CrazyMan:

The answer to your question depends on a number of factors. Where did you get your degree in Cell Biology? How long have you practiced? You would also need to show your NYSC discharge certificate or exemption certificate depending along with your degree certificate (of course) and then pay the required fees and you'll be registered. If you are really serious about it, Whenever you are in Abuja, a visit to the Pharmacist's Council will give you more specific details.

Good luck.

Thanks for responding.
To your questions, I got my B.Sc Cell Biology from the University of Lagos and I will be going for my Nysc in May.

It's doesn't take much. Advise just get a work and serve as a pharmacy attendant in a well and reputable pharmacy within your locality, within few years you would be familiar with the job. I know someone without even a degree just ssce* but he knows everything about pharmaceutical. When you achieve your experience then you negotiate with your boss and then open a new branch but license under him and do attend some of their training and seminars.

Thank you so much for this piece. I really appreciate it.

Is it possible to do a post-graduate in Pharmacy?

I did not study Pharmacy but Cell Biology and Genetics. I love things about health. Being a Medical Doctor was my aim but cut-off marks after three attempts made me go for an alternative course. Now that I am out of sch, I still av this passion for health.
Pls people, what will it take me to own a Pharmacy?

What if children come immediately you marry today?

I still believe that you both can wait a year. Phone and Skype calls can help with communication

Him being the boss of his own should make his time more flexible

Ok. I really appreciate ur response,thanks.

bukatyne:


Unfavorable how?

If it is a long distance relationship, how have you both gotten to know yourselves so far?

Can't he come over a weekend? He can get 2 days leave 2wks/ 1 month in advance to see you (depending on his Company's policy)

Please do not be in a rush

Unfavorable to our communication esp cos we update each other abt almost everything.
He used to be in Lagos before he relocated to Benin.it's not easy for him coming down here cos he's d boss of his own.
Funny enuf, we aren't in a rush. Rush in d sense of bringing up children(we aren't ready in dat aspect). We want to achieve our plan for the future together not just as close friends but as a couple. He is one of the ministers in his church and I also have a calling in d ministry.

bukatyne:


You are still very young.

Why can't you both wait a year?

That way you would have gotten some savings (upto N100K if not more) and you would be able to contribute to building your new home in addition to whatever your parents can afford.

It would also help your parents prepare more for the wedding (You are the first child getting married and they want it to be 'big'). Both parents support your marriage, it is just the timing that is an issue to them.

I get your point but honestly,waiting might not be favorable to us. He is based in Benin city while I,in Lagos. He manages a company,so you can imagine how busy he is daytime.and my parents wouldn't buy the idea of me paying him a visit while we aren't yet married cos they have given me only one opportunity and I have exhausted it.

bukatyne:


How old are you?
Do you have any savings or can you contribute anything to the ceremony/home today?
Does your man have a good job to sustain the both of you (since you would just be going for service)

I don't the see the hurry IMHO

Waiting for your answers

Thanks

I am 24. I don't have any savings and yes,my fiance can carter for us

bellong:


Your part will be made easier when he comes with his parents to ask for a date.

Wouldn't it mean we are conforming to wat my parents av in mind of a big wedding?

Richiy:


What is your fiance saying about it? You both have to be on one boat. If you can convince him you are ready now, I believe his can also convince his parents. Let him know what you want.

To be honest,both of us dnt want a loud wedding but my parents are looking at something big.asoebi,big hall,guests,etc.and we dnt av the money for 'unnecessary' spending now.I can't push all the expenses to my fiance.something has to come from my side too n since I dnt av any savings now,looking to my parents for contribution and unfortunately,they dnt av too much for now.

bellong:


Tell him to convince his people Once he is able to do that, he will come with his people to meet your parents. Convincing your parents will not be a task you need to do anymore.

He is still on it,trying to convince them.
I was thinking I had a part to still play from my side...

jaybee3:

No they won't so long as you don't keep going back to them for favours.

Hmmmm. Ok. Thanks a lot.

jaybee3:


I'm afraid there is really little you can do if they are paying for it.

You have no reason to be worried since both of you seems committed to the same goal.

Thanks for ur honest reply. I tld my fiance I am taking things easy wit them considering the fact they are the ones bringing the money but he is not comfortable wit it. He is scared they would av a say in our affairs when we get married.

Good morning everyone. Pls I need ur advice.
I have known my fiance for some yrs now and we plan settling down. One of the factors I love abt him is that he thinks ahead(a real goal-setter). Both families have given their consent to the extent that the traditional list has been given to them. The thing now is, we intend getting married as soon as possible(in April) in order to get things formal n avoid side talks...and also considering our spiritual positions.but when I mentioned it to my parents n he to his pple,they objected to it saying it's too impromptu. My parents are saying we have to "prepare well"(spending-wise) from our side and I think his pple are assuming he will "forget" abt them once he gets married(since he assists the family,though the last child).I am from Abia state and he is from Edo state.I am currently learning fashion designing while awaiting Nysc in May. I av tried convincing my parents I dnt want to wait but get married but they r thinking I am the one forcing the guy to marry me.N.B,I am d fourth child and 2nd daughter,none of my siblings are married yet. So most times I try to stand my grounds,they hush me and this is also making my fiance think am not ready to settle down with him yet. Yes,my parents(esp my mum) are disciplinarians. Pls,wat is required of me to prove to them I am ready to become a wife?
