It's been quite difficult o, but I've learnt and mastered some tricks which I will share.

1. I have 3 children, all under 10 so what I do now is to buy cereals, milk and milo in paint bucket. A paint of milk is 7500 and can last for 2 months compare that to the tin or sachet and you'll note a massive difference (its factory produced so the quality is the same as the one you see in stores)
2. Cook in bulk to reduce gas cost and store in small freezer plastic bags. Thank God power has been quite constant
3. Next term, I plan to change the kids school fees to one closer to our house to cut off school bus fees. I've done my due diligence and I have found one that has exceelnt standard albeit more expensive than their current school
4. No more going out unnecessarily. Work, home, run errands, church finish. Better to call people to stay in touch, rather than have them turn up suddenly on top say they wan greet una.
5. Other things sha

My sister, please more details on that paint bucket for milk and milo part. Abeg these kid must not lack protein source. How do l get it. Thanks

Hello guys... You guys are simply amazing! Every information up here was useful and thankfully, I received my grant today, 11th of July.

Visa Application Lodged: 1st of June

Biometrics: 9th of June

Medicals: 20th of June

Grant: 11th of July

Class Resumption: 18th of July

It was a "Do it yourself" project, proactively acting on vetted information received here, No agent used, No Contact from CO whatsoever.

*I guess the idea is to make the job easy for the CO, so they see your case file, treat and close-out quickly, moving to the next on queue*

Above all, God pulled it through. Faith-filled prayer truly works. There's absolutely nothing God can't do.

Please didn't your school re-direct you to their agents like most would do?

BSc or Masters?

Lastly, your admission from the school, was it also do-it-yourself? Sorry plenty questions.

afam4life:
It is possible but will costs you more money and I thinks you can't change school from the new rules.

Thanks

afam4life:
Pls wait for ASUU. Do your final year here, so that you can proceeds for masters and when you gets to Australia, you can still go for undergraduate course. This is to avoid the gap from when you finish SSCE till now.

Please is it possible to apply for masters in business or human resources and then on arrival, change to Bachelor in Nursing?

Would it not affect the visa since it was granted based on admission for masters.

Greetings house.

Please is it possible to use agents different from the ones recommended by the university. Would there be any negative implications.

Your response would be valuable.

tunlex01:
No idea. You can reach out to CPA or CAANZ, I believe they assess Associate degree as Bachelor as long as it’s Accounting degree and you are able to provide syllabus etc.
reach out to them to confirm, some of these things may have change from 2 years ago

I will. Thanks

tunlex01:
Bsc Accounting from Unilorin is an Associate degree. Which occupation are you assessing?

Oh thanks...then it won't fly. I'm trying to assess for my wife so l can get 10points from her. She did accounting, l was looking for any associate degree skill she can assess. Everything related to accounting is skill level 1. Thought of office manager but is not on 491. Confused

Any idea?

RockhouseCafe:
Good day house. Please will an accounting Bsc from unilorin be equivalent to Australian Bsc or Associate degree?

@
Tunlex01. Please which Nigerian schools have Bsc that are equivalent to Australia's? Is Unilorin one of them?

Good day house. Please will an accounting Bsc from unilorin be equivalent to Australian Bsc or Associate degree?

Hathor5:
Nothing? Did you read the OP?

Calm down. Read again. He is saying that the man will bring just money but he will not contribute in the home front.

LegendHer0:
Well that’s because you live in Lagos. If I live in Enugu and I marry Igbo woman for example, my kids will most likely speak more of Igbo because that is what they will need daily in Igboland to be able to have a convenient stay.

Now we are talking about USA, a neutral terrain where the first language basically is English. The indigenous language they ask people will be their ethnic one whether Yoruba/Igbo/Edoid languages.

Now if a Yoruba man get married to an Ibo man in USA and they ask the child what is their indigenous language, they might say Yoruba &Igbo or if they only need to say one for the sake of data, some might say Yoruba and some Igbo.

Hence, they will neutralize each other on both sides and they won’t still affect this data integrity.

Trust me if it had been that it was the Igbo that had larger presence than the Yoruba from the USA census, you will never see the Yoruba giving all this excuses you Ibos are giving on this thread. We will simply look away or find other countries where we are much too as our counter argument. Have you guys no shame?

@ bolded: I agree, Igbo Amaka

However, my point is that the report is about most spoken west African languages: Yoruba..

Not the most populous ethnic groups in the US.

They are two different things

[quote author=Jimasun post=107537081]I don't even argue with them. I always laugh at them[/quot


10 most spoken may not mean Yoruba's are more, but that Yoruba as a language is spoke more.

Bear in mind that most Igbo's won't speak igbo. My kid don't and l am only in lagos

gentiles:
But igbos always claim to be the majority in USA

10 most spoken west African...

LegendHero:
OfoIgbo

Remember we argued about this some time ago? Either you or Tobrasky.

Read again.

The following are the 10 most spoken West African languages in the US.

scholes0:
Of the various African languages spoken in U.S Households, only a handful were statistically significant enough to obtain discrete codes and statistical representation. Of the West African languages represented, some such as Yoruba, Igbo and Wolof are stand alone languages, while others such as Edoid, Gbe and Manding languages are linguistic groupings of similar languages. The following are the 10 largest West African languages spoken in America. [/b]The big 3 are:

Yoruba - 149,358
Akan Languages (Incl. Twi) - 141,583
Igbo - 94,788

The other 7 represented languages are:

Manding Languages - 30,381
Wolof - 26,255
Fulah - 18,563
Kabuverdianu - 18,451
Gbe Languages - 17,212
Edoid Languages - 16,699
Ga - 10,542

This report is about the [b]most spoken, not necessarily the number of igbos or Yoruba's in the US.

I married a Yoruba but my kids don't speak Igbo. They speak Yoruba, and l am in Lagos oh. All my childhood friends who live in Australia, Canada and the US, none can boast of have children who speak Igbo even when they married Igbo's too.

We have refused to learn. We left those raw practices that could have been enhanced to our benefits in the hands of those who are not educated.

We could have had developments that will defy western science. Till date, there are things science can't explain, I watched a Ted talk about a white tourist/investigator who went to places to study such spiritual practices, he still couldn't explain it but he was 100% convinced these things work, he also talked about its endless possibilities but then we Africans are sleeping.

Please send a link to the Ted talk

A person's face does not change because they live with another human being for years. This is superstitious nonsense. But you are too stupid to know it.

How were you raised?

Learn to engage without dehumanizing people. This is a fun topic. No space for such strong language. Haba

You should have stopped at the first line

Yes there is a big difference between reading and understanding as ur comment now proves that up till this moment u still don't understand the message, I won't respond to ur comment again after this

My friend!

I am having fun schooling you.

Bow to superior argument and run along... That is what they all do when they realise that they've been bested. You, my friend, are annoyingly deliberate .

LivingTribunal:
You are retardedd, a very stupid person for making this post

Pay him no heed.

His english usage is deficient. He was let down by his poor choice of words and lacks the humility to simply acknowledge it and move on.

Everyone has shown him what message his first contribution passed across, that it was in bad taste.

Even in ordinary WAEC, you could be asked to state a writer's mood or tone of a written work. He is only clever by half.

Kelvin: everyone can't be wrong!

Kelvinhunta:
I never said there is anything wrong in washing clothes for a living, there is always a big difference between reading and understanding indeed. [/b]I was sarcastically referring to him calling [b]all his customers drug addicts and how they will respond to his business.

You:
"U mean u wash clothes for a living? And without drug takers clothes u will stave? I wonder if ur shop would survive if they see this ur post"

Him: "l have found all manners of drugs in the pockets of young people who bring their clothes to my laundry shop".

Yes you didn't expressly say it but your first question implied it.

And @the bolded, you are correct! You need to read, this time slowly to aid your understanding: he didn't call all his customers drug addicts but said: 'l have found all manners of drugs in the pockets of young people'.

For [b]sarcasm, you did a poor job. There is nothing remotely resembling it. In fact, it was a feeble and lame attempt at sarcasm.

You even wondered if his shop will survive when they see his post.
Are you so dumb as to realise that there is no way to associate his physical shop(without mention of address) with a moniker on a faceless forum like Nairaland?

There is always a big difference between reading and understanding indeed!!!

End of Discussion!

Washing clothes for a living is an honourable way to earn a living.

inverseparanoia:

Yes I wash clothes for a living ... honest and dishonest people patronize me. I have found good cash, drugs and many other items which I always return to the owners if they are valuable to them.

Washing clothes for a living is an honourable way to earn a living.

Wash on....solidly behind you.

Tobedated:
wow this is the first time i'll agree with you on something

I swear!

Kobojunkie:
**yawn****

Kobojunkie, your ignorance knows no limit. To have even asked how his mother beating his father should affect him. Really

People can write good English and still be ignorant. Google can help you

Kobojunkie:
Are you a child or something?

What has the decision and mistakes of your parents to do with you as an individual ? You are meant to learn from their mistakes, not perpetuate them.

Please strongly consider growing up!

1. The average American is an ídíot. Outside of the northeast, it's basically village people only while village people are uneducated, Americans are just stúpid.

2. The average American doesn't "understand" people outside their town or region, so there's no reason to believe most can grasp a different culture. And they confirm their ignorance every day regarding other cultures. Their cultural observations are garbage.

3. Oyinbos are deranged, racist m0r0ns. Their opinions on anyone who isn't white can't be trusted. It's like asking what an Arab thinks about Jews.

4. Americans are lazy af, and would rather do anything besides work to make money. That of course includes posting complete bs on YT.

5. It's common knowledge that people post bs on YT. And that people like that oyinbo will film for days or weeks to get the footage they want, and mangle the footage to make it more extreme. If that doesn't work, they'll pay people to fake it.

6. Many Americans are as insecure as they are stúpid. They love spreading lies (and consuming them) about virtually any foreign country, including every European country. It literally bothers them to think that someone will leave the US and enjoy their life, or that people in other countries are happy.

7. Yes, this problem exists. But it doesn't change the fact that oyinbos are notorious liars.

Trash....Absolutely
