Stvpid question. You can't run a business on sentiments. People ll invest wherever there is less stress in running a business.

Peace would claim she misplaced it, but if investigators could prove/identify a relationship between peace and okoye........ Kasala don burst....... 😂😁

Hope she reported the displacement. Otherwise she is toast.

I m not exactly sure why people like trouble. Hope he is caught and punished to the fullest extent of the law with his accomplices.

Of course, if Oba needs medical attention from the only cardiologist in the hospital, what will happen?

So stup^d

naija2024:
Morning guy. Just noticed that my Nigerian passport expired about 3 weeks ago and need to travel to Nigeria soon. Don't think i will be able to get appointment in time over here in the UK to renew my passport here before i travel to Nigeria. I have been told that Nigerians can travel to Nigeria on expired passport but i dont know how true that is or if its was just a short term thing.

1. Can anyone please tell me if i can indeed in this 2024 travel to Nigeria from the uk to Nigeria on expired Nigerian passport without any headache with immigration on arrival in Nigeria?

2. Is there an official government document i need to carry with me to say Nigerians can travel with expired Nigerian passport?

If yes, where do i get this document from?

P. S. I will also be carrying my British passport with me just in case official need to validate the information on my expired Nigerian passport i will be travelling with to Nigeria.

Hope to hear from you guys soon.

Than you.

You can always go back to your country expired passport or not. Abike Dabiri said so

I am suspecting Okoye used her old ID badge, when she was a student nurse.........

How did he get it? This is a public service announcement ,including to myself,to destroy old BRPs and ID Cards

I am onitsha born and bred . I agree with you 100% . Do not take buses in Onitsha. Go to Asaba.

Oracleee:
I am not a tribalist, but I refute this claim. Anambra especially onitsha is filled with miscreats and so much low lifes that with the crime probability, you will agree lagos is learning. Let me share 3 major experiences that made me detest that place like poison.

1. I was going to Ishiagu in ebonyi very close to Four corner Enugu. I really don't know my way around the east so I took Public bus from Lagos to onitsha and from onitsha, I was going to take Ishiagu or so. Bus driver from Lagos advised me to be careful when I get to upper iweka as it's filled with badboys (in his language). But then I underestimated it. Was almost robbed twice in broad daylight. Got to part at upper iweka. They don't even tell you were buses are going, they just ask where you're going. I said Ishiagu they told me 7000. I paid and was like finally a straight bus. I familiarized with people inside the bishop and told them how far is ishaigu. They asked what I'm going for there and I told them isn't that where the bus is going? Turned out bishop carried lots of IMo, Abia etc. Came down to meet rhw agbero who already gave me ticket, dude was so rough and was like he can't refund me bla bla bla. I won't get robbed over my hard earned money. I made a big scene and locked the guys clothe. The park manager another thug was like he will give me 4000 and 3000 for ticket. 3000 for just sitting in your car for few minutes. My 7000 or nothing. They folks inside the bus came down and the showdown started. They were forced to refund me 6000 I still didn't leave till I get the full refund. It later turned out from onitsha to Enugu four corner was 1200 and four corner to Ishiagu I saw a drop for 2000.


2. going back trip, my host took me to four corner and from there I got direct bus to head bridge. If I'm correct Op would be talking about the park immediately after head bridge where lots of luxurious bus have pit stops. I'm to take bus to ibadan as I wanted spending some time in ibadan before going back to Lagos. Spoke with the supposed driver, said 7k no big deal. Na so them dey carry Lagos passenger, ilorin passenger any passenger you see. We got to know when we all sat and joked around on the bus. But I will definitely get to Ijebu around 7-9 with the time if it's not direct bus to ibadan, I may be stranded. Na so I come down, driver are you sure this bus will get to ibadan? If you stop for Ijebu you won't like what I will do o. Driver said taaarh leave that thing na straight to ibadan. Iwo road. We were two going to ibadan in the vehicle. Na so one driver sitting down, Yoruba man told me stylishly Eko lo n lo o. Omoh I changed it for the driver. I can go dirty if I need to I evolved due to constant bullies in secondary school to be hyperdefensive if I feel cheated. Omoh baba at 60+. I told him he was a old crook and tyrant. Ilorin people dey inside bus, Lagos people and Ibadan, are you a kidnapper? One of the agberos wanted going physical bit he calm down as he was confused on who I was. Las Las they went abusive emotionally, like this man is old enough to be your father nna. Story for the gods. I collected my money and said goodbye to the lady I already collected her number. She was going to ibadan also but very very unsmart. Immediately I walk small I saw one sienna with Oyo YYY Plate. Ibadan. He stopped 7000 ni o. Conductor said In a deep molete voice. 3000 ni mo ni. Conductor be like o ni oko wo. Shey was San 5000. Oya eduro. Na so I reach ibadan around 7. I later called the lady, they got to Ijebu around 8 and driver dropped all ibadan and ilorin passenger and gave then stipends. I asked if none of them slapped him, She said they were mostly ladies. I ended up picking her up around 1am in new garage Ibadan and helping her to her place.


Onitsha is filled with lowlifes, rogues, thieves and scam artiste

Gosh. You have every right to be angry. You did the right thing by using an atm attached to the bank. They should have been watching their machine to stop scammers from setting up shop there.

Abeg do them anything wey dey your mind. I hope you get your money back

efembaba:
Thanks.
I didn't donate to any church POS or any POS
I don't trust anybody and I keep my stuff personal.

Yesterday when I was trying to withdraw at the bank? I noticed something new.
I was told I had to scan my card for security reasons. The stuff is on top of the machine (ATM). I tried scanning as told then I inserted my card but the whole thing started misbehaving asking me to insert my 8-16 digits pin (It was the first time I ever experienced such). I didn't fully know what the 8-16 digits meant but I inserted my ATM pin which to my surprise was visible on the screen. I immediately deleted

I strongly suspect that the guy behind me (who, together with another person who had left at this time, told me about the scanning stuff must have seen my pin when it showed on the screen.

Now the thing is, my card didn't fall down at any time and I am absolutely sure it was my card that was inserted and swallowed.

So, even if the guy I think saw my pin did, how was he able to access my card which is supposed to be in the machine.

I will be going to that bloody bank now. I hope they are ready to see a mad man

GSoleiman:
I hope you're having a good morning!

I am. I have a problem with the word "expat" though. You are an immigrant . When people keep this in mind, it would never occur to them to treat their hosts badly. It's fancy lie words like "expat" that trigger maltreatment.

Goodmorning to you

Expat my foot. Immigrant

Looool. Hilarious.

drimzsmoke:
The guy you're quoting has mental health issues. Remember how someone said 75% of the men on nairaland are not mentally fit. He's among the 1st 5% of the 75%!!!
Ignore him!!!

Thanks. I ve got time though. I ll see what fun I can have with him.

More evidence that you are steeped in the streets. This is like reading a foreign language to everyone on this thread except you.

What are you gibbering about? Gosh #pressignore

OP will find a partner in life. Not a master or a servant but a true partner

toujurs:
Exactly what i typed, before one miscreant, who i am very sure. Can't independently feed herself.

Came for me, I don't understand who feeds women of this generation with all these delusional thoughts, when big boys who are capable of providing these things takes turns on her body, which is very rampant now, they call it "running trains" these women don't respect the fact, struggled to train them in school.

Yet they would finish school, to start prostitution, just for a soft life, they don't want to work.

Always looking for short cuts. To everything that is good.

And you expect the helper, to just give you just like that, because that was how he got it.

Men should better wise up, so they don't settle for someone big boys have banged pleasure out of her coochie.

They don't want to work, always looking for whom, they would put their life time burden on.

You want love, attention, care, mental and financial Support, just one person. Because you have a vagina.

Mtchew, Nonsense.

toujurs:
coochie is ghetto to you? Olodo.

Check your dictionary. And learn.

You are a lot ghetto trash . Smarten up, why don't you?

Why you pressed though? I am single and bitter.

What is a "coochie" ? I dont speak ghetto trash talk . I dont talk to ghetto trash either.

Off to the skip, you go. Byeeeeee

toujurs:
See your mate, who just earned a post graduate degree in law. You are here, exchanging banter.

Later, you will carry your broke ass, around to ask for a rich man, in exchange for coochie

Keep fooling around, time will tell. You will shed tears tyre. Ode.

It's the fact, you women don't know men, are too selective these days.

toujurs:
You must be mentally sick.

You can give her your delusional hope, exactly why you still answer Miss. 😆.

Delusional association of single bitter women.

I am indeed single and bitter. Very single and bitter. The singlest and bitterest of them all

toujurs:
look stop being delusional, and i hope you are not broke. It's not about having a category of men, you should as well consider if these categories of men would want to settle for a 31 year old, while there are so many younger girls with good career path. You should as well be willing to cut down your own taste.

Will you shut it? Leave this thread

The government pays part of the cost if you buy an EV for commercial use. Thats why

Viruses:
Like Lexus stated, as it's mostly used as taxi, it signifies reliability and comparatively cheap maintenance. However, it is not advisable to purchase used EV/hybrid except you can guarantee the battery's health.

I can buy a 2010 petrol/diesel car now and use it for another 10 years if I choose to. But for an EV/hybrid especially the plug in hybrid, once the battery has passed it's life span, it can be very expensive to replace.

Testiebobo:
My sis have being informing me that my younger brother is always wearing my shoes especially the versace one which is my favourite for hanging out with his girlfriend and his friends. But i usually ignore the information.
Unfortunately for him i caught him flexing with that my versace sneakers along with his gang. I was actually returning from airtel office for nin linkage when i caught him on the way.
I decided not to disgrace him among his peers, so when we got home the punishment he was going to serve is to wash my clothes and shoes for 2weeks.
MANY DAYS FOR THE THIEF ONE DAY FOR THE OWNER. Can you just imagine such audacity.

This is fair. Don't borrow anything you cannot afford especially without the owners knowledge

Don't worry. I ll be flying Air Peace so long as I get great service. Well-done

obiekunie01:
pure naija guy writeup!

from the way he writes, i can even tell his tribe and the area he lives in ibadan.

He writes grammatically correct English . Rather unusual for Chinese as they are quite self sufficient

I put it to you that you are not Chinese at all?

@everyone, Pls I just got my skilled worker visa and have paid for Airbnb for 1 week in belfast, Northern Ireland because I need to a base to operate and collect my brp at the post office there.

Pls do you know how to get a cheap house/room(shared flat) to rent in Lisburn area Northern Ireland, my work place.

My employer said I must have a permanent address to start my role with them and this must be done within 28days of my approved sponsored start date.

I plan to be in the country this thursday 11th April to obtain my brp and generate my share code .

The whole thing is quite overwhelming and have started stressing me out

I would email them to say you ve got no money for rent and that you will start looking as soon as you get paid your first salary. Say that you are in a bed and breakfast for now

That 28 days is unreasonable. Somebody is obviously not thinking in that office.

Edit: forgot you needed an address to open an account. My employer then had a house specially to be used to open accounts. I wonder how other people solved this issue? 🤔

What's your source? This is not a beer parlour. You must show your source

Cremate him. Why fly him back? Also he didn't go to Medical School. He is a pharmacist.

What are you talking about?

@Zahra and pls @everybody does Royal Air Maroc allow dry fish and stock fish to the UK?

Yes. Up to a certain weight. Look on their website.

Dlandisgreen:
I need your advise my people. I currently get UC and CB due to my visa status (exempt) but now I have moved to tier 2. I was initially afraid my visa would be denied when I applied to change to T2 as I declared on my application that I accessed benefits. But alas, it was successful. Now that I am on T2 I do not know if I can continue to get the UC and CB or I should tell them to stop it. I am four years to ILR. My UK mum told me not to cancel it that they can not deny me of ILR solely because I accessed benefits. She said I could inform them that I would be paying it back in bits during my ILR application. My people I am now at a cross-road on what to do. Will accessing UC affect my ILR application even when my child would have registered as a British by then? Thanks!

The tier 2 visa no longer exists. When it was in operation. You had no rights to public funds with it.

My people , see o.
Let's try this , shall we

Unfortunately, the court will not use Jesus's commandments to judge, the case will be judge on the basis of discrimination. Has he discriminated against LGBTQ or he respects them but has his own views and beliefs which he will rather promote?

But in case we want to digress, this is the new commandment from Jesus:
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you." The rationale behind this is that some people don't love themselves e.g transgenders, so if they love others like themselves, it's trouble because they hate themselves.

Also, I haven't yet read where he claimed to be homophobic, what I read is his expression of views and beliefs which can be different even in the midst of love.

Where did Jesus write on Facebook about the flawed people he met? Where did he condemn them or shame them ? Instead , he went over to them,had chats, ate with them so much that people called him friend of sinners.

How would he have treated LGBTQ people today? I don't think he would have behaved differently. What do you think?

Its Subjudice now . Shall we agree to disagree till the courts decide.

Goodenoch:
This is still poor, strawman logic.

You're choosing to focus on an irrelevant point because at the end of the day the the Catholic Church still considers some people sinners. The crux of the issue - should people be prevented from taking up jobs in any place where they might interact with people whom their religious beliefs categorise as sinners?

It's a simple 'yes' or 'no' question but we know you'll prevaricate and not actually answer it because doing so will expose how dangerous it is to insinuate that people cannot be bankers if some of their customers will be people they disagree with religiously; and the same for bus drivers, nurses, lawyers, and every other profession that involves human interaction.

Also, can you spell out exactly what his 'homophobic' statements were? Just because you tag '-phobic' to something doesn't mean it is genuinely offensive, untrue or a valid ground to violate someone's free speech rights, especially when a court has declared that he did not break any law, or did you miss that part?

forgot to add lexus, in the US Members of Congress must declare their stock trades within 1 month of trading them.
Because they sit on committees which make decisions that ultimately affect stocks, they can trade stocks based on this information.

It should be illegal of course but they have refused to close this loophole. There is an app that allows you to mirror their trading . They also consistently beat the market.

The risk is that you will be trading based on 1 month old information.
