ladywriter:
Great. I will be making posts once or twice a week on how i make money on the internet. It is not something that is difficult. I work on www.freelancer.com and I joined the website about a year ago. It is a free website where everyone can make money in as much as you are not lazy. Although, i joined the website as a freelancer writer, today, i combined research, data entry and typing jobs together as occasion demands. So, whether you can write or not, you can still make money on the website through data entry, research using Google, file conversions, web design, etc. The list is numerous. So, the first thing to do now is to over to www.freelancer.com and get familiar with the site and then check out the projects posted on the website to see what you can do over there, then we can take it from there.
Note: You don't have to pay a dime, it is very free and you get to withdraw your money directly into your Nigeria bank account.
The website is a bit complex, but i am going to try to break it down so that everyone understands. Once, you have a feel of the website, let me know your comments and questions on it. This is an interactive thread, so let's make it lively.


I'm interested. I even joined freelancer recently. but I quited due to inappropriate profile setup at initial stage

Politics / National ASSEMBLY IS NOT BROKE!! by Alabitrends01: 3:59pm On Aug 29, 2016
NATIONAL ASSEMBLY IS NOT BROKE !

As I read about the national Assembly's broke situation , I reminisced about the old days in school (university to be precise) , where most students spend extravagantly at the first few weeks of resumption. My fellow Yorubas name those first few weeks " òse ìgberagá". A.K.A the 'show yourself week'.

Personally , I also remembered that it's only when am broke the 'Baba sala' Bournvita, cartons of indomie ,milk and other goodies is substituted with sweet potatoes and Garri ( the student's power), with a rigorous eatings "garau-garau"- only my Arewa fellows can understand the logic behind that.

Although student's extravagance behaviour , similar in nature but unconnected in a real sense I discussed at the beginning has been in existence from the inception of
our so called (mismanagement Assembly) or National Assembly rather, but it took a different turn this time around as Nigeria is facing serious economic hardship.
With the recent outburst of the senate leader Ali Ndume , that the National Assembly is broke, I discovered that these economic hardship has held both the serfs and the lords by the jugular. But if am not wrong , since National Assembly
has failed to save against rainy days ,may I say its too early for the senate leader's outcry for their brokenness?


One of the most outstanding and superfluous act exercised by the 8th National Assembly is the purchase of over 4.7 billion Naira Exotic cars for 120 'Sin-ators' as
of December last year. The confusing aspect was the purchase of 120 cars for 109 Sin-ators. If not for prodigal display at its highest peak, what purpose will the
remaining eleven utility vehicles serve?


Interestingly, the result of market survey estimate conducted by Premium Times regarding the vehicles purchased by National Assembly does not even correspond
with the regular market price. For the fact that the allegation was prevaricated by the senate does not change the matter. Either small or big, extravagance remains
the same. Who knows , if not for the outrageous budget saga, this should have been the most visible and exotic padding of the year.


As if that was not enough, the senate leader discontentedly lament over late payment of just a month salary. Sincerely speaking there's no how a legislative
worker can be broke, compared to an ordinary school teacher, talk less of the salary differences.. As at present, majority of civil servants at lower levels, especially the school teachers and local government workers are yet to be paid over 6-8 months salary( peanut) in some states, despite the bailout offered by F.G.- Kogi is a perfect example, where workers simply jubilate over receiving
just a 10% of two or one month salary, out of 6-9 months they were owed.


Atimes the enormity of amount earmarked for executives and legislators arouses my curiosity on whether they were specially created by God to enjoy while others are meant to suffer.


I must conclude with the opinion that National Assembly's expenditure is too excessive. As such,it should be thoroughly scrutinized and repudiated by Nigerians. Because, "Ibi kan ko jù ibi lo, Bi àse bì erù ni á bi omo" - it would have been better if executives ,legislators, school teachers and other parastatals were almost, or equally remunerated.

Politics / Is Lamido Sanusi Wasting Away In Kano?? by Alabitrends01: 1:13pm On Aug 27, 2016
Is Lamido Sanusi wasting away in Kano?

By Dr. Ahmed Adamu



Sitting on the throne of the Kano Emirate stool is the no-nonsense and fearless, I
dare say saviour of the Nigerian financial sector. The global and African central
bank governor of the year (2010), a whistle blower and fighter, one of the 100
most influential people in the world (2011), an Islamic scholar and a ranking Fulani
noble man.
His name is Sarki Sanusi Lamido Sanusi. He saved 24 commercial banks in Nigeria
that were on the brink of collapse. You won’t be wrong if you say he is
perceived as the most courageous public servant who took mustered the courage
to expose what many reckoned as excessive corruption and financial
mismanagement against the government of his time. His bravery and boldness
came with a stiff price that caused his suspension from office, not knowing that
truth will pay him even more few months after.


As the Nigerian central bank governor, his policies were against the extreme
capitalists who accumulated illegal wealth at the expense of the poor. He was the
people’s bank governor, and ensured softer banking policies for the masses and
guaranteed their deposits. He sacked powerful bank managing directors and
charged them for their corrupt practices, a move that many termed “Sanusi
Thunami”. The introducer of the cashless economy and an orator and mentor to
the young people.

He was the first from northern Nigeria to become the MD of the First Bank Plc,
one of the biggest financial institutions in Africa. A renown economist with 30
years of banking experience, he is also a development economist and practitioner.

In his anti-corruption campaign, he opposed the Nigerian petroleum subsidy
regime that subsidises corruption. He is the emir of the second ranking royal
kingdom in northern Nigeria. He once asked his followers to revenge on attacks
by Boko Haram militant group, a call that led to an attack on his mosque killing
more than 150 of his people.

Having briefly described who Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is, who I would rather call SLS,
one would believe that such a person is a national resource that any country will
long to have. I do not see a better time when Nigeria needed the services of SLS
again than now. A time when the historical democratic revolution became possible
in Nigeria, a time when the long awaited change arrived, a time when the masses
look up with high hope and optimism into the future, and a time when the
country is yearning for seasoned technocrats to actualise the real change.

Unequivocally, this is not the time for trial and error in some sensitive
government positions, it is not time for political compensations.
It is time to build a new Nigeria; the tested and trusted ones must be brought
forward even against their wishes to deliver national assignments. However, they
must be mixed with younger ones to train and inspire them.

Nigeria does not want to fail again. The democratic prosperity of the country lies
on the success of this administration, so it is the responsibility of all Nigerians to
pitch in and contribute toward upholding the democratic virtues in Nigeria. The
failure of this administration will be tantamount to dampening the spirit of
democratic transparency and honesty. The struggle that Nigerians undertook to
ensure democracy prevails must be compensated with excellent performance by
the government, and this cannot happen without people like SLS.

This is the time we need to flush out corruption entirely from Nigeria, the time
to put back our economy back on track. The time to restore the value of the
Naira, the time to diversify the economy, and the time to create more jobs. And
SLS has all it takes to help this administration achieve these objectives. I will call it
a suicide mission if Nigeria fails this time around, while people like SLS are just
watching on the throne.

It sounds delusional for some promising royal families to be obsessed to the
traditional institutions. There is much more SLS can offer to humanity than just
being a king. It is sad that such a resource person is consumed by obsession for
traditional institution. Despite SLS’s vast experience, he is now confined to a
particular place, ruling only the people of Kano without much economic and
political power to make decisive changes. SLS is now under the state control
managed by politicians, whose rules sometimes supersedes that of the king.


In modern democratic structure, traditional rulers have little or no role; most of
their duties are now placed on relevant government ministries and departments.

The question therefore is what is the compelling roles of kings in our societies
today that will prevent them from offering their services to the country? Some
will say they settle disputes and serve as a monument of the historical lineage of
the then powerful kings, who fought wars and institute governance pre-colonial
era.
The king is more or less ceremonial, because in every district, he has
representative who is closer to the people and settles their disputes. So, a king
can even rule from anywhere, as long as he receives reports from the districts
and royal heads. With Sharia courts, people may not have to resort to the
emirates to settle grievances any more. I do not intend to condemn the entire
traditional institution, because at least I am a fan of durbar back in Katsina, and I
love to see the traditional heads in their royal horses with beautiful decorations.

Therefore, you can see now SLS is beyond just being a Kano king, in fact, he was
the preferred presidential candidate of many, and until he was appointed emir, he
was among the front presidential hopefuls. His speech at the Abuja TeDex
convinced many young people that he has what it takes to rule not just Kano but
Nigeria.

Nigerians should rise and demand for the service of SLS once again. He
should pull off that turban and take eight years sabbatical leave from the emirate
and come to Abuja as minister of finance, and then he can go back and rule Kano
till his death. While he is on the sabbatical leave, he can keep visiting the emirate
just like the way Buhari visits his farm regularly. SLS may wish to continue wearing
his royal attires, and will always go to Kano for the official durbar ceremony
twice a year.
Therefore, I call on PMB to appoint SLS as a minister in his cabinet, and force him
to accept the offer in the event he hesitates.

PRISTINEMUSCLES:
Myth number 3
IF YOU DO COUNTLESS NUMBER OF SIT-UPS IN A DAY,YOU WILL EVENTUALLY ACHIEVE A WELL-RIPPED OUT ABS.
This is another fallacy from God knows where.
When i started training, i noticed my muscles were undergoing tremendous transformation but when i looked at my stomach,i would hiss.Reason being that they looked quite bloated.Although at that time i was not paying much attention to my abs.
I told some of my colleagues about my plight and they told me to be doing multiple numbers of sit-ups daily.I took their advice but it was as if i was flogging a "dead horse". I did not notice any change in my abs. Then i went online did some researches. All i saw were do sit-ups/abs-crunches.
But one article caught my fancy. It was as if kratos wanted me to have that much desired ripped mid-section.
I devoured the article like a mad-man eating bread and bean-cakes.






I'm a fan. have been working on my midsection for long, with little result...please direct me to d website

3. Ability to work as a team
4. Ability to lead and be led
5. Very Open, responsiveness, agile and alert

Business / UBA Bank Credits My Account Twice, Out Of Error. Should I Refund? by Alabitrends01: 6:44pm On May 17, 2016
hello N\landers,
last month, the Acount I open for NYSC purpose! (Allawee) was credited twice . this is how it happened. have never given this account number to anyone, neither does anyone ask for it. but like I said it the account I opend at taraba camp for receiving allawee from Federal Gov.
last month I received my allawee as usual, so I decided to transfer 27 thousand one hundred naira (previous and present month of april)for personal savings before I devour all the money, The transfer I made to another bank was successful which I confirmed. but surprisingly, within 3 -4 minutes that same 27100. was recredited into my account. another scenerio was a day after this transaction , which I recieved another 28 naira credit alert which I mistakenly sent to another Acount and also successful too. to confirm whether its a joke or not, I moved that same money from that Acount and it was moveable. and now its in another account.
I'm afraid since someone told me I purposely opened it for NYSC, that I could be traced. and I replied him that I didn't go into bank to steal, it was sent to me. another person said it might later be deducted from my allowance .
right now I'm freaking confuse on whether to spend the money or not.?
please guys ur advice will be of help.
