SOME TIPS ABOUT LIVING IN UK

I’ll like to prepare your mind as a married man that when you get to UK,there’s higher chance for you to baby sit, ook, dishes, change pampers, get the kids set for school, etc. It’s better to get yourself acquainted with this ahead.

This is not to ridicule your personality, they are things you might need to do to keep the family running. And as the wife, have it in mind that you might not get to live that luxury life of “my husband is responsible for family upkeep”nah. Living in UK, you are meant to complement each other in every aspect.

Accommodation in UK isn’t a joke, if you are single, I advice you to look for single room en-suite or studio, furnished, all bills inclusive. Renting two bed apartment if it’s just you isn’t advisable. Check Spareroom,on the market, zoopla, Rightmove or Facebook market for rooms to let.

Pending the time you’ll be able to buy your desired item(s),check out Facebook market for cheap or free preloved/new items such as;furnitures,mattresses, beddings, kitchen utensils and the likes (I got my microwave on Facebook market for £10 and it’s as good as new).

However, be careful so as not to be scammed,I advice you do pay on delivery/pickup. with Olio aswell for free items(both new and preloved) including foodstuffs within and outside your area.

You might not be able to open standard bank until few months later, you can with online bank like Monzo or Revolut to carry out your transactions, it’s easy & safe to use. Also, with Lemonade if you want to change £ to #, easy to use as well with no charges apply.

Coming across different people with different cultural backgrounds, it’s advisable to ask individual what and how they would like to be addressed. Don’t make assumptions, people get offended if they are addressed wrongly.

Be time conscious, if you are to resume work by 19:00 to relief others, ensure you arrive few minutes earlier. The person you are to relief at work also has childminder or husband at home to relief for work as well.

Don’t try to force or change your accent while communicating. The more you change or force British accent the more you make communication difficult for everyone. Speak gently and clearly, believe me, they will hear you more than faking British accent. And if you can’t hear them, in a polite way ask them to speak slowly and gently so you can understand & they would be glad to do so.

Job wise, don’t be selective at first, get yourself something legit doing, all jobs here are stressful, at least you’ll be able to update your CV for future sake. I hope you get what I mean.

Let the words “PLEASE AND THANK YOU” be your favourite quotes daily, it goes a long way and they might pave way for you.

Don’t engage in gossips, they don’t keep secret here, whatever you say will be used against you later on.

If you have BRITISH HEART FOUNDATION store around you, they sell nice stuffs as low as £1, pop in there and minimise your spending.

Stay tuned for next post.

Thanks a lot for the detailed guide. For family with a child, is it best they travel with 3 adults? That is a wife, husband and grand Ma. What's the cost implication and will the VISA be approved for the Grandma?

TheNiceGuy:
I'm seeing #Freejude everywhere, why?

Why should someone arrested for cyber crime be freed because he s a particular Canditate of your choice?
Yet you celebrated the incarceration of hush puppy

That's crude Hypocrisy.


But what's with OBIdients and criminality

From Hudenyi whom Oxford Uni axed because of fraudulent book lunch, misogynism, sexism and racketeering.
Now to Jude for Yahoo Yahoo

Well it's not surprising, Obi has penchant for criminality

Wanted to ask if you were sick or something. Then I ed a post where you have to let go of your senses to a certain party.

The law states that the police force should not detain someone for more than 48 hours before taking the person to court.

Continue acting blind to what MC Oluomo did in Lagos. When justice becomes selective, it's no longer justice. It becomes witch hunt.

Faber:
OBIdients means one thing " those who believe in the political ideology of His Excellency Peter Obi"... Just like the Rastafarians believe in Ras Tafari, that's Haile Selessaie, former emperor of Ethiopia.

I don't know why people are attaching Obidients to every dick tom and harry running under Labour party. Let me tell you many criminals and opportunists were also running on Labour Party platform across many states...we know them
This explains why many people were at home yesterday. Peter Obi was not on the ballot...had it been he was on the ballot...we would have given him millions of votes than the one we gave him on 25th February.


Peace✌️

They fail to understand that it's not about the party. But about PO.

Tinubuwins2023e:
I stand with FFK, Bayo and everyone attacking igbos in Lagos. Atiku is a fool and his statement is political and not that he likes igbos. Na future of igbos to his political relevance he dey fight for. Mumu

As you stand by injustice to a tribe and ethic group, may the same fate befall on you in everything you do be it business or place of work. May you be victimized based on how you look, act and place of origin. Amen.

incandescentena:


My dear Aisha Yesufu, do not drag yourself in the mud with this un-cultured, sick, ignorant, abusive, smelling son of a midget, Bashir Elrufai.

Let me not drag his wife into these, but she must be a very fo0ling gold digger Igbo woman to marry this mentally unbalanced Bashir

Wagwanbrethren:
Oboy, LP is a finished party. I thought those online wailers swore to take over the governorship election! 🤣

I still dey ask, so wetin come be the useless noise when they couldn't win anything? Losers! 😛🤣
APC dey give them backshot home and abroad! 🤣

You really do not understand the movement. The movement is not about LP as a party. It's about PO as the candidate. If you still don't get it and you are expecting LP to win in governorship election per states, then you are the one confused.

Jollyjustcome:
I hope you all see what this 2023 election has turned into.... because of the ambition of one man.
We had warned Nigerians that this 86yrs old man has greed that is insatiable.
Tinubu would go to any length to hold power, just as he has held onto Lagos for 24years.

Tinubu remains the only governor since 1999 to hold onto a state for 24 years. Using criminal tricks like Bribery, cronyism, assasinations, and tribalism; he holds Lagos and continues to milk Lagos. This election was an attempt to free Lagos of Tinubu's grip; and we all see the result- ethnic war.

Today, hitherto peaceful Lagos is on fire. This is the start of yet another slide into abyss that Tinubu's ambition has caused. As we can see, Lagos State is on fire because Sanwo Olu, a Tinubu stooge, does not want to lose. Sanwo Olu forced ethnic division to stand a chance at reelection, and to hold on to Tinubu's empire.

Buhari must be careful at this point. And make sure power goes to the rightful winner- Peter Obi. Else there would be no Nigeria if Tinubu is sworn in.

Nigeria must be very careful.

Wrong write up. It's Atiku's ambition that has destroyed Nigeria. If only he allowed the south produce their flag bearer. This election would have been history.

Naira20:
If all OBIdients with bank s in UBA start moving their monies to other banks.
All businesses of political cronies of Tinubu can be shaken.
There are subtle ways to fight the establishment without shooting a bullet.

It doesn't work that way. We are not in an Anarchy.

lhordspy:


Are you trying to tell me igbos voted sanwo olu?

And you called AriseTV unbiased? Surprising !

I can speak for myself. I am not Yoruba. And yes I voted for Sanwo Olu.

lhordspy:
Some people still dont get this. Maybe because they are very new to Nigeria politics or first time voters.

During the Presidential campaign. The candidate of the Labour party, Peter Obi exploited and explored our diversity, he capitalised on our religious differences in particular to instigate hate among the the two major religion we have in Nigeria. CAN, PFN turned themselves into a political group. Especially General overseers, they turned the altar into a political stage to preach politics and propagate hate against Muslim candidates.

Peter Obi's victory in Lagos during the presidential election wasn't just from the igbos alone but from 'some' brain clouded, emotional religious sentimental yoruba christ!ans who were sold with the Jihad bullcraps. After the victory, instead of building bridges, extending hand of friendship with the yourbas that voted against Obi, making them reason by drawing them closer and also at sametime solidifying the alliances with yorubas on their side already, that voted for obi. The southe@sterners, feeling pompous and inflated came with the campaign of 'taking over lagos' . .. They ran twitter spaces, host interviews aided by their propaganda media house, AriseTV, scribbles and tweets were churned out about how they will sack all the obas and takeover the whole place.

How can you expect the yorubas who sided with you against their tribesman, Tinubu in the presidential election to feel about it? Happy that you want to takeover their ancestral land and mock them with it in return, just like you use the word; 'Afonja ' consistently to make mockery of our loss in Ilorin.

Sanwo Olu victory was not as a result of tribalism. The yorubas fought together as one again, and they won. Different yorubas from different religion, political parties, and across all board left our differences asides at the corner, came together to 'rescue ourselves'. (once bitten, twice shy)

At first it was cruise, then it became aggressive, now it is uncontrollable.. Cant even be tamed nor can they reason well. It is all noise, zero thinking and strategy. The Obidient movement is turning out to be a curse to Peter Obi and the hardworking innocent igbos who committed no crime but paying for the sins of the headless mob.

It's you that actually don't get it. Sanwo Olu will win because he deserved to win and has done well for Lagos. People of all tribes voted for Sanwo Olu. People voted for Peter Obi over Tinubu because of character, strength and competence. People needed change at the national level and not necessarily at the state level.

Peter Obi stated it consistently that he shouldn't be voted for based on tribe or religion. It's quite appalling that you can still attribute religion to his campaign.

It's also shocking that you can drag Arise TV who has been the most neutral and unbiased media for the last decade into this sentiment.

What do you think will happen if it was a Christian - christian candidate? Do you think that Nigeria will still remain one if they won? Now, if this can't be tolerated from christians , why should it be tolerated from Muslims?

It's also shocking that you are dragging CAN into this election. CAN that has always dissociated itself from the political brouhaha all through this electioneering period.

Your write up is biased. It will be fooling of you to think that Sanwo Olu won because of Yoruba votes.

Parachoko:
You come from far away land

Settle on someone else land and you start to dey live there peacefully

Just because of how comfortable the Indigenes of the land make you feel, you start to dey call the indigenous people land "No Man's Land" because dey made you fully comfortable

And you expect him to dey smile with you?

Not in London, Paris, Shanghai, Tokyo, Moscow, Berlin or any other cities will the indigenous people smile at you

Evidence of people who are not Lagos Indigenes and claiming "Lagos is No Man's Land" full Twitter.

Why did the UK insist on leaving the EU?

Most times, I struggle to understand the concept of no man's land. Do you know why? Because some things are as irrelevant as the P in psychology.

Most of the people carrying these things on their head don't even have a land in Lagos. Most so called indigenes have sold their father's land to non indigenes. So you see how irrelevant the argument is.

Lagos is a Yoruba land. But imagine 90% of the lands are owned by non indigenes. How relevant is the statement?

Make money and buy properties. That's what that matters. Na agbero whe no get shi shi de reason who get land and who no get land.

Politically, who rule Lagos will be determined by the Yorubas. We all know that. Sanwo Olu deserved a second term. Won't be surprised if he won. He was meant to. But why the violence? Why bully someone not to vote in 2023? Then it's okay because it's backed by the owners of the land.

If you see no issue with this, then it's only a matter of time before Nigeria delve to Rwanda conflict. I strongly Believe you don't even know what that means. Well, google is your friend.

NaijaRoyalty:
PDP leading in Kaduna and Zamfara while NNPP is annihilating APC in Kano .

Tinubu might just be the last APC President. That's if he's even sworn-In.

Dapo abiodun , APC governor of Ogun state is being served hot hot beating of his life in Ogun state ..

Na the verb whe you use describe Kano de sweet me .

That's the perfect term

Eriokanmi:
Someone me in saying...God bless Ambode. He's the only one who ed us at Alimosho. Alimosho is now a modern city to behold, with huge estate developments going on. Massive modern buildings, made possible by Ambode's massive road projects.

We don't know sanwoolu here and I dare anyone to point to one single project which sanwoolu has done here in 4 years. O kan wa sanwo eko ni. I came home last night so I'd vote today. I took the below pictures as I was taking a walk to my PU this morning. You can only see such in Lekki and Ajah axis. On GRV we stand today and if he messes up, na just 4 years he go do. Alimosho has the largest population in the state to decide the winner in every election. These areas you're seeing in pictures used to be a dungeon of wild animals. See houses springing up due to road network connecting lagos and ogun state, courtesy ambode.

I give it to Ambode. He did wonders in Alimosho.

BlackAdams007:
Even at that, do you think everyone working in a shopping mall will have money to buy an oven? or anyone whose father is a police officer in Nigeria must be well-to-do, in this corrupt country, how much do you ever think they pay at a shopping mall??
Nonsense!


No hard feelings🤗 Please me for your Academic assignments, chat up on WhatsApp- see number on my signature below 👇

These days I don't try to argue or put the facts right again. We deserve what we get. People think that going to work everyday is living. Not knowing that most of us are just trying to survive. If we had our way, we won't be doing what we are doing.

He discussed with a lady who stated what her problem was. He helped her solve her problem. People are spilling trash about her not being needy. I don de explain...
Abeg make everybody getat.

Faber:
INEC can give printing contract to a company owned by APC politician; we are cool with that.

Peter Obi cannot give money( his own money) to a girl he met at Labour Party headquarters in Abuja, an Obidient girl for that matter; we must drag Peter Obi for that

Welcome to the World's most useless country. Mad people way dey this country 120million a swear..

LandMann:
SOUTH SOUTH RESULTS FROM MARK ESSIEN COLLATION

What you don't understand is that on the average, Rivers state and Delta state produces at least 2million votes during election.

However, in this election with more PVCs collected, these states produced less than a million votes each. It explains 2 things.

* Massive disenfranchisement of votes via no election holding at several PUs

* Massive reduction of the actual votes casted or transfer of votes from one party to another.

Same issue persist across several states.

That's the argument.

We won't have been here if INEC did what it said it would do i.e the results on the IREV after they have been announced at the PU. The results ed would not be mutilated because everybody's PU results are not mutilated as at when it's announced. That's not too much to ask in 2023.

I hope we channel this energy to follow up on what our politicians have achieved while they rule.

LegendHero:
Obi scored 1/10.

He made 10 claim and nine (9) of them are grossly inaccurate/cannot be verified.

This man legitly lies at every given stage. This is now starting to seem like he’s suffering from some form of derangement.

So you believe igbos gave Obi 500k plus votes in Lagos? Make we de apply wisdom in thinking.

Thamesbridge:


Those are not her pictures. Read last paragraph to under how those pictures came about

Seen now. My apologies.

https://nairaland.unblockandhide.com/7372880/canada-humble-miss-cheap-nigerian

With reference to this thread I made when I knewly moved to Canada.

I have some gist for you. Eight months after I moved to Canada I was able to taste pussy, thanks to a beautiful Uganda lady.

Lemme tell you, when I was in Nigeria, I used to hear that oyibo dey rush black men. When I got here I realised it was all fallacies and lies. Oyibo women doesn't give a fvck about black men except you are a celebrity, rich athletic or sports personality or one rich popular dude.

The same pussy I change every week in Nigeria was what took me Eight months to see here.

There's money here once you are working and there are Jobs everywhere in Canada, but working without pussy sometimes is not really cool.

Some of them can be tempting, while I was waiting for bus at a bus stop, two girls were dancing and shaking yansh for me, not that they like or want you, but they just wanna do it. Just ignore them and swallow saliva, you will be alright

Really not cool posting her picture. If you see nothing wrong, then I wish same to your female siblings.

abefeabebi:
60000 minimum wage, scammer just like his boss

But to be honest, you need even more than this to survive in Lagos.

PapaMama9ja:
My brother i have decided to only sell cars that are 2013 and above for this year and will put my cut off to 2015 by next year if the policy remains same. I have totally collapsed my capital to just 3 cars instead of doing smallies in large numbers. Nothing left really for small businesses

Whats the least range in price of cars and the model. Make I know if buying of car is still attainable within 2 yrs

headbasher96:
The man went to change meat🍖 from our soup that the one my mum gave Him has a bone in it

You are joking right? WTF

Mohamed123:
President Moslem v president Muslim SP about to be Muslim even speaker is note save

Nigerian Christian una Weldon ooo

It's is actually irrelevant at this point. Whatever they wish to do, we go survive 4 years. Even though Nairaland is a faceless forum, your moniker should be polite or neutral to religious activities.

bigsmoke2:
Sanwoolu will win this election. He may not get a distinction on his score card but definitely a . GRV is a Scammer fishing for power. He hasn't had any platform to demonstrate competence. No track records of successfully demonstrating managerial capacity whether in public or private sector. He is gbadebo when it's convenient. Tomorrow he is Chinedu, next tomorrow he is Patrick. I voted Obi because of track record. He has had a platform in the past and he demonstrated good principles and showed capacity. Even before politics Obi has managed several businesses successfuly. Make GRV Go rest abeg Governor is not by doing end sars and going to MIT deziani also went to Cambridge.

Abi o. This election isn't about Party but about individuals. Sanwo Olu may not be perfect but I like him.

Macelliot:
THE PROPHESY.

* Tinubu will buy the system.
* The system(INEC) will declare Tinubu winner.
* Obi will cry.
* Obi Will go to Court.
* TInubu will be arrested before swearing-in.
* Interim President will rule Nigeria. From May 29th.
* Court will declared OBi the rightful winner.

Make I save am

renderme:
These are currently circulating on twitter. The LP Lagos state candidate is half Yoruba/half Igbo and is an IPOB fan who s Nnamdi kanus sit at home orders.

Update: he calls yorubas 'afonja' too.

I didn't see where he called Yorubas Afonjas. The cap there is Tinubu ers who are likely Afonjas. Any tribe can Tinubu which is applicable.

Not yorubas specifically. As usual, una don start una nonsense. Time will tell.

ogmask:


Can we get results from areas where the manipulations took place?
I argued with my friend that the results were all doctored, and he told me to check my PU online and compare it with what I have on my phone. I did and it is the same thing. I need at least one hard copy that is different from what inec ed. So far no solid proof especially in Phc. I need proof to advance my argument please.

These are doctored results in Rivers.

Tissaia:
Tinubu wining might be better than Atiku wining... What they hate the most is Islam
So, Muslim Muslim ticket wining is awesome. They Obi_idiots are responsible for Tinubu wining anyways. Obi_idiots let celebrate tinubu's victory together

Gbaja is a Muslim. Zulum is a Muslim. But if it was these two contesting under APC, most people won't really care about their religion and will vote for them. You can't have a candidate that is having more than one old age sickness and a vice that is clueless in economic matters to lead a nation where our economy is in shambles.
It makes absolutely no sense.

Christistruth00:
Please tell Peter Obi to Concede and Congratulate Tinubu

It is Elections not War

Concede to this? Make we de apply wisdom sometimes.
