Hail the gurus in the house
Please i don't mean to digress from the ongoing matter
Just two quick questions way dey worry me.

1) me and our kids have been drinking the Thames water, I mean tap water and I have heard some many different views about how safe it is to drink it infact the last one that got me so worried was when someone mentioned in the heat of an argument that she suspects the tap water contributes to the level of autistic kids...

I realised I usually see white colour substances deposits-sticked to the kettle or pot after boiling water... wondering if same substances deposits inside the body after drinking. We are Beginning to consider bottle water but the consumption and cost no go be here
Please your candid advise

2)I have been over 3years in the country and have been striving really hard to climb the property ladder but we keep spending out of 10% deposits savings (saved in separate account) though some spendings are inevitable financial obligations.
Please is it a bad idea or decision as a first timer to jump into Rent to buy scheme or shared ownership option to secure our first home?
Abi all we need is more strictly financial discipline on our deposit savings as the thing keep fluctuating
Thank you gurus,
Your input would be highly appreciated
Una thank you very much

About water consumption, we have a 2 tier system in my house....... My wife and her children, only drink bottled water... Whereas I very happily drink tap water......... We only live once, do what works for you..... 😁😊

Rent to buy or shared ownership, I honestly dislike both schemes..... Why would I want to pay a mortgage on one half of my property and rent the other half....... When you intend to staircase, you pay mega for the privilege (PLEASE READ & WATCH YOUTUBE VIDEOS AND DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH ON BOTH SCHEMES, BEFORE YOU PULL THE TRIGGER).......

Meogom:
Finally got the keys on Friday as planned after all the Barclays drama. This forum has been a huge source of inspiration and a great bank of information. Reading about people's mortgage journey and learning from them, people sharing insights, all the banter and vibes ati be be lo. Thanks so much to this great house.

RENT MONEY IS STILL DEAD MONEY...... 😀💵💰

Nah this boy no allow palmer, marry hin babe..... 😘😂😁

Hakimi don teach them lesson..... 🤣

Elusive001:
Have you not seen some section of the masses defending foreign medical trips by the leaders?

Unbelievable...... 🤔🤐

How would the government care for the masses, when they prefer foreign health tourism sector......

Easygo1111111:
Please help , I am confuse and I want to reapply but how do I correct this

What they are simply saying is, your finances does not add....

You are also been accused of financial pumping your account, prior to submitting your application.

Your wages is not enough to sustain your 7 days tourist visit.... Spending the figure you proposed on a holiday, is not justifiable considering your ongoing expenses....

You want to spend £1600 in 7 days, when you earn £267 pcm..... Does not add up....

Your ongoing expenses monthly is 350K, so where does the £1600 holiday money come from (we have also not yet added flight) + you're self sponsored.....

No DNA required...... 🤣😂😁

Get a job, try to get a job, get any job at all cost..... 😁😂

whippersnapper:
The guy is good honestly. arguably the best actor in Bollywood currently. But hope say him never cross carpet sha

Is he now in bollywood....... Never watched him in any bollywood movies (yet)...... 😁😂

It's easier for a single person to be a womanizer.........

Does he not know this...... 😁😂

He owns nobody anything, anywhere..... Hence free to roam..... 😊😁

ehizario2012:
I remember kemi badenoch has one fan here who said they'll like their children to be like her, I would like to know their position now that kemi has been shown up as one making frivolous comments...

Be brave my friend.... Be brave........, 😁😂

They could keep mute, but decided to follow the script........ 😊

He could not even pass CRK....... 😁😂

53 years old, young man.... No more shame in the Nigerian political circle, just claim any age......


And we are wondering why we are subjected to various certification checks, when seeking proper jobs or educational opportunities, in the real world...... 😂🌍

AguluLiar:
Na presidency dey hungry you people.
Obi go contest tire.

I am not an obi supporter, they are all the same......

Why did he not have a DNAR in place...... No point wastng taxpayers money any more.......

Imagine if they managed to resuscitate him......... 😊😂

AguluLiar:
Go and think about your life and leave Buhari alone.
He was a great leader

I hope buhari did a deep reflection, before he died..... Because I hear his daughter said, he pleaded for forgiveness before he died......

He was a hopeless leader.....

Goke7:
wahala na to disown pikin remain now o!

They would make it a safeguarding issue...... 😁😊😂

AguluLiar:
So, because Buhari ruled Nigeria, he must remain alive forever?

Stop mocking the dead.

It was not Buhari that made Agbari Ojukwu, Emmanueli Iwuayawu, Ogbonnaya Onu and others to fail in their bids to be Nigerians president.
They were simply rejected by the good people of Nigeria. They were presidential materials

The dead that mocked the living, when they are alive....... Get mocked at death and while alive......

The mocking would continually happen, till the people he mocked are satisfied......

Goke7:
Unfortunately the child is protected by the law in the uk and will never leave, as he or she will now be govt responsibility, he or she will remain and get ilr sef in seven years time and become citizen. You see why am suggesting make the parent quickly pack any uncontrollable child back home? Na so e be o! Remember ekweremadu matter is the boy not still in uk? While Oga Dey inside prison. While that case looks different it underscores how children are being protected and many of them are beginning to know this and use against their parents.

Exactly my point..... Infact a case precedent is available, where the judge mandated the Nigerian parents to produce their Nigerian son at the next hearing (in 7 days)........ 🤣🇳🇬😁


All of this conversations is not to score cheap points, but serve as a form of education to us all...

My experience with social services, is well documented on this thread.. . .. Me the David, defeated the goliath (they even tendered a letter of apology)......🤣😂🤣

AguluLiar:
What of Agbari Ojukwu, Emmanueli Iwuayawu, Ogbonnaya Onu, ?

Did they think they would die?

Remind me.... When did they rule Nigeria...... 😂🇳🇬

Sellfish:
just the same way you think you will never die, while mocking a fulfilled man who died in his 80s

What did he fulfill.... Misery and pain to majority in Nigeria......

Death is inevitable.... You too would die... But ensure you leave a good legacy...... 😊😁

femi4:
In this life..you come N you go

Men check your prostate

Cycle of life...... 🚴😁

Buhari probably thought he would never die...... 💭😁

Let's hope accusing fingers wouid not be pointed at nollywood........ 😁

Goke7:
I actually wanted to say this earlier but just wanted to avoid the backlash of the victim tag, it’s obvious especially with the way the op was quickly dismissed from work and that’s the strategy now as any accusation is currently being linked to deportation as we continue to wallow in this anti immigrant sentiment and regime, I hear there are even plans now to empower the police to use their discretion to deport immigrants on the spot even for minor offences like driving cautions and so on. I think everyone on a visa should just be on guard, don’t drive without a full licence and avoid trouble as much as you can, if a child is becoming uncontrollable abeg do all you can to avoid issues with the govt ( if possible deport the child yourself back home instead of you being deported). We can say this is fear mongering but it’s really getting more hostile out there.

Remember the case of the Ghanaian boy that sued his parents, for deporting him back to Ghana. He won his appeal...... 😁😂

I don't know the house he would be returning to in the UK, or would the state take responsibility over him or would the judge mandate his parents to assume full responsibility...... 😉😁

Would residents still not travel to the old island and mainland, in that over congested very smelly Lagos State, with bad roads all over the place......... Overpriced nonsense...... 🤣🙄😂

This was once somebody's pride and joy...... Let's learn to invest in structures wisely....... 😁

@Mosun8220 pls get in touch with Mr Lekan lije everyone said. I have watched him saved many families and reunites them with their kids after taken away by social workers. You can watch some if his videos and learn some defensive skills there.
Taking your kids straight away without investigation is not how things works and i feel they are trying to target immigrants cos my sister british citizen whose son accused abuse never got her kids taken away as they investigated the matter and the child later exonerates the parents that they never did it but was just trying to paint a story.

This is the person I referenced from the NIUK X space meeting....... He must be doing exploits, saving families.....

LionInZion:

Perfect teamwork..... I saw the snake, you killed the snake........ 🐍😂🤣

Mosun8220:
Good evening everyone.

Please I need urgent legal advice and an immigration lawyer who can help my current situation. I had an issue with social workers for over three months now. My employer cancelled my COS because of the issue with social worker which has to do with my kids.

Today, I received a letter from Home office asking me to leave as I do not currently have a visa.

It has been challenging and difficult for me for the past 4months.

Please treat with urgency

Thank you

Send a message to NIUK on X... I listened to a space about a year ago, a gentleman spoke.... This is his area of specialization (shame I did not take his details down (so unlike me)......

Sorry to hear about your predicaments and battles on both fronts.....

Long battle with illness..... What illness held him for so long......... We paid for his UK health tourism rendezvous for 8 years, but we are still not supposed to know what we paid for....... 🙄🤔

It's simply another election campaign, geared towards 2027....... 😁😂
