TravelLife In Various Foreign Countries: From My Experience by Vicjustice(op):
As someone who has been to Malta, the Czech Rep, Russia, Germany, Greece, Turkey, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Croatia, Canada, Benin Rep. Nigeria, France, Ireland, England, Italy and Spain, i think it's high time i disclosed some certain matters of concern, to narrate some of my important experiences so as to make Nigerians understand more than enough when it comes to travel matters.
   If i mentioned that i was born in Europe, they would say that i'm lost, if i mentioned that i was born in Africa, they would say that i was/am an illegal immigrant in Europe: if i said that i'm new in Europe, they would say that i'm a JJC or inexperienced, and if i said that i've been in Europe for ages, they would say that i'm frustrated and in need of residence permit documents. So, whatever one says, they have negative answers for them. Therefore, i think it is better to leave those who are fault finders to their own puzzles

*Malta Island, February (year withheld). the weather was chill, i surveyed the beautiful country to see what it can offer: the economy was considerably good for its low population of less than 400.000 people, but it doesn't promise much due to its size and limited resources, it is not an ideal place for inflow of legal immigrants how much more for the illegals, the immigration law is remarkably strict due to the fact that they can not accommodate large number of people.

The Czech Rep. February (year withheld): I was in the city of Prague and the temperature during my stay ranged between -17 and -24 degree celsius, all ground covered in white, all through my short stay until my departure day, it was remarkable that i saw no black African, not even one, the only black guy i saw was an American army on transit with his white colleagues. My assessment about the Czech republic is that it's not a place for "hustlers" but it serves as an ideal place for courses, assignments or duties.

*In the course of time, i was involved with the organisation, D.W.B, and was posted to Athens, Greece. i could do without the Greek language, but because of the educational value of the legend Greek language, i took interest to study it; an achievement i'm now pleased about.
   Greece is a very beautiful country and it's a hot spot for tourism: But you rarely see any eminent Nigerian in Greece; believe me, i don't think there are countries that would produce swams of embarrassing citizens who humiliate themselves in the name of "hustle" to the disgrace of their nations than the Nigerians in Greece, Italy and Spain: many thanks to their locations which make them the arrival places for illegal immigrants.
   It is remarkable that 92% of the Nigerians in Greece did not enter the country with visas, they smuggled into the country from neighbouring countries like Bulgaria, Macedonia, Serbia, Turkey and Albania.
   The life styles of the Nigerians in Greece are terrible and ridiculously embarrassing, about 90% of them are either illiterate or half educated. thus making them suitable for the demeaning activities that they would carry out to survive: the "GBURU" hustle.
   In the past, there used to be only the Yorubas and a countable number of other Nigerian students in Greece, but things became funny when the "Onitsha" guys flocked in and began to hawk fake Roloi (wristwatches) and then-after, pirated CDs and por'no DVDs. Their target markets are crowded places like Cafeteria, Pubs, Bars, Beaches, and Restaurants where they often make their customers uncomfortable with their body odours. oftentimes you'd see Nigerian guys running in the streets from fat police officers who seldom succeed in catching them: and sometimes, when surrounded by the police while doing their business inside crowded indoor cafeterias, they would manage to escape by jumping over or smashing tables full with drinks and food that would splash and mess up the clothes of the customers, and by pushing away or knocking down those who aren't quick enough to get off their escape way.
   Because of the Nigerian CDs and po'rno DVDs hawkers, the Greek authority was compelled to create a special police unit by recruiting young, agile and athletic officers known as the Alodapon Astynomia (or foreigners mobile squad), these enthusiastic young officers eventually declared total war on both illegal immigrants (or residents) and unauthorized hawkers, thus leading to the mass frustration of the Nigerians living in Greece.

NOTE: I'm a circular person and i do not mind saying the fact no matter what people that are involved. . .
  I'm not specifying that the embarrassing Nigerians are those from "Onitsha", in fact, it wasn't me who nicknamed them "see Onitsha see Europe".  This is the slogan the Ndi-Igbo use against those who they consider to be less educated or over zealous in "hustle".


*The Baltic, June: I Arrived Latvia for my assignment in the Baltic states namely, Latvia Estonia and Lithuania. I'll use Estonia as the subject point to tell you some facts about these three countries and other eastern European countries.
   Estonia, though it joined the EU in 2004, was not a member of the schengen states (until recently, Dec 21, 2007). A visa for Estonia was in accordance with the Baltic States Treaty (an agreement which made it also valid for Latvia and Lithuania only). The Baltic is the sea that connects to Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia: These three states are sister countries that used to be under the Soviet Union: in 2006, the temperature there dropped to -40 degree celsius.
   The economy in Estonia is not encouraging for people who want to make it abroad, even the Estonians are everywhere in richer EU states for better paid jobs.
   Estonia (like Latvia and Lithuania) is only popular for tourism purposes, it's not an ideal destination for someone who's in pursuit of greener pastures.
   Estonia is a place where you rarely see black people, perhaps 5 blacks in a month and this is only in Talin, the capital city.
    While most people are curious to make friends with Blacks, the racists there are of high degree: imagine a place where there are uncountable number of Russian skin-heads who would shoot or stab any "makaka" (Russian word for monkey).
   A remarkable percentage of Estonian citizens (Like in Latvia and Lithuania) are ethnic RUSSIANS. The few African students there are hell afraid for their lives, some have witnessed their fellows being shot, stabbed or beaten up in the streets, even to death, they are too few to revolt and many are financially broke, they need help!
   I have been attacked by these skin-heads two times in just three weeks, but i was lucky enough to escape without injuries, not every one is this lucky, they've shot, stabbed and even beaten many Blacks or Asian-looking people to death.
   Imagine a place where a black man is afraid to walk alone in the dark or in an empty street, this is the situation there.
   Though they joined the EU, but the EU laws that forbid open racism do not exist there: God is my witness that i'm saying the truth: you'd consider yourself fortunate if somebody says to your face "Go home nigger" or calls you "makaka" because, the same person could have shot or stabbed you and ran away. Reporting physical abuse or verbal racist attacks is a very familiar thing to the local police: when foreign tourists or residents report such, the police often take little or no action especially if there is no death nor serious injuries involved.
   I do not advise any Nigerian (desperate to make it abroad) to consider Estonia except if you're going with a group of tourists for tourism: I was there on a assignment, but yet, It was not safe, and worse still, you can not make it there except you have to rob a bank; or can you live with $270 (186 Euros) a month in Europe?
   I feel sorry for those potential victims of "check out", and my humble advise is: if you must check out, do so to any of the countries that promise hope but NEVER Estonia.
   Do not take a risk to travel to a country where you can NEVER, and i mean NEVER find a job how much more to talk about the wages: People there do not understand English, just Russian and the Eesti Languages (except some very few young ones who recently began to show interest in English Language).
   Unlike the good EU countries where black people can "vanish" into black communities, a black man in Estonia and other eastern European countries is an obvious figure, so, it's easy to pick him up as soon as his visa expires: a black man can not hide among white people; therefore, attempting to "vanish" into other EU countries from Estonia is as risky as swimming across a river that is infested with crocodiles.
   Estonia population is just 1,415,681, (far less than 1.5 million). Black people don't live in estonia the few you see there are students who are badly in need of help like those in Russia and some other poor European countries.

**********************************************************************************
   *Taking the Urban train as you leave Berlin Schoenefeld airport and passing through those impressive tall office facilities, then looking at your right as you see the huge Mercedes Benz building, even before getting to the city centre, one can tell that Germany indeed merits the title "Europe biggest economy"; to my observation, there's no country in Europe that is more developed than Germany; a coutry full of massive structures, companies and industrial facilities, where everything looks new and clean, where you hardly see any vehicle that is up to 5 years old. Mind you, it's capability of accommodating and maintaining a population of over 83 million people above poverty level explains that its indeed a great nation, and the most developed one in Europe.

   *Canada, with it's size bigger than the USA and a population of less than 32 million is highly underpopulated and in need of immigrants, i visited my brother who lives in Ontario region, his wife is an accountant masters degree holder from Nigeria, but she has recently began to attend a school of nursing because of the lucrative medical industry in Canada. Those who are illegal residents are not having hard times there: The good thing is, Canada does not deport immigrants for reason of documentation, the country needs them to stay, but the Canadian authority is only being careful about who they legalise because, despite the overwhelming opportunities in Canada, many Nigerians are involved in illegal activities relating to frauds and scams

*    It's more or less frequently raining in Ireland: temperate maritime; modified by North Atlantic Current; mild winters, cool summers; consistently humid; overcast about half the time.
  Ireland and the UK have their hands full and tight with immigrants; both documented and undocumented, students and families, asylum seekers and naturalised dwellers.
  Though there are opportunities in these two countries, and while Ireland may be appealing because of its rich and generous social welfare programmes,  if you are a student, you are only like any other African or Asia students once in Ireland because, the education system (for those who are already in the state) is come-one-come-all: so, doing your education here does not guarantee you anything enviable afterall, asylum seekers and undocumented immigrants from Africa and Asia do attend same schools. But if you are permitted to work in Ireland, believe me, they pay more than most big name countries in the world, not even the USA nor the UK can compete with Ireland in minimum wages.
   Irish people are very nice but extremely lazy, they enjoy the extravagant "social welfare" system in the country which makes them unwilling to work: they go to the post offices every week to collect free Social, Unemployment, Disability, Sick, or House Allowance "benefit" which is often about 246 Euro ($354) per week: There are also child benefits for every single child in Ireland irrespective of the parent/s status; too many Nigerian women are single parents in Ireland.
   There use to be immigration programmes schemes organised by the Irish government in poor Asian countries like Bangladesh China and the Philippines, this was designed to import working immigrants to the benefit of the Irish economy which has boosted remarkably in recent years, in fact, it's rated the 2nd best in the word after Luxembourg. This programme came to a halt when it became dawn that the EU would expand by 10 additional countries mainly from East Europe with feeble economies, and their citizens would flock into Ireland sooner or later.
  Currently, there are about six hundred thousand Polish nationals in Ireland alone which means, one in six people you see in Ireland is Polish; thus making things complicated for the government to consider giving residence-permit documents to Asylum seekers: the Irish authority believes that they have more than enough immigrants.
  In the past, there used to be an immigration law that says whoever is born in Ireland (irrespective of the parents immigration status) is automatically an Irish Born Citizen (IBC), and their mothers are given residence status of PIBC (Parents of Irish Born Citizen): such residence status known as the Stamp4 recidence card was easy to obtain until December 2004 after Poland and the other poor countries joined the European Union.
  There is seldom border control between the UK and the Republic of Ireland, this made it easy for undocumented pregnant women in the UK to enter the country and give birth to Irish Citizens. Many people, both single and married African women forced themselves pregnant without husbands or regular boyfriends. . . Things became funny when the single mothers would accept payments of about 5000 Euro from Nigerian men who would claim to be the arriving fathers of the IBCs in order to get the PIBC status.  The Irish authority has been fooled in thousands of such frauds, until they introduced the DNA test into immigration which eventually led to the arrests and fleeing of many men who have already benefited from the IBC frauds.
   Many Nigerian women that got pregnant and came to Ireland to give birth are now facing frustrations in Ireland with their kids because the IBC law was amended before they could give birth. They now live in asylum seekers hostels nationwide with uncertain futures. Some have been deported and many more have been served deportation letters; howbeit, many have been granted leave to remain on humanitarian grounds and good conduct reports

   
   The reason i came up with this article is to explain (due to my campaigns) the things that are going on and the fact of what are to be expected in some countries contrary to what "travel agents" would want you to believe.

Kobojunkie:
Here is a question for the poster. Why do you believe there is no SPIRIT OF POVERTYhuh @VicJustice. Would the answer be any of the following
1) Just because you say so or do not believe it ??

2) You have never seen one and so there is none??

3) Because since your uncle changed his mind means it does not exist??

Please fill us in as to how you arrived at their not being one in the world you live in @VicJustice,
My answer to you question is: because there is no such spirit in the western world, so i don't accept that it opperate only in Africa. Mind you, i'm a christian.

You can visit any country that a regular Nigerian passport can visit without visa, the UK permit does not influence your eligibility except that you might not need transit visa for the countries that would usually require transit visa for Nigerian passport holders.

Thank you all for your valuable suggestions, and the conclusion of all the advices is that I should better wait. Ok I had a feeling that I should wait but wanted to confirm if there is any other solution. But my wife in UK having a hard time, even she made her mind to return and told me to find a solution or she is coming back but you can understand that its a big decision which literally means to start from zero again.

Somebody also suggested me to just apply for a visit visa to meet your wife rather than dependent visa with just some amount in your bank account and with a letter from my employer in the home country.

I want to know if the chances for getting the visit visa against the dependent visa are higher.
Man, in your situation and condition, i suppose it would even be easier to obtain a join spouse visa than a visit (or tourist) visa because, considering your financial state, i don't see you eligible for a visiting visa. Your best bet is to keep on with your normal life and be patient for your wife to be a little bit established in the UK, and then, you can apply to join her.
  DO NOT APPLY FOR ANY VISA YET-WHETHER JOIN SPOUSE OR VISITING BECAUSE, A REFUSAL STAMP WON'T LOOK GOOD IN YOUR PASSPORT.

Better still,I mail Seun(owner of this websit) to create a childish track for people like you.Please,allow some knowledgeable and mature people to contribute to my topic if you can nt.
Nobody is "abusing" anyone here, this is a situation whereby a person who apparently suffered from attention deficit disorder tries to make himself recognised and respected by means of false claims, and would fight tooth and nail against anyone who questioned his claims.
  I can understand why you're some how rude to the other guy here because i'm aware that he publicly stated that your English is not impressive for a "graduate", but he obviously had his reason, though.
  As for your request for "mature" people to contribute. . , i really don't know what more you like to hear because, i can see that all questions are answered. Anyway, all these are just negatively interesting.

This guy DANTECMU stole my number and started a correspondence with me, i thought he was for real, and i was exchanging informations with him for several days until things began to get strange. He told me his name was Nnamdi, and i entered it in my address book, hoping to meet this impressive young dude someday in Dublin or in Nigeria (since i'll be there soon). It became funny enough when i observed him lying each time he contacted me, and so, i suspected that he might have lied to me also about his own name.
  I sent him a text message. . ."Hey friend, what's that your name?" But the poor liar who didn't have a good memory replied childishly "My name is Chuks"
  Then i responded "What was the first name you gave?" The liar (who apparently had forgotten) never replied, and this compelled me to search his profile and his posts to see how many people he has been kidding with, and you all know the results.
  Please, nairalanders, who ever wishes to hear or have knowledge of something whatsoever should avoid guys like this DANTECMU unless you want to believe a lie or a counterfeit fact. Remember, it's better to know nothing than to believe a lie
  He's a university graduate, has done his nysc, studied further and has obtained his MASTERS: He has had 2 years working with a "multinational org", has travelled to many countries in Europe and South Africa in the pace of "weeks". . . and he's just 23 years of age cheesy grin cheesy grin cheesy grin

TravelRe: Visa Application by Vicjustice: 8:18pm On Nov 02, 2007
michofem:
Hello Nairalanders.

Please I need sincere advice on this matter urgently. I'm about to make a student visa application at british embassy.

But I'm afraid, my sponsor's statement of account is nt six month old but very fat. He opened his account in June. Is the statement valid for my application.

I'll really apprciate it if I get relevant info. concerning the application from you guys.

Lovely day guys!!!!!!!!!!
Your sponsor may need to provide evidence of how the initial fund came about, and also to give documented details of what he's been working as and relative bank details.
TravelRe: Uk Visa - Visa Appeal Process by Vicjustice: 8:04pm On Nov 02, 2007
c4cancer79:
4. No bank statement at all just merely 100GBP
5. Me neither possess a strong bank statement, only I can make some of my relatives to deposit nearly 5000GBP which will come at once means statement would be inconsistent.


So what are my chances of getting Student dependent visa. I was told that its UK's law that they can't break a family so being her husband they have to give me the visa, although there is no guarantee.

I have this forum briefly, but there are still some points that needs to be addressed in my case.

1. Can a dependent is able to get the visa on its own bank statement which is not strong, or in other case be sponsored by someone else in the home country, rather than the student's bank statement.

2. Will ECO really give preference and be easy on the student's spouse visa or with above situation he will simply refuse it.

Please if you want any additional details to clarify the situation do tell me. I am really in a situation where either I have to apply with whatever the docs I have or I will call my wife back crashing all the hopes, and drowning 4000GBP in total expenditure.
Man even if it should be considered your right to join your wife in the UK, but the UK embassy reserves the rights to temper your own rights with consideration on the balance of probabilities especially in the aspect of the bank statements involved.
(1) Neither of you have an imposing bank statement
(2) The 5000GBP that would be deposited into your account will be considered as money lodgment, and that would mean REFUSAL of visa in either situations.
  The ECO will likely sense that you're going to recourse to public funds or take illegal employments once in the UK. . .
   However, i do not advice you to give it up because, i don't know how many more opportunities you'd have. . , therefore, if you're really desperate to go to the UK, i'll suggest that you let you wife remain in the UK so that you may have a ground to fight for your right to join her there. Remember, the problem does not lie in her being in the UK, but on you being where you are, and your poor bank statements. So, try and see what you can do about it. Goodluck

Can u apply for schengen visa with a passport that was stamped refusal by UK visa consular precisely 27th August 2007.
I learnt its suppose to be after 6months but this passport was initially taken to UK embassy

The Question is, since UK is not schengen does the 6months wait also applies if I want to apply for schengenhuh?? (VISIT)
The UK embassy is entirely independent from the Schengen agreement, so, the six months regulation does not apply in the case whereby one has been granted or refused a UK visa.
While your, Schengen visa application has got nothing to do with your UK visa refusal(s) and it therefore should be treated in its own merit, but it's considerable important to acknowledge the fact that a refusal stamp in a passport is questionable. . .

Hi,
I ve applied for student visa twice and denied because of;
1st refusal,I was denied because i forget to explain what i did for 3 years gap between my secondary;and before i
entered University,in which i explained at my 2nd application.At my 2nd application,i also denied because of my sponsor
biz details.i.e my uncle.Now i want to use my In-law as my Uncle,who is leaving at UK as my Sponsor.Can i use him
and what and what he needs to send to me?I want to pay my remaining balance of my school fees this week.
Your advice is highly needed because i am planning to apply at mid of this month.
10KS in advance.
It's unfortunate that many genuine applicants like yourself are turned down because of the "sins" of the dubious ones, these abuse of privileges have really succeeded in making the ECOs identify visa applicants in Nigeria as potential problem on immigration matters, so the visa officers would refuse an applicant for the  most feeble excuses which are otherwise ridiculous to our sensibility.
  You said you're going to use your in-law as your uncle, i don't know what positive effect this will have because, i neither know what surnames are involved nor how you're going to do the paper work to correspond. . . Are you sure of what you're saying, But, do you really think you need to change the family relationship?

Why don't you fire your questions straight away and see if you necessarily need someone living in Spain to answer them?

It pleases the offended to see an offender acknowledges himself and his faults, and it takes real people to have the initiatives to apologise for what seems wrong to their sensibilities. Keep it up.
In spite of this, you didn't offend me, so i never took offence at you. Cheers

TravelThe Lists Of The Good And Bad Ones. . . About Travel by Vicjustice(op): 5:55pm On Oct 24, 2007
Nairaland is a versatile forum that has benefitted a lot of people in one way or the other, many thanks to Mr Seun: I also hold a lot of respect and appreciations to many proficient advisers, counselors, encouragers, and contributors to make this forum a conducive place to discourse issues, to reason together, to advertise services, to be aware of developments, to gossip about others, to meet or date with potential ones, to mention but a few.
    Many people who are in need of help and advice in times of distress, confussion and frustration have sought advice and informations from renown organisations, but to no meaningful avail, they however found this website by fluke browsing, and their queries were/are answered by proficient members whose payments are the pleasures they gain by their unaccredited professional services.
    Amongst others (some of whom i haven't yet observed or can't remember at the moment), I have a list of people who i want to appreciate according to my observations.
Note: The listing does not rate the order of importance neither does it represent the only people worthy of commendations, and it is subject to be edited either positively or negatively: but yet, these people properly merit appreciation:

Seun

. . .and others, many thanks for your jobs well done.

Unfortunately, as should be expected, there are some bad eggs in Nairaland, these elements are making this forum a sick place, some of them are here to prey on unsuspecting victims, while others are just fighting hard to make people think that they are what they are not. It's a shame that some of these guys lie for nothing except for the satisfaction that people will think that they're big dudes; in the western world, i don't see how travelling at ease makes you a big dude if not for Nigerians mentality.
   I don't wish to condemn names, hence i've minimised the list to a considerable level, and i'm hereby compelled to declare that the following are some of the problems in Nairaland TRAVEL section:
(1). . .
(2)   Dantecmu-The "young" liar caught in discrepancies, a big bragger (a very boastful and talkative (3)   person who claimed to have travelled everywhere within a short remarkable period of time)
(4)   Baba_dibia-An extremely useless someone claiming to be a voodoo doctor
(5)   Piuso and his cohorts-A desperate scammer who has contributed nothing but [b]trap topics and posts[/b]Queenamina-Understood to be a male scammer pretending to be a female tavel agent
(6)   Callycute-An un-informed thief
Vent_chill-A sweet talking scammer promising visas of all countries witout advance payment: he also operates under the username Skanty

Italian police stop blood-drinking Nigerian gang
By Malcolm Moore in Rome
Last Updated: 3:04am BST 20/10/2007



Members of a Nigerian gang, which initiated new members by forcing them to drink human blood, were arrested in Italy as they prepared to launch a machete attack on their rivals.


Police confiscated a trove of machetes
Police in the northern Italian town of Brescia mounted a night raid to stop the Eiye Confraternity, who are ethnically part of the Igbo tribe, from fighting members of the Bini tribe in Verona.

They discovered a trove of machetes and axes, some of which had been allegedly used to amputate the limbs of previous victims.

“We have been tracking this gang for two years and we arrested the men who we think are the bosses,” said Carmine Grassi, the head of the Police Flying Squad in Brescia.

Five unnamed men, aged between 25 and 35, were arrested in Brescia, Turin and the southern town of Aversa, near Naples. A sixth man, who is already in prison for another offence, has also been served a new arrest warrant.

Mr Grassi said the Eiye gangsters would be charged with several offences, including running drug, extortion and prostitution rings and cloning credit cards.

“The operation started after the Nigerian government warned us that several gang members had left Africa and spread into Europe. Other members of this gang are active in the UK, in particular, where they can get fake passports,” he said.

“The gang is like a cult. Members all have to wear blue hats, clothing and blue shoes, and they often spoke in patois or code,” he said. “A new member would slice his veins and let out some blood into a bowl.

"The other members would mix the blood with water and everyone in the gang would drink it,” he said, adding that detailed diaries had been found at the scene.

“We moved to arrest them because we heard they were planning a mission to Verona to attack their enemies.

"We found several machetes and axes, some of which had been used to hack off people’s arms,” he said.

“Recently there has been a surge of violence in Turin, with rivals fighting each other,” he said. “We have been working together with Nigerian police to identify the criminals involved. Members of the Nigerian community have also reported several episodes of violence and helped us to infiltrate the gang,” he added.

The Eiye Confraternity is only one of a series of Nigerian gangs. The cult gangs, which have names such as , Buccaneers, Sea Dogs and the Vikings, were all formed at universities in Nigeria, along ethnic lines.

The student gang members often launch vicious attacks on examination day against their rivals, and Lagos University now has to provide an armed guard on campus.

The Nigerian education minister, Oby Ezekwesili, recently said 200 students and teachers had been murdered by gangs between 1996 and 2005. In June 2002, at the University of Nigeria at Nsukka, an armed gang drove three cars into the engineering faculty and opened fire on students sitting their exams.
