Hello guys,
I got my visa with my wife's visa Skilled worker my wife as primary applicant, me as dependant. But to my surprise, we were both issued 3 months visa. Is it that we will get the 5 years on our BRP after we get to the UK? and also, will they mail our BRP to the given address before we get there or after we get there? what should we do now since our visa is out other than buying flight ticket?
thanks

No boss . Its not 3 month VISA. what you got in your passport is an entry clearance which elapses in 3 months (standard for everyone). What it means is that you have 3 months to enter Uk so you can receive your BRP. that is where you see the 5years.

Politics / Five Mistakes Baba Buhari Must Not Repeat by uncleabbey(m): 2:33am On Mar 02, 2019
Five Mistakes Baba Buhari Must Not Repeat



The rants that enveloped the announcement of President Muhammadu Buhari in the just concluded election was so profound that makes one wonder who the people really voted for and how Buhari got them but that one is another topic for another day. This article focusses on some acts either deliberate or otherwise, that made Buhari so Unpopular among the Nigerian elites and why it is will be devastating to repeat them.

The first Buhari mistake in 2015 was his indifference or lack of interest in the national assembly election which produced the likes of Senator Bukola Saraki and Speaker Yakubu Dogara who later became a big thorn on his flesh and an attempt to remedy the situation brought about bickering, intimidations, threat and war literally between the legislative and the executive to the extent that a simple function of a President presenting an annual led to chaos. Many bills, reforms, and acts that would have benefited Nigerians were stalled by the Saraki cohorts and Presidency responded by using the judiciary to intimidate. These and the rest are sufficing to say that everything was a mess which must not be repeated at all cost, PMB must influence who becomes the Speaker and Senate president so as not repeat the last brouhaha.

Another way PMB erred Nigerians is his distance from Nigerian media. Over the past three years (minus election period), One can easily count how many times President Muhammadu Buhari actually had a chat with the media houses but he finds it easy to talk to foreign media, In fact, after He was inaugurated in 2015, the first interview he granted was to Christian Amanpour of CNN. He even dispelled the cloning rumor in the abroad. This was a grave mistake on his part because most Nigerian are enlightened people and distancing himself from the media means he distanced himself from Nigerians and this must particularly never be repeated. Another point to be taken from this is his derogatory comments whenever he travels abroad, comments like lazy Nigerian youths, Nigerians are corrupt etc. must stop as it puts Nigeria/Nigerians in a bad light. He was like a CEO that badmouths his products, it is crazy, to say the least.

Buhari waited for complete six good months sourcing, researching and searching for a minister to work with and at the end gave us a list that has the likes of Solomon Dalung, Bayo Shittu, Abubakar Malami, Chibuike Amaechi and Himself as ministerial nominees. One would think the president was joking when he released the ministerial list but alas, he was damn serious and we all saw what happened afterward. Baba must put square pegs in square holes this time around as Nigeria has more sons and daughters who are more sensible and capable than those clueless simpletons. He must also unburden Minister Fashola portfolios as the three Ministry are too much for him to handle. Baba should also recuse himself from becoming a minister this time around as it is distracting and time wasting. Nigeria has a lot of talent to draw from.


Also, the President in the past seems to be an ignoramus to issues affecting Nigerians, it takes a lot of hashtags, trends and foreign media engagements before Baba attention is drawn to core issues affecting Nigeria and Nigerians alike. You claimed not to know about Justice Onnogen, Police intimidation and harassment of Nigerians, Fulani killings, Kemi Adeosun certificate saga nor initial knowledge of Babachir Lawal grass cutting scandal. What are you? John Snow? This kind of feign ignorance has to stop because as the president of a country, your job is to know. The “I don’t know attitude” makes it seems like the president is taking us all for a ride. He can do better.

Last and most importantly, Baba should run an inclusive government. I know as a Hausa man, he feels he would be more comfortable working with his tribesmen but Nigeria is an entity that encompasses a lot of tribes who has individual interest and they might feel marginalized if they do not have anybody representing their interests. The present service chiefs are mostly from the north and Baba Buhari important appointments seem to favor one section of the country, this makes Baba look biased which is not a good attribute for president in any saner clime. Once you are a president, the country comes first and other things must not supersede the interest of our Beloved country. He should be perceived as a man who is really for everybody. He must also be vocal when there is violence involving herdsmen and farmers.

Do you feel I excluded some things? Let us have a conversation in the comment section and on twitter @abiodunsays. I hope we will eventually get there as a nation. God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Well in my opinion, I don't think its a must for penetrative sex to follow up after much cuddling. Ah mean, there is a way a guy would give a girl pre-intimacy and she would urm take His member by the hand and fix it into her..

But most girls are shy and don't often let out their wildness. So they'll prefer you do some things before flowing with the rhythm

Romance / Rape: Does NO Really Means NO? by uncleabbey(m): 6:08pm On Nov 27, 2017
DOES NO REALLY MEANS NO?

Social Media has been buzzing for a while over this particular topic. It has created some sort of dissonance among many school of thoughts. This idea of consent is so sensitive that if you tweet or post something on Fb and these armies come for your head, you’ll be forced to take it down. Before I proceed on the topic, let’s first try to consider these two illustration:
Ade and Funmi has been dating for a while, they have sextexed, teased, flirted with each other, they have had phone intimacy on many occasions but the only thing is that they haven’t yet met. So while chatting, Ade invited Funmi over and she agreed to come. On getting to Ade’s, after expected pleasantries and small talks, things got heated and they started kissing and smooching. But when it was time for action, Funmi shouted a very loud “NO” that she is not interested. Ade, even though pained, calmed down and didn’t pursue it further. Later, Funmi left for her house and she stopped picking Ade’s call. When Ade’s friend that hooked them together called Funmi, she said Ade wasn’t man enough, he should have pressed futher that she was just doing initial gra-gra bla bla bla. Bottom line, Ade moved on.
Few months later, Ade met Tope and things was normal between the two, they were teasing, flirting and even kissing after dates. So, Tope visited her boyfriend and while watching a film, things got intensed. The romance came and Ade proceeded to go down but Tope said NO, he shouldn’t but Ade not wanting to make the same mistake twice, thought it was just gimmicks. So, He tried to continue the pursuit and eventually forced his member into Tope’s abode while she shouted and resisted vehemently. Ade was eventually arrested and prosecuted.
The illustration above (though fictional) is what is happening in this society, many guys are like Ade who couldn’t discern the difference between NOs. This has become some sort of dilemma for most guys raising questions like how do you know the difference between Consent and no consent, how to know a Lady that just wants Romance etc. The answer to these questions though complex is quite simple. It just need a proper breakdown:
What is NO? No (in sex context) simply means not giving or expressing permission for the opposite sex to have forms with you. From my personal experience and finding, there are two types of NO and for the purpose of this discussion, I’ll call them “Normal No” and “Coded No”. “Normal No” involves not giving consent and insisting on maintaining that stance even after persuasion and seduction while the “coded No” also known as Initial gragra is when a lady says No initially because she doesn’t want to be seen as cheap or Lady of easy virtue. This type of NO is very difficult to understand.
To understand the difference between the normal no and coded No, we need to acknowledge that the fact that the term “No means No” in Nigeria is very relative and it’s meaning isn’t as literarily expressed, this is because due to our cultural and religious backgrounds, most girls will never say "Yes, let’s Bleep or let’s have sex same way they’ll never walk up to a guy to woo him (Even when they have strong feelings for the guy). So, guys have to understand Consent comes in all forms and manners, human can communicate via verbal and none verbal means, body language, posture, eye contact and proximity. This implies that guys have to learn to discern the differences by watching and listening to the body language of the opposite sex.
For example, in the Normal No, you’ll notice reluctancy, rigidity and hostility in the girl, you will this encounter this look that shows lack of passion, disgust hatred an. Her body language will say it all. If you encounter all these traits and characters, Please stop every approach and take your L in peace, don’t be like Ade, there is no joy in raping a lady that is not interested. But on the other hand, in the coded No, you’ll notice that signs of encouragement or no resistance, even while the girl is saying her No you’ll notice her responding to all your touches in a very good way, urging you to continue or not showing signs of wearing back the undies that had been initially removed. If you encounter a lady like this, cheers mate, enjoy yourselves.
In conclusion, in order to avoid getting yourself in an awkward situation where you might be accused of rape, the best thing is to remain celibate, no body will accuse you if you did not thread the path but If you can’t zip-up, make sure you print out enough copies of the consent forms making round on Social Media and make sure she fills it before you start any action or Make sure you get an affirmative answer before penatrating any lady (I’ll advise you ask three times) in order to avoid stories that touch. Above all, don’t force anybody, don’t let your dick think for you and make sure you always use protection. Aids is real. Stay woke, Stay blessed.
