TallNigerian:
Hello Nairalanders,

I will be 30 years in a few months and I have never felt so much unease as I do right now. I work with one of the federal parastatals and I am currently on level 10 going to 12 next year. I have a Master degree athough it is not exactly relevant to my current job.

The problem is that my organisation uses the Ministry salary structure and my monthly net is below 80k even as a level 10 staff.

I am not married and I am academically inclined. Asides having a Master degree, I have over 8 professional certifications.

I have been trying to clinch a transfer of service to a better parastatal where the remuneration is better and where my knowledge/experiences as a science graduate will be better appreciated but it has been a bit difficult.

However, just before the COVID-19 episode in Nigeria, I got the right link for a transfer of service to a better parastatal but the process got stalled with the COVID-19 palaver.

I have 4 siblings who are Canadian citizens and they have been on my neck to migrate. I never took the calls seriously until this lockdown period. My siblings are arguing about the uncertainty of the Nigerian economy post-covid and advising me to seize this opportunity to migrate and start a new career over there?

My question therefore, "is it wise to stay back since I have gone quite far in my public service career and just wait for the opportunity to transfer my service to a better paying federal parastatal OR do I migrate to Canada and start a new career?

Your honest inputs will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

@CrazyMan @1forall Please I need your help in pushing this forward for a wider view. Thank you.

ABBA KYARI: New accusations. I think it is fair to all Pro-Kyari people to respond to them. If these are true, they are serious. Some people will call it Karma on Kyari.
Wickedness is the worst virtue any man can have. I am putting this out here cos I know lots of us don’t know this gist. Two year ago, there was a misunderstanding between the then Minister of Health Isaac Adewole and Abba Kyari. The chief of staff wanted to control the activities of the Health Ministry but the Minister wouldn’t allow him, so Abba Kyari as the de facto president decided to teach the Minister a bitter lesson. He stripped the health ministry of its powers to purchase anything; bear in mind that the ministry of health is responsible for purchasing and distributing medical equipments, hospital supplies and drugs amongst Government owned hospitals such as General Hospitals and University teaching hospitals. Abba Kyari also immediately mandated the Federal Ministry of health to henceforth approach the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development should they need to ever buy anything or procure anything for all the hospitals and government owned health centers in Nigeria
SACRILEGIOUS!!!
!!!
What this means is that should the Minister of Health need to procure anything in his domain he would have to first write to his counterpart in Agriculture for clearance, which the Agric Minister may or may not give him by this single action the chief of staff literally rendered the health ministry useless as they couldn’t function. Just imagine how many lives must have been loss in both the city centers and rural communities because the hospitals didn’t have the resources to attend to their failing health
Imagine how many pregnant women must have died because of this satanic and diabolic martial order imposed on Health ministry. For ministry staff it was incomprehensibl
e as they all tried to come to terms with one man’s raging power drunkness. It was beyond humiliating for Isaac Adewole, so when he was replaced after Buhari’s second coming in 2019, staff of the Health Ministry heaved a sigh of relief that it’s now a fresh start as they were sure the absurd injunction would be revoked by Abba Kyari.
Unfortunately for them, even in the abundance of their wild imaginations, they underestimated Mallam Kyari. The new minister on resuming office realized he had no powers whatsoever and proceeded to ask the Chief of staff to reverse it to what is used to be, but he REFUSED!!!!! he said it would remain like that until whenever he so pleases. Things continued to deteriorate for the health sector in Nigeria and by February 2020, it all came out in the open. Following the Coronavirus outbreak, the Federal Government had asked the Central bank to provide the health Ministry with all the necessary funds it needed to buy whatever they need to keep Nigerians safe. But Mallam Abba Kyari BLOCKED all that money and REFUSED to allow the new Minister and his team commence work in earnest for things to have a smooth run. They couldn’t buy Ventilators and many other things they had requested. Out of frustration the new Minister told the press in a well publicized press conference that the presidency was blocking it from accessing funds for COVID-19. But out of fear he didn’t go into explicit narration of who is blocking what. Is it not the same sickness that you withheld the funding for its curtailment that eventually took you out? My people don’t let any unscrupulous elements and political contractors out there fool you, the Almighty God can NEVER be mocked!!!!!
In Nigeria a lot of us acquire degrees and intellect strictly for bragging rights. So many people don’t go to school in this clime to come back and eventually change the society for the better. You graduated from Warwick University! You read law at Cambridge! You are also a Harvard alumni! You were a successful banker! Yet your best opportunity to fix your country, you draaaaaaaged it further into the mud. How do you explain to your Harvard and Cambridge community that you transferred the procurement rights of the Health ministry to the Agriculture ministry even in the face of the most deadly virus ever seen by man
this culture of praising the dead with white lies even when they have deliberately caused us so much pain is primitive, medieval, atrocious, imbecilic and above all mirrors the inherent falsehoods in our culture. If I have the strength of time I might tell you something about his German trip you will never read it any where else
Whatever position you find yourselves in this life, be humble and most importantly may our subordinates not turn us to their prayer points

What a fellowship at the top....

I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven’s tableland,
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

I pray that I and whosoever agree with me will surely get there

A country that survives mainly on tax will want more people that can come in, work and pay tax..
The immigrants they wanna stop are third world Europeans that come in freely cos of the EU agreement, pay nothing, almost contribute nothing and automatically have access to free healthcare and subsidized education same for uk citizens....once they start for a while they become permanent resident with full benefits...

but the point based will bring in those that will contribute...they will make crazy money from application fees....their shortage of doctors and nurses and other professionals who will work and pay tax will be better solved unlike when the EU law restricts them...

Do u know how much the uk makes on education , now they will be able to collect more international rates from the EU citizens who wants to study in the UK...

.. Bleep her as in? Are you not a female?

@ OP, you bleeped up big time.I believe you have always been cheating on her. Be it as is now,your only remedy is to use reverse phycology on her.

Call her, apologize and finally tell her to forget about you,that you are not worthy of her love. Tell to go find another guy and watch her tell you that it has not gotten to that.Mind you this will only work if you act it well

Op,you are a brostitude Walahi.
