Please can someone remind me of that app or website where people post things they want to give out for free? House hold things?

Stop defending nonsense.
The issue here is that Nigerians are taking advantage of the student visa route and bringing everybody in their family. The Student visa was not designed for that.

There is a housing crisis because student accomodation is supposed to house single people and not whole families. Most Nigerians coming in can not afford to pay for housing which is suitable for whole families that is the main issue.

Women are coming in heavily pregnant and giving birth for free on the NHS...can they try that one in America?

3-4 New immigrant children are being placed in schools and British born children who have parents who have paid taxes for years have to stay home.

As I said, The student visa was not designed for families but now the government is aware that Nigerians are taking the piss they will put a stop to it.

justwise:


Apart from visa fees each member of the family and the main applicant pay £624 a year for IHS and those under the age of 18 pays £470.

So for 2 and half year student visa each family members pays £1248 even before they use NHS and when they get to the UK and start working they still pay for NI and during their visa extension they will still pay £1248 each.

So tell me how many British citizen pay that much yearly for NHS even if they don't use it?

You're actually the one with a rubbish stance. You're saying Nigerian students are flooding student accommodations with their whole families, so why is there such a huge demand for 2-3 bed properties around the country, with the available properties turning into bidding wars, and properties going at 30-70k over asking? I really don't understand why you're crying more than the bereaved. If the UK government so feels that the net economic benefits of immigrant students is far less than the strain they're causing to the system, let them put a stop to it. Nigerians will simply go elsewhere; it has happened before.
If all your pain is because an immigrant child took your kid's spot in school, well, my advice is work harder, so you can send the child to Eton. Pele dear, don't be the village people, they pray against.

Honourable Gateman of the British Empire.

If people coming into the UK by whatever means they deem fit dey pain you too much, a placard hanging above your head at Piccadilly Circus will help cure some of this madness you are bent on displaying.

Gemma11:


You didn't make any sense...most importantly you didn;t even understand what I wrote because where did I say that they were flooding student accomodation?

Student accomodation is readily available..the issue is, such accomodation is not meant to house families..what part of that don't you understand?


In the meantime Nigerians are complaining that they can't find accommodation but that is because they either can't afford it or do not have UK credit records or a guarantor.

Again the sense of entitlement is astounding.

Crying more than the bereaved? I have been paying taxes here for how many years and I have every right to have an opinion on how they are used.

The UK will soon stop this nonsense sha. Nigerians should stay where they are and fix their country instead of running over here to complain and over use resources.

hustla:


I think almost all banks give sponsorship

TheGuyFromHR:


You seem so sure of this.

iboboyswag:


You just want to troll...

Josh121:


Oh can you tell us your story on how you got here and start paying tax, let me guess you also came as a student . Bad belle

Gemma11:


So Nigerian citizens should take priority over British citizens because they paid?

In any case there are many British citiizens who have paying into the NHS for years and they have never used it so your logic is off.

Gemma11:


Yeah her focus should be on Nigerians because they are abusing the system.

Students are normally single people

Students consisting of a grown man/wife & partner with 3- 5 kids is not normal and taxing on the system. Yes they are paying for healthcare but are they also paying for school places, books, pens, free food and all the other amenities that these children use? It is something when British Born children can't find a place in school because a new Nigerian immigrant child has taken their place.

There are more Indians and Chinese coming in as students than Nigerians but these are genuine students coming alone to study. It is the Nigerians who are packing whole families here.

Suella will be back. She probably only resigned so that she could do so before the PM.

Gemma11:


Not every black Nigerian person 'came' to the UK. Some of us are born and raised in this land. My parents were paying Uk taxes long before I was born here in London. I am now also paying my own share....na you get bad belle..lol

Anyway the reason why I contributed to this thread was just to help genuine students and Nigerian immigrants answer questions about life in the UK not those who want to play ojoro to fleece the system.

hustla:


"Think"

Mellady:

Olio app

justwise:


Were your parents also born in the UK or they are part of those Nigerians who came in to abuse the system at a different time?

Josh121:


Nextdoor

LagosismyHome:


Go to Facebook., in comment section.. you see many indians dropping out like flies . Many are hustlers that just came to UK with no intention of paying that school fees.

Even their sister Suella is complaining they have the highest number of overstayers ....

Gemma11:


Nigerians stay in your country.

TheGuyFromHR:


It's still quite a lot of thinking you've done there.

iboboyswag:


Try and stop us!

Gemma11:


You are quite delusional. You are calling the British lazy but it is their systems, banking systems, technology, infrastruture, roads, buildings and and the country they developed over centuries that you think Nigerians should be more entitled to just because they are coming in to do menial jobs while parading as students?

If Nigerians are not lazy then how comes Nigeria is not as developed as the UK? Why are Nigerians running away from a country they have not developed and coming to the UK to call the citizens lazy as though they are the ones who built it?

Again this is about those on student visas abusing the system and it is not about the NHS but about schools and housing dealing with the unexpected influx of families.

My cousin bro just recently moved there … in as much I was against it because his first degree in Nigeria is not health or IT related.

What are his chances of survival in a competitive place like the UK with a Management degree certificate.

Even the post study work (PSW) isn’t looking sure like before , chances of you coming back to Nigeria immediately after your studies is high .

The UK is tightening it immigration laws daily , they’ve started crackdown on dependants visas

Told this young man , he will be better off trying to hustle for a German visa or even Australia visa or any EU country with flexible PR option.

But baba insisted he must enter UK with student visa , smh … because anytime he comes on nairaland and see you people talking about making 2500 pounds per month

My Mumu cousin self will rush and bring out his CASIO calculator and convert £2500 to naira , then start telling me , he will be making 1.9 million naira per month and he will be sending me like 300k monthly …lol

justwise:


The same way the British ran away from Britain to Nigeria and other part of the world to colonise them the difference here is that they did not apply for visa. Only armed themselves with bible pretending to be missionaries only to steal and loot.

Many cities in the UK were developed from materials stolen from Africa, look around royal family and you will see one or two stolen item from Africa.

Yes majority of British are damm lazy and would prefer claiming benefit than working hard.

Gemma11:


You are living in the past and making excuses as to why Nigerians have failed to develop Nigeria and are now specialising in exporting their bad behaviour and imposing themselves on other countries...

Even if they no steal Nigerian resources una for feat develope Nigeria reach UK level? Nonsense

Stay in your land. They give una student visa and na to only abuse and cry victim when it is pointed our now una sabi.
