aeoisolmo: Hello guys.
I am married to my nigerian wife for 20 years, we lived in Nigeria off and on, and plan to move to Lagos permanently.
For good reasons I need a nigerian Passport. From what I have heard, the process is very difficult, and can take up to
15 years. I can't wait that long, does anybody have high rang friends in immigration, that can be of assistance with my
problem?
I know, there are some other threads on this topic, and some people are propably going to aks, why I would even want a nigerian
Passport, or others might think I don't have the right to it, because it's difficult for Nigerians to get foreign Passports.
I can only say, there where no problems for my wife getting stay permit and passport in my country, once we where married.
We all know, there is some corruption going on in Nigeria, which also I suffered from sometimes, so why not take advantage
of that when possible?
I would be very happy, if anybody had some information for me.
Thanks
Peter

yamakuza: Any other pictures?

This one looks too wide.

Reminds me of those stealth bombers.

yema00x7: Good afternoon,Well i want to report a guy to everyone here who have been scamming people all around.sometimes around september last year,This guy started calling me ,He says can i help him in processing portugal visa,i said no problem,After 2 weeks he called me again and said am i ready for the job,I told him no problem.After some weeks he started disturbing me with messages saying he can help my client with Japan ,south korea,estonia,south cyprus,Brazil,Argentina,Mexico ,columbia and canada Visa.I was surprised when i got the message because what he told me the first time he called was that he want me to help him with portugal Visa.i did not reply to his message,the next day he called and explain to me...I said but you told me you need a portugal visa why are you telling me all this,He said hes a travel agent but he doesnt like dealing with clients that he likes dealing with travel agents...To cut the long story short,he keeps disturbing with another message that he has a sure link of canada,That is just a processing of 2 weeks...he sent me one fake canada job that he claims he is among the ones they submitted.I was convince,so when some guys came to my office i explained to them about the canada job,They were interested but they told me they not going to drop a dime until the job comes out.I called Felix and explained to him,He said no no no ,we need a deposit of 100k for each.I said well am sorry we cant do business together because my clients are not ready to drop any money.after some days again ,he start sending me text messages again that this is a sure job that he is dealing with the white man directly ,that if he helps me get this canada work permit it will boost my business the more...I said my brother it cant work ,my clients are not ready to drop any money..But he never stops Flashing and texting me. so explained to my clients ,they insist...To make the Job done, out of my pocket i sent #160,000K to this guy to his Gtb account:
Account Name,Felix Azubike.
Account Number,0025625519
Phone number,08032706277

I ran to the airport that day because he said if he did not receive the passports that day theres nothing he can do as the white man needs to travel to canada so i ran to the airport and i sent those passport with #6000,i called him that i have sent the money and passports ,I started counting after 2 weeks i called him Felix how far?He sayd emm emm theres a delay i should give him another two weeks ,That night that i called him he text me another message that he has a south cyprus link ,no deposit ,japan no deposit,i got like 4 guys who are interested but my mind tells me not to send it as i know if he has those passport he will still ask for money....In conclusion,this scammer felix Azubike ,who is married and have two kids ,played on me for almost 6 months ,i threathen him ,i reported the case to the police but because of the distance because he stayed in Abuja...he finally sent those passport back last week,when he sent it he did not even tell me anything ,it was the bus driver that called me that i have a package from Akure ,i said wrong number ,later the next day my mind tells me to call him ,so i called him with a different number as he no longer pick my calls again since feb so when i called him with another number he picked it and i asked abt my passport ,he said he has sent it ,i said WHAT?you sent passports without letting me know,what abt the money i sent ,he said hes busy that i should call him later.I called him today again with another glo number,he said he also spent money that theres nothing he can do.Now am blaming myself because 1,I dont even know him ,weve never met before,2,Since we have been talking he never call me for once ,all he does is to flash me or text me...i should have known that he is a scammer.Please nairalanders,be careful and dont fall victim like me...he might use another number to call you or change his account but be careful...You should all learn from my mistake.Thank you!

menia: He has a right of appeal but his right of appeal is limited to the grounds refered to in section 84(1)(c)of the nationality immigration and asylum act. the ground is "that the decision is unlawful under section 6 of the Human Rights Act 1998 (c. 42) (public authority not to act contrary to Human Rights Convention) as being incompatible with the appellant’s Convention rights". He can also ask for an administrative review of the decision or reapply.

avenza: please house i need your best advice concerning my visa application refusal, which is stated below

you state that you will fund your proposed trip to the UK and have submitted your personal bank statements evidence of finance. You state you monthly income to be 180,000(£720) however the credits and balances in your account are not commensurate with your declared monthly income
you have not provided an ITCC or any further evidence of your stated income and I am therefore not satisfied that your income or employment is as claimed. Therefore on the balance of probabilities I am not satisfied that you will be maintained and accommodated in the uk without working or having recourse to public funds or are able to meet the cost of return or an onward journey by paragraph 1(vi) and (vii) of HC395
I therefore refuse your application because I am not satisfied on the balance of probabilities that you meet all of the requirements of the relevant paragraph of the united kingdom immigration rules.
Your right of appeal is limited to the grounds refered to in section 84(1)© of the nationality immigration and asylum act 2002 (www.legislation.gov.uk) .

[b]so pls i need your advice on the best thing to do concerning this my case, i submitted all the necessary documents, tax clearance, certificate of incorporation,bank statement, receipt of transaction and many others, i have over 2 million in my account with transactions on it, so i don't know how else they want me to prove to them[/b].

Observer1: @vicjustice,
refusal,when I said refusal I do not mean absolute refusal,I got pissed off with the consular and we xchanged some words and I said to hell with him and pssport,And left never gone back there since 2007,Although I once had a guy called Mohammed to check my details on their system,But he could not find any,Which means the event was not registered on their computer.Anyway,I know that I portrayed myself as a violent person here which I am not.

The reasons why I got pissed off was that they kept making the rules as they go,they were not following the official requirements.On the requirements I met all that was on the BOOK.However,he requested That I bring an Affidavitts,luckly I was a law student doing work xperience in a firm,so I got one of the solicitor in the office to sign it and he included his num which they rang.Then I was asked to come the next day,I tot I going to collect the psssport or something.Guess what?your man demanded that bring another affidavitts from nigeria,luckly my cousin is a Barrister in Ikeja,he immediatly fax it to me the next day.yr man demanded again that I bring a letter of Indigene from a cheif or oba near to our home,which I did the next 3 working days (friday)he then requested again that I bring a letter from my mum.I then said this is complete horse manure,Why did'nt you ask me to bring all these things in one go,He said he is in charge he can demand what he please,I said then to hell with u and the passport.And I never went back there since then.Although,a friend introduced me to Mohammed then,who later confirmed that the incident was not recorded.

Kakatazz: I boarded the Turkish Airline from the UK to Nigeria on the 15th of March but to my utmost surprise passengers were complaining about missing items in their luggage.I decided to keep calm until my own luggage came.Because it was pretty late I had to leave the airport to go check at home.You wont believe that a new packet shirt that I brought in from the UK was stolen.I have a video of all that transpired at the airport,how victims were vetting out anger at the MMA officials for not catching the people behind it.I suspect the boyz that handle luggage.

henrychubayo: Hi, i will help you by giving you some useful information. First, you can make the amendment in your passport but i will cost you very much. Second, the only place you can make the amendment is in the immigration office abuja. Third beware of ppl that will tell you to give them money to do it for you. You can do everything when you go right inside the main office of immigration office. Again don't tell them the truthful reason you gave us here been the reason for that mistake but you could say that you want to answer you fathers name since the other one is your fathers father name or you could tell an immigration officer the truth and he might profer other reasonable statements you could make. It immigration office in abuja, i think they have passport correction office cause i was told when i did my passport in enugu that in case of mistake, i will visit only this place. Beware of fraud guys around that place

donbigboy: Pls will 500,000 be enough for ECO for a trip of 3 days. I have also call the event organiser to copy the ECO the official invitation letter & also an introduction letter hope this can help as well.

cindybrown: Pls ladies, share ur views. How best can u tell ur guy dat he is a terrible kisser without hurting his feelings? Especially a guy who feels he should know better than u do.

"When I was growing up my mum made me wear "hand me down" clothes which were passed down from 3 of my sisters. I rarely had any piece of dress originally purchased for me. This made me the object of scorn and jokes in my
Neighbourhood. I remember feeling shy, ashamed and worthless.

One day I made a vow to myself that I would go to ANY extent to look after myself.

Today I am a well paid banker. However, I have a huge challenge I am in debt.

Every month my salary goes to various creditors from whom
I had previously bought clothes, watches, bags, shoes, head gears, underwears etc some of which
I kept for over a year and are now out of fashion.

I will clock 38 this month unfortunately without a spouse. Most of prospective suitors complain about my lavish lifestyle.

I am confused and helpless, what can I do?"
