Phayie: I don't work earn 18k and I don't work extra hours. I'm just telling the OP that it's possible to earn over 12k without working extra hours. A friend got a offer of £37k but since he is still a student they offered him part-time equivalent. |

Strata1716: Most people I know flouted that rule, he should not be afraid. People who worked over 2ohours and those who worked 34hours both committed same sin. I never heard any rejection except the ones that went viral on line and one or two from here. But he should tell his family to also pray for him. He knew what 2 Likes |

Strata1716: Your friend may get his PSW. I know of several people in a school whatsapp group that worked even up to 48 hours on several occasion and still got PSW. I use the word "May" because nothing is certain and everyone's case differs. However, following the law is the best as the PSW wouldn't be a probability but a certainty "All things being equal" 3 Likes |

Yinnchi2: Get ready to spend money on artificial insemination. U can browse but the last time I asked was like 2yrs ago or 3yrs ago the particular centre I called said it is 8m. If u were in Nigeria i would have said u should try UBTH. |

koonbey: Please not everyone comes from rich families and don’t underestimate how hard it is for some families to survive without support. |

koonbey: Well, those that are well exposed might convince the ones at home that greater life awaits the family in other side of the divide and a land might be sold to make sure it happened, later you dey come up with story 😉? May he find mercy shaa. |

justwise: I understand where you’re coming from but what would be the end goal of challenging him? To prove what to whom? I wouldn’t mislead anyone but I wouldn’t go out of my way to convince random people on the internet about anything either. I believe it’s better to let him spread all those stories and let those who will believe, believe, and stay home. We need people to build Naija and make the country work anyway so win win. 5 Likes |

iyatrustee:Ah well, there's no point flogging a dead horse. The OP and their friend know what rules were flouted. Do many others flout those same rules and scaled through? Yes. Is the OP and their friend worried about consequences? Yes. Can we stop people who think their situations back home is enough justification to go above the allowed hours? No. Are there Nigerians abiding by that 20-hour rule strictly. Countless. Anyhow people go be anyhow prople. So, what to do? Wish them the best when they mess up. Cos we can't help them and e no too concern us. 4 Likes |

Lexusgs430: Any way sha better people lie low. Cos some schools didnt dosturb people at all. My friend paid the bal using 20hrs but worked more than 20hrs during hols. Which is not a problem. |

Poanan: It doesn't really bother me, if people exceed their WTD (I am not paying their fees/tax)........ But considering the amount invested + a little bit of patience........ Would go a long way, in avoiding (had I known situation)....... 8 Likes |

Strata1716: I think he should call the family and tell them his predicament now. So that they know what their actions have caused and they should pray so it doesn't go the other way. It is very important he tells them. Taking a second look. It may be harsh but your friend somehow knew what he was getting involved in. He probably did cos he saw others and wanted to play the hero. 6 Likes |

Lexusgs430: Exactly, that money is too much o. People should stop "capping" for others, like they say in common parlance. |

Poanan: I remember many moons ago, home students went to university completely free (the government even paid you, to attend university)....... Foreign students, only paid about £3000...... Back then, we home students, still picked up shifts at kwiksave, Safeway & 24/7(unlimited hours) ......... 🤣😂 2 Likes |

Poanan: You know he wouldn't inform them ........ He/she, would rather face this stressful period alone (praying a miracle happens)........😜😂 We should be brave enough to say NO, regardless of backlash.......... I recently had a dialogue with a japa candidate, that opposed my house buying mantra (how difficult it was for them to save funds) ...... When we conducted a forensic analysis of wages earned vs funds sent to Nigeria......... If Nigeria was cutoff for almost 3 years (this particular couple, would have enough saved to buy a property)....... What we fail to realise is, let's assume this person that cannot say NO, dies ........ Those in Nigeria, would still survive......... A little patience, for a long term gain...... In my opinion, is a much better position....... No dey rush, lick hot soup ........😜😭 14 Likes |

Unrelated but does anyone know why UK bank branches keep closing down? More digitization to reduce costs and go the way of banks like Monzo or recession? |

Poanan: They'll say 'eeeyahhhh' cos they won't really understand the consequences of what he got into the long term gains he could have had from sticking to rules When baba comes back to 'ese aaro', they'll say "Aye lo se" As Oga Lexus dey talk, Them no dey rush lick hot soup. As them dey talk for Twitter street, "if you no avoid whatsapp billing, you fit no make am for life" He'll probably still get the psw though but will learn a vital lesson that when push comes to shove, na OYO e dey 2 Likes |
