Gerrard59:Well, I wasn't referring to borrow, but there vs their. People always make that mistake... it's not peculiar to Nigerians. I have realised that if you want those foreign schools to waive your IELTS, write a mind-blowing Statement of Purpose/Personal Statement. The admissions teams read everything word for word. At least a C4 in WAEC English language result will help too. That's why they always state that even though they have general admission requirements, they treat every applicant's admission case based on his/her unique circumstances. |

Emman08:Naa! Sunak is just a puppet, Sunak didn't make the decision the Tories made the decision. They just used Sunak to announce it. The Tories are a bunch of old and middle aged white men and women, most of them are racist. |

DadaStephen1:You're absolutely spot on bro. It's really really unfair. Also, I said on some thread last year and some Nigerians were saying a whole UK won't suffer the consequences of their anti migration policies. And the British population assume that students and migrants have recourse to public funds when they don't. Lots of disinformation and false narratives being peddled. You're milking your migrants and sending them away or asking them not to come but just give us your money. The UK will sink itself eventually. Exited the EU, and now even your own population are leaving for better pastures in droves. |

Gerrard59:you don't understand how numbers work but let me help you. According to the UK government’s official statistics, India received the largest share of UK study, work, and visit visas in 2020, with 353,000 granted visas, a 13% increase from the previous year. Nigeria was the fifth largest nationality to receive UK visas, with 118,000 granted visas, a 6% decrease from the previous year. Therefore, India holds the highest number of study permit applications for England, followed by China, the US, Hong Kong, and Nigeria1as you can see from the above, Indians entering the country was more than 3 times compared to Nigeria, Yet they are still second behind Nigerians bringing in their family. if you still don't get it then I suggest you improve your analytic skills. with the numbers above for Indians and Nigerians, Indians should be a distant first if they have the habit of bringing in their families. Like i said, most of them moving to the UK, Canada etc are young. 17 to 24 make up the majority of them. |

Regex:Can you please speak for yourself. I prepared for both IELTS academic and general at different times both in less than 10 days and got an above 7.5 band score each time. The English I learn and speak back home is structurally no different from what is spoken in the UK aside some expected colloquial differences e.g using 'sick' instead of vomit. Many Asians are surprised at our command of the language. Nairaland is a good example that we communicate well in English which afterall is another option along the many languages we speak. |

benalvino3: benalvino3:Nigerians brought more dependants, and Indians came second. But you lied that Indians hardly take their families along. I have already told you, accept that you lied. You won't die if you do. P.S. The debate is not who gets the most visas, but who takes the most dependants alongside the primary applicants. Nigerians and Indians do so very well. |

Gerrard59:I think we need to see language for what it is- cultural and dynamic. Words are added yearly to the English dictionary and what constitutes right and wrong moreso at different times in history is never white or black moreso for a language like English. I could go on and list tens of English words or phrases used only in certain countries or even subregions even within the different countries that make up the UK that are not used elsewhere. Same thing with spellings. E.g When did sick become vomit |

Gerrard59:I cannot help you. you don't have analytic skills. you don't know what par capita is. UK allows 500 Indians in, out of the 500 only 100 bring in dependants. UK allows 150 Nigerians in, out of the 150, 125 bring in dependants. this reflects what I said, India is still 2nd but the ratio is 1 in 5 Indians bring in dependant compared to Nigeria. So what is the Ratio for Nigerians bringing in dependants with the example above? |

benalvino3:Next time, you should state "By sheer numbers, Indians hardly bring dependants compared to Nigerians". This is because according to the stats from the Home Office, Indians come second in dependant ratio. It is that ratio which got the Home Office alarmed, not actual students' numbers after all, amidst the geopolitical brouhaha, the Chinese were at the top as of 2022. |

jedisco:I understand country-specific context, but using "there" for "their" and "borrow" for "lend" no follow. Only Nigerians do so. Only us, even an elite. |
| Re: Foreign Students: UK Varsities May Fall Into Deficit, Says Report by benalvino3: 6:12pm On Jan 12, 2024 |
Gerrard59:with my 2nd post, you should have known I am talking about share numbers. the fact I said what you posted proves my point as Indians are in second place. then my 3post about visas show I was talking about share numbers. you analyze things especially when it has to do with numbers. just because you see one number is higher than the other does not necessarily mean it is higher than the other. So now you know i am not lying. ![]() |

What is the News here? That UK and all there Universities are indirectly threatening Nigeria Populace of 200Millions- that the few that wants a better life , especially in Education - should not bring any Family Members! Who does that , without repacusions? Ti ebiti yin'oba gbobi,a fi eyin feleyin, ' now! Afterall,UK no be the Only recognised Educational Country,in Europe or in other American States,although,they are good! But the reasons for this Discriminatory practices is the wrong -assumptions that ' the Blacks are getting More than their Population'! |

Gerrard59:Na low self-esteem dey worry you. Nigerians, generally are good English speakers. In fact, some of the best in the world. That doesn't mean some Nigerians do not make mistakes with the language. I have heard some Britons speak and I can tell you that many Nigerians are better speakers of the English language than many Britons. The worse are the Americans. This is why most universities in US and Canada put Nigeria as one of those countries whose citizens (if you studied in Nigeria) do not need to provide an English proficiency test to gain admission. The UK knows how much it gets through the British Council from Nigerians. That is why they require us to provide IELTS. |

That’s actually not true. The average international student is younger, single and funded by their parents and family. The average Nigerian international student especially over the last few years is in his or her 40s, married with children and coming as a student solely with the goal of migrating not actually studying. That’s why you see many Nigerians flocking to lower ranked universities which are cheaper and easier to get admission. Many of these universities are just money mills and don’t give a shit about ensuring the students get good jobs or get a good education. If they take the option away Nigerians will still go, we are so desperate and hooked that we will still go. Nbote: |

I live in the UK, and I can tell you that Indians and Bangladeshis bring more dependants than Nigerians. A Nigerian man goes to UK with his wife and kids, that’s all. Worst case, his wife puts to bed, they bring the mother in law for a short stay. An Indian travels to the UK with his wife only. Then in few months, he has brought in 5 relatives of his, then his wife too, then those ones bring more and more and more and more. A Nigerian will come to school and then look for a job permit to remain with his family. An Indian will get a business or self employed visa and bring in numerous Indians to sell in his corner shop or help with his “small business”. That’s why Indians are all over the place! Na dem be PM, na dem be Mayor for London, na dem be Taxi Driver, na dem be everything. UberEats in UK is owned by an Indian 🇮🇳 and na only Indians dem dey employ. Dem don take over 3 Network, dem don dey take over MacDonalds. These guys are the criminals in the UK, yet they have a very strong community and they’re taking over the country gradually. This is same with Pakistanis, Bangladeshis and Sri Lankans. But Nigeria wey no reach anything, na our voice dem go dey hear for everywhere. Very loud and very overconfident in rubbish. Nigerians back home for Nairaland and Facebook go dey cap nonsense on top half information wey dem get about people wey dey UK, the ones wey go get chance manage enter the UK like Emdee Tiamiyu go cast everybody and everything just for 2mins of fame. Na why dem dey put eye and mouth for Nigerians be dat. |
