is Kano airport that bad? They do not check peoples visa before exit from Nigeria. How verifiable is this your statement. If people travel without proper documentation, they will allow them in Kano airport

Kano is one of the airports drugs are being imported...as porous as...

Kano to Cairo, come see small girls the parents paid agents to ship them to Egypt without knowing anyone there. I queried a girl below 20 while on the plane cus she was sitting close to me, she said it was her mum that paid the agent, the agent gave them $100 to share amongst themselves (they were 4) and asked me if she had to cut the note into 4 lol...that was when I concluded these young girls were being trafficked in the name of house girls.

They paid for visa on arrival, we parted in the Cairo airport...who knows the bed services they are giving there. This our government no de try at all. You can't be checked into the plane if you don't mention na UK you de go straight, if you say na stopover...them go ask you to call your agent. Kano airport is the most porous airport! If you wan travel with enough foodstuff with palmoil, use Kano to Heathrow!!!

If you work with those young adults nko? Those ones with gang affiliations, pending court cases cos of GBH, possession of rambo knife with intent to kinikan

You fit dey chill for work make them don go stab one of them for street.

You go come begin explain

He is going to work in a mental hospital eeeh, they don't allow sharp objects and others. The patients are always on observations. Don't write of inexperience, it's just that it's more technical to deal with children and adolescents.

Hi Fam good morning,
I did not come to brag about what am about to type , I have had my own fair share of many unsuccessful job applications and interviews.
With constant practice and prayers I was now fortunate to get 3 offers presently and am now in a dilemma of what to choose, and I beg experienced members to help me come with a decision. The offers are
1.Operational support grade Prison
2.Health Support worker for Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services
3.Trainee Clinical Support worker

Now am a wife and mum and I want to choose a job that I will be happy with in the long run that will also afford me time for my children and my other responsibilities. Please those that have had experiences in the above should help me throw more light so I don't choose the one I will regret and leave a better option.

Thank you all for your contributions.

Avoid that number 2, it is really tiring. I work in a mental health, working with kids is very delicate, any gbese fit sup. The last is better.

One of the many empty sculls amongst the useless gender. Referring you as fish brain would amount to an insult to the fishes, because even the fish is more brainy than this evening newspaper @49

But from the update from , it's likely the driver has a hand in the kidnap.

meeyarh25:
Please can anyone share questions asked at the point of entry for skilled worker visa .

I was just asked the number of years of my visa... stamped!

ImoleNaija:
You think like a mosquito does.

Sha don't mate with your wife with this mentality, so you don't bring more gullible children into this world.

Senseless Marlian, una cup don full. As use.less as Naira!!!

wowcatty:
They said take the child for a dna test to establish paternity since your husband said "you were trying to kill him and that if you kill him, you can't kill all his family" as he rained curses on you. You need to be investigated very well too! Rumors also have it that the child belongs to one of the other Naira Marley's boys.

Misplaced priority! Instead of finding a way to end assault and bullying in entertainment industry, u de talk about paternity. You are too shallow for my liking. Pray you don't lose a loved in whichever way.

Coly2012:
To me he has no family,how can a grown up man be buried like that, even if na Muslim, them no go burial am like a nobody the way Mobad was buried...

To conceal their atrocity!!!!

ukaface:
Maybe they should interrogate you o
Be like you Dey there that day.

Common sense is not common sha, most k.llers are so impatient and wicked. They were tired of his invitations for shows and growth, inshort his being alive de vex then, instead of kill.ing him with a gun that might lead to arrests, they opted for such method but God pass them. May he continue to rest in peace, death is so painful cus I experienced it last month, when the person isn't related, you will take it as a joke but when it touches your loved one, ooh mehn

SmartPolician:
From the way this guy was hurriedly buried with his head bent, one thing is crystal clear: He didn't come from a good family.

I don't even think he was dead, he passed out after being injected...they were tired of always beating and trailing him, the id.iots had to just bury him hurriedly so that he won't wake up! They buried that guy alive, wi.cked set of ppl.

Kenneth4u205:
Foolish senator. Is it everyone that has money for autopsy?. Your suggestion will only make sense is Nigeria government makes Autopsy to be free of charge to everybody. But that will never happen

uche87:
Nigerian Marriages always appear solid and formidable until the union gets a visa. The moment it passes through the UK Point of Entry, it starts to develop cracks until it takes more falls than the Naira under the current Tinubu administration. In this piece, I will be taking a dive into the common reasons why Nigerian marriages struggle on UK soil.

(1). Personal Vendetta:
Marriage as an institution in Nigeria is modeled around patriarchy - a system of male dominance. In this case, the man is the king while the woman is the queen. As you know, the king dominates the queen, and nothing he does is wrong in most cases (especially for the wealthy men). The woman could be forced to endure physical, verbal, psychological, financial abuse, and lots more. She stands to get mocked if her marriage crashes. This creates age-long bitterness and a cold war in the union. Women have a long memory and they hardly forgive. The moment the marriage transits to a society that gives women an upper hand against men, they come for their pound of flesh like Shylock. This destroys the foundation and subsequently brings it to an end.

(2). Level Playing field:
Marriage in Nigeria is a bit lopsided in terms of the professional profiles of the couples. In some cases, the husband might be a doctor while the wife might be selling beauty products or other petty items that cannot sustain her financially. The man steps in, and this gives him an undue edge in the marriage. In the UK where a hard-working bartender can match a nurse financially, and there is a level playing ground, power changes hands. The man who might be an alpha male loses that edge. This kind of equality - an unfamiliar territory for the man, if not well-managed might be the collapse of the marriage.

(3). Cultural Issues:
In the UK, the difference between a man and a woman might be that one menstruates and the other doesn't. In fact, people switch genders according to their moods. In simple terms, there is no duty/responsibility that is totally exclusive to a man or woman. Over here, men go to the market, clean, wash, cook, babysit, run errands, and also fund the home. Local champions who are used to being served like emperors by their wives might struggle to cope with the new environment and could feel short-changed.

(4). Busy Schedules:
It is no longer news that the cost of living in the UK is as high as a COVID-19 patient's temperature. In my previous articles, I have overemphasized how people inevitably work for long hours in order to cope with rising living expenses and financial demands from their families back home. This might affect bonding between young couples and reduce intimacy. Most times, when one party is ready for a "mid-section parley", the other might be unavailable due to conflicting shift patterns, not being in the mood due to mental or physical stress. This gradually takes a negative toll on the marriage.

(5). Women Are Powerful Abroad:
In the West, there are checks to prevent the domination of women by men. This has made women so powerful. In the event of a conflict, the odds are always against the men. The Spanish FA chief, Luis Rubiales learned the hard way for controversially kissing midfielder, Jennifer Hermoso at the recently concluded 2023 Women's World Cup. Also in February 2021, Yoshiro Mori - head of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games Organising Committee, was coerced into resigning after saying 'women talk too much in meetings'. Former Manchester United player, Mason Greenwood apparently ruined his career due to struggles with his partner. In marriage, some women mischievously abuse their powers. A colleague lost his marriage of 5 years after his wife reportedly abused him physically multiple times. A behaviour that was never evident in Nigeria according to him.

(6). Cheating:
A randy man who is obsessed with beautiful women would easily make mistakes in the UK. The UK exposes you to numerous women of different shapes, forms, and beauty. If you think you have seen it all, you need to see the Jamaican, Somalian, Pakistani, Iranian, curvy Kenyans, and some pretty Indian women. It is not just how they look alone but what they are wearing. Some of them might fancy you and might be willing to hand you the cookie on a platter of gold. There are also several single mothers who have nothing to lose. They are ready to 'share it' graciously like the Federal Government palliatives across their community. One person's husband might be hooked to the detriment of his marriage.

(7). Finances:
Another area of challenge in a UK home is money. In an informal survey I personally conducted, I realized it is the most common problem around. It is extremely difficult for a man to singlehandedly foot the household bills in the UK. Paying for everything is easily obtainable in Nigeria where the cost of living is lower. A woman who is used to the Nigerian system might be hoarding cash, and under-declaring her finances. This is done to force the man to fill the vacuum. This creates discontentment, and over time, frustration starts to hit the man. He might be tempted to seek solace outside the marriage to boost his mental health.

Any update and have you gotten it...seems I am on the same spot

Mine took 2 months, relax

On good days when politicians are having functions in Abuja.. those airlines carry full load and make cool money. On other days, their aircraft get filled up more than half of total seats..

If you want me to write a 10 page document on business and the challenges in all the sectors in Nigeria, I would do it, with ease sef.

If and when you interact with foreign CEOs and MDs of businesses operating in Nigeria.. then you'd realize that Nigerians operating businesses in Nigeria are part of the problem affecting the system.

The aviation industry is somehow protected to favour Nigerians running airlines unlike some other like oil and gas.. most of the complains you hear are FX exposure, double-digit loans and whatnot but I tell you that Nigeria is still far better for business owners today judging from global economic trends. There is the free movement of persons and goods within Africa called AfCFTA they are pushing for to connect businesses and investors across Africa. How will they justify their unreasonable air fares then?

Watch the banking sector closely and you'll see the big progress they are making.. banks like GTB, UBA and some others have entered the International scene and are fast expanding to many countries but the ones in aviation are giving reasons to choke Nigerians and think we should all keep quiet and accept it.

I neva see empty seats for airplane since I begin fly ooo, they make mega money!

Archangelgabrie:
The internet is replete and filled with a devilish lie that masturbation does not cause erectile dysfunction. Even though they tell you you can do it in moderation and all that nonsense. Sadly like every addiction u delve into, you go deeper until you are stuck in a zone where help may not be possible. I speak for myself and from a tragic place of pain and regret. Don’t be deceived Masturbation will destroy your manhood/penis. It seems harmless at first but it’s not on the long run. It does more harm than good, infact it does no good at all. My advice is desist from it and abstain. If u must have sex please find a partner or a commercial sex worker. While I dont preach womanizing I’ll rather be a womanizer than not be able to have penetrative sex again. Masturbation renders a man useless Cos if not by a miracle of God your manhood May never become functional again.
When you realize that you can no longer perform sexually by that I mean have penetrative sex the mental agony can make you suicidal and let me tell you, You may not find the strength to speak up cos you were doing it in hiding in the first place. Woe betide you if you don’t have money to even find a partial remedy cos i don’t know of any remedy yet for total revitalization of that kind of dead penis.
That Been said this thread is an advice and if it has to scare you in stopping the act then pls let it scare you. It’s for your own good. To tell you that it’s a demonic gang up, almost 90/95% of articles online tell you it’s okay to masturbate. You don’t really find articles that speak against it. it’s not okay please I beg you either male or female. Though I speak from a male perspective it is not good. So you don’t come to regret it. As a man you never want to be in a place like this, NEVER!!! Only then will you realize how important that private part of your body is to you and your spouse The danger and side effect is far worse than the immediate pleasure that is fleeting.
I may not know who will read this message but I am saving a life/ your life. Desist from Porn and desist from Masturbation. Run if you must. If you must have sex please go for the real thing. With experience you will get better. Let me add that if you are experiencing Premature Ejaculation issues try to fix that one now that your penis can still stand erect and fix it on time and with natural remedy not enhancers and don’t worry about any girl calling you a 2 seconds man for now .. fix your self and have proper sex. Even if u keep failing to leave up to expectations don’t masturbate please I beg you. I cannnot over emphasize it. Premature Ejaculation Maybe an early sign that Erectile dysfunction is knocking at the door. Those people saying Masturbation does not cause ED are either lying to you for monetary gain or luring you into the same predicament they might be in. Trust me anyone continuing in the act their own predicament is on the way because eventually one way or the other you will use up your full data bundle that Masturbation allows. The sad part is it does not announce when it’s coming. When it dawns on you I hope it’s not to late. You will wish you were dead.
Sex is important and the words of a woman can kill you mentally if you cannot satisfy her in the bedroom how much more if your penis cannot stand up again. In order not to find yourself in that situation flee Masturbation now. May God give you the strength and discipline to flee.
Just a concerned guy looking for cure.
Worthy of mentioning is that this is not the case of sugar, blood issues, heart condition, pile, waist pain or any of these ailments, so don’t let all this Agbo sellers milk you… they will not work. Your penis is what is dead. First help yourself mentally then go out and look for a cure. Though I don’t know of any cure yet or if there is.
Remember this is Erectile dysfunction caused by Masturbation.

More grease to your elbow. He that has ears, let him hear!!!

KaceeDcontrol:
Good morning guys
Can we say for sure that the 'Travel Document Ready for Collection' mail means visa is approved or do you need to pick up to confirm?
Logistics and cost of travelling to Lagos twice means it is preferable to pick up passport on the way to making the actual trip. But need to be sure there is an approved visa.

Why didn't you pay for courier service?

Abubanty:
She doesn't have that and wasn't asked. We booked One Way using travelwings booking agency. We did it online. There was 12hrs layover in Egypt. They were checked into hotel, then morning joined connecting flight to LHR.

Please one more question, was her baggage charged while paying for the flight? I'm traveling with just one.
