Also,
I have another question,
How do I navigate from where the bus will stop me to my hotel seeing that I may have not gotten a UK SIM by then?
If I decide I want to use uber,how do I hail a uber without internet on my phone(Seeing that
I will have no SIM with data) then..?

If you received the Lebara sim from the VAC in Nigeria, you can slot it in your phone and start using when you land.

It works immediately

You can activate roaming on your phone and still browse..... it'll likely connect with Vodafone network and you'll be able to use the internet.

Ensure you have enough airtime in your phone.

Add your dollar card to your Uber cos you can't pay in cash and can't order without a card added to your Uber account.

BorisJohnson:
Is Barking a ‘Nice’ area?
Yes. There is a sizeable Nigerian/Black community in Barking. But is it really a Nice area?

Yes I consider Barking a nice area. It's not luxurious but it's nice with a diverse population, shops/market for my needs and not too far away from central.

I know Barking is no Stratford, but I still consider it a nice environment.

There are some very quiet estates here too if you want to stay in the very quiet parts.

Wow, wish I knew this 4 weeks ago..

I am surprised there are no priority services via vfs.

Meanwhile, has anyone been able to get a refund from UKVI for priority service that was not honored?
Reaching them is so difficult, it is frustrating.

I'm surprised at the level of disorganization at UKVI

.

Maybe he is talking about visa fee and not visa itself

Visa fee doesn't mean selling of visa and he's been told visa is not sold.

Just like international passport is not sold though one pays a fee for it

Politics › Re: Epileptic Power Supply As Warri Residents Protest by Owoado(m): 4:18pm On Jul 03, 2019

The problem with Nigeria's power sector is deep, I mean very deep.

Power generation is poor - transmission lines/facilities are obsolete causing some of the generated power to be lost in transit - Discos cant meter customers - Customers steal energy - Discos can't recover cost of power - Discos over bill customers - customers refuse to pay - Disco supplies power to only paying customers - protest erupts.

I have not even scratched the surface of the problems in the power sector.

It is deep, it keeps getting deeper, and I weep for Nigeria. Nothing seems to work here.....I weep for the future generation, especially the poor/average man

This dude clearly doesn't even know how to lie. Shame on his handlers.

Simply apologise, accept whatever punishment from your party and the Senate (which would be less strict if you apologise), and settle the lady you assaulted out of court.

He is hoping something else will happen this week to make us forget.

Crime › Re: Man Burnt Alive In Ajah Over Land Grabbing In Lagos [Graphic Photos] by Owoado(m): 2:20pm On Jun 19, 2019

That Ajah area is fast becoming notorious, too many fightings of recent. There is a police station in Ajah not far from Ilaje, but all they do is come to Addo road in the night to extort money from Keke Napep, bike men and innocent car owners.

One time, the agberos were fighting with keke drivers under the Ajah bridge (Jubilee Bridge), and the policemen were busy harassing keke drivers just about a minute walk away.

There is no security in Nigeria. If you check the areas known to be secure, it is the citizens that are providing the security for themselves.

Tripleb:
I have gotten two jobs from dragnet tests, my current one inclusive and this Exxonmobil test is not in anyway different rather upscaled, trust me a whole lot of people will ace that test. Sometimes speed is more important than accuracy!

Bro, I've written dragnet before (passed and failed), my first job was through a dragnet test. But that episode that played on Saturday was a disaster. I couldn't do anything. If I move to the next stage, then it is squarely God not me. I know some people will do well, but it was very tough for me.

Something just happened now and am in civia pains again.

I took this barney from Lekki to somewhere in Ikeja. All throughout the journey, I couldn't concentrate because this girls shape, perfume and gait was killing me. Just look at the backside in the picture! Whooooooo......

This girl was so soft looking. She has this thing about her that says... Please Fvck me badly... I need you inside me. She was also very soft spoken and applied wet lips.

I wanted to bite her lips as she spoke. I just wanted to rush in without warning and start kissing her. But as usual, I remembered that Uber has my details and maintained my cool.

At a time, something was telling me to change destination to Lekki conservation forest where I will be alone with her and watch animals. Maybe... Something happens from there.

We continued the journey. As we got close to her street, I couldn't control myself again and I decided to shoot my shot. I told her boldly that I liked her and would love to marry her. I asked for her number and The girl said am a crazy man and rebuffed me.

Las Las, she told me to end the trip that she will trek the rest. She also said she will report me to Uber. That am sexually harrassing her and highly unprofessional.

I decided to snap this picture as she was leaving for evidence and future uses. Evidence incase Uber asks me why I decided to toast her. I will simply forward this pic to the Uber manager and ask him... If its him, won't he try his luck... Am serious. See shape... See height... See Waist... See Colour.. Abeg... This girl set Jare. I will even insist she dressed seductively and Uber has a strong policy against seducing drivers.

Again, am also keeping this picture for future uses when am Alone.

Brothers, was I wrong in shooting my shot?

Dude, If this is a true story, kindly reach out to the lady and apologize. Also remove this post and her picture. This was totally wrong, you shouldn't write this here and attach her picture. Keep some things within the confines of your mind.
