Some sellers do ship directly to Nigeria but some don't, so before buying an item always check if the seller will ship international and always read the item descriptions before any purchase.
Thanks for that insight

vonskyes:
That's quite an experience. And you've just spoken the truth about the challenges in the Multi-level Marketing scheme. I think the problem is from the upline, once they sign u up, they leave u alone to fend for yourself. They don't follow-up your progress to see how good you are doing. They should actually encourage, motivate you and sometimes go out of their way to get a prospective downline for u if u have trouble signing anybody because they will still profit from it also. The best thing is to work in a team, make-out strategies together and plan how to progress in the business.

I just joined flp in oct and i have been having the same challenges too. But that has made me sit down to draw out plans on how i can make it out on my own. I actually have a few ideas but still need to fine tune.
I will advice you not to give up yet, just change your strategy. The old strategy of hawking products and walking from street to street is no longer effective. I am building up a team but i'm still short on human resources if you don't mind we can work together and share ideas.
I was feeling frustrated one day until i read a presentation by Mr John and it just got me fired up!!! Send me ur email, let me share the document with you. Don't give up my friend. Best Regards.
Thanks Bro for ur encouraging words. I would love to have the document. Send it to my email

Thanks

Let me add little clarity to the Op explanation.

Sometime can't stand alone without ago i.e they go together. Sometime goes with ago. E.g Sometime ago Nigeria currency used to be as high as the British pounds.

In the other hand, sometimes does stand alone. It simply means not all the time, not often ,in some cases etc. E.g sometimes I do shed tears.

While some time means a particular time. An exact time and so on and so forth
Business › Re: Who Knows About Forever Living Products? by Mcslize:
I want to share my experience with ''Forever Living Product Company''
it is a great company but it is not as rosy as people paint it to be.

I met a friend some what May 2014 which through an exchanged of pleasantries lead to letting me know about the company which he told me he was in a managerial position as at the time we met. He told me how people were being paid huge amount of money every month and all that.

For the fact that I told him I was looking for a job made him to invite me to one of the forever living product seminars which I attended.
If anyone attend forever living product seminar 1 will have no other option than to join. Everything will be explained as simple as ABC making it all rosy but not as rosy as one would think if only one would also see other challenges attached to it.

In the seminar my thinking faculty was formatted that immediately I left I started thinking of how to get the money to start which my topline asked me to bring 70k for a start. I couldn't know how to get that amount of money as a student. The only option left for me then was to borrow the money. From who? I asked myself. I only had one person my father. What will I tell him? Another thought came. I will pressurise him to loan me the money. I finally did pressurise him and transfered 70k to my account which he borrowed from their coorporative with the mind that I will pay back in a month time.

Immediately I received the alert I called my topline about my break through in convincing my Dad to send me the money. My topline felt so happy about it for the fact that if I register the following day as his downline he would be rewarded with 25k as a manager as a result, he reassured me that I would pay the money back within a month time as he would be assisting me to sell the products and would help me to register people under me as well. I believed him after making those statements and felt confident to start. Atleast my confidence was 100% with those words.

Things later went sour after I had started. I began to see that it was not as the way I was made to believed.There're alot of challenges. Challenge of how to invite people to seminar, challenge of how to get people to register under u started to be my biggest challenges.

All day long I was be in the street inviting people to seminar. I was talking to over 50 people about Forever Living Product company , the effectiveness of the company products and bogus rewards one would get from the company. I normally have a book where I write down people's name and phone numbers with the mind that they would come for the seminar. I also made sure that I place a call to all the people I invited to the seminar but to my greatest surprise non would show up out of the 50 people invited. They always complain of not having chance. Some even went ahead to tell me that their husbands won't allow them to attend and so many other complaint. I felt so discouraged flashing back to the money I borrowed with all the mouth I made to my Dad of paying back the emoney. If no one register under me that means I won't be paid. Even the products I bought with the 70k ,I couldn't sell them. Selling them became a problem as many people will always complained of being too expensive. I moved from street to street, shop to shop Hawking the products and each day returned back home without being able to sell a single product.

Whomever I talked to about the products always complain of the price of the products even though the products are very effective and good. Couple with the fact that Nigerians love cheap things even if the thing doesn't work so, bringing something with higher price is a thorn in the flesh to them. I felt more and more discouraged as the month proceed ed faster. Time is not on my side to sell the products & refund the money to my Dad to give back to their coorporative. My Dad had already started calling asking me 'how far I had gone?' I couldn't cope as I knew there was no way I could pay the money as I had not been able to register anybody nor sold any product. I even started using the products as I couldn't sell them. But was still punctual with seminars despite all my challenges. I started disturbing my topline to abide by his promise to me. He affirmed his promise and help me to sell few products but there was still much remaining to be sold. I kept disturbing him as he had a way of convincing people to buy the products. The disurbance became too much & he told me he can't continue selling my products as he also have his to sell. My discouragement rose to 90% and along the line I stopped attending seminars. That was how I ported out a month later as I couldn't register anybody. And in the end I felt sick cuz of the anxiety of the 70k my Dad borrowed for me from their coorporative. He later used his money to pay back before he loose a son.

Lesson: FLP company is a great company but you must be good at convincing people to register and buy your products.

The poster is right. I live in Canada but buy most of my things from china, most of the sites offer free shipping to Canada and probably to Nigeria as well. The clothes are extremely cheap but make sure you check the rating. You can check abibaba.com or aliexpress.com for clothing and everbuying.com for electronics. I don't mind doing business with anyone who is interested. Scammers abeg no contact me
Hi Bro, does everbuying.com ship to Nigeria?

it baffles me too, even d initial skul fee(49500) s too high 4 a fed.uni........d fees aint ma P now though, dis my name inconsistency issue wan give me h@t attack. I just pray dy start clearance soon cos I av oda option
You have no problem with ur names. If I remember very well u used Ogbeni Dennis O. That O is the initial of ur middle name. As long as ur surname and ur first name Dennis are the same in the rest of ur documents u don't have any problem. Not in ur case. The only people that will have problem are those that have mispelt names. Those that maybe used their grandpa name in their waec and later used their real father name in jamb are the ones that will have such problem durig clearance. Don't give urself unnecessary anxiety cuz ur name stil remain Ogbeni Dennis the most two important names. Ur middle name is just for fancy. So even if u abbreviate it it doesn't really matter as long as ur surname and first name is the same in the rest of ur documents. That fee is just too high. One will be looking at a budget of 150k for the whole clearance cuz we still have other petty dues to pay books to buy. 150k is just a perfect budget which is so high. I am just concerned of how to gather that amount now.

Yes, most people have gotten theirs already. All you need do is: get the Jamb e-transaction card for a thousand naira at Jamb's office or better still from a cafe that processes anything Jamb related (price varies though). They will charge you additional fee for processing and all that i.e, printing the provisional admission letter.
Note: There are actually two letters to be printed out; the original copy (for the candidate) and the duplicate copy (for institution use only) respectively. My guess is, we're to submit the latter for clearance and keep hold of the former for future references.
I hope this helps.
Thanks , that means the single e-transaction card is what wll be used to print out the original and d duplicate letter or one will buy two e-transaction cards?

Firstly, contact the seller and lay a complain. Whatever solution the seller provides will determine your next step.

Advise: Next time, don't buy in bulk like that, rather, order few pieces and opt for free shipping if you think the shipping cost via third party shipping is high.
All right thank u very much

There will be a problem if ur name was mispelt o during clearance o. But don't bother for now cuz is not gonna be easy to rectify it. Clearance officers do pay attention to mispelt names some have faced issues like that. Lets see how it will go during d clearance. Do not bother for now.

Hello everyone, greetings!

Please, my younger brother wishes to study Mechanical Engineering in the University. But in WAEC, he didn't write Biology or Agriculture even in NECO. Now, he has gone to FUTO and FUTO requires a credit in Biology for Mechanical Engineering.

He has also checked MOUAU (Michael Okpara University Of Agriculture, Umudike) and they require a credit in Biology or Agriculture. Now he's stranded and doesn't know what to do.

My question is:

Which University doesn't require any of these two subjects before they can give admission?

Thanks as I look forward to your replies.
He doesn't neccessarily require Biology for Engineering course. As long as he had Credit in English ,Maths, Chemistry and Physics and maybe credit in any other subject he is good to go. Biology is only neccessary for those going for Medical courses

Bobbyzain:
but must ur Bsc or ND course certificate have to b dsame with course u r going for through dis direct entry.?or can dey be off diffrent faculty?
Your Bsc or ND course must not neccessarily be the same but it should be related. E.g My ND course was Biomedical Engineering Technology. That possibly means that it can be used for a Direct entry into any Engineering course because we did related Engineering courses/topics like: EEC115 Electrical Engineering science ; concept of electric current flow, simple Dc circuit, description of basic DC circuit, solving problems, MTH112 Calculus, EEC139 electrical Circuit Theory 1 & 2: Mesh Analysis, Kirchoff Voltage Law, Nodal Analysis etc.

In all, your Bsc or ND must be a related course. It doesn't actually have to be the same course. For example all life science courses like microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology, Botany, zoology could be used to put in for a Direct entry in Medicine or any other Medical course. Those in Art or management science could use any of their possessed Bsc or ND cert to put in for any course in art and mangement science so long as it is related. You can't use a a Bsc in Banking and finance to put in for a direct entry in Engineering. Meaning you can't cross from your related faculty to another faculty that is not related to your Bsc or ND cert. Hope this is clear?
