My people, please how do I get car insurance o. I am about to pay for a car and it has been very difficult getting an insurance even to just take the car home. I have international drivers license. Please it's quite urgent. Thanks all

Anybody please? This is a live situation. Thanks.

Am so happy today, I passed my practical test on second attempt though with just three minor faults.
Please I want to ask, do I need to inform my insurance of my new license status or do I still stick to my former status which was International license. If yes, please why?

Sorry oh, but why is it at the point of purchase you thought of insurance? Use these for insurance. Mind you, if your insurance is starting today, it's likely going to be slightly higher. You might be better off leaving the car and picking it up another day or asking the vendor to move it to your home.

Many thanks. The vendor has moved it to the house, sitting in front of the house waiting for the day I would understand this insurance thing.

You can get insurance with an international drivers license. Check out marshmallow…they tend to offer good rates to immigrants just coming in with a driving history.

Regex:



One thing is having a past experience and another is letting it define you. You can learn from it, hut don't let it define you. There are certain things you see that will tell you if you are wasting time on a woman or not. Yes thr Genie app is a dating app.

I don't seem to find the app on playstore. Do know where I can find it or what the icon looks like pls?

Congrats on passing your test.

Don't inform your insurance company!!!

Like you I passed in August and went ahead to inform them (hastings direct), and was charged a one off fee of almost GBP 100.

I asked why and the agent said because I was a 'new' UK driver, so my risk was higher. Didn't make sense but I had to follow-through because I had updated my information. So my advise: stay silent, wait till end of your current tenure and go back on the market for a cheaper deal.

my Intl drivers licence also expired i.e I was using it for more than 12months which is also risky, so had to update my details at all costs.

Thanks a lot.

I will advice you inform them even though your premium might slightly increase.

Sometimes it is painful to realize that we are a blessed people, yet we suffer for the minutest things. I did export business while in naija...charcoal specifically, and I saw hell, before things started to get better and I ran back to start writing "patient was apparently well until 2 days ago ".

When I see how farmers in other African nations don't have to go through these rigours, I weep.

At this point, I don't even mind exploring East Africa.

That's my plan when I'm ready to revisit the business in the future. Someone suggested Benin Republic specifically for palm fruit farming. Nigeria agro industry is for those with either money bags or shock absorbers and huge risk appetite. Talking from experience

Yea, no sentiment. It's disheartening though that the country keeps pushing away potential investments due to its low-rated ease of doing business indices

Bro, no be today e start. All those Senators all own business in African countries. They have back ups here and there. But, they would never initiate and sustain policies that would make agro business thrive for the common man.

Uganda and Kenya are reaping massively from agro export.

With our arable farmlands in Naija herdsmen no go allow you see road.

Imagine the market sesame, ginger, hibiscus (which we relegated to making zobo) , cashew, stoneflower, etc control globally.

Indians and Lebanese and Chinese guys with their heavy capital and favours from greasing palms are exploiting these markets in naija.


I remember how these guys would go to farm gate and because they are fair and yellow , they spoil the price and the unexposed natives who have not seen oyibo fall over themselves to sell to them.
I suddenly become "Omo yigbo" as better don come.
The problem of that country is just deep rooted.

Abi na the wahala of getting goods into the ports? Chai... Naija needs a miracle.

I remember how Indians come to farm and buy all cashew seed from farmers.

Indians took the Cashew and Cocoa market

Lebanese took the charcoal market

Chinese took the wood and solid minerals market.


These guys buy direct from the source. They have more support from the government and even the locals.

That’s a terrible idea.

The moment you become a fully licensed driver your previous insurance becomes invalid which means first it’s a crime to continue driving, and if you have any accident your insurance company will not cover.

100 pounds is not worth that risk.

Hi guys, Please a friend needs advice. She is a carer in a care home. One of the nurses said she recieved a complaint about her from a resident. The resident said she pin him to the wall, rough handled him and he felt scared for his life. She said nothing like that ever happened and in fact the man even praised her that she was one of the best carers to attend to him and always commend her effort everyone. But she was shocked at the sudden change of tone. There was no bruise or anything physical on the resident. However, she said the nurse in question hated her so much and have told many lies about her to the manager to get her sacked. The same nurse had previously made the owner to sack an African carer and she is the only African carer left they were just 2 before.

The issue is the resident is saying he is contacting his lawyers ( she believes the nurse is pressurising him to do so). The owner sent her a letter postponing her regular review until she hears from her lawyers.

Please what do you advise my friend to do cos she is worried.

Any CCTV footage?

Did she document her last encounter with him properly?


I have someone who was just cleared after 11 months last week. The old woman accused him of handling her breasts. Old woman wey don dey reach 90 o.
These wicked people kept postponing their so called panel even after police had done their own investigations and cleared him.

We prayed o

He also started writing petitions.


So it could be a long journey anyhow.


A second guy was framed by his co-workers (white dudes) that they saw him force-feeding a resident.

That one just got called off after 5 months...


So just make sure her documentation has no loophole.

The man didn't complain to her, there was no incident to document except the normal service she provided the man which was documented.

Yes inform them.

If you don't inform them, the insurance will be on your int'l licence which is now invalid making the insurance invalid. You won't be able to make a in the event of an accident and this may be costly.

Except you want to continue to drive on the int'l license and not the UK license.

Hi Community,

Please a relative of mine (female) is in urgent need of accommodation within or near Sheffield area. She just started her Masters Program at Sheffield Hallam University and has not been able to secure accommodation. Please any help with respect to the accommodation will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Might be able to point her in the right direction if she is still searching for a place. Let her drop me a mail
paulybam3008@gmail.com

Good morning everyone.
Please I need urgent answers to these question.
My boyfriend who has a visitor visa to Uk was denied boarding by Royal air maroc official because his return ticket is from Turkish airline.
As per policies, I want to be believe all airlines are independent and royal air has no business with his return ticket.
I am so pained, frustrated and confused.
What can I do?

justwise:


I was a victim of this in my first few months in this country, the default advise given to new immigrants is to find a Nigeria church so as to get help with job, accommodation etc

I get to know a Nigerian through a family friend here when i was looking for accommodation, He gave a room in a house he was subletting, gave me a bible, helped me find a 'job' with Royal Mail,(i worked for a day and never went back) took me to their church where he is very very respected and almost everyone knows him.

I was settled with him and keep going to that church even without him. when i moved in there he told me that the rent is bills inclusive(£50 a wk) which i was happy with.

just 3wks in the accommodation i received a bill of £200, i called to ask him and he said i should just pay it.

Sir Is royal mail job extremely stressful?

I'm thinking of applying there

No lies, you probably forgot to add the leather market in the North too, Chinese and Lebanese also export them.
