Hi Oluayebenz, Thank you very much for your response,
Honestly we haven't travel before and I was thinking on Vacation on a visit visa or what can you suggest . Please I need an advice also I think if we have 30m fund that would be sufficient ....Kindly guide us on this ..
Thank you

Canada is not about big account balance.

You cannot just wake up one day and apply for a Canadian tourist visa for a family of 6 without prior plenty travel histories.
It doesn't work that way, it's very rare to obtain canada visa without travel history.

Even if you want to try, apply alone first and wait for the outcome, make sure you submit all necessary documents, assets, business and good funds

Ebbayzuma:
Hi Cretin,

Please anyone with assistance and guide on how to get it down perfectly.

Family of 6 on vacation on what purpose?
To canada?

I hope you guys have plenty travel histories and plenty fund?

cretin:
so, i have been researching on tourist spots in canada, all am seeing is niagara falls and canadian rockies mountain, nothing else that spectacular. pls those that applied for tourist visa, how did you do this, when i did my uk and usa visa, i could easily get tourist spots..then also am wondering cos of the weather, if i should limit my visit to summer months, if the visa officers wont wonder what an african tourist is coming to do in canada during winter

Canada is not a tourist country....

There's absolutely nothing to see there.

You need to have a very strong application to be issued a tourist visa.
Visiting is better

Gotocourt:
Obviously single mother

Definitely

No doubt about that

Doyinlola:
Hi everyone. Please, as someone traveling to Canada for the first time on a visitor visa, what documents do I need to bring, aside from my passport with the visa stamp? Also if which airline is the best if im going on a budget? Thank you for your response 🙏

Cash
Hotel reservation/Invitation letter
Your boldness

Lufthansa
Air France

Askboutme:
Who said Canada doesn’t require it? Canada visa applications require supporting documents showing your travel plans, including a flight itinerary and proof of accommodation. That’s exactly what this platform provides a genuine, verifiable flight reservation that the embassy can verify directly on the airline’s website and verify with the hotel you plan to stay.. It’s not a fake or dummy ticket.

Please explain how 500M can pay 75M a Year in TB.

You're right.. dollar show me pepper, bought above 1800, still holding for 2years now, waiting to see if 2027 election will push it up a little bit, if not, I'll still sell. I have held for too long.

You better count your loses

Naira will continue to get better with all the things in place now, though it may takes time.

truthbetold22:
I do not think you are painting a fair picture. Government securities over the last 10 years have paid 12-22% on average yearly. While it hasn’t exactly beat inflation, it has worked better than keeping your money idle. Saving in usd has its disadvantages too which include the fact that your local currency can also become stronger. A example is those who bought dollar at 1800 Naira believing it was going to 3,000 Naira. Dollar is currently 1364 and dropping today so what say you? Dollar backed investments can also ruin you. People loose on the us stock exchange daily. People take large financial hits on the foreign market that they never recover from too.

If you got substantial funds in treasury bills, you wouldn’t say you lost 100% of your value, that is an exaggeration. I have saved in treasury bills in the last 13 years and while i agree that it doesn’t always beat inflation, it also doesn’t loose 100% value that fast. You live in Naira, you earn in Naira, you spend in Naira. There will always be inflation, you just try to beat it.

Every investment has its perks and disadvantages. People have real estate they have been trying to sell for years with all the attendant issues of bad infrastructure and bad tenants and poor liquidity. But to each his own. Let’s create a balanced analysis.

People who have 500 million in treasury bills currently make 75 million a year which is more than enough to take care of even a large family. The issue with treasury bills is that you need to put in a large Amount of money to live off its dividends.

Exactly

I always tell people, dollar hoarding is a very bad idea in this current nigeria.

I tried that 2 years ago omo I cried, never again

Rumors is easily spread in Nigeria o.
Nawa o

Emmamay10:
Surprisingly, people from China are also looking for escape route too.

I keep wondering

Ugmama:
Save up in foreign currency or pile up money in treasury bills long term? Which would you go for ?

Treasury bill

Hoarding foreign currency is no go area with that current rate

UncleJudax:
A physical branch visit may be required. Email or call them.

Good luck

No necessary
For GTB thou, I'm very sure of that

Odunharry:
Rate depends on the tenure if it's done on the app.
360-22%
270-20%
180-19%
90-18% etc
all interest at maturity. Bear in mind there are option for upfront interest also below.

360-18.36%
270-17.44%
180-17.31%
90-17.16%

Please is Renmoney secure like fg treasury bill?

iyaoge24:
Please help me out with this situation.
My International Passport expires in 2036. My Bio metrics expires in 2033.
But IRCC stamped 6 months Visa on my Passport.
Can this be an Administrative issue or they are assuming I am going for the World cup.
But my Application carries nothing about going for World Cup. I stated clearly I am going to visit my family who are Canadian citizens.
Please advise what I should do next.
I raised a web form today to inquire why I was given a 6 months visa. I hope they answer me.

No Administrative issue.

And webform won't help either.

There is nothing you can do than to reapply after the current visa expired.

I assume this is your first Canadian visa?

Confirm

We need to be more productive.

Everything shouldn't be about importation

Kingson28:
If immigrants from other countries have any self-respect left in them they should be leaving South Africa in droves by now. Your host country citizens say they don't want you staying in their country anymore. If you have sense of shame and self dignity you should leave and return to your home country.

Exactly

Keep demanding more money

Even if govt pay 1m per month, inflation that will follow won't allow 1m to be enough for 2 weeks.

Instead of this fools to demand for better governance, better economic, better purchasing power..... they are demanding for more money

Another option....

Bring a leader like Jim 'North Korea president


You see ehn, media is one of the major problem we have in this country

marvel2011:
This has been my question since, I kept asking myself. If you ask me what Nigeria really need now, is to have peace, I would say it begins when we stop waiting for "them" and start looking at what "we" can do.
It's easy to blame politicians, and many of them deserve criticism. But peace is not built only in government offices in Abuja. It is built in our homes, churches, mosques, schools, markets, offices, and on social media.
When we choose honesty instead of cutting corners, peace grows.
When we refuse to spread rumours or fake news because it favours our tribe, religion, or political party, peace grows.
When a Christian respects a Muslim neighbour and a Muslim respects a Christian neighbour, peace grows.
When leaders put service above personal gain, peace grows.
When young people have jobs and hope for the future, peace grows.
One thing I have noticed about Nigerians is that, despite our challenges, we are naturally warm-hearted people. A traveller can arrive in a strange town and still find someone willing to help. We laugh together, celebrate together, and often stand together in difficult times. That spirit is one of our greatest strengths.
The truth is that peace is not merely the absence of war. Peace is when a father can provide for his family with dignity. It is when a young graduate believes hard work will be rewarded. It is when people can worship freely without fear. It is when justice is available to both the rich and the poor.
As people of faith, we should also pray for Nigeria. But prayer should move us to action. A person cannot pray for peace in the morning and then sow hatred in the afternoon.
Nigeria may have many problems, but she is still a nation blessed with resilient people, rich cultures, and enormous potential. If more Nigerians choose integrity over corruption, unity over division, and service over selfishness, the Nigeria we dream about will gradually become the Nigeria we live in.
Peace begins with one person, then a family, then a community, and eventually a nation. The question is not only, "How can Nigeria have peace?" but also, "What can I do today to make Nigeria a little more peaceful than it was yesterday?" 🇳🇬❤️

First thing first

Government should ban religion, expecially those using loud speaker to disturb the neighbourhood, those ones that block the road to pray, anything religion should be under control.

Secondly,,,, state of origin should be abolished.

If both up there isn't possible then Government should brake Nigeria into 4 or 5 pieces.

Aside that? Nothing will work, if you like bring Moses in the bible

Una Just too funny in this country

dominique:
I didn't read the entire story, the hotel part got me so angry that I couldn't continue anymore.

Are you sure you lodged in a standard hotel or seedy motel? Standard hotels have air-conditioned rooms and they hardly ever have to open their windows for mosquitoes to gain access. How can you lodge your son who has zero protection from malaria parasites into a hotel were mosquitoes were feasting on him? Didn't you read the reviews of the hotel before lodging? You're more irresponsible than Nigerian politicians and government officials. Hope you've packed your bags and returned to your paradise abroad.

Exactly what I was saying.

Booked a very cheap hotel and want standard service

You came to enjoy your time in Nigeria but end up booking a cheap hotel.

There are many beautiful hotels in very nice environment, zero mosquito and 24hrspower supply

Dangote is a business man. Don't expect him to please you and displease himself

Nigerian govt should work more on bringing down the dollar rate.
That's the only thing that can help at this time

We as a Nation lead by this team have weigh our options too like the FPI .
1
NNPC rackets has come to and end with the executive order all PSC income goes to FAAC
This are mainly USD inflows.
2 . Tax reforms increasing tax payer and under payment.
3. Healthy USD reserve of 50 bn USD while any further USD income can be used to Manage liquidity .
4 return of 150k USD to BDC in the interim ot Market rate to remove distortion tendencies and speculation
5. Increase in crude production ( 1.5m) with more well been drill 20 bn USD by Exxon
6. Printing of Naira in the name of ways and means and other interventions by CBN that lead to free naira in hand of crook whom bought USD at any amount.

7 . 800 m USD saved from 40m litres produced by Dangote refinery.Bua , Waltesmith and azekel coming on
8 Reduce Japa to UK ( 500m USD saved )
9 . Reduced import of Tokunbo car , cloth etc due to high exchange

10 . Exports income from urea , cocoa, ginger ,zobo etc balance of trade in favor of Nigeria

NB don't trust 100 percent the Nigeria economy and leaders election is coming they can do any thing to make it look good temporary.
