Please which area is one more likely to get into faster. Network Admin and/or Data Analyst.

Lexusgs430:
Don't expect to appear in the UK on monday and be a bank manager at Midland bank or Northern Rock on tuesday...... That would be setting yourself up for a massive fall........

IT is good, network administrators are always required, software developers/app creators etc etc........ Unfortunately, you might not have enough time, to properly acquire said new skills..........

RalphJean:

If you said Trump is the most useless president ever liveth, Please what will you call the Abuja/UK based President. Help a brother, I want to know the right adjective to qualify him.

People shouting Nonsense Tradition in the 21st will still go to church and do white wedding after Traditional marriage.
Stupidity is when you think another mans tradition is superior to yours.

Ameey:
Hello house, I'm new here.
Please is Portsmouth a good area to live in terms of job opportunities and affordable cost of living?

I tried asking Google this your question and the answer is scary like very scary.

Thank you for your response.

Do I have to write IELTS too, will doing it increase her score?.

How do I do free assessment.

Thank you. Please don't mind my useless questions.

carissaa:
I think its better to use her as PA.
This is because, age is not on your side and your CRS score will be low. However, your wife's profession is in demand in almost all provinces and she has worked with her degree so it would be easier to try provincial nomination to boost your points.

Good morning gurus in the house, I have been a silent reader for awhile now, I must say you are all doing wonderful jobs here.
Please I'm confused as how to start this journey and who to use as a PA between me and wifey.
1. I have an OND mathematics/Statistics 2007, I have 6years experience as a cashier/Customer care officer. Contract Staffing.
I also have a B.Ed Mathematics 2019. I have a 4years mathematics teaching experience Part time. If I am to be the PA, should I evaluate all my credential. ie., OND 2007& B.Ed 2019. Will I have more points in doing only OND or Both.

I have my own farm that I'm currently managing as the CEO. Since 2015.

2. Wifey is a Nurse, have RN ie Nursing License, RM ie Midwifery licence. She has 10years experience in a Teaching Hospital. Is it better to use her as the PA, for her evaluation, will she secure more points by evaluating the two Certs.

We are both 37 years of Age.

Please help a brother.

Udemy is for personal development and the certificate is symbolic. No employer will ask to see your Udemy certificate, most don't even ask for your degree certificates. Just use to learn or sharpen your skills and state on your CV what you can do.

Thank you Sir

Thank you Again.

Are Certificates gotten from udemy in Nigeria useful in the UK?.

I want to know because I'm already doing one and intend to do more if it's useful there.

You do the maths yourself sir:

If you know in your heart that you won’t fight with your wife when she comes here and because she doesn’t want to do all she used to do in Nigeria, then you can come under her. It’s cost efficient and very flexible.
You just sit in your house and be applying for jobs while learning one or two courses in Udemy- no pressure.

If you know you will vex and fight with your wife and consider divorce, better close your eyes and spend the money and be on your own o (luckily it’s on the shortage list) so we won’t hear stories that touch the heart.[/quote]

Thank you for this straight forward advice.
I won't be African in marriage on the UK soil I have never been even here in Nigeria even as a banker back then.

So make I just relax and follow her.

Plus, a friend of mine who is in the UK said it's so hard over there especially.

If I have survived Nigeria especially the last four years I can comfortably survive in Hell fire.

The gurus in the house please advice a brother.

Why Abia North MUST NOT VOTE for Chief Orji Uzor Kalu
APC Candidate for Abia North Senatorial Zone


Before 1999, Chief Orji Uzor kalu (a well known 419 man) called some Bende leaders and
claimed he was then richer than Abia State and pleaded with them to support him to become
the Governor of Abia State. According to him, he was no longer into 419 and promised to make old Bende and Abia a pride of place in terms of infrastructural development and appointment of
our people into positions of authority. The Old Bende machinery went into action and
convinced Abians he was a man of the moment and integrity.

Eight years after Chief Orji Uzor Kalu presided over Abia State as executive Governor which he spent 7 trillion naira, Abia North has nothing to show for it except his mother, himself his brothers and lgbere community who ab initio where opposed to him due to his dubious and quarrelsome character.

The following facts speak of Chief Orji Uzor Kalu's deceit of Old Bende people and call for his rejection at the February Election by Abia North Senatorial Zone.

1. As soon as Orji Uzor was sworn in as Governor her mother became a tigress who humiliated
captains of Industry, technocrats, top civil servants and intellectuals who visited Nweke street
to meet with the Governor by subjecting them to (lgba egusi) pealing of melon. Ugly still, Chief Orji Uzor Kalu on his part subjected Commissioner's Nominees to oath taking at Okija shrine, Chairmanship candidates and councillorship candidates. This ungodly act has eaten deep into the fabrics of Governance in Abia State. Since he left it, permit me to say that Abians should denounce this act openly by organizing an open air service at Michael Okpara Auditorium to seek the face of our God.

2. With the enthronement of mamacracy, Chief Orji Kalu i.e Kalu's dynasty converted all key appointments into private ventures of the family aimed at using appointees as instruments of stealing funds of Abia State and favouring their lgbere kith and kin. For instance, 14 permanent secretaries appointed by Orji Uzor Kalu 11 were from Igbere while 3 were from Abia North made up of 5 local government areas. Some of the (lghere) permanent secretaries were not
qualified and came from the local government system to be made permanent secretaries. The result is that today many large communities that have many directors such as Alayi, item,
Abiriba etc have no permanent Secretary in the service then when he was Governor.

3: Chief orji Kalu use his position as Governor to illegally, and forcefully acquired the land of all the communities that have common boundaries with lgbere namely Ozuitern, Alayi, ltem, Umuhu Ezechi and Abiriba.
For instance the land where the NYSC Abia State Orientation camp is sited belongs to item but he used his former girl friend judge to secure judgment at the high court that the land belonged to lgbere when there is a supreme court decision saying it belonged to Item people.


4. All the infrastructural facilities meant for Abia North during Chief Orji Uzor Kalu administration
were selfishly executed by him in lgbere. Out of 59 roads that were constructed or reconstructed 52 were carried out in lgbere including construction of roads leading to toilets and shrines in lgbere. This has left most communities in Abia north with dusty and bad roads. The remaining 7 Constructed in the following communities including Ugwueke, Ezeukwu, Alayi, Item, Ohafia, Arochukwu, Isuikwuato and Umunneochi. These few roads he built in these communities and Aba have all gone bad or have
pot holes while the ones he built in lgbere are still good.


5. Orji Uzor built in lgbere all the high courts meant to be built in Ohafia, Bende, Arochukwu,
Isuikwuato and Umunneochi Local Government Areas.

6. Orji uzor kalu in his selfish bid to build his private university at lgbere with the land ot Item and
Alayi people deceitfully has in the days of mamacracy forced Abia State Government to give him Umunnato General Hospital to be part of his 419 University. It was because of this plan that he
hurriediy renovated the Umunneato General Hospital and built a School of Nursing facility. All these are aimed at taking over the Umunneato General Hospital and the adjourning parcels of land belonging to Item and Alayi people as his property for his private University. Thanks to
Governor T.A. orji wno killed mamacracy and put this wicked plan to death.

But a vote for APC means orji will get this wicked plan revived.


7. A vote for Orji Uzor kalu means making Abia North senaterial zone to continue to be in the
opposition party without attracting any federal presence but for achieving selfish interest of the Orji uzor kalu Dynasty.
This was what affected Senator Chukwumerije in the past as he was opposition senator with mamacracy forcing him to use his resources to better the lot of mama Odiuko who is indeed now truly Odiuko as we no longer see her and sons including fighting
the President and myriads of endless enemies of Chief Orji Uzor Kalu who is at his evil best
when fishing in unnecessary trouble waters.

8. A vote for arji Uzor means that we are supporting the continued greed of the Orji Dynasty with Orji Uzor as a senator, A man who cannot express himself at the floor of the Red Chambers.


9. It will also means voting for corruption and anarchy at the senate as Orji is still facing corruption charges for looting Abia State treasury to build his slok empire. Orji is also most likely to spend his energy fighting the Senate President and the Abia State Governor in his usual advancement of his selfish interest and greed through blackmail and quarrelling with his seniurs etc. for instance Orji Uzor kept dragging Old Bende and Abia State into crisis in his quarrels with his then deputy Governor Enyinnaya Abaribe, Orji Uzor versus Chima Nwafor whom he later poisoned to death, Orji Uzor versus Tony Anenih, Abuja Politicians and Abia state Governor. Orji uzor versus
president Olusegun Obasanjo which led to Orji taking Abia out the National life and politics
to his personal pocket, Even in PPA it was Orji versus National Exco of PPA leading to his
expulsion as Chairman of Board of Trustees of PPA. We also had Orji versus the wife and mama
Orji versus Orji's wife, Enougn is Enough.

Let every Abia North voter, Vote for PDP so that we can run away from this trouble maker and self-styled man.

Which way?

1st they want restructuring YES
2nd If restructuring is not set in motion or date for referendum given the won't be Election. YES. Your 2nd ascertion is fallacy.

MrigweC:
My problem is that my fellow Igbo brothers will not channel there resources and time towards making sure our governors in d east brings development rather we are fighting to be on our own . I stayed in umuahia for 23 good years yet no one single overhead bridge , no good government hospitals, no good roads.pay civil servants na problem for them yet every month they will reason allocations.

Is Overhead bridge a sign of development? Is FMC not good enough? Absuth Nko. ? I don't know why people always talk off point here. The discussion is on the Visit of Uwazurike to the Northern Nigeria. Say what you think about the visit not insulting people. How much is the entire south East allocation from the FG you can start analyzing from the 2017 budget. Uwazurike shouldn't have visited the Northern Nigeria to beg for unity if he still thinks of Biafra, the only thing I see is telling the Igbo's that he was scamming them all along

While there (FG) are at it Ndi IGBO in the North should read through.
IGBO LAA
IGBO GO
(By Arewa 1966)

This was the Quit Order of 1966 before the birth of many many of us Ndigbo.

This Quit order was said to have been downplayed by the then Military Govnor of the Northern Region in Kaduna, Col Usman Katsina assuring Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu the then Military Governor of Eastern Region that there was no cause for alarm, Baa magana.

Today 51 years after, same scenario same Quit Notice same calmdown statement is being repeated and replayed by same actors (or descendants of same actors) as if we are watching award winning movie.

In 1966 while Ojukwu allowed and provided trains and trailers that evacuated Ndiawusa from Eastern Region back to the North, Ndigbo nay NdiEast (Nyanmiri) were lured into Emirs palaces and mosques for "protective custody" and therein they were all slaughtered.

Today again same history is exactly repeating itself and Govnor El Rufai, Gov Shettima, Chief Lai, IGP say, Igbos should not bother, Igbos should not panic that they are on top of the situation and have even ordered the "arrest" of the "nonentities".
Fullstop!
End of the Story!

48hrs after the Arrest Order was given no arrest has been made, nobody has been invited by the Police as if the "culprits" are ghosts who don't have addresses and identities. As if it was foreigners that opened the Arewa Gates and Halls for them to hold the (in)famous Conference tagged #Kaduna Declaration!

Ndigbo shine your eyes.

What killed your father, ... elo (mushroom)
What killed your mother, ... elo
What is that you are holding in your hands... elo

Throw it away!
It's Aru (Abomination!)

WHAT THE ACTING PRESIDENT MUST KNOW ABOUT THE BANK OF INDUSTRY YOUTH ENTREPRENEURSHIP PROGRAMME (BOI YES-P)
It has become necessary to cry to His Excellency, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo concerning the lingering deceit of the Bank of Industry against the enterprising youths of our great country. Even the blind can see the passion with which His Excellency is trying to steer the Nigerian economy from a monolithic, import-dependent, unemployment-drowned economy to a diversified, export-driven and creatively-productive one. The strides he has taken to launch different intervention and social support programs to encourage entrepreneurship, harness the youths’ potentials and grow the SME segment of the economy is plausible. However, it is sad that the Bank of Industry (BOI) is stopping at nothing to bring his lofty vision to naught.
Recall that in March 2016, the Bank of Industry launched a program to support and empower annually, at least 5,000 young entrepreneurs with soft loans, through a program tagged Youth Entrepreneurship Support Programme (YES-P). The idea seemed noble since it has been identified in several studies that lack of funding constitutes over 80% of problems faced by young entrepreneurs in Nigeria. Well, it may interest His Excellency to know that the BOI program was all deceit, decoy and a stunt to garner cheap publicity through the media. We have seen on various media, the management of BOI claiming that the YES-P program has been a complete success, while in reality, only a minute subset of the total final application has been attended to. The rest are cunningly dishonored, ignored or tactically delayed to discourage the participants. Whenever participants of the BOI programme try to voice out their grievances and expose the BOI; the bank quickly use tax payers’ money to run media adverts to cast dirt on the image or eligibility of participants. Their tactics is to claim that participants submitted fake academic certificates, inflated the cost in their invoices or that ideas or businesses they presented do not meet their minimum Risk Acceptance Criteria (RAC) therefore are not fundable. Permit a little digression on these claims.
IN THE BEGINNING
Among the over 80,000 young entrepreneurs who applied to be supported with soft loans via the programme, about 5,000 were selected by BOI as having viable/fundable ideas or businesses. These 5,000 selected entrepreneurs were subjected to over 3 months online and in-class intensive trainings and later certified as eligible. It is appalling however, that after the training, only 1,350 entrepreneurs (just 27% of the trained/qualified participants and 1.8% of the total participants) were able to submit the final application, the rest could not meet the cut-throat, extra-strict criteria set by the BOI to deliberately discourage participants from sending in final request for the loan. Besides changing the rules several times half way to discourage participants, they have since disqualified a lot more people out of the measly 1.8% selected/trained participants with the excuse that their idea is no longer fundable.
The question is why disqualify ideas which have been initially picked as laudable after adding months of training to further enrich them? Why would ideas like fish production, food processing, bread baking, renewable/alternative energy production or online selling be called non-viable and termed to be businesses not reaching the BOI minimum Risk Acceptance Criteria (RAC)? Why would they disqualify a university graduate – whom same BOI claim to have spent 600 million naira of tax payer’s money to train – on the basis of lack of experience? How much experience did Mark Zuckerburg or Bill Gates have before building the revolutionary billion dollar unicorns we all know today? Even those of us who have started our businesses over 3 years ago are still disqualified for not having experience on same business; it is clear that these are diversionary tactics.
BOI TREATING PARTICIPANTS WITH DISREGARD AND DISTRUST
The Bank of Industry have been treating participants of YES-P as thieves and opportunists for the past one year, They have been insulted by BOI officials, ignored for several months with no information on the way forward. Participants get threatened with disqualification for daring to ask questions, disqualified after several months and no real explanation is given. They claim Nigerian youths are not to be trusted.
The question is how much trust did arms-carrying militant groups build before being doused with billions of naira in amnesty payouts? Do youths have to be taken for granted because they are civil? Do youths have to become militarized and violent or join armed struggles before they can be given a chance in this country? Must we sacrifice the future of this country at the altar of the ego of a few opportune officials?
ENDLESS EXCUSES AND SHIFTING OF DEADLINES TO FRUSTRATE PARTICIPANTS
For over one year, the Bank of Industry has subjected YES-P participants to one new criterion after another; they give excuses weekly and change their own deadlines several times. Some participants have even been issued fake Offer Letters in some states so they can buy time and forestall angry protests from irate participants of YES-P. It has become obvious that they only intend to fund a very small percentage of the participants and use that to deceive the public that the program is a success. The BOI has been severally quoted in the media to have improved the economy by supporting thousands of youths through the YES-P initiative; meanwhile only less than 100 participants have received funding. The rest are being disqualified with flimsy reasons every passing day.
SOME EXAMPLES OF CRITERIA SET BY THE BANK OF INDUSTRY FOR A SUPPOSED INTERVENTION PROGRAM
- Each participant was mandated to submit 2 guarantors worth double the requested loan amount (someone seeking 5 million naira must get 2 guarantors worth 10 million naira), the guarantors must present their bank account statements, declaration of financial net worth, certificate of occupancy for landed properties with building in it. Any landed property without building is unacceptable, they are to submit their letter of employment, letter of last promotion, pay slips etc.
- Participants are to pay a processing fee of 1% of approved loan amount and legal fees in cash before disbursement is approved.
SUMMARY OF OUR COMPLAINTS
- The bank of industry rules are too strict, they are meant to deliberately discourage participants from applying for the loan.
- Applications are rejected without explanations whereas BOI could have called in such participants whose business plan do not meet BOI standard and guide them to ensure they get an opportunity to pursue their dreams.
- BOI is more interested in claiming success in the media than achieving real success in the programme
- There is unnecessary delay in disbursement of the loan
- Some branch of BOI are issuing fake, invalid offer letters to participants to deceive the public
- The BOI are thinking too narrow in the box and not giving young entrepreneurs room for innovation in an age of tech explosion.
IN THE LIGHT OF THE ABOVE, WE HEREBY PLEAD WITH YOUR EXCELLENCY THE ACTING PRESIDENT OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA TO:
- Set up a monitoring committee for the programme headed by the Federal Ministry of Finance or Trade and Industry.
- Invite the EFCC to investigate the spending habits of the BOI and ensure that there is fairness and due process in the use of funds.
- Invite representatives of BOI YES-P participants to defend themselves in the face of the many lies peddled against them by the BOI.
- Prevail on the BOI to disburse funds to participants whose certificate has been verified and reduce the time it takes to verify certificates to at most, 14 days.
- Prevail on BOI to soften the criteria and become more flexible with guarantor issues in line with the new Collateral Registry Act.
- Prevail on the BOI to immediately drop the 2 million naira funding barrier placed on startups, they should give equal chance to all participants to access the 5 million naira loan because all businesses are unique and require varying amounts of fund to run; besides most businesses need more funds than can be expressly estimated.
- Prevail on the BOI to re-visit the business plans of the participants who have been rejected and provide guide to them so that their knowledge can be updated where it is lacking. Every trained participant with genuine academic certificate should be given the loan.
- Prevail on the BOI to correct the calculation of amortization to reflect decreasing rate of interest on the loan
- Those who were unable to put in final application for the loan should be given another 3 months to meet up the criteria and submit their application.
- Prevail on BOI to immediately immediately soften other loan criteria to incorporate the tenets of a true intervention program and give room for participants to get the loan.
In the mean time, we have appealed to the teeming population of the YES-P participants to wait for the intervention of His Excellency, before they proceed on the next course of action. We thrust that Mr. President (Ag) will do the needful as a father with listening ears.
Thanks.

Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!

MY THOUGHTS ON THE RELEASED CHIBOK GIRLS......QUITE PERSONAL!!!!

I thought Book Haram has been defeated, as the Government said. How come PMB's Government negotiated with them to release 82 Chibok girls? How come our military could not locate these Chibok girls all these times, since they, our military are in control of all Sambisa Forest and BH enclave. Something is not adding up please.

Hmmm!! Secret Trial ko! Trial Ni!!..

The Thing is That, the more this Government keep Tormenting this Guy Nnamdi KANU, the more Issues they keep compiling for themselves. Why not face the Issue at hand and find a more diplomatic way of handling this?? Majority is clamouring for Regional Government, why not consider the Majority to be on a safer side?? Is it until they plunge this country into bloodsheed that they will listen? You see, it took Nigeria over 7years trying to Contain Bokoharam from the very moment the Government Killed their Leader. Nnamdi Kanu's case is different. Cause, if anything happens to him, I do not think Nigeria will be able to contain the Radicals that IPOB have been breeding for years. Trust me, these guys are well structured, and are ready to fund another war in this country. It did not take Nnamdi months to raise over 500million Naira for the Equipment used to transmit radio Biafra all over southeast and I'm sure it won't be so difficult to raise over a billion dollars for Arms if tgeve not already done that. You Common Nigeria that don't want to be neutral, Its not going to be a Joking something by then when you start looking for Lizard to feed on as breakfast. Today, Nnamdi to you is like a small Shit but you don't know that that small shits can spoil fine yarsh. When you start crying had I known will still come if Nigeria don't handle this BIAFRAN secession case with Wisdom.

As for me I stand with Nnamdi, cause everything he is says is truth. No matter how you want to see it we were never one, but we are learning to be one as we were forced to be by the British Govt. Pure truth is the case he present against Nigeria. I see Atiku going about preaching True Federalism.. He is doing that because he knows deep down his conscience, the system is a big Lie. But he needs Southern Votes in 2019 so he will Continue until he finds himself in that Seat come 2019. While Nnamdi languish in prison. There is a limit to what Ndi.Igbo can take. Let's start discussing the wayfirward now, just as GEJ did with the National Conference. Buhari should learn to be a good leader.
