Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) is only recognized by Turkey and not by any other country in the world.

I do not know how people cannot do simple research before they move. Go to Limassol in Southern Cyprus and see levels.

I want to get PTA from the bank but they are requesting that I must pay for my return ticket. Although, I have already paid for the going ticket. Please, does anyone know of a bank that will not require me to have paid for the return ticket? Also, if PTA doesn't work, is there a cheaper way to send money to someone's account abroad aside from crypto?

Guy, pay for the return ticket and provide other travel documents including visas. You will be given.

The fellow is over spending. He needs to reorder his finances quickly.

Quinns:
Contact you as travel agent wey u be na.

I already live there.

I keep hearing travellers ...PTA .. school fees .. medical bills...only once he mentioned business...and you said this country is going somewhere...damn it. How do importers get fx..if trading fx is illegal...why do we trade forex..God punish you Emefiele

There is an I&E window (importers, exporters and SMEs). Patronize them instead.

The CBN governor is chasing shadows.

The laws are clear. BDCs are not supposed to sell above a particular price after purchasing from the CBN auction. Why does he not go after the BDC owners and withdraw all their licenses?

He knows BDCs are owned by the same Northerners who put him in the CBN, so he prefers to chase shadows instead.

Faiththatworks:
Mr Emefiele should do the needful and declare bureau d change as an illegal business. Anyone buying or selling forex outside the banks should be treated as a criminal.
To all.those who have made their mind to always criticize Me Emefiele can you please allow the man breathe.
This crazy parallel illegality was established by Gen Babaginda to siphon money out of Nigeria,and closing it down will take some time and balls from any CBN governor.
We all need to support the CBN governor as he cleans the Agusean stable. Currency speculation,Currency trading must be declared an economic crime and anyone caught doing it must be sent to jail.
The CBN governor declared only banks will sell forex in Nigeria some months ago and the heavens didn't fall,even to my suprise,Gen Buhari didn't reverse the decision,that shows the Governor was right in his decision.
For those who are trying to beat the system by using illegal visas to purchase forex,Mr Emefiele must force the embassies to open an hotline or a web portal where the banks can confirm people's visa before selling forex,anyone caught using fake visas to buy forex should be treated as a scapegoat,and charged with currency speculation and fraud.
God bless Nigeria.

Please when were you born? BDCs are in operation in other countries. What was the exchange rate differential between official and parallel markets under Charles Soludo? TWO NAIRA!

So what has changed under Emefiele? He needs to look inwards.

Guys I heard Georgia is one of the many countries on Nigeria free visa list , my inquiry is how can I apply for a Georgia student visa from Nigeria and how is life over there.

What's wrong with you? You wanted Barbados, now Georgia. I asked you to consult me, you refused. You are still roaming around here seeking information you will not get. Georgia is not visa free. So good luck with your search.

Before you leave, ask yourself: what skills do you have that can help you make the transition?

My accommodation where I am is $900 a month. You know for sure that there is no kind of money I will make in Nigeria to support such a lifestyle. You have to make money from foreign sources in foreign currency to live abroad comfortably.

I would advise you to pick up a freelance skill and pursue the relocation. Trust me, there are opportunities. Even my LinkedIn interface is showing jobs that never showed up when I was in Naija. There are opportunities you can never know existed. Wifey who is into digital marketing landed a job the very week we left quarantine.

He wants to japa after participating in extortion, bribery, torture and killings. Na lie. Send him back to the state he helped create.

The 4th Dimension. That book changed my thinking of knowing you can call forth the impossible and make it a reality. RIP Pastor Yonggi Cho,

I have bought two cars online from abroad and about to buy a third and there were no stories whatsoever.

Sorry ma'am, they have collected your hubby... BINI WOMAN DON COLLECT AM.


I can not give you solution here publicly but this is a spiritual battle.... FIGHT HARD... if you truly want him back

Nothing spiritual there.

If the grass is green, will the goats shift location? She has driven her husband away with her bad attitude and sharp mouth.

sup bro, I've checked the welcome stamp thing for Barbados, most one make $50k before he's eligible?

if I have a remote work that pays $1k and some freelance side gig can I apply?

TIA.

If you have $2k at least, you are good to go as a single person. The island is expensive, but everything works. Pipe borne water from the water board flows. No generator in sight as there is electricity 24/7. Pristine beaches everywhere. Hot ladies (if you are into that). People are generally super nice and ready to help. Majority black population so no racism.

Today I was in a PickUp (their ride hailing app) and the driver was blasting Tire by Mayorkun. Men, I shock!

None of the above.

Good day Niralanders,

I need your sincere advice on my present situation.
Please ignore any grammatical error or punctuation. I’m the first son of my family, my father is an average Nigerian trader, he single handedly sponsored my schooling from nursery to higher institution.

After my service year, one of his friends scammed him of 300k in the name of they will get me a job in NUPENG before he paid that money I told him my pastor’s revelation about the NUPENG job, which my pastor said She does not like the job and shared ill references associated to the job with me and I told my dad when I got home, he countered and rebuked the revelation, he doesn’t take any of our advice, he finally fell for the scam.

To cut the long story short, I’m now working class that earn 75k monthly, however I’m still squatting with a friend and I’m still struggling to survive.

Recently I received a call from my dad, he told me he needs 500k for trading, that he wants me to take loan on his behalf he will be paying the debt once it’s due, since he is yet to complete the outstanding loan he took from the same bank, which is remaining 3 months to complete. I later discovered he had another debt he’s still servicing (Paying ) of a different bank that is remaining 6 months to complete.
After pondering over it i asked him; what if he defaults what will happen ? he shunned me and said why will I be negative and I politely told him my mind that I cannot help the current issue. Since then he started reporting me to my mum relatives to talk to in order to accept and collect the loan of 500k on his behalf.

Please your advise on this will be helpful.
Thank you.

You are now an independent person. Tell him a capital no.

ORORO AGAIN!

ORORO AGAIN! GOAAAALLLL!

ORORO don score. GOAAAAAAALLLLLL!

Misleading headline. Citizenship by investment of upwards of 100k dollars in maybe Barbados.
Apart from the super rich how many Nigerians can afford 60 million naira for citizenship?

Barbados does not offer citizenship by investment. You get it by birth. I would know as I live there now.

The 5 countries offering the so-called CARICOM citizenship are:

St. Lucia
Dominica
St. Kitts and Nevis
Grenada
Antigua & Barbuda

Dominica, Antigua & Barbuda and St. Lucia have the cheapest: $100,000 (N53m). Grenada and St. Kitts offer theirs for $150,000 (N75m).

So ask yourself: how many of you here on Nairaland have N53m to spend on a 2nd citizenship?

British Airways to Bridgetown from MMIA via London Heathrow is about $1300 if you book early.

Prepare to face questions at MMIA over the kind of visa you are going with. Also at Bridgetown.

Mine was buried in the village and a tree was planted over it. I really do not know the implications.

I am in Barbados now. I got the Welcome Stamp and moved with my entire family.

Paid for accommodation, health insurance and got a transit visa from the UK. The transit visa application process is very stringent. If you lie on the application, you will be found out. I filled the information, presented all the documents requested and got the visas one hand.

Carrying the e-visa for the Welcome stamp was like carrying a ""get out of jail free" card. Everywhere I was asked at Murtala Muhammed airport, both at immigration and boarding, I flashed it and was waived through with family. We were not even questioned in London Heathrow. No reference to my Nigerian passport. No secondary inspection (even though two Asian guys were pulled out of the queue and searched). We were just waived through with smiles.

Flew there using British Airways via London Heathrow to stay within the 72-hour window for the COVID tests. Was in quarantine with family for a week. Tested again on day 5. Got result on day 7. Now living there as free as a bird.

The location change has been a game changer already. Wifey who is a digital marketing expert that never got a single call from any foreign company is now being inundated with remote job offers. Same with me.

Anyone who wants me to make inquiries for them here, be it work, study, etc can hit me up.

Your brother has fallen into the hands of a church led by a fake pastor. Christ Himself called them ravenous wolves and that they are already among us.

YourNextLevel:
They have started insulting you here and you deserve it very well Pastor.

Your bringing spiritual things to carnal people and you expect them to understand?

Didn't you undergo training ?

THERE ARE ETHICS IN THIS MISSION WE ARE IN.

Happy new week

Please tell him. The things of the Spirit are spiritually discerned and not for carnally minded people because they cannot discern these things.

This Dangote man is starting to bite off more than he can chew.

Jman06:
I don't care the level of fake education you have acquired. All I know is that anybody who still holds on to misinformation contained in books as obsolete and misleading as the bible and quran is daft and not deserving of my respect.

I respect the prophets of old and Jesus Christ. Your respect holds absolutely no value where I am and so you should take your stinking opinions out of my mentions.

babzo:
Wow, what's going on? Is this a Coup? Isnt Adamu visiting Owerri right now?

They have messed him up. Hahaha.

Imagine going to a place on official duty only for you to hear of your removal in the news.

Jman06:
Stop typing trash! Many of you doubted COVID19 and said it was a political tool and all whatnot! I wonder why you have backtracked and accepted that the virus is real.

The other mugu was even saying that God prevented COVID19 from killing more Nigerians, showing us how ignorant he is about the mode of spread of viral infections.

I must continue to attack religious zealots like you on this platform because your ignorance and bigotry contribute to why Nigeria is not making progress in the areas of research and development. Your religious bigotry if not checked now would lead Nigeria into trouble in the future because you'll continue to divert attentions from reality with your religious lies!

Please can you indicate when I ever said COVID-19 was fake. Where? Stop misquoting me! I was abroad when the virus started to wreak havoc so do not tell me nonsense!

I think you are the ignorant one. I am well read and well versed with matters of science, with knowledge accumulated in my 5 decades on earth. I challenge you to pick any topic and let both of us debate it here. Let us see who the ignorant one is.

In case you do not know, I have read several of Karl Marx's books and books written by Kim Il Sung and Deng Xiaoping. I was a hardcore socialist before I became a Christian. There is no level of intellectual discourse you can engage me in where I will not transcend you.

Amotolongbo:
Why didn’t your prayers prevent it?

No vaccines yet for it
But you have being praying night and day against disease such as this.
Aren’t you meant to be shameful that your prayers are useless?

Go and read the book of Revelation. There will be yet more deadly illnesses and pandemics. Just watch out. The next 2 years are highly loaded.

The problem is many of you are so hateful of Christianity and the bible that you do not take time to find out what is happening in your world. Do you know the kind of experimentation with viruses and deadly pathogens being done by the US, China, Russia and other world powers in the last 40 years?

For instance, has Robert Gallo ever disclosed what they were doing in the US Special Virus Cancer Project of the 1960s and 1970s, just before HIV emerged from "nowhere"?

Why did China refuse the WHO access into China to investigate the origins of the COVID-19 virus? Do you know what the Chinese government are cooking in their Biosafety Level 4 laboratory in Wuhan, where this disease broke out? Why did the Chinese government try to silence those who confirmed that a disease had broken out way back in September 2019?

Stop being ignorant. Read and research and prepare for the serious perilous times that are coming. If you think COVID-19 is the worst, think again.

the man is a simp real men don't cry

The stupidity of your statement shows you and your generations are cursed. Either you have no parents or you were made in baby factory.

HorlarJP:
I am in Accra bro

I will taking some pictures from now on
Even though Ghana is not as beautiful as Nigeria but the peace within the country is almost Unrivaled, no police harassment, yet there police are doing there jobs diligently asking for car papers and other thing they need to check and that’s all, haven’t heard about anyone caught stealing nor any cars colliding because even there drivers are in peace and road laws seem important here

Ghana police also take bribes. I have witnessed it first hand when they extorted someone of 100 cedis for not carrying a drivers' license.
