[quote author=Armani_NG]You need lessons in intelligence and manners friend. That's all you'll get from me.
Have a nice life.[/quote]Please stop tryin to piss me off. Why are you insulting me? What do you mean by i need lessons in intelligence? Lessons from you? Just because i told you off for your selfishness?

So according to you, he should not have given us advice on the personality test? Why are you even on nairaland at all if it isn't to get advice on how to get ahead in life? Please i beg u, allow good people to give as many people as possible a chance in these assessments, as you cannot be diminished by the rising of others. Thank you.

[quote author=Armani_NG]@Joboy, as wonderful and selfless as your contribution has been, I believe its wrong to tell individuals what to choose in a 'personality assessment', people need to answer honestly and fairly.

In the world of today its one thing to get a job and its another to get one which matches your personality and strengths to enhance job performance and satisfaction. Thanks for the help anyway.[/quote]My friend, keep quiet. Are you so selfish that you want you alone to pass the test. Don't you know that there are right and wrong answers in a personality test unlike what they would like us to believe?

How can you be talking about job that matches your personality in this Nigeria? Please just keep quiet if you have no further contribution. Thank you.

OmoPastor: buhari is a joker and an old liar. how come he's talking now after a long spell of evil unleashed by his "dogs" (BH) cos 2015 election is very close and heating up and this is the guy some disillusioned people are presenting for presidency?

may the gods send buhari on errands he never asked for, yeye man

My friend, next time read the post before making useless comment.

Well, isn't it obvious? or do you want me to spell it out for you? He condemns the activities of the sect (i.e bombing), what else do you want? You want him to solve the problem for Mr. Retardeen President?

Why is there a perception that Gen. Buhari never condemns the activities of the sect (including the post-election violence) while the evidence to the contrary is quite clear? Is this simply the means people choose to reinforce their folly that the General is their sponsor?
Here are a few of Buhari's rebuttals to these miscreants called Boko Haram and killings in general.

Former Head of State Muhammadu Buhari was among eminent Nigerians and institutions who have condemned the Christmas Day church blasts in several states of northern Nigeria.

In his response, General Buhari said, "Bombing other human beings to death at any time is callous. It becomes much more reprehensible on a Christmas day and all lovers of peace must condemn these gruesome acts and demand that the perpetrators be fished out and brought to book."
The bombings took place at the St. Theresa’s Catholic Church, Madalla, Niger State; Jos, Plateau State; and Damaturu, Yobe State.

Former Head of State and Presidential Candidate of Congress for Progressive Change, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari has condemned Friday bomb attacks at the United Nations building in Abuja in which many lives were lost and several others wounded. He described the horrendous attack as heart rending devastation and a great challenge to the emotion. Gen Buhari sends condolences to the United Nations, the mourning people of Nigeria and the grief-stricken families who have lost beloved ones in this unfortunate incident: "It is my prayer that the Almighty will comfort all the bereaved and bring speedy recovery to all the wounded" he said.

A leopard cannot change its spots. A retardeen shall always be a retardeen. Foo.l at 40 is f.ool forever

I just remembered having read this article by Sonola Olumhense on Saharareporters, a week before Mr President's swearing-in, at the start of his presidency, and decided to look for it and post it here.

Please let us debate, has he kept his promises to Nigerians or not

Starting next Sunday, you could call Nigeria’s Goodluck Jonathan the Busiest Man in the World, or BMW. That is the day the clock will start ticking for him until May 2015 when his successor is expected to be sworn in.

As everyone now knows, as the presidential elections approached, Jonathan was overflowing with promises. The first category of promises applied to the general issues. He promised such things as electricity, security, jobs, and education, as well as to transform the economy and combat corruption.
The second concerned specific strategic “plans”:

• A five-year plan to revolutionize agriculture and establish industries in the country (Oturkpo, Benue State February 17);

• A four-year development plan that would open up the South-South geo-political zone (Calabar, Cross River State, March 7); it includes a blueprint for coastal roads and railways;

• A five-year development plan to accelerate development in the country (Asaba, 25 February);

• Roads and other basic infrastructure to be developed in four years (Akure, March 2).

• Road construction to take new five-year structure, ending yearly budgetary allocations (Ibadan, February 9);

• Five-year strategic plan for road projects (Bida, February 22).

• A holistic review of the nation’s our education policy (Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, March 12)

Dispensing the third category of promisory notes, Jonathan seemed determined to give unto each Nigerian in the next four years and sometimes right away, a remarkable slice of fulfillment, with promises that teased and tantalized. Here, in state by state order, are a few:

In Aba on February 12, he promised to stamp out kidnapping; provide facilities that would boost the enterprising spirit of the Igbo; upgrade the Enugu airport to international level; dredge the River Niger; build a dry port in Aba for Igbo businessmen; complete the Second Niger Bridge; rehabilitate all the main roads into Abia; tackle the erosion crisis; and make Aba the Ground Zero of eventual aircraft production in Nigeria.

In Uyo on March 7, he promised to build coastal roads and rail from Lagos to Calabar.

In Awka on Feb 26, he said he would construct all the major roads which link Anambra with its neighbors; complete the ongoing aero-dynamic survey of gas in the Anambra River basin, which [leading to] power supply, then Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) industry”; complete the second Niger Bridge; and complete the Onitsha Inland Port. Nigerians would not be talking about generators after his four years in office, he vowed.

In Bauchi on February 9, he promised to intensify oil and gas exploration in the North-East Zone; boost agriculture, power and water supply; provide dams and power projects; establish two universities in the region; construct schools with modern facilities for 9.5 million Almajiris; and combat rising terrorism in the area.

In Asaba on February 26, he announced that the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation would create jobs for over 5,000 youths in the region; promised to transform the Nigerian oil and gas industry and make it the destination of choice for investors in Africa; convene a stakeholders meeting across the country where communities will be able to determine their priority programmes.
In Dutse, on March 17: Jonathan promised to establish airports in all the states without airports, with Jigawa as his starting point.

In Abakaliki on Feb 25, he promised the South East geo-political zone priority attention, especially in fixing its dilapidated road network and in healthcare delivery; dualize the Enugu-Abakaliki Express Road within one year; convert the Federal Medical Centre in Abakaliki to a teaching hospital.

In Enugu on February 12, he promised to stamp out kidnapping, ensure facilities that would enhance the enterprising spirit of the Igbo; upgrade the Enugu airport to international level; dredge the River Niger; build a dry port in Aba for easy access to Igbo traders; and complete the Second Niger Bridge.
In Birni Kebbi on March 20, he promised to establish schools for Almajiris, boost agricultural produce, ensure the take-off of the Federal University in Kebbi next year.

In Lokoja on February 21, he promised to revive the Ajaokuta Steel Complex and the Itakpe Iron Ore Company; explore the agricultural potential of the state to boost food security; establish a new federal university; ensure the speedy completion of the Lokoja-Abuja road project, and dredge the lower and upper River Niger.

In Ilorin also on Feb 21, Jonathan promised to end discrimination along ethnic and religious lines; tackle poverty; agricultural transformation of Kwara State; rehabilitation of the nation’s railway system; rehabilitation of the Ilorin-Mokwa road. He would also revitalize ailing industries and grant loans to farmers (objectives for which, he said, funds had already been earmarked).

In Lafia on February 7 at the North Central Zone launching of his campaign, Jonathan promised to end chronic power shortages; improve health and education; ensure food self-sufficiency; manage oil revenues better; create a Sovereign Wealth Fund. He would also clampdown on kidnappers and criminals; pursue law breakers to the ends of the Earth, and ensure there would be no sacred cows. He guaranteed a university in every state; proper care for communities along the water ways; and construction of a refinery.

In Lagos on February 28, Jonathan promised to partner with Lagos State in the interest of its continuous growth and the nation’s economic buoyancy. “We have taken this period to study what we are going to do and by your mandate in May 29, we will hit the ground running,” he said.

In Jos on February 17, he promised “a straight fight” against poverty; to create wealth by improving power and water supply; to build more dams and complete ongoing ones in order to boost irrigation farming in Plateau; to complete the Vom-Manchok-Jos road to boost economic links between Plateau and Kaduna states; to encourage more agricultural research institutes; refocus on solid mineral development.

In Minna on Feb 15, he promised to establish three power projects in the state at a cost of $2.1bn (about N315bn).

In Port Harcourt on February 12, at the launching of his South-South Campaign, he promised to commence “transformational changes” in the South-South; said the NNPC had begun investing in the petrochemical industry in the region; that the people in the region would be given a voice in the oil and gas sector. He promised to make the Niger Delta region the hub of the petrochemical industry in Africa.

In Abeokuta, on March 12, he promised to revive the railway system; revive ailing refineries; build new refineries.

In Akure on March 2, Jonathan promised that the bitumen deposits in the state would be exploited for economic development and employment generation; to provide funds for small and medium scale enterprises, mechanised farming and agro-based industries; and to partner with relevant agencies to harness the agrarian nature of the State “to open up the flank of semi and mechanized farming in the State to engender a paradigm shift from subsistence farming to reliable modern agricultural practices.”

In Osogbo on March 2, he promised to complete the Lagos-Jebba rail project right away; complete the Ife-Ijesa dam; enhance agricultural irrigation; provide farmers with adequate information; invest in petrochemicals, mining, research and development.

In Ibadan on February 9, at the SouthWest launch of the campaign, he promised to: run a transparent government; treat all citizens equally; respect law and order; turn around the nation's bad road network.
In Gusau on March 15, he promised to establish a federal university of technology within one year.

Jonathan’s fourth and final confetti carton of promises seemed designed to overwhelm anyone who had not yet folded under the avalanche:

• N50 billion set aside in 2011 Budget to facilitate employments for the youths (Ondo, March 2);

• build car manufacturing or assembly plants (meeting with leaders of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Abuja, March 21);

• Revive ailing oil refineries and build new ones (Abeokuta, March 12)

• Collaborate with state governments to explore the solid minerals sector (Gusau, March 15);

• Spend N350 billion in building small dams across the North in the next four years to stimulate “massive irrigational farms” (Northern Economic Summit, Kaduna, March 19);

• Expand and develop the downstream sector of the oil and gas industry to provide about one million jobs (one-man presidential “debate,” March 31, Abuja);

• Make Nigeria an exporter of rice (Presidential Summit on Job Creation, Abuja, April 12);

• Crackdown on piracy in the entertainment industry (Presidential Summit on Job Creation, Abuja, April 12)

This is an abbreviated description of Jonathan’s election campaign which seemed designed to tell the immediate listener whatever he wanted to hear, and to ensure he receives the keys to the presidential palace and the Central Bank next Sunday.

I have saved his most memorable promise, made in Onitsha on February 27, for last: "I do not make empty promises in my campaign because whatever I promise to do, I had already carried out adequate study to make sure I can accomplish it in the next four years."

redsquare, you did not mention aguata lga

Haha elderly rascality

samilo88: What do u mean by quite easy? Easy for u might not be easy for others considering the fact that some pple were writing such kind of exam for the first time. Congrats on ur success but pls don't try to demoralise those who didn't pass as well as making a mockery of the test. The test was quite OK, this is not SAT or engineering Math it is an apptitude test.

Dude, chill men. Noone should be demoralised. I was giving my experience with the test to relax those who are to write it in the future. If ur relaxed, the test should be a breeze.
Thanx.
NB: once you are given the test, go straight to the verbal and critical reasoning sections. Once done there, take ur time wit the quantitative and guess d remaining in the last 5 mins. You must surely pass.
Pass mark, 25 over 50

Just received a success message on the owerri test of 21st. It reads: we are pleased to inform you that you were successful, you will be contacted soonest.

To be honest, the test was quite easy and dere were too many grammatical errors in the verbal section. Goodluck to all of you.

yuzedo: Where can one learn Graphic design in Lagos? Duration and cost? (Best schools I mean) and does Pan African University's School of Media & Communication offer any course(s) on the subject?

Yuzedo, you should try banana island. :-)

Tank God o, my own was slated for Friday, 26th April. Praying we all go tru.

O boi, I just wrote the two testz now. Omo the numerical easy pass wetin I dey expect o. Tis well sha, had to guess for a few questions to move forward though. It is too bad that they don't allow one to come back after passing a question. Good luck to us all.

Guys, but my own mail said t'will be a numerical and verbal test and not personality test. Please can someone confirm?

Thanx to you guys for sending the pack.

If we produced all our petrol in the country, there will be ZERO need for the subsidy in the first place. The govt should not put the cart in front of the horse and ignore the elephant in the room.
