Lolz. Well I learnt German up to A2 at Goethe Institute. Anyway, I could still better my sentence construction especially mit the "dass" keyword und It's usage.

Frankly speaking, a native german would understand by reading this but may find it hard to comprehend by listening. Why you could see some fault was because you learnt it in a german environment. It would have been the same if I enjoyed the same feat. But you know, from Goethe institute, the next noise behind you is "Obalende" 50 naira bus... enter with ya change oo

But with time, all go pure.

Bit William, you gats come do some write ups oo. At least we would like to hear your own side of the deutschland dream.

Oga, I am not here to argue with you. But what you were referring to as seal in your previous write up was out of it. I uploaded two photos to differentiate to you the difference between seal and stamp some schools or uniassist are demanding from us. Stamp is stamp and seal is seal. As for your lawyer friend, let him laugh till tomorrow all he wants, cause been a lawyer will not make uniassist or the schools wave their requirements and procedures. He might also be ignorant of the subject under discuss cause been a lawyer alone is not enough for you to know more than what people that offering their selfless service here have in their disposal; make he pocket him lawyer, i get them plenty. Shalom

WOOD MOUNT RUBBER STAMPS are basic wood handle stamps that are used in conjunction with a stamp pad.
SELF-INKING RUBBER STAMPS are mechanical stampers which have their own internal stamp pad. Self-inkers are re-inkable and great for multiple stamping.

Am trying to do notary public in federal high court

Am surprised no one wants to help, they said they can only certified as true original with a stamp

But my school demand for a seal

A private notary is very expensive I don't have the fund for that.. 5 k per document

Seyi, I will still re-iterate my prayer to you..
God bless you real good bro. I have never been wrong choosing you as my right hand man.. (no let your head dey swell ). Maybe we go end up as Merkel lawyer, so we fit dey maga some pipu

But truth of the matter is this: Some pipu needs to go back to school to do some more learning (Most especially english language). Imagine someone had to consult a dictionary to convince us about seal/stamp. and them say na over sabi book dey worry us. Issokay. As for me, I dont need to consult the dictionary at least for issues like this, neither do I need to inform a charge and bail lawyer to educate me on what has been written everywhere on Uni-assist and some respective school's website



Oga, If english is your problem, that's none of my business but telling me na over sabi book dey worry me shows you are not "well-cultured". most times, you give out wrong information & advice and when we try correcting you, you take it down south. whereas, your case and duel with the German embassy is still fresh in our RAM memory. we wont bring that further cos its of no need. So bros, biko wise up and be mindful of your public conduct.


Aufwiedersehen !

I have read its content and there really isn't anything to it. It shouldn't scare you because worse is going on in Nigeria and still people are getting jobs daily. Your primary concern is to get the education first, finish with a good grade and then start the search. I haven't been here long but I have already seen three (make that 4 if i include my Indian acquaintance) people that graduated last summer and winter semesters and already have jobs. I was told one was actually posted to Amsterdam to work on a project. The funny part of it is that we were were both struggling with our german in the A1.2 class in January, so I know for a fact that his german isn't good (and he is not a programmer).

So my 2 cents is that you take things one step at a time. Finish your studies with a reasonable grade and then start worrying about how to get a job.

I think it's time for me to share my 6 months experience in Germany(Tübingen) to be precise. Please, note that I am only sharing what I have experienced so far in Tübingen. Students in other cities especially the bigger cities may not have similar experience. Let me use the same format lmuhopeful used:


1. Education: Studies here has been really nice and very tough. I'm currently studying MSc in Management and Economics. There are only one University in Tübingen which is the famous/prestigious University of Tübingen. The University spread across the length and breath of the entire city. There is no where you will go in Tübingen that you will not feel the presence of the University. Our professors here are very brilliant and smart. Educational system in Germany is highly intensive. If you are going for any Economics or Finance related courses you have to be very good in calculations. In fact very good is just an understatement you have to be extremely good in Maths. Be prepared to see some Mathematical symbols you have never came across in your entire life. And also try as much as possible to learn/improve on your computer skills. Be also prepared for presentations. I have 3 individual presentations to carry out this semester. I did two last semester they were fantastic. I never knew that I will be able to get it right because I was not used in making public speech. Exams are really tough here and grading system here is different from what we have in Nigeria. Professors don't award marks easily you have to work very hard to earn your grades. The marking scheme here is absolutely strict. To score a 1.0 here you need 95% and above. In general anything from 2.5 and below is considered good especially if an institute is doing high quality research like lmuhopeful rightly said.

2. Housing/Accommodation: Living in student dormitory is cheap you can get an accommodation shared/flat for 208, 217 Euros etc in old buildings. There are a lot of ancient buildings here dated back to the time of Johann Wolfgang Goethe and Martin Luther the reformer. If you want to live in the same building Goethe lived when he was writing his poetry it is possible and also from 245Euros for accommodation in skyscrapers. Private accommodation are a little bit expensive but not as in big cities.

3.Transportation: Tübingen semester ticket is not encouraging at all. Stuttgart is just 30km which is less than one hour drive by bus or train yet our semester ticket does not even cover Esslingen let alone Stuttgart. In fact Barden Wuttemberg semester tickets are like that. You can only enjoy semester ticket in this state if you are studying in a big city like Stuttgart and semi-big cities like Mannhiem, Kalshure, Freiburg etc. If you want to get a VVS semester ticket that covers Stuttgart you will be spending close to 400Euros which is not worth it.

Student Jobs: If you are coming to Tübingen with the hope of getting a student job you better have a rethink. There are no companies here. Tübingen can be best described as a rural area. Getting a job in few restaurants around is extremely difficult. Tübingen is a university village where 2 out of every 3 people you see on the streets are students. Tübingen is such a boring town. Loneliness want kill me here ooo!. You can hardly find Nigerians here except for few Nigerian refugees. There are very few Nigerians here. There are also not too many blacks in this school. From time to time you can only come across 1 or 2 Nigerians studying here. But if you are coming to Tübingen with the sole aim of studying, I can assure you that you will get the very best of education here because Tübingen is a world-class university. Some of the best professors in Europe are here. An ex-president of Germany (Horst Köhler) is also here as one of my professors.

People: What I have seen here is not encouraging. Tübingen is not a friendly town. People here are not friendly I don't know if it's because Tübingen is relatively a small town. I have been to Stuttgart and Frankfurt people are more friendly there than in Tübingen. Sometimes they will be looking at you as if you are an Alien from another planet. A friend of mine who is in Engineering faculty often complained of racism in his faculty. No one wants to sit with him in the class. No one wants him in their assignment group. I was lucky to have few German friends in my department that are liberal minded. They are more than nice to me. I happened to be the only black in my faculty but was lucky to have those great German guys as friends.

Food: Since I came here I have never bought cooked food outside. I have always prepared my own food at home by myself. It helps you to minimize cost if you can be able to be cooking/preparing your own meal. Their own foods self no dey hungry me. This people wey dey chop bread like say tomorrow no dey. They have different verities of Bread. More than 50 or more different kind of breads. There are African shops here where you can get food items like Yams, Plantain, Beans, Fish, Meat, Egwusi, Ogbono, Okra, palm oil etc, but they are not cheap oooo!

Babes: Hmmmmn! Like I said before this is not a friendly town. This people discriminate a lot. They even discriminate against other whites let alone blacks. But it may be a different experience in bigger/International German cities. So if na babe you want come here come find be ready to work extra hard for it. And also be prepared to face so many rejections you maybe lucky at last sha! As some people were lucky to find one in the long-run. If you are a lady, I don't really know because I haven't seen whites guys going out with the few black girls that are here.

African People: There are few Africans here are they are really nice. Some people will tell you not to get close to Nigerian refugees that are here. Well experience differs, Almost all the Nigerian refugees I met here are very nice people they see me as their brother and have always been willing to help they don't even discriminate on basis of tribe. They have been really helpful even more than the 2-3 Nigerians studying here. I know of a Nigerian student that did not drop his tribalism behind in Nigeria. He brought his tribalism here with him. Aduro is the popular name given to those refugees. But this Aduro people are very very nice to me I don't know about other Nigerian students experience ooo!.

German language: The language is as important as the degree you are coming here to acquire. You need the language to be able to interact effectively with people here even if it's broken/basic German. I will also advise anyone coming to Germany to get at least a B1 language proficiency before boarding that plan. Life can be extremely difficult here without the language.
