I am currently an MBA student in a top twenty five U.S University.  The advantages of an MBA outside Nigeria are numerous, obviously one has to be very selective in choosing which school to attend.  Not all MBA degrees are the same.  Obviously the elite schools remain unchallenged with providing exceptional opportunities to their graduates.

An MBA is a wise investment if you can get your company to support you by paying for it.  I work for a Fortune 500 firm here in NY, and they provide substantial financing for my MBA degree; which I am doing part time.  The ability to network with your classmates and the intellectual conversation that goes on, broadens your horizon.

Although it is quite expensive, it is worth every penny.  Just this week I was approached by one of our Senior Executives to find out about going to Nigeria on behalf of the company at a leadership meeting.  One of my colleagues a Nigerian is the CFO for the Canadian Region.  He also has an MBA.

An MBA puts you at the table with the major players in any organization.  Especially outside Nigeria, there are very few minority students in MBA programs here in the U.S.  

I would highly recommend it to anyone I personally know.

Valglobal, why haven't you traveled to Cuba yourself? PLEASE!!! find yourself a real job or may be a better country and you might get some responses.

Edo State and probably Kano are better than Cuba on their worst days.

It is important that you are your spouse are on the same page.  The bible says "Shall two walk together except they be agreed?"

My wife knew how much I made before we got married, we have joint accounts and individual accounts.  She has access to every account and has all my passwords and atm pin.  It is essential that marriage is built on trust and that is how we have managed to keep our marriage working.

Most importantly there is peace in our home, although I manage the finances, she trusts my judgement in these area and she knows that I am financially prudent.

I believe in full disclosure, although difficult it is very necessary.

Great write up, I felt like I was on the plane with you. Amazing and I concur that Airline is really an embarassment to us as a country.

Great job

Assuming that you know everything in life may not make you go far in life. i place the content and its clear enough to make you know that am not a ghost or an somenone trying to hide himself. why will you not take your time to find out or do your research before you come to that conclusion. Anyway am bold to let you know that you may be lacking far behind in life if you dont verify information before you judge them. Am sure of what am talking about. Your ignorance of the information cannot change the policy in that information. Your insult to the information cannot assult the opportunity. Learn now before you miss all the opportunity of your life. ."

Please make your information public if it is genuine.  I sincerely hope you are not talking about the "World Passport" which is not a legitimate travel document.

I checked the web to see if such a document existed before commenting on your package and to my surprise I could not find anything.  Please direct me to the appropriate link or website and if it is true, why are people not using it?

I seriously doubt that it exists and your posting it here does not mean it is genuine.

You are a typical African cockroach, you came all the way to Britain to use our over stretched NHS system that you have NEVER paid into. You are a pest, and you deserved to be sent back to where you belong. You are a disgrac and no differant to a beggar. I am glad there are strict procedures in place to stop africans from taking advantage of the UK.

Whiteguy, it is quite obvious that you were intimidated in school and out performed by many Africans.  This is the only explanation I can think of for your lack of empathy.  Your country is on the brink of collapse (Financial Crisis) and you are worrying about a pregnant woman.  At the rate at which things are going your white led country might be going into the ground, I think you should give some minorities a chance to lead. Hint (USA).  It appears that your friends in power have run out of options. 

I hope your wife never experiences a similar situation, "remember what goes around comes around."

[size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][center]Traveling from one country to another couldn’t be easier than when there is a policy that mandate the embassy to stamp your passport with visa and not only that to give you resident permit so that you can stay as long as you want to stay, move around in that country as much as you want to move around, work in that country anywhere you want to work, marry in that country if you want and ultimately leave that country anytime you want to leave.

There is nothing like a Global Citizenship package. This is really becoming comical, please stop lying to people and get a real job. You cannot make it past MMA with your so called "Global Citizenship Package."

I can't imagine the situation you are in, but sympathize with you. It is quite difficult for anyone to get to the USA or Europe these days and there is probably nothing anyone here can do to help you.

You will have to apply for the visa yourself and find your way into these countries legitimately. Finding work in these countries is also difficult without work authorization.

I know that things in Africa are quite difficult, not to say that it is not difficult here in the USA or Europe. It will be extremely difficult without the proper paper work. I wish you all the best in all your endeavors and hope things work out for you.

I happen to personally know Nomsa Mlambo, who is listed as a Cameroonian; this is not true. She is actually from Zimbabwe, I have no idea where you got the pictures from.

Most of these women are not from the countries you think they are. I personally think Ethiopian women are the most beautiful in Africa.

Hi Everyone,
