NYSCRe: Is Nigerian Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Worth Doing? by chidike(m): 1:21am On Apr 28, 2012
Total waste of time! i regret working my service to my place of residence (maybe this is part of the reason i think its a waste of time). Worked my posting too to a polytechnic which is like the best posting you can get (since we were all sent to schools and ministries). But still i hate it. Granted, i don'( pay for food, accomodation and sometimes transport. But its just bloody boring. i'm supposed to be lecturing in the poly, i'm yet to start though, right now they send me to go and buy razor, chewing gum, recharge card, make photocopies and type documents (you know all those lazy old women in govt offices shey?). The only fun thing about NYSC was the camp experience. i guess if i had worked it to another state i would have enjoyed the fredoom of my service year. Right now, i've discussed wit the top guys at my place of primary assignment, they're letting me go, i'll be coming back for clearance at the end of the month. Ii'm off to Lagos to get a job and enjoy my service year.!

TV/MoviesStar Quest 2012 Sucks!!! by chidike(op): 10:57pm On Apr 19, 2012
Have you guys been following star quest? i think this year's edition is one of the worst, the instrumentalists are OK, but the singers are fair at best. i blame star for this, what would it cost a big organization like star to get these singers a vocal coachhuh All other music reality shows in naija have vocal coaches. From MTN project fame, Nigerian idols to Naija sings. I mean how do you expect these guys to growhuh day after day they come out to deliver mediocre performances that could have been better if they had guidance. this show is really wack! the presenter comes into the house to announce who gets evicted (the list was probably conjured up by the producer, how are we supposed to be sure that the votes count?). i'm pissed cos they let two very good bands (d'rays and da blings) go. even though right from the start of the show i knew crystals had something special that could make them win, the first two bands that left could have given them a good run for the prize, we all know (at least i know) that crystals will win this one.

but let me just say that star really needs to restructure this competition so that they stop producing bands that fade into oblivion after a track (if they're lucky to produce one.). i said it before and i'll say it again...Wack!

NYSCRe: NYSC May Relocate Corp Members From Kano And Kaduna States. by chidike(op): 11:14am On Apr 16, 2012

NYSCNYSC May Relocate Corp Members From Kano And Kaduna States. by chidike(op): 11:11am On Apr 16, 2012
As a result of the recent bombings in Kaduna and
Kano states, the National Youth Service Corps
may relocate corps members from the states for
security reasons.
The Deputy Director, Public Relations of the NYSC,
Mr. Peter Atilola, told SUNDAY PUNCH that though
there was currently no plan to withdraw corps
members en masse from the two states, corps
members serving in those states could apply
individually to be relocated on the grounds of
worsened security situation.
“For now, there is no plan for relocation of corps
members from Kaduna and Kano states, but if
any corps member feels he or she is not safe in
these places, he or she can apply and would be
relocated,” he said.
It would be recalled that the Minister of Youth
Development, Bolaji Abdullahi, had ordered NYSC
not to post corps members to Borno and Yobe
states late last year when there were frequent
bombings and gun attacks by suspected
members of the Boko Haram sect, resulting in the
death of hundreds of people.
The corps members who were initially posted to
the states were directed to observe their
orientation exercise in Benue and Nassarawa
states, and were reposted to all states of the
federation, except for Borno and Yobe States.
With some deadly bomb attacks in the past few
months including Easter bomb attack which killed
about 40 people, the security situation has
drastically worsened in Kaduna and Kano states,
resulting in some residents relocating to other
parts of the country they considered safer.
The Special Adviser to the minister, Mr. Julius
Ogunro, told SUNDAY PUNCH that the policy of
the Ministry for Youth Development on the
security of corps members remained that corps
members would not be posted to any part of the
country where their security could not be
guaranteed.
Ogunro added that the policy would be applied to
any state of the federation, just the way it was
applied in the case of Borno and Yobe states.
In a recent interview with journalists, Abdullahi
said the security of corps members was very
important to Federal Government, noting that
“the youth service scheme is not worth the life of
anybody.”
He said, “One of the major initiatives we have
taken is to develop a security alert system that
maps the country—some kind of early warning—
and to take decision on posting of corps members
based on our awareness of the security
circumstances in various locations.
“So we are not saying because NYSC is a national
service, then we must post corps members to all
parts of the country. Our pragmatic approach is
to say wherever there are real or potential
security challenges, we will not post corps
members to such places.”
The minister also stated the NYSC would not have
orientation camps in places where there was real
and potential security challenge and would not
post corps members to such places until there
was an evidence of significant improvement.

The girl no dey even try at all. chaii!!! embarassed

They should not let this girl operate machinery or any sort of computer.[/quote]Where i graduated from its 5.0 not 4.0 o! I remember my final year 1st semester my GP was 3.4, i worked hard at studying and eventually came out with a 3.6. Abeg her result is her own doing, that's wat uni students don't get, there's LIFE after university. Where your good degree will give u a lil edge over others. Most companies won't even collect CV from 2.2 graduates, if u like sabi book well well. i hope she has some kind of skill she can harness, or if she fine, find a husband and settle down, cos that result only tells me that this chic went to school and didn't study. i remember a guy in my dept when i was in 4th year, he was withdrawn for having over 20 carry over in various courses (i'm not exaggerating). Tell me where that one wan start from. If you're still in the uni and reading this, let this be a lesson to you, study hard and make your parents proud. i came out with a 2.1, i'm still serving and i've already been called for two aptitude tests. i'm believing God that before the end of my service year i would have secured a job.
FamilyRe: How & Why Do Siblings Fall Apart? by chidike(m): 6:20pm On Apr 09, 2012
Envy, jealousy, greed. You all are saying the same thing, as far as i'm concerned, sibling rivalry is caused by bad parenting. i'm the last boy, i'm a uni graduate, and everytime i see the way my dad address my immediate elder bro cos he's a doctor, already has a car. i do almost all of the house chores. Really, if not for the love of God in me, i would feel very envious of him. But u know wat? i'm not. i'm working hard to make it too. When parents shower more love or attention on one kid than the other, the other kid feels left out. i've really learnt how to treat my kids from my parent's mistakes

Didn't u read where i said the guy can sing, did that sound like beef in ur ears/eyes? If u really followed the show, thee way charlie boy talked to the guy after each performance was questionable. Not from the guy, (though is femine dramatics on stage may have fueled it), i guess its charly boy's way.

I also heard that the bomb laden car did not get to its destination, thank God for that, only God know where it was heading. Heard the occupants exploded with the car too.

PoliticsRe: Over 20 Killed As Explosion Rocks Sadauna Crescent, Kaduna by chidike(m): 10:18am On Apr 08, 2012
i'm in kaduna as well, the explosion happened near Assemblies of God church. Its really sad that these islamic extremists won't allow us enjoy our celebrations, but they enjoy their sallah unharmed. i hope someone retaliates.
Here's how its been reported by daily times:


A large explosion, suspected to be bomb blast,
rocked an area near the All Nation Christ
Assembly church in Kaduna on Easter Sunday
morning.
Kaduna state police spokesman Aminu Lawan,
confirmed the incident but was unsure if there
were causalities.
Residents in the area said the explosion shook the
foundation of buildings around the area, adding
that the site had been cordoned off, but he said
he could see damage to a church and cars.
Both the United Kingdom and the United States
had earlier warned that violence was possible this
Easter weekend.

So i need to know if there's actually going to be a KPMG aptitude test on April 14, in lagos. And since i didn't directly apply but got an email, if i travel to lagos, will i be allowed to write the exam? (i'm in kaduna and don't want to watse transport money). Also, is it to early to start applying for jobs since i just started my NYSC??
