Hello, the good people of Nairaland. i have to confess that there are a lot of elite, profoundly-smart, sophisticated men and women here on the forum.

u guys are amazing. .....taking a bow!

I have a situation which i am confident u wonderful guys wud put me through right away. i learn a lot here. y'all deserve medals.

I am 29yrs and soon to be 30 in a couple months. but i look and feel way too young. I just ot admitted into the university (100L). the reason for ds is complicated and so its personal. the varsity has my real, true age.

The real issue is whether it wud make sense to start to reduce my age in every official business beyond the confines of my varsity and my studentship there, as the varsity already has my details including age in all of the personal data that i have submitted.

like for instance, may i reduce my age in applications for ID cards, drivers license, passport for travel, bank account opening and most importantly after graduation, may i be able to significantly reduce my age in the pursuit of employment. wud my employers not find out my true age from my university? is it possible they contact the institution and get a hold of my real age?

the point is that my university is the one that has in record of my true age. wud it be possible to reduce it in my other official engagements out there hence forth, without them finding out from the skool.

pls NL, i need all the pieces of advice and recommendation that i cud get.

PLS...matured advice.

bro,first I va to commend u for being honest.The answer to ur question z very straightforward, if u eventually change it,it myt cum up to halt u later in d nearest future regardless of d fact DAT u look younger than ur age intells. Can I ask u a question DAT I feel may convince u beyond all reasonable doubt dat ma aforementioned point/reason supplies u d answer. Now,if u summit ur CV to companies or organisations u apply for,will ur certificate and results in d university not portray u as being a lier?,and hu knows,u myt end up being jailed.Even if u successfully get a job witaot being caught,won't u retire?Will nemesis not eventually catch up with you?

THNK U VERY MUCH. I APPRECIATE

Bro, I will advise you change it asap. Start using affidavit or collect a certficate from population office nearest to you to show your new choosen dob. . We all have a story to tell but the future should also be secured.

Adjust dates on your CV. Millions of people are culpable of this, its no biggie bro...your future is at stake..No qualms and always keep your real age to yourself only.
