wealthyprince: Newly employed 13,000 teachers in Rivers State will commence training August 5 at designated centres across the state. The 13,000, comprising both indigenous and non-indigenous applicants, were selected outof about 60,000 who went through written and oral examinations run by consultants. While the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, conducted the written examination, global recruitment outfit, PricewaterhouseCoopers conducted the written stage of the recruitment exercise andcomputed the candidates’ assessment and final recommendation to the Rivers State Ministry of Education. Another consultancy firm searched the candidates’ academic and other pleaded credentials with relevant examination bodies.
Speaking to The Neighbourhood reporter on Friday in Port Harcourt, Dr. Richard Ofuru, the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Education said the training will be de-centralised but will run simultaneously. “The training of the new 13,000 teachers will commence August 5,” the Perm Sec stated, adding that letters of postings would be issued to the teachers in the course of the training.
The Neighbourhood gathered that not all whose names got shortlisted turned up at the State Universal Basic Education Board, SUBEB, and the Senior Secondary Schools Board, RSSSB, during the deadline for the submission of academic credentials conducted at the respective Boards. An unofficial source disclosed that replacements were being recruited by the consultants.
The new teachers are expected to be at their places of posting soon as schools re-open after the long holidays in September.

ba7man: If i hear "Fresh Air"!!!!......Nigerians and investors in general have gotten smarter, they've embraced the spirit of entepreneurship and are focused on delivering goods and services to the teeming population...........Some are trying to atribute it to G.E.J.

As long as we keep fumbling with the 2600MW of electricity, those ancient trains and the snail paced reconstruction of the economic corridor of Nigeria, his efforts remain.....#Fresh pubic hair#.

preshuzpearl: 5,000 divorcees??

ITbomb: The Bible says "And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach." (Isaiah 4:1).
.
That day is here , it is call that phrase Mukina loves to hear

oneliegeria: Senator Yerima (and other Zamfara politicians) should take more wives from these women and find 13 year almajiri boys to marry these jobless..... pardon me, wedless women instead of importing under-aged brides from North Africa.

Raxxye: I started the business early this year. It's lucrative, but it's challenging and labour-intensive.

Using a charcoal/stove iron isn't a good idea because the temperature cannot be regulated, and this is important since different fabrics require different amount of heat!
I use a SUMEC 3000 generator as a back-up, which I bought for 40,000. I use a washing machine too. The gen can carry both machine and a single iron at the same time. Lest I forget,I'm in Port Harcourt.

Raxxye: How would u determine whether people in an area are lazy or not?
Truth is: people will always need laundry services. It isn't a function of where they live!

kshowhanif: so i thought before. I open a small interior decoration shop where i sell curtains& other accesories two years ago, within this period of two years i only have small amount of goods there, though i am a student.
But since i join niaraland, before ASUU strike. I read alot of financial tips, for only the period of 3month that ASUU went for strike, i employ the technique, and now am having goods worth 8 hundred thousand naira. So my advice is that, if you read such important tips. Dont throw them away , they may be applicable either directly or indirectly.

The amount spent on the importation of those materials notwithstanding, the country recorded

a [size=13pt]favourable

---

[/size] balance of trade,

with export volume exceeding import volume, as the total value of external merchandise trade amounted to N5,341.1 billion in the second quarter 2013, an increase of N242.3 billion or 4.8 per cent from N5,098.9 billion recorded in the previous quarter.

A document on Q2 trade statistics released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) in Abuja, at the weekend, showed that the change resulted from an increase in the value of exports from N3,452.1 billion in the first quarter of 2013 to N3,742.9 billion in the second quarter (an increase of 90.8 billion or 8.4 per cent) and a 2.9 per cent decline in the value of imports from N1,646.7 billion in the first quarter of 2013 to N1,598.2 billion in the second quarter.

Furthermore, NBS said the increase in exports and decrease in imports resulted in a favourable trade balance of N2,144.7 billion in the second quarter, an increase of1 N339.3 billion or 18.8 per cent from levels recorded in the first quarter of 2013.

sleekysol: It is really sad this dude lost his job. The truth is the only blame he had was following protocol too much without being insightful. So much policies but human wisdom is also required to work in a bank. I pray the guy moves on and get grow from this lesson. Harsh it is but then it always a tight rope to walk.... Banking sector

Yeah, Jonathan is spectacular!

Cretins!

vivavik: Weather ibori, tinubu or Alamiesigha, all nigerian politicians are the same. IMO, APC or PDP they all have the same mandate, 2 steal our monies and enrich thr families 4 life. Send thr kids abroad but can't pay lecturers, the money reach 2 pay ASUU wetin thm deh ask, tht's what 3-4 nigerians stole. The God of fire and brimstone will expose them all in due time.

claremont: UBA is not the only bank in Nigeria. If a customer is having a problem with the services been provided at UBA, then you can simply open an account in another bank. The way this issue was handled by the customer in question shows a high level of vindictiveness and witch-hunting.

The fact of the matter is that sacking the alleged staff is not going to automatically improve services in the bank. On the contrary, it may actually reveal the draconian management style which the bank uses to manage its employees. The behaviour of the employee is a reflection of the behaviour of his management.

Someone has just lost their job thereby rendering an entire family hungry, and the whole of Nairaland are high-fiving themselves for a job well done. We lack empathy in Nigeria abeg!

asha 80: demdem and horus that is the lagos ibadan expressway....i saw them on my way to ijebu ode last week...no need to doubt it.

2 Kings 7

Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the Lord; Thus saith the Lord, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria. 2 Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the Lord would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

3 And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die? 4 If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die. 5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there. 6 For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us. 7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life. 8 And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it. 9 Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household. 10 So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they were. 11 And he called the porters; and they told it to the king's house within.

12 And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city. 13 And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left [2] in it: behold, I say, they are even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed and let us send and see. 14 They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see. 15 And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king. 16 And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord. 17 And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him. 18 And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria: 19 And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the Lord should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof. 20 And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.

ukcars: There is nothing interesting in someone being sacked

RICHIE BOI: The Trade Union Congress (TUC) and the National Labour Congress (NLC) have directed their members nationwide to prepare for a protest against the Senate’s decision to transfer the national minimum wage from the executive list of the constitution to the concurrent list.

In a release signed by the TUC president Comrade Bobboi Bala Kaigama and the secretary-general Comrade (Barr.) Musa Lawal, the union informed that the protest would begin on September 17.

According to the TUC, the removal of the national minimum wage from the executive list would prevent workers from earning as much as they should.

The union said further in the press release that the Senate’s move was influenced by the state governors, and they enjoined Nigerians to support the union in resisting the Senate.

“We will never allow this,” the TUC press release partly read, “because even if the states legislate for state workers (concurrent), who legislates for the private sector? This is why we must mobilise to kick against the Senate’s position.”

Demdem: Nothing in those pictures suggests to me that its the road in question. Is this one of the numerous lies of Jonathan?

mascot87:

Foools,why must it be only Fashola out of the other 36 states in Nigeria?Your hatred for Fashola will kill you one day. idiotas.Good one GEJ,Your transformation agenda is second to non

Sincere 9gerian: GEJ has his shortcomings but he is by far the best president/head of state of this great country since Independence. His sincerity and humility are infectious.

All that is needed now for far greater development is for Nigerians to SUPPORT their president. All over the world, after elections, people unite, irrespective of political party differences, for DEVELOPMENT of their country. Why should that of Nigeria be different? Why should APC and certain elements of the country be sabotaging this president, and by extension Nigeria, from all angles- Boko Haram, pipeline vandalism, pull-him-down syndrome, media propaganda,etc?

Lets unite and DEVELOP our country. GEJ will only be president for a while.

ayobase: The state of California's minimum wage of $10 (N1,500) per hour to start by 2016. It seems it is about $8 (N1,200)at the moment.

A US citizen that works 10 hrs daily for 20 days gets approximately N300,000 ($2,000) per month!

Nigeria's is N18,500 ($123) per month. Meaning N92 ($0.6) per hour pay.


Why won't people wanna run go greener pasture.

#Im just saying ni o#

The 2,000 folks who serve on California's city councils -- fielding complaints about pot holes, and about how that new development will destroy the neighborhood's character, etc. etc. -- received more than $38.9 million in compensation for their troubles last year, according to figures from the state controller's office.

That's an average of nearly $20,000 per council member, including what the city pays toward their retirement, deferred compensation and the perk that's often more pricey than the council stipend itself -- health insurance.

That $20,000 figure does not include what councilmembers are paid for representing their cities on other boards -- such as the transportation or fire authority or vector control district boards. Those extra boards pay per-meeting, which can mean many thousands of extra dollars in the pockets of councilmembers who serve on them.

In Orange County, the most well-compensated city council folk were in Irvine, Tustin, Laguna Hills, Anaheim, Santa Ana, Buena Park and Huntington Beach. But we'll get to that in a minute.

STATEWIDE

The big-city mayors hauled in the most in 2009, with San Francisco's mayor topping the list at $283,702, followed by Oakland's mayor at $220,543, and Los Angeles's mayor at $218,342.

The best-paid city councilmembers, not surprisingly, are also in the state's biggest cities, where politics is a full-time game. In LA, councilmember comp ranged from $191,800 to $179,417; in San Diego, it ranged from $100,706 to $79,429; and in Oakland, it ranged from $93,402 to $80,894.

emmatok: Pastor minimum wages are for unskilled-semiskilled workers.e.g cleaners,gateman,messengers e.t.c.
Taste might not be the priority here.

But they can live better than some Graduate Nigerians earning 15000 per month.
