Zahra29:


I agree

I just ed during COVID when councils were scrambling to house homeless people temporarily in hotels and the like so as to reduce the spread. I imagine most are back on the streets now.

I think the key "benefit" of settled status is freedom from immigration control and being able to work anywhere, be self employed etc without any restrictions, and able to provide fully for one's self and family cos most state benefits are shikini in comparison

Se how Zahra started using shikini lol!!

Ayosharon4321:
HELLO HOUSE,

A follow up to my post concerning the university that assured me ission for summer, it’s university of Wisconsin Milwaukee. I’ve been researching and just seen that it’s not black friendly. Please where are danger zones for blacks? And where’s more safer(states/cities )
Thanks

There's racism everywhere in the US

Best you look for universities or cities that are immigrants friendly. High population of intl students. Presence of intl students association
can help
Also note some states have open carry laws which means they can carry weapons openly

bemagnify:
Please seniors I need your help. I have asked this before but no one answered me.

I really need a fully-funded PhD scholarship in the USA.

Educational Background

I've got an LLM in technology law from a UK university, a Comptia Security+ certificate, and a mix of experience - 2 years in cybersecurity, 5 years as a Nigerian lawyer, and 3 years as a UK paralegal. I'm currently based in the UK. Any tips on how I can make this happen?

You research for for PhD in a US university for the course you want.

There's no short cut to this. Start your search 12-18 months before you want to start.

Giftedheart16:



if you read my post I said I wanted to go undercover and be sure about my findings,do you want me to post the pictures of the girls,or the name of the clinic.i dropped landmarks area so people in Benin can .or her voice note threaten her Surrogate with the police and lawyers if their family knows about it.
I can't take a risk step because my life is in danger too.or should I post video of her clinic lab or the room she insert the sperm with her phone touch light or the living conditions of the Surrogates.

I'm not there to work as her Surrogate,I said I wants to work with Dr Ivy because she I trust.thanks

Whatever evidence you have please back it up on Google drive if you have a Gmail .

Then leave Benin. Your safety first.

After you're are back safely in Lagos then you can change your number close whatever social media s you have then. Then you can share evidence you have with a blog or investigative journalist.
You can also tag Edo ministry of health.
For that regulator to come to he clinic then it means even the authorities are on to Dr A

Don't worry time will come and you will have the opportunity to share your evidence.
Just be patient.

BIGSAM24:
Good afternoon Mr justwise and Disguy. I have my interview coming up this next month, I got an invitation letter from my brother in USA and the letter was noticrized by their court in California. All documents are fil by me. Now I want to know what to prepare for because this people are funny and behaved somehow most times and you can't predict them. Want to know what to look out for during my interview.just advice can be of help.

Ask in the US visa thread..this isn't visa thread

ayolinger:
Hi Guys. So my US Student Visa expired and I’m trying to do a drop shipping, but I want to do it without coming back to Nigeria. I want to ask if this is possible. Am I required to comeback to submit it myself and exit the US and re-enter with my renewed Visa? Or I can send my port down to Nigeria and have it dropped on my behalf without any consequences?

I mean won’t my I-94 give me away that I didn’t leave the US?

Please I need genuine advice as I’m trying to avoid the cost and logistics of coming down to Nigeria, and also the wait till the visa is issued.

Thank you.

You don't need to go to Nigeria and you can not do dropbox
You can attend in person at US embassy closes to you in the US which would be Mexico or Canada. Book appointment on the US embassy site for either country. You would need to apply for a Canada visa to go to the Canada. That can be done by post then you go to Canada and attend interview.

Lastly note that as long as your in the US and are still in school then your F1 visa is still valid even though it has expired.
You only need to renew it if you have plans to travel out of the US if you don't it's fine.

AKALAMAGBO:
It’s not compulsory… They sent me a letter about twice, I told them I’m not interested and I don’t watch TV.

They threatened brick and stone but I didn’t answer them and they stopped sending letters….

You're not the OP

Did the OP say he does not have a TV? He only said he doesn’t have a TV licence

@hustla
Logged in to say congrats on your degree

skankhunt101:

Wonders shall never end, in this our youkay........ 🤣😂

Man wins the lottery, spends all the money (within weeks), is now begging to go back on benefits (to collect money from all your taxes)........ 🤑💰😂

So this site regurgitated a story from 2017?

Cyberknight:


Agreed. So those who are genuine claimants displaced by conflict with nowhere else to turn should have no problem enduring while their claims are determined.

Yep

Zahra29:


Agreed, even legal immigrants struggle in places like and Belgium and many are forced into the black market to survive.

UK and US are very different though. I think the US is one of the only places where an illegal immigrant can "thrive". They even have sanctuary states where they have the right to drive, go to school etc, working under the table is normalised to an extent and there are large communities e.g. Hispanics that provide safe havens

The UK is very regulated now - you have to provide identity and residency documents for pretty much everything. The only area that is easy for an illegal immigrant is enrolling their children into school because the government/courts have ruled that children should not be prevented from attending school, regardless of their immigration status.

Yep. In the US you can open a business buy property just pay your taxes.
Obviously there are some things you can't do but you can thrive.

Zahra29:


Thank you. It really beggars belief.

Let's not forget that asylum accommodation tends to be of lower quality and in cheaper areas - very very unlikely to be London or even south east England. Asylum seekers cannot choose where they are put up and they can be moved by the home office at any time to a new part of the country where they don't know anyone. Even if the children have to change schools, you're on your own.

Many times it's shared accommodation such as hostels or a bed and breakfast. Many even have to share rooms with strangers. And this luxury is only while their application is being considered; as soon as it's decided on - accepted or refused - the claimants have to leave the asylum accommodation.

It was decades ago that ppl got more lush accomodations especially those with large families.

For under the table work I think those who have Asian families in the UK can probably still get good jobs that pay is decent. If a good number of their family own their own businesses then that's easier for them not to be detected. My opinion though

Any tips on get port picture to meet ICAO standard
I'm doing application for a relative and I'm still getting head tilt error.

I don tire.
The relative is elderly so trying to get them to go to a studio to do this is kinda hard besides it doesn't guarantee I won't have the same issue so I want to work with the photo I have

excondido:
I became lactose intolerant sometimes around 2014, with plenty of symptoms until I found out my constant diarrhoea was my inability to produce lactase, the enzyme that breaks down lactose in milk. Though challenging, I was able to take dairy products out of my diet since then and I have been fairing pretty ok. Though I loose body weight from time to time due to my sensitive intestine. My handy medicine for quick relieve from bloating, diarrhoea etc are amoxyl, doxycycline and omeprazole.
Over the years I stopped taking alcohol and any herbal medicine due to the sensitivity of my gastrointestinal system.

Even soda drinks too need to be stopped. I find warm or room temperature water before you sleep and first thing on the morning is helpful habit

I dont do milk too, almond milk is fair but I'm not regular with milk. My gut likes it that way.
Okro for some reason is very calm on the gut

You mightt need to consider growing your own food....or find organic food market in Lagos. Opefarms are on Instagram. Strictly organic.

And learning how to cook that way you can control cross contamination. Limit eating out.
Diversify your carbs to help your diet.

No processed foods
But try
Irish potatoes
Green plantains or simply boli with oji or fish
Sweet potato boiled or as flour
Cassava boiled or as flour
You can bake with sweet potato flour.
Other things such as banana bread or Sweet potato bread can be cake for you.

Lots of veggies too. Garden eggs, egg plant.
Try beans in different ways. Beans and sweet potato. Also quinoa is good then chickpeas. Find them in Indian shops it's last long and swells up quickly.

Are you sensitive to corn as well?

I have mild gluten sensitivity so I've tried these above and it's helped a lot.

Although I occasionally eat bread it's like once every 3months if there is no other option.
Millet too is good you might need to Chek for crosscontamination with wheat.
I drink a lot more warm water a
I find the commercial wheat has the biggest issue.
Especially because they use fast rising yeast.

I can tolerate wholemeal wheat better. If I toast whole-wheat it's even better.

But I gave up semo altogether.
I still eat pasta but I rinse put the starch like twice before I eat it.
I take beans just once every two months cos it causes gastrointestinal issues.

Other things to add to diet.

I also introduced foods with pre and probiotics.
I no longer take omeprazole.
I drink water with slices of ginger in it. Fresh please. Also chewing ginger raw has helped with gastrointestinal inflammation

The Japanese have this thing called Kimchi. Fantastic for the gut.
Kambucha is also good.

Finally sugar is inflammatory too.

TANID:
the Same Problem I'm Facing Now Me and My Wife And Daughter and That hitches mostly Happened It The Midle Of Night

It's the heat

Also wash ypu bedsheet more frequently

Rexie96:


Use this and thank me later, go to any pharmacy and ask for Benzanoate... check the name on the image cover. It happened to my girl and this killed it. And use amocillin anti biotics pills too in other to kill the virus from inside. She will see result in 2days. It burns a little

They can try the benzyl benzoate. Even though that concen6is strong it will sting so maybe dilute it with water


Please stop telling g people to take antibiotics. Unless your doctor recommends or prescribes it.

And YOIR CHEMIST OR NL POSTERS ARE NOT DOCTORS PLS.
Antibiotics drug abuse is a BIG ADDICTION problem in Nigeria

capricornlady:
Mods Seun kindly share to frontpage

No need for front page.

The mixture that lady recommended is anti inflammatory it will help reduce the inflammation which I what is causing the t pain. Turmeric and ginger are anti inflammatory.and the cost is low.

If she can afford to see a physio therapists regularly that will help too.

Arthritis can be quite bad making it impossible to move so the earlier she takes these remedies to reduce inflammation the better.

TheWinterBird:
You're sleeping with your ex again knowing she's still married and knowing you're engaged to another woman? Both of you and your ex are no good. As for your current gf/fiancée whom you've been dating for 2-years and have been cheating on, you didn't realise she had all these negatives until this your married ex (and babymama, as she already has a child for you) came into the picture again, smh. With what you've posted, she sounds like a much better person than you and deserves better.

I would've advised you to look for someone else entirely because you've ruined your current relationship with your waywardness and you're on a long tin if you think your married ex will leave her husband for you and even if she does and you marry her I doubt your marriage will work out because it'll be established on deceitful grounds. However, you're no husband material, so telling you to look for someone else is no good idea because you will just cheat on them like how you're cheating on your current fiancée, likely with this your married ex that you're stuck on. My advice is for you to forget about any marriage because your type does not know how sacred the institution is.

Is the ex married though because her so called husband is also married abroad.
Abandonment is also a reason for divorce
Not disclosing that you impotent is grounds for divorce

TITILOLA88:
Hi, i totally understand you and your statement is true, the companion is not for me but my mum.
It is the first time she will be traveling such a distance and she and I will rest easy knowing someone is assisting her with reading the signs and locating her gates.
Now, back to my question, are you traveling on the 22nd of May to Winnipeg with Air ? Thanks.

Tell your Mum to ask for airport assistance. They will escort her every where. If you booked her ticket that option is there with the airline. They will wheel her around at each airport. Check her ticket and add airport assistance.

Pleasant19:

Gbese. This one hard o. The lady wicked sha. Unfortunately if it’s the child care pilot program, the lady doesn’t even have to work for the employer who gave them a letter of employment.

Ha, how so?
Employer basically filed for you and you're not obligated to work for them

Wouldn't the pregnancy have come up in the medical exam or at the border. Shouldn't they as employer have some access to the medical report?

ReesheesuKnack:


Same way Nigeria lays claims to Kemi Adeosun, Kemi Badenoch, Anthony Joshua, Tammy Abraham, Bukayo Saka, Fikayo Tomori, John Boyega, etc…

Dunno about Badenoch

The others we claim

PopQueenAgency:


You heard zbout a case like this before?

Find an anonymous number and send her a text.

For him to brag then he'll be found out.

Personally I don't let people bragg about such things in my presence especially if I know your spouse. I won't be your alibi or cover or listening partner to prove you are sharp. I tell ppl if I know your spouse and you bring evidence near me I go talk

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13148651/amp/NHS-psychiatric-nurse-forged-health-emergency-badge-park-Mercedez-pay-display-near-home-free.html

The nurse has worked in the NHS for 15 years but she was still referred to as "Nigerian born" in the article lol

The consequences of her actions could have been avoided as the judge remarked
" When you are entitled to something, you are entitled to it, but when you're not, you're not."

She is Nigerian born na, even with UK port she is recorded as having naturalized citizenship

chaiks:
tuition and expenses is about 35k USD per per. Tuition itself is 10, 252 USD.

That's not too bad so 10k covers your tuition. Then if you get the non resident tuition you'd have extra funds

Some schools you might be able to access more funding when arrive so you should be fine when you get odd jobs .

I saw this on another thread

stacyadams:
Am trying to to the immigration portal,,it's asking for insurance number??any body about insurance number?

Are you sure you have the right website

USAfall2024:


Now that back market rate has come down to #1500-1600, US consular should have just maintained their last rate of #1500/$. #1780/$ is too much na, them just like to rip us.

Wo none of the rates are good jare

Paying six figures for visa fees no make any sense in a country where monthly salaries get up to 333k. Income above that amount usually means your doing some sort of business of buying and selling to augment.
