d.i know someone that was paid almost 120 million as retirement grants and every thing became zero naira after 6 months.beware
your statement reminds me of a man who is working at COCOABOD COTE D'VOIRE, he was given such a huge grant as retirement but he chose not to accept it. Very wise of him as he told us then that such money can be spent off quickly especially when you do not know of a viable business to run.

Op I have to come in from a different perspective, if you are even thinking of paying 500k to get a job it's really shameful, how does that sound to you? bribery and yet we are complaining that our leaders are corrupt. I hope one day we will get it right in this country

I lost my job last year december, have been trying to get another job since then but all to no avail. Am getting frustrated by the day cos i don't see any job coming, I was able to save up to 500k during my time in my former workplace. Now, the question is...

1. Am thinking of going for MSc which i may end up spending the whole money on and God forbid, what if i still don't get any job after the programme won't i go back to square one?

2. I'm thinking maybe i could invest in something profitable and start up a little business but i really want to build my career and with that little sum of money i have, i may end up making little or no gain which i could possibly lose lots of money aswell.

3. The third and last one am really interested doing is someone promised me a job in NNPC and he is asking me to pay 300k for a slot there but from experience of what happened to be last year, i lost 150k to a family friend who promised me a job in Nigeria Custom but i end up got scammed. It didn't workout, am trying to avoid such mistake again.

I've always wish to work with a goverment parastatal (a very good one) and i don't mind forfeiting the whole 500k to get it only if i can be rest assured it will workout.

Am really confused and don't know what to do with my life....i need u guys advice please!

If getting a slot in NNPC costs 300k, then many Nigerians would have been staff of NNPC by now.

My brother, as an insider i can authoritatively tell u its a scam.

My own advise is if you can forget about shame or thinking that this particular job is not suitable for me, get a keke with that amount and take on road. Before you know it, you will double that money within a year.
But if you are the type that prefers mental work, you can learn some professional work like web design, building plans etc

250k for MSC? what's the name of the school.
You should look at his course and consider the fact that MSC is not his first choice with the way the economy is going MSC won't help much I will rather prefer he builds his career unfortunately he didn't say what his career actually is.

My friends with MSC are worst off than me, although am in a poorer country than them
I don't believe cos I v friends DT got big jobs with their MSC...ur friends might just v not reached deir destination...so Dont equate msc to been poor

Nowadays in Nigeria, Everything trends by "Who You Know" and Not "What You can Offer" 500k is way too much for the Job target, and I duly assure you that you will regret your existence if you lose that kind of money at the hands of all these hideous scammers.
I would advise you to get some certifications, Enroll for the Masters degree programme! I dont believe that with all these Targets, You'd still find it difficult to get a Befitting job.

One last advise For you, If you proceed to bribe your way into the NNPC Violin , I assure you that you are bribing your way into a Lost cause and Reckless abandon! A word is enough for the wise sad

My dear don't part with your 300k for a pomise of a slot in nnpc cos its 99% mostly likely to be a scam. NNPC doesn't fill up slots as such except for contract/casual staff.

i would advise you venture into a micro scale enterprise with half of your savings while your simulteneously haunt for job cause its a big plus to you when you attend job interview instead of just being idle which most prospective employers will perceive you as lazy, not being self motivated and lacking in initiative

Msc is a no no no no.......except maybe at the open university which should be much cheaper & flexible as you can continue from any location even if your new job equires you relocate

It is a scam. NNPC will never ask you to pay money. Even their HR people will not, privately.


How people fall for what is glaringly a scam like this still puzzles me.

I have seen too many people - including a couple of people close to me - falling victim of this.

What make this worse and most annoying are:

1, He had been scammed before (lost 300k to fictitious "customs"wink and he is still contemplating paying another 500k for "NNPC". How many times will he be beaten in same game to become just once shy?

2, You have work experience and expected to know one or two things about how things work.

Oh my God, how on earth will anyone that finished secondary school think you will pay 500k before getting a job in NNPC?

It's infuriating.

Don't pay oo. My friend paid 1.5mil and till date nothing. But the question is, why pay 500k to get a job for a 70k salary? Why don't you do the customer care jobs out there? There are a number of them. Send me your resume, that 500k isn't going no where.

Just shows how lazy most of us have become- wanting a job so we can receive a salary and NOT so we can work and earn a living.

@nurexfutmx.

Why were you saving the money?. Where you saving it so you could use it to bribe your way for a job you don't qualify?. Your type is the reason a man without a school certificate is vying for office of the president of Nigeria.
What stop you from applying for jobs yourself?

I don't have any pity for your being scammed of N150k. I wish you get scammed next time you want to get a job you don't qualify.
