Social care is a nice course.
Physiotherapy is a nice course.

We should dump this art courses.. Supply chain management, business this, MBA, management this and that and opt for science.

The gpod news is that even with your art degree you can still do these courses on accelerated level.
best advice I am here, that's the reality on ground.

Thank you Mindlog,

You actually got the point. Her confidence level is completely low. As brilliant as she is, she did IELTS a couple of times and did OET in March. The OET was close. Only 30 points remaining in one band. In fact, she scaled her CBT once last year, which will expire next year March. But as it is, I doubt if she can face any exam that relates to traveling again, because of anxiety. She is beginning to see herself wasting a lot of money on exams. She still performs brilliantly in other regular school exams.

I will read about the Global Talent Visa and Skilled Worker visa tonight and revert back if in doubt. However, I'm still open to responses about the study route though. Thanks
like some one said. Your wife as bsc holder, she only needs to convert her Nigeria degree to UK equivalent. You can still get POF too
Foreign AffairsRwanda Confirms Talks With US About Taking In Migrants by Otuegbe(op): 5:07pm On May 05, 2025
Rwanda is in the "early stage" of talks with the Trump administration to accept migrants deported by the US, the East African country's Foreign Affairs Minister Olivier Nduhungirehe has said.

His comments come after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said last month that Washington was "actively searching" for countries that would take in "some of the most despicable human beings".

Nduhungirehe said the talks were "not new to us" as Rwanda had previously agreed to accept migrants deported by the UK.

However, the UK abandoned the scheme, which faced numerous legal challenges, after Sir Keir Starmer's Labour government took office last July.

Speaking to Rwandan TV on Sunday, Nduhungirehe said the government was in the "spirit" of giving "another chance to migrants who have problems across the world".

Nduhungirehe added that the talks with the US were continuing, and it was too early to predict their outcome.

Since coming to office in January, US President Donald Trump has focused on speeding up the removal of undocumented migrants, with the promise of "mass deportations".

In February, El Salvador offered to take in criminals deported from the US, including those with US citizenship, and house them in its mega-jail.

Salvadorean President Nayib Bukele said his government would do so "in exchange for a fee".

Panama and Costa Rica have also taken in migrants deported from the US.

Last week an unnamed Rwandan official told the Washington Post that the country was "open" to taking in more migrants expelled from the US, after having accepted an Iraqi in March.

The official added that talks with the US started shortly after Trump's inauguration in January.

Rwanda has previously been criticised for its human rights record, including the risk that those sent to the East African nation could be deported again to countries where they may face danger.

However, Rwanda says it is a safe place for refugees.

Pope Francis has died at the age of 88, the Vatican has announced.

Christianity EtcRe: What God Gave To Adam When He Was Lonely (Pic) by Otuegbe: 2:17pm On Mar 09, 2025
Eve was not created merely because Adam was lonely. I believe God had a greater plan for creation and companionship, which is why He originally designed Adam with male anatomy. The creation of Eve signifies the importance of partnership, unity, and the complementary nature of relationships. God’s intention was not only to provide companionship but also to establish a foundation for humanity to flourish, reflect His image, and fulfill His divine purpose. This act underscores the value of relationships, the beauty of diversity, and the intentional design of humanity as male and female, each playing a unique role in His grand plan for creation.

Wow, that's quite a turn of events! It seems like the tables have definitely turned. Just a few months ago, El Rufia was in London, actively promoting Tinubu to the world. Meanwhile, Reno was also in London, but with a very different agenda, actively criticizing Tinubu and accusing him of being a drug lord.

It's fascinating to see how the political landscape can shift so quickly.

HealthNHS To Offer 'groundbreaking' Sickle Cell Gene Therapy by Otuegbe(op): 4:00pm On Feb 02, 2025
A gene-editing therapy for sickle cell disease, with a price tag of £1.65m, is to be offered to patients on the NHS in England.

About 50 people a year with the inherited blood disorder are likely to receive it, experts say.

Prof Bola Owolabi, of NHS England, called it a "monumental step forward", and said the one-off treatment Casgevy, also known as Exa-cel, "holds a very real prospect of a cure".

A confidential agreement has been made with manufacturer Vertex on how much the NHS will pay.

Campaigners have described the treatment as "groundbreaking" and its availability on the NHS as a "milestone".

Sickle cell disease can be life-threatening and cause recurring intense pain, when blood vessels become blocked by misshapen red cells.

About 15,000 people in England live with the condition, which mainly affects people of Black African and Black Caribbean heritage.

It is caused by genetic change that means people make haemoglobin - a key protein in red blood cells - that doesn't work properly.

This results in red blood cells becoming sickle in shape and stiff and sticky - rather than flexible smooth discs.

These sickle cells do not live as long as healthy red blood cells and can clump as they travel around blood vessels - reducing oxygen to vital parts of the body.

This puts people at risk of organ damage, stroke, heart failure and a greatly reduced quality of life.

In trials all patients who received the therapy - which tweaks a specific gene and allows the body to make more healthy red blood cells - avoided stays in hospital for a year after treatment and most for three-and-a-half years. Further data is still being studied.

NHS chief executive Amanda Pritchard said the therapy "could be absolutely transformative – it could enable patients to live free from the fear of sickle cell crises hanging over them".

Asiawu Imam, 26, lives in London, where she works as a nurse looking after people who have sickle cell disorder. She also lives with the condition.

When she was younger she was in and out of hospital three to four times a year with painful sickle cell crises.

"It feels like a stabbing pain, like someone is stabbing you form the inside outwards. It can last anything from half an hour to four days. It is excruciating," she said.

The therapy being made available on the NHS gives her hope, and a sense to the community that people with the condition are being taken seriously.

"This is going to be a life-changing moment for many of my patients.
