PoliticsRe: Governor Wike Dares IPOB Members To Harass Him Whenever He Travels To Europe by Silverpurple: 6:38am On Nov 03, 2020
OfoIgbo:
So you cannot see this Ikwerre governor that is attempting to exterminate the Igbo LGA of Oyigbo.

Brutal vengeance must descend on Wike. If any group wants to defend Wike, that group will be seen as complicit in the massacre of their fellow Niger Deltans at Oyigbo.
My brother, please read carefully about South Sudan...they recently split from Sudan in 2011 after similar struggle like IPOB.

Or infact read about any black country, that ever split from another black country in the history of mankind.


The emphasis here is "black". Don't be tempted to think you are immune from the black jinx.

ArrestWike:
Empty threat by a thug. He locked down Ikoku motor parts in P.H and that's the worst he can do. I can bet you that Igbos outnumber ikwerre in P.H and need I remind you that Oyigbo are with us in this and Aba is only a killometers away. It will be a mutually assured destruction and at the end, Federal government will declare a state of emergency and he Wike will be removed & replaced by an administrator (something they won't waste time to do).

If things excalate beyond this, he Wike will be the biggest loser.
Hmmm...red flag. Do you know the last country that successfully split in Africa is South Sudan, they were granted independence in 2011. Till now the South Sudan never get head, dem just dey kill each other from internal crises.

This IPOB country never start, you are declaring war on Ikwerre...

Wahala

OfoIgbo:
Igbo properties in PH are as vulnerable as Ijaw or minority properties in PH. In fact Igbo properties could even be safer.

Second point is that Wike is Ikwerre. Anyone that wants to taste oblivion with him can be our guest.

Ikwerres won't be getting involved. Much of Ikwerre land is as pro Biafran as OYIGBO.
Also the Rivers state Igboids plus the migrant Igbos in Rivers state outnumber the Ikwerres anyway, so nothing will happen, thanks to the boundary readjustments of the 70s that added considerable Igbo areas to Rivers state.

Obigbo people are our brothers, and if Ikwerres can't call Wike to order, then Igbos in general will exert brutal vengeance on Wike. The bounty on Wike stands
The IPOB country has not started, see what you are saying about Ikwere people...lol

Do you know how many tribes are in Naija Delta?

Black man and wahala...I'm my opinion, I feel the tower of babel in the bible was built by black people. When they come together, they can challenge God, maybe that is why we are cursed to be scattered. Trust me when IPOB country start, you will also hear Anambra is better than Imo. Even within Imo you will here X is better than Y.

This is same with ALL black cultures in the world...the curse of the tower of babel.
PoliticsRe: Military Operation In Oyigbo, Rivers State Leads To Humanitarian Crisis - by Silverpurple: 4:54am On Nov 02, 2020
ello29:
The militarization of oyingbo and use of force is not the best way to solve civil issues rather they create more problems and fear to the citizenry.
How can the military gain intelligent report from the people? The military should find a better way to handle the issue instead of compounding the issue we can't afford to create another tension and terrorist war in the south.
How is killing 5 soldiers a civil issue? Oyigbo IPOB killed 5 soldiers, stole their gun and hilux.

According to the rules of engagement, the army is authorised to use violence. They know this...

Wear that woman that said she is the mother. Let her come and oppose it.


Solomon only had to look at the contenance of both ways women and gave the child to the one that looked grieved the most.

look at this boy v. The other woman claiming mother and tell me who look like they lost something
The woman in the video seemed like she was more concerned about dividing Nigeria than her son who had just died. I suspected something was wrong then. She mentioned remove Buhari and divide Nigeria more than the death of the son.

There also no sadness in her face...A mother who lost child, would not be that calm...

Not only Igbos, the last time a soldier was killed in OSun state. during the ife-modakeke war, that was what ended the war.
There are uninformed youths there that convinced themselves to kill military men. I suspect the military is making that area a deterrent to anybody that might want to do it again in the country.

I hope peace returns.

Don't move yet. Melbourne just lifted quite a number of restrictions. You can start to plan your move by January 2021.

Meanwhile, you can start to apply for jobs that catch your fancy from now. You could get one. Check Seek and Indeed Australia websites.
Many thanks for you honest feedback. I was actually looking at landing in Syndey, what do you think about this. It has about same opportunities as Mel on job sites. I have also started applying for jobs. My plan now is to get to the town by March 2021.

alakara:
pls, how can I be a software developer or engineer, I don't have any computer science knowledge.
Hello Sir,

You will need to learn CS, it's the building blocks. Not necessarily all CS but basics like algorithm, data structure, etc. Then you can move into any language to solve problems. Popular languages like Python, JS, C#, etc. After gaining confidence in a language, you can move to framworks which enables you to build solutions faster using previously written codes in the chosen language. The final stop will then be a stack, which is a combination of tech framworks and languages. Voilà, you are a developer..

Try many free resources online...youtube, Udacity, Cousera, etc.

Rosunkeye:
hi, pls can you give us the breakdown and step by step process. I’ve read and read and digested the whole process... I’m in dilemma. A DIY explanation would go a long way.
I will try to be brief.
1) You will need to get you English assessment. I did IELTS. Aim to get 8 in all segments.

2) Chose an occupation that matches your supporting documents. For Software Engineer (261313), all required documents are on ACS website. This just shows that you have formal training I.e. certificate and transcript (Bsc in top Federal University or any related Engineering Bsc is better). They also need you to show that you have the right work experience, I.e. payslip, etc.

3) Once you are done with assessment. You are good i'll say. Other factors that will help you is if you spouse has competent English. This would be minimum of 6 in IELTS. Another factor that will help is age. Less than 35 is best.

4) You then put in your documents in the skill-select website and hope you get ITA. The higher the point, the better.

5) Once you are nominated, you will need to do medicals and apply for Visa. This will cost some money so be prepared. I paid about 6kAUD I think...

6) After applying, you just wait till you get an email with a letter saying you are granted. This is where I am now.

Pardon my typo....Thanks.

Hi Silverpurple!

Congrats on getting the PR. You are a Software Engineer and your skills are definitely transferrable, anywhere in the world.
I would advice you take the move. Pending when you leave Nigeria, you could begin the application process for jobs there while still looking out for possible remote jobs online.

Good luck!

You decided to go through the hassle of securing a visa not just any visa, PR visa. You made up your mind to do it. Now that you have the visa, you are here asking people what to do.

Throw your passport away


How I dislike threads like this.
Hello bros/sis, it's not like that. No need for confrontation. I am only particular about the Covid-19 lock down effect on the economy, and how easy it will be to get a job and assimilate under this condition. No one could have planned for Covid-19.
