Dude doesn’t look like someone that went abroad in his 20s. I don’t know why, but my spirit is telling me he is one of those Nigerians that are Nigerians on paper only. This doesn’t seem like green card to me. They look lovely.

I think he was born there

Osanoghodua1:
The groom is wearing earing, does it mean groom has departed from the righteous way?

Looks like a Nigerian who was born in the US

Oni fila gogoro from Owu. You should not just waste money cos your awareness isn't noticed.
All your unfinished projects in Ogun State, Dapo no complete them. You n Dapo's money in the bank, in hiding and all assets should be collected n used well by FG.

He has so much money now the next thing is to go for the presidency. The likes of Amosun?Nigeria is just a joke

flourishing247:
Nah. They will issue if they are convinced you will come back. I know people that are in the same boat that got visas.

Yes there is always a slight chance .But 10:90 I will say

tillaman:
At the mention of the Buba Marwa Led Ndlea administration every drug baron should hide
Na this him administration expose a lot of crimes carried out by top government officials
We need more people like Buba Marwa
Person wey no need campaign before they move am straight to Aso rock or Aguda house

The man na no nonsense man .And he s a military man too so no civilian can intimidate him.If he had been a civilian; the likes of kyari couldn't have been caught as he was acting above the law

FunmiSparkle:
Hello everyone. Is there a better chance in applying to abuja rather than lagos for interview? I want to apply for B2 visa to attend my cousin's wedding. I was initially refused visa recently because i said i wanted to visit my fiance. The VO said he should file for me instead. He has filed now,but i need to attend my cousin's wedding in a few months. Should i choose lagos or Abuja?

Well him filing for you means you have immigrant interest and that violates visitors visa rule .I doubt you ll ever get it.you may have to wait until your filing becomes current. THEY don't normally give people like that. You ll still get the same answer. They ll ask you to wait

victorv12:
Don't be fooled. I am into real estate in Abuja. Most of the rich guys hardly live in these houses. If you're talking about the rich guys, are you talking about the politicians? If they're the one, majority of them don't live in Nigeria. They live in Dubai, US, London, Monaco and some offshore islands. It's only when they're coming for plenary at the National Assembly or their state to collect money they come to inspect these properties. Majority don't live there. They live outside Nigeria.

Interesting,so they are literally living abroad and just come to collect their salaries and co?

Yankee101:
Marwa for president

I tell you .He is something else

kingthreat:
Thank God for Buba Marwa

That man is one or the most upright persons in Nigeria.Thats why this case can't be swept under the carpet

ajepako:
I love the doggedness of this NDLEA under Rt General Buba Marwa

Honestly, I do!

Imagine what this crooked cop amassed for himself , an ordinary olopa in uniform oo

I cant even fathom what his ogas at the top would be doing

Typical case of a ' cow thief sending a chicken thief to prison'

Ole radarada

He has more than his ogas o.you see he even has houses in Maitama where billionaires build houses .In fact this is just a tip of iceberg of what he has .

texazzpete:
There’s a complete lack of transparency about this whole thing.

The dancing was videoed in early March. They were sacked around March 10th. And in 1.5 month, they already have gotten passports, admission, gotten visa and relocated to Cyprus?

This doesn’t add up at all.

Not to mention, their photos with them clearly pursuing this materialistic craze and posing beside luxury vehicles they don’t own is NOT something you expect to see from people sponsored by a Pastor.

But you people swallow everything without question, so no surprise you’re becoming a voltron over this

Texas man

DrStrangelove:
That's great bro!

That's a lil bit more than a year from now.

If ur okay with that, just sit back and relax.

My prayer is for u to be granted visa after the long wait. The interview itself is just about 2-3mins except ur interviewed by a meticulous VO who will keep u waiting for about 7mins asking all sorts of different questions.

To me, and if u can, if u have or don't have travel history, pls build on travelling to other places while u wait. This will show to the VO that ur not hellbent on the US because they will be asking in their head that why the US, that whatever it is u need to go for in the US is probably obtainable elsewhere. If u have the right answers, ur good. Though this is not a silver bullet, it helps to defreeze their thinking and help u build a starting talking point with the VO. These long appointment dates are sort of there for a reason coz before u could book an appointment in a matter of 2weeks even sometimes or 4weeks at most. I don't think it's an issue of shortage or personnel or backlogs.

My 2 cents


Goodluck

It all started with covid .Personally shortage and backlogs .Most appointments in 2020 were canceled. Many are just having theirs this year.They have backlogs of about two years and they aren't even working at full capacity due to covid

ednut1:
During winter at 4.30pm its already night.

Right that was so surprising to me back then.And in the morning sunrise comes out early by 5am sometimes

There are three things you must prove to get a US tourist visa
1.You have a valid reason to visit the US at the point in time.I mean VALID
2.You are able to fund your trip
3.You ALSO HAVE A VALID REASON to return to your home country after the visit Prove this,and you are home and dry

SIBF:
:Exactly! It's high time the Academia voiced out. And seeing people just commenting grace up and down.
Nigeria is In a great trouble for all this rubbish all because of business strategy.
I'm in no way after the guy, but after the ideology of Sujimoto behind this rubbish.
He didn't see the best Civil engineering student to sponsor but a musician.
How many times have you seen Apple, Microsoft, Tesla etc doing this rubbish.
How do you want the Engineering and Architecture student to be motivated from this? Even when their 1st class student got employed On a salary of 50k let alone the ample jobless ones.
Every sane individual that knows the meaning of education must condemn this!
We shall reap what we're sowing in 10 yrs time.
If you'll be unfortunate just quote me out of context.

Street urchin wey no even fit write correct grammar. Check out his page and see his write ups.You ask yourself,on what basis has he been chosen?Nigeria is a joke anyway

etibaba:
Tuchel is speaking like a clown, Alonso clearly handled the ball, and scored, if he had passed to someone else that's a different case, but you can't literally use your hand to gain an advantage then score from that advantage and expect VAR not to act, decisions like this is one of the reason why VAR was introduced. He isn't talking about the fact his second goal came from a non-existent corner kick.

Don't mind him, too boastful. See him saying they deserved to go through.How? You lost and you are saying you deserved to go through. The team who won the match deserved to go through. Period.He will not talk about the undue advantage they had , but he is complaining about something else. I remember at the start of t he season he was saying they are ready to compete with city and Liverpool, I wonder where they are now.And after they dropped off; he was now saying it's because James and Alonso were injured that's why Liv and City took advantage. Nonsense let him take several seats

flourishing247:
Before deciding to stay back he should first check if he can change status. I know for a fact that some visas are issued with conditions. There's always a note attached to it stating that no change of status is permitted using the current visa.

There's no such thing baba.Not even sure that is legal.Anyone can change status with the uscis

codesport:
na where DPR dey, PTI staff nko?.

I tell you that Dpr na money spinner

fkj950ax:
What has he been doing for the past 3 months to sustain his continued stay in the US?
Has he been working, or he has so much money he has spent 3 months in the US and has not returned to his home base to get back to work or run his business?
Has he been staying at hotel for 90 days? Or he has accommodation arrangements somewhere?

What did he tell the VO at his interview WRT length of stay?

He probably was stamped in for 6 months at PoE, so he hasn't broken any law right now, but he will have difficulty at the next interview or even a repeat PoE on the same visa.

Now the flip side to all of this is that it is not against the US law to visit the US on a B visa and find love, get married and adjust status. The issue is people abuse the B visa in other to pursue marriage, which is different from what was said at the interview in getting the B visa.

This is the misrepresentation at visa interview. This is why there is an assumption of immigration intent you are supposed to dispel. He dispelled that which he is now doing.

All of this will be nitpicked at his green card interview after his married, and God help a stokes interview is triggered down the line.

If he satisfy the questions at the interview, then he's fine.

Has he broken any law yet? No
Can he find love and get married? Yes
Is 3 months overstay? If he was stamped 6 months at PoE, then No.

But these questions and the answers will be judged by what he filled in his DS160 and what he said at the interview, and USCIS may deny his green card application as marriage for green card and he ends up in immigration court with no EAD while the case is adjudicated. If not denied. He will get 2 years, then 10 years green card and be eligible for US citizenship.

Can he get married, come back home and she sponsors a spousal visa? Yes. It may take a while for it to come through, which people avoid, by staying back.

People adjust status all the time.If he is single and the woman is single they can get married,and as long as the marriage is bonafide,he ll get his green card.Thats all the UScis wanna confirm. You can fall in love after 90 days and get married;but not before 90 days

paulolee:
he is well known in entertainment industry...na him get the popular end of the year comedy show tagged "warri again" and all the Nigerian popular comedian na him padi..
make him focus on dt aspect of entertainment n allow more serious people run our football...

It was even the then Delta state Governor that made him the NFf president.He bankrolled him

Bet9ja says on their website that they will not bow to their demands.Its entering a week now.Who will blink first?Bet9ja or the hackers.?Who will win this game?

6ixT8:
This hackers go bankrupt bet9ja. I see them selling the company share secretly. E go take them years to recoup the ransom.

Have they agreed to pay ransom?

Validated:
Amaechi is APC consensus candidate. Even Tinubu knows that and so does Osinbajo, hence the latter is not declaring.
If Tinubu refuses to step down for Amaechi, Buhari will disgrace him at the primaries. Only Lagos, Osun and Ogun delegates will vote for him after other aspitants must have stepped down.

Like play play e fit happen o

IbileIfe:
Like play like play, RT. Hon. Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi will become the next President of the Federal Republic of NIgeria before our very eyes.

I tell you e fit happen o

emmykk:
The same way Tinubu have been appointing all Lagos governors after him that is how buhari will appoint his next president.

Forget about primaries when the chips are down Tinubu will beg that he we not contest again.

Tinubu already have Lagos if you give him Nigeria that will be disaster

You think Buhari is covertly supporting Amaechi?Amaechi has money to contest anyway even he did everything to make sure Buhari became the president. He is stupendous rich.If he manages to pull this off,it will be one of the greatest presidential stories. From being made governor without even contesting,all the way to the presidency

Bifas1:
Kyari really disappointed himself and his family. Greed has truncated his beautiful career in the NPF and nemesis came as fast as possible. I used to tell colleagues that he will become IGP someday but you proved me wrong, you are rather in Kuje prison. Look, avoid peoples sweat with all the strength you can muster abeg!

Forget all those super cop thing na bobo. GUY has been a devious being for along time.He has soany cases pending against him which the police authorities always swept under the carpet.A lot or people really suffered under him.He was larger than life.But when his day of reckoning came,he fell into Marwas hands who is a no nonsense General. IN fact if the head of Ndlea had been just another Nigerian like that,he would have threatened him and I tell you even this case would have been swept under the carpet.But now his day of reckoning had come and he will account for all his misdeeds In the past.Taking over peoples possessions illegally.

chatinent:
Why is the law respecting this hardened criminal?

Not even one single picture of him in handcuffs or being properly arraigned. Instead we see him in starched Senator clothes with his rumpled criminal face!

Show us proof! Show him in the prison! That guy needs to be kept where he kept others like him make dem lynch am. Or possibly tear tear en yansh. Pastard! I just hope he isn't cooling off in a luxurious apartment, and they are calling it prison.

If possible, the Nigerian police should be disbanded. We can opt to hire the Ghanaian police as replacements because there is no difference between the NPF and hardened armed robbers!

- They carry rifles and steal from all motorists on the highway.
- They kill without recourse to.
- They are poorly trained.
- They lack manners of approach...of course, they don't know the law.
- they steal from anyone they can take advantage of!
- they do every other sorts of atrocities!


Nigeria and ingredients.

I think the police had an agreement with Ndlea that he won't be paraded in cuffs etc.Now what sort of nonsensical arrangement is that?Well Nigeria is an unserious country anyway

Truthisunique3:
honestly partisan politics aside

This is the only man that can handle Nigeria, amaechi na family man he knows how much families need money so economy under him go open with projects

People who benefited money from all his projects as minister are more than those in works ministry sef

So many bread winners working in railway, building, maintaining etc

No be like tinubu kind of government that takes more from masses and give a few recurring loyalists doing his dirty job

Nigeria go enjoy amaechi government pass even atiku because that one believe in tinubu philosophy of government for his crew

So from a speaker of a state house of Assemble Amaechi can rise to the presidency of Nigeria.Itw just amazing.What a meteoric rise.To even think that the court had to bail him out and he just became the governor through Supreme Court judgment despite not participating in the election? This is just amazing

ShaqFu:
I still wonder why people still want to leave this country. Judging by what we enjoy here on daily basis, compare it to what we see and hear from abroad, men I prefer here.

Who tha hell wants to pay 5 dollars for a litter of gas? That's more than a thousand Naira oh.

The money they pay for rent for a month abroad is what some people pay for a year in VGC and other estate on the Island.

Oga forget that 5 dollar talk and don't always be comparing it with naira. It's 3 69 in most places in my county.

ednut1:
immigrants are second class But a Nigerian is justice minister in Alberta, another high court judge is Nigerian there o. There are Nigerians in google, microsoft, and big companies holding managerial and director roles o. Are you even a first class citizen in Nigeria Hahahaah

No mind them.People will always immigrate for different reasons. Even if Nigeria were the best country on earth, people will still relocate. British people move to Canada. Canadians move to the US.Somd Americans even move to France. We are now talking about Nigeria where almost absolutely nothing is working at the moment. You can't point to a single thing that they have gotten right

sharpman1:
A lot of people talking here don't even understand the situation. They think people running from Nigeria are poor or struggling.

I met someone in Houston that left Shell in Nigeria to relocate about 4 or 5 years ago.

My last salary in Nigeria was over 10m per annum (which was/is small in my opinion) in 2018 and I still relocated in 2019. I was an accountant in Nigeria and I got a job in a mid-size public accounting firm the same month I got my work authorization. At exactly 2 years, I moved to a big4 firm. The same big4 in Nigeria refused to employ me because of age or class of degree.

I am currently paying cash for a master's program that will end this year. My program cost over $27,000 but I am allowed to pay per semester based on the number of credits I register for. No way I would have been able to afford $27,000 for school fees if I remained in Nigeria. The value of my retirement savings account in one year alone is more than my over 10 years pension fund account in Nigeria. One of the companies I worked for still owes me over 1 million Naira pension deductions not remitted to my PFA. So many other things that have happened that I won't want to disclose here so as not to give away my identity.

I will always advise anyone. LEAVE if you have the opportunity to relocate legally. Staying in Nigeria was a waste of time for me. If I had come earlier.....I can imagine what I would have achieved.

Even with the fact that she'll is a big oil company and they pay millions which most Nigerians don't earn people still leave .The last time I was traveling, I met a guy from Nigeria who shuttles between Us and Nigetia to see his family. It's a two way thing.Some move with their families and some stay back and send their families abroad while visiting them every two or three months when their off if they feel their job is too lucrative to leave. But then , nothing is guaranteed in Nigeria especially with the volatile security situation now

Coming from someone who is always bragging about material possessions. Will he take several seats
