Science/Technology / Re: Nigerian Man Finds An Owl In His Home (Pix, Video) by pseudonomer: 12:17pm On Oct 18, 2023

Superstition and illiteracy will kill some Nigerians before Bandits and accident.


An Owl is now a strange bird?


I will like to taste the O.P brand of alcohol.

It’s not about Nigeria, and it’s not a sign of illiteracy to be wary of owls.

In ancient America and even in Greek mythology, the owl is a symbol of death, often accompanying the god of death. It’s considered a bad omen if they come visiting you.

To be honest, Germany immigration seems harder for Nigerians due to our bad reputation in that country, I remember their government warning that Nigerians would face tougher immigration hurdles before all these their shakara started.

Nigerians don’t have a bad reputation in Germany, especially among those who migrated legally. In fact, Nigerians have a good reputation. I can’t speak for the “Aduros” (those who came through asylum).

What’s happening here is the fact that many Nigerians are applying for student visas, and Germany usually has a quota for visas to be issued within a specific period. For instance, Germany has a quota of no more than 1000 marriage reunion visas to be issued worldwide in a month, and this information is publicly stated. I’m sure there is a similar quota system for student visas as well. What this means is that the visas would be rationed.

Germany has a weird legal immigration control system that makes legal migration quite challenging and frustrating, but it appears to reward illegal immigration, making it relatively easy. This is a sad reality.

Many people are here supporting China’s bid to become the world power against the West. The West is critical of their religion, while China imprisons people for practicing their religion.

Not true, 15 pro max is way more expensive than s23 ultra
It’s not significantly more expensive; it’s about a €50 difference. The S23 Ultra is priced at €1399, while the 15 Pro Max is at €1449. Prices can vary depending on where you are buying from.

validplanet:


So what's special about iOS for someone to pay 1 million naira for?

All flagship Android phones are as expensive as iPhones. The reason why many focus on iPhones is that Apple doesn’t produce mid-range or low-range iPhones, unlike Samsung, Xiaomi, and others. For example, the Samsung S23 Ultra is slightly more expensive than the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Samsung, Google Pixel, LG, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Sony, and others have flagship phones that are often as expensive as iPhones, and sometimes even more so.

Janosky:

Your TRINITARIAN mentors knew this truth about Jesus Christ too.

One of the reasons Martin Luther left the Catholic church.
Oga,Read the screenshot.

Jude 1:9 never claimed Archangel Michael is Jesus Christ in anyway.

“Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!””
‭‭Jude‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/114/jud.1.9.NKJV


However, John 1:1-2 Claimed this:

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.
‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/114/jhn.1.1-2.NKJV

Reading further, John 1:14:

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/114/jhn.1.14.NKJV

You should quote the Bible, not Wikipedia, not even Martin Luther King.

Mind you, I’m not Catholic, infact, I have attended a lot JW meetings, and even National convention once.

Genesis 16:7 & Malachi 3:1, Amplified Bible & Geneva Bible, your Trinity mentors know the truth.

You people believe Jesus Christ is Angel Michael…

John 1:1-5, then 14. It might help you understand the relationship Jesus Christ and God the Father has.

But he will earn much closer.
The economy class difference is not much.thats the fact. That's why there is no bigmanism there.You no dey call anybody Oga or Sir.

I assume a cleaner will earn the minimum wage range. The minimum wage per hour in the UK is £10.42/hr. Assuming a 40-hour workweek, that's 160 hours per month. 160 * 10.42 = £1667.20.

So, the minimum wage is £1667.20 per month; however, this is the gross pay, and the net pay (after tax) will be lower.

Please, y'all should stop demonizing taxes.

Even after taxes, a financially prudent person can still save enough to make him or her wealthy by Naira and Nigerian standards.


The reasons why you Africans despise and fear taxes (including African Americans) says a lot about why this continent is behind.

I don’t have issues with paying tax. I’m just saying there’s usually a big difference from gross pay to net pay.

I totally understand your frustration and sentiments bro. I was once in your shoes. but there's nothing you or Nigerian government can do about it.
protesting would even worsen the whole issue.

My advice is if you can't wait... you follow the route other people follow (going to neighboring countries to do your interview)..

or you consider going to other countries.... there are some European countries whose schools have affordable tuition fees... example is Finnland.
Some Finland schools their tuition ranges from 5000euro and above or even less..... Finland is one of the best countries in Europe to study... I have friends who left germany for Finnland.. and their doing fine.


another good thing about Finnland is after graduation... you can get permanent residency with any type of job be it cleaning job or professional...

unlike germany....

Interesting, are you sure about the bold part?

Travel / Re: Applying For Visa While In Another Country As A Nigerian by pseudonomer: 6:22pm On Aug 05, 2023
You can if you have a residence permit/visa in the said country, and to be honest, it’s really easy that way.

However, you can’t apply for a visa in a country where you only have a tourist visa. In that case, you need to go back to your home country to apply.

Please, I have a question. Is it possible to unlock/flash and set up an iPhone marked as lost on iCloud? A friend's iPhone 12 Pro was stolen, and I'm wondering if it will be possible for the thief to reset it.

The thief already tried sending a fake Apple link to get the Apple iCloud and password, but we did not click on the link and deleted the message. I'm just wondering if there could be a way for the thief to unlock this iPhone.

I already researched that this is impossible, but in Nigeria, anything is possible.

For the young man above who assumes me to be a learner or novice on traveling, i thought it is important to let you know, my first international trip was in 2018. I will leave it there.

This is the response from the Polish Embassy in Nairobi, Everyone is advised to always verify whatsoever is posted here so you are not misled

If you need further clarifications, please copy the email and re confirm.

Goodevening everyone.



I don’t think the consular understood your message.

Anywhere in the world, as far you have a legal resident permit of the country you live in(some for at least 6 months), you should be able to apply for a visa from there.

You people don’t understand the concept of minimum wage.

It means that’s the minimum, not the average. If minimum wage is 200k per month, then I guess, this is only a guess, the average wage per month will be 500k.

Romance / Re: Women, How Old Were You When Older Men Started Approaching You With Sexual by pseudonomer: 8:30am On Jun 05, 2023
Rosaline5000:
It's started when I was 13, I matured early and I am kinda pretty so older men start coming even my Math teacher then in school, thank God my maturity came with sense and the fact I was a very curious child and i know right from little if i have sex with any guy I will get pregnant and my thought process then was my life could basically be finished.

It really helped that I read a book then called "Deep Regret" written by a 16 years old girl at the time, the book talked about teenage pregnancy, so I basically ignore all those old shameless men and tried to beat the writer's record of the youngest Nigeria Author
Well I didn't but I learned a lot.

Can you share the author’s name of the book “Deep Regret”?
