wow just look at. Quality that just wanna get wasted due to lack of opportunity. Bro give it a try for a year again but I would advice with all this qualities you mentioned even I'd it's turkey you can get into I swear just from the regular street football there a division 3 or 4 club can sign you and wish Grace on your side you build up

I wish it was just straight forward as you put it. Getting back to at least 30% of the fitness level I had then would take a whole lot. The current economic realities in the country is not helping matters at all.

There are so many talents wasting in this country, not just in football. The odds are just against them. So many players are making it outside this country because they were either fortunate to be born there or had relatives who took them there.

I have a friend who is so good on and off the ball. He plays as a central or an attacking midfielder. His first touch is out of this world. He makes the game look so pleasing to the eyes. If you watch him play you would think he plays for Barcelona. Sadly, with all his abilities, he can't go far because he has not come in contact with that person who would give him that opportunity.

I was a center back bro but in the model of a David Luis kind of a center back. Could play as a defensive midfielder because I was very skillful with the ball at my feet

I played as a central and holding midfielder. I could mark and cover a lot of distance like Ngolo Kante. I could pass and tackle so well without committing a foul. I have a very good positional sense to read an opponent's pass, intercept it and snuff out the danger. These attributes made me slot into central defence easily.

There was a guy I faced in training then who was taller and more physical than I was. After the training, he walked up to me and asked me if took Cocaine before I came to train that morning.

I gave football my all, stopped schooling after my waec because of football, I and my precious late mom were duped twice because of football, I have a perpetual hip injury even till now because of football and when I decided to stop playing football and go to school after my third attempt at the embassy to travel out my mom died all because of football. I hate football now even though I still watch it but I can't forget with all my talent how football made a mockery of my life. But with God we would still Excel and still make it in life. So if you have a younger one if you can't send him out of the country to an academy in Europe just tell him to go to school or learn a trade or he would live in regrets at least I am still well to do and trying to be someone I have friends that their life is nothing to right home about because we gave the beautiful game our all. Enough of my rants jare.

Hey brother, we are in the same boat. I played football then for fun. I never knew something could come up until an Agent came to watch us play on a Saturday morning. I was lucky to be among the 8 players selected that day.

He asked us if we had our International Passport. Only one guy then had it. He told us to come with any of our Parents or Guardian the following Monday. I came with my elder brother.

My parents couldn't take that risk to allow me go because I was still very young then. It became more difficult because I gained admission into the University that same week.

Do I regret not playing football professionally? It goes both ways because the pendulum could have swung either in my favour or against me. By the way, what was your position?

It is one thing to get married early. It is a different thing entirely for one to get married early and is unable to provide for his family.


As a man, I want to be extremely comfortable before I even think of marriage. I don't need to be worried about my children's school fees even if they tell me they would be resuming for a new term the next day. I don't need to be worried if my nephews, nieces and my children's friends want to spend their holidays in my house. I don't need to be worried if my wife and children want to visit my parents or hers. I don't need to be worried even if my parents, siblings or friends visit me unannounced.


What about children on the streets who had lost their parents or their parents are not able able to train them? Do you know that if every financially stable person is able to train one child at least to be able to stand on his or her own, the level of poverty and crime will reduce?


If anybody tells you to get married early, would that person be there for you financially if you have problems later in the marriage? Your guess is as good as mine.

I said it.now I'm posted to Adamawa

How do u expect people from the west or east to travel a 10hrs journey just for 19800 service.


All the nysc staffs must be mad for posting me to Adamawa

Let me get prepared to redeploy
I can't waste one year in Adamawa.book haram state

Pls and pls.how do I redeploy
Wat do I need

Hello brother,

Adamawa State is not a bad place to serve in. Based on Google map, it is 20 hours from Lagos State by road.

The NYSC camp is in Girei Local Government Area and it is about 30 minutes from the capital, Yola. Camp is fun depending on what fun is to you. You will meet people from various backgrounds. Just conduct yourself properly and enjoy your stay in camp for these 3 weeks.

Any other information you need will be responded to as soon as possible. I am expecting you and every other corps members very soon in Adamawa State.

Good luck!

Ablyz:
I scored 199 in jamb .pls can study elect/ engr in fuoye

Your score is low for an Engineering course. I would suggest you look at changing to a State University, preferably the one in your state. Of course you know that state universities are more expensive than federal universities.

You need to research on the ones that are not that competitive to get into and go for them.

Rivers State University, formerly called Rivers State University Of Science And Technology (RSUST) is not that competitive to get into.

I know someone who gained admission into the school in the 2015/2016 academic session to study Mechanical Engineering with a UTME score of 192 and a Post UTME score of 40%.

Their cut-off is gotten by dividing UTME score by 8, then Post UTME score is divided by 2. The two scores are added to arrive at the cut-off point and candidates would be admitted once they reach the expected cut-off mark regardless of their state of origin.

Example:
UTME: 192/8=24
Post UTME: 40%/2=20
UTME+Post UTME: 24+20=44

However, the person in question could not resume studies with the school due to financial challenges. If finance is not your problem, then you can go ahead and change to Rivers State University.

Good luck.

My mom is. I stayed more with her, and I understand the language 100%, but cannot speak 5% of it.

The good thing is that you understand the language. Speaking it wouldn't be that difficult for you.

It seems you are a researcher at Jarushub? I read many of your write-ups and that of Jarus. They are very interesting I must say. Thumbs up.

Gerrard59:
And no Access? Ma Basi!!

Be like say JarusHub is the only career resource firm/blog that has authentic information in Nigeria.

For the guys who are lovers of football, please come with your playing kits. We need to make our camp very lively.

NENigeria:

I have been posted to Adamawa state.

Who is leaving from Akwa Ibom state here? For the guys who play football, please come with your playing kits. We must make our camp very lively.

Best message I've received all day.
Chat me up bro, we've got to lit Adamawa up.

Sadly, I am not on WhatsApp. I am on facebook though. You can use the MTN line on my signature and find me on facebook. The number is unreachable for now until I retrieve the line tomorrow or on Monday.

However, I can be reached through my airtel line as well.

charlieLegend:
I would b leaving Adamawa to serve in akwa ibom. wish u guys the best.

fear not, the state is so friendly and has it own fair share of hospitality. savour and bask in it goodies.

I for once really hope that a worst akwa ibom is better than the current atmosphere in Adamawa.

blessing fall on me

You are very much welcome to my state. Akwa Ibom is a very peaceful state and her people are very hospitable.

You will not have problems with food as there are very good restaurants and eateries here if you are the type who eats out. Some of our cuisines are but not limited to the following: Afang, Melon, Afere nkong (Vegetable soup), Bitterleaf, Afia efere (White soup), Editan, etc.

In terms of transportation, it is relatively affordable. These are the types of vehicles in use: Bus, taxi, tricycle (fondly called Keke Napep), motorcyle (mostly used in the inner parts of the cities and villages). If you board a tricycle, some short distances go for N30 if you bargain with the driver. If it is farther, then it is N50. Distances farther than that charged at N50 could go for N70 or N100.

With regards to accommodation, it is relatively afforable and definitely cheaper than the three biggest cities in Nigeria (Abuja, Rivers, Lagos). Self-contained appartments could go for about N80,000 - N150,000 per annum depending on the area, facilities, etc.

Being that you are a hausa man, you will feel at home since we have so many Hausas in this state. We patronise them since they sell meats (Suya) in the evenings, very good cobblers, etc. Some of them operate some kiosks by preparing indomie and eggs for sale.

The details above are for the state capital (Uyo) since I am based there. Popular places in Uyo are: International stadium, University of Uyo, Ibom Plaza, Ibom E-library, Ibom Tropicana, Akpan Andem market, etc.

Nearby places to Uyo are: Ibesikpo, Itu, Uruan, Abak. The most popular Local Government Areas in Akwa Ibom are: Uyo, Eket, Ikot Ekpene, etc.

Once again, you are welcome to Akwa "Abasi" Ibom state, the land of promise.

haywhyze:
Was devastated to be posted to Adamawa but there's nothing to do than to embrace it at least till after camp. Any other in my shoes should link up, let's communicate. Contact me on 08031961496 or just drop ur digits. I'll create a WhatsApp group and add u up.

Hey! Brother, you don't need to be devastated. I have been posted to Adamawa state as well.

We can create opportunities where none existed in this state. I will be leaving for Adamawa state from Akwa Ibom state.

By the special grace of God, we will get to camp safely, take part in the various activities in there and serve our fatherland successfully.

So, whatever Adamawa state has in store for us, bring it on. I am ready!
