TheGuyFromHR: My brother, This story get as he be. There are usually three sides to a story, - the wife’s version - the husbands version and - the truth What do you think would make a man abscond with 3 kids? 5 Likes |

mattfeuter:You are right. There are three sides to a story. However, that last line isn't necessary. Nothing, absolutely justifies a man kidnapping his children without his wife's consent. No matter what the woman did, it's wrong for the man to just carry children and fly to the UK. 3 Likes |

mattfeuter: Lol. I agree that there are different sides to every marital story. More than the 3 you mentioned even, there are also the following: - mother in law on the wife's side's version, - the mother-in-law on the man's side's version, - the live-in sibling[s]-in-law's version[s] and even the househelp is entitled to a version as well. But in this case, we're dealing with the hypothetical situation of what to do if one parent took co-parented children out of the country (to the UK in this case) without the other parent's consent. Why they did so is beyond the remit of this exercise. 2 Likes |

Olalekank: That’s why I said we don’t know the exact situation. We are only replying based on the one sided story that was posted. You can’t say nothing justifies it, sometimes in life, you need to make tough decisions. 3 Likes |

mattfeuter:This sounds like people who become Internet Fraudster can be justified because of poverty. No, crime isn't justifiable no matter how you try to twist the matter. Even if the woman has been physically assaulting the man or she has been a bad wife, it's not enough reason for the man to wake up one morning and carry all the children to the UK. Heck, he didn't even send a text to let her know that her children are in the UK. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by mattfeuter(m): 10:15am On Dec 27, 2020 |
Olalekank: Not sure about your fraudster analogy in relation to this lol but it’s safe to say we have diverging opinions on this matter. Anyways that’s their problem. They will be alright. |

Mamatukwas: Since I know both personally I can say the man was truly horrible .... however our naija culture of be quiet, just manage and bear it makes women not report some things openly . Instead we keep quiet and our mental health pays a serious price for it and makes you take drastic action once you been pushed to your limit ..... I guess both ways as well because some men do suffer shege in their wife's hands |

Merry Christmas my people. Has anybody switched from a dependent visa to a student visa? I’d like to confirm the requirements. On the .gov site, it says if you’ve been here for up to 12 months, the proof of maintenance won’t be required. Has anybody gone through this route and can you confirm the process and requirements? Thank you. |

It’s not really peculiar to Nigerians though. But all the same it’s fine. Thanks for replying LagosismyHome: |

RalphJean: You’re absolutely right however i have a different opinion. You look at those jobs and believe that they assess their candidates as UK, then EU then Nigerian (if none of the other two are interested); I look at those jobs and see only two options: EU first then Nigerian (nonEU) candidates. If the African Union was working well, would you like to know that almost all the jobs that Africans can do are being given to China, without first checking other African countries (thereby NOT empowering the African continent)? So I get their sentiment for checking the other EU countries before us. There’s also a second thing to note: being part of the EU made UK economically viable for English speaking migrants (I know a lot of business people that picked UK over Canada for ease of doing business + travel within Europe). Now that they are out, I don’t know how “fertile” the UK may be. So yes as a non-EU migrant of course brexit is in my favour but I try not to let my selfish emotions tower logic. Again, I’m guessing- the UK may thrive excellently from 2021. |

mattfeuter: I understand your sentiment but you’re justifying a crime regardless. |

rigvod: Do you research from this websites - : BT Talk Talk Sky Plusnet Virgin And finally moneysupermarket......... Àbi you no get data for your mobile phone too...... In that case, even Jesus cannot help you......... Or better still, get a mobile phone contract with huge data allowance, then hotspot....... NB : For home broadband packages, you don't need to add a landline (you can only opt for home broadband only package)........ Don't thank me........ 2 Likes 1 Share |

LagosismyHome: If you didn’t say this I wouldn’t have believed that the woman was abused. She worked with victims and could see the trauma, yet she did nothing with hers? That’s why I assumed the judge was right to have dismissed her claims. It’s like being a doctor, seeing people die of covid and still refusing to wear a mask. |

rigvod: When you select a provider as the previous poster advised it might take up to 2 weeks for them to set you up. Till then get a free 3 no-contract data sim and buy an unlimited data package for 35 quid for just one month (I think their unlimited data has about the best price when I checked for my recently arrived friend earlier this month), if 3 has a good network in your area. When your broadband's set up, you retire the sim. Simple. 2 Likes 2 Shares |
