Travel / Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We're Listening Pt. 3 by OneGuyLikeDat: 2:15am On Jul 19, 2019
Hello,

My sister is scheduled for a visa interview 1 week after her wedding. She will not have gotten all the necessary documents for change of name and her passport will still have her maiden name. I believe being married may improve her chances of being approved as this shows her closer ties to Nigeria. Should she come with her old passport and come with her supporting marriage documents or better for her to reschedule till when she gets her passport renewed with the new last name?

Also, in the DS160 form, I indicated I will be the sponsor. What supporting documents do I need to give her to take along; my paystub, account statement etc? I am a US permanent resident residing in the US.

Thanks.

Politics / Re: Reno Omokri:Mandela & the Desperation of the Nigerian Opposition Linked Media by OneGuyLikeDat: 4:01pm On Dec 11, 2013
in as much as I agree with some things reno said I have a question for him, what are the measures alexa.com uses in its rating? content or popularity? popularity is not tantamount to authenticity of contents. most Nigerian youths don't care if anything is happening in d political sector, they care more about Kim Kardashian 's dog than GEJ looting N8trillion...
an observation I made on nairaland is we're too tribalistic most especially the igbos looking for every opportunity to spew their hatred at the yorubas. you should realise this won't move you forward, it only embitters your hearts cuz yorubas will always be smarter...gracias
Politics / Re: What Atiku And The 7 Governors Did Not Know. by OneGuyLikeDat: 4:10am On Sep 02, 2013
I looool at this analysis, probably one of the weakest I've seen so far.
SW will never vote massively for GEJ, they voted for him in the last election because they thought he was "different" which he has proven not to be. They will prefer to pitch their tent under anybody APC drops because APC is in control and covering their faces with infrastructural development in the region.

SS and SE are going GEJ's way but with a formidable VP from APC, there can be a block vote from their.

The only thing that can stop a northerner from winning is if both PDM and APC present formidable northern candidates, that will divide north's vote. Both NE and NW will not vote for GEJ, just the same reason SS and SE will vote for GEJ.

so with a better analysis, SW+NE+NW go APC(or a northern candidate's way) while SS +SE+part of NC go GEJ's way. Where do you have the most population? NW and SW, now you see that what GEJ must do is ensure two formidable northern candidates emerge or else, its back to Otuoke.

Politics / Re: Rivers State Assembly Fracas.. Real Story Unfold by OneGuyLikeDat: 6:39pm On Aug 06, 2013
Maxymilliano:

This part of the story is true, that's why Bipi keeps insisting that anybody that is not ok with the alleged impeachment should go to court but unfortunately for the pro Amaechi's faction, they knew it'll be a wasted effort considering the irrefutable documented evidence of names and signatures of those present at the impeachment proceedings.

Anybody interested in the truth should prevail on Amaechi and his co-travelers to go to court and challenge the alleged impeachment. Then and only then will the truth be made manifest, all the half talks about 5 against 27 is total crap!

Was there ever any impeachment? :s it was just a meeting of 5 house members where they chose their "caucus" leader i.e Bipi. That's not called impeachment so no need to go to court

Politics / Re: APC Accuses Gov. Peter Obi Of Playing Politics With Nigeria’s Unity by OneGuyLikeDat: 11:36pm On Aug 04, 2013
backtosender: some people should go and check the meaning of host before you start explaining,you can not say that yorubas are hosting igbos if you truly understand the Nigerian constitution,right of abode to every citizen of Nigeria,there are many taxi drivers of yoruba origin in Port Harcourt and no body disturbs them because they have that right of abode like any other Nigerian living within the country and outside there own state,you guys want to create another abandon properties but that will never happen,the pay taxes and as such must reap the benefit of there taxes in Lagos,If there taxes are good for fashola,there stay in lagos should be accepted by fashola,one more thing,If fashola can pay back all the money Igbos invested in properties in Lagos,then Igbos can happily live and live Nigeria entirely since fashola can no more obey the constitution,he said that the right of abode is not absolute when it comes to Igbos.there will always be tomorrow,Awolowo gave all the igbos 20 pounds after the war,igbos overcame that and we are still standing and more prosperous.Ghana is another country and igbos,yorubas and others must obey that country laws,yoruba men beheaded a British man in the broad day light,did Britain ask all Nigerians living in London to go because of what that yoruba boys did,some analysis infested with tribal sentiment.

Read what you wrote again and please rate yourself if you spoke sensibly. So because there are so many Nigerians in UK now, Nigerians can claim to own UK? U guys are too tribalistic and dumb for my liking. Are you deaf or blind to the explanations? What's the justification that anybody died since your governor lied about the figure? What's the proof that they were dropped at 3am? Oh! What d lying bigoted idiot called Obi sed? Na na na, u guys should behave like educated and reasonable lots and you'll be treated as one.

Don't mind soyinka,if it were to be another person that introduced cultism into nigeria,soyinka would even have written a novel about it.

People like you don't read and be knowledgeable before commenting. Go to your dictionary and check the meaning of fraternity. Check if "secret cult" and fraternity are the same. And to what purpose did Soyinka bring it? Was it a secret and violent fraternity or open and non-violent? Be educated, it helps u beta in ur judgement. Ciao

Shut up! Soyinka has descended so low. Coward trading words wit a woman.

He has been doing this since colonial era. Same way he spoke for independence and he has always been speaking. If you don't know, update yourself with history. He cannot descend low, he's gotten to a height he can never fall again. You heard?!

chadef: These figurative speach sound like that of a bricklayer trying to prove how educated he is. I think soyinka shud stay off polictic and stop being sentimental because ameachi is his personal friend.

Soyinka has been talking about politics long long before you were born. He stood his ground during the military regime too so my friend, u should warn your hippopotamus to respect elders.
Politics / Re: Rotimi Amaechi Has Been Suspended From PDP by OneGuyLikeDat: 8:12pm On May 27, 2013
Smooyis: Tambuwa/Okorocha or Donald Duke is it. Buhari and Tinubu should just stay at the background. Then we can hav a formidable opposition to GEJ and non performing PDP that has led Nigeria for such a long time without nothing to show for it.

Not sure if SS can be divided by any body, they'll prefer to be the president than the VP. So Duke is not feasible. I'm expect'n Okorocha or Ngige to be put forward tho just to frustrate SE votes because I doubt if they can win the SE for APC.

brown3: Mr. Man. U did this calculation 2007 election, ur calculation falied, u did the same calculatinn 2011 election the same result, i dont think the result will be diferent come 2015.

Oh! For real? What will GEJ sell to SW now? He has no shoes? He's bringing fresh air? He's a saint? Maybe something u can help me out with.

The north can never support GEJ, take a look at the last election to confirm.

Unfortunately for GEJ he does not have a hold of all his party governors. Some northern govs want a northerner as president same as the northerners. Maybe you have forgotten about the violence that followed the election result in the north. SW has left GEJ, GEJ only has SS. Middle belt and SE will be divided maybe not equally but enough to hurt GEJs 2nd tenure.

As I said, its a movie, let's watch. Its an interesting one. *brings out popcorn*

Dee60:


Please do not compare him with Obasanjo at all. OBJ was like a saint till his second term in office. GEJ has only been there 2 years. Let us just pray he does not turn into something else in the 3rd year. Absolute power is not good for Nigeria.

Lool, OBJ has always been a smart evil. We knew it but he's smart so he delayed his evil which is why Atiku was deceived.
Politics / Re: Rotimi Amaechi Has Been Suspended From PDP by OneGuyLikeDat: 7:57pm On May 27, 2013
Timehin:

Must the south east always plays a second fiddle to the north I can't see your postulations working and its too soon to conclude that the SW is against GEJ.

Unfortunately SE can't be d president in d nxt election. Dey'll av to play 2nd fiddle to d north just lyk SS did to get there.

Aint it glaring SW is for APC? APC bribing them with roads and co while GEJ keeps missing it in SW. He's sidelined SW and wants to use Fasheun to get to SW. Fasheun has no control in SW. Gani Adams has more control over OPC than Fasheun. Fasheun and Gani Adams are fighting so how will Fasheun do it? Reviving UPN is a very late and lame strategy, Awoist are in ACN already
Politics / Re: Rotimi Amaechi Has Been Suspended From PDP by OneGuyLikeDat: 6:31pm On May 27, 2013
Prof Corruption:

1.Not really. But suspension might not really be much of a surprise to him considering the fact that the powers in PDP had ignored him like a leper for a long time. There's nothing new by "officialising" the so called suspension via a press release.

2.So suspension in this case signals more of what's coming. The option of destabilizing Rivers state to activate state of emergency is not attractive. So, they can't unleash ex-militants on him. The option of declaring his seat vacant should he be finally expelled is equally not feasible. There is a legal precedent (courtesy of Atiku's struggle) that only a court of competent jurisdiction can make such pronouncement. The workable option available is impeachment.

3.If Amaechi has a strong hold on Rivers House of Assembly, then GEJ is messing with himself big time. The end result would just be like NGF election. Despite intimidation, threats and political chicanery, his proxy lost woefully. However, if the ranks of the Assembly Members can be broken via inducement and promise of political portfolio a la 2015 ( a development that can not be totally ruled out), the impeachment ll be fast (not necessarily legal) as seen in many cases before Dariye, Ladoja, Peter Obi.

4.The powers to suspend LG chairman are more vested in the assembly than the Governor. A governor can not remove LG chairman without the approval of the house. A curious twist is the unwillingness of the PDP to sanction other assembly members who supported the decision. Are these honourable members also not PDP members qualified to be sanctioned like Amaechi? They are insulating them largely for a possible future role.

4.Above everything, GEJ is fighting an unnecessary war.In 2015, overall figures may be different but GEJ will win in Rivers State irrespective of who the governor is-Amaechi or Not.

5.His real headache is the North. Why can't he take on Aliyu for instance?

Nice analysis but GEJ dare not touch Aliyu, he touches Aliyu, he touches the north. He wouldn't want to make that mistake, at least not now.

The fact still remains GEJ is on his way out. He won the last election because he was perceived as a "saint". Now he's shown he's just like obasanjo.

APC has the key to remove GEJ only if they get their calculations right. Unfortunately Fashola is a muslim so he can't be a running mate to a northerner. That would have been a game killer for PDP.

Just maybe APC can look towards SE to produce a running mate for whoever they bring out from the north. The question is will that person be very influential?

GEJ has lost SW already, he should forget about that and he's stepped on so many toes waiting to munch him come next year. Amaechi started his fight too early but might just be a sacrificial lamb to expose GEJ and show his "evil" nature.

Let's wait and watch the movie, its a very interesting one.
Politics / Re: Rotimi Amaechi Has Been Suspended From PDP by OneGuyLikeDat: 5:13pm On May 27, 2013
Embittered Jonathan attacking Amaechi from all angle. Luckily for Amaechi, he has d majority of the assembly with him.
He will win the war only if he comprises on his vice presidential ambition and contests for the senate.
Implication for Jonathan is he's lost SW that was influential in his victory. Will those northern governors support him as president? Hmm, food for thought. His governors have split, more to ff Amaechi. PDP is crumbling, APC is growing bigger. The north will withdraw from Jonathan very soon and he'll be left with just SS and SE maybe middle belt too sa. He's losing he just does not know it.
He can't control his party, he has so many forces against him. He can choose to rig the next elections if he so desires to win cuz no way for him again.
