Congrats! Since you met the DG @ the lawmaker's office, it would mean they have a cordial relationship or the distinguished is a member of the aviation committee, appropriations or public petitions.
Sending your name as a sequel to the DG's visit points that it was on request and a ?%? of an agreement from their previous meeting. Same thing happened at FIRS & another major Sci&Tech parastatal this week that just ended. It's very different from when your senator just sends unsolicited RLs which will be subject to the willingness, descretion and/or mercy of the DG. Once again, congrats!

Thanks. Ur right hes a member of the aviation committee. So I think that’s y it was easy to get a letter from him to the organization. He gave two people FIRS slots in font of me that day. To be honest I think there are good people out there that might be willing to help you. But you wouldn’t know because you Havnt even tried to meet them. I got all sorts of discouragement when I wanted to see the senator. He might try to sleep with me, collect my cv and throw it away etc but I still went. Goodluck to those looking for a job. time will come...

Ubangiji pls pick my call and place me in a good federal government agency. Na beg I dey beg you.

EngrBriggs:
you left out NIRSAL, FIRS, SEC, IST, Customs Service & Budget office.

i never said its all

Congrats in advance sis.

Please are you from the south east?

I also need help to get into National Assembly.

Can I just go and they will let me enter? Which day of the week is best to go if I want to see any senator?

Please does anyone have the list of Parastatals each senator is heading as a committee?

I am from the north. Honestly entering that place is tricky because you need a pass and in order to get it they Hav to send your name to the gate frm that senators office or you call the senator in frnt of them and he talks to them and they will allow you in. But the last time I went, I saw some people using names that were not theirs to get inside the National Assembly for example the names the senator sends, if those people are not able to come or for one reason or the other have entered the National Assembly without requiring a pass, some people replace their names with the names on the list and since they don’t check for ID card, there is no way that they will know that ur not the one. They will give u ur pass and u enter. I think that should be the best option for those that dnt have a way of getting in. The best to go on days that they are not sitting. It’s always easier to see them. or even if they are sitting, u Hav to wait till around 1:30 pm to see them. But they might be tired and won’t have time to attend to you. So that’s y it’s advisable to go on days that they are not sitting.

you are a very honest and open person. Your sincerity will open even greater doors for you by God's grace. All the best in your career!

burantashii:

oga calm down....neither did I.

We both know those are not even all the parastatals under F,B&NP. I thought we were pointing out 'lucrative' parastatals under Finance and I felt those shouldn't have been left out. Maybe I should have added them without quoting you.

It will be difficult to get this......you will need to be more specific. Then it will be easier to list them per committee either at the upper or lower chamber.

In the HoR for example, Banking and Currency stands as a separate committee from Insurance and Actuarial Matters. Banking and Currency oversights CBN, NDIC, NSPMC etc while Insurance and Actuarial Matters oversight NAICOM etc

However in the Senate.....Banking, Insurance and other Financial Institutions are merged together as one standing committee and therefore has purview over more MDAs than same committee in the HoR.

Moreover, you have to be aware of the committees your senator or rep is a member of. Your senator may not be a chairman of any standing committee but must be a member of at least 5-6 other committees. You may never know what committee(s) he/she is a member of until you access him or his SLA. If he/she is just a member of Marine Transport Committee, he will definitely get slots when agencies like NPA, NIMASA, NIWA, NFFC, NSC etc are recruiting yet he/she isnt heading a committee.

Nope just asking

Honestguy13577:

Did you get a job there bro ?
I am also interested in that agency but I heard it difficult to get in except you have strong connection and I am praying for one. I don't even mind if someone legit can help me secure a job there and then reward the person.

Hannae:

From what I observed here it seems the senators have upper hands in getting slots than house of Representatives.

Is the statement above true?

You can only know the committees which serve as the umbrella body of the parastatals.

Truthfully, they both get slots all the time but not in equal proportion. There is a reason the Senate is being refered to as the 'upper chamber'.

Na senior men dey Senate.....seasoned politicians, ex-governors, ex-ministers etc.

Only the Senate has the power to screen and confirm ministers, heads of some agencies and extra-ministerial departments including the CBN governor, EFCC Chairman etc

Therefore, you should expect that the Senate will wield more influence than their colleagues at the lower chamber. But trust me, if you have good access to the Speaker, Deputy Speaker or any of the principal officers in the House of Reps or even a committee chairman who knows his onions (many of them na JJC), then you are good to go.

Let me put it this way, which Parastatals are senators representing Imo and Gombe state overseeing?

I served in Gombe state maybe I can try my luck with one of their senators. I also observed that Northerners help more than their Eastern counterparts.

Only your state of origin senator or HoR can truly help you except you have a personal relationship with the state senator where you served.
I'm open to correction though.

Anybody that wants to help you will do. Whether state senator or not

oretiti:

you don't know how these people think. She is right.....forget about issuance of recommendation letters. We are talking real job slots here. No Senator or Reps that is not from your state will offer you a job slot except you have a personal relationship with him/her or was recommended/refered to them from someone they respect.

Infact, some Senators are mean to random people from their district who approach them. They'll tell you they don't know you or will be pushing you around. I know a particular HoR from Imo State (a first timer for that matter) who does not even issue simple recommendation letters for his own constituents.

A particular Senator from O**o was doing that (he would help you irrespective of where you are from) until last week. He started tearing recommendation letters brought to him by his secretary for his signature even if you are from south west. Except you are from his state and particularly his district. He now wants to contest for Governor and wants to focus only on his people.

Fact is why will I even give you my slot when you have your own Senator who will get slots too.....People of my senatorial district voted me and not people of your senatorial district. I know a Senator from SW who will ask you to produce your voter's card before he even listens to you.

I dare say the percentage of those who will help you without knowing you ab initio is less than 15% of the total lawmakers and being a female is even more advantageous. You know women have their way of warming their way into our hearts

IMO
Sen. Ben Uwajumogu - Chairman, Senate Committee on Employment, Labour and Productivity.
Parastatals - National Directorate of Employment, National Industrial Court, National Productivity Center.

Sen. Rochas Okorocha - Chairman, Senate Committee on Culture and Tourism.
Parastatals - National Institute for Hospitality and Tourism, National Council for Arts and Culture, National Commissiom for Museums and Monuments, National Gallery of Arts, Nigeria Tourism Development Commission, National Institute for Cultural Orientation etc

Sen. Ezenwa Francis - Vice Chairman, Senate Committee on States and Local Government

GOMBE
Sen. Amos Bulus - Vice Chairman, Senate Committee on Niger Delta.
Parastatal - NDDC

Sen. Saidu Alkali - Chairman, Senate Committee on National Identity and National Population.
Parastatals - NIMC, National Population Commission.

Sen. Danjuma Goje - Chairman, Senate Committee on Marine Transport.
Parastatals - Nigerian Ports Authority, NIMASA, NIWA, Nigerian Shippers Council, Maritime Academy of Nigeria etc


I think Sen. Goje is also a member of Petroleum Upstream Committee (DPR, PTDF, PTI etc) and Army or so......

Like I said, only someone working close to these Senators can give you a full list of the committees they are members of. For example, if someone in Sen. Okorocha's office tells you he is a Chairman of Culture/Tourism and member of Navy, Tertiary Education, Land Transport, Power and FCT, then we can begin to talk of the parastatals under his purview.

Yes, Northern Senators have more tendency to help but there are no exceptions to the rule. Even the Northern lawmakers don dey wise up although they are more approachable still.

It's my pleasure ma. Nothing we no dey see for Nairaland ooo.....that was how someone on this thread said NIPOST entry level salary is 220k. If I didn't know people in NIPOST, na so we for chop the lie. He was confident about it and even said they started paying that amount since 2016. As at last week, my cousin is still praying that NIPOST pays the N15,000 (fifteen thousand) annual rent allowance for 2018 (not even 2019).
