It's actually sad how you all attacked. With that pull him down attitude, you lots can't go far in life write it down.


Same way I asked about drugs one can take along and some nitwit came to shout on me that I'm about to smuggle drugs. I think the mental health of you guys should be checked, the cold and loneliness is doing numbers on your guys.
Thankful I'm a mental health nurse, I'm always at your services whenever you break down emotionally and psychologically.

directonpc:
With this your attitude sha. Be safe when you get here.

Worry about yourself and leave me alone if you won't answer my questions

Resurgent2016:
you are smoking in a petrol station. Wish you good luck

Amen. And you too

Goodenoch:
Go to the Ghanaian forum you said you'd prefer.

Go get some shifts my friend

Resurgent2016:
bro, you're taking a very big risk. The laws are more strictly applied here.

Properly learn to drive in Nigeria before getting a licence. One accident here can ruin you.

Finally a reasonable person.
Thank you very much for the input. God bless you.

KOVIC19COVID20:
Why did you lie during your interview?
A 'specialist nurse' that lies like this is a disgrace to the profession, dont you think so?

Came and collect the offer from me na. Hateful soul. I lied and would still lie again. You imp
You lots just hate to have people enter the UK with legal documents, with full sponsorship. Not my fault You all came in with low visa types. Ntorrrrrrr

Goodenoch:
You are wrong, but I'm not interested in enlightening you, so carry on, 'specialist nurse'.

Please I asked a question, I'm not interested in all the irrelevant things you jealous and envious souls are bringing up

rayralph:
Itchy feet can wait to leave Nigeria.

Arguing with folks with boots on ground, close to 10 to 15 years

Telling you the truth is now labelled as negativity.

We all learnt lessons ; some early, some late.


You’ll be fine.

Sorry o, ancient of UK days

Thewritingnerd:
You’re a comedian. 🤣

Ok, answer my question and quit witchcrafty

KOVIC19COVID20:
If this 'Nurse' carries this attitude to the UK, I pity its life.
If it faces NMC tribunal within 6 months, it may start brandishing the R-card.

I would rather go and get treatment and be catered for by a babalawo, than to subject myself to this type of 'specialist nurse'.

Purge yourself of hatred and envy. It would do you no go.
All I've done is get attacked for asking for clarifications frim people who I considered civilized alas, I was wrong.

Lordfiido:
🤦‍♂️. What a child

Do away with hatred and envy

giselle237:
Lagos na wa… you would be required to start driving from day 1. Keep calling people crackhead

And what's the big deal with driving? I'm not driving from day 1, they've paid for driving lessons already. All that's needed is an idea and a license.
You all left the questions I asked and went on to witchcrafty. Wicked lots

Why are you lots toxic Is it envy or hatred?

iyatrustee:
You dashed to FRSC on a Saturday?

DL application in Nigeria moved online for a number of years now. You will also need your driving school cert to process same. So pray tell, how did they issue you with a paper license in a few hours?

I may be wrong but I've seen a few of your questions and think you're just catching cruise!

The ones I saw recently: you asked a vague question about passing NHS interview (and almost skinned Lexus raw ), you have asked about what to bring when travelling, asked about living in Dudley and one other town.(someone had to ask in relation to what before they could answer your question).

UK people are haters. Omo, I'm learning. Once I enter na to avoid you Nigerians. You bunch are toxic

giselle237:
Continue. After telling lies to your employer that you can drive… when in actual fact you can not move a vehicle…. people are asking you the right questions and your next line of thought is to throw insults… you have not started

Take away your negativity.

ReesheesuKnack:
Have you taken and passed the driving test in nigeria?
Have you been legally driving in nigeria?
Have you ever been licenced in Nigeria?

How does the above answer my question you crackhead? Please swerve to the nearest ditch

Exactly as ReesheesuKnack said...

There have been cases where a driver has been stopped during routine checks or for a driving offence and instructed to produce the driving license issued by their home country, as they do not recognise the international driving permit as a valid legal document on its own.

For instance, for a UK driver to be able to obtain an international driving permit to drive overseas, they must first hold a full, valid UK driving license.

Edit: Your Nigerian license is valid for 12 months from arrival in the UK.

I guess I have to quickly process the national one but it won't be out before I leave the country

ReesheesuKnack:
Seem a bit of an anomaly that you do not have the ‘local ‘ one, yet you are processing the ‘international’ one.

Do you not need to proof that you can drive in Nigeria before you can be given a proof that you can drive internationally?

The international one comes out faster than the national own

I get now

What type of cars are in the UK, manual or automatic? I'm learning manual now but I prefer automatic

Santa2:
Passed my driving Test today 1st attempt. I am so ecstatic, having to unlearn all my naija driving bad habits and picking up the disciplined defensive driving in the Uk has been mind wrecking.. Thank God am through that stage now. Tips and recommendations from this thread were very help. All people that pasted youtube reommendations..Daalu.

Having said that I would like to sound a note of warning to people like me that have coconut head like me, wey no dey hear word. Despite all the warnings from Lexusgs430 and other elders in house about not driving unsupervised with provisional license. I went and bought a car earlier this year and entered road. First day I took the car out, I got stopped by the police and got 3 points on my provisional (talk about bad luck), I was lucky the car was not impounded, they police guy just pity me small. What gave me mind was seeing lots of people driving on provisional without issue. E reach my turn, dem catch me. Please if you are driving on provisional, book that driving test today abeg. Do not be like me, Do not have coconut head.

I did 24 sessions in total , across three tutors till I found the one that was good, one naija driving tutor was the absolute worst. He just kept shouting on top my head and derailing my confidence. When I crunched the numbers , I spent £1040 in total for sessions and using tutors car for the test.

Congratulations, how long did it take you to learn till you pass? If you came from Nigeria with international permit, can you immediately start the driving lessons and book the test or on must wait for a while?

Opulent903:
Have been having an awful day in Force C.I.D Alagbon today not until I met one Inspector Ronke in the process of this police character certificate, God will bless that woman, something that have passed through enough stress on, I got it before I left the place. The kind suffering wey I passed through ehn after some mobile keep directing me unnecessarily and even making it seems so hard to get but Glory be to God at the end. In case anybody need her number you can reach out to me. Thanks
