jt2010:

What I believe you need to do is book a hotel from wakanow.com website or the hotel itself.... do not pay!!! Book for like a week or 2 weeks and limited your wife return ticket to 2 weeks (same as your own ticket), then you can claim that is the hotel you will be staying at for the whole duration of your stay in uk. All you will need to pay to do later is to extend your wife and son tickets return ticket dates with the airline.

@ JT2010...Thanks for the suggestion, however, when hotel reservation is booked I understand you have 24 hrs to the proposed date to cancel,or else you may not be able to cancel any more, also if we extend my wife's n baby's return ticket by 2 weeks will it not come with additional cost.

Thank you.

I dont know if the explanation that we booked it for a short period and will renew if we like the place be acceptable to the POE

The bolded was initially omitted.

Thank you.

I really appreciate the swift responses... you guys are the bomb,imagine all this consultancies for free . Anyway, I am considering making a fresh hotel reservation for a day or two and will eventually stay for the days, after which we ill move to my in-lwas(wife relations)place. If ask at the POE while just a day or two days reservation when our return ticket is implying that we ill be around for 2 and 4 weeks respectively. I dont know if the explanation that we booked it for a short period and will renew if we like the place.

I really dont want any mistake to spoil this trip/fun I really need to give my family a treat. Whats your take please.

Thank you.

Goodday great people of Nairaland...

Please I have a UK Tour/visit visa for myself wife and 1 year old baby..We used hotel reservation to apply but got it cancelled after the visa was issued,we are actually staying in my wife's relations place(though not mentioned in our application cos of documentation palaver). I want to ask if the clearance officer in the UK will raise issues concerning our not having hotel reservation at the point of entry, because we stated that we ill be staying in a hotel during the visa application process?..

Also Can i stay for 2 weeks while my wife and baby stays over for 4 weeks before returning to Nigeria? if yes hope it will not affect our 2 years renewal.( Our Visas was granted in December to June 2013) This is our first visa as well.

I will appreciate great response as usual.

Sorry Fhemmy, i did not mention the specifications....i am talking of BOLD 5 and BOLD 4.Thank you.

Hi fhemmmy.

Hello Nairalanders.

I am a Banker haven't put in 6 years but I am feed up with the industry and desire to do my own business. Therefore I am researching into several business to possibly start any.

I was recently introduced into the Car Tracking business by an existing staff of a Car track Company. The guy has technical background with relevant hands on practical experience. He is willing to work with me if I can provide the funding to start the business. He has given me start up estimate but I am trying to understand the whole stuff all by myself. Cos I know I must not gamble at all in business.

Please I want to ask Nairalanders if any one knows the prospects of such business and the regulatory issues ie required license etc, to operate such an organisation without infringing on the law.

I really want to do business right. I am a Finance professional with strong bias in credit structuring.

I will appreciate contribution.

Thank you.

Since he is your husband, I am sure he will like stuffs like Tie, cufflins, inner clothes like Singlet/Boxers etc. But if he is a footbal fan like me, his club jersey is also kool.

Best of luck.

Thanks for the response @ Macrowave, Yes i mean pharmaceutical retail outlet. I will appreciate more response from the House.

Hello Nairalanders.

I m considering starting up a pharmaceutical business, I will appreciate contributions in terms of the nitty grities and the prospect of the business.

Thank you.

Hello Amcon hopefuls'

I am expectant as well haven't seen the AMCON panelist at Mullineer Towers Lagos.

I want to encourage us to be steadfast and remain prayerful due to the secrecy surrounding the ongoing recruitment exercise. I understand some seniors/Unit heads had received offer letters I also know that there is alot of Man know man going on as well (which is typical of govt jobs in 9ger) It seems the Amcon authorities are confused at some point, though they are bent on recruiting the very best but there seems to be some are powerful forces from the TOP trying to pull their candidates through.

As far as God is still on the throne. I believe I will be given an offer even if i do not have any body in Abuja that will control things on my behalf.

We will get there. Let keep the thread alive!!!! Cheers.

Count you self lucky, oceanic is one of the best place to work as a marketer in present day new generation banks in nigeria.it not too target driven like the rest,especially were u are coming from zib.and you are even given an a/o offer ,no be God for u.
Any way i work with Oceanic ,am a marketer so am sure of what am saying.Can sent an e-mail to me on sly4reall@yahoo.com for extra gist,Congrats.

Are u sure of your source,pls what was ur source? pls, be serious this not a forum for april fool.

It pains me,my heart bled for Edo state considering what the power that be has turn the state into .i was privilege to grow up in this state being an edo born i have been in benin for better part of my 26 years on earth,i was already conscious of political issues and happening throughout d 8 years the cancaworm  has eaten in the state,
Gentlemen and ladies please open ur mind remove perochial thinking,exclude sentiments,forget party affiliations.
Lets discuss roads,
if you travel the length and breath of this country by road,when you get to Edo state you only require those pot holes in every major roads and minor streets to know you are in edo state.if you try the state road during the raining season,there is no need discribing the experience because for those that are not in d state you will feel i am exaggarating.no vehicle can use the streets,
Industry,
edo state has the best industrial setup in the country u need to visit the great,highly publicised, commissioned fruit juice industry at Ehor.funny enough i hail from this part of the state.i ve been there personally.HOPE YOU PEOPLE ARE ENJOYING THE PRODUCTS IN THE MARKET, what of the fertilizer factory at IKPESHI  nawaooooooooo, but it on record as an achievement of d admistration.
In short if we carry out a credible ratings of state governors perfomance Lucky must come last.
pls it okay for now, the only way you can justify pdp continious rule in the state, is if and only if you are privilege to belong to the lucky few that holds political position curtesy of pdp.it means you are selfish,
Ordinarily if the election was free and fair pdp could have come last in that election.after AC ,ANPP and other little parties alike.
To put records straight if you actually voted pdp in edo state during d april 14th poll, just singnify by making a post on this forum.it will definitely b difficult to see any body tha voted pdp, pls inec do justice in edo state.
