Sports / Re: Ballon D’or 2022: Close Votes, Benzema Has Won It – Thierry Henry Reveals by Lanspower(m): 12:06am On May 30, 2022
Richsteemit:
That is if Ronaldo or Messi dosent win the world cup. Because the moment they win it. Benzema should forget ballon d or. Nothing beats world cup. The greatest competition on earth. But if with the look of things benzema is still the favourite to also win worldcup. Because France is not joking this year.

Travel / Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Lanspower(m): 2:19am On Apr 28, 2022
Good day all. Please I need some heads up. I have a master's degree from a UK university in 2011 after completing a Bsc from a Nigerian university. I have been back to Nigeria for about 8 years but not finding things easy again here. My master's final grade is 58% and I guess most universities will accept 60% and above for a Phd. Thus, I am considering going for another master's next year. I am rooting for Norway coz it offers free tuition as I cannot afford to pay UK or any other countries tuition fee. Now my questions:
1. Does anyone know of a Nowergian uni that can accept my master's grade for a Phd?
2. If I decide to go for another master's can I indicate I already have a master and use the master's transcripts ( getting naija transcripts can be daunting)?
3. Is it compulsory that I transfer funds into a norwergian uni account before I can get clearance to apply for students visa or is this specific to some schools?
4. My field is Political Science, can anyone please recommend a uni offering the course or peace and conflict studies?
5. am I able to go with my family if I decide to study in Norway and what extra cost implications will be involved?

Please I need some response for guys that are either already in Norway or with first hand experience. I am currently in a place with very limited internet access in case you are wondering why I didn't search for this info on the Net. Thanks and God bless.

Travel / Re: IELTS: UK Money-Spinning Venture Rips Off Nigerian Visa Applicants by Lanspower(m): 4:26am On Jan 16, 2022
You are right bro. I think the two-year validity of the test score is largely exploitative. I did mine in 2014, got an overall band 8, but never had the opportunity to use it. Why English tests dey expire is beyond my comprehension. The order exploitative scheme is WES, a credential evaluation scheme that costs hundreds of dollars but has a validity of only two years!

Check that all information about yourself is up to date and correct especially your NIN. I had a similar issue, i particularly discovered that my dispayed NIN is different from the one my uploaded national ID card carries. So I decided to update my details ensuring that they were correct. I logged out and logged back in immediately and I got my redeployment notification. Mind you, it was even in the middle of the night which signaled to me that it was my incorrect information that had prevented the deployment. So, please try this out and let's see what happens.

Crime / Re: Suspected Cultist Jumps Into River To Evade Police Arrest, Dies by Lanspower(m): 12:45pm On May 29, 2021
Your assumption is wrong bro. The guy actually dived into the river to escape arrest just as it's reported. On whether or not he was a cultist, if you really know how notorious guys in Babaoko-Surulere axis are when it comes to cultism, you will instantly believe that the deceased must be a cultist, most likely an Eiye guy. I live in Ilorin.
Kamdil:
I can bet that the young man is not a cultist. I can bet that they went to arrest an innocent soul,malhandled him ,and he died in the process .


To cover the atrocity,they threw him in the river then cooked up a story that he jumped into the river to evade arrest.

Crime / Re: Muslims, Christians Throw Stones In Ilorin Over Kwara Hijab Controversy (VIDEO) by Lanspower(m): 6:28am On Mar 18, 2021
You still failed to hide your bias and sentiment. Both Christians and Muslims involved in the brawls were only able to bring their so called God's name to disrepute. Your living God whose house according to you was being stoned couldn't protect himself while the other's long dead and buried God suddenly rose and launched a stoning attack! The problem remains that religion is doing us more harm than good. It has created a glaring division amongst us and many of us with a particular reference to you are so brainwashed beyond remedy as far as religion is concerned. On this display of stupidity, both groups involved were neither Christians nor Muslims because the real God will never be party to violence and destruction.
alBHAGDADI:

Do you all remember the story of King Solomon and the two women?

Let me bring you up to speed.

Both women were mothers with suckling babies. One night, one of the women discovered that her baby was dead. She immediately kept the dead baby by the other woman who was fast asleep and took her living baby. When the second woman woke up, she discovered the dead baby by her side and also discovered that it is not hers.

The case was dragged before King Solomon who passed judgment. The wicked women said the living baby is hers, while the original mother also said the baby is hers.

To know who the true mother is, King Solomon ordered that the baby be split into two with a sword with each woman getting a half.

The original mother cried her eyes out knowing fulling well that such would mean that the baby will die. The wicked woman welcomed the judgment and said it should be executed, knowing fully well that the baby will die, thereby ending up like her own dead baby.

That is the situation in Ilorin today. The Muslims don't mind seeing the school owned by Christians burnt to the ground over a piece of sweaty rag call hijab. That is what gave them the effrontery to throw stones into the house of the Living God, a thing that has heaped generational curses on them. Their own god is dead and buried in Saudi, so they don't mind seeing another person's God die. Sadly for them, they are fighting a lost battle because our God is risen and ever Living. He's the beginning and the end.

Glory be onto Jesus. With him, we are more than conquerors.
Politics / Re: Kwara: Crisis Brews Over Use Of Hijab In Christian Schools by Lanspower(m): 8:45am On Mar 07, 2021
You raised some valid points but I disagree with your conclusion sir. Hijab should not be enforced on any schools be they private or public, christian-owned or otherwise, nor should christian fellowship be allowed. These kids are in schools to learn and we have all agreed that Nigeria is a secular state. If education is part of governance and the government is supposed to be running a secular state, why shouldn't our educational institutions focus solely on academic and related areas rather than distracting students with religion. What then is the purpose of our countless churches and mosques all over? BTW, I am a muslim.
martolux:
May the Almighty God grant the State Government the wisdom of King Solomon on this matter.

Like I earlier said on a similar thread, constitutionally, muslim students have the right to wear hijab in a govt owned christian sch, but the reality on ground is that, govt owned muslim schools in Ilorin would not tolerate christian students to have fellowship [FCS] in their schools. Now, why should christian schools tolerate the use of hijab? If Kwara state govt wants to be fair in this situation, as they are enforcing the use of hijab in all gov't owned schools, they should as well pass the law that all christian student should be allowed to have fellowship in all gov't owned muslim schools. That's fairness and religious tolerance!

Islam for Muslims / Re: It Is Not Permissible To Prostrate To Anyone Other Than Allah by Lanspower(m): 9:24am On Oct 16, 2020
As a Muslim, I think prostration for greetings should be permissible. While Allah is the only one worthy of worship prostration for worship unarguably His alone, I don't think He has said anywhere in the Qur'an nor any narration from Hadith that He is the only one to be greeted. So if my intention of prostration is for greetings He knows and if it's worship He knows. I will always prostrate to greet any deserved persons and encourage my offsprings to do so. It looks a bit extreme to prohibit prostrating when the intent is for greetings.

Celebrities / Re: Naira Marley Cancels Protest, Gives Police One Week For Changes To Show by Lanspower(m): 9:38am On Oct 06, 2020
I don't think Naira Marley's decision to shelve the protest is not right. The essence of the planned protest is to voice out and show our dissatisfaction towards incessant police brutality especially the dreaded FSARS guys. Now that the appropriate authorities such as the NPF and ministry of Youth and Sport have directly communicated with Naira Marley and assured him of a swift response and the screenshot of the communication attached, I think it's no brainer to put a temporary halt to the protest while we wait and see what pans out within a week. We have to give Marley some credit and do not compare this with the case of TuBaba.

It came to us all a big surprise that he would choose to give up a very promising legal and high paying political jobs to confine himself to such rural settlement like Oke-Ila. He holds as B.Sc, Msc, LLB, and BL. Doksy as he is foundly nicknamed is a very exemplary monarch. May he live long

Celebrities / Re: Odunlade Adekola Vs Ibrahim Chatta: Twitter Fans React To Comparison by Lanspower(m): 8:26am On Jun 04, 2019
A choice between these two guys to me is an IQ test. Those giving it to Odunlade have a below average IQ without any insult intended. Odunlade himself knows he has only been fortunate to rein in a time when a bunch of movie audience just take whatever is thrown at them by actors and actresses. Ibrahim Chatta isn’t the best of all time, just a little above average but he is way better than Odunlade in my humble opinion.

Please if you're ever gonna use "whom or who" and not sure which would be correct, just slot in the respective object or subject pronouns to see which one fits in. Whom were about seven = them were about seven. Who are about seven = they were about seven. And if you're not sure, just use "who" to be on a safer side.
You really did well correcting the wrong use of pronoun by the nigga above. Many people struggle with the right use of who and whom for real. May I suggest that you say “safe side” rather than “safer side” next time? Let’s join hands together to speak and write good English

Yeah that was exactly how life was in the "state of nature" according to Thomas Hobbes, life was nasty, brutal and short" hence the need for a social contract which led to creation of state and government. A mother would have had to die like this hen to protect her wards if not for the existence of the state and government as espoused by Thomas. Although it's a different thing entirely when related to current realities in Nigeria, a cursory look at sane society will show you how grateful we should be to those whose effort led to creation of a normal state as against the state of nature.

Be strong blackpearl, i'm conscious of the Canada visa refusal feelings. Kindly take note of these two (2) visa adjudication points now and work on them by building a good travel history and also making greater savings as i believe anything beyond 4million would be considered sufficient for a couple with air fare inclusive for two(2) weeks visit. Never give up and try again when the travel history is built, though some without any travel history are granted visa. Your time shall come sooner than later, ok.

Secondly, does it mean June applications have all been processed? As i submitted my paper route application on the 23rd of June. Kindly update us please if you're a June applicant whether granted or refused as we're all here to help one another.

Thank you all and God bless the prospective responders.

@ the bolded, I submitted my application on the 16th of June, paper route and i got a mail yesterday that my application has been processed, dispatched to cvac and passport ready for collection. I did pay for courier on submission as i live far away from Lagos. I shall tell the house what the outcome is once I receive it but with various refusal cases i have seen on here it will take miracle for me to be granted the visa, I promise to share my story once i receive the passport though
