Gistmedia10:
In a dramatic courtroom scene, actor and singer Tyrese Gibson broke down in tears after a judge ruled to triple his child support payments. The "Fast and Furious" star, who is known for his emotional outbursts, was visibly distraught as the decision was announced. The ruling came after his ex-wife took him to court, arguing that his recent movie roles have significantly increased his earnings, warranting a higher support payment for their child.

In an emotional outburst, Tyrese revealed, "She saw marriage as a business. She got married to me for a few years, divorced, and took 50% of my lifetime savings. All her money and properties were not in her name."

Tyrese also shared how rapper 50 Cent had warned him about the challenges of loving deeply in today's world. "50 Cent told me that if you are someone that loves so deep, then this generation is not for you, but I didn’t listen. When she asked for a divorce and took everything, 50 Cent still didn’t leave me. He offered me a role in his movie 'POWER,' and that’s how I bounced back and started hustling again," Tyrese stated.

Reflecting on the emotional turmoil he experienced, Tyrese expressed the pain many men feel but seldom share. "Sadly, no one cares how you feel as a man, but I told myself that I’ll not act tough. I had to cry. Men need to start speaking up too. The society needs to know that men cry too and get hurt," he emphasized.

Hello Guys,

Please, what is the most reliable and also cost-effective means of sending something like a single electronic Android Tablet to Lagos, Nigeria?
I intend to send it as a gift, door-to-door that doesn't involve the recipient paying any fee.
Thanks for weighing in.

MrsAdenike:
There might be men among them.

You registered today and all what could come into your mind, after that good news was "there could be men among them"!
Some of you guys really need to evaluate your mental health.

ekineme:

, Guy be calming down, I don't support terrorist and terrorist activities, I saw the news yesterday night about the Hezbollah no2 man, seeing the news this morning about Hamas, I thought the OP is not getting his fact right, hence my response, but I have confirmed the authenticity of the news from other news sources.

You caused it, bro. That should have been your immediate reaction. It won't take you long time to verify & confirm before commenting and not vice versa.

Seynex01:


You should have 1 hour free parking, if they can get support with their luggage, which I feel there will be help. Park somewhere close to the airport it could be 10-15 minutes drive to the airport (Wythenshawe) and leave onces they have passed immigration. You will be able to manage the 1 hour free parking.

Thanks for your response 🙏

Dear guys and erudite,

I am picking up my elderly parent at Manchester Airport soonest. I want to find out, please, any advice on the most cost-effective parking options available near the terminals and ways to minimise the parking time (besides live tracking of flight). The cheapest I could see online is an average of £12 per hour at T1/T2 multistorey carpark.
Furthermore, does the airport offer any services to help passengers with baggage collection and trolley pushing to the arrival gate, particularly elderly with mobility limitations?

Any driving situations or penalties to watch out for at the airport or en route? I appreciate any other help you might have. Thanks

Any assistance with this, please?

jebelkhan:
Nineville, did your mum include her bank statement?

Yes and every home- tie documents you can think of.

Childofgrace18:


Oga is not true, you are paying for your mum with hee name nah, no one cares about credit cards, just send the payment documents to her, she will be attended to. My wife used Egypt air few weeks ago and I paid with my credit card.

Thanks for taking the time to respond, for your clarification and for allaying my fears. Cheers buddy.

Hi All, Thanks for all the insightful, FAQs and knowledgeable database you guys created here with your unrelented contributions. I got a 6-month visiting visa for my Mum using the information here. She is a retiree, contributing £1 towards the trip and I fully covered the whole cost with a £2,500 statement of account.

Meanwhile, can someone who has recently flown with Egypt Air clarify if they have this policy, their helpdesk contact form hasn't responded to my enquiry :

''The credit cardholder must be one of the travellers in online booking. If the customer fails to present the card used for purchasing the ticket(s) during check-in time, Egyptair has the right to deny passenger boarding".

That is, a cardholder paying for the online ticket must be one of the travellers in the booking!

justwise:


My question is this.. if you studied a particular subject and applied for jobs with no success what do you do? Go back to school to get more certificate ? Go back to Nigeria to start looking for job? Thinking that you must work in the area you studied is outdated. Education gives you the exposure , the ability to make rational decisions.

Yes this may sound controversial but given the choice I will take health care sponsorship over PSW.

PSW should be avoided if you can, I will take it if that is the only option available.

A just wise & optimistic advice! This is a strong message that conveys resilience, resourcefulness, and optimism. Instead of letting setbacks or obstacles bring you down, with God, positive attitude & strong determination, find a way to overcome them and create something beneficial and enjoyable from the experience.

Note: This is one of the numerous times I do agree with Justwise, otherwise, I simply disregard, no time for debate 😀.

How can I get early dates for practical driving test.
I checked online now for bookings, the date am seeing is march 2024.

Download Testi mobile app and keep monitoring. Closer dates will pop up.

Taal17:


Interestingly enough , this not wanting to be a bad person maybe why some ppl just don't pick up their calls when new immigrants arrive. They just ghost

I think both the rejecter and rejecter need therapy in giving nos and receiving nos.

Emotional blackmail is real.

On a side note...sometimes it's the yes ppl you should be afraid of cos they may sell you 4000pounds pot.

It's distasteful and callowness if one taunts & jests a real-life personal or psychological problems someone posted here.

forkinsonlolo:

i am asking because i know alot of students working more than the limited work hours, and soon we d all apply for psw. I wanted to know how severe the consequence is. I did it twice and i dont know if that would be used against me

Be rest assured you will get your PSW. Meanwhile, try & don't let it exceed the earlier 2.

KingLennon:
He has forgotten that few years ago, a bag of cement was 900 naira





But no be that one concern me sha, who saw the exchange rate between Naira and CFA? . Have you seen how far we have fallen?

So sad & appalling that Benin Republic has a buoyant economy compared to home nation if you consider the very fast pace that the currency loses value. Not long ago we were talking of 1Naira to 3x west africa CFA
Apparently, that's the real-time summary of the whole story.

koonbey:


The person has said it all.

There’s nothing like formality.

I have a couple of friends working in the civil service - highly sensitive roles even, and they are people who came in as students when I did as well so neither citizens nor settled yet.

Apply for anything you see that’s open and you qualify for. No need screening yourself out ab initio.

Thanks for the enlightenment, Koonbey (Kunbi) 😁. This is what we call c'est fini, kosoro, bamagana, ekwula okwu & end of discussion.

dupyshoo:
Only limited civil service roles require British Citizenships. Most roles roles don't and accept commonwealth citizens.

Thanks, Dupyshoo for your prompt response.

Please, others kindly shed more light on this. thanks

Hi Seniors,

to be eligible to work in UK Public Civil Service, must one be a British citizen or hold dual British nationality?
I want to know if Nationals of Commonwealth countries are ACTUALLY employed in the civil service.
I am not disregarding their Civil Service recruitment nationality rules, but sometimes these criteria could be mere formality without any significant sincerity.

Thanks

justwise:


My brother you will be fine, don't let this drag you down. If you are able to carry on supporting your family with little help from her go ahead, When you stopped asking her to support and carry on doing your best she will step in to help.

I pay all the bills in my household, my wife runs the kitchen and do most heavylifting shopping for foodstuff while i pay every other bills including her mobile contract. Sometimes i come home to notice that she has bought stuff for the house or kids i appreciate that but i will not complain if she did not. The reason why i choose to run my home that way is because...before i got married i was paying all those bills without any support and now we married i will keep doing what i have been doing.

Lastly... make an effort to get a sponsorship...you will be fine.

Whao & love this!
This is one of the most pleasant counselling I have ever read from Justwise oh, 😂.

Be careful, what you seek ....... Maybe if you considered married men...... The request could have been minimal.........😂🤣

What A Day!

Took my theory test today.

Guess what! I failed...😃

And no, it wasn't the multiple choice questions (45/50), it was the hazard perception (37/70).

At clip 6, it flagged my clicking pattern. Marks were lost for that. Took caution and simply clicked on the real danger...the result na 37 ooo. My lesson: the exam click pattern is totally different from the 4-in-1 pattern.

I'm really pained😭 cos I messed up, having to queue again for their endless test dates.

Can't remember the last time I failed an exam/test.🤪

No wahala! We go again, this time with a bang!

Try and use clicking methods from @Driving Crawley on youtube and then smash the test.

Hi all,

Has anyone here tried to renew their Nigerian passport in the UK? What's the process like please? I've visited the website several times but can't seem to progress beyond the page where I input the reason for passport renewal. It also navigates to a login page meanwhile I don't see any link for creating an account (which I assume is required before you can log in, in the first place).

Thanks!

I renewed my passport and it took about 2 months before obtaining the PP.
Read this link below, perhaps it could shed light.
