myaisha00: Hello Aisha, That’s great hopefully you get a positive response on your applications. Same here I also have a different background, I studied Political Science but I have a wide range of self thought knowledge from data science and analytics. I just need to go more in depth on it and of course get a certified degree on Data Science as a whole. It’s so nice to get to meet someone I can talk to about data science and interact with on an intellectual level, I’m definitely looking forward to your direct messages. Please HIT ME UP ASAP!! Cheers |

Good day Gurus, I’m Tokunbo and I’m currently 29 years of age, I completed my first year in Babcock university in 2013 while studying Bsc in Political Science. I could not go back the next year to complete my program because I lost my dad and there was no means for my mum to come up with the fees. I resorted to been a man quickly and striving to adapt to the new changes by working series of semi skilled jobs and unskilled labor jobs. I acquired some IT skills, web developments, programming etc along the line . I received some online certifications from Karox technologies in India. Since 2013 and now 2022, 9years away from the university whilst striving in the university of life doing several jobs. I have savings of roughly 4.5million naira and I plan on having a change of study and career part as I wish to enroll for September in take in any UK university pursing a Bsc in Data Science as I believe Data is the new oil. I have 2 aunties and an uncle in the UK (they are UK citizens) who are ready to help with extra funds to what I have in order for me to purse my dream of a Bsc in Data Science. These are my questions for the gurus in the house >>> 1.) Been a 29 year old unmarried man with no kids going back to the Uni transitioning from an academic background of political science in My first year in Babcock what chances do I have in gaining an admission from any UK university with my year 1 transcript from Babcock? 2.) What are the chances of getting a job on a student visa working the 20hours per week as the law states. 3.) is it late starting to apply to the universities for a September in take admission currently at the moment? 4.) Would I be able to get my official year 1 transcript from Babcock since I didn’t complete my program although I do have the print out of my personal year 1 result from my student profile. I had that printed since year 1. 5.) After completion of my Bsc in data science I plan on staying back in the UK and possibly get a job with my degree and along the line get married to a UK citizen. Do I stand a chance of getting a job after 3 years of my program bearing in mind I will be 32 by then God willing. Lastly I’m open to advices and suggestions from anyone in a similar position as myself. Thank you all for reading and I await your responses. Cc: Justwise 1 Like |

Nikky so long this person is sure about 150%. Chances of visa I don’t mind, I will first of all observe and see if your visa and that of your son comes out. If it does then I am definitely using this ur agent contact. My problem now is money, because I have already made my mind up I was staying in Naija the next 3months before I re apply due to the previous refusals and I have spent half of my savings for this visit trip. As soon as I see your visas out I’m sure patronizing ur contact. I’m still waiting for you to contact me. I already sent you my number check ur inbox Nikky1759: |

Dear Nikky, How true is this? It clearly seems like the consular is now running a scheme with some people but I find it hard to believe there’s an agent out there charging 300k for a 150% chances of visa. Send me a private Dm Nikky Nikky1759: |

Blurpy:I just found out with my refusals, indeed there’s a Cold War between South Africans and Nigerians. More of a diplomatic war and I’m sure the Nigerian government is not aware of this or they choose not to speak about it. The South African government is really out to shut out Nigerians from its country. After 2 flimsy refusals I have nothing to do with them no more. |

Nikky1759:Those people know what they are doing, they are purposely refusing people just to discourage us, I don’t blame them our people have really painted us black in SA. Most people over stay their visa all in the name of greener pasture and they end up stranded in another man’s country while dealing in drugs and illicit cyber crimes and what not!! The SA govt knows what it’s doing with this unprecedented refusals. They don’t want anymore Nigerians. The once overstaying years there are giving them enough problems. What hurts most is my statement from the first application from April 28th to July 28th that’s 3months and yet they said it was not up to 3months and refused. A blatant lie by the consular, Second application again another lie Host ID unclear the same Host ID that was printed and submitted the first time the exact way my doctor friend gave me, they didn’t say anything about host ID unclear the first time rather they lied about statement not up to 3months and yet another lie the second time host ID unclear. There’s no way in hell I’m applying the 3rd time they should hold their country. 3 Likes |

Additivesupplie:. I submitted all documents required for visit, my host invitation letter, utility Bill, ID, house address, also every other details needed from me every single thing and even beyond. I went the extra mile in submitting supporting documents from the hospital bills from my previous stay in 2017 on the medical visa payments receipts, my current house address and documents backing the ownership to me, I submitted past travel history. I don’t even want to start thinking about it this morning because I will just start getting angry again. |

As educated and well to do Nigerians with legal businesses, a legal means of income and livelihood. We are yet to realize to what extent these other fellow Nigerians giving the country a bad image outside of the country as tarnished the general image and the stigma that comes with been a NIGERIAN. In this context I’m referring to the drug dealers and yahoo boys in SA. Coupled with that this present administration as even made matters worst. Every embassy sees every Nigerian as been desperate. Now I was in SA in late 2017 on a medical visa I was there for a duration of 2weeks. When I was discharged from the hospital I went on a sight see and I was astonished as to how developed they are over there and how far behind Nigeria is. I returned to Nigeria went by my business and my company, I own a Real Estates and Fintech company. I have a travel history of Germany, Ireland, UK, Switzerland and France. So last month I decided to visit a Nigerian doctor and close friend he’s a citizen in SA because he as been in SA for a very very long time, right from the late 90’s and early 2000’s. He wrote me an invitation coupled with every other details. I printed my bank statement from April 28th to July 28th I had an opening balance of 13.5m and a closing balance of 5.5m in my personal account, I submitted at Lekki on August 13th with all other necessary documents, my house and my business legal documents and ownership and every other thing else. I also printed my previous medical visa from 2017 my entry and departure at OR Tambo at the exact time. I even left their country earlier than the time they gave me to stay. My fellow Nigerians from august 13th that I submitted two weeks later my passport came back to me august 31st and I was refused and ticked under “Bank statement not valid for three months” and I was like that as to be a joke right??!! April 28th to July 28th that’s a 3months statement. So my thoughts were maybe because the consular officer meant a 3months calendar bank statement. So I reprinted the same documents I used in applying the first time and I included a copy of the refusal paper showing bank statement not up to 3months, went to my bank printed another bank statement from June 1st to September 1st and I had a closing balance of 4.3M. Tuesday September 7th went to the same Lekki center and I submitted the same documents and every other thing I used I applying the first time along with my previous medical visa in 2017, my newly printed bank statement and the copy of the paper refusing me saying my statement was not valid for 3months. The same documents, the invitation from my doctor friend, his ID copy my home and business documents . Printed everything out as I did the first time and I could recall at the VIP section one of the guys said to me “oga you were here some weeks ago dey didn’t give you ni” I said my brother Naso I see am oo!! They said my statement was not up to 3months and he said argh!! They just wanted to refuse u ni and he told me categorically it’s now a who you know thing with the SA consular as they refuse legal and legitimate people and grant visa to omoh Igbos with drug carter tentacles in SA. For Christ sakes my business as a legal and active building I run a business here as much as naija is terrible I don’t plan on foregoing my business and starting from the scratch in another mans country let alone an African county although I don’t see SA as every other regular country. Those guys are way ahead for Nigeria. My point is I was very angry when the guy told me this.I was Damn sure they wouldn’t have no excuse to refuse me this time. So I submitted September 7th and my passport came to me this morning and underneath the white paper other “ Host’s ID copy certification unclear” Omoh I was so pissed when I saw it like what the hell mahn!! This people are really taking a piss. How is the same ID copy of my doctor friend which I used in applying some weeks ago all of a sudden it’s unclear to them. How ![]() ![]() 2 Likes

chima1978:that was the mistake I did allowing and placing that in his hands but now I plan on getting the invitation from an uncle that as permanent stay in SA...if I don't re apply it will be a total loss for me...it's better I take the risk of re applying since I wasn't stamped refusal on my passport and more so I only got refused over invitation not stamped which was genuine and valid but lacked only the official stamp |

Ibiangz:the agent says he I will have to re apply since they only refused me based on my invitation not stamped and more so I was not stamped refusal on my passport I only got a white paper between my passport stating the unconvincing letter nd not stamped as reasons for the refusal...both I plan on re applying at Lagos embassy this time around and with a better invitation letter and officially stamped...I hope I get it this time around *fingers crossed* |

Hello everyone can anyone help me out here by giving the best advice and way forward... I applied for a tourist/visitors visa in Abuja on the Wednesday 31st May and got a text message the following day Thursday June 1st that my application was processing already...the agent that helped me with the processing and arranging of my documents which were all Original including my bank statement told me I will receive another text message when the application was done processing in roughly 2weeks so I waited on the text. On not getting any text after close to two weeks I decided to go online nd track my application on VFS and it says application was ready for pick up as on the 5th June...to my amazement I called the agent and told him it was available for pick and maybe network problem that was why I didn't get any message...so I gave him my receipt and he went to pick the application today and to my surprise and outmost disbelief and sadness my application on as at getting it today was refused because they ticked it on the paper Documents lack credibility/unconvincing and below comments on the grounds above it reads: RSA LETTER NOT CONVINCING. NO OFFICIAL STAMP ON THE LETTER. I asked the agent why so and he replied that he didn't know the invitation letter he processed for me wasn't stamped and we would have to re apply ASAP...just one question house How true is the reapplication and what are my chances of been granted a visa if I re apply nd this time with a well convincing letter and stamped as well ![]() ![]() |
