Sorry to interrupt, but its not abt having facts, its about proving the the facts. U can ask anyone that is in d system, they will tell u. U know dey collected via shady means bh can u prove it? Dats d problem. Your allegations are baseless.. m also a hopeful like u, did d test n interview.. may Allah c us tru

The reason why i don’t reply sometimes is that some comments that are so lacking in knowledge.

But I want to believe you are open minded and this will not turn to another unnecessary argument. Its not a bad thing not to know but in not wanting to learn lays the problem with most men.

I didn’t study law and I am sure you didn’t too but I have watched enough “How to get away with murder” and co. First check definition of the word “witness” in law. A witness can provide two forms of evidence “direct” and “circumstantial” evidence.

In this case this is a circumstantial evidence, does he know these people? Yes. Can he identify them? Yes. Can we get evidence supporting the fact they didn’t even register? Yes etc.

Mind you countless murder suspects have been convicted on circumstantial evidence that carry less weight than what elbangeez stated here. Please don’t say “this is Nigeria”, an average lawyer can pull this off even in Nigeria.

Broaden your horizon. Learning is fun.

Disclaimer: I have no political affiliations and no interest in assassinating anybody’s character. I sincerely apologize if I caused you any trouble, or I am causing you any trouble and in advance for the troubles I would bring your way. We would do whatever is necessary as permissible by the Law to further this cause; All we want are the APLs for merit candidates, so we can mark the end of this journey.

For all who care to know, Final draft of the Open Letter is ready. Costing is next and it’ll be posted here for all who care enough to contribute.

When all is ready the Letter itself would be posted here.

A big “Thank you” to all who have supported the struggle.

Make your decisions personal. Not everyone is in support of your intended action, we all have our respective reasons. Whatever you want to do do it in your name, don't drag us into your thing. Respect our rights to choose.

When you say “us” you really have to be more specific cuz its definitely not part of the “common man” team that doesn’t even have enough connect to check their name.

You, Xtruzz, peepydelano et al are all playing for the same team and that team has no concern for the common man. If you did APLs for merit candidates would have been out instead after your spots are guaranteed, you stand guard here doing nothing; discouraging others from action while it is being steady dished to the rich and powerful.

Is it your destiny to work at Dpr? Stop fighting for what may not be for you. God may have something better in store for you. Relax. We all have our stories.

If you read what you write you’d see how laughable it is. Nay its God that put me on this path. If you really would like to know my destiny, end this process; release the APLs for merit candidates. Lets us all find out our destinies.

I know how stressful all this has been for you all, I too was filled with high hopes and unwavering faith in Mr. Shakur when I attended my interview at Virginrose Resorts. Until information started getting out, even this month some people have collected APLs. It is clear that its only by taking action can merit candidates get even the few slot allocated to them. Only God knows what is left of the APLs for the Merit candidates, more time risks the inevitable. I pray that our destinies will not be stolen.

When Xtruzz was making sentimental speeches trying to use emotions to subject us to inaction, instead of actually getting things done. I laughed. I am currently unemployed, I’m an orphan I have been for 25 years out of the life I have lived; What do you know about our lives. We all just want is to see an end to this journey, so we can all go our separate ways and don’t say we are impatient; its long overdue. I really hate to cause any trouble for Mr. President, but if it has to get to that so be it.

I am in support of a publication, but not one that calls the entire process a sham.

I think it is likely that some folks who did very well deserved and got the job. I think it is also likely that the last stage of the recruitment was marred by irregularities. So much evidence points to the fact that many were robbed, not all, but many.

If monetary contributions are needed for the publication, Im ready to play my part. But the wording has to be clear. It is not too much to demand that the process be transparent. An investigate journalism paper like Premium Times (@PremiumTimesng), will go along way to getting the truth about this recruitment. Right now the truth would even taste sweeter that getting this job.

Duly noted.

Thank you. We appreciate all the help we can get. Once the letter and all arrangements are ready, I’ll post it here for all to see with allowance of ample spare time for inputs before publication.

D message here is not very clear. If u say 'report' dat sounds like dey av accepted d APL btw d 3 months grace period (July 1st - 30th September) but yet to report at dia duty post. For this category, marvel made it clear dat dpr will replace them and it will form part of d new batch. But if what u mean by report is dat dey re yet to pick up their APLs, dey will still be replaced. There is nothing like time extension except if dey re candidate of very powerful person.

I would advise you not to crack your head too much on his post, because its going to be the Proverbial “the more you look the less you see” grin

Don’t be deceived by the fact its BrockSamson you see doing most of the talking. There are very silent people that have made up their mind. When exactly would the merit list be released and this wonderful journey brought to its end because the sooner the better. There is not a lot of time.

I thought you said APLs has stopped flowing to Stakeholders candidates.

The kind of information you have divulged through your posts are “so comforting”. The truth is like air, you can’t imprison it.

To defend a lie you need more lies, but nobody has a good enough memory to be a perfect lair. Till December 31, our wait would have still continued while they continue dashing out APLs but thank God October will surely be a month to remember.

Excuses Excuses Excuses!

The world has suffered alot not because of the violence of bad people but because of the silence of good people. All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.

It’s very glaring how connected these people are, their slots are already guaranteed. Remember the first set of stakeholders candidates? Just look at the level of energy they are using to speak ill of a publication which is just meant to tell the story of this recruitment. Why this energy, if you don’t have something to hide.

Instead of them to use their energy and connections to advocate for the release of the APLs of their fellow candidates with brilliant minds and end this torturous journey. They rather pile unto them a load of fears; what if it is cancelled, what if the current management is ousted and the new management doesn’t do blah blah blah....This recruitment can span from now till infinite, it is of no concern to them because it serves their purpose.

Their interest is what they are currently actively protecting with high energy. They hound this trend using multiples of posts to deceive the feeble minded. They would be here soon.

Anybody willing to contribute to the publication would have a chance soon. Those that are for us outnumber those against us.

Proverbs 10:15 - The wealth of the rich is their fortress; the poverty of the poor is their destruction.

Benson Commentary - The destruction of the poor — The cause of their destruction; is their poverty — Which often renders them friendless, defenceless, and exposed to the injuries of the malicious and cruel. Or, as מחתתmay be rendered, it is their terror, or consternation. It deprives them of courage and confidence, sinks their spirits, and fills them with fear and despair.

Shake off shackles of Fear, Deceit, Procrastination. Strive to rise above, never let lack of finance be the hindrance to your destiny.

My people fellow hopefuls, let's not allow these selfish fellows with multiple account in Naira land to destroy our effort. Let's join hand to pray against them while we observe their publications. If they are called, you won't see them again. They have writen the articles and have as well distributed it among themselves for editing. Let's use God against them while they use their resources they don't have against us.

Amen!

But if it is for no selfish gain but to see the end of the process which some greedy men and their children have hijacked, Lord of host fight for us.

Identify everyone here that is not of us but posing to be of us commoners, in other to further their interest. Let your terrible Hand find them, bend your bow and shoot them down suddenly [Psalm 64:7]. This we ask in the name of your Holy Son Jesus Christ. Amen.

Then let the APC government do the needful. If Mr. President who is also the minister of petroleum resources allowed this daylight robbery of a common man who queue up, voted and protected and make sure his vote counted for Buhari, then why under his watch will he allow this nepotism, corruption and gross subvertion of merits for stake holders and I question the integrity of both Mr. President and Mr. Shakur.

Please fellow colleagues, now is the time to act.

God bless you.

We have begun the race against time. I’m not sure if some people read what they type, because it puts a big question mark on where their loyalty lies. How can we be talking about consequences, before now has the common man benefited in any way.

Some said this publication would be ignored, I laugh. If I don’t know anything about Mr President, I know he can be quite pragmatic. Nothing he hates more than someone causing him more problem than necessary. Especially in this “harmattan” political atmosphere he is experiencing no telling the number of “his trees” this spark would burn down.

I’m just wondering why we allowed ourselves to be handicapped to not doing anything till now. Allowing ourselves to be insulted by DPR’s audacity to issue numerous APLs to stakeholders while leaving us in limbo.

Only God knows the number of slots that are presently available for the common man after stakeholders have taken the lion share. Imagine a handful of people holding tens of thousands of us ransom because we have no political connections nor an influential sponsor.

We are tired and we are not asking for too much; end this recruitment now.

dont even waste your time with publication because dpr management has already played all of us by releasing the first batch. the highest thing they will do is to issue a statement telling the public to disregard any rumour of second list as the recruitent is over. a senator called dpr on behalf of my friend but he was told they have concluded the recruitment because they dont want to entertain his plea, he later went to another top govt official who called dpr on his behalf and they told him to forward the guy's details. just chill untill Dpr decide to close the recruitment portal or issue a public statement telling the world they have officially concluded the 2016 recruitment. this present administration fvcked up big time, because they are too greedy to hijack all the slots without leaving some for the common man. if you are a merit candidate like me just move on with your life because good things awaits us somewhere else. DPR may still call some merit candidates but the chances are very slim and thats the bitter truth. DPR has never had it this bad, i beleive DPR was not meant for the poor . its for the elites, and their chilren.

No. A newspaper publication is no way a waste of time. We are fighting a battle where at this point we have nothing to lose already. The more reason we should fight with reckless abandon.

We have prayed. God, the Great Judge is on our side. It time for us to march forward and act.

Under who’s administration do you think all this happening. Integrity, Transparency.... I’m sure we have also heard those words multiple things from President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration. Well he is nursing a second term ambition....do i need to say more? He would have to show us he doesn’t just associate with the mere letters of these words but their meaning.

Mr Ahmad Rufai Shakur has silently tagged us as irrelevant. An effective message exposing the rout should drive home the message to him. My initial plan was to have this story ready for blogs and social media, tending when this recruitment ends without any merit. It would be in such a way they when ever his name is inputted into google search the keyword output would be DPR recruitment scam, dishonesty, bribery etc angry

shakur will tell you the recruitment is over, that is what he has been telling some big men that are requesting for one slot or the other. he use the first batch to settle 90% of the stakeholders so that tey will stop disturbing him. the recruitment is not over because there mustt be supplementary list even if there is no new list coming out, and remember 700+ slots were approved, they may decide to call for a new recruitment or fill the remaining slots using the interview result. if you dig deep yo will know the recruitment is not over, but the only thing i cant guarantee is the merit ish because everything is being compromised.

Exactly, but at the same time it depends on who asks him. There are different categories of BIG. Either way this stalling is not in our best interest and it is enough reason to doubt Mr. Ahmad Rufai Shakur’s intention towards merit candidates.

If he truly wanted to get this recruitment over with he would have ordered the dispatch of our letters and scheduled our resumption for June 2018; we won’t mind.

People, it is in our best interest to doubt Mr. Ahmad Rufai Shakur’s intentions in this recruitment because honestly speaking he hasn’t shown any form of good faith towards us, he didn’t deem it necessary.

I am in support of a Newspaper publication, to bring this matter to the notice of the presidency and the general public. I would gladly contribute generously toward its publication.

Hmm. Marvel65 is very much likely to be a DPR HR staff. I don’t want to be the pessimist but the vibe I get from Marvel65 is that the “rain” has started falling only that its not falling on any of us. If you know what I mean. Marvel65 himself seems to be surprised.

This has happened before remember. The first batch he told us the exact day APL started to “rain”, we all doubted him ‘cause none of us got wet; only to discover that that “rain” was never intended for us commoners smiley

Be there before 10am. Dress corporate. You may meet TATA or your helper in respect to DPR recruitment.

Goodluck to the brave n the risk takers.

If the letters are not released before 18th Oct, do what she proposed.

It is no news that Mr. Ahmad Rufai Shakur has already failed at his job, from the moment the 1st batch of Stakeholder candidates (that were singing his praises of Integrity, transparency blah blah) disappeared with their APLs; I couldn’t hold back my laughter.

If merit ever shows up and you’re so lucky to be part of the very few selected. Never forget that what was done to your comrades on this DPR journey was invariably done to you. Never forget “you” were disrespected, disregarded and robbed of a significant number of positions.
