Mad immigration officials.

Even when you come back, the way they treat foreigners is quite different from the way they treat citizens.

Corruption at all quarters.

You can imagine. Even in your country. I have hard countless stories on this harassment by these so called armed robbers especially fron first time travellers. Some even parted with as much as 500 dollars since they lack esperience as were scared they could miss thier flight.

I have determined to leave for the Airport port 5 hours before departure time. So that we can have ample time to drag all dragables.I still looking for a very technical way of handling them.

Predstan:


Hold 3k in naira. Make sure you are there 2hours before Boarding commence. They surely will find a way to create trouble with you. Just stand there and let them know you don’t have money when they request from you. At the long Run when you see that it’s 1hour or some minutes before Boarding. Offer them 2k in naira. They will outrightly reject it. Just tell dem that’s all you have to part way with. They will accept it and if they don’t just add 1k and they will let you go


That’s how Bad the country is

Thanks boss.

Hello House.

while doing an extensive study on visa application, I stumbled on a relevant site that I though will be helpful. www.immihelp.com. check it out guys and thank me later.

This document will give you a detailed idea of what to expect at the visa interview and how to prepare for it. This document is composed assuming that the applicants are parents or parents-in-law of persons already in the U.S.
The visa interview has personal and consequently unpredictable factors involved in whether your visa application gets accepted or rejected.
Consular officers would really like to see that applicants are honest, stay for the authorized duration and come back promptly after that. They would not want anyone to stay illegally in the U.S. Even though the U.S. is a country of immigrants, it does not mean that anyone can enter the country for any reason.
Many people don't know the basic rules. Many people are not aware of the penalties for breaking the rules. If you get a business visa, it does not mean you can go to the USA and start your business over there. If you get a 10 year multiple entry visa, it does not mean that you can stay in the USA for 10 years. A 10 year multiple entry visa means you can go to the U.S. anytime within next 10 years. For each visit, your actual stay will be determined by the date stamped in the I-94 form at the port of entry. It is usually 6 months. You can extend your stay up to another 6 months.
Tips
1. Wear formal clothes as if for a formal business meeting. The interviewing officer will always be an American (the interpreter if required may be local). If possible the man should wear a tie. Americans always appreciate formal attire, so they will not find you over-dressed if you wear a tie.
2. Arrive early. You don't want to miss your interview just because you got stuck in traffic.
3. Do not get nervous. Be confident. You will be more confident if you have prepared thoroughly. Smile when you meet the visa officer for the first time. Don't show signs of nervousness such as flickering of eyes, trembling of fingers as that could go against you. Look into the eyes of the officer while speaking.
4. Both candidates should greet the officer with a smile and a "good morning", as soon as you enter the interview booth.
5. Both candidates should have a confident posture and look at the interviewing officer straight in the eyes throughout the interview.
6. Be confident in your answers, whatever you say. Make short, clear, to-the-point replies, in a loud and clear voice. Do not tell anything that is irrelevant or not asked. By mistake, you may give some unnecessary information that may lead to your rejection.
7. Be polite, do not argue and do not ask unnecessary or unrelated questions. Do not unnecessarily elaborate your responses as this may not work in your favor.
8. Demonstrate respect in your language even if you don't feel this is being reciprocated.
9. Often times you might not understand what the interviewing officer is saying because of his/her American accent and/or the microphone system. If you do not understand one of their sentences do not feel afraid to say, 'beg your pardon; I did not understand you.' If he/she repeats the question and you still do not understand, that is not a problem, do not panic. Calmly and confidently say, sorry sir/madam. I still did not understand you. Could you kindly repeat what you said?
10. If you know English, it is preferable to have the interview in the English so that you and consular officer can understand the each other. Interpreters mess up sometimes.
11. Consular officers are very smart in their profession. They can figure out true intentions of applicants most of the times because of their training and experience. Some of them also may know regional languages of India.
12. Consular officers are fond of asking 'What if...' type questions
Some examples are
What would you do if you won jackpot in a Las Vegas casino?
What if someone offers you a job in the U.S. at a very high salary?
What if someone offers you a partnership in his business?
What if some beautiful woman proposes to you for marriage?
Consular officers may ask such questions to scrutinize the applicants. Don't give an answer immediately without thinking through it. If the officer suspects that your intention may be to stay in the U.S. and/or work there, your visa may be rejected.
If you give answers such as I will buy a house in the U.S. and stay there after winning the jackpot, I will accept the job offer or partnership and start working or get married to the beautiful U.S. citizen girl and settle there, your visa will be rejected. When you are applying for a tourist visa, you are just supposed to tour the country and not just stay in the U.S. forever because of one or another reason.
13. Be honest during the interview and while preparing the documents. The consular officer is not your enemy and he is just doing his duty.
14. For every question asked, when you are saying your answer, you should be prepared to simultaneously put forth a document supporting your answer, and refer to the document in your answer.
E.g. If the interviewer asks you what are your ties in India, for which you will return to India after your visit, and if one of the components for your answer is that our only grandchild is in India, you should simultaneously present photographs of your grandchild and your family to the interviewer to strengthen your answer.
15. The purpose of the tour should be vacationing, visiting friends/family or any other allowed activities .
16. Always reply with correct answers. All data while appying for the visa and details of the answers given in your interview are computerized and maintained. If your visa is rejected once, you can't be changing your details the next time you go for an interview.
17. Your appearance should convey who you are. If you are a student, you should look like a student. If you are an executive, you should look like an executive. Your body language should convey friendliness, but also that you are serious about your goal.
18. Mind your manners and refrain from unnecessary body movement.
Consular Officer Didn't Look at Documents
Many people complain that the visa officer did not even ask any questions nor looked at any documents and rejected their application which is not fair at all. It is not like that in reality. Visa officers are experts in their profession and they are appointed in consulates in foreign countries after extensive training. Due to their vast experience, visa officers, many times, can figure out true intentions of applicants just by looking at them. They can even figure out whether information provided in the application and/or documents may be true or fake. They don't need to talk to applicants in many cases. You may be surprised to know what things they may know, such as the value of property in a given area, income/income tax ratios, and many other things.
Miscellaneous Situations
In rare cases, the interviewing officer might say that I can grant a visa to only one of you two. Be prepared for this situation. Ideally both of you will like to travel to the U.S. together, or both of you would like to stay back in India together. While one of you doesn't want to travel alone to the U.S., you might as well take a visa for one person. It is better than having both of your visas rejected. This way at least it will be easy for one of you two to get a visa if/when you apply next time. Before going to the consulate decide which one of you should get the visa if this situation occurs, and when the officer asks this question, confidently say "in that case you can give a visa to her", or "you can give a visa to me". Be prepared to give a good reason for the choice made between you two, if the officer asks about it.

Hello House.

this is a story of success which has many friend while failure which is an orphan. America is the Success while Nigeria is a failure. To have done this publicly, she has completely given up on Nigeria. what a pity..

you are not ready to start making babies ? is this a collaborative decision or you forced it on your wife? if collaborative, What nonsense!!!

you caused it big time .. What sort of economic condition are you facing that is so pathetic for you not to be able to take care of one baby for now. I guess you are a baby papa...

you need to have double shot her after marriage so that she can get busy with pregnancy and after putting to bed, start child care. This will engage her and deter her from seeing any side hubby.

truth be told, you messed up on the issue. you acts too fast... You acted before thinking which may later burn your finger. I have seen a dew reasonable advice in this thread. follow that which asked you to apologize to your wife and attache your reason for accusing her to the fact that you saw some shitty messages on the phone .. That was wat actually sprung you action. Play along and look for in deal time to secretly do a paternity test. the result will fully harm.

An armed robber identified simply as wee wee was shot dead after being nabbed during operation. According to reports, the Police arrested the only female robber among the six man gang as four other gang members fled.

The female criminal was identified by the Imo State commissioner of police, Chris Ezike, as Comfort Okon, 28 years from Akwa Ibom state.

The incident happened at the 7up depot in Orlu, Imo state.

According to the CP , one AK 47 rifle , a motorcycle and the sum of N193,980 were recovered from the gunmen.

Residents raised the alarm which led to an immediate response by the police. In an attempt to overpower the policemen, the hoodlums engaged them in a shootout . While one of them died , the only female robber among the gang was arrested while the other four are still at large .

sweerychick:
Good evening viewers! i have this issue has been bothering me, and i dont know if i can cope with it anymore particularly now we are making plans to settle down after my NYSC.

My man is too attached to his mum almost like an addiction. at first i was cool with it because his dad is late and i like guys that are close to their mums, but my man own is creepy and freaking me out. he calls his mum almost every hour, morning, afternoon, evening and even midnight calls.

One day his mum complained of headache, he almost left his office just to buy his mum drugs despite his mum telling him it's not serious, when i tried confronting him about this he told me that his mum is his soul and if his mum dies he would die along with her too, with all seriousness he told me this.

I've been very uncomfortable since that statement from him and it's making me have a rethink whether i can cope with him as a spouse.. please advice me..

I am glad he made that statement that he can't so without his mum... that is final I I believe you can read it carefully. Be informed that his mum will contribute significantly to decision you make in your home.. thank God he is not deceptive. He has shown you the kind of person he is. whether addicted or mummy's boy, his mum will inputs will matter in decision you make.

what is important now is for you to understand what matters to you. Now it is a thing of opportunity cost. of he possesses what you can't afford to miss in a man, go ahead and hope for the best in the relationship. But if your complain is what matters to you, then back out period! after all you are not an tree.

this trait is most common in last born simply because they it is believed that mothers devote much time to care for them than any other children. Hence, cordial relationship is built.

NLandIsHypocrit:
These a blatant and ill-concocted lies, I watched the video and it was obvious the man was a lone armed security on duty, if bullets does not penetrate into the robbers, why did the one at the back seat retreated when bullets was hitting his direction? And he was the same person who followed the gallant officer after he took off and did not make more than five steps forward and went back to the car because he never cross the the coverage of the cam

era. The Zenith Bank and the police has the 97% blame in his death and that's why they're now coming up shamelessly with white lies to cover up their unprofessional misconduct. Few seconds to the arrival of the robbers, there was a man who walked out from that security room and walked towards the entrance gate and stood by, I'm a strong advocate that the man should be apprehended for interrogation, his movement was 90% suspicious.

RIP Gallant hero.

seriously you spoke my mind.. the guy in White shirt should be questioned massively.. seriously speaking, our security system lack intelligent which is more of preventive than reactionary.

Looking at the footage carefully, you will agree with me that the armed robbers were even ahead of their target. They had to reverse when they realised that their target had gone into the bank.. imagine the mumu gate man called security, he opened the gate without exhibiting any sense of security.

the security post is foolishly constructed. there is no emergency exit. that was why the iboko guy was killed.

moral
we need to do learn how to do things the right way in this country. It is a standard that there should be an emergency exit in any facility.. if that was possibly, I am very sure those guys killer may still be alive today. they would have retreated through that exit.

you killed it, or they killed it? I wonder why you can't afford a closer shot

I swear, i can't even afford to continue watching the dehumanising treatment on such little girl. Really, the OP is fool, a big Fool indeed. you have got a huge evidence to pull a trigger. Even if I don't have a step, I will surely get one for this reason. I will gun the culprit and confirm when I dead and report myself.. you know the state of out justice system and you still fell for it.

I am not sure you are also mentally stable. imagine !!!!

some women are just too evil. I had such experience when I visited a friend to pass the note. My friend's wife had this young and pretty house help but the wife us just a bulk. I suspected she just wanted to impress me. Before we slept, it gbo gbo on the house help head by the wife. while sleeping, the same. I promised not to get myself involved but I couldn't just stake it anymore. I had to call my friends attention to address the situation.
