Let them go and look for something better to do with their time and lives.

RIp Uwa, May your soul sleep peacefully.

But truth be told , most ladies exagerrate this rape of a thing. The word "rape" has been so much bastardized. Even if you pressure a girl for sex and she later agreed, na see open leg for you o, she will still say you raped her ...all because you pressurized her for it. Reasons 98% of Nigerian ladies usually say they were raped if you asked them how they lost their virginity. It's very terrible.

I was having sex with this girl sometimes last year and after the romp, she sat down for one corner and began to cry like someone that was just raped. I wasted no time in sending her away from my house before she lands me in trouble. I was shocked. This was someone that even initiated the sex.

Moreover guys also get molested, no one says anything about it. The other day, I witnessed a lady grabbing a guys privates in public and everyone was smiling and cheering the dude. Now I imagined if it was the other way round, they would have decended on him.

This is neither the place nor time for this. Express your sympathy and move on. This ain't just rape now, this is murder. If it were your sister or other female relative, you wouldn't want anyone coming to rationalize or trivialize the situation, so don't do it to another. If ladies act slutty you'll call them slay queens or other derogatory names, this child went to a church which was supposed to be a safe and quiet place, to read. She was planning ahead, hoping to get ahead and prepped for resumption. It's a sad day, let us grieve for and with the family please!

African-Americans should return to Africa their homeland since they are not wanted in America , Africa can absorb them all yes ,after all they will bring development to Africa because more advance in science and technology and civilization unlike the Homebase Africans.

My opinion though.

The generations of work their forefathers put into making America what it is today makes them equally eligible to all the rights and privileges available to anyone else in America. If it isn't given to you, you demand it, you don't cower and walk away with your tail between your legs.

She's the reason the rest of us are forced to spend money on IELTS and TOEFL to school outside the country

Corruptionist? if you have a modicum of common sense, send it to them to act upon, send it to Code of Conduct, send it to EFCC but to use the video as a basis for Immigration not to sanction erring staff is promoting corruption you pretend to abhor. Like I said you are not helping them by creating outrage over a behaviour immigration deems to fall short of their code of conduct.

I pray to see a time when youths can use their common sense in dealing with issues the same people who advance human rights to free the likes of Dasuki and the same fools that will complain that corruption is bad.

Excuse me, are you trying to feign ignorance or you're truly ignorant about what's going on in these government agencies? There's no state that charges the amount posted online for Passports or Driver's licence and there's no way the Ogas will say they don't know about it, because the unofficial price that they collect at these offices is fixed across all states. Please stop with these silly games, you're referring folks to EFCC? Seriously? How many high profile cases, with looted public funds have they brought to book? The NIS and Nigeria in general have bigger problems to tackle than public officers having fun. They danced in their Uniforms, it's not a crime, they danced in regular clothing also, that isn't a crime either, they didn't disrespect their profession or the uniform in anyway.

How did they know it's destined for a Nigerian account? Did they label first bank or GTB on the money while it was sitting in the UK?

yyba:
from engineer to doctor is alright. so doctor makinde you mean that combination will cure coronavirus ?

He did not say that cured the virus. He said alll he did was to boost his immune system by taking those things. And No, he didn't go from an engineer to a doctor. He was given those natural remedies by a doctor-friend. With a strong enough immune system, your body has a better chance of overcoming the virus. Spend some time on your reading and comprehension skills during this isolation, it'll help you.

That's what I call thinking out of the box.
But I doubt anyone would want to but it as home furniture.
A man may buy it but for a woman will never try it.

It seems you don't know or haven't heard of pearl recycling.

odave:
Why didn't she attempt killing the person that wronged her? Why the innocent baby?

The baby has nothing to do with their squabble, she should have vent her anger on her lover.

The heart of man is so dark and evil



Btw, where ? I suspect his contract has ended. There are people you don't argue with on NL, most of them are moles, paid agents and hired secret agents. That's why you will see them 247 on NL arguing, fighting and insulting whoever does not support their cause. Believe me, Most of them do it against their wish but because of what they will eat. They are hired for divide and rule, confusion, tribal sentiments and so on. I pray another civil war won't start from NL.

We can ask all the questions we want, but I bet you it won't bring back that child. That's why it's important we remain careful with our actions, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Right now, that guy would wish he was rather dead than the child. Imagine asking someone to have a series of abortions, while you go home to your wife and kids. Such a pity. The premium for infidelity has never been as costly as it is today.

Millenniumlady:
Nigerian men are known pervert all over the world

Including your father abi?

DeRay98:
Typing like one reasoning through his anus, you're just trying Lucky Igbinedions stupidity with attempting to dethrone the Oba of Benin...
It shows you don't know the meaning of "dethrone".
You really believed Igbinedion or any govt have the guts to dethrone the Oba of Benin?
That day, you will see and that a docile city like Benin can raise against and drive that guvnor out of the state.
It would get to a point the police men will pull off their uniform and hide so as not to be lynched for trying enforce an unpopular govt order

With all due respect, go to hell.

Pusyiter:
Bro. get the facts
Lucky had never and could never even nursed the intention of removing the Oba during his tenure
He only deprived the throne of their statutory financial privileges yet the throne survived until Oshhiomole came to power.
The Esama (Lucky's father) tried to form royalty where the King of Zulu kingdom came to Benin, visited the Esama but did not see the Oba.
Oba Erediawa suspended the Esama until he came with other royal fathers, knelt down to beg the Oba before he was forgiving.
All Traditional rulers have and can be dethroned except the Oba of Benin. Even Oba Ovoramwen when he was dethroned by the British in 1897, nobody ascended the throne until he died in exile before Oba Eweka was enthroned, thereafter, Oba Akenzua.

Nigeria runs a democratic government sir. No traditional ruler is above a democratically elected governor. The Constitution of Nigeria still reigns supreme. The respect they still have is due to our reverence for tradition asides that they hold only influence. Traditional stools in Nigeria have been weakened so much due to their having vested interests in politics. When you become partisan it's only expected. Royal fathers should learn to remain neutral and fight for the good of their people.

GeneralTopic:
Ever since Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was ousted as the emir of Kano, by the Kano State Government, I have been reading comments in here like...

"they can never try this with (Inserts the name of one compound chief from a remote village)"

"the government will never attempt to uninstall (inserts the name of a family chief)"

Bla Bla Bla...

See, there is Royalty and there is Royalty. There are momentous levels to this game that goes beyond our 50 kobo sentiments...

The aura and charisma a traditional stool oozes, together with its historical progression and significance is how it will be treated...

Apart from these SS3 boys below:

Ooni of Ife
Oba of Benin (this particular one is nobody's mate)
Sultan of Sokoto

Your traditional ruler is at the mercy of the state government. The government will install and uninstall him like a mobile app and nothing will happen�... It is a very bitter pill to swallow. I know that. But let's resist the urge to argue about "realism" and "idealism" today... On this discourse, please ignore what is ideal and rather talk about what is obtainable.

Written by: Teddy Benson

I like where you are coming from, but kindly note that traditional rulers can be removed by the sitting governors of their states. And as a matter of fact, when Lucky Igbinedion held office c.2005 he too nearly removed the Oba of Benin from office, due to ruckus between the Oba and Nosakhare Igbinedion. The difference was the people of Bini kingdom fought against it and the Benin traditional stool being held in such high regard he had no choice but to back down.

The foolery you've all made of this thread is the same thing that legitimises the rascality of our elected leaders. In the face of such atrocious acts and desecration of your traditional stools, which existed long before democracy came to Africa you all stand, clapping your hands and basking in imbecilic euphoria. You may not feel personally affected today, but your inaction only fuels these brazen acts. Regardless of his past, what was Sanusi fighting against? Wasn't it the perpetual impoverishment of the ordinary man, the same man who due to his poverty sees not value in life and is willing to carry a bomb for ₦5000 or kill a fellow man in the Bush because he's challenged for herding his cattle indiscriminately. The day is coming when there'd be no where to run to in Nigeria, every man will become a threat to his fellow man.

This is stupid so I won't bother reading. Nigeria did not surpass South Africa, SA went into recession. Imagining competing with someone on a decline instead of thinking up ways to move forward. Its a pity.

What's with this stupidity of having to catch everything on camera? Someone was stabbed and you had to take out your phone to make a video of the person, instead of finding a means to render assistance or better still get the hell outta the way. This is my problem with a lot of folks, the mindless following of silly trends, just to gain worthless fame. If I were the friend of the person stabbed, I'd slap the damn phone off your hands so far, cars will quash and smash it before you get a chance to pick it up.

armadeo:
I just dey.laugh dem. Those passport guys know what they are doing.

When I wanted to renew I paid 28k. Sharply and it took about 5 days. Based on no time to go pick it up.

However when I was to capture I saw a guy complaing that since July he registered online nothing, no capture but here was I who paid in january for capture.

Dem capture me free the guy. His name wasnt even called before i left.

.nigeria is bleeped. If you need the passport dont let some bufoons stand in your way.

You dey mind the OP? When I did mine, I used the Warri office. I spent less than 5hrs for the whole thing. I just paid their illegal amount and they went with it. Tipped one or two people and by 2pm I was on my way home with my passport. The illegal fee they're collecting is standard a cross all visa offices, so who are you fighting? FG or Immigration or Nigeria. Its only someone that needs the passport after 2023 that can apply online

Arrogantbro:
He doesn't know about it

At all.

It's like this OP doesn't live in Nigeria or has never obtained an international passport before. If you want to get a passport, you walk into the office and pay the unofficially official amount and wait. If you're fortunate you'd get it the same day. If you fool yourself with online payment, you'll be waiting for 3months with nothing. The Immigration officials themselves sabotage the system, so suffer if you wish.

waynee2baba:
Nah, MSc Comp Sci or MSc Software Engineering. The aforementioned give you more opportunities instead of specialising.

Bros who will give you MSc computer science without a BSc in computer science or strong experience in computing? Even if you are given, you will end up struggling because of the steep learning curve. Its better to stick to those IT courses for business people instead of entering core IT. Even software engineering requires so deep understanding of development paradigms.

yusfaith78:
Hello Everyone,
I intend to use my micro finance bank statement for my visa application. Is it advisable? Has anybody use a micro finance account before?

Most people would advice you should use a regular bank account. But there's no rule, as long as its a financial institution governed by the central bank with funds that can be verified you're okay.

oluwaseunsniper:
Hmm, this is not entirely correct. Her school is right. As long as you submit an application with a CAS, it will be used at some point. It will be quite misleading to assume that once the CAS status changes to used, then a decision has been made. Quite logical and straight forward here - all things being equal - and by equal i mean, your passport document is original and your CAS was issued by the sponsor. The next other thing to worry about is your Bank statement. So if the HO send you a mail that your application is not straight forward or its taking them sometime to make a decision, 7 out of 10 times, its got to do with a check in Nigeria....your bank statement.

UKVI throws up application not straight forward for any reason they feel like. Sometimes just cos they've got backlogs they can't deal with in a timely fashion or the person accessing your docs needs to push it up to a superior. Usually your CAS is issued during the application process but I don't think it's used until the HO makes a decision. And I'm saying this because the day I recieved a mail of my CAS being used was the same day a decision was made on my application.

Lateef9699:
I am a bit confused about the 28 days counting. I need to ask this question in order not to make mistake in my application. The complete money entered my account on the 2nd of january, will my 29th day fall on 30th of january or 31st of january? please guys, help me with this.

Your 29th day is 30th Jan

Lateef9699:
Good day everyone,
please i want to ask if i can start and submit my visa application on the day i print my bank statement. Like printing the bank statement in the afternoon and applying and submitting in the evening. Please is this possible and i hope it does have any negative effect.

No problem with that you are good to go. As long as the 28days is complete no problem at alll.

Sandyheart:
So it has nothing to do with decision being made or not

Your CAS is used when a decision is made. But the decision could be either ways, but now it has been made for sure.

First Bank has the crappiest app ever. This award was bought. First bank is the only bank that till now you cant generate an account statement or view more that your last few transactions, while everyone else is already doing it. So what are we celebrating?

Hey guys.
When does British Airways offer cash card, for rescheduled flights? Is it in Nigeria or on arrival in the UK?

This his vex ehn, na only him dey shout, na only him dey complain of bullying. Asking for a refund = bullying. Odiegwu o.

Edit: I like how people are now making the usual "I can't judge from one side of the story" because a man was called out.. If the table was turned and we see a video of a woman shouting and insutling a man to GTF out of her office etc etc world people will say thank God he recorded it to show the world how abusive she was to him but since its a woman behind that camera, excuses will fly in favour of the man.

Can you kindly shut up. Thank you

sen2paco:
Thank you for your response and optimism.

You're welcome. All the best

sen2paco:
Thanks. Did you get a mail from the uni that ur CAS status has changed to USED at any point during ur visa application?

Yes I did. I think that was the day the decision was made. I'd like to believe if the CAS is used, then the visa has been granted, but that's my personal opinion. If you just got that mail, you're probably going to receive the passport in the next few days. Mine came 4days after.

sen2paco:
I meant outcome on visa application. She did biometrics (priority) on the 3rd of Jan but received the non straightforward mail on wedsday

Alright. I hope it comes out soon and positively.
