this is not true. Stop lumping all countries together. The kind of Nigerians in Canada are mostly not same with those in malaysia, cyprus, south africa, uae etc. some Nigerians are doing good in those countries too, while some are doing bad . Russians, north koreas, indians are into scams and crime, why are their people not judged

It's well

Eyegroup:
Hello..greetings all ..please I need help from this family please .. Please who can help Me with connection to get visa to Canada please ... Have try n try two agent that promise me work they scammerd me please who can help me

Connection to get Canadian visa
This guy will be easy to scam o.

Mr ednut just helped you with links up there.

What else do you want ?

ednut1:
you met one guy and you are generalizing??? I have met several Nigerians on the road, in the mall, train, at work etc. none has denied being a Nigerian. Do you know if the guy in question used a carribean passport to enter Canada . Have you been to LinkedIn of recent ,many Nigerians have been promoted to director, manager and senior manager in uk, usa and Canada. You no see that one o. Indians are behind most of the scams in Canada but why dont they use it against them. Most of the people causing wahala for Nigerians abroad travelled illegally and are doing shitty things. Canada carefully selects the kind of immigrants it takes ( minus the asylum guys who crossed over from usa) Most of them are facing their jobs and not causing wahala. U can see the rubbish happening in uae , its because they allowed every tom dick and harry. Make we dey calm down lol

Mr Ednut....

I have met several Nigerians too, this one in particular shock me. I have a friend that experience this before which I was wondering if that is possible.

The guy is a full blood Nigerian.
The thing pained me to the bone marrow, like htf will somebody denied his background.
Meanwhile I asked where in carribbean but stuttering set in immediately, till we move on

To those doing good, they are minority.

We just need to be sincere with what is going on in obodo oyinbo.

I met someone today who clearly denied his nationality... When your accent, looks clearly shows Nigerian.

We met at a wear store in Toronto, we interacted and ask him his background and he denied his nationality straight up and said 'he's from the caribbean, which his actually from Nigeria.
I told him I'm a Nigerian and we exchanged number

Initially I knew this guy is a Nigerian and his whatsapp picture gave me double assurance.

But the issue is why are Nigerians in diaspora denying their origin?

Majority of Nigerian living oversea has messed up and tarnished the issue of Nigeria. This people misused precious opportunities giving to them by the oyinbos.

Now we will be lamenting on the government back home, is the govt the problem here again? People will hardly give you regards here as a Nigerian. Nigerians are known for cheap scams.
The girls will never wanna date you as a Nigerian.

In Italy, landlords will never want to rent you their house once they discover you are a Nigerian.
In dubai, no job for Nigerians, its hard to get one
In SA, they are known for drugs and all sort of rubbish.
Infact all the country in the world won't want to associate once they knew you are a Nigerian, even some African countries

Yet we kept on blaming the government.

Even the ones back home has spoiled the country image internationally.
Calling her Zoo and all sort.

Are Nigerians abroad doing any better? NO

These people need to change their ways.
It's not few Nigerians, but Majority.

Blurpy:
Bro try another country!
It pains me to see you guys suffering for SA visas where graduate and work permit isn’t guaranteed. SA doesn’t want Nigerians anymore, all these are tactics. I wish I can share some chats here . Common there are other countries with better prospects, go on twitter , follow oludayo sokunbi and get updates. Stop wasting precious time!!

And do you think they will listen to you.

Not only SA don't want Nigerians.

I think there's something really wrong with Nigerians in diaspora.

Most of these countries don't really have regards for Nigerians. Even in the west.
This is not a matter of bad government.

Those diasporans need to be checked. They have messed things up for the upcoming.

ednut1:
better to go on dating apps ( hinge and bumble) . If you are a new comer till you get a good paying job most Nigerian babes wont even talk to you hahahaha

Those ones don't date without benefit

Myki007:
Good evening all,pls I want to find out from those who recently travelled to Canada from last month if you were asked to do PCR testing, because the IRCC website states that those who are fully vaccinated doesn't need PCR testing.
Please urgent response, my departure date is close.thanks

For fully vaccinated, PCR test is not required.
Airline will only ask for your Covid vaccination card

ariesbull:
I detest trolls and it seems that you guys are envying these guys driving Benz... Allow them to fűćkị́ng talk about their rides

Why is it that you guys will always bring either comparison or bring which one is older... This is madness

Allow us to read and learn, you don't know what other people are learning.... If you dolt drive a Benz or intending owning one... Please sir STFU...

Its a new month please and let's learn to respect people's choices

Everybody actually wants to..... but the problem is the affordability and maintenance

Halyshia:
Hello house, so I sent my passport yesterday to abuja tho I did my biometrics in Lagos
I paid 7430 transmission fee
Today when I tracked it, it’s saying delivery not accepted, called DHL and I was told a content is missing
Can it be that I have to pay more than 7430 for the transmission fee?

Transmission fee is 9,410.

pixzy:
Good morning beautiful people .

Please I have a question ?
if you check-in your bags, is it going to your final destination or I have to pick them up and recheck in ?

E.g I’m leave from PHC > Frankfurt > Calgary > Edmonton.

Do I have to recheck my bags at Frankfurt and Calgary?

Once your check in at PHC, your luggages will be waiting for you at your final destination 'Edmonton'

adigunomomama:
Been a while guys, reading through and following the thread, I decided to drop something for you guys today

Lol, thou it’s not funny but you guys should take it easy with our CG Lagos

For now the consulate is facing backlogs which made them to stopped receiving visa applications on Fridays

The issue with delay in your visa applications or response after interview and the normal processing time is due to the backlogs due to some diplomatic reason I can’t share some stuff here about what is happening in the consulate presently because Brasil is one of the easiest visa to get if your docs are intact and it is straightforward to apply

Oga puff quick one, abeg chill lol

The lady that went to collect her passport and said she was preggy, Ma’am you just Kobalise the rest of the ladies/women applications with them because Brasil nah one way direction dem dey reason

You can withdraw your passport anything you want without mentioning that but know this, withdrawing your passport is automatically denial to your application so I will advice you send a mail and state the reason why you are taking your passport (which is delay in their response, which is normal) because of your future application

if you want to apply now especially if you are preggy I will advice you to wait till 2nd week of next month by that time things will have been better.

A bonus info for you guys, some visas will be out next week so If you have been waiting luckily your application might be among

I forget to add this, YES the CG are seeing all of this, be careful of what you share here

I’m out

CG in the house.....

Applicants in the house should heed to these advice.....

If you don't get it, forget it

Creativeowos:

Nickoko:

Thanks.

Both phones won't work in Canada o.

Are there job opportunities there too?
Opportunities and means of livelihood is the brain behind any relocations.

quote author=Rubyventures post=112083208]

Rwanda is one of the best African countries to live in at the moment, its clean peaceful and has good governance with loads of infrastructure. You will be amazed at the number of foreigners living there.

Job opportunities no dey rwanda o
But there are business opportunities

profemebee:
i have seen a lot of blacks so quick to pull out the race card.. sometimes, one has to remove that psychological race card mentality to every scenario and thing in one's life..

Seen it in many ways..

One went to the store with a hoodie, and a security guard (black sometimes too) followed him around... he quickly pulled the race card

One spoke to a lady, and she didn't reply him; He told me she was acting racist.. only for her friend to come in speaking french.. apparently she was French and didn't speak English.. if her friend didn't come into the building, he would have left thinking she was racist

I won't be surprised if the person in the earlier story posted about visa being canceled based on not knowing what event he/she came for says it was due to racism...

Very very poor mentality.. Racism exists, Yes, but don't let it influence everything you experience..

The 'funniest' nigerians are the tribalistic ones that curse out on racism.. Tribalism is even worse.. .same skin.. same nationality.. same national flag.. yet you don't want to associate with them.. smh

Fact......

Canadaboy3:

TimD:
Idlove Restaurant and Bar, The Suya spot and a few others.

Damn, their suya make sense die

Esomimi:
Ok...sorry jare.

We applied for a Visitors visa for my MIL on February 11th.
February 21- Request for biometrics
March 3rd - Biometrics submitted at vfs Lagos
April 8 - Request for passport

The entire journey took about 6-8weeks and there was no back and forth with IRCC (Thank God for that).

So I just want to know if she needs to add a passport photograph to the documents she is sending. I read the letter from IRCC but there was nothing like that. But I don't want VFS to reason our matter, that's why I'm asking.

No passport photograph is not part of the requirements

Bimsebony:
Thank you so much. She submitted at DHL.

Please I have another question. Someone called my mum from VFS office, Mr Festus. and sent my mum this message.

kindly go to sterling Bank or transfer online the sum of #9410 per person for passport transmission fee to acct number 0065165839, acct name: Canada VFS FEE ACCOUNT, forward the payment details to canadang@vfshelpline.com

Please can anyone that is legit. Is my mum suppose to pay another transmission fee again? This is a renewal visa. She did Biometrics in 2019 and it is still valid. Hope to hear from anyone soon. Thanks

Yes she will pay the transmission fee, without it, her passport won't be sent to the decision making centre

aminlove:
Thank you! She actually did her biometrics in Lagos. Or do we have more than one Canada Visa Centre in lagos?

And no we can't find the biometric receipt, been long.

Transmission fee payment is mandatory for her, she's even lucky someone contact her from the VFS, her biometric capturing was not done for this visa application right?
Pay the fees ASAP.

Vfs normally returned this kind of parcel without sending it to the decision making centre

Jessica50:
please I need help, will my dollar MasterCard work in Canada, I will be arriving in Canada next week

Yes sure

Felicity001:
You know that thing with Nigerians once a manufacturer produces one bad product every others that come afterwards is rubbish to them. Many Nigerians still have that wrong notion that Mercedes Benz consumes fuel, it's a car for only the rich... Same way they see every Honda cars as the EOD that usually have dislocation of of legs.

An average Nigerian is still an illiterate.

Off the mic

Dem plenty for here

Nadnad:

Good morning wonderful family.
Please, I need to ask; does anyone have an idea on how to apply to schools in Canada using sports background?
My sister is a footballer but she already studies in a university in Nigeria. She is considering moving to Canada since there are better opportunities there. Is there a way she can apply using her football background since her academic background is not so strong?

Thank you very much.

Canadians don't have regards for a footballer..

Europe is the best choice for your sister

Oggg:
