Travel / Re: How Long Is An Air Flight From Nigeria To Singapore? by babyspice: 1:36pm On Feb 20, 2013
it depends on your airline. if you are going through the middle east i.e using emirates airlines for example, it takes about 7hours to dubai and 7hrs plus to singapore direct minus transit time in dubai. so total traveling time is 14 hours without transit time included. if you need more info check the airline website you are traveling and study their flight schedules.

Ricky_Ross:

Na today, almost every black man you see in Indonesia is a Nigerian. Many Nigerians there are into yahoo yahoo/drug. Indonesia visa is not expensive and it is not difficult to get. Even though they have some beautiful cities and sky scrappers, Indonesia is a very poor / corrupt country like Nigeria. There are not enough jobs for their citizens, I have not yet seen any Nigerian working there. Every Nigerian there is a hustler. Like the Philippines, a great % of Indonesian girls pay huge sums of money to travel agents who take them to Middle East/Europe/America to do boy boy (Maid).

Asia is touch and die for drug business. Any guy who is thinking about going to Indonesia or any part of Asia to do drug business is stupid and deserves to die. Our guys don't learn and I don't pity them.

I just need to correct you before you make a hasty generalization about this lovely country. I've lived here for a couple of years, legitimately and it's a fantastic place to live. Yes, corruption exists, yes most folks do live poor but that's not unusual
in most countries. Not all Nigerians are yahoo/ yahoo and the like.not every Nigerian here is a hustler . If you come here to hustle or do drugs , you pay the price and make the headlines. If you are here legitimately, you will definitely have a good life. I was just like you before I came here, all I heard about this part of the world was, drugs and death...but that couldn't be further from the truth. Yes they are Hard on drug traffickers, not just Nigerians either, on Australians, British, Americans too. Indonesians are quite friendly and very curious...most haven't heard of nigeria but know of our footballers though!!!

Hi, igwekadillac can I just speak to you for a second..whatever it is you are looking for outside Nigeria is probably based on images you've seen on TV or information received from other sources, all no doubt pointing to the greener pastures and easy living. There is some truth to that but the fact is your desire to get there legallly then live there illegally under the presumption that hustling will get you your dream can only lead to heartache, stress, worry etc. in short. Nothing good will come of this.
Consider using the skills at your disposal to earn a living. Hustling in a foreign country is no experience anyone should desire. You will not like what you become. Stay home. If you wish to travel on vacation , when you can afford to, do so. Hustle at home, God will bless your hustle ( as long as it is legal o).

Travel / Nigerians! How Far Will We Go! Man Marries Daughter So She Can Get A Visa! by babyspice: 10:38am On Nov 18, 2009
Check out this link to this sad tale! Vomit inducing!


A Nigerian Home Office worker 'married' his own daughter to get her a British visa, the Daily Mail can reveal.

The extraordinary scam was apparently executed by Jelili Adesanya while ministers turned a blind eye.

Mr Adesanya, 54, has lived here for more than 30 years and holds a British passport, but wanted his daughter, her husband and their four sons to join him from Nigeria.
happy couple

Big day: The happy 'couple' in their bogus wedding photo


He faked a wedding ceremony complete with a photograph of the happy 'couple' which helped fool immigration officials that his daughter, Karimotu Adenike, was really his wife.

Miss Adenike, who is in her mid-30s, was duly granted permission to live in the UK.
The pair are waiting for her to be granted a permanent right to remain before they undergo a quiet divorce and attempt to bring the rest of her family here.
It is expected she would try to remarry her real husband to get them all visas.
But despite being tipped off two years ago, the Home Office seems to have done nothing to stop the scam by one of their own workers.
Until recently, Mr Adesanya was employed as an occupational health nurse for the Home Office, working with immigration officials at Gatwick airport.
A whistleblower sent letters to the High Commission in Lagos and the UK Border Agency including specific details such as names, addresses, passport numbers and even a copy of the wedding photograph.
When there was no response, he sent emails to then Home Secretary Jacqui Smith and ministers Vernon Coaker and Phil Woolas on February 1 this year. He heard nothing.

Sham: Jelili Adesanya and his 'wife' Karimotu Adenike pictured in Britain


Mr Adesanya, who came to Britain in 1976, flew back to Nigeria on May 29, 2007, and held the bogus wedding ceremony a few days later at a register office in Ikorodu, Lagos.

A source said: 'They paid people to attend the wedding so that the British High Commission in Lagos would believe it was genuine. The commission then gave Karimotu Adenike a two-year settlement visa in October 2007.

'On her settlement visa application form, of course, she did not mention that she already had a husband and four children.

'The date of birth on her Nigerian passport is not her real date of birth.'

Miss Adenike is believed to have aged herself by ten years on her wedding certificate to disguise the age gap with her father.

Although her settlement visa expired last month, she is hoping to be given the right to remain.

David Burrowes, the Conservative MP for Enfield Southgate and Shadow Justice Minister, was also tipped off by the whistleblower and wrote to the Home Office.

This time there was a reply, but it said that although the matter was 'under investigation', no further information would be provided because it could 'breach of our obligations under the Data Protection Act'.

Mr Burrowes told the Mail: 'I am very surprised and concerned that no action appears to have been taken, because the allegations are extremely serious.'

Mr Adesanya, who lives with his daughter in Dagenham, Essex, vehemently denied the plot and said he had never been questioned about the allegations.

He said: 'Married my own daughter? I have never heard anything like this in my life. I deny it. She is my wife, not my daughter.'

However, asked to confirm his 'wife's' date of birth, he said he did not know without checking her passport, and refused to allow her to speak for herself.

Unbeknown to him, his daughter had confirmed the arrangement when she told a friend she would shortly apply for her own British passport and 'divorce daddy'.

Last night Jonathan Sedgwick, from the UK Border Agency, said: 'These individuals are already under investigation, and I want to make it clear that abuse of our immigration laws will not be tolerated.

'If we identify marriages which we believe are not genuine, we will challenge them and prosecute where appropriate.

'We are determined to send home any foreign nationals convicted of these types of crimes once they have served their sentences.'

I couldn't agree more with you, Coke. I think Chidi Mokeme's presenting skills make me wanna gag tongue. He acts like he's in charge and calling all the shots (which unfortunately he is!) He seems to have taken a shine to Vaughan, just like he did to Julian in the first show. Maybe his badluck will rub of on Vaughan aka 'the General', and he'll lose out too. It's suddenly looking a lot better now!!
