Bump

A complete fucking joke. Are we supposed to be happy about his so called telephone calls?

gbegemaster:
Ride on. What interests me is na WHO SIGN THE LETTER? It's obvious that question was thrown aside with feigned annoyance.

Time will reveal all. Buhari has approximately two months to show up and even before then, tension will continue to rise.

Where does two months come from?

bump

cute me:

I have a 6 months tourist visa and the main purpose was to attend my sister's graduation but right now,I cant attend the graduation because I have an exam on that day.I intend to travel a week after the graduation. Pls I want to know if i can still use the visa even though the graduation ceremony is over?

You most certainly can.

The only thing I would caution you about is to be honest about the purpose
and reasons for your visit if asked by the immigration officer. Do not attempt
to conceal the fact you have missed the graduation and you are now on a simple
visit to your sister.

Right I have been doing a bit of research into this programme.

It was filmed in Lagos during the era of Sanni Abacha, that would have been
sometime in 1998 and screened by Channel 4 on British TV in 1999.
So not as far back as I first claimed but certainly it is not a recent documentary.

Do a google search if you don't believe me, in fact the documentary has previously
been discussed on this board in another thread.

Vicjustice,

I think you are either being mischievous or you are simply ignorant.
This video is at least 15 YEARS OLD

It was first screened in the UK then.

Having said that,without doubt the MMA is now in desperate need of
a serious upgrade. It is no longer fit for purpose and totally inadequate
for international flights.

Congratulations.

Sure hope you learn to spell the word "Married" before your big day.

Busy_body:


Code 3 is used on students on short course, prospective students as well as people ing through the Country who have not reached their final destination such as the Channel Islands, Ireland, etc, to prevent people from taking up employment in the UK and to tightly restrict one's stay to a specific duration of time no more than 6 months, so they usually would put something like e.g. code 3 valid for one month.

Generally true,but it would not ordinarily be used for a Nigerian visitor as they are visa nationals and so he would have had a visa prior to entry. That is why I said if indeed he was given a code 3 that is irregular.

Code 3 could also be used on a tourist/visitor, say like an American who raises doubts in the mind of the Immigration officer but there is not enough eveidence to refuse entry outright.

If you held a Nigerian port then normally you would not be given
a code 3. Your visa is your leave to enter and they should have just stamped
it with an ordinary date stamp if it was your fist arrival on that visa. If not then
they would stamp near it or on any other page.

If indeed you are a visa national and were given a separate code 3 stamp
then that is most irregular.

Code 3?

Firstly, what is your nationality or at least what port did you travel with?

The stadium is nothing to write home about.
We are too easily pleased as a people.

To me the stadium looks like something built
by the Chinese or Bulgarians from the 1970s.

It is concrete, go look at most modern stadia
they mainly have glass and steel facades.

Ridiculous, and it will cause a lot of hardship and problems.
A visa/residence permit doesn't become invalid just because
the port expires or otherwise is no longer valid.

Nationals of the old Yugoslavia still had valid visas in old Yugoslav
ports even when they adopted the ports of theirnew nations
such as Serbia.

Trust me it is clean.

On second thoughts I feel sorry for these girls
so I am not going to add to their pain by further
distributing the material.

Sorry folks.

Funky,

How bodi?

So you are still here dispensing your pearls of wisdom.
I dip in now and then but rarely post these days.

I see Ako and Pataki have pretty much abandoned the forum.
Where in the universe are you at the moment?

bump,any more?

Chris J

Any progress?

@labiyemmy:

I can see so many illetrates on NairaLand.

Yeah, would that include people like you who can't even spell
the word ILLITERATE?

Ng girl:

OMG!!!
Thank God for his timely intervention.
He's and On-time God.

Where was God during the recent air-crash in Russia
which killed 96 people including the Polish president?
Or for that matter, where was he during every other
air-crash that has ever happened?

As for opening times, I think they open for applicants from around 09:30 but they stop
seeing new arrivals from around 1:00pm.
When I did mine in Janauary 2010 I got there about 11:30 and didn't leave till about 4:30pm.

You are most unlikely to get your port on the same day.
It takes about 7-10 days to collect after the initial appointment.
Also be prepared to spend about 4-6 hours during the initial appointment.

No Wee,

I hope you don't expect to get your port on the same day.
You will collect it at least 7-10 days after acceptance of your application.

Quite frankly the whole saga is a national disgrace.

What Yar'adua and his people should realise is
that no one person is bigger than the country.

ittedly I haven't read every post on this thread but
it would appear the vast majority of posters are hostile to
the Hausa/Muslim community in Jos without considering
that in conflicts like this often both sides have some blame.

It is not only Muslims who are doing the killing, indeed it would appear that muslims are bearing the brunt of the violence, and innocent people on both sides are suffering. Read the article below:

Nigeria religious riot bodies found in village wells
An exact death toll is not known but aid workers say it may be 300
More victims of deadly religious clashes in central Nigeria have been found, with scores of bodies stuffed in wells and sewage pits.

Up to 150 bodies have been found in Kuru Karama village, 30km (18 miles) from the city of Jos, where the violence erupted last Sunday.

Correspondents say elders hid in holes for seven hours to escape the violence.

An exact death toll is not known but overall up to 300 are thought to have died in the Muslim-Christian clashes.

Several thousand people fled their homes.


The BBC's Caroline Duffield in Jos says many of the bodies found in Kuru Karama had massive burns, other victims were hacked to death or shot.

She says there are still more bodies scattered in the bush beyond the village but the areas are not safe for volunteer workers to enter.

Umar Baza, head of Kuru Karama village, told Agence -Presse news agency: "So far we have picked 150 bodies from the wells. But 60 more people are still missing."

The Human Rights Watch group said armed men had attacked the mostly Muslim Kuru Karama on 19 January.

"After surrounding the town, they hunted down and attacked Muslim residents, some of whom had sought refuge in homes and a local mosque, killing many as they tried to flee and burning many others alive," it said in a statement.
It quoted one villager as saying: "I came back on Wednesday evening escorted by the military. I saw dead bodies everywhere. The corpses were there, but now you can just see the blood on the ground. None of the houses are standing."

The group called on Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan to order an immediate criminal investigation into reports of the massacre.

Mr Jonathan deployed the military after four days of clashes.

He has been issuing orders while President Umaru Yar'Adua receives medical treatment in Saudi Arabia.

The security forces have now restored order and a curfew has been partially lifted.

But correspondents say the atmosphere is still tense.

Jos, the capital of Plateau state, lies at the point where Nigeria's Muslim north and predominantly Christian south meet.

Why is it that during the several different crises in Jos over the last 10 years or so,
nobody, not a single person to my knowledge has ever been charged and prosecuted
for arson or murder?

Given that thousands of people have been killed and buildings burnt, surely the police
must have some idea as to who the perpetrators of this mayhem are.

Maybe when people are punished for their crimes others will think twice before going
on the rampage.

Funky,

As ever, sound advice.

How bodi? Happy new year and may
everything you wish for yourself come true.

I am digging your latest profile pic, but why not turn around?

Yes I do why?

And, ?

Simply out of curiosity I might ask how such a person qualified for a Nigerian port.

I'm cool thx funky.
How are you?

BTW whatever happened to
you boyfriend that was in the
UK, did he sort himself out?
