Please, how do I know where my passport is.

I was approved in Abuja and selected Lagos for delivery.

It's more than 10 working days and I haven't seen any notification.

solihp:
The timeline varies. I had one person being approved Thursday, issued Friday, and the passport was ready for pickup on Monday on oisservice website.

But the other was approved on a Tuesday, issued on Wednesday, we kept checking on oisservice website and the passport was not ready for pickup until the next Tuesday. Because she needed the passport urgently, she went to OIS Abuja location to use the premium service since it says her passport was in Abuja without appointment, and they told her the passport had been ready for almost a week even though they didn’t update the website. She was able to pick it up without appointment. Note: on her profile, she wanted to use the free DHL service in Abuja but they didn’t send it there in time.

Were you able to login? Went black as how? I don't understand your point here. Can you screenshot it here please. Because I don't understand this your dashboard went went black

Travel › Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by sojimade(m): 8:55pm On Jan 27, 2025

I only inserted it once and the whole dashboard went blank.

I haven't been able to access the payment section ever since and when I try to create a new application it says "Duplicate application for this user'

wadijoo:
The payment Ref No start with OIS/date of payment/1234.. and whenever you insert it it will be logging you out instantly and you try like 3times... With that in the next 24hrs you should be able to move to the appointment scheduling page.

Or how did it go whenever you inserted the Bank ref no?

Travel › Re: Usa Visit Visa Part 5 by sojimade(m): 8:20pm On Jan 27, 2025

Yes. I did that.

wadijoo:
After making the payment, do they generate a Ref. No for you to insert on the AVITS page after the payment. Because that's what you can use get to the next stage of your appointment. If not I think there is an error somewhere else

I can't access the payment platform again. I can generate a new amentum number. My dash board is just blank and when I try to create new application it says 'Duplicate application'

I'm having the same issue. Only promises of escalation anytime I managed to speak with an agent but nothing is being done yet.

osadestiny:
Hello, is there anyone who paid the visa fee in November 2024 and still haven’t passed the pre-approval stage for Lagos? I am still experiencing difficulties with my sister application because she is still in the pre-approval stage since November 20th. I have sent the consulate emails and raised multiple tickets but to no avail nothing has changed. It’s so disheartening that things can be this rough on the AVITS website and this people don’t care about fixing the problem.

Travel › Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by sojimade(m): 2:02am On Jan 26, 2025

Hello Everyone,

I need help. I've made MRV payment since November through FBNonline and it's yet to be validated till now. I can't access the appointment scheduling platform.

I've raised tickets, sent emails to Nigeria@avits and lagosNIV@state, called the customer care and used the chat box. They all promised to escalate and I can't see the result.

Please who knows how this can be resolved.

Thank you.

Web Developers are serious minded programmers. They develop, create, manufacture, innovate and write codes.
They know how the codes work and how it could be improved. They are not wordpress or blogger kids that call themselves bloggers because developers actually make the plugins, the themes etc that the kid bloggers keep installing.

A web designer just knows the beauty of combining colors and sizes to look appealing on the outside ( Frontend) they are specialist in CSS and may be Javascript. But most times, any developer also knows CSS just that they may not combine the colors well as someone who knows color combination.

maximunimpact:
There is a huge difference between a web developer and a web designer. A web designer is concerned with the visual design of a website using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. While a web developer gives the website life by using programming language like PHP, python, android, java etc to give the site functionality.
U can liken a web designer as a bricklayer the builds the structure of a house while the developer does the finishing.
A web designer is lower in web industry while the developer goes steps further. A developer can design but a web designer can hardly develop.
So for your question start with learning the design aspect - HTML, CSS and JavaScript then graduate into learning programme languages which will ultimately make you s web developer.
In summary
Web designer - front end
Web developer - back end, server side

Relationship isn't about procreation alone. The Lady shouldn't have fallen for that trick...agreeing to get pregnant for a guy you don't even know his Mom. but life happens...if she's financially stable, I'll advise she keeps the baby. Only God knows what the future holds. The guy might eventually stage a come back on his knees.

Sports › Remember The Nigeria Vs India Match That Ended 99-0? by sojimade(op): 12:52am On May 04, 2015

Here’s Everything You Should Know

Virtually everybody born before the invention of the
internet must have heard the tale of a nonexistent
football match between Nigeria and India that obviously
took place in a parallel universe and somehow we got
to hear the gory stories of that match.

Though there are many variations of the story, every
prevaricator seems to agree on a couple of facts about
this fictional football match. Each storyteller agrees
that;

1. This match ended with India scoring 99 goals and
Nigeria scoring just one goal.

2. Nigerians where unable to kick the ball because the
football kept turning to a lion (or something scary) to
prevent them from playing the soccer ball.

3. The Indians later agreed that if Nigeria could score a
goal, they would concede defeat

4. Samuel Okwaraji scored the winning goal and lost
his life in the process.

5. FIFA banned India from soccer because they used
black magic in that very game

With the help of common sense (not that it was absent
back then), quick access to information and the
internet, every right thinking Nigerian has come to
realize that such a story should be filled under “Blatant
Lies”.

Politics › One Lagos Is The Answer by sojimade(op): 9:21am On Apr 08, 2015

The late Sardauna Sir Ahmadu Bello once said the Igbos have a domineering tendency, that if you put them in labourers camp they will want to emerge as the headman of that camp. I discarded his opinions then, thinking he's one of the leaders trying to divide Nigeria along ethnic lines. Shortly after he made the statement, he was murdered in the 1966 coup by an Igbo man.

With the recent happenings in Lagos, I'm forced to reassess my position on the statement he made. Now I believe he has enough reasons to say so.

Before I proceed, I would like to say here that I'm not being tribalistic either, my neighbours are Igbo and we have a strong mutual respect for each other. And I can never support raising arms on them to inflict injuries on them or rob them of their lifes. But yet....the scores have to be settled.

Before the advent of colonial masters, Lagos has been in existence with an Oba administering their affairs. Taking a critical look at their culture, way of life and mode of dressing it is not far from neighboring kingdoms in Oyo, Ogun and Ondo states. Looking at her geographical location too, Lagos is surrounded by Yoruba states, the lagoon and Yoruba speaking tribe in Benin Republic.

The influx of Europeans into Lagos in the 1800s made it a beehive of economic activities and vital location In their inglorious slave trading business. When Nigeria got her independence in 1960, it is no doubt that she's the most developed city in Nigeria and consequently became the Federal Seat.

These factors saw other tribes migrating into Lagos in a quest for greener pasture. It now looks as if the Igbos in Lagos have gotten their greener pasture and they are so full that they feel the next thing they can do to gain satisfaction is to chase out their host and assume control over them.

I should also point out at t his juncture that I have strong reservations for what the Oba said, but being the Yoruba boy that I am, I will never support that the Oba retract his statement. An Oba gives orders, he doesn't opine.

It also on this juncture that I urge Igbos in Lagos to desist from navigating the political terrain of that state, they should face the business they've come to do. And if the political ingenuity in them wouldn't let them rest, their villages are their for them to display their political talent.

Let's give mutual respect to each other and know our boundaries. What WAR can do, PEACE can do better. We've come too long to split up now.

One Nigeria is the Answer.
