Far away Uk. Wetin concern me. They might leave or stay. Who cares.

You should be bothered only if you live there.

Btw, Create a thread about the CBN Forex policy, Create about the tomato pest, about how to tackle Inflation, Just create anything that's BIG and affects Nigeria. Your post here is of no meaning to the average Nigerian

bodejohn:
You mean "all fidelity" naira MasterCard, think of it, will fidelity send out information about a GT bank card? Probably NO.

I use a GTB Naira MasterCard and mine has been disabled too. But when I contacted GT_help on twitter, they said their cards have been restricted on SOME platforms international transactions in line with CBN rule

dprinz99:
does this mean that,if u have already applied for Form
A in your bank before the new policy and using the old rate, will CBN still use this pls rare for me?
cos I applied barely some wheels bk

My brother, I'm in the same dilemma. But the backlogs CBN cleared yesterday was at 280 to 1$. Not sure about the Euros.

Deadline for payment of tuition is July 1 and still yet, I haven't been debited. I'm Waiting till Thursday, if nothing happens then I will be forced to withdraw my money and look for fast alternatives.

After many rejections, appeals and back and forths between various immigration authorities, Theodorsdottir said there was a "twist". A special immigration committee reviewing Eze's case said the time limit to send Eze back to Sweden might have expired, and advised him to go to the
immigration office and have his application for asylum processed.

Eze went to the immigration office as instructed to pick up the paperwork, and was told to wait 45 minutes, which he did.
According to Theodorsdottir, unbeknownst to him, the police officer was calling the immigration office. And then another twist. "The police said I should come to sign and all
of a sudden they took me into custody. They arrested me. I spent the night in jail," Eze recalled.

"They next morning they said they were deporting me. I said I should go and get my stuff from my house. They said no. They took me to the airport and manhandled me.

Stockholm, Sweden - As Eze sat in the pews at a church where he goes most mornings to pray, his phone buzzed with a new message.

His Icelandic teacher was checking in on
him, giving him support. A calm and composed man, Eze began to cry, the emotion intensifying as he continued to
read. His friends in Iceland were standing with him, the message said, they would fight for him.

Eze Okafor, 32, had been living in Iceland for the last four years, working as a cook in a local restaurant, learning the Icelandic language, building a community. "Iceland is my home now. I have contributed to the society here. Many people know me. My friends have become my family," he told Al Jazeera.

Eze fled Nigera after being targeted by Boko Haram. In 2010, he and his younger brother, Okwy, were attacked in retaliation for not joining the armed group. "They tried to recruit me, but I refused." Members of Boko Haram stormed their house in Maiduguri, Borno State, in Northeastern Nigeria. Eze was stabbed in the head and face. Okwy was killed. Lol. Eze could not go to Enugu or Anambra but took the long boat journey to Iceland.

Soon after, Eze fled Nigeria and made a long and dangerous boat journey to Europe, where in 2011 he sought asylum in Sweden. He told his story and showed his still fresh and infected wounds, including the gash over
his eye, which he feared would cost him his eyesight. He was denied asylum and made his way to Iceland.
He applied for asylum in Iceland in 2012 but was denied.
He has been working with a lawyer, Katrin Theodorsdottir, who then applied for permission for Eze to stay in Iceland on humanitarian grounds, as his case has slowly made its way through the system. Eze said in October he was given temporary residency and could work.

His case in Iceland has hinged on what time limit is relevant to his asylum request, as defined by Article 19 of the Dublin Regulation, which determines which EU member state is responsible for asylum seekers.

I don't get it, I thought NYSC was for 30yrs and below.
Go get an exemption if you are older plz.
Nigerians sha

My brother, learn to understand laws.

Exemption is only for those who graduated after 30. The man could have graduated years ago and absconded, or decide to postpone NYSC.

So if you graduated 20years ago and immediately went abroad, when you are back, you will be obliged to serve your country no matter how old you are by then

queencalipso:
Lolz!! But don't you reply her messages or try to call her when you are not watching? At least you gave up two matches for her and even had the time for settlement on bed. Same can not be said for the op based on the chat. BTW, did you call her a b!tch when she asked you to choose between she and the game? I guess not.

Note: am not categorically saying the guy is cheating that's why I said she should have more than enough reason to end it if she so wish. All am saying is euro 2016 is so lame an excuse for not replying her messages or even having little time for her. And am also sure the euro is not the reason for his rudeness.

Again, what happened to the time b4 and after the three matches? Those times were enough to talk to the woman you claim to love. I also understand from the write up that they use to watch match together but this time its different; that calls for a lot of concern.

Am sure your settlement with your girl on bed was after the 8pm match Abi no be so?

Yeah. You are right. I'm not like the Op's boyfriend or rather ex-bf. I'meven surprised a guy could call his girl a bitch. Shows he has no iota of respect for her. If there was, but not anymore.

About the last part ehn. You are also right

CC: queencalipso

The Euro is being played 2pm, 5pm and 8pm everyday. My girl is behaving like the Op and thinks I'm cheating but you guys have to understand the way we men think.

I'm not in support of all the rude talk of the boyfriend but please, can ladies desist from asking us to choose between You and football. Both are very important and We know our choice.

Last time out, bae was at my place. She stopped me from seeing 2 matches but When it was almost 8pm, I told her I was going. She was like, "You have to choose between me and the Euro". Tough decision but You guessed my choice.

I sure wasn't going to miss Italy Vs Belgium. We resolved it later sha on the bed

chrisley024:
CBN has announced the new flexible forex regime.

Those doing Form A should help inform the house on the new exchange rate

Do you understand what they said. The only thing I understood out of the long epistle is that the new rate will be out by Monday.

Don't blame me. I studied Agriculture: D

misscareer:
how is he a gentleman?

Waiting for months.

I met my Fiancee in school back in Feb 2014 and I hit it the next day. After confirming the sexual compability, I made my choice. One girl before her was telling me how she disliked sex and consider it a chore, I didn't even waste time to dispose of her even though I loved her back then.

So I'm surprised there are guys out there who would wait for months.

The guy is such a gentleman.
He waited for months

louisilva:
Pls stop posting outdated post. The vangard article is dated may 25 but CBN is yet to announce its new policy which was sheduled for noon today.
Whatever d case keep ur fingers crossed

Still the same policy. But I pray we get it at the same CBN rate.

Well, CBN press conference is at 2pm today. An hour left.

rapidosings:
Nope, according to vanguard nigeria, the rate will remain intact for students.

Policy Implications

By the new exchange rate regime, CBN would allow the
Naira to float against the US dollar at the inter-bank
market, rather than holding on to a fixed peg.

What this means, however, is that buyers of foreign
exchange for importation of goods, holiday, school
fees, medical tourism, online payments etc, will have to
source from the inter-bank market-determined rates
and will no longer be able to buy forex at N199 or
whatever official rate the CBN decides to adopt.

enibal:
@millie I feel the old rate would still be used...... for ur Form A

I really hope so. Thanks.

@ UncleJudax, it cannot be 280/Euro. Dollar itself is 286 so I'll be surprised if Euro doesn't get to 320. They just want to be make it official today.

futurewise11:
Form A transaction will be based on CBN rate. It will be higher than the present rate. Lets estimate euro to 330(as against present cbn rate of 230)to 1 naira. Meaning for 8k euro you need to budget 330×8,000
=2,640,000....its unfavourable
The only benefit is parallel market rate will crash at the long run.the gap between cbn rate and aboki's will be reduced.



Very sad.

Thank you.

Now my problem is, I already did my Form A and I'm yet to be debited. With the flexible exchange rate policy to be released today, at what rate am I going to be charged?

The old or the new rate?

Please, Any economist in the house.

With the new flexible exchange rate devaluation , Will we be getting the naira to euro exchange at the interbank rate?

Pls check ur inbox, I sent u PM

Bartork:
Ok
I didn't know yours is different

I don't mind. It doesn't matter to me if you've been here before or today. I just needed info and clearance.

So I'd be informed. On how to proceed.
Thanks for the clearance

What information do you want exactly?

Bartork:
The admission letter doesn't carry any thing about fees as such. Please did you request for it or how did you prove the 8k is all for studies.

Mine was not 8k for blocked account. Not all courses in Germany are free. Mine is a fee paying European Joint Course(4200€/year).

I have been here before. I just had to open this account after I got banned.

opaluwajohn1:
Please how did you get the school fees invoice

The school sent it to me.

Plismoll:
Sparkle01, kindly PM me. I have been trying to do that over here but it's not working. I need info about FORM A at First Bank.
Thanks!

I opened an account and did my Form A at first bank on Thursday. Though it was for tuition.

I went with all needed documents ( Passport, Admission letter, School fees invoice, notification of result as my certificate isn't ready yet)
They helped me write the letter to debit and I only needed to sign and fill the Form A form. It was straightforward and I was told I would be debited this week. So I'm still waiting.

Nawa o.

If you feel your religious obligations will not allow you participate in the scheme, defer to batch B. It's as simple as that.

Nigeria is a secular country and as such, no religious group has a right to hold the country to ransom.

Thank you.

The embassy only directed me to their website and dodged the question. I'll go physically by Monday once I'm done with form A for tuition

SGF forgot to mention Fashola and Kemi Adeosun. They are the most sick in this Government. It is these sickness that rendered both of them useless.

Sorry. Technicality useless

Hello people,

Please I got admitted for a European masters and I will be in Germany for the first semester only. Do I need to open a blocked account of 8040 euros or 4100 euros

Third time I'm posting this. And some people will rather ignore and hoard information than help someone out.

Boko haram kidnapped you and they let you go to the park because 'you forgot something' which made you escape?
