Linasbeauty:
Good morning, everyone
Please advise

Our AOR was September 19, 2024
Medicals passed: December 5, 2024
Our biometrics have also been done
We got a pre-arrival services letter on February 3, 2025.
We finally got our FD and tracker updated with CoPr details on May 8, 2025.
No PPR/RFV mail yet, and it's now almost four weeks since then.
It's been more than 8 months now in total.

Any other person with the same experience?
Please advise.
Thank you.

They are fake because the show is short by two/three weeks, during which period they are in lockdown receiving scripts/prompts (as I suspect); they are constantly made aware of the game; the calming effect of sponsored tasks and the need to behave well for deals in a show which should be a winner take all. Biggie's 'unnecessary table shaking by Ebuka (pandering to social media), and the easy accessibility of the game

Still on the winner take all, I imagine if there could be one other car win which they fightttt for ( as may be seen in Survivor). All sponsors could pitch in and deliver a big car (asides the prize one) for the taking. Imagine competing for just a Mercedes or Tundra or even the best Innoson car, and the prize only. People would burn down the house. You would see those who would near about kill for the money, and people for who money is not do or die; etc. (their actions and dealings would reveal this)
If all these interferences were not there, in a true setting, the fakest of housemates, the cleverest actors would not be able to act after day 22.

But, is the bolded the main grouse you have against the show this season?

Eeghe:
This is because the essence of the show has been compromised/ is lost.
…by all the sponsored tasks, short duration (they spend the first two/three weeks in lock down), pandering to what Twitter and Facebook want instead of giving a no-holds barred personality show.

That is why the HMs cannot settle to be lost in the game (usually set by Week3), It is no longer a reality personality show as we watched with BBA, but a social media entertainment content show

The Pavlov concept is lost and as long as it is no longer a winner takes all which would really have people playing (task wins make people relax and just plot to stay and win those)

I would pay 100K, 200K or more to watch an original 90-day BB even if it was BB Ghana or even better, BBAfrica. Set away from outside and fanbase influence . MC can achieve this by having housemates vote themselves out (like is done in Survivor series)
Special subscription and they make whatever money that way and with adverts

Sup guys! Happy new year.
As you may or may not have heard, people like me are no longer allowed to watch DSTV or Showmax through our computers, and our only crime is living in the US. It doesn't even matter that the decoder in my Nigerian house in Owerri is well subbed.
Showmax and DSTV web don't like my IP no more.

Luckily, my wife found this other place online that allows us to watch it. I won't mention the name, but people dey use am livestream videogames wey dem dey play. It is purple in colour. It starts with a T. 😏

But anyway, for my fellow diasporans, una get anywhere wey una dey stream am, just in case this one cast?

I believe every situation is unique let me share my unique experience in the hopes that I get feedback and insight from the gurus in the house.

I am a HND holder who went to Canada in 2016 to pursue a degree in politics. The degree took longer because I had a situation called a status restoration that took almost 2 years off. I eventually had the issue restored and did 3 years worth of studies before deciding to make a program switch to psychology, I decided also to take a break from school to properly consider my options.

Around this time I received information from my student advisor about an opportunity that would allow me to transition to a work permit. I decided to take the offer but it would require me to switch to visitor status before applying for the work permit. Unfortunately the visitor visa application was approved but the work permit app was refused.

Around this time too, my passport was about to expire (I held off renewing because I was waiting for the apps). Mind you, I was fully supporting myself since I could not work. I was unable to renew the passport at the high commission in Ottawa because they were experiencing processing issues. My passport expired and IRCC recommended returning back to Nigeria and since I had a family emergency too at that time I accepted.

I was returned to Nigeria subsequently after 7 1/2 years in canada and I came back with 4
years worth of work experience (by my estimation) and 3 years of studies in a Canadian university. I tried the CRS calculator and it registered 538

Please what are my chances applying for PR. Please drop any feedback and suggestions

Hello everyone please I have a challenge

I graduated with a 2:2 here in Nigeria
3.05/5.0, candian universities use 4.0 so when I convert mine to a 4.0 scale I get like 2.44.
Almost all schools I've tried applying to in Canada have a general admission requirements of lowest 2.7 to 3.0.

Even though I now have a rich work experience I don't know if I should ignore their cut off and just apply


What's your Advice please
Do you think I stand a chance
