Monimatic: Cam u imagine they are already confused
Tinubu scored a political own goal with his choice of a Boko Haram apologist He can no longer get block Vote in the south west, cos from today campaign against Muslim Muslim ticket Begins across all churches from south west to south South to south east down to the North. Nobody will be bold enough to come and campaign for Tinubu(APC) Muslim Muslim ticket in any church or christian gathering in the south west, he/she will be Stoned on the pulpit, booed and chased away
They should just go ahead and do it and face the electoral consequences.
⭕️Tinubu's national political ambitions have been doomed by his being a southern Muslim. This was what cost him the vice presidential position that paved way for Osinbajo to harvest what he didn't sow, and will still cost him his presidential ambition.▪️▫️◽️◾️�
monkmike: That was me 4 years ago – after landing my first major job in Germany. And in no time I was travelling around Europe..... until the next opportunity came.... and then next, and the next....
I look fresh there, it was about a year after my postgraduate studies (M.Sc. Infection Biology, University of Lübeck). When I received the invite to the interview, I was super excited; positive, enthusiastic, confident……… and all optimistic feelings you can think about. I have had interviews before then, but they were all virtual, this was going to be the first physical interview.
You must have heard/read that you can work in Germany without the German language; that's true, so read on.
The job post was in English; Company’s website: in English; no option to even change it to German or other languages. My job application was sent in English; First feedback to the application sent in English; Invitation to interview was sent by the company in English! Wow! What more could I ask for? Although I could speak some German then, but having a job interview in English was way much better for me.
I could not ask for more – on top of the above, the offer was in Munich – one of the highest paying cities in Germany. Even if you will probably spend most of it on house rent and perhaps groceries, Munich is a beautiful city to leave in, so it’d all be good anyway.
I was so sure of getting the job and was already making accommodation plans. I prepared in the best ways possible – at least, I thought and rehearsed my speeches and possible answers to potential questions a million times. Since the interview would be in English (logically it should), I was confident in myself – actually, I was overconfident.
Anyways, just in case I had to talk to someone at the reception, I pocketed precisely enough German to get me across to the interview room (I thought to myself… lol ?). Well, things started changing slowly when I arrived a bit too early – 20 minutes before the time and was informed (by one of the interviewers, in German), to go and hang around for a while and come back just shortly before the interview time: Welcome to Germany – the land of precision! Being late is not accepted, coming too early praised is neither accepted.
I came back right in time as was asked to. To show good manners, I exchanged greetings with the interviewers (two of them) in German, hoping that’d be it (my pocketed German was already running out!!??). The first interviewer proceeded to introduce himself, and then the second, and then I did – all in German. And I thought to myself, ‘when will the real interview begin?’
The real interview continued as the first person started describing the company. I had to interrupt, to ask if the language of the interview is German: ‘Oh yes, it is. Didn’t you know that?’ He asked. I was like, ‘no! I did not expect it at all………’ I explained how every step so far in the application process was in English until now. The first tension in the meeting ensued – I was caught off guard and I started sweating in my nice suit! Lol, ? I laugh about it today, but not then.
To cut a long story short, we had some arguments on which language to interview in. Of course, they understood my points but wouldn’t accept it since it is a German company and most of the colleagues in the laboratory are native German speakers – there was hardly a chance that I would work in English. I should have thought about that earlier. In the end, we had a compromise – the interview was conducted in Denglisch! Heard that before?
That experience taught me that, you could never be over-prepared for anything. When you are taken by surprise and feel disappointed, let it be a lesson that’d propel you to the next level. I learned my lessons that day and sent all subsequent applications in German ONLY – thanks to the good friends that supported me then. If the communication turned out to be in English, that’s several pluses for me!
Amongst other things to learn, I sure did learn the following:
Be open to changes and if one way does not work, try another You could never be too prepared – look deeper than the logical procedures Prepare for the worst. If things go all Gucci, then you can call it luck! Join an active study abroad community, ask questions and make meaningful contributions. Keep expanding your network of professional friends, especially those abroad; you need them for their experience.
What experience have you had attending job interviews abroad?
Or do you have questions on how to prepare for a job interview abroad?
Share your thoughts/questions.
remain bless sir..and good luck to future opportunities
After seeing his picture, I knew there is no way he is a minor.
Can he be sent back to Nigeria after the case?
Sadly irrespective of his age,he will claim assylum..for possible political persecution.. FFK's article a few weeks ago is enough evidence that the political class "will be waiting for that stupid boy to enter Naija" So assylum is sure for him
DamnnNiggarr: My Bossom childhood friend was financially down and needed financial assistance because his landlord was suffocating him with his constant nagging. So he contacted me as his old guy and and told me the situation on ground and requested for financial assistance from me. I didn't hesitate in sending him the money which he summed up with the one he had and cleared his house rent.
So, this afternoon, his wife texted me, and in her text, she thanked me for the assistance and requested to pay me a visit and and help me with some of my chores since my wife is in Bayelsa. From the very moment I set my eyes on that text, I haven't been myself knowing fully well that one thing may lead to another during her visit/stay.
That my guy is so dear to me and we treat each other with utmost respect so for this reason, I wouldn't like to loose that respect and trust. This woman is anticipating my response, according to her.
Please house, how do I discourage her from visiting me in my wife's absence without it looking as if I'm avoiding her? What does she want? Who has been in this type of situation and how did you resolve the issue without creating enmity?
It's simple ,tell her to come over with her husband and children.. That u are longing to host them
Officialgarri: Some of us are campaigning for Peter Obi in public and all social media platform but deep down, we know our candidate is Tinubu.
We are not doing this because we are scared of openly supporting Tinubu, afterall, what do we core Buhari supporters have to fear after sticking with Baba for 8 years and we didn't die.
What we are doing isn't betrayal of Obi, we are simply playing PlayStation 2 game. We are giving our opponent one goal ahead when we are sure we will still win.
We will give Obi all the support he needs but he won't even come second
Giving PO handicap 2 to lose... Meaning 1X2 odd will be like BAT 1.09 vs PO 17.25 guy u wicked ooo
Chijeep: I really felt sorry for it but I can't touch it because I'm scared of it claws and probably it's also a wild bird. Nobody dared go near because all of us are afraid of it. Everybody was just snapping it from afar... lol Some said it doesn't see in the day time and I think they're right as it closed it eyes and never opened till someone threw small stone at it and it ran into that corner behind.
Idiotseverywher: . But the guy agreed to donate his own, was he forced to. I'd he tgr first person to ever agreed to do do? Why atr you people being so sentiment, pray that God never punish human beings because of our behavior and wickedness

Built2last: Too much fake research for an opposition. Admit that the attention the guy is getting is making all you Tinubu supporters loose sleep.
I pledge to support Tinubu if you can share a video or resent article where your master Tinubu has outlined what he will do for Nigeria apart from it's my turn. I made Buhari president. Oh i forgot, i have a video where he has bagged beans to distribute already.
set yourself free from religious and ethnic slavery. Come clean, the reason you are not supporting Obi is because he is a christian and Igbo
He has told us what he will do. Can your oga at the top speak so we can check which plan serves us right in the interest of Nigeria.
I am from Cross River state. I voted OBJ in 1999 and 2003. Okadigbo and Buhari contested in 2003. I chose OBJ because he was better than Buhari/Okadigbo. 2007 i voted Yaradua/Good luck. There were Igbo and Yoruba contesters. 2015 I voted GEJ. 2023 i am voting Peter Obi. can you see i have gone round Nigeria in the interest of Nigeria but you lots see Nigeria through the eye of religion or tribe before chosing who to vote
I wont reply you again. If Tinubu wins and sells Nigeria rewarding political allies. Its not my problem I visit Nigeria twice every year to supervise my little company in Abuja. My second passport will take me to 180 countries of the world with no visa required. you see i am not the one to suffer neither will my children. God bless
Will you have the decency
He doesn't need to give his opposition something to run amok with on social media. Obviously his policies will run contrary to the current administration's. Put yourself in the shoe of his advisers- will you advise him to condemn PMB's economic policies? That will amount to "Outshining the master" If he does that,I bet Atiku would have won by 3pm on election day- that PMB will assure using powers at his disposal
Funflipper: And you think that child that was smuggled into the UK for slavery would have gotten a penny?
Do u think uk is seme border where u smuggle rice and groundnut oil? The donor/ his family must have been well compensated.... Possibly received 50%...bf traveling...if d organ doesn't match..it means the balance is forfeited..so shit will likely hit the fan
Golan007: No i havent, and there's a reason why societies ensure this is curtailed.
I know you are supporting him because he's igbo.
Bros u got it wrong am not Igbo...am from d s/w... I just believe we should view issues from divers prism before passing judgement irrespective of the victim is Rich,poor,influencial or not
OgaTheTop2: He should have done it the right way and follow due processes.. Pity
Due process imply he gets her on a waiting list...based in first come first served...citizen first!! A situation one's money can hardly speed up things for u
OgaTheTop2: What is sad about this? Wait until you have your organ harvested.
A whole Nigerian Senator getting involved in such venture....I mean, is this senator lacking wealth
Good riddance to rubbish
No, it can happen to anyone depending on how despirate d situation is. From report,his daughter was severely ill and needed a transplant...getting a donor especially one that matches with his daughter is like looking for a needle in a haystack.... The test of how Noble a man can be, is when he faces a situation father Abraham faced, possible loss of a loved one when u have an option to compromise... I bet most pple condemning this man would do worse when faced with similar circumstance.. I pray d daughter recovers speedily
For his resilience, indomitability, astuteness, integrity and for demonstrating uncommon entrepreneurial sagacity exemplified in the ability to hunt for the best talents, quality job delivery and for representing the business ideals Ndi Igbo stands for as well as his humanity, humility, accessibility and dignity which has earned him the highly coveted Eminent Magazine Man of the Decade, Chief Kenneth Ejiofor Ifekudu is ANAMBRA PERSON OF THE WEEK.
“High achievers are big-picture people. They are able to look into that crystal ball and see things (the goal) that are not there; with the end in mind, they work towards that end one step at a time”- Anonymous.
Chief Kenneth Ejiofor Ifekudu (Agbalanze Ezeonyekachukwu), was born on 6th of April 1979 into the family of late Chief & Lolo Paul A. Ifekudu (Ezeonykachukwu) of Ozubulu in Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State.
His father was an accountant while his mother was a headmistress so he grew up knowing the value of education; as well as the need for discipline. To him, his father’s disciplinary actions resulted to the man he is today and that is why he continues to idealize and idolize him.
He attended Patrick Okolo Primary School, Odoakpu, Onitsha and proceeded to Our Lady’s Secondary School where he obtained his SSCE in 1996. He attended Federal Polytechnic Auchi and bagged OND in Business Administration graduating top of his class in 1999. To satisfy his unquenchable appetite for education, he proceeded to Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, in 2003 where again he proved his mettle as an excellent student coming out with Second class upper degree in Marketing. Not spent, he moved on and acquired Master’s degree in Business Administration at Enugu State Business School. According to him, the two disciplines rubbed off on the businessman he is today, affirming that studying them remained the best thing that has happened to his career.
A determined man is unstoppable, even though Agbalanze’s childhood dream was to study Law but was redirected to study Business Administration by his father, he never jettisoned that dream and today, despite his busy schedule, he is currently studying Law at Baze University, Abuja to fulfill that age-long ambition of wanting to be one of the best lawyers in this part of the world.
Agbalanze founded Diamond Leeds Limited, an A-list construction company and other top rated companies. The Diamond Leeds is a reference point in construction of buildings, roads, bridges, and sinking of boreholes, etc. The idea of Diamond Leeds was birthed during his brief stint in the banking profession, taking a cue from his clients who are contractors; he developed passion and joined the business. His marketing skills gave him an advantage and positioned him well in the industry which is highly competitive and capital intensive. Today, he is a champion in the industry where many have already given up.
Chief Kenneth Ifekudu is equally a philanthropist of note and has used God’s given resources to advance the course of humanity. He believes in Timothy Pina’s opinion that Philanthropy is not about money; it’s about feeling the pain of others and caring enough about their needs to help.
Agbalanze is a man ahead of his time; his achievements will make you think he has been around for ages. His exploits in business, character, the excellence he represents, his groveling humility and the depth of his humanity are few of the reasons for this deservedly MAN OF THE DECADE AWARD by Eminent Magazine.
He is happily married to Lolo Chioma Emmanuella Ifekudu with whom he has 4 wonderful Children, 2 boys and 2 girls.
When I saw that he came from Ozobulu....what came to my mind was the massacre of worshippers in a church a few years back due to drug deals...and nothing happened .I stopped reading
Will I fault Peter Obi for the investment on behalf of Anambra state Govt and it's people? NO What went wrong? The business climate! The prime brand then was Hero lager beer- great lager but with limited reach Nationwide.. It's popular in d Eastern part,but its supply was and is still limited here in the SW? After Obi's tenure, Gov Obiano should HV taken stock of the state's equity and cashed out...when the investment is at its profitable end the way Lagos State govt cashed out of Econet back in d days.. The investment can still be recouped in multiple fold...we need a business oriented leader that encourage Private sector participants like OBJ... PMB isnt encouraging the private sector At all
Oga Wike dey fear to face EFCC after his 8year in in office elapse... Little wonder Baba is spending all he could to get on d ballot for another prosecution "immune" office like president or VP... If only he can appear on the ballot paper even if his party lost, any attack from efcc or icpc will be termed WITCH HUNT by the ruling party
Beremx: Reverend Father Fabian Obi is the elder brother of Peter Obi. What a striking resemblance!
This post is unnecessary.. not at this time when Clergymen are target for kidnapping..You just used ur likeness/ fondness for Peter Obi to put his brother in harm's way. By this post,if only 10people know he has a clergyman as a brother,now 100 knows! Discuss PO ,he can take care of himself security-wise, leave his family and friends out of his politics..
Bomboiy: While Tinubu is going to meet one politician or the other,Obi making moves to learn what it takes to develop a country. Tomorrow some Nigerians will vote Tinubu ahead of Obi,suffer no dey tire una? we must vote the better man not the better politician.
I clearly understand travelling is an integral part of education..what PO is embarking on today is what Asiwaju had done decades ago... That tweet by PO puts him across to me as not being a Reader.... And clearly Bad readers barely make good Leaders..Just thinking..
YoudeyVexme: truth be told, I'm not impressed. I can't hide it my people. we played a team that enugu rangers can defeat hands down.
This is not to discredit our eagles, the fact that we couldn't defeat Ghana to secure the ticket to world cup just few months ago says it all and today we wining 10 0 for afcon qualifers?.
what a pathetic joke.
I'm so angry right now, the more the goals were coming the more my angrier grew. the super eagles just showed other african countries their weak spot.
They showed other african countries they can't stand an average team talkless of a stronger opponent.
I Know I share same thought with lot of nigeria's out here.
so what do you think are you impressed or not?
click like if your not, click share if you are lalasticlala seun
So they should win 91-2 like those banned south african clubs for them to impress you?
nony43: Make una update me, did they later arrested the killers of this man Bola Ige, Or the usual happened to the investigation?
The prime suspect then was Iyiola omisore- though not proven till date was the then deputy governor of osun state.. A week prior to his murder ,Iyiola's thugs nearly beatup the elder stateman at d oni of Ife palace..he escaped by a whisker.. Funnily today ,Iyiola is currently the National secretary of APC
Olasyke: He's a white man, they won't persecute him. Welcome to the zoo. Not even peter obi can save the zoo from being the zoo. It's gone, irredeemable.
You are calling a Lebanese a white man Am sure Lebanese won't accept that as a compliment... About being left off d hook.....guess u are still part of people who believe anything goes.. The Danish guy that killed his wife and kid is still in Kirikiri max prison.. Pray u DNT get on the wrong side of Nigerian law...it isn't easy to get out ...u stand a fair chance if it's money related...guess thats why politicians get away with corruption.. But cases such as murder, manslaughter,Armed robbery..isn't easy to escape from in Nigeria once u are caught
