Meaningless BIBLE quoting
There are quotes from the Bible that are meaningless?
Really?

Don't bring $hit down upon yourself for the sake of *hailings* or affirmation from people who won't be able to deliver you.
Don't bring $hit down upon yourself FOR NOTHING...

If you like BAN, EVICT, EXCOMMUNICATE or whatever you think the *power* on here can give you...
That is the worst you can do. That is the limit of your perceived "power".

Point made.
Those who have taken it have.
I have changed minds ☺
The thread has succeeded, literally with your help

Yes and you are perfect example of it, it's useful when used correctly but Militant Christians like you make a mockery of the bible.

In terms of top destination for foreign students the U.K. Ranked second in the world with US taking top spot.

Your thread probably change the minds of unserious and potential immigrations like you and not any serious student.

By the way thanks for the traffic

There is a thread for this here look for it and post this.

onatisi:
Buhari,Boko Haram, Fulanis herdmen,ipob, lol

Those are not valid reasons because millions of people are still living in Nigeria and Nigerian govt hasn't declared national disaster as a result those issues you listed.

Spain or Italy is not the next country to Nigeria, so if your life is in danger then you would't have time to apply for visa and fly all the way to Italy to claim asylum, there are many African countries that will cost you close to nothing to get to.

Jorussia:
bros why you dey argue with me na?i just told u SB i know very well (the dad even came to my house a day before yesterday) was granted asylum and giving two years permit just three weeks ago.what i am not sure of is if they still accept fresh applications for asylum.my brother i be Bini boy and i know what's up for IT.

Is that enough evidence to believe you?

Jorussia:
Italy still grants asylum to Nigerians, although not as easy as it was let's say two years before now.I know of somebody who was giving two years residence permit last month from the same detention camp.what i am not sure of is if they still accept fresh applications for asylum.

Bros Italy don't grant asylum to Nigerians, even Africans from war ravaged countries find it very difficult to get a asylum.

Italy can't cope with the huge amount of asylum seekers coming from Libya including dead bodies brought out from Mediterranean sea

damfam:
What of Germany then, if Italy is a bad idea

I see you are desperate so i don't think anybody here will convince you not to risk your life and money.

Good luck.

emmayayodeji:
You just gained my respect

Well..what can i say..this is typical of some Nigerians, they are so intolerant of alternative view, they curse and quote bible verses.

If i banned him from this section for his insults some individuals here will accuse me of abusing my power as a moderator or that i'm jealous of his thread but there is a limit..

Jorussia:
if she can transit to Italy, let her try it.Italy grants Nigerians asylum.

That is not true, Nigerians that were lucky to get there from Libya are still languishing in detention centers

Italy is suffering from thousands of immigrants from Libya and its the last place any Nigerian should run to for asylum.

Let me ask again..what will be the reason for the asylum?

damfam:
Pls if u don't mind, can u explain more to me

You can't claim asylum in Spain because as a Nigerian you are not qualify to claim one.

What will be the reason for claiming an asylum?

damfam:
Isn't that a waste of resources. I am looking for money, y waste one on a wrong visa

That was exactly why i said IF you can afford it without closing down your business in Nigeria

saouri:
Proverbs 17:5
Those who mock the poor, mock the God who made them...

May the ground shift under you!
May you fall off your high horse into the dust with gnashing of teeth!
When you try to get back on your feet, may you consistently stumble!

It is you and your generations that are "poor things"...

You don't know when to stop.
You will learn a life lesson trolling on here..
Keep at it ☺

here we go with meaningless bible quoting.

You lived and studied in the UK still this phrase: 'You poor thing' come across to you as an insult? Its a idiomatic English expression, it does not literally mean that you are poor.

I'm just going to pretend as if i did not read those curses from you because it means nothing to me.

damfam:
tanx for the help, it will help me alot.
But pls a frd was telling me about seeking for asylum, do u no anything about that

Another suicide mission idea

damfam:
so the best is just to forget the money with him and save the ones for my flight.

If you can afford to visit Spain as a tourist without closing your business in Nigeria then do that and see things yourself.

Traveling to Spain with visiting visa with the hope of working with a wrong visa will be a massive mistake.

damfam:
I went to the embassy to submit and collect them myself

Are you working or running your own business in Nigeria?

damfam:
Pls do u think this agent can refund my money and he won't tell me he as use it in acquiring those formal papers he gave me.

I doubt that.

damfam:
Pls what do u think I can do, cos right now am so confused. Can u advise me to risk it, pls Wat is the wisest thing u can tell me to do right now.

If you want to cut your losses and avoid hardship in Spain then save your flight money and look for something meaningful to do in Nigeria.

You are holding the wrong visa.

Don't risk your life for nothing.

Did he give you that visa or you went to the embassy to collect it yourself?

You have been deceived by that thieving agent, you will not be given any document in Spain that will allow you to work and you can't extend that 2 months visiting visa.

fcisca:
Good day all. Thanks for all your contributions on this thread @justwise @ekpotek and all the selfless peeps.

I just got my passport from TLS Abuja with 2 years visitors visa.
Here is the timeline:

Submission -8 February, Biometric same day
Acknowledgement email from Sheffield -12 February
Email from TLS saying passport is ready for collection -28th February

Good luck to all the other guys applying.

Congratulations!

Lolas89:
I actually mailed them to ask if I can change it but they said no that I should withdraw the application and I said OK to the withdrawal and they said they will return my passport within 15working days. So I was just waiting for them to return it so I can reapply.

Then I got the usual passport ready for collection yesterday evening. When I got to tsl and they gave me my passport I just noticed a paper in it so I already gave up that it's the refusal letter so I didn't bother checking the passport, just opened the folded sheet to see that my application was successful and my passport stamped. Come and see the way I shout for inside danfo.
The lord is good, he is kind and faithful.

This is really good, i'm not sure i have come across a case like this before.

I'm glad that it worked out for you, congratulations once again.

LaudableXX:
You are trying to cover up your blunders! Just swerve, biko.

I can only research and present the info here but the ability to comprehend is down to you.

Switching from tier 4 visa to 2 tier gives one the opportunity to remain without leaving the UK if successful and eventually a citizen after 5.


This is not hard to understand.

Kingsley10000:
it's under probability,there is no certainty of getting employed,that's why i said if you are fortunate and has skills with right education,you might see something to do.



i have many friends in europe and middle east,i got the info from them

They lied to you or told you what you want to hear.

LaudableXX:
Another contradiction from justwise! The info at that link highlights the different grades of UK Visas, and does not perpetuate your myth that Nigerian students can stay back and work in the UK, after they have received their degree.

God! Dude please ask a 5yrs old around you to read and explain that link for you because you are helpless.

saouri:
Seems to be? From your end of the internet you are now in the minds of others...

False generalization? The others throughout the thread who have come out to say they went through the same thing are....?

All hail the one who is *Just Wise*.
If you do not see his/her point of view, you have no say.

I hope that off nairaland you are not having issues in your personal relationships/life?
You sound PAINED & DESPERATE!!!
Find happiness!!! Like seriously GET help...

You who went to the best school...
Read the best course...
Planned better than the 97%...
What job are you doing that gives you the time to consistently be on here trolling my FAMOUS POST?
About 38,000 views and counting...

I know how many minds I have changed with my post ☺
I have helped MANY avoid the dead end by sharing my experience.

Why not you start a thread yourself and see how many real people can relate?
If you had your way, you would SNATCH this post away

LMAOOOO
Take heart oh ye WISE ONE

Hahaha..you poor thing, i'm in a happy relationship, i have a job and able to afford what i want and help loved ones.


Do you want to count the number of threads i have started that is helping people and running into hundreds of pages? Have a look around this section or click on my profile .


Rather than bunching the air looking at your FAMOUS POST i will advise you to spend more time job hunting in Nigeria or even in the UK, you can't still get a job.

LaudableXX:
Don't believe that guy. He is just exaggerating and misleading people. UK policy says Nigerian students can't work in the UK, after completing their studies. They should go back home. Isn't that what this thread is about? Without sponsorship by a company, even firms that would accept STEM graduates in the UK, would NOT offer foreign students from Nigeria, a job. It is very difficult to get such sponsorships. They are extremely few and far between. Someone mentioned a 2% chance of getting a job, under such circumstances. So what da heck is that chap saying..? Let him keep deceiving himself with his long grammar.

Another lies from one of the uniformed.

See my attachment and the highlighted part

https://www.gov.uk/tier-2-general/switch-to-this-visa


This is my point..people can't read or bothered to research anything

deolutolu:
Chiefs in the house I mean fee for tier 2 visa application

..

Lolas89:
Please help me praise the living God. Just got my passport back and it was granted . Unbelievable, Chai this my God is too much o .

Congratulations!

Were you able to change the visa type or you reapplied for the right visa type?

Kingsley10000:
you definately can't use work visa because there is no guarantee job offer or an invitation by any institute or company unless u can start online job hunting and enquiry.you can use student visa,if u wanna combine academics with ur main motive(hustle)..i suggest u go with tourist visa since u're broke.with 30days b4 expiry date,if u're fortunate u can get a job(they will process ur work/residence permit i mean the company or ur place of work) its advicable to have someone that wil pick u from airport to avoid hotel exhorbitant charges

Is that not misleading?

[quote author=jayoy post=65497068][/quote]Yes.

jnyuwa02:
They do? In 3 minutes? My friend's documents were not even looked at. It was all handed to them during the interview. They only perused the documents and handed it back to him. They asked him questions and in less than three minutes, he was denied. The same thing I hear from other applicants who were denied or approved. They have special cases where if they want to grant you but have questions about your documents, they withhold them for administrative review. This is the only sets that are verified from the best of my knowledge. Regardless, this should not even be a subject matter of discussion here in my opinion, if people just simply obeyed the rules and submit authentic stuff.

If there is a question mark about documents you presented they will withhold those documents and passport and put you under AR to run a check on them. This is not the same as saying they don't verify anything.

saouri:
Dear All,

It is with a deep sense of responsibility and awareness I am writing you this article today.

For years we have been going to schools in the UK and other parts of the EU. In the past, up to around 2009/2010, we used to get opportunities to stay back in the UK in particular and get job opportunities but in the last 7 to 8 years this has not been the case.
Now as soon as you graduate from your university, you are expected to get out of the UK.

Please bear in mind that as international students, you PAY MORE to get the same education as your UK and EU counterparts but you DO NOT get the same employment opportunities.
The UK will rather employ someone from the EU (or has an EU country passport) who cannot speak even 4.0 IELTS level of english and 4 months working experience, than employ you who has 5 to 7 years working experience with a 7.5 to 8.5IELTS level of english.
They know that the situation in Nigeria is getting worse by the day with the joke that we have as leaders, especially in the aspect of employment.
Some people will say be innovative, be an entrepreneur; my people, please do not allow motivational speakers deceive you. Entrepreneurship is difficult. It is not as glamorous as instagram makes it look. Also, entrepreneurship is NOT for everybody. Many people need real jobs!
Please ask yourself the following;
- Why are you really going to school in the UK?
- Why are you paying higher amounts of money to get an education which does not give you the same employment opportunities as your counterparts?
- Is marrying a UK/EU citizen because of papers worth it?
- Is it really worth it to stay back in the UK illegally?
- Why are you making the UK richer by driving up the value of the pound against the Naira by paying schools fees and visa fees in pounds?
- Why can’t those schools have accounts in Nigeria and you pay all the necessary fees in Naira?

Once upon a time the Naira was more valuable than the pound. My people, Think!!!
Nigerians are excluded from so many life changing opportunities for African youth such as the ALL BAR NONE scholarship, the DFID scholarships, the Barclays Rising Eagles programme (and Barclays has a branch in Lagos) etc.

I totally understand your need to migrate from the horrible economic and employment situation but I would advise you all to look at countries that use the point-based system and actually value your education or work experience in their country.

As a Nigerian, you cannot receive money in your Naira account through PAYPAL but you are encouraged to spend/buy using the same PAYPAL. If you can sell on Ebay, you can make money from home by selling things to people all over the world. We need a wakeup call.

Just so you know, I have personal experience living and working in the UK. To date, it has not given me any employment anywhere.

Even if you have parents that were legally British, because you were not born there in the UK, the Home office is not just going to hand you nationality. No. My country people please understand the UK DOES NOT WANT YOU...

I hope that this write up can dissuade many of you to look away from the UK or the EU.
Leave them alone.

Delta007:
Dude, you are better than this. Nothing you posted contradicts the OP.

Are foreign students still getting jobs in the UK? Yes.

Are majority foreign students (with all the planning required), getting jobs in the UK after their studies? No. This has been the case for almost a decade.

You seems to be one of those who read the title and jump to conclusion.

We are not saying the same thing.

I'm saying that Nigerian students can still get a job in the UK after graduation while he is saying that the opportunities are not there that they rather employ EU citizens with little qualification than Nigerians with 7yrs experience. Then he ended it by saying: 'the UK DOES NOT WANT YOU'

Nigerians are eligible for DFID scholarships contrarily to his claim that Nigerians are excluded.

My whole point in this thread is for people to be objective and not this false generalization, for the fact that it did not workout for you does not mean that others are not getting the job.

There are so many reasons why one failed to get a job in the UK after graduation..your grade, school you graduated from, the course you studied, late application and not just immigration policies.

You are not education anybody when you make this sort of false generalization.
