the beginning ofyour thread seems puzzling are you looking for people so support an idea you have already made up your mind on or youhave a working idea that will be developed and changed if necessary after putting minds together with the people that are teaming up with you.
you have to provide a skeletal explanation/analysis of what you have in mind imo

she has followed the steps of others producers like kunle afolayan(irapada & figurine), omoni oboli(anchor baby), stephanie okereke(through the glass), saheed balogun(eti keta) & chineze anyaene(ije),

^^^no worries just chill out and cut out the whole swearing and abuse,its obvious you are a matured man from the colouring of your comments and busy_body is good peoples as well so lets all debate without abuse so we can all learn from each other.
pls post the judgement if you can,however just like you i have read and printed out a hard copy of the judgement like many other for my records as i offer advise on european directives/regulations to a number of people in my church.
pls check the exegesis of the zambrano case sire,there are two illegal immigrants who have children who are EU citizen,now the main point of the judgement is based on their fundamental human rights i.e the fact that both parents are illegal must not deprive the children of the right of their parents .by this reasoning therefore irrespective of the parent's immigration status as long as the child/children are either british,irish or holds a passport of any of the EU countries living in the EU member state then the law applies to them
usewisdom:
@ lucabrasi, thanks for your advice. But when she cursed me, u never see that at all. Back to zambrano issue. I hereby disagree to agree with you. Busy_budy stated that "Now we have this Zambrano case tearing up the previous rules and stating that every child born in Europe, with either legal and illegal parents living in any of the member state is entitled to automatic citizenship and their parents have the right to bring them up, claim benefit, etc. (Again usewisdom, Ireland is included too because they are still one of the member states) ". Now, are u telling me now that the zambrano case gave right to every child born in any EU to illegal immigrants without residency statushuh Noooooooo. Pls go to the ECJ website and check the full judgement. I was on the site few days ago maybe probably tomorrow I will paste it. The ECJ confirm that it has no implication / changes of any country citizenship law. Its simply mean for child born in the EU to a legal resident non national, not illegal non national. Pls check it properly. This is not a fight or something!
yes at the bolded and the simple reason like the judgment inferred is that it is not about the parents because if they didnt have children or if their childre were not EU passport holders they would be removed/deported and moreover if their children were above the age of consent then the parents would be deported but as long as the child/children needs that integral link in their life(i.e parents and parental responsibility)then they have a right under the human rights charter to get that.
why do you think the political party ukip and the conservative government are shouting that they want to re visit the human rights charter?it is because of the rights which it confers upon every human being irrespective of your status.
pls go and check EU directives and regulations totally supercedes not just irish but every single eu member state's domestic immigration law there is a bunch of articles i can give recommend you go and read
international affairs and defence section library of house of commons by vaughne miller its about 16 pages the immigration board blog too will tell you the same thing as i also contibute to the site/blog
TravelRe: Share Your Experiences Those That Moved Back To Nigeria From Abroad (usa) by lucabrasi(m): 12:04am On May 26, 2011
i wouldnt say that i have moved back to nigeria but i just got back from a sort of test transmission where i spent about 5 months plus just to get myself used to it before taking the plunge.this coupled with the experience of some members of my family who have sucessfully moved back to nigeria will lead me to share a few pointers.
1.unless you have a surname ending with dangote or babangida or any of the 24carat names you are better off doing it in stages.
2.make sure you have drawn up a realistic plan of
a.what will you be doing for a job(means of livelihood)
b.transportation either a car which is better or budget for transportation(really expensive in nigeria)
c.accomodation(dont even venture out if you have not sorted this out)

once you have these basics sorted out the next stage is household stuffs,and then a generator which you can get cheap unless you dont mind roughing it at the end of the day depends on what order of priorities you put it.

you also have to be prepared for a shock,because you are used to things being on time but when you are in nigeria you have to exercise a whole lot of patience as everything moves atsnails speed,especially bureaucracy for instance i went to do a signature authentification for my shares at my bank and a document just to show that was my signature which wouldnt have taken a week here in uk or the united states takes at least 3 weeks in nigeria which was really frustrating but you will eventually get used to it.

watch out for people aroung you as 9 out of ten are out to scam you in one way or another,dont get me wrong im not saying an average nigerian is a scammer but just like every other country only worse,the mechanic the carpenter,generator repairing etc will sooner scam you than tell you the truth about services so be on the look out.

make sure you have the job and accomodation situation sorted before you go after this budget for funds to be spent for at least 3-6 months independent of any financial expectations. dont go back to nigeria on the strenght of promises or you will be dissappointed.

i am sorry i have not arranged it in chronological order but i am a bit tired mentally and im just multi taking and typing as its coming of my head,ask questions and i will try my best to answer them based on my experience in the 5 months plus and my brother's experience smiley

@usewisdom
pls calm down what busy_body has written doesnt warrant that much vitriol being poured on her,why cant we nigerians calmly and rationaly state our views without resorting to name callings?no one will bother reading your comments no matter how helpful when you have started with curses and infantille verbal barbs.
by the way busy_body is totally right about zambrano, the law is retroactive meaning that irrespective of what the status was before the very last judgement the latest judgement will triumph over and above what has been obtained before.
besides i hope you realise and yu can find it in the european treatise which i can make available for you if you want,judgement from the ECJ and also european directives and regulations SUPERCEDE either english or irish or any other ec domestic immigration laws,furthermore in an event where there is a clash between the domestic laws of the member state and the european directives/regulations the EU directives will triumph without any question.
the whole point of my preamble as far as this issue is concerned,zambrano will supercede any irish domestic immigration law,in fact the ukba have already started treating the relevant cases that fall under the zambrano purview

i even had a case where a nija boy whos father is a top government offical approached me cos he knew i like a gal dat i didnt knw is bi-sexual and said if i want her i and him must be lovers while d gal can bring her les friend and the 4 of us can have it together, it was so sick i ran 4 my backside grin grin grin
