Goke7: 😂 they are calling you brothers and sisters in Christ you still dey vex?
Count me out… they have nothing in common with an average Nigerian, Tommy is looking for another meal ticket from organisations who benefit from religious and ethnic wars, saying things for clicks. Nigerians are dying, not just Christians or Muslims … the insecurity is affecting all Nigerians. People like Tommy are opportunistic with no solution to the problem.
jedisco: At this point, the nation needs to fix security 'irrespective' of what it takes.
We've been able to fix perennial fuel scarcity, stabilised our exchange rate and now bringing down inflation. Whether its state police, armed local vigilante groups, mandating education for all school kids, corroborating with nations e.t.c, we need to fix insecurity before it ruins Nigeria.
Security prob in Nigeria is business/politics, some people are benefiting from it so fixing it will not be in their interest
jedisco: What surprises me is that a well-established system like this gets very little media attention.
I've always wondered why those islands were popular. Appear they are a sophisticated state-sanctioned means of tax evasion or whitewashing global wealth. The nation has done an almost perfect job of keeping them at arms length while still reaping the benefits of their action
It does not get media attention for obvious reasons… those media houses are owned by people who benefit from the corrupt system… tax havens within British territories are there for a reason.. pointing touch lights on those territories will paint a dark picture of what goes on regarding tax evasion.
Zahra29: I predict that Cabinet will ask KS tomorrow to set out a timeline for his resignation. Unfortunately I think it might be curtains for Starmer.
The "herd is on the move" and the drip-drip of resignations has started just like when Boris was eventually forced out.
Agree with the bolded. Disloyal bunch, many of whom sabotaged several of KS proposals and then turned around to blame him for inaction and the local elections failure.
This is not going to end well for Labour party, they never learned from what happed to Tory...This is a gift to Reform
Zahra29: Labour MPs would rather snap off their fingers lol than call a snap GE because they know Farage will 💯 become PM, likely propped up by the Tories.
Looks like Labour MPs are moving on with the stalking horse to replace Starmer following his speech. Unfortunately doesn't matter who replaces him, even if their "saviour" Burnham (who previously lost 2 Labour leadership contests 🙄 ) somehow manages to get back in (is there even a safe seat in Greater Manchester for him now following the elections), it looks like this Labour govt is toast. Opposition parties will hound them until they call a GE as they will claim the new leader has no mandate, a la Gordon Brown, T May etc
Sigh, quite disheartening only 2 years on from the hope and promise of big change.
They have given up for now and KS was told to resign by September which i don't think he will do. The whole pressure on KS is just political noise and pleasing to Reform. If Labour wants to survive this stormy period they have rally round KS else they will pay heavier price
Fake news, not surprised that deemum is behind this, did anyone ask for evidence of the court judgment? Have any of jumping up in celebration ask for evidence of this judgment?
I'm so ashamed of some of you who believed this without doing any digging
A good section of the UK certainly runs on tax avoidance. I remember reading something similar on how the now defunct non-dom status was set up by the UK to fleece India and other colonies of taxing certain british folks. Imagine if it was another country had this vast set-up of tax avoidance.... it'd be constant stories of xyz
This video is an eye opener, the UK tax system is a system within a system
ReesheesuKnack: In one country I know, a supply teacher can NEVER EVER afford to buy the party nomination forms from his salary. Heck, a University Professor may not afford the money.
sorry i have to laugh at that picture... on a very serious note though...i'm happy for Reform and those that voted for them, like i said before...some British people need to experience what Americans are going through for voting for Trump
Controlv: Possibly a system glitch. Cowrywise couldn't validate by BVN yesterday; says its incorrect. I've tried again this morning and it went through at first attempt.
Which investment apps are you using if you don't mind sharing? I am stucked at the verification stage with SFS fund and they are not responding to emails.
No its not, i have had this issue with 3 different investment apps so far, Cowrywise is the latest
jedisco: The NL spambot is set up in an awkward manner. The criteria upon which it bans words is quite vague and varied. For a while, I noticed words like st0cks, e.t.c related to investing can attract a ban in a weird in a non-specific manner. NL is the only fora where I see this happening.
Even if a post is automatically banned, it should be reviewed by a human and if valid, the ban extended. If not (and recurrent), the coding for the bot looked into. There should be AI spambots that get better with time. Let Seun know to look into this.
That used to be the case until the recent changes by the admin though spambot ban no longer last for 24hrs, you will be automatically unbanned within an hour or two
I don't know if anyone here is experiencing this ... i recently linked my BVN to two different Nigeria investment apps and i noticed a spelling mistake in my name, i called the bank and they checked but found no spelling mistake in my BVN or bank details.
Oluwabukolaanik: so because a student was refused now for not being a genuine student means if he or she apply again they will refuse the person? It’s not fair stop trying to defend them
To start with.. why would they give a visa to you when you are not a genuine student? If you can not pass credibility interview then you have no business travelling to the UK as a student.
Those who are found to be genuine deserve your place
Its not unfair, they want to issue CAS to a prospective student who is likely to get a visa and not to someone who is likely on visa ban or have serious immigration record.
It cost universities a lot when student don't turn up as a result of visa refusal
Please, I need clarification on choice of response to give on the study permit application form section relating to my dependant Child that is accompanying me to Canada.
1. The question in the Study Permit asked "Why is your family member visiting Canada?"
The Options are: A. Visit - Tourism B. Visit - All other types C. Less than 6 months studies D. Study more than 6 months E. Work in work permit exempted category F. Work (Labour Market Impact Assessment Required) G. Work with an Open Work Permit H. Transit
2. If I pick that the purpose is D. Study more than 6months for my child, they are asking for PAL/TAL and Acceptance Letter. I am the one going for Master's Programme. Of course, a child needs to attend school while with me over there. Can I claim exception for the child and with what?
I will appreciate your guidance on how this is handled on family applications.
Thank you.
My knowledge of this is rusty, i don't want to give you misleading information.
Please anyone with understanding of this question should help the op
Chibumalasia: Someone come here and is using AI to reply everybody. Have noticed that thing since am just thinking that why people have not talk. If you check last year, somebody have call him out. Anytime somebody call him out he will start abusing them. He will stay here 24/7 and be replying with AI. He did not have work? He now put his email on his profile for people to DM him so that he can scam them privately. He will say his a Do It Yourself but he is busy promoting agents here. The same person that say Do it Yourself have email on his profile for people to DM him.
If you have not seen this pattern and you're waiting for him to scam somebody before you do something about him. No problem. I will not say anything again but the day he will scam someone here, I will call you out for allowing it to happen before you take action
I don’t know how long you have been here to know how I deal with visa agents and scammers, I have zero tolerance for such and I will not compromise on this.
I will not ban anyone without clear evidence, using AI to answer questions is not a crime, spending all day here answering questions is not a criminal offence.
Putting your contact details on your profile is not a violation of nairaland policy.
Show me an evidence of him contacting anyone here for visa activities, show me one evidence of him dropping his contact details here asking anyone to contact him then his id and posts will be gone within an hour of me receiving those evidences.
