Bad breath is not necessarily from your mouth but deep inside. Dentist will want to mk their profit but will not give u result. pls look beyond a dentist for d solution

I totally disagree truths be told there different causes and what a good dentist does is identify the likely source and then treat accordingly. For free let me give you a candid opinion.
How long after brushing do you perceive the breath
When you use a small table spoon to scrap the surface of your tongue what do u notice
Do you have a hole
Do ou ve any sticky substance yellowish or greyish around your teeth lastly ve you had any throat infection in the past. These are few of what a dentist would want to know. So kindly ignore mr slimjohn and visit a dentist today

Wow nice one.... How can you rate Abu Dhabi preclearance?... what do you think about the CBP officers?

y
Sincerely depends on the CBP officer an your ability to convince , think through and sound intelligent no reason for em em em. Lastly I advise that often times it's the same mindset which is do you plan to comeback or escape. It shows besides in abudabi dey ve enough time to play with while asking questions. A lot of time available

@seyewest @signature2012@jamesgordon thanks guys. So made it through the POE at Abu Dabi am in New York as I type with family
So here are the questions asked and I sincerely must commend every comment or criticism on NL trust me there are two sides to a coin.
CBP: hello where are you going
Me: New York
cBP: where will you be staying and with who?
Me: white plains( this abt 1hrs drive from the city kinda of secluded place)
CBP : so do you have a family here?
Me: No but have friends
CBP : what do you do in your country
Me: am a Dr
CBP :how long will you be staying ,18 days?
Me: No I planed for 14 days
Turns to my wife
What do you do in Nigeria
Wife :a banker
CBP : so you pregnant do you plan to give birth here
Us : both laff and chorus not at all we got two handful already we done.
CBP : so who is picking you up
me: our host
CBP : so are they family members( note he already asked if we had family )
Me: no friends
CBP : any form of invite I can't see where you going on the screen here(lie cos we filled it out earlier befor boarding)
Me : ye s hand over the letter on invite and emphasis to host us that's feeding and transportation.
CBP : so how much is available for the trip
Me: $4000. Calculation is $1,000 pers person at the rate of $500 per week.( candid advice each person must be smart especially for families if you plan hotel reservation calculate it and factor minimum expenditure including transportation feeding and shopping what ver you say make it between 3-7k depending on your size .
CBP :do you ave any food item to
Me yes state them all
CBP pls go to agric, when you done we will give you your wife's passport
At agric
Pls what do you have?
Me o state it in clear terms listing everything
Agric can we have your keys to the luggage?
Checks through commends that he is impressed we declared and it's exactly the way we declared it, not in commercial qty
Go on
At jfk no immigration we just picked our bags and were welcomed by the fresh air of New York .
Thanks guys

I sincerely wish to confirm the above story, I had the pains of been called by my staff on a Tuesday evening that they were at the same Gbagada anti cultism unit and that I should bail them out, others and sisters it's unfortunate that those at the elms of affairs are well aware of all the goings and am so convinced the money finds its way up. I spent 45k to bail them out . Here is the funny thing I observed on the average each person is bailed by 20k and at least 30 young promising men are brought in daily. The average iGR is 600k, for a group of men whose collective salary isn't up to 600k tell me why won't dey develop a penchant for raids..The economic benefit outweighs the moral sense in the men.
Truth be told it's Stealing no matter how e sugar coat it and from my experience it's a matter of time.they will all pay back the money either via cancer related illness or a terminal disease or of course an accident of sort with no help to their rescue. Trust me I see it daily so not bothered again. They all pay for the lies and Oppression.

So working with FG over 10 years debited the housing funds that long what steps do I take to access the loan and I really don't mind the project in Abuja although am domicilled in the SS .

Lovely post I guess you guys will do well if you package your proposal and talk to various FG parastatals or agencies . Best advice hook up with the various co operative associations and for medical instituition the Ard or local NMA chapters within the hospital. a lot of deduction nothing to show forth

@seyewest@signature2012Thaank you all so much just to clear some light. I said No relatives immediate or distant but we do have a very close family friend we grew up to know and like atypical YORO we call him Daddy New York . He's indicated interest both to host and write a letter to that intent reason is cos he puts up with us always when ever he comes to town.
2. Reason and a sincere one why Florida won't pay us beyond extra cash is my baby screams at cartoon characters such that it's embarrassing to a fault. We don't enjoy birthdays with such characters and he won't allow us rest. It's really embarrassing . We observed our nanny use to use one of such to scare him as a baby so it's effect is bad. Well my experience in traveling is that the guys make up their mind in first 2mins of asking questions but intention and intent may seem valid facts may be funny thus my need for counsel.
I strongly believe in the multitude of SOUND COUNSEL. Some will definitely see it from another angle I may not see it.
Thank you once again.

@seyewest. Yes ticket was very cheap got via promo. Intention no matter how genuine is unfortunate that Assylum seeking folks are spoiling New York route. A connecting route flight is extra 600k minus hotel. Will make is penny wise pound foolish

@seyewest. I got a US visa in 2016 intention was for a family vacation in Florida ,however due to a very tight work schedule and preparation. For professional exams which I just passed I plan to travel now. Here's the challenge
1. Going with the family( wife and 2 kids aged 2 and 4)
2. Traveling via Etihad ( We know there is a pre screening centre)
3. Plan to go to New York and no more Florida cos someone is willing to Host us for free( indicated no immediate or distant relative in the USA also)
4. It's our first trip to the US but not outside Nigeria.
5. Visa to expire in October thus the need to use it
Problem is the rate of Assylum seekers going via New York makes me uncomfortable . note I don't be plans to run or seek Assylum
A medical doctor with banker wife and 2 Kids average earner and one once denied Canadian visa in the past.
Pls what's the best counsel you can offer
