 WOMAN CRIES FOR HELP AFTER HUSBAND ALLEGEDLY ABANDONED HER IN A LAGOS HOSPITAL AND 'USED MONEY FOR HER CS TO BUY A PHONE AND DOG' A new mum has cried out for help after her husband allegedly abandoned her at the Alimoshso General Hospital in Igando, Lagos State. The newlywed explained that she got pregnant shortly after their wedding and as her due date approached, she developed severe pain and breathlessness and was taken to the hospital where doctors told her she would have to give birth via cesarean section, CS. She said her husband objected and told doctors to discharge her. She alleged that when they got home, he bought herbal concoction for her and asked her to drink it to help her give birth naturally. She said her pain intensified after drinking it and she was rushed to the hospital for the surgery. She cried out for help on Facebook and a kind Nigerian sent her N500,000. According to the lady, she gave some of the money to her husband to pay for the surgery but when i

NIGERIA CHARGED ME $170 FOR BIOMETRICS THIRD TIME THIS YEAR FOR ONE-MONTH VISA- CNN CORRESPONDENT, LARRY MADOWO LAMENTS. (VIDEO/PHOTOS).


 “Nigeria just charged me $215 for a 1-month, single entry visa. Again. I was here 3 weeks ago - paid the same $215. This is actually my 3rd time in Nigeria this year, so they have made $645 from me in 2024 alone.


The visa itself costs $25 but Nigeria charges a $20 "processing fee" and $170 for biometrics every time. My fingerprints haven't changed since I was here 3 weeks ago, why am I paying $170 to have them taken and to pose for a picture each time I visit? Isn't that a standard part of admitting someone into a country?


How can we achieve about a borderless Africa, or the promise of the AfCFTA, if we charge Africans $215 for a single-entry visa? 


In the 3 weeks since I was last in Lagos, I went to Uganda, South Africa and Ghana where I don't need a visa with a Kenyan passport. In fact, I've also been to South Africa 3 times this year. It cost me $0, like the ancestors intended. 


Nigeria's visa-on-arrival system is similar to the "visa-free" delusion of Kenya's Electronic Travel Authorization - you apply in advance, submit some documents and wait for it to be approved. It can take up to 5 business days. If you know "someone," you can pay them $50 or more to "facilitate" a faster approval.


I love Nigeria, but the visa situation is showing me shege. It's too much oo! Why this Shege Pro Max?”
