What about students in Hungary, you don't have work permit as an international student in Hungary, what do you expect of them there. huhhuhhuh
Stay there asking questions. It is a foolish man that puts himself in a situation where he has no options.
When hunger bites, they either have to hustle or go home.

lol

Again you never ready chop. You need to fix your mentality. You don't sound like you were ever hungry. Otherwise when hunger waya you, and landlord corner you, then you will know that the hustle is real.

I worked fulltime during my final year at Uni...and I knew people then who worked 2 jobs and still finished with 1st class and 2:1.
Oga stop blowing breeze!!!
I've been there….done that… i'm not fooled for one second.

Guy please stop trying to read meaning into what you know nothing about.

1 RSSDA have students in their final year, second year, first year some in colleges.

2 RSSDA have students doing their MSC

none of them, I repeat, none of them have been paid in the last 6 months, I don't know what you are trying to form a DETECTIVE for.
shuo! you made the post below (see the bolded) when i challenged you on why you lot could not get a part time job. so i dont understand why your BP is rising grin grin

Well, since you've now admitted and changed your story that MOST of you lot are not in colleges, can you guys get a job then? grin
Lazy bunch ! grin Some people paid their way all through university - tuition, accommodation and feeding and you are here crying and moaning over unpaid 'allowance''. mscheww!

IamZinah:
Do you know that most of them are doing their first/foundation year in a college in the UK and under the UKBA Tier4 visa guidelines, they are not expected to work.

Now what about students in places like Hungary where they are not permitted to workhuh

Imagine someone saying here that it's not possible to work and earn enough to survive and pay tuition in the UK.

As if people don't do that in Nigeria sef.

20 hours a week at minimum wage is around 120 pounds a week or 480 pounds a month.

Are you saying you can't survive as a student on 480 pounds a month especially if you live outside London?

Moreover, if as a student you don't know you should be working double those hours, then you never ready chop.

Dey there make pant wear you.
am sure you probably schooled where rents cost less.
I school in Manchester, and rent my rent is £97 per week.

PS. most people unlike you adhere to rules. "20 HOURS"

My Tuition is 12,000 pounds.

Tell me how a student can raise that alone, and also save for accommodation, feeding and transport, from taking part time jobs.



You just exposed yourself that you know NOTHING about what you were saying.


Use google and show me any part time job that pays up to 12k pounds annually or you want them to start illegal and shady business so they get into problem with the immigration and police.

If I could be fixing tiles in Nigeria while still in school and paying my fees back then, then these persons have no excuse. My God!!! They are abroad right? Lazy students.

Depends on what your visa says. Some visas prevent you from working at all in some countries.

Canada eh? If I were a student I would love to study there...they allow students to work. Same for the US.

It has been 6 months ever since we last received our allowance for upkeep and rent. Students in Czech Republic got their studies terminated today due to unpaid tuition. Some students in the UK also face risk of their studies being terminated
Go on twitter and cc SaharaReporters as well as your govt officials. That will help miles more than Nairaland ever can.

There is nothing wrong with governments giving scholarships to students abroad. That has been the case for years....especially in educationally disadvantaged Northern states...who sponsor their students heavily....both at home and abroad.

The issue is education funding....which is linked to the fact that thanks to Nigeria's dependency on oil...we may not have enough money for anything....especially education.

Which is why I am angry with many of our state governors for doing nothing to diversify the economy of their states. Doing so would enable them to have cash galore to meet their financial needs. But many Nigerians and their leaders seem to have this idea of the economy as one big unlimited national cake....when it is really the equivalent of a N100 loaf of bread...which has already been devastated by the looterants.

Nigeria must diversify.Oil is a curse.
There is everything wrong with it.

If our educational system was of standard nation wide, there wouldn't be need to attach any importance to schooling out of the shore of this country.

They should develop our education system here and give everyone of us opportunity to a standard education instead of sending a few abroad and spending unnecessary money to keep them there.

Sebi dem don kukuma pursue some commot from school now which is a disgrace to Nigeria as a whole.

And we keep wondering Why all these countries look down on us?

Canada? some of you just come here and talk out of ignorance. Hope you heard the tales of those two Rivers girls in Canada that were almost deported because they worked for two weeks in a shopping mall. Majority of you think once you enter ABROAD everything is rosy, jobs everywhere.

Even talking about sending cars home.


Your mentality speaks much about you. No offence
Re: Rivers Students Cries Out Over 6 Months Unpaid Allowances by 735i(m):
OP

Unfortunately; many people on this thread don't have a passport; talk more of a visa.. But they'll be the ones to make you believe you can build a house in Nigeria whilst schooling abroad.

You may have to find some other way to come together as a group and draw the attention of the Nigerian press to your plight. You should also consider using social media. You must speak up…and loudly too.

It is an irresponsible government that makes commitments and fails to live up to it.

Cc; Justwise…. Please is there anyway you could be of help?

Abajo...this one is a newbie. 2 bed flats in new builds just behind piccadilly station only cost around 600 a month, and discerning students sublet sef.
Your mates move out to bolton, oldham, warrington and stockport to get cheaper accomodation. Cheap cheap accomodation full salford so it's on you paying 97 quid a week to live in halls. That alone tells me that you're not ready to budget.

p.s I graduated in 2008 so you're talking to an igboro here grin

As you know, you cant start without having paid a sizable percentage(usually 50 percent) of your tuition fee, so the target amount to work towards is always going to be a lot smaller than what you quoted. When you bear in mind that the first 10,000 pounds in income each year is tax free, you begin to realize how much room you have to manouevre if you're serious about budgeting

No job is a joke... The salary can be managed.. The students should stop living above their means..
This is not a matter of living above one's means. Even basic essentials (rent, transport, feeding) requires at least a minimum amount.
They are there to study, combining that with working is going to be a distraction. I am not saying people don't work & school at the same time but my point is their assumption before leaving Nigeria is that they would be given an allowance; if they were sponsoring themselves then they would already know they may need to work whilst studying.

In any case, they should be paid their allowance, that's my own.

This hustle hustle you keep saying, please explain what you mean oh. Are you saying people should start doing jobs without valid permits? This is not Nigeria where anything goes. The repercussion would be deadly if they go down that route and are found out.

A lot of you are spoiled kids who have grown used to relying so much on mummy and daddy, that they don't know how to stand on their own two feet.

The OP is here complaining about a government that did not and probably will not live up to it's responsibilities, instead of going out hustle to put food on the table and money in his account.

So if the Government doesnt pay up for another 6 months, is the OP saying he will just sit at home moaning? Or go out and do what he has to do to survive?

slow down on the hyperbole ma.

The worst that can happen is deportation. Now you tell me which is better.

Sit on your hands and starve while keeping your visa? Or go out and look for work to survive at the risk of deportation?

Ahhhhh shocked so you want them to take the risk of DEPORTATION! Do you know the consequences is beyond just being deported, they would probably get a number of years ban besides not finishing their education.

On my visa, they gave me only 10 Hrs PW

I can't exceed that else the immigration comes for me.

you pay 50% if you are being sponsored by your parents or some persons other than the government. if you are being sponsored by the government all you need do is provide a sponsorship letter as a prove. Guy, get your facts right.
