Which oil and gas field is Transcorp producing from? Hope you are not confusing with HEIRS?
Exactly. Transcorp has no oil business.

Children of God!

My passport is finally ready for collection. I withdrew my passport last week, but those bastards at the South African high Commission were still withholding my passport. So I bombarded them with close to 100 emails today telling them to return my passport. I copied Nigerian Foreign affairs and the Minister of foreign affairs in my emails. I also just procured email software to send 100 reminder emails to VFS and the South African High Commission in Abuja EVERY HOUR starting from tomorrow until they returned my passport. I was going to be a major nuisance. The fun was just about to begin for me, since everyone wanted to be mad.

Thankfully, I just received the message from VFS that my passport is now ready for collection. I'm not getting a Visa, and I feel so grateful. Will spend Christmas in U.S since my American visa is still valid. Never ever applying for an S.A Visa again. Will wait till my money is complete and I can buy a second passport like Nevis or something that enables me visit S.A without the visa application nonsense. S.A is a lovely country; but the fuckers at the High Commission in Nigeria are completely loco.

I'm still going to contact the Journalists and tell them about the S.A High Commission's ill treatment of Nigerians and hostage of Nigerians' passports in the name of issuing visa, and the racketeering they have going on as well.

Biggest lesson: A closed mouth is a closed destiny. Learn to fight for your rights and don't just take nonsense sitting down.

Bye bye.

This is so wrong. How can they do this? It's such a mistake to apply for South African visa from those fucktards.

My brother you should have just accepted the rejection and moved on with your life instead of coming here to embarrass yourself with bitterness. Now if those South Africans come here and reply your nonsense about them,we will start getting mad and accusing them of hate yet we start the hatred. Is it the common South African you're insulting that's responsible for issuing you Visa? Why were you going to a country you hate in the first place ,are you not a hypocrite?.
Lol. Bro, they haven't even rejected me. My grouse is that my passport has been with them for a long time and I have withdrawn my application and they are wasting my fucking time in returning my bleeping passport. Return people's passports when they ask for it. Is that too much to ask for?

Lol.
The people you are reporting to, aren't they more corrupt than the SA consuls?

This isn't news nah
Like for example Poland visa appointment dates are sold daily, it's in the open.
Lol. Not necessarily. This is a story written by a Nigerian Journalist some time ago about the wickedness of the S.A High Commission in Nigeria -- https://www.icirnigeria.org/how-south-africa-denies-nigerians-entry-through-late-issuance-of-visa/

I only need to invoke this old article to trusted Nigerian media people to get them angry again, and tell them of the nonsense these S.A people are doing. Media in Nigeria is fraternal and these guys hate the S.A Embassy with so much passion because many of them have been on the receiving end of the wickedness of the S.A High Commission in the past. By the time 6 or more high profile outlets expose this S.A Visa racket and intentional deliberate withholding of passport and call on the govt to act, there will be results. You Nigerians just resign yourselves to nonsense and give up so easily and that's why govt and everyone keeps giving you nonsense. Keep giving excuses that everyone is corrupt and don't go and fight. I've fought many media battles over injustice and won...you have no idea. Stop being so defeatist and learn to take your chances in battle.
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Lion123: 10:04pm On Nov 12, 2021
I also just heard something. The South Africans at the High Commission in Nigeria are corrupt. They want to get more money from you so they delay your visa intentionally so that you seek alternative ways of getting their visas and then end up going to one of their agents who charge exorbitantly to help you fast track your visa. These agents make returns back to officials at the South African High Commission. It is a racket and even the High Commissioner is in on it. They want you to go through their agents who advertise on social media and elsewhere and so they make it difficult for you to get it the normal way so that you go through these crooks for your visa. And these agents charge anywhere from N400K to N1m to tell the embassy to expect your application so that the S.A officials look out for it and approve your visa immediately.

Big Brother Naija ended on October 3. Meanwhile, some of the participants who were finalists (and who have never visited South Africa before), were able to get visas to visit South Africa -- because one of the South African High Commission's agents in Abuja has some ambassadorship dealings with a couple of the BBNaija finalists. So, in less than a month, these people were able to apply for a visa and get it.

I have requested for my passport to be withdrawn, and if these people delay my passport I will report to the Foreign Affairs and expose this racket to Sahara Reporters, The Cable, Premium Times, and top newspapers this Tuesday. I swear. These people don't even know I can be crazy.

I applied for a visa since early September in Abuja, and the passport has not yet arrived. I want to apply to another country for a December trip and I want to go and apply for my Passport to be returned. Bleep them and their visa. Only problem is, the last time they delayed my visa and I went to apply for my passport back, the bastards at the South African embassy still took another 2 weeks to return my passport with no visa.

The bastards who work at the South African high Commission are so full of sh"t.

How much is the annual rent for a bedroom apartment worth in Gbagada, so that we can balance the two and know which one to choose?

I actually have problem with real estate. Some of these has to do with tenants not paying their rent when due, and when you take legal action to eject them, the court will give them 6 months to leave the house. This means that the landlord will not collect anything for that 6 months. In addition, whenever there is any renovation/repairs in the house, no matter how small it is, the tenants will still want you the landlord to take from the house rent they are paying to effect the repairs.

A tenant left my house December last year and the agent told me that the damage done to the house by the tenant is too much to be neglected and that the house need outright renovation. To cut the short story long, I spent more than 2 years house rent for the same house to do the renovation. In fact, I am thinking of putting the house for sale by next year. If the money was used to buy Zenith shares, I would have been collecting my dividend yearly with peace of mind.
I keep telling people that real estate in Nigeria is nonsense, especially if you are building to rent. Also, if you are buying land to hold for a long time. Nonsense also. By the time inflation and devaluation give you blow, you go no. We bought land somewhere for N3 million in 2010 when dollar was about N160. We sold the land for N9 million recently. When you consider inflation and devaluation, we lost money. The only way to do real estate is to build and sell immediately.

Look around, you will see empty properties everywhere, yet those properties must be maintained regularly.

Pray you to get tenants the won't default on their rental payments.
Real estate as an investment class in Nigeria is nonsense. I keep saying this all the time.

Today's market was just one kind.......
ACCESS closed @9.10.........touched N10 two days ago..........think investors always underate this stock but it usually bring surprises and deliver........still a good stock to keep eye on for good entry......

UAC-Prop has changed name now to UPDC...... now a stand alone coy.
The only question I have about ACCESS is that all these acquisitions it is making all across Africa, how is it funding them? And will investors have to be patient before these new acquisitions start paying off?
