honeric01: Every body wan work for bank..It seems you dont even know what "UNIVERSITY EDUCATION" is all about? Now, Let me break it down for you.......as in course 101: University Education widens your knowledge, widens your thinking, widens your horizon and thus, using training from a diverse pool of courses (as much as possible) so that when you go out into the "Employee or Employer World", you are AS PREPARED AS POSSIBLE to either "hit the ground running" or to catch-up with a few weeks Training "Upgrade". So, that an Engineer works as a cashier or becomes a CEO, is no big-deal!...Or dont we have Engineers and Doctors that became Chartered Accountants? Ajavascript:void(0);gain, what is all this rubbish about "everybody wan work for bank"? If the banking sector, like the Oil or Telecoms sector, is well-paying, why should people who are confident in their abilities not desire to work in those Sectors? Have you ever worked in those sectors before? Go and ask those who work there, ask how many "Qualifying Test and Interviews" they have to scale, to get a job in that sector.. And it is so all over the world. If those at Management level of a bank use customers money to gamble and pay for their lavish lifestyles (Buying jeeps for themselves every year, taking loans they have no intention of repaying and awarding lavish "estacodes" to themselves).....is that the fault of those being sacked now? What is the contribution of a "Supervisor or Banking Officer" grade-staff for example, to the financial and policy decision making of a Bank? Naaada!! But when the chicken come hoem to roost and the bank runs into problems, they are the one to be sacked,....by the same Management level staff that mis-managed the bank! It is the fault of a "bad system" that glorifies thievery, human abuse and cronyism! Anyway, the lower cadre staff are the "Pawns" in this game of financial chess, the 'Kings and Queens that eat the fat' are always delighted when they see the Pawns blaming and tearing themselves to pieces, over what they know nothing about!

IF YOU PLACE AN ENGR IN RISKY POSITIONS AS BANKING AND IGNORE EXPLOITING THE VALUABLE SKILLS OF SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY STUDIED BANKING AND ACCOUNTING,HOW DO YOU EXPECT SUCH PERSON WHOSE WHOLE STUDIOUS LIFE IN SCHOOL WAS SPENT HANDLING TOOLS TO UNDERSTAND FULL AND INDEPTH PRINCIPLES OF BANKING,HE WILL NOT ONLY FAIL BUT ALSO FAIL WITH BANK,THAT'S WHY WE HAVE FAILED BANKS THESE DAYS, SECONDLY,WE HAVE WRONG AND ONE OF THE MOST STUDIEST EMPLOYERS AND HUMAN RESOURCES WHO PUT A PHYSICIAN ABOVE A BANKING AND FINANCE GRADUATE BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HAVE THE COMMON DEGREE THAT ALL HAS,IGNORING THE POTENTIALS OF THE OTHER CANDIDATE THAT HAVE SPENT IS STUDIOUS LIFE READING BANKING AND ACCOUNTING DAY IN,DAY OUT BECAUSE HE POSSESS ANOTHER EQUIVALENT DEGREE,IS THAT A PROFESSIONALISM ? BANKING IS NOT MEANT TO BE LIFE SAVERS FOR JOBLESS SCIENCE GRADUATES,THEY'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND IT,EXCEPT. THEY TAKE THE NORMAL 4 YEAR COURSE,THEIR APPROACH MIGHT LOOK PROFITABLE AT FIRST,BUT HOW MANY OF THESE SCIENCE PROS WOULD AGREE THAT NOT ALL PROFITS ARE INCOME,IF YOU TELL THEM,THEY'LL LAUGH AT YOU AND SACK YOU ! A MEDICAL BANKER BOSS ONCE STUPIDLY MOCKED AND ARGUED WITH HIS JUNIOR BANKING COLLEAGUE THAT A CAR IS A LIABILTY,THINGS THE YOUNG BANKING GRADUATE HAD ARGUED OUT AND PROFESSIONALLY HAD ACCEPTED AS AN ASSET AT 100 LEVEL WAY BACK IN UNDERGRAD AFTER ENOUGH TUTELAGE BY LECTURERS,NOW AN ARROGANT MEDICAl BANKER WANTS TO COME AND CHANGE A THOUSAND-YEAR OLD BANKING AND ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE. IF THE OWNERS OF BANKS FAIL TO UNDERSTAND THAT ONLY A PARTICULAR SET OF PROFESSIONALS CAN DO THEIR JOBS MORE FLAWLESSLY AND ENGAGE THE SERVICES OF WRONG PROS AT CRITICAL POSITIONS AND LEADERSHIP,IT WILL PUT MORE TOXINS IN THE SYSTEM,BECAUSE NON BANKING GRADUATES UNDERSTANDS THAT THERE'S A PRINCIPLE IN ACCOUNTING CALLED ''GOING CONCERN PRINCIPLE'' WHERE AN ORGANISATION MUST AND NOT JUST EXPECTED TO AS A LAY MAN WOULD THINK,RUN IN PERPETUITY AND NOT FOLD-UP OR LAY-OFF STAFFS WITHOUT ABOSUTELY CHECKING ALL KEY INDICES. BANKING IS NOT ALL ABOUT FLOUTING,NOISE-MAKING,SCANDULOUS ACCOUNT RENDERING,LOTTO AND BONANZAS,ENGINEERING,MEDICINE,PHYSICS,CHEMISTRY. BANKING IS STEWARDSHIP RENDERED BY CORE PROFESSIONALS WHO HAS INDEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF FINANCE AND ECOMICAL SCIENCE OF KEEPING A CLIENT'S STOCKS AND VALUABLES BY ENSURING IT WORKS FOR THEM WITHOUT LOOSING ITS WORTH. A BANKER IS A PROFESSIONAL WHO MUST HAVE GRADUATED FROM AN ACCREDITED BUSINESS OR BANKING SCHOOL AND NOT AN ENGINEERING,MEDICAL OR DRAMA SCHOOL,WHO HAVING GRADUATED AND CERTIFIED TO HAVE READ A SOCIAL SCIENCES AND WELL TUTORED IN AT LEAST 2 TO 3 YEARS IN ACCOUNTING OR BANKING CAN AND SHOULD BE PUT AS STEWARD TO SAFEGUARD AND RENDER THE STOCKS OF ITS CUSTOMERS ECONOMICALLY WELL. LET FAULTY HUMAN RESOURCES IN SOME OF THESE BANKS PUT THEIR ACTS TOGETHER,BANKING IS NOT A GOLDMINE. LET ALSO GREEDY GRADUATES FROM OTHER. DISCIPLINES INCLUDING SOCIAL SCIENCES START SOMETHING FOR THEMSELVES,THEY SEEK FOR HELP,SOLICIT,OR BORROW,NOT DOING NOTHING DOESN'T MAKE YOU LOOK LAZY TO OTHERS,IN FACT HOLD YOURSELF UP HIGH BECAUSE YOU WERE CONTENDED WITH YOUR SCIENCE DEGREE AND DID NOT PROSTITUTE YOUR DEGREE fOR A BANKING CAREER YOU NEVER BARGAINED FOR . |

lastpage: It seems you dont even know what "UNIVERSITY EDUCATION" is all about?BOSS I DON'T THINK YOU STILL GET WHAT THE GUY IS SAYING ! IF AS A MEDICAL DOCTOR OR ENGR YOU NOW HAPPEN TO FIND BANKING INTERESTING,THEN IT'S NO PROBLEM AS LONG AS YOU CAN FACE THE RIGOROUS TASKS OF TRAINING WHICH IS EMBEDDED IN THE FOUNDATIONAL ETHICS AND PROFESSIONALISM ASSOCIATED WITH BANKING AND ACCOUNTING. IN WHICH IT IS ALMOST LIKE YOU BURNING-UP YOUR MEDICAL CERTS AND DECIDING TO START AFRESH AS IF YOU NEVER HAD GRADUATED BEFORE. SO IF YOU LIKE,TAKE ICAN,CIBN,ACCA,AS AN ENGR OR WHATEVER YOU WILL START AT FOUNDATION,AND IF CATCH UP WITH THE CORE ACCOUNTING SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE IN ABOUT 3 OR 4 YRS YOU CAN BE A FULL FLEDGED ACCOUNTANT WHICH IS THE BASIC EQUIVALENT DURATION OR TENOR FOR UNDERGRADUATE BANKING OR FINANCE,NO MORE,NO LESS. BUT HOW MANY OF THESE SCIENCE BASED CANDIDATES ACTUALLY WANT TO TAKE UP THIS CHALLENGE ? I SEE A TOTALLY GREEDY YOUTHS,MORE REASONS,THERE ARE HIGH TOLL OF FRAUDS IN BANKS BECOS SOME OF THESE SET OF NON BANKING GRADUATES LACK THE BASICS OF THE TRADE. THEY ALWAYS WANT TO BRING IN CHURCH VALUE OR MOSQUE VALUE PRINCIPlES AS REPLACEMENT TO FOUNDATIONAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND ETHICS AS SUCH AS UTMOST GOOD FAITH. IT CAN NEVER WORK,A NON BANKER SHOULDN'T BE CLAIMING HE CAN DO BANKING WHEN ALL HE HAS HIS A 2 MONTHS OR EVEN WEEKS OF SPENDTHRIFT TRAINING WITH THE. BANK |

SOME PEOPLE ARE FUNNY,THEY WANT SANUSI TO SAVE THE JOB OF 5000 BANK WORKERS AND LET THE BANK GO AGROUND. LOL WHAT WAPPED LOGIC. WITHOUT THE BANK THERE WOULD BE NO BANK WORKERS IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE ACTION OF SANUSI SAVED THE BANKS,THEREFORE SAVING THE JOBS OF THOUSANDS OF EMPLOYEES AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLES LIFES SAVINGS IN REAL CASH. THEREFORE IF ONLY 5000 LOSES THEIR JOB INSTEAD OF 50,000 WHO IS THE HERO HERE? |

fyneguy: Bros, I disagree with u on why the banks are retrenching. I was a banker over a decade ago and currently provide some tech solutions to banks, which put me in a vantage position to be privy to the real issues with these banks. ↲Truth is that most of the banks deal in volatile and unsustainable revenue streams. The managements of these banks are either clueless, lack creativity or both, as to how banking should be done for sustainable operations. What most of them do is accummulate short-term deposits and rush to buy treasury bills. Then, take usually fraudulent charges on customers' accts. Some banks built their deposit portfolio with ill-gotten pension funds, oil subsidy funds and other fraudulent sources. Once those sources dried up, they got into trouble. You should do a study on the deposit, loan and revenue characters of these banks, you'll understand why these banks, and by extension, Nigerian economy are in a sorry state. Word!This best illustrates the problem |

Just to drop my opinion..... I agree with honeric01, most graduates we have now are indomie graduates, they want everything fast and instantly. They lack CREATIVITY and their views about themselves and their environment is NEGATIVE. They never believe things can work out for them with PASSION and PERSISTENT AND DETERMINATION. If you want to be GREAT, you have to cross hurdles..... not one or not two.....many.............. go and ask the SUCCESSFUL ones around and listen to their stories. That is when you can tell your success story...... In this Nigeria many people had started their business without money and had a successful business. The problem with most people is that they refuse to learn and automatically they can't earn. They never want to invest their money in them self... ask them to read book....no, ask them to attend seminar......no, ask them to get a mentor......they will never take you serious. You most people have not really sat down and think about their life, let forget about government providing jobs....it is not the core responsibility of the Government to provide jobs... It is the duty of the private sector to provide jobs 'DON'T THINK OF WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU RATHER THINK OF WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY' Business is about solving problem, solve problems for people and they will happily give you their money. God will only crown our efforts, if we try and try and try and try and try one more time. I LOVE NIGERIA |

If this is how they do it in that developed world you live in right now, do you think you would have cars to drive, pen to write with? electricity, tvs to watch e.t.c? if their engineers were working in the bank, who then is going to design or build all these stuffs you use your money to buy? |

manny4life: I may not agree with you completely, the Nigerian business climate is not immune to poor Govt policies, a few policies here and there can send you packing without warning, considering the brain dead leaders we have such occurrences are pretty frequent. A billionaire like ibeto one of our biggest entrepreneurs never knew that between 2005 to 2007 he will be idling and drinking ogogoro in otolo Nnewi, thanks to Obasanjo's demetia. rightly put, every job cut is an enterprenuer that failed or about to fail or trying to survive. |

honeric01: your level of realistic business info of this country is so limited. where do you want me to start. Dangote: started enjoying govt concessions since his stock fish days to cement age Atiku (intels); almost the owner of The whole free trade zones in this country otedola: at least diesel in 2006 rang a bell tompolo: Nigerian water ways JB: fedral and state govts ditto: atiku made Dana group: Obj made NEST oil,con oil, MRS just mention it etc etc etc the list is endless, i can give you minimum of 100 people that established big businesses climbing on govts back.that is how corruption in Nigeria pays off. as you dream of your entrepreneurship, know ye that your fingers will never touch any contract above one million naira on a level play ground which of course doesn't exist in Nigeria. the businesses you hear about esp the big ones don't just start. Pascal dozie can connect MTN with diamond bank better, same for the Tinubus, Adewale group the okoyes etc. the business doesn't just start, there is always someone that is placed high in Govt or company that shoots the catapult that make things happen. if you sincerely think you can wake up and establish a big successful business without swimming in Nepotism, then your case wont be different from the shop owners along Rumuola and okporo road who are getting one seventh of their business worth from Govt as compensation while those along woji road remain in peace because they know the governor. continue fantasizing, Naija is not always the way it seems. |

honeric01: And you don't think that if the businesses were robust more departments/branches will be created that will most likely absorb the redundant ones, the big question is this; why is the business not expanding? i bet the answer lies with our Economic magician retadeen lamido sanurat, because the last time i checked, the defunct intercontinental bank (as murdered by sanusi) had its branches doubled during the era of his predecessor. |

honeric01: Dangote made it bigger than the obscure example you have in mind. yes Dangote got big over night, if he only traded with his capital abinitio without Govt concessions, he wont even smell the richest in Kano let alone Africa. A system with Nepotism can never be trusted with successful business models don't get it twisted please do not misconstrue the word "overnight" in my post. do you know what it means for only 2 or 3 people to be importing solely stock fish consumed by an over 100million population? do you know that as back as 2005 or so, dangote has already secured a near "tax free" cement imports grants and a plethora of concessions that competing with him today is almost impossible? we are talking about someone whose political apparatchik has carved a whole sector for him to monopolize in a population of over 167 million people damn!!!!! |
