Just want to give you figures in Akwa Ibom State. Salary grade level 08/02 = #61900. Salary grade level 09/02= 70k. Now do your comparison with your federal government figures

This is not true.
09/2 is 65k

Hunchogee:
If this is true then am sure it will be resolve before payment commences ...but so the state civil workers were earning more than their federal government counterparts?

It's not true that the state workers earned more than federal workers. In fact the workers in Akwa ibom earn the least salary in the country except for medical doctors.
The salary difference between state workers and federal workers at the same level and step is above 20k, with the federal worker earning the bigger sum.

So all he gets for impersonation is just apology? Because he's a northerner? Nigeria is cursed.

Why create a problem when you the rules. Frustrating people for their pay because of a law isn’t a crime. Peace and wisdom should be involved in all we do. Landlord and tenant no Dey be friend, Na sense person Dey use.

If you think someone breaks the rules, there are procedures to get justice.
I don't do sentiment, that landlord was just lucky to have a tenant who doesn't know what the law says. You don't confiscate people's properties just because they owe you rent. It's not within your powers, no matter how right you think you are.

What is Your Worst Experience with a Tenant?

As there are terrible experiences with landlords there are also terrible experiences with tenants. Today i will like to share a worst experience with a tenant.

My dad happens to be a landlord so we have met alot of tenants.

There was a stubborn tenant that rented a 3 bedroom flat worth 300k. He told my dad he will pay 250k now when he has the remaining he will pay. That's when the notoreity started. The tenant refused to pay the 50k, despite my dad's constant reminder.

When his rent expires he said he will soon pay that he needs more time, that he wants to pay everything at once. The next time my dad ask him, he said he is in financial crises all this was while i was in school. When i came back for end of semester break i still heard that the man hasn't paid his rent. I began pressuring my dad to collect this rent, the tenant has spent over 5months without paying a dime. My dad said the man lost his uncle and went for burial recently. Thats when i realize he has been given excuse to my dad for a very long time.

After sometimes i told my dad not to allow the man stay one more month without paying. My dad threaten to bring the police and take him to court. The man blocked my dad number, then my dad called him with another number when he picked and discover it was my dad he claim he didnt see my dad's initial call that he was sick. The man then switched off his phone.

We decided to go to meet the man together with a lawyer but he was not around. I placed a 2month notice and that he must pay for the months he has stayed in the house. After a week the man called with a new number pleading that he should not be evicted. He asked for my dad's account number so that he will pay. The man send 50k only. My dad told him he just completed his last year rent and will have to pay for the current year. The man refused. After the two months my dad changed the door lock thereby preventing him from getting inside even though his stuffs are inside.

After a month, a woman from the Neighborhood told my dad that the man we evicted is still living in the house. He usually comes in late at around 11-12pm and goes out around 7am. The next day we arrived there few minutes past 6 but the man has already gone. We discover that he changed the lock to the house. We end up confiscating all his properties and emptied his room. Till today he is yet to be found.

I have others stories about other tenants but i will love to hear your story. Over to you.

What is your worst experience with a tenant?

I'm not in support of the tenant who couldn't pay his rent but get this straight : what you and your dad did was illegal and I'm sure the lawyer knew the truth but refused to inform you.
Was there any tenancy agreement?
You don't give 2 months eviction notice to a tenant who pays his rent yearly.
It's not the place of police to evict anyone from a property!
Thank your star the tenant was ignorant of so many things. Una for buy big market.
You mean you change my doors without my presence?
Better seek knowledge before taking certain actions. You may not just be lucky again.

What is virtual about this?

I'm saddened by the barrage of insult and disdain these children have for their parents.
Some even brag about beating up their father to the delight of others who liked his comments. This can only come from children who are from a dysfunctional home.
I had expected them to narrate specific experience where their parents advice yielded bad results. No. They couldn't!
You think you owe your parents nothing? That it's their right to take care of you and they shouldn't expect obedience in return?
There are old pilot, and there are bold pilot. But there are no bold old pilot.
You guys should enjoy your folly.

I work in government mda that is responsible for recruitment, discipline, promotion, appeals and petitions, confirmation and conversion etc.
Normally for you to be promoted as a civil servant, You must need pass your promotion examination. And government would vote huge amounts of money for the promotion excercise.
Committees are set up to handle the events, starting from the pre-exams seminar to the exams proper.
I was placed in venue and logistics committee and was asked to make a budget for the purchase of some items needed; which I did.
I submitted it to the committee head and he asked me to up the pieces. He explained that allowances should be made for any unforeseen price increment.
I did and the amount stood at well over 400k
Money was released to our committee and then the head called and handed me a little above 100k, to go do the purchase. This was grossly inadequate for the real items that needed to be bought. I politely decline and asked that another be sent.
That was the beginning of "war" between me and the head. He felt I should sign as if I was given over 400k when I didn't receive such.
Thank God government work is different from private.
He can't sack me but he posted me out of the department.

I arrived nysc camp Kano after a tortuous 2 day journey. Ungongo was where the camp was situated before it was moved to karaye.
Having been mobilsed 3years behind my mates made my going less exciting. Again my girl friend at the University was mobilsed a batch before me and was already serving in the state.
Disappointed when I realized she was living with another man, a banker, I made a vow not to have anything to do with any girl through out my stay.
My activities during camp were mainly focused on PlayStation and sports.
Then I was posted to a place called Gabasawa lga. We were 15 in number, 12 boys 3 females.
Out of the 3girls, only one was good looking.
The chances of having sex with a non corper in a village in Kano is almost zero. You are warned not to try it with the indigene.
And so I stayed for 10 months without sex. The only beautiful girl I would love never greeted me for once. She had started befriending one of the corpers that was a batch before us, immediately we arrived. And so when the guy passed out, we ignored her.
One day, I came back from watching Real Madrid v Barcelona match late. It was a weekend. I observed the whole lodge was empty. Guys had traveled to town for various reasons and this girl was left alone in the compound.
I entered my room and locked up. After some 5minutes, I had a knock and a voice. I opened and she rushed inside. I was confused. She told me she was inside her room alone and scared. She begged to spend the night in my room which I obliged.
Around 2am, we couldn't respect our boundaries. All the 10months I was starve of sex was let loose on her. She took it in stride. She gallant die. And when the morning came, she returned to her room.
Till we completed our service year, we kept it a secret.

Tobinrobin:
You obviously didn’t read what I said. Tossing the beret around is an offense. Check their service rule yourself. Their offense isn’t with dancing. It was the way the tossed the beret. Read and inform yourself.

There is only one public service rule in government and rules 030301, which the query is premised talk about misconduct.
Acts listed under misconduct doesn't include toasting the beret. It's clearly spelt out.
Instead of you to look it up, you want to stick with the false narrative you posited.
Continue.

Tobinrobin:
Yes it’s an offense & I’m not supporting the bosses. Just stating the fact.

Guy stop it.
Look for public service rule and check before you post.
It's even quoted in the write up as immoral act by the officers and you are talking about beret.
What was immoral about dance?

Tobinrobin:
Barret actually casted them. The barret is the most sacred property in any uniform organization, especially when it's crested.

- You cannot salute without it.
- You don't wear it anyhow.
- You don't eat, drink or misbehave with the barret on your Head.

That's not correct.
You may wish to look up the quoted psr rule it has nothing to do with beret or uniform.
The oga's are just funny.

One sided story.

Who owns carveton helicopters?
Who were the passengers and what was their mission in Rivers state?
What was their health status as regard Covid 19?
Rivers state is one of the states that keeps this nation afloat financially, yet the fg doesn't consider it fair to include her in it palliative programme; how pathetic!
Guns and ammunitions are in the exclusive list, does that make gun running a legitimate business?

Officialgarri:
I remember when Sanusi was sacked by Gej because he exposed about #50billion that wasn't remitted by NNPC from 2011-14 and also sudden withdrawal from NNPC account.
Then he was suddenly compensated with an Emirate even despite the tussle with his brother for the throne.

Ganduje has struck like Jonathan did, but it will only last a while.
Sanusi is a very intelligent man that he might soon be invited to head world bank!

But Ganduje has only till 2023 and his own persecution shall begin.

Was it 50b, 10b or 20b?
Because sanusi kept reeling out figures from the blues to malign and bring down the past government, just to make way for the one he thought would serve the interest of the north.
Today he's being accused of same allegation and you want us to believe he's innocent?
Let him clear himself of the allegation and not become emotional about it.
He maybe as corrupt as any politician of his class. Truth.

tsephanyah:
now who are we going to blame MTN or the fellow who decided to defraud people after he realizes the owner of the sim card.

At what point did he realize that his SIM was once owned by the president's daughter?
And you think a person who was out to defraud people as the president's daughter will demand for 5k?
Have people come out to confirm he demanded money from them?
You paid goons think everyone is an idiot, right?

Romangalactic:
It's not everytime the truth sets people free. I thought about this as well but there too may things at play.
I have always felt the treatment may not have positive results fast enough and will take many trials, so accepting responsibility for this child is a good way to save us the embarrassment of our families wondering why we have not had a child after marriage and it also ensures she won't be trying to get pregnant for the next three to four years, which gives me more time to sort myself out.

I know this is selfish of me,. thanks a lot for your suggestions.

So how many children are you prepared to father this way?
How do you guys cope with the fact that you are not true to each other?
What do you do if the real father surfaces in the future to lay claims?
Guy tell her the truth and damn what you think the society would say.
Yes you may never have a biological child but you can legally adopt one.
The lady will never stay on in the marriage, having known you can't father a child. She thinks her deception is not known, that is why she's still here.
You will be the loser in this game.
How do you even stand the image of another man riding your wife like a stallion? Doing all the styles you may not have the courage to try on her.?
She will always go back for more, In as much as she wants more children.

Except mdas like irs, cbn, nnpc, npa, efcc, military and paramilitary, every government employee on salary grade level 7 earn bw 42k to 52k, depending on your state.
From level 8 step 2 which is most likely the entry level for 1st degree holders, the pay ranges from 49k to 59k, depending on your state.
A level 12 officer in most states don't earn up-to a 100k.
Also, know that medical doctors, nurses, pharmacists and others in the health sector earn higher wages. A doctor at his entry level, SGL 12 earns more than a director SGL 17.

Keep deceiving yourself.
And when you think this is a case where the law enforcement officers should investigate to serve as a deterrent to others who may want to embark on this foolishness.

Hotspur 2-1 Chelsea
Fulltime
And I heard like a sound of a rushing water, tears flowing freely from Chelsea camp. And the angel of soccer in charge of defeat said, bnovative! Is there hope for Chelsea? Thou knoweth, I answered.
He said write: any man that wants to bet a team to win should not consider Chelsea!!
For their fall shall be great.

OGHENAOGIE:
at least u acknowledge Abu is cosmopolitan which is good from you... I quite agree process of admission and criteria should be made open for all to see... but some information are confidential and can be brought out if need be... which is why transcripts are not given to students by hand... back then in Unical I was fortunate to see d admission list and it was casted in merit catchment less educationally developed states format... my point still stands we need more schools... medicine is competitive esp for a schools like Abu unilag ui unn... initially many were responding with ethnic jibes not knowing d girl is from North Central.... my cousin applied to uniben chemical engineering later got chemistry he is from edo State... the lady got anatomy and she is young meaning she can always read medicine tomoro self...

Are you a malabite?
That's by the way.
The Op told so many lies in his write up and I feel the public deserve to know the truth.
As competitive as we think medicine is, facts results from jamb had shown little percent made above 300, and not all who made above 300 applied for mbbs.
Also, northern states present the least number of students for mbbs and most southerners who studied medicine didn't study in the core north. Reason? Insecurity.
How did I arrive at this?
Check the booklets of nysc that had all the corpers passing out in a batch, especially doctors and the institution they attended and tell me how many doctors did their mbbs up north. Collect as many booklets as possible, from friends, different batches and state ; then you will have a glue of my point.
I served in Kano state in 2006 and I know the north don't post the few medical officers of northern extraction, out of the north. But even at that, my batch had 15 medical officers and 1 was from the north.
There's no way this girl should be denied admission except on religious grounds. If not on merit, Niger state is among the elds, and could still made it on that ground.

unmask:
The girl scored 302 not 350

If we probably check the list of admitted students to that course they probably have 300 or more

300 or more from her state?
You really believe every state in Nigeria had their ward doing mbbs in Abu?
For me the proper thing to do is for ABU to publish the names of students who applied for mbbs, their state and scores. Anything less is a sham

Snowale:
Ofcourse, she chose the most competitive course and The most competitive Northern Nigeria university. If they can't admit more than 120 students, then 3 students per state is 36*3=118, apart from school of matric students, catchment area, ELDS, still she won't be admitted

You can only speculate, let ABU respond with the list of admitted students to mbbs with details of state of origin and scores.
How many northern states students study medicine in Nigeria in year? Jamb could be a guide here.

Bedwyr:
Anatomy is hardly a course for dull people.

It can be tough , and as tough as medicine.

Plus, many Anatomists train the future doctors too. Your Surgeon would have been nowhere without an anatomist teaching him or her were the bits and pieces are, the varations on the bits and pieces, and how they work.

Don't mock other courses.

I don't mock other courses as I didn't study medicine and surgery. The truth is that medicine compared to other causes, is considered better with great prospect and advantage.
1. It's not graded. A student comes last in his class, they still call him doctor.
2.A doctor is always employed at a higher grade level than an anatomist. In fact it takes anatomist 10years Of hard work to reach the entry point of a doctor in the civil service. Etc. I hope this explains my point

OGHENAOGIE:
you think Abu is so primitive that folks from 36 states won't apply... you guys are ethnic jingoist... d issue has been dealt with just continue to ask questions already answered... we need more schools to cater for people simple... kaduna alone has citizens from all 36 states... Abu is one of the top 5 prestigious university in Nigeria and d entire north... take a trip to Abu u would see Southerners who school there even in maiduguri southerners still go there how much more Abu...

I should ignore you because you are not the Op, but let me respond as follows :
I don't do sentiment in my analysis of issues. Any opinion you can't support with facts is a lie.
This op isn't the spokes person for ABU, and he rushed to spew this "There are some unique facts about ABU that we must appreciate which includes among so many others; ABU is the most cosmopolitan University in the whole of Africa not even Nigeria �� it’s no news that ABU Zr has students from each and every of the 774 local governments in �� which makes it a mini ��. lie." lie number 1.
Also transparent admission should be published for the public to see. Everything else is a shame. When a school is called out like the case of ABU, it should be their position to show how transparent they have been in carrying out the admission process. Is that too hard for u?
"

The Op can only post this because majority of people here can't ask objective questions.
1. The process of admission is the same in all federal university in Nigeria. The merit, catchment area and educational less developed state.
2. Out of the 120 students claimed to be admitted to mbbs in Abu, all states can't have their quota of 2 to 3 candidates applied to ABU. The reason is parents from non northern states will hardly allow their wards who want to study mbbs, apply to northern university because of insecurity. Can the Op publish the names, scores and state of origin so we can see the transparency?
3 is Niger state one of ABU's catchment area or elds?
4. You claimed she ranked 7th from her state, can you publish the name and scores from her state.
U advised a brilliant girl that was on her parthway to study mbbs, to enroll in anatomy, are you for real.
Answer these and we can continue from here.
Besides are you the spokes person for ABU? I doubt.

Ladycewhy:
Have you heard of the term "blood boil"?that is a rush and its called adrenaline and it can become consistent with pattern of behavior.


I strongly disagree, so let me rephrase your comment "any one can get angry but not everyone reacts violently".

Lets even the steps that led to the back hand slap.

The op went out, it was getting late, a responsible man who is not in the habit of staying out late will definitely inform his wife about the development, i am sure they both have phones, i am assuming he should have called to let his wife know he will be staying out that late ,atleast if it were me i am sure i will be worried sick about my husband and be checking in every 30mins cos i personally hate staying out late, too many dangers lurking in the dark. If this aspect was sorted i doubt she will be that upset ,infact na gist for follow .


Now he came home ,she was upset,yes i know it can be difficult to calm a situation like that down,but instead of addressing it he decided to ignore ,wishing it will go away, when he saw it didn't work out he decided to use physical assualt.


This is the pattern i am concern about,that op ignored and switched to physical assault, until he learns to stop ignoring issues and seek for solutions before he looses his temper this pattern will continue.

Your comment shows there are still sane people in Nigeria.
I've also observed from the majority of comments made by people that a lot of us grew up in a dysfunctional family, where hitting a woman is considered normal.
In fact, battaring a wife shows off the man as strong and disciplined. On the reverse side of things, these same men wouldn't stand a man maltreat their daughter, that's if they finally get married properly.
A generation of baby mamas and baby daddies.

Did you hangout with married friends till 2am?
I doubt.
Majority of the posts hailing you here are singles who had their warped and bias views about women.
I've been married for almost a decade now and I can say you were wrong.
Did you call her while you were with friends, to inform that you may likely get home late? You thought it wasn't necessary?
With a 7 month old baby, you don't think leaving her alone for friends could hurt? And immediately you said sorry, she should be very grateful and happy? Is she a robot to have her angst reverse immediately you said sorry?
Go and bring your wife back and apologize to your in-laws

Do you have evidence of payment made to him?
Also record your phone conversation and have them handy. Ensure the conversation is such that could show he's collected the said amount from you.
Approach the efcc to complain about the fraud/scam.
Be prepared for a long legal tussle.
Good luck.
Next time ensure due diligence.

harmbhrosz:
read na ehn! He said he has carried out test 4 times

One can run a test in Nigeria without involving a specialist or hospital.
Don't assume it was the doctor that prescribed those test.
What was the name of the test? I bet he would gladly have mentioned in his post.
Advice him to visit the teaching hospital.

Go to the hospital and stop self medication.
It baffles me when people refuse to seek medicare in the hospital but when the sickness becomes worse, they ended up being carried to the same hospital they ignored.

I knew the border closure was done to favour Dangote. The moment he complained that the borders down South were affecting his businesses adversely, the borders down south were immediately shut. Whereas the borders up north remained porous and opened.
This same man gets import waivers and all sort of support from government that confers on him undue advantage over others.
