Bensondrums:
dats nt true....nt all part in edo state....were i live for instance we enjoy 12hrs of electricity.6hrs on 6hrs off,6hrs on 6hrs off.....those in Upper can attest to it.

Hmmm, I wonder which part of upper you mean. Upper mission? Upper Siluko? Upper ekenwan? Cos it definitely is not upper sakponba.

In upper sakponba, it used to be a regular 6 hrs on and 6 hrs off but these days, instead of bringing it by 12 noon to take it by 6pm,they bring it by 12 noon, take it by 12:10 and they are done for the day. Recently they switched to 3 hrs within the normal 6 hrs they are supposed to bring it but that was even not perfect. The truth is, if you don't stay at home, you think all is well but it is not.

I am oh! Using the bus as against a flight had its perks.

I was stunned when I saw our border in Ogun State. It was the worst of all the ones I passed through. The least organised and lacked aesthetic beauty. It is sad that a former president of the Federation hails from that state.

I was also wowed by the beach side in Togo. Was tempted to stop and stay 2 days at least. The place is lovely.

Thanks for the advice. Efex got me there safe and sound though the driver took his sweet time. Lol

I have followed Efex to Accra a couple of times and their service is excellent. There are other transport companies like ABC, Chisco etc but their services are not relatively different from one another.
You can check for the fare online, can't really remember now.
Do have a safe trip.

Business / Re: No legal basis for NAFDAC’s N1bn fine –Guinness by lizzyslaw(f): 5:08am On Nov 14, 2015
Guineas Nig. PLC does its best to maintain its high standard. The assertion by NAFDAC is quite porous. Why would they be asking for administrative charges when Guineas has 'supposedly' violated standards? They should be demanding penalties.

In any case, Guineas Nig. has been good to Nigeria. Their packages for their staff was quite good but the moment they had a Nigerian GM, their welfare gradually dwindled and now it just trickles. Our people are so corrupt that it is when they came on board that things became tighter for their staff. Telling lies and saying targets not reached. Believe me if Guineas is guilty, the staff would be the ones to suffer it.

However, I also know they have abandoned production factories. Some years ago, I know they had to stop production in their Aba branch. If the facility is not in use then they should not be made to pay ridiculous fine.

If ever Guineas is cutting corners which I doubt, the blame is on the Nigerian GM's they are a stingy and greedy lot. Thinking only of themselves and leaving their less fortunate Nigerian staff.

In any case, if there is no legal basis, biko go to court
Travel / Urgent: Info Needed On Traveling To Ghana By Land by lizzyslaw(f): 1:07pm On Nov 13, 2015
Hey guys, compliments of the day.

Please, I want to travel to Accra, Ghana tomorrow by land but I am confused by the information I have found on the net. I planned to follow efex from yaba but Google just told me that efex is not one of the best 5. I noticed Chisco is one of the best 5 mentioned but a thread on nairaland mentioned how a trip with chisco lasted 3 days on the road and how bad the trip was.

Please can anybody give me adequate info on an efficient transport service, the fare, park etc.

I would really appreciate it.

Travel / Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by lizzyslaw(f): 4:59pm On Jul 22, 2015
LagosNIV:

lizzyslaw,
You received a generic letter for refusal under section 214(b) of the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act. It's a long read, but it's public information if you want to dig into the whole thing online...
The point here is that "ties" are only part of the equation and having children is not a requirement. Most visa interview are conducted in about 2 minutes because of the number of applicants we have to meet with every day. I personally interviewed over 130 individuals yesterday! A lot of applicants, I am sure, think they conveyed information about their intent much better than they actually did during the interview. This is why they are always eligible to re-apply. We don't normally recommend that folks re-apply within 90 days but if there is a pressing need for them to get to a special event and they feel that they can convey that message in another interview, you are always welcome to reapply and will be given the opportunity to interview with another officer.

Thank you. You are right about applicants thinking they expressed their intentional better. In fact in my case, I doubt I had the opportunity to even begin. I was waiting for her to leave the computer and focus on me so we can converse so I answered her questions briefly. Besides I thought swinging into a narration without being prompted would seem desperate. More so as I saw one visa officer who took time to listen to an applicant explain why her record has a Police report attached and even offered to help her resolve it so that she can use the drop box afterwards. This was before granting her the visa. I guess seeing that nice officer made me expect such treatment too.

I will reapply because if the purpose of the interview is to ascertain persons who will not abscond then I am a prime candidate. I want to attend the conference and deliver my paper.

Hello lizzyslaw,
Sorry we are late getting to this. Statements of account are not required for B1/B2 visas. Simply be transparent and honest regarding your situation during the interview (which likely already happened).
Regards,
Abuja NIV Team

Dear VO,

Thanks for getting back to me. I was really stunned. In under 2mins I was shown the door with the blue form and refused under 214b. No ties?

I was honest to the t. Be married 8 years this october, hubby works with a multinational company, we live in our own house. Attending conferences is one of the ways academics building their cv's. Even the sister I planned to visit is moving to ghana in september. I bet the officer thought I had no plans to come back.

I have worked too hard on my paper to give it up. She did not even look at one document. Not the letter of introduction from the registrar 's office, not the letter of invitation from one of your recent award winning staff, not the evidence of payment for the conference and accomodation. I am currently in the 2nd year of my Ph. D studies, I want to carve a nitche for myself because I am working in an area that no one else in my faculty has bothered to look into. She asked about sponsor and I told her that tentatively I am sponsoring myself while waiting for my tetfund approval. Was that too honest?

She asked if I have kids and I said no. Am I currently pregnant and I said no! So if I had kids, I would have more ties?

Jeez, is it a Crime to be reproductively challenged? I Declare here and now that I do not care about staying in the states. If I had been granted a visa, on the 1st day of october immediately after the conference I would have been on the next flight out.

I love my Job and I intend to become a Prof. in the not too distant future. America is just the first of all the places I intend to go.

Thank you Dear officer.

There was actually no big deal about it cos the spinal anaesthesia ensured she felt absolutely no pain in the area she was being operated on.

Mubzay, wipe the sadness and hold on to HIM, do not let go till HE fulfills all his promises to you which HE will surely do cos HE does not lie.

Lynsunny, I am not an expert but from what I see, you have one patent tube and one blocked though it seems the blockage is not total, even though you are slightly low on FSH and Lh it seems negligent cos you are ovulating. There is nothing about your Hubby's SFA but I would suggest that you try the guifei bao and serrapeptase procedure to unblock the tube while your hubby does his own test. You can also try ACV to balance your pH and enhance fertility.

This is just my two cents, sabi mamas are coming.

MummyEsther:

Its closed cervix not closed uterus. It is Eda in Yoruba.

The Evening Primrose Oil dosage is 2 needle-punched capsule vaginally every night before O and 3-4capsules orally daily before O. Start the epo immediately after af stops. Stop a day to O or at o.


At MummyEsther, sorry to bother yôu but do you mean two capsules or two pricks of the needle on one capsule?

Ayaakanoh, my sabi mama no.1, thank you plenty. From the experiences I have read here I have no fear regarding the efficacy of guifei, my fear is because I read that it tightens the vagina and I wonder if a tighter vagina will not make the cervix even more difficult to reach for the hysteroscopy when I am ready.

Sabi mamas, please still input oh! I need you all.

Please mumihaja, legendsmother and other sabi mamas, I have a question. I HV bought gynopharm, guifei bao and serrapeptase, wanted to use them for one blocked tube but recently, my doc told me my cervix is closed.

Please advice me. Should I go ahead and use them? Or should I wait till after the hysteroscopy the prescribed.

P.s: I discussed using the guifei bao with my doc and he said I should not insert anything in the vjay.

Sisters please advice me biko, the Lord is your strength.

@Miracle baby, thanks for the reply. Yes, I did hsg before the procedure. I HV one patent tube and one blocked. The hsg itself was another painful experience after which they mentioned stenosis of the cervix. I guess the docs did not think it was serious enough since the hsg was successful.

Mamas in the house good morning to you all. This is my first time of stepping in here but I will go and start reading up from the beginning now.

Please, I recently did an iui and the procedure was hell. Halfway into the procedure which they initially told me was like a TVs and painless, while screaming it flashed through my head to tell them that 'I don't want a child anymore and that they should leave me alone' My sister's it was that painful but I managed to hold that thought within me and not utter it out.

I read my file after and the doc wrote, 'iui done with difficulty' and then they added that they plan that if it is unsuccessful, I should come during my menses to HV my cervix dilated.

My question to sabi mamas please is, has anyone done that dilation or opening of the cervix before? Is it painful? How many times will it be done before it becomes normal? What should I expect?

Please mamas come to my rescue because the pain I went through last week Thursday has no part 2.

Mumihaji, please come back, Beauty4ashes, other sabi mamas, biko come and help a sister

Goodmorning sweet mamas, I finally felt the O cramps dis mrng (my right ovary) after serious BD. @udoomama and anyone that has knowledge or experience, is there any other thing I need to do or take to make sure LO sticks?

Wishing us all fertility blessings.

I would suggest that you buy cyclogest pessaries, folic acid and vasoprin. Take the folic acid and vasoprin one tablet daily and the cyclogest, insert one at night for the next 2 weeks.

Am sure you don't need an explanation for the folic acid, the cyclogest is for progesterone and the web address I hv attached below will explain the vasoprin but for those who don't want to visit the web page, it says it's to lighten the blood so that it flows to all the spots where it is needed and thus aids fertility particularly for women who are prone to miscarriages.

That is what my doc prescribed after IUI.
