well, some questions dont have answers, so we dont know why they are there, that information is privy to them alone.
Correct! That is why I said that when someone is inquiring about getting a visa to Afghanistan or Bangladesh, we shouldn't be jumping into conclusion thinking the person is out of his mind. That is been ignorant. Maybe he has someone who knows someone who can introduce him to the president in that country. Too bad that many people on this forum aren't open minded.

AUTOCRATIC



I am disturbed by this post.
OP, as I indicated to you earlier, this forum is full of GURU and Genius when it comes to immigration and visas issues.
Beware of contacting people in private given that you will be running the risk of putting your girl under the cloud of a ban.
IF someone wants to assist you, let them do so on this open forum.
This will allows the GURUs on the forum to asses each piece of information that is been given to you.
Beware of seeking help in private. You may end up coming back with a new thread "Please help me!!!!!!!!!!"

We have geniuses on Naraland. You don't have to follow someone outside. The visa and immigration things are designed to do it by yourself if you have the right info.

You win. Please all footballers in this forum, you've heard; Congo is the place to be. To all business men, workers remain in Nigeria, incase you don't know 1million francs is 200k in naira. grin
Too bad that you don't seem to understand my post.
Life is very tough in DR Congo in general just as in many part of Africa. Nevertheless, there are bright sides in DR Congo. With the right connections, a person can make it very BIG in DR CONGO just like anywhere else.
I have provided the TP MAzembe as an exemple. For the time being, there is no team in Africa (including the Maghreb) that would compare to TP Mazembe of DR Congo. This is the best and richest club on the continent for now. So, you can't just send any footballer on the forum there because this team recruit only players who are drafted on the national team of their home country.

Speaking of businesses, the Nigerians in DR Congo aren't your regular street hustlers. Those are people who have connection with people in the government and they are making very good money.

So, the DR COngo isn't just for any Tom, Dick and Harry. Whenever I meet a Nigerian or West African who has been or planning to go to the DR Congo, I know that the guy is in for a huge deal.

Op, no vex oo. Why would anyone leave Nigeria for congo? I can understand Ghana, Mali, Tanzania and others but Why Congo? undecided
So why do we have Nigerians in DR Congo? I am not talking about street hustlers but real Nigerian business people who make real money. In addition to that, we have soccer players for the national teams of Ghana, Ivory Coast, Tanzania who could be playing in Europe but had chosen to be part of TP Mazembe team in DR CONGO wink

Whats the University situation like in DR Congo; Whats the best university there?.
The university situation in DR Congo is very bad. Wouldn't recommend anyone to go there for studies. DR Congo has a lot of corruptions like most of African countries doesn't mean someone can't make it big in DR COngo with the correct connections
Travel › The Degree Of Ignorance Of Some Nairalanders Is Similar To That Of Americans. by TheCongo2(op): 7:02pm On Nov 29, 2015
I have been coming to this site for the past 5 years. This site is very resourceful with a lot of guru and genius who are basically able to provide an answer in dealing with any visa and immigration issue. On the flip side, The degree of ignorance of some Nairalanders is similar to that of Americans.

I have realized that whenever someone requests visa information to a third world country, some people on the forum wouldn't go straight to address his question but instead they would be probing for the reason of his visit in a demeaning manner (Why would you go to DR Congo? Are you out of your mind?) .

There are reasons why a person would decide to visit a certain country and until the person has stated those reasons we shouldn't make any judgmental statement on the country he is visiting or about his trip. That would be pure ignorance.

Today I came across this thread (https://www.nairaland.com/2768035/how-travel-dr-congo-lagos) of a Nairalander inquiring about getting to DR Congo, my country. I was shocked by madmadu ‘s response to which I had to give the following reply:

OMG, what an ignorant!!!
Because of this type of ignorance you just display, a lot of Africans have ended up illegal immigrants doing demeaning works in the west whereas they could have done far better in in Africa.

There are Nigerians in DR Congo who are doing far better than many Nigerians in the UK or USA. They are involved in big time businesses and they have connections with high profile people in the Congolese government.

By the way, do you know that the players of TP Mazembe of DR CONGO (The champion of Africa) make better money than the average professional soccer player in Belgium? Those TP Mazembe players are notorious of turning down offer from European clubs.

TP Mazembe of DR CONGO has been the champion of Africa 3 times in the past 5 years. It is believed to be the richest team on the continent. The TP Mazembe had assorted players from across Africa. And to be recruited on the team, a player has to be part of the national squad of his home country. That is why the TP Mazembe has players who are part of the national squad of Ivory Coast, Ghana, Zambia, Mali ... it is basically the best players in Africa who make the TP Mazembe squad. And if this team wasn't paying well, none of those foreign players would be there.
The TP Mazembe is only one slice of success in DR Congo. There are many more facets of success in DR Congo that you have no idea about. You seem to be focus on the West to the extent of ignoring what is in Africa

Africa in general isn't all about poverty, wars and diseases. There are riches in Africa. Too bad many Africans don't know what they have in their backyard.

Sorry to hear that your fiancee was denied a visa to the UK.
It is a good thing that you have come to nairaland for advice given that I am sure the gurus on this site will be able to assist you.
Just be careful with those sharks of travel agencies. Your fiancee may end up with a ban if you use them.
I would suggest that you gather all necessary info from the gurus on this forum and then apply those info to your case.
Believe me, we have genius here, so there is no need to use a travel agent.
Just wait and see this thread populated.

Good luck

jeffiejay:
I was given a Visa to study in a school in Florida and school resumes January. However I would like to spend Christmas with friends in Cali before heading to school in Florida. Hope at the POE I cannot be denied for entering at Cali when my I20 says my school is in Florida.
Why not landing in Florida and then fly to CA later on. If I were you I wouldn't take a chance of landing in CA. A Nairaland member had previously wrote about his ordeal of visa cancellation at POE. The reason was that he indicated on his visa application that he was intending to go to one state but he landed in a different state. I will post you the link if I can find that post.

iykbethany:
There is no need for comparison in the first place, both countries have their advantages and disadvantages. It all boils down to choice and other personal factors.

I love the USA as the land of opportunities, but the UK on the other hand has some edge in some areas too.

From what I know, jobs in the USA pay higher

Tax and VAT is better in USA than UK.

In the UK healthcare and many other things are 100% free. For example, my father inlaw had open heart surgery 100% free.

Because of free healthcare I would prefer UK. And again the UK is better in terms of security, the gun violence in USA is scary.

For me Canada wins it eventhough CA was not included. Free medicare, better security than UK/USA etc.
Free Medicare in Canada !!!! My friend, someone may think that the medicare care in Canada is a bed of roses. Far be it.

Please be advised that the Health care you get for free in Canada is only the basic that does not include coverage of any prescription medication nor any cost of the dentist neither the eye care. You are on your own if your doctor have prescribed you a $15 per day drug that you have to take for a length of 6 months. You are on your own if you have issue with your teeth or your eyes.

Given these facts, most of us need to buy addition health insurance from private company. In addition to that, the most visible manifestation of Canada’s failing health care system are wait times for health care services. Have you ever been to an emergency room at any Canadian Hospital?

You indicated that your father in law had open heart surgery 100% free in the UK. I am not sure if this could be free in Canada.
All I know is that some Canadians travel to Cuba for low cost surgeries not covered by the Canadian Universal healthcare or Medicare
