Yummy thread just finished series of cooking for the week. Two soups edikaikong and Afan.

This post made up my mind for me...
That's it!!! I'm coming home for Christmas… The way it's going… It might snow before Christmas…. I reject pizza and vodka in my life this Christmas!!

This is old story abeg...

So that means 250 naira to a dollar in black market .Up u my man Jonathan

The reason for the devaluation is a fallout from the fall in global oil prices and America's recent resort to shale oil....
It's not 100% an administrative issue...

Op.. Your source please?

E done clear to am say he no fit win

Or he's afraid that he won't be able to put up with the performance of the present administration....

Ewu Hausa....better call you children (Boko) to order!!

whao:
The same question I ask a friend when he showed me the video today, I nearly went into comma out of anger trying to see how I can penetrate the ipad to go save that child but remembered my head can't enter the ipad.
I pray the child live and forgive the maid if she is still alive.

With this, when I get married
Rule No 1: Noooo housemaid.

Take it or leave it.

I support you 100%
I've told her too...if you can't get a job (after the children) start school...that closes at about the same time the children's school will close.... Forget it!!!

1stola:
As young as a young man.

Good...
It's not considered "smart" to talk about things you know little or nothing about...
Do be careful with your choice of words....at least for posterity sakes....so you never have cause to look back and say..."had I known"....

1stola:
See him
Yeye indiscipline man planning strategy that will later destroy his people.

Four words; Very, very, very LAME!!!

A friend was trying to install some software on my Mac book and screamed when she saw the complete Adobe suite on my laptop....

Swallows saliva …. swallows hard again…
Errmm…excuse me… i don't mean to be rude….but something told me i will meet my better half on NL today
If you are not married….then i think it's you...

majekdom2:
are you in this field of profession ... if NO , you are the one misleading and you should get your facts right before you allege false claims . for you to be chatered you have to practice with an auditing firm for a period of time ... thats work experience . it is a requirement , the audit firm has to be a registered member of ICAN also . there are professions that put less prioority on theortical knowledge but hands on exprience . the accounting profession is one of such.

I will not bother arguing with you… there's no point!

majekdom2:
OK sir..... how long does it take to be a certified chatered accountant and what are the requirement and how long does it take to have an M sc accounting.

I'm sorry but; i don't understand your question. I'm only pointing out to you that an ICAN does not give you any work experience… neither does an MSc in accounting.

majekdom2:
A masters degree does not give you any real work experience . it only gives you an edge because you have foucsed on a particular area of interest unlike the first degree that covers basically all the aspect of that profession. A masters degree gives you an opportunity to research more on a particular area . Why people rush abroad for masters in naija is because of the high rate of unemployment and to further boost their skills .... I mean networking , team work and research which the Nigerian institutions don't offer you . Majorty of the entry level jobs are minimum a first degree , in a situation where a masters degree holder is competing with a bachelor's degree holder with say some months of experience and they have equal basic performance , the recruiters may tend to go for the bachelor's degree holder . you may have great knowledge about a profession but you may loose a position to someone with experience .... experience means putting your knowledge into practice.
How ever , not all professional courses are worth it .An Ican certificate gives you an edge over a masters degree in the accounting profession because the Ican leaves you with some work experience. In the engineering industry , some professional courses are not worth it , why because those courses requires some experience before you may understand those courses fully .. . on and on for different professions , the best thing is to understand you line of profession , talk to expert in that profession , they would help with the best advices.

Don't mislead people. Half information is worse than no information at all.
The bolded is definitely not true!!!

zappyj:
Ok, where are you @ the moment?

In the UK.

opaMBMA:
Via email would be a good option or you can post on the discussion thread.
Though if it entails Gigabytes of data (which I suspect) it may be a problem 4 us to download as I trust our ISP's won't deliver(as usual).
I would plead that if you are in lagos and you don't mind, I could meet up with you at a location of your choosing at your convenience and collect them manually to distribute to any1 dt calls on me.

Regards. (opadejiopakunle@gmail.com)

I'm not sure i can send the files via email; they're large. over 10GB i guess…
And i'm not in Lagos too… If i can just drop off the link here…then you and anyone else who needs it can download in a location where you have free WiFi..
Problem is; i don't know how to share the link here...

zappyj, frankyj, opaMBMA…

Have managed to get all the CFA (L1) materials i have on dropbox… videos, Kaplan lecture notes and question bank...

Does anyone know how i can share the link here?

(AF) You can switch off your ac and roll down your Windows.... No LASTMA ahead....

justwise:
Bro you are massively underestimating the value of work experience especially when you have it on your CV from both side of Atlantic.

It's not always about money

Well....you may be correct.... Perhaps I do underestimate it....

DisGuy:
The way i read his post, he's finished with his programme, probably has some few months left on his visa...so not necessarily staying back..just filling in with some real work experience...

Fair enough....

Well...Mayo47.... Here you have it.... Arguments from both sides of the equation....
Wish you luck as you decide

DisGuy:
Valuable work experience IMO (if you can afford it) something for your CV and networking- fancy title too
Ask for travel/lunch expenses if you can



it's not compulsory, He applied for it
many students applying for studies in the UK especially after the cancellation of the PWS visa ARE (should be) aware of working limitations in the UK/EU

He sought opinion… I gave him mine….
He already has cognate work experience from Nigeria… and its safe to assume he wants to return to Nigeria to work.
If you're suggesting he stays back in the UK to do "charity" work; … Factor in the cost of living and the fact that he could actually land a paid job in Nigeria when he gets back…..
well… what can i say…it's his decision to make...
Was he aware it was unpaid work before he applied? If the answer to this question is yes; then id say he's made his decision already…

What i'm saying in essence is; there are other factors to consider before he takes an informed decision; not just the fancy job title...

mayo47:
I got an offer for an unpaid internship in a museum as a business performance analyst, is it worth it considering my interest are in investment and banking together with few years banking experience in nigeria and am almost done with my pogram presently considering moving back in 2 weeks to start job hunting. Your feedback would highly be appreciated

Give them the middle finger bro...
1.) It's unrelated to your field of specialization...
2.) It's unpaid!!!

You bring thousands of pounds into their economy and a year after....they still want you to do unpaid work?
Are you a philanthropist? Or you run a charity?
How will you survive here with unpaid work? Even those in paid employment scratch....so how will you do it?
I'm only here until I write the CFA exams in December.... I will definitely leave 2 days afterwards!!
cold people, cold country

OP..
You saved your life… F*uck the gnome, the secretary and the salary… You'll get a better job…

In 2011 i was hospitalised for one month and absent from work for 3 months… because i had pneumonia… because i was trying to be considerate to those who claimed they felt warm if the AC wasn't at 16 degrees with max fan…

Guess what…when i resumed and i asked to change sitting positions; no one wanted to swap with me…even the same people wey dey form "it's hot in here"….even those wey no get fan for house…talk more of AC…

Any day wey you see any of those people for Zanga… holla me; I go follow you beat them… Mad people

MissTeaseMe:
