Thank you

Jobs/Vacancies / Isn't This Nigerian Worth Supporting? by Captain47(m): 3:41pm On Sep 28, 2016
ISN'T THIS NIGERIAN WORTH SUPPORTING?

Sir/Ma'am,
Is this Nigerian worth supporting? (kindly find her biography below) If yes, we kindly solicit for your support by following the link below to make your vote. Why should Sudan be leading? Lets VOTE Wadi Ben-Hirki for African Peace Paul Builder of the year. Please, my nairalanders lets do this.

Voting link: https://africa.peacesummit.net/awards-shortlist/

BIOGRAPHY

Wadi Ben-Hirki is a 19 years old Nigerian who resides in Northern Nigeria. She is a final year student at Covenant University, Nigeria, and the founder of Wadi Ben-Hirki Foundation, a charity organization that helps the disadvantaged children in the society through the campaigns: #Street2School, #GirlsNotWives and #LITMOW (Love In The Midst Of War.)

In the event of being engaged in peacebuilding activities, she has faced several challenges such as; insufficient funds to run some campaigns, lack of access to some victims living in areas that have been greatly affected by terrorist attacks simply because of being a girl child. Nevertheless, these challenges have not stopped her. So far, she has been able to reach approximately 500 people through her peace campaigns.

Some of her peace work achievements include: membership in the Association of Women’s Rights in Development, one of the selected Youths to participate in the African Union Regional Youth Consultation on human rights (August 2016), Nigerian Teen Choice Awards Choice Philanthropist of the Year (2015 & 2016), Covenant University humanitarian of the year 2016 among others.

MIGHTYMAN82:
mr man ur lies is 2 much u forgot u enter d screening ground with ur original copies of documents hw come ur own is different


Yes o.... I don't believe his story as well! All applicants who went for police screening where all required to enter the screening venue with photocopies of their educational documents as well as their Original for onward verification. So I ask you, why was yours outside?

More so, considering the fact that the whole North East is peculiar to constant terror attacks, common sense should have told you to go to the screening venue with just a leather jacket to house both your original and photocopies as well. Am sorry to say that indeed you were very careless. Don't blame any police officer who were doing their best to prevent any syndicate from smuggling in improvised explosive devices into the venue.

However, I pray you recover what you lost..Good Luck!!!

That is a very misguided information or signal my brother. The federal government can not abolish the Short Service Commission as the Nigerian Defence Academy does not produce some of the speciality needed in the force.

Career / Address By The Comptroller-general Of Customs, Col. Hameed Ali (rtd) At The Firs by Captain47(m): 7:34am On Sep 18, 2015
ADDRESS BY THE COMPTROLLER-GENERAL OF CUSTOMS, COL. HAMEED ALI (Rtd) AT THE FIRST MEETING WITH ALL OFFICERS AND MEN HELD AT CUSTOMS HEADQUARTERS ON FRIDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER, 2015
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]
Good morning Officers and Men.
Since I took over yesterday, I have been receiving briefing notes to enhance my understanding of the Nigeria Customs Service. I have articulated some ideas to start with, and I have found it necessary to share these ideas with you. These ideas shall be the guiding principle and platform for a smooth takeoff. 
2. First and foremost, it is important that we know where we are going. We can start by ensuring that we pick up the mantle of Mr. President’s policy thrust. Therefore, in conjunction with you, moving with you and fighting with you we will fight corruption and restore discipline through attitudinal orientation for effective service delivery.
3. We will optimally achieve the core statutory functions of the service, of revenue collection, trade compliance, and facilitation, anti-smuggling activities, national security amongst others, based on the service motto of “Honesty and Justice”.
4. We will commensurately further enhance the welfare of Officers and men for maximum service delivery.
5. We will ensure the strict application of Customs and Excise Management Act (CEMA) CAP-C45 Laws of Federation of Nigeria (LFN) as amended 2004, Customs codes, Extant Laws and Federal government’s circulars in all customs operations, through training and re-training of officers and men on how to apply them in their day to day operations.
6. We will address all anomalies manifest in recruitment, training, posting and promotion of officers and men of the service.
7. All Customs Officers and Men shall adhere strictly to the customs clearance, guidelines and procedures.
8. All Customs Area Controllers, Head of Units and Department shall be held accountable for all established infractions to do with false declaration, deliberate misapplication of the tariff, undervaluation and concealment.
9. All Customs Area Controllers, Heads of Units and Departments shall now send a weekly report on all proven cases of false declarations, deliberate misapplication of tariff, undervaluation, concealment and seizures with full compliments of action taken to the office of the Comptroller-General.
10. The extant procedures of disposal of seizures and overtime cargoes would be comprehensively reviewed to address the current abuse. A public statement shall be issue as soon as the review exercise is complete.
11. The Legal and Investigation Units of the Service shall be overhauled and strengthened to meet the maximum demands of the emerging challenges.
12. The welfare of Officers and Men shall remain uppermost in my mind, in the same manner; officers with corrupt tendencies shall not be tolerated.
13. The Customs training colleges in Lagos and Kano and the Academy in Abuja shall be further upgraded to meet the current demand.
14. The trading public including Importers, Excise traders, Exporters and Agents are expected to comply strictly with the extant Laws, rules and regulations.
15. The Service shall work hand in hand with other critical Agencies including but not limited to the Army, Navy, Air force, Central Bank of Nigeria, DSS, EFCC, ICPC, Immigration, FAAN, NDLEA, NAFDAC, SON, Ports Security, Plant/Animal Quarantine, and NESREA.
16. The Service shall also strengthen its existing relationship with commercial Banks, Terminal Operators, Shipping line, Shipping Agents and various registered and recognized clearing Associations and all the maritime correspondents of the press at our areas of operation.
17. The Service commitment to International Organizations such as ECOWAS, World Customs Organizations (WCO), World Trade Organizations (WTO) and other International Agencies under the United Nations shall continue to be respected and strengthened.
18. The office of the Comptroller-General is open 24/7 to the legitimate complaint from members of the trading public in the spirit of optimizing quality service delivery.
19. However, I must stress this for emphasis. I will not tolerate indiscipline. I will not tolerate corruption. I have zero tolerance for corruption. Considering my military background, I believe punishment must be punitive for others to see as deterrent. Therefore, as an officer of the Nigeria Customs service, if you are caught involved in corruption, I am not only going to dismiss you, I will make sure I prosecute you and jail you. That is basic.
20. Thank you all.

Education / Best Advice For Over All Band Score Of '8' In Your Ielts Exams by Captain47(m): 3:31pm On Sep 12, 2015
When writing/transferring your answers onto the answer sheet, write all of your answers in CAPITAL LETTERS. This way, not only will it be easier for markers to read what you wrote, you also avoid having to worry about whether your answer needs to have a capitalised letter or not. Proper nouns, for instance, when written on the answer sheet with a lower case letter, even if it is the right word, might be counted as wrong. Avoid this simple mistake by writing everything in capital letters on your answer sheet for the listening and reading sections.



For listening, I advise you to be an “active” listener: cross out the words on the question booklet as you hear them so that you’re not just “listening”. By doing something at the same time, you are more likely to keep on task, instead of letting your mind wander.

The reading section is all about getting the grasp of what each paragraph is talking about, and using this as a “map” to locate your answers. You may wish to jot down some key words next to each paragraph to help you scan quickly which paragraph(s) the answer is likely to be in.

In your writing, when it comes to the second section, I advise you to be opinionated – don’t sit on the fence. Reading newspapers or watching the news in English is a good place to start to form your opinions on general topics that may show up in this section. It is also a good practice for your reading and listening skills.

When it comes to your speaking, it is a good idea to read through previous topics from IELTS-Blog.com, and think about what you’ll say if you were to get this question. Remember that “honesty” is not being marked here, so as long as your story is believable, and you’re able to convey it with your current English level, it will avoid moments of “blanks”, and will likely raise your score as a result.

One suggestion I have is to talk about something that has already happened to you, but using a future tense. For example, if you’re asked about travel plans, tell about the travel plans you made in the past, but talk as if you were planning this for the future. This way, you will sound more genuine, since it’s something that actually happened.”
