Things Dey happen! From cos bandits to these ones! The things people do all in the name of immigration is inexhaustible!

They might clone the entire home office itself one day to approve visas 😂
I wasn't expecting this method from them, shame marriage is their usual route, COS is unaffordable now to many so they have to look for another backdoor

No need for long talk. I won't be contributing any comments to any visa related thread again.

Thank you.

In all let folks educate themselves properly about driving rules, the psychology here is different as everyone expects compliance from each other unlike back home in naija where we all assume everyone on the road is a mad man! Honestly I now understand better why there is a theory test before practical. Let those just arriving the country and who are eager to drive asap begin to study for the theory test immediately not to just pass but to quickly understand driving in the uk, it helps greatly, talking from experience!
Totally in agreement with that, everyone should be subjected to the same policy and not only those carrying foreign license. If there is an evidence out there that clearly shows that those with foreign license are involved in accidents mote than British ones then i'm all in for the policy

Travel › Re: Ugandan Tourist Praises Positive Change At Murtala Muhammed Airport by justwise(mod): 9:16pm On Apr 12
Oyindamolah:
A single positive experience—no matter how encouraging—doesn’t automatically confirm a full system-wide transformation.

While the Ugandan traveler’s smooth passage through Murtala Muhammed International Airport is a welcome account and may reflect pockets of improvement, it’s important to separate isolated experiences from consistent performance across time, terminals, and staff rotations.

Nigeria’s aviation sector has long struggled with deeply rooted structural issues—ranging from uneven staff conduct and discretionary enforcement of rules to infrastructure bottlenecks and supervision gaps. These are not problems that disappear overnight or within a few successful passenger journeys. Reforms may be introduced on paper, but what matters is sustained enforcement across shifts, airlines, and peak travel periods.

It’s also possible that what the traveler experienced was influenced by timing, staffing changes, or even increased scrutiny on certain days—especially when airports anticipate monitoring or heightened public attention. That can temporarily improve behavior without necessarily indicating long-term institutional change.

For meaningful progress, the real benchmark shouldn’t be “did one passenger have a good experience?” but rather:

1. Are complaints consistently declining across multiple airlines and terminals?
2. Are enforcement practices transparent and uniform?
3. Are passengers no longer needing to rely on discretion or luck to get fair treatment?

So while this story is a positive signal and worth acknowledging, it should be treated as evidence of improvement in progress—not proof that the underlying challenges have been fully resolved.
We are too negative as Nigerians, the lady was in Nigeria yrs ago and had bad experience at the same airport, when she returned this time around things have improved greatly and she observed that.

Lets be a bit positive about improvement in Nigeria.

Quite typical. Give a dog a bad name to hang it.
It's same reason why we pay IHS today. A miniscule number of folks on visiting visa used the NHS for non-urgent care without paying the result after the resulting media fanfare was that a blanket tax was placed on all working (not visiting) migrants. This has since been turned to a revenue stream for the govt.


This driver was driving illegally outside the initial 12 month period. How many times does this happen and what are the percentages compared to the corresponding general populace? This driver may have been behind the wheels even if that ban was in place.
What if a foreign driver who passed commited such error - would the coroner advocate foreign drivers be subjected to stricter rules even after passing their test?


The coroner overstepped the boundary of the case seeking means to unduly infringe on allowances migrants enjoy. Being able to drive has been a life-saver for many families -many of whom limit their ride to short distances. This has existed for a long time and what evidence is there to infer that banning this group would make British roads significantly safer?
These are critical questions that should be asked before the right-wing narrative carries this on.
Exactly! Immigrants are always at the wrong end of everything that is going wrong in the country, very convenient to suggest a policy that will further place more restrictions on immigrants who are already struggling to navigate the system

Wow, this is terrible. Even if one is allowed to drive for a year with a foreign licence, it's advisable to at least study and understand all the rules of the road in the UK asap. If this had been well understood, this accident would have been avoided. The theoretical understanding is as improtant as passing the practical driving test. Not knowing who had the right of way was what led to this disaster.


A bad driver is a bad driver British license holder or foreign one...

Very good let every migrant leave and let’s see where it takes them 😂

Malema once told a story how they chased away some migrants traders selling tomatoes in a particular place and the locals could not replace them and later they started complaining they were not seeing tomatoes to buy again. Foolish idiots


Yea i saw that interview, honestly i wasn't too surprised that some SA displayed that level of ignorant, they are not different from Tommy Robinson followers here who blame immigrants for their lazy backsides. The same way Trump supporters blame immigrants for lack of job opportunities and high crime rate, the clown sent ICE to deport thousands and now farmers and construction company owners are crying their eyes out.

The UK universities are feeling the financial pain as a result Tory and Labour govt drastic immigration policies.

By the end of this year care home agencies will be on their knees begging for workers.

@All

Are we following what is happening in South Africa? I mean recent videos i have been seeing is concerning.

At this point i don't think that the South African govt can stop this moving, they are not after just illegal immigrants even legal ones with papers are being harassed and told straight away to leave South Africa.

The recent protest called March to March was massively attended.

One thing you don’t understand is that on nairaland the more you asked question either relevant or irrelevant question the more people that are currently on nairaland or people that will be joining in the future will benefit , to be honest nairaland alone is enough to guide someone visa application and this is possible from people asking questions and Sharing their experience and opinion , so why not share your own opinion too for people to benefit instead of what you wrote

For where ? My cousin's full that country, uncles too, some even went there through school way.

Not even a 3 rooms they have built ever since they migrated to the UK years ago.

Stinginess on their side is on another level entirely. They always complaining, scared of spending money.

Make all the money there, spend all the money there too.

They never had extra to spend on anything else aside UK taxes.

Uchenna who traveled to the USA barely 3 years, working as a security guard in a MALL in California have already finished his Duplex. And UK guys have spent 10-20 years nothing to show for

Just live a good life in UK that's all, fresh skin, eating good foods, nice environment that's all.

Money ❌✖️
Building a house in Nigeria is waste of money unless you are building it for your parents.

They are stingy to you because you are probably a freeloader, you can make your own money and give it away as you wishes.

Guys I am asking this on behalf of an applicant, it will be helpful if you can contribute

The client already got her CAS letter from schools now about to apply for a visa

Her wema bank statement last transaction date was on the 2nd of march and after this day no transaction till date

So she wants to print out another bank statement for visa application on Monday ( 30th of March ) the question is

Can the end date on the bank statement be 30th of march Which will be the same date as printing date of the bank statement

Or

The end date should be the last date of transaction ( 2nd of march) while print out date will be 30th of march

Any contribution will be helpful
You get paid by your client to do the job and you came here for free advice? How much are you going to pay those helping you to do your job?

Nobody has said it's small money though.

The question is what can someone* do with it that would be life-changing in the way LavidaLoca is saying, such that it would warrant for them to "book the next flight and bid the uk bye bye." ?

*Someone here being a person who's currently here in the UK.

Hello everyone,

I have been following the "Japa" trends lately, and I have noticed a lot of heartbreak in the Travel and Education sections. Since the January 2024 rule change, most people believe it’s now impossible to bring your spouse and children to the UK for a Taught Master’s (MSc/MA/MBA).

The general news says: "Only PhD or Research students can bring family." But there is a specific legal loophole that most people are overlooking.
