Mehn, UBA is the worse bank in terms of customer service. The staff will just be taking their time not minding that you sneaked out of office to make a transaction. I have met some really nasty staff of UBA * There was a day I went into a branch of UBA in Abuja with less than 10 people in front of me but spent over one hour (with serious vexing) before being attended to; * I have removed all my money from there, except the N1,000 they said I could not withdraw. They have refused to let the account go dormant after many years (I did not update my KYC, no BVN, no ATM etc.) - but still get monthly statements via SMS! Na by force? |
May his soul rest in peace. * He is better off dead. If he survived it, some 'busy-bodies' would have made his life a living hell . . . |

Your own children will grow up and call you blessed! No longer will you be called barren! There shall be exceeding laughter in your home! May the Lord have mercy on you and remove any barrier to conception! May His devine power cause you to be fruitful! May it be done to you in accordance with your faith!!! Amen! |

My own experience as a young Lawyer about nine (9) years ago. I hope it is not the same person? It definitely sounds like 'him' ![]() After my Youth Service some years ago in Lagos, I attended the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) Meeting at the Ikeja Branch. Newcomers were asked to introduce themselves, stating name and their office address. I came to my turn and I mentioned the fact that I don't work anywhere yet. After the meeting, a one of the Senior Lawyers met me and asked if I was interested in working in his firm, I said yes. We arranged a meeting for that evening. He asked me a lot of questions about my personal and academic background. He also grilled me on issues in Corporate Governance (which I was not too conversant about at that time; That encounter sparked my interest in it). He offered me the job for a monthly pay of N30,000 (Thirty Thousand Naira). That was 2007 [I would cost me about N37,000 to transport myself to the Office for a month, excluding feeding and accommodation]. He bragged that he was offering more than most Law Firms in Lagos were paying young inexperienced lawyers. He told me that in the real sense, I should be the one paying him for giving me the rare opportunity to learn under His Eminence. 1st Day at Work I resumed work the following Monday at 7:00am. He arrived shortly after 8:00am and gave me some pleadings to draft. He went out and returned to the office around 4:00pm. I submitted the task I was assigned and sat at my desk. By 6:00pm I went to tell Oga, His Eminence that I was closing for the day. I flared "What nonsense is this? How can you close at this time? Don't think you will be closing early like this everyday!!!!". That since it was my first day at work, he will overlook my sins, but it must not repeat itself ever again. I thanked him and left. I felt humiliated and exploited even. 2nd Day at Work - Resignation Day! I resumed 7:00am as usual. Oga walked in a few minutes after 8:00am. Instructed me to write some letters to valued clients. He left and returned shortly after 4:00pm. I went to his office and submitted the draft letters. As he was reviewing them, I told him I was leaving. He started flaring up again, but before he went far, I made it clear that I did not want to work for him again. He immediately became remorseful and asked me why. I listed a few: the terms of the employment was unfair; he was too harsh; I was not too desperate; God will provide another better job for me . . . He started pleading and begging me. He even promised to increase my salary to N50,000. I said no, thanked him for 'believing' in me and I walked out a happy man, with my dignity intact! Prologue A few days latter, I was offered a FAR BETTER JOB by the Ogun State Government. I still maintain close contact with My Learned Senior, and I keep him updated of my progress in life. Lessons Learnt 1. No man controls your destiny. That is the exclusive preserve of God! (well, except you decide to mess it up yourself) 2. It does not cost God anything to bless a man; 3. When you have the opportunity to help someone and you neglect to do it, God will raise help for that person from another place, and you will not share the glory; 4. Allowing desperation to control your choices will only lead you into slavery and despair; 5. The fact that things are not working now does not mean nothing will ever work! cool |
