Moana:Has the native doctor helped you to secure a visa not to talk of citizenship. Some people amazes me with funny post. How can one become a citizen of another country in 6 months? Haba! Tell that to the marines.. |
Moana:No be only a native doctor, na foreign doctor. Shey e be Consula Officer ni? |
Moana:Scam! I bet you are kidding |
esosa4real:It works like fire. A sure bet! |
Atmmachine:You are right but there are certain things you are not privilege to as a Permanent Resident. 1. You cannot vote in an election. 2. You cannot aspire to become the President. 3. You cannot become a Police Officer. 4. I think there are certain employment that are based on your status. If you are not a citizen, you cannot get those employments. 5. If you commit certain crimes as a permanent resident, you can be deported but a citizen cannot be deported because he is a son of the soil. etc PS: If you come in as a fiance(e) of an American citizen, you will get a temporary permanent resident card for 2 years. After the 2 years, you will need to file for the removal of the condition (you need to apply for removal of condition on the PR card 90 days before the 2 years lapse). Then you will get a new PR card for 10 years but you can apply for your citizenship in once your marriage is 3 years old.If you come in with a DV lottery, you will need 5 years to become a citizen. What you get is PR card from USCIS after a while you arrive in the country. |
Prof. Jega is addressing Nigerians and the world right now. |
Jega about to announce the result...Channels TV |
Icecream4U:That is what is called plea bargaining. The guys that testified against him are going to jail too but will do less time because they helped the Police to nail the arrow-head of the crime. |
[quote author=Glamrock post=31636787][/quote]OP, you are not entirely right. 1. Is it only African Americans that eat the GMOs in the US? You know inorganic food is expensive. Where is the link to the suppose science study? 2. Weather- 9 months cold? Where can you get 9 months cold in the USA? Well, you are not entirely correct on this too. The North and Midwest have the most harshest of the weather. The South is more friendly weather wise. Florida, Hawaii, Texa, California etc. 3. Floride in water! 100% correct on this. But you can buy a pack of bottled water for $2.99 (24 bottles). 4. You can learn a language anywhere you are. It not compulsory to be in another country to learn their language. We have people in Nigeria that learnt French and other foreign languages right in Nigeria. 5 (6) Materialism is everywhere. It not an American problem. Check people that are addicted to technology all over the world. Nigeria, I know of 2go and facebook. 6. (9) Under development is the bane of Africa. Africa can be like the West and even better but for the kind of people in leadership. No strong institution and it is very difficult for Africans in diaspora to change the mentality of people in Africa. Clash of idealogies! Many will like to come back and contribute but when the consider the pros and cons, you will be better of in the West. I watched a Nigeria-American NASA scientist the other day on the TV and you want such to come back? No way! 10. Discrimination is worse in Africa. In Nigeria, Ibos don't like/trust the Yorubas, Hausa and Ibo have mistrust and so on. Even Among the same ethnic group, you have wars and killings erupting at the slightest misunderstanding, Ife v Modakeke, Amuleri v Aguileri and so on. Last bullet, blacks have killed more blacks than the whites. Stay put wherever you are and come for tourism. |
The bible says " Test every spirit if they be of God". How do you know the girl is being possesed by the Holy Spirit and not an evil spirit? Spirit of discernment is needed to know who is who. Remember a girl in the book of Acts crying after Paul and his partner saying this men are the servants of the Most High God. The girl was possesed by evil spirit and she was actually correct in her proclamation about Paul but she is not of God. I'm not saying the girl is speaking the mind of God or not, remember to test every spirit. |
MadCow1:Guy, you are funny. I'm laughing hard after reading through your profile. |

Geopolitics Key to South Africa’s $100 Billion Nuclear Plan By Paul Burkhardt and Franz Wild Dec 22, 2014 3:41 PM “Geopolitical and industrial relations between South Africa and the nuclear-vendor countries will play an important role,” Des Muller, the head of Johannesburg-based building company Group Five Ltd.’s nuclear construction division, said in an e-mailed response to questions Dec. 17. “It does with all major infrastructure projects and more so on nuclear infrastructures where reliance on nuclear safety and construction knowhow is paramount.” South Africa could pay as much as $100 billion spread out over a period of 15 years for nuclear reactors to provide 9,600 megawatts of power, Muller said. The continent’s biggest electricity user is trying to make up for more than a decade of underinvestment in power generation, which is already leading to recurring blackouts and stifling investment in the economy, which relies on energy-intensive industries such as underground mining and the smelting of chrome and aluminum. Atomic Power Looking Better and Worse The government hopes new nuclear plants can help it reduce its reliance on coal for about 80 percent of its power and address future energy needs as aging infrastructure needs replacing. Revitalize Industry “The South African government has stressed that through the new build process we wish to revitalize a nuclear industry in South Africa with a view to long-term self-sufficiency,” Xolisa Mabhongo, group executive corporate services at the South African Nuclear Energy Corp., or Necsa, said in an e-mailed response to questions. “Therefore localization is one of the key considerations.” Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd., South Africa’s state-owned utility that generates about 45 percent of the continent’s electricity and has installed capacity of about 42,000 megawatts, runs the 1,800-megawatt Koeberg nuclear plant, which supplies half of the Western Cape province’s power. The company is spending 500 billion rand ($43 billion) through 2017 adding 11,000 megawatts of capacity to the grid, including new power plants Medupi and Kusile, and servicing an aging fleet of plants. The country’s Pelindaba nuclear research plant near the capital, Pretoria, is home to the world’s second-largest manufacturer of medical radio-isotopes that help diagnose and treat some cancers. It’s also the site of a weapons program that resulted in South Africa becoming a nuclear power during apartheid. The country has since dismantled its nuclear weapons. Head-Start Russia may already have a head-start as PresidentJacob Zuma fosters stronger economic cooperation with the country and China in a shift from his western and Africa-leaning predecessor Thabo Mbeki, Robert Besseling, a Johannesburg-based analyst with IHS Country Risk, said in an interview. The Soviet Union and then Russia historically kept close ties with the ruling African National Congress from the days in which it was battling against the apartheid regime. Under Zuma’s watch, South Africa was incorporated into the BRICS alliance with Brazil, Russia, India and China. “Considering the much-stronger relationship between the Zuma presidency and the Russian government than under the previous South African administration, it looks much more likely that the expansion of the nuclear program will be awarded to Russia,” Besseling said. Agreement Negotiation Zuma has already been attacked by newspapers including the Johannesburg-based Mail & Guardian and the opposition Democratic Alliance. He personally negotiated a September framework agreement with Russia, including only his closest advisers, the Mail & Guardian reported on Sept. 26, citing government and ANC officials it didn’t identify. The president’s office denies this. The Democratic Alliance is appealing the denial of its request to see the document through the Promotion of Access to Information Act. After signing agreements allowing for nuclear cooperation with Russia, France, the U.S., China and South Korea, and conducting technical workshops with delegations from the countries, the Department of Energy has met with companies from those countries to discuss the most important elements in the project: technology, safety, financing and how much of it will be built locally. The department is in the process of determining the procurement rules, including whether the bidding process will be open to anyone or by invite only. ‘Upper Hand’ “The political relations could trump the technical” on a national and global scale, Anne Fruhauf, southern Africa analyst at New York-based risk adviser Teneo Intelligence, said in a phone interview. Russia is the frontrunner, not least because of Zuma’s stronger orientation to the Brazil, Russia, India and China block, South Africa is a part of, Fruhauf said. “A joint bid between the Chinese and French could perhaps give them the upper hand,” she said. ANC spokesman Zizi Kodwa’s mobile phone wouldn’t take any answer-phone messages and he didn’t respond to e-mailed questions. France’s Areva this year beat Toshiba Corp.’s Westinghouse Electric to a 4.3 billion-rand contract to replace steam generators at South Africa’s Koeberg nuclear plant. That experience and a failed court appeal of the decision has left Westinghouse unsure whether it will bid for the larger nuclear project. “Westinghouse is considering our options at this time based on our recent experience in RSA and on our experience in the last round of bidding for new nuclear plants in RSA,” the nuclear-power builder said in a Nov. 21 reply to questions, referring to the Republic of South Africa. “Nuclear projects are very large and can impact international relationships between the associated countries.” Arms Deal There are 37 of Rosatom’s VVER reactors that use pressurized water operating outside of Russia, including 18 units in five European Union countries, according to the company. Areva has built more than 100 reactors around the world, with its EPR design under construction in Finland, France and China. Westinghouse said its AP1000 reactor uses “the world’s safest commercial technology.” One risk is that the billions involved in the nuclear program could become fertile ground for corruption, according to Fruhauf. “The scale of the commitment and the potential for corruption is there for all to see,” she said. “The administration must ensure a competitive process to avoid allegations of wrongdoing.” Graft Conviction It wouldn’t be the first time. South Africa’s $4.2 billion purchase of jets, warships and helicopters from companies including ThyssenKrupp AG and BAE Systems Plc, agreed in 1999, is being probed by a judicial commission following persistent allegations of corruption in the awarding of the contracts. In 2003, Tony Yengeni, a former lawmaker for the ruling ANC, was found guilty of defrauding parliament by failing to disclose a discount on a luxury car from one of the companies bidding for the arms contract. Splitting the bid is “definitely possible,” though limited by whether the difference in technology between countries would be economically feasible, Viktor Polikarpov, Rosatom’s regional vice president for central and southern Africa, said in an e-mailed response to questions. “One must also take into consideration that the depth of localization and the volume of technology transition is in direct correlation to the number of reactor units built by a single vendor,” he said. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-12-21/geopolitics-key-to-south-africa-s-100-billion-nuclear-project.html |
lalasticlala:We gave him a chance by voting for him already. What chance is the man of God talking about again? |
toshmann:Lies! You find people of all countries in all parts of the world migrating everyday. No matter how good your country may be, you`ll still have people leaving for reasons best known to them. You have Canadians,British, Chinese, Japanese,Americans etc working in the Middle East oil industry, so if migrating is good for so be it and if not all join. It is all about good pay anyway...so follow the money! |
Do not cast your pearl before swine...enough said! |
An average black man have been brainwashed by the media, falsified history and anything you can think of. Whether you are black or white does not matter when it comes to matter of intellectual, achievement,invention. Slavery set the black man thousands of years backwards and you still see it in African American community and Africa continent (mental slavery). If we don't wake up as a people, there is no hope for the black man. |
