Ment. All the big churches are in Lagos. Have they been islamised yet? Na ment? A good brain would know that since Tinubu didn't islamise his wife and Lagos, he won't islamise anyone. Stop limiting politics and competency to religion.

Like, you could see the high strides which Tinubu achieved in Lagos such as his legacies which include Lekki seaport, lekki trade zone, BRT, Eko Atlantic, BRT terminal, high increase in Lagos revenue even at the time Obasanjo withheld Lagos allocation for several years yet Tinubu made Lagos' thrived regardless. But rather than look at these, you're limiting Tinubu to his religion. How is Peter Obi who's got no achievement whatsoever better than Tinubu's enormous legacies in Lagos? Na ment? Tinubu is a first class graduate of accounting whereas Peter Obi is only a D pass graduate of philosophy.

Also, Tinubu is the most liberal leader who always ensure he brings in intelligent talents to nurture and work with him, irrespective of their religion or Tribes. People such as Fashola, Sanwo Olu, Osinbajo, Igbokwe etc..

Point is most Muslims in the southwest are different from the Northern Muslims. They don't allow religion to cage them. Personally, I hope for when religion would only be limited to home and religious houses because that's where it belongs. By limiting religion to only homes and religious houses, this would create more secular carefree avenue for people to use their brain to think outside of the box and improve their environment. Religion or non religion shouldn't be a determinant in any of our settings. Competence should always be championed and should be the main determinant.

Now on the question why Tinubu chose a Northern Muslim despite being a Muslim. It's a political strategic move. He chose a Northern leader from the core North which happens to be a Muslim since almost all the Northern leaders are Muslims anyway.

You all know that most of the leaders in the South are Christians while Muslims are the majorities in the North. Let imagine for example that a Northern Christian happened to get the presidential ticket of a huge platform, who do you think he would choose as his deputy in the South? Of course a popular Southern who may eventually end up being a Christian. Why? Because majority of the leaders in the South are Christian hence choosing one of the popular Southern leaders could end up being a Christian. That was exactly what Tinubu did. It's a political strategic move.

That's why religion shouldn't be a determinant in any settings because it's only a personal thing. Imagine if Shettima was only seen as a Northern Nigerian while Tinubu was seen as a Southern Nigerian. That already balanced the equation and criteria needed instead of bringing in religion into the prism. Point is when you look at Europe, American and Canada, they don't care about your religion whether you're Christian, Muslim or Atheist. What they care about is your competence irrespective of your religion. You wouldn't care about the religion of a doctor who's to operate on you but his competence. Religion shouldn't be a ticket for you to get your way out of your incompetence and I'm talking about Peter Obi who achieved absolute nothing in his Anambra state.

Meanwhile, I believe Tinubu chose Shettima as his deputy because Zulum was Shettima's protégé. Zulum would have been the perfect fit but he wanted a second term as a governor hence Shettima. This isn't about religion.

Replying with my church mind.

I am aware your initial post is in the future tense, so I will respond appropriately.

The visit visa allows you to temporarily visit the US for tourist purposes. As a tourist, you aren't expected to work and earn income. Uncle Sam doesn't like anyone that much, that he loses tax.
At your interview, a VO will ask how long you wish to be on holiday doing tourist things. Most people have a 3-4 week break from work or even school, and they use this time to travel. That's why a lot of people say three weeks. You can say one week or two weeks or even four weeks.
The visa is a multiple entry visa allowing you to enter the US multiple times within two years. You can't stay in the US at once for two years or one year.
At a US airport, CBP will stamp your entry into the US, and also give you a date by which you have to have left the US. They push this date 6 months forward, in case something happens and you can't leave as at when you planned to leave. It is usually something serious. It is assumed that 6 months or less is enough to have resolved it. (Motor accident. Legal case. Fell sick big time etc).

If you do get a visa, travel to the US, get stamped for 6 months, and decide to work for one year before leaving the US. The truth is nothing will happen to you THEN ONLY.

It is when you want to travel to the US again on that same visa, with the remaining one-year entry, that CBP will deny you entry at the airport, cancel the visa and deport you. Then the reapply portion below applies too.
If you don't travel again, and the visa expires. By the time you go to the embassy to renew, they will call your attention to the overstay of one year, try to establish you took up a job, and then penalize you by refusing your visa and adding a ban (3 years, 5 years, 10 years) before you can apply again to the US.

There is a rule of don't work with a tourist visa.
There is a rule of don't overstay or go out of status.

Documents are dropped at the consulate. Also, only applicants can drop the documents or a member of the family if applying together.

Parents are allowed to drop for their minors/kids though

Donlino1992:
You have to keep checking 3 times a day. Between 9am to 11am. They usually release new date around this time. Or better still join the Telegram group.

Newsolutions:
This is your interview date

Dampops:
Was your name written on what he sent to you? Did you tell him to get you interview waiver or interview dates?

Comradewhy:
That will be the worse of all, why can't Russia realize that no country in the world can prosper effectively without USA,you just can't.
Is there really anything going on around the world that USA doesn't know about?
