oh that's sad........ i wanted to know about King's since you said you are a King's nursing alumni and how did you go about paying the fees. can admission be deferred? Thank you

I didn't pay any fees. The NHS bursary was still on at the time so I had my entire fees covered by the NHS + we received monthly upkeep allowance.

You can defer your admission depending on your circumstances. just shoot them an email.

You're very right. At the end of the day when you Qualify as a Nurse, they are only going to be looking at your Pin not what University you attended or what grade you graduated with.
I am currently doing my MSc. in Adult Nursing at University of Bedfordshire and there is nothing wrong with the university. It's up to one as a student to put in the hard work to produce good results.

Adiagha, aba die?

IMO STATE: 16 YEARS OLD IGBO GIRL EMERGES YOUNGEST BEST WAEC CANDIDATE 2019

A teenage damsel may have just entered Guinness Book of Records with the most amazing result the West African Examination Council (WAEC) has ever seen.

Ugboaja Chizobam Stephany 16 years old Ezinihitte Mbaise born teenager, a graduating student of Jesuit Memorial College Port Harcourt, has come out impeccably triumphantly at the just concluded West African Senior Schools Certificate Examination (WASSCE), as she scooped a stunning nine Alphas/Distinctions across all the nine subjects she sat for.

Family Writers Press gathered that, the Imo state born academic genius emerged the youngest best WAEC candidate in this history of WAEC, joining a long list of other Igbo geniuses who have dominated the West Africans regional examinations body in over two decades.

The young girl whose brain is inarguably on fire acquired A(s) in subjects ranging from: Further Mathematics, General Mathematics, English Language, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Civic Education, Economics and Data Processing. The teenager told Family Writers Press that she hails from Ezinihitte Mbaise in Imo state and will be eager to meet her state Governor.

I hope you do know that Kings tuition for Nursing is £28K pounds per annum and you get to pay that + the yearly increment every year for the duration of the course (three years for the degree and 2 for PGdip).

I'm an alumnus of the Kings Nursing faculty.

That tuition is exorbitant in my opinion considering nurses remuneration in the UK. I don't know what your long term plans are though.

ednut1:
if na crime dem for take you to jail.

It's cheaper to deport than jail.

ednut1:
nothing if it wasnt obtained through crime. But how many illegal immigrant dey get any tangible thing as most send money home. An illegal immigrant can't be thinking of a mortgage o.

Is illegal immigration not a crime?

Embassy Property.

Embassy properties damaged outside the rmbassy

Rubyventures:
Why UK? Its a crime against the Nigerian consulate by a Nigerian. The police cannot go into a consulate to arrest any one its out of their jurisdiction. Its like going to Nigeria to arrest a criminal. Please correct me if I'm wrong. That's why people are able to take refuge in an embassy.

I thought properties damaged were parked on the street. Except the embassy extends to the street.

Lexusgs430:
By responding, you have divulged your email address + name........

If the person is not ready to divulge such info............

That makes sense now.

Lexusgs430:
When the person you ask to have a private conversation with, is not ready......... Can the person be forced to have a private conversation...........

Why not post it openly and probably get more responses?....

You inform the person privately through the medium he reached you and move on.

Musician born in UK given 14 days to leave the country

Bumi Thomas has been told she is illegal despite being born in Glasgow and spending most of her life in the UK

A musician born in the UK faces being kicked out of her home because of a little-known change to Home Office legislation.

Bumi Thomas was given 14 days to leave after being told she is illegal despite living here most of her life. The rising jazz star grew up thinking she was British, attended university in the UK and has legally worked and paid taxes since graduation.

However because her parents are Nigerian, she now faces deportation and being separated from her family and friends. The situation bears a chilling resemblance to the Windrush scandal, which saw many people deported in error after decades of life in the UK.

Ms Thomas was born in Glasgow in June 1983 to parents who came over from Africa in the early 1970s. In January 1983, Margaret Thatcher’s Tory government changed the British Nationality Act that removed the automatic right of citizenship for children of parents from former colonies.

The singer’s parents should have registered her but were unaware they needed to do so. In a twist of irony, Ms Thomas’ elder sister Kemi was born one year before the Act and has always had legal status.

The musician, 36, believes she is a victim of an increasingly hostile attitude by the Home Office to migrants in the UK. She told the Mail on Sunday: ‘My parents came here at the end of the Windrush era. ‘I had a National Insurance number, I had my birth certificate, I’d got a driving licence, a bank account, I went to college.

‘At no point during that process was there any indication I was doing anything incorrectly.’ Speaking to Metro.co.uk, she continued: ‘I have never had any question in my mind that I’m British and Scottish. ‘And that’s something I’m proud of. But according to a piece of paper, suddenly what I think about myself isn’t valid. It’s an illusion.’

At the age of three-and-a-half, Ms Thomas and her family returned to Nigeria. She came back to the UK as a teenager, thinking she automatically had dual British-Nigerian nationality.

After graduating with a degree in fine arts from Bath Spa University she began to work and moved to London, where she now lives with her sister.

It was only at the age of 25 when she went to apply for her UK passport that she was told she was never registered as British. The Home Office was told she had technically overstayed in an illegal capacity.

Ms Thomas said her case was classed as ‘complex’ and she was told to use human rights legislation rather than immigration laws to fight it. That marked the start of an ‘exhausting and expensive’ decade-long legal battle.

Two weeks ago she received a letter from the Home Office saying her application for permanent residency had been unsuccessful. She was given 14 days to appeal or face detention without notice.

Ms Thomas has since lodged an appeal and is awaiting a court hearing. The musician, who has performed at the Royal Festival Hall and London Palladium, continued: ‘My parents had no idea of the law change.

‘This was in an analogue age, where correspondence was written and there was no social media.’ She added: ‘When I was told I wasn’t British, I was shocked and devastated.

My soul and my spirit were screaming. ‘Nigeria is foreign to me and I am a foreigner there. I’ve been in the UK for 18 years.’ Ms Thomas’ grandfather came to the UK to study medicine and she said her parents were also given a warm welcome as part of the Windrush generation – when people from former colonies came to the UK to rebuild the country after the Second World War.

She said their treatment was in stark contrast to the way the Home Office was now treating her and thousands of others who ‘fall through the cracks of the system.’ She added: ‘There is a stigma attached to being an immigrant these days.

‘At no point did I ever think I was doing anything wrong. ‘When my parents came over they were welcomed but now it is different. There are people who have lived in the UK for 30/40/50 years facing hostility.’

Ms Thomas continued: ‘The Home Office right now has a hostile environment policy, a set of administrative and legislative measures that are designed to make staying in the UK as difficult as possible for people like me.’

The musician should be making her US debut at the Ford Theatre in Los Angeles in October but the immigration issues mean that is now in doubt. She has launched a gofundme page to help towards legal costs, which are already at £7,000 and rising.

Ms Thomas’s lawyer, Fahad Ahmed, said she missed out on automatic citizenship by a matter of months and added: ‘Courts take a less harsh view than the Home Office, and if someone can prove their life is here, the courts will use their discretion.’

The British Nationality Act 1948 gave citizens of British colonies the right to settle in the UK. Since they had the legal right to come to the UK, they never needed nor were given any documents upon entry. In what later became known as the Windrush scandal, many were wrongly detained, denied legal rights or deported in administrative blunders.

The Home Office is set to pay up to £200 million in compensation to people whose lives were damaged by their mistaken classification as illegal immigrants. The Home Office has been contacted by Metro.co.uk about Ms Thomas’ case.

Well, she's not British. The most she can do is apply for discretionary leave to remain which she'll keep extending until she's stayed here legally for 10 years before she can apply for indefinite leave to remain after which she can then apply for citizenship by naturalization.

If her parents didn't take her back to Nigeria when she was 3 and half, she would have qualified for citizenship at the age of 10. Sad.

Because the issue(s) might be best discussed openly.......

The person has his reasons for wanting a private discussion.

Sunday just shut up you lying bastard. Which company? When you are yet to feed well in London . Hahahaha

Listen this clown, i know most people in UK, they are struggling to live well except fraudsters who don't last before they are caught. I know how much most grade jobs are paying for 3rd class UK residents like you. Even bills are high while earnings are not that fantastic.

A resident of UK doesn't have time to sleep on NL like you do. People in UK are working like Jacky, no time for themselves sef, but your office is NL hahahaha


[s][/s]

Bro, I buried my mum a few weeks ago and Obianọ was there. I didn't even give him much attention as I had more important people in attendance. I repeat, Chinonso mụ na gị abụrọ ọgbọ. Go to Isu and ask them how many plots of land I bought in the new development just after Ngozika, I bought almost the entire village. Ask that Okpuno princess that sells land as agent.

BeijinDossier:
Sunny you are a freaking hopeless bastard. I posted it to show you that you are a jobless vagabond in London. Only hopeless and useless vagabonds like you that goes to London and refused to come back. The same London we dey go when we want to go toilet lol

And who is talking about world-class hospital here? It is my choice where i want my wife to give birth and it has nothing to do with my state afterwards the same kids are here with me in Nigeria.

Sunny come back home because you are wasting your time in London. You are not even married even at your old age. Egoiro na London nwokem. Anu mpama lol




[s][/s]

Dude, I repeat, I'm not your mate. I shuttle between Nigeria and London every 2 weeks. Yes my family is based in London for obvious reasons but I have businesses on Nigeria. Just to give you a clue, this is one of my products.

So, whenever you have malaria, tụnyere nwanne gị nwoke biko because even though you behave like a bastard sometimes, you are still a brother.

BeijinDossier:
Sunday Nwangwu, you are a bleeding bastard. I posted that to prove to you that i am a regular visitor to UK and i know how far there. Wig? Lol. I never knew you are even dumber than i thought.

You are a suffering dickhead, you are a vagabond in London. You are jobless hooligan in London, you are not doing any legitimate job, despite the fact that you can still not feed. Yes i am a visitor in UK and that's what i wanted, i can't live their when i know that i make more money living in Nigeria.

Dumb fellow do you know how much it cost to send your wife to US to have a child? You think it is one naira?

Sunday stop wasting away in London, come back home ka anyi kwa gi ife alu. Money dey Nigeria. Dumbo lol




[s][/s]

I do not know who Sunday Nwangwu is to start with, I don't know where you and eggheaders got the name from. If you have relatives who are in London illegally suffering, not everyone is like them. Keep bleeting like a he goat while Obianọ is daily begging me to bring my factory home. Idiot

BeijinDossier:
Nwabobo see my second child born in Florida the following year. Though i have not been to US before but my kids are citizens of America. Abroad no be big deal except to a village idiotic champion like you Hahahaha

Aren't you proving to be an idiot that you are here? You claim abroad is nothing, yet you make effort for your children to be born in USA so as to acquire citizenship. You claim Obianọ has done wonders and Amaku is now works class yet you won't take your wife there to give birth.

It’s either you are a paid hack or a lying bastard. I think you are both.

That is me pretending those are your children's passport as there is no evidence of their surname being remotely related to yours.

BeijinDossier:
Sunday (nwabobo), you are not dealing with a local champion. I am well traveled. This is my UK Visa, it is even multiple visa. My wife already have Canada visa, my two kids were born in US, i can snap their visas and show you vagabond.

I am a regular visitor to London, i know how you guys suffer there even to eat. My guys i met at Essex, i knew how happy they were after buying food for them. Na poor people like you dey refuse to come back when they travel outside Nigeria Hahahaha

Anyi na ata ife here. Lol

Chinonso Dike, any Dickhead can get a visa to the UK. It is what it is, A FUCKING VISIT VISA that gives you no rights other than your fundamental human rights.

You claim your children where born in the US and you can snap their visa and show me. Lol. That shows how stupidly ignorant and obtuse you are. Children born in the US get PASSPORTS not VISAS.

I can wake up any day and decide to travel to almost any country in the world as a Brit but you can't do that your entire fucking life except you want to travel to Cotonou.

And finally, for the visa picture you posted, you should have done a better job concealing the lady's wig, name and date of birth.

Unbiased1:
Lol. What's the difference between houses in Banana Island and those in Awka, Owerri and Enugu? I just sit down dey read wetin you write. Investing in Banana Island is a big waste of money. I have been there twice and the houses there are not different from what you'll get in Achike Udenwa Estate or Ngozika Estate, the cost of land is insane and wasteful and the place is too quite and boring for my liking. Your property in Banana Island can't buy any village and I advice you to sell that waste you have in Banana Island and invest in more open areas of that state.

Your opinion, sounds lik a poor man's opinion and liked by two poor men lacking in exposure. Try gettibg a credit facility from a financial institution with a house in Ngozika Estate or Achike Udenwa Eztate , then you'll know the difference between B and cow leg.
