If you want cheap flight, the best way is to fly from Lagos to New York and from New York to your destination either by flight or train or bus.. Highest you will spend will be less than 1000 usd if i am not wrong. Emirates, air maroc and Qatar are always cheap, you can try and make use of anyone you get a cheap price from. |

Actually, I had an interview today, I knew I flunked the second Q which the V.O was magnanimous to take me back to after few other question but I was obviously jittery that I began to laugh at myself on the spot.

Anyway it is just a temporary delay, all you got to do now is re fire and prepare adequately. Get rid of your fear and improve your use of English and arrangement of words. Simplify yourself so that even a lame man will understand your point. VOs are not God, so they are not to be scared of. I believe you can do you. Just take the courage. #MYVIEW 1 Like |
