Politics / Re: Ayefele: Ajimobi Said He Would Have Prevented The Demolition If We Had Begged by thattallboi(m): 12:33pm On Aug 25, 2018

Pride goeth before a fall

Are you above those that are begging

Ajimobi is even being considerate

He should have chased you out of Oyo State sef

Cuz rumor have it that you sacrificed your back at the expense of getting quick wealth

You later went as far as building a radio station worth 800m all in the name of intimidating poor people and your fellow less privileged

Quick wealth is not good and my mother have always told me that

At least, we all can see how Ayefele ended his life now

What a show of shame

My prayer is that may we never end our lives like that of Ayefele

You are just displaying your high level of stupidity
People like you should be ostracized from our society

Goodday house... I am a little bit skeptical about making it in time for enrollment .... I have exactly 5weeks and 4days between my visa interview and enrollment deadline.
Based on experiences.. I would like to know if the time window is enough cos the school isn't willing to extend the deadline. Thanks

First school leaving certificate is not listed on German embassy interview check list. Rather what is stated is any biometric document than u used far back like Library card, baptism card immunization card record or any other. What ever that guy experienced at Abuja. He was so shy not to point it out on first questions that it is not listed on the check list.
I do not see why any VO would insist on a document the embassy did not list on the email sent to you or their website. Anyway I wish not to openly oppose that report since accidents, witch Hunt and gross misunderstanding can cause a lot of issues. I know if you should report such to the embassy they will be apologetic. German embassy is not Nigeria government that will demand a different document and ask of another on the meeting with out prior information.
If anyone do not have FSLC do not panic, always point it out to the verifying officer that it is not listed on the check list sent to your email. What matters is what is on the check list not all your life documentary. If you have just add it, no probs. But I know many who are in Germany with out that FSLC. We Nigerians our over meticulous attitude some times create extra huddles for the next generation. I compare this with what I was told before NYSC in 2014 that I need 40 passports and 40 copies of each of my documents. Brethren I still have copies of those passports and documents 4years after service not used up.
Go for your FSLC but if you did not take the exam and entered secondary school don't worry. It is nothing serious as it is not listed on the checking list unless they just added it now.

Please always get your facts right..
It is actually listed just that the waec certificate should suffice. To avoid any issues take your certificate along !!

Hello House,
I had my interview this morning 06/07/2018 in Lagos and thought it wise to share my transcript. The interview lasted less than 15 minutes. The multitude that came for interview today sha. It didn’t get to my turn until 9:20AM
So here is how it all went;

VO: Have you funded?
ME: Not exactly. I haven’t exactly decided whether or not I will use a BA or SL as my uncle is currently processing an SL in Munich for me. So the outcome will determine if I’ll be using a BA or SL

VO: Okay. Please read the information on this form and sign
NB: It was a form containing blocked account confirmation details…

So I read and signed the form then passed it over to her.

VO: Why do you want to study in Germany?
ME: I want to study in Germany because the country has some of the world's top universities for geosciences, which are ranked based on their reputation and research in the field. Also, the educational system is high-class and combines theoretical teaching and practical training with the goal of ensuring a lasting/perpetual innovation. The caliber of scientists and geologists that the country has produced over time is a testament to the quality of education currently being offered in Germany. This is why I want to study there.

VO: Masters or Bachelors
ME: Masters

VO: What is the name of the course?
ME: Masters in Sustainable Mining and Remediation Management

VO: What is the title of your BSc thesis?
ME: Hydrogeological Study of Ekiadolor and Environs. I quickly asked if I should spell “Ekiadolor” for her and she said yes. After typing, I asked her to please repeat the spelling of the same (E-K-I-A-D-O-L-O-R) to be sure it was well spelt and she did.

VO: Why do you want to study this particular course?
ME: The Sustainable Mining and Remediation Management programme is a critical aspect of Geology in which I want to carry out a geoscientific and an environmental research. This area of investigation is a build-up on my undergraduate thesis in Hydrogeology and it will give me the opportunity to conduct a research on the geochemistry of acid mine drainage and its impact on water and earth resources particularly around mining exploration communities. The skills and knowledge to be gained from this programme will readily make me become a better environmental hydrogeologist.

VO: Why not study this course in Nigeria?
ME: The level of infrastructure and the quality of education offered in my home country cannot be compared to that in Germany especially when you consider some of the modules and internships involved in the programme and the fact that a teaching experimental mine is at the disposal of whoever studies this programme at TU Freiberg. Also, the unpredictable nature of education in Nigeria does not guarantee the completion of this kind of programme in record time.

VO: Why not study this course in US, UK and other English speaking countries
ME: A key motivation for me is the level of flexibility of university programmes to meet the research needs of students as well as the affordable nature of education in Germany.
NB: Me and VO go back and forth about this question before we finally agree for this response sha o
If she asks any question that doesn’t carry Germany in it, she will ask you not to mention anything about Germany in your response as well. I no know how to explain the thing pass like this.


VO: What do you know about Germany?
As we reach this question, for my mind I say we die here[b][/b]

ME: Germany is located in the central-western part of Europe
Its capital and largest city is Berlin
Germany has a largely temperate seasonal climate with population of about 82,8 million people
Germany is the most populous member state of the European Union and the second most populous after Russia in Europe
Germany is one of the world’s largest technologically advanced economies and It is both the world's third-largest exporter and importer of goods
Being an eco-friendly nation, Germany is currently researching about ways to transition from mainstream energy sources to renewable energy such as solar and wind energy.
Then she cuts in and asked me to wait for her to type…

ME: Can I continue the story telling?

VO: Yes please go ahead

ME: Okay. Germany operates a federal, parliamentary and democratic/representative system of government where Frank-Walter Steinmeier is the president and head of state while Angela Merkel is the chancellor and head of government in Germany.
During the period of Allied occupation, two German states were founded: West Germany, formed from the American, British and French occupation zones which formed the federal republic of Germany and East Germany, formed from the Soviet occupation zone.
Which also formed German democratic republic
On October 3, 1990, the unification of…..

VO: It’s okay It’s okay It’s okay. You want to fill up my computer with what you know about Germany, I can already see you know about a lot embassy.
For my mind I come dey say aunty na you say make I fire down like caro nao.

Eventually we both laughed to her “You want to fill up my computer” comment and then she told me that’s all, we are through with the interview.

ME: Can I ask you a question please?

VO: The interview has ended nao what else do you want again?

ME: That form you asked me to read and sign which contains the blocked account confirmation details, does signing it invalidate provision of sponsorship letter?[i][/i]

VO: No it does not. You can forward us either your blocked account confirmation or the sponsorship letter. Anyone is fine.

ME: Thank you for satisfying my curiosity. Have a nice day
NB: VO didn’t even ask any information regarding the sponsor I mentioned I have in Munich

I made sure I asked that the last question because a lot of people have been coming here to say once you sign that form you can no longer use SL in place of BA. I doubt if any of such people ever asked their respective VOs this same question before arriving at that conclusion.
Well there you have it from the horse’s mouth – Signing that BA confirmation form does not invalidate SL in anyway. VO’s word, not mine.

Thanks for this insight... It was really helpful

@oversworld, I was actually told by the visa officer who interviewed me not to present a sponsorship letter since I came with a block account opening confirmation, he even asked to enquire severally and adviced I shouldn't try it at all. so I don't know why he said so. Probably there is something about the use of sponsorship letter we really don't know.

Pls if there's anyone here who presented block account opening confirmation and later use sponsorship letter for funding successfully, kindly share with the house how you went about it, so that others in this situation will learn.

thanks

I am actually planning to present a SL during my visa interview tho I used blocked account opening confirmation to book for date due to the unavailability of the SL at that time.... I hope it won't be much of a problem?

Can I open blocked account before I receive my admission letter from The university I applied to?
And what is the process for applying to open blocked account?
The finitiba account website was asking for resumption date and school admitted to.
Thank you

I think you should focus on getting admission first..
Finitiba takes just a day to open provided you upload the necessary docs immediately...so admission before account opening��‍♂️....just my thoughts

Hello House,

Thanks for all the contributions here... this is my first reply in Part 5. Been reading though.

So please can anyone who's gotten admission recently say approximately how long it took 'cos the unchanging message from Uni-Assist (image attached) is starting to bother me. I sent my documents on Monday, 28th of May and up till now, that's still the message. I'm really nervous. Anyone has similar experience of overdue response? Thanks

I got two admissions recently
One from kassel and one from rheinwaal
Both through uniassist application
Took uniassist 2weeks to evaluate and send to the schools.
Rhein waal gave me admission a week after evaluation while kassel two weeks after evaluation.

Still expecting from cottbus and kiel..
Those are thr schools i applied through uniassist.
I hope this helps
