travel out, so when i confronted her, she denied this and the following week she sold off my investment without telling me and then wrote me a letter thaat she is working out of the relationship.
If i didnt truly love her i wouldnt bother, i would just leave it that way, but because i truly loved her and she was just the only serious girl in my life , so its not been easy for me at all, though my friends have told me, you're a man with a good job working with an oil servicing firm, you can easily see better girls out there, but in reality its not easy to see true and genuine love.
It really hurts but i'm still trying to think positively about life but sometimes i just feel like ending it all instead of suffering terribly emotionally. i dont know if i'll ever see someone who truly loves me .
I feel so miserable now and i cant just figure out what to do again. its so hard for me concentrating on my job and even sleeping at night, my heart keeps pumpimg fast, i cant even eat, i'm really miserable, i was planning to get married next year, i just dont know where to start from again now.

Have you ever cheated on her b4? I mean, do u have other unserious girlfriends? Why are u droping ur number?

aysometin:
He is honest but praying about doing the wrong thing?common!!

I see where you are coming from, but he did not hide the fact that he is married, that was why i bolded that part, yes what is is trying to do maybe wrong but he was honest about it, you know where you are with somebody like him from day one or what u are getting urself into.

funkybaby:
i wont mind at all as long as you come along with your platinum credit card.
seriously, if you are game, we could work something out
i was actually meant to go to the swiss alps with a friend this february, but things didnt turn out as expected and plans changed but am already stuck with a swiss schengen visa. So am actually thinking of finding my way to italy from there. . . . but i am still struggling with the basic german language.

Hahahah typical of u. I know what u mean, my mates went and came back with lovely pics, i had to get Hong Kong visa and visit there, lovely place but expensive, yea my eyes are on italy and spain. If platinum credit card means debit card then yes!!! ur wish is my command

heryyy:
Thanks for your advice,it would have been the best option but i am married,i have a wife and Kid in Nigeria.I am only left with this option and i will pray about it before i start the process so i don't get into the wrong hand

You are such an honest guy and i respect u for that. I really wish you the very best here.

funkybaby:
True. I have heard and read so many nice things about Italy. I plan to go there in the next 2-3 months

Can i help u carry the shopping bags? , my flatmates were there last yr, i couldn't cos i wasn't told on time. Will definately give it ago this yr.

ayettymama:
people do it all the time

where else do u think most of them get money??

credit cards bank loans blah blah!

This is true as well.

heryyy:
Of-course i know its not free and i am working towards the money,i know i will get it ready before September/December,just wanna make a fast move before its too late,i just wanna know if its not too early for this year ?

How about doing it the normal way, u got more than 2yrs left, you can meet somebody, fall inlove and get married without paying for it, arrangee is risky, if u paid the money and she refused to corporate there is nothing u can do about it, you can't even complain.

Its up to you anyway but value ur options and the downsides IF it backfires.

Best news ever!!

majikboi:
how do i tell my gurl that im tired of the relationship and that i want to back out

What has she done? You are struggling to find an excuse to end it cos probably she has done thing wrong.
