₦airaland Forum

I love this thread. We learn lessons everyday. As a philosopher, I can’t ignore some pertinent things I have noticed. I remember when there was unity, and everyone prayed and clamoured for APL in unison. Even when some of us opposed those who came here with APL predictions (sauces), everyone united in attacking the people in return. Such unity is actually a good thing. However, APL has now come, but guess what? Everyone answered his father’s name, and fewer persons than the rest got the APL and came to express their joy and happiness. And it seems these ones will move on with their new lives without even looking back at the rest who didn’t get APL. One thing I noticed from most celebrations here was the absence of consolation to those who didn’t get APL. People just came here to thank ‘God’ in heaven, and some announced they knew nobody and attributed their success to God; one shared a picture of his roasted fish and Pepsi in celebration mood. Another, in happiness, even said he would give his first salary to God (I laugh because he is actually giving his hard-earned money to his pastor). But I must say this: majority of testimonies all reeked of ‘all man for himself’, without empathy to those who didn't succeed. I’m not exonerating those who did not get APL; if you guys (non-APL people) had gotten, you would have done the same thing too.

So what am I saying? This clearly shows us that in this life, the average man is self-centred and cares for no one but himself first and foremost. If the average man unites or acts in unity with others, the driving force for this is his personal gain—not others’ gain, but his. My heartfelt condolences to the GT applicants who did not make it, and of course, congrats to those who made it. I am EH, and I wish all EH, who will get and who will not get APLs, the best in their endeavours.

Adizzy1234:
I just spoke to someone in HR, he said notifications will still be sent tomorrow and Monday. Anyone who hasn’t gotten should keep their fingers crossed. Congratulations to those who received theirs and goodluck to the rest of us who are waiting!

This is sheer wickedness. You are very wicked! You just want to torture people. Even if you heard such info, why not just keep it to yourself? You now want to bring other people into your hopefulness and misery. If Monday comes and nothing happens, I’m sure you will then say it will be till weekend. Guys please do not listen to him. It’s such a shame that such comment has already garnered many likes to show how desperate people are. Too sad!

Etr3y:
Can 1050 mails be sent at once?
Let's wait till Monday

Lol. They sent all emails at once for the interview invitation and the number was about 9000 I believe. So they can send 1050 emails at once. Take heart bro. Give it up. Don’t torture yourself.

meelee123:
Can any reliable source let us know if we should tlll expect anything by Monday?
Thank you.

Na wah o. U guys have been looking for closure since and now they have closed it, but you still want it open till Monday. Take heart. You nor die, na only APL u nor get. You will still succeed in this life.

Adiadi1:
It can only be God! I made a promise to God that I will give him my first salary.
After enough jonxy for interview.
This life ehh!!!
Apl is a goal

Electrical Engr.

Kai! Nigerian pastors don chop from this one o! My brother, it is not your promise or vow that made you get APL. That salary is not being given to God but to your pastor or, let’s say, your church.. God does not need your money. Stop calling God’s name in vain.. Receive sense in Jesus name!

Jarus:
Congrats to the successful candidates.

I hope we are vindicated about the EH vs GT thing (and the possibility of "slight shift" from the earlier info we provided).

No way. You gave us a wrong timeline. Congrats to the successful GTs. My condolences to those who didn’t make it. EH, which way na?

Are people still anticipating APL this week again? I'm happy we are gradually getting sense in this forum.

joobseekar:
Check your chances below. Most especially GTs will be placed accordingly I guess.

Me preparing thunder for the person that will quote this whole long post. As for you that made such long unnecessary post, I have nothing to say to you. This frustration of waiting for APL is really making people do crazy things on Nairaland o.

daima:
I am a sinner. But these guys just made my sin look like a learner's permit.
How do they sleep at night?
Igbo people from wherever you are. Arise, it isn't about Abia alone, it is about a race being strangled by her own ppl.

Mod please ban this guy. What kind of post is this?

scobyy2007:
Someone I know updated me this afternoon. Below is what I was told;
1. The lists have been ready two months ago
2. The selection was reasonably on merit
3. Calls will start rolling out hopefully next week.
Thank you

The goal post shifters! APL cometh like a thief in the night; no man knoweth! This is the reason why I will always be against anyone coming here with a prediction. Make we just rest for all this guess work till the APL surprises us! The more we predict, the more we drive the APL away.

Patientnnpctaff:
This a big lie
*NNPC can't be that comfuse, after planning to release GT, the will now change at die minute
* I doubt if FCC have approve the list for EH, n u expect them to wait for another 1-2month to go through some process b4 the release at same time..
* GT list is compiled n ready, wat is delaying it only God knows, but am pretty sure the management have approve it, I doubt if there will be sitting this week, we all know the COs and head of unit are at NIPS, it will be a busy week...
... Lets just pray, HR fasten the process and the APL get release b4 the week runs out as predicted by napo, c12, ladyj et al...

Somebody will just be using ‘have’ anyhow. Have you not heard of the word ‘has’ before?

c12112:
Recruitment process finalized officially.

1600 GTs to resume in March. Medicals this February. HR guys have been in Abuja sorting letters for dispatch. If your contact is strong, you can check names now.

Experience Hires roles summarily thrown in the trash; to be filled internally in May.

It's been a wonderful journey.

Peace.

See GT people liking the post. Mr man, come February ending, I will come for your head if the information proves to be false! Another ‘sauce’ don come again. Una nor dey tire sef?

NoHatred:
To all EHs, please be informed that the rumors of the cancellation of the EH process has really gained ground. Let's come together and brainstorm on how to stop this injustice. Those guys can't just play with us as if we are primary school pupils. The earlier the better.

Anything you hear is absolutely dubious. The only tangible proof that EH recruitment has been suspended is when GT get APLs and EH don’t get. Till then, there should be no cause for alarm. For all those saying contract staff can replace EH, there are some professions that there is no way NNPC could have had contract staffs in such fields all these years. You don’t expect a doctor, pharmacist, lawyer, etc to be with NNPC as contract staffs for several years when obviously they know it isn’t a permanent job. NNPC must certainly need new EH staffs; there must be vacancies somewhere that contract staffs cannot fill.

To me o, people just want the likes and vain glory. That’s the reason, I believe, they come here to share APL-release news. Because I see no other reason why one should assert that that APL will come out on a particular time frame. You heard from a source about the APL release, but why not just keep it to yourself and let the APL really come out? But no! ‘I must announce to nairalanders that APL is coming on so so date. I must tell the world to show I am very well-connected and influential.’ That is vain glory to me.
If you received praise and glory when you announced the APL news, be also ready to receive the bashing and chastisement when it backfires. You can’t eat your cake and have it. It is as simple as that. Like I have said before, and I will reiterate, let us allow APL come in peace, if it ever will, and stop driving it away with our predictions.

Meanwhile, Jarus right now.

It is 5.22 p.m. Friday, 7th February 2020 and yet no APL. With the power bestowed on me, I hereby decree that Jarus is no longer an authentic source as regards NNPC recruitment. Let us now focus on our daily lives and let APL come in its due time. Thank you.

moogoogaipan:
A Pity for the EHs, we should always remember them in our prayers. It isn't their fault rather that of NNPC, whoever was in charge of the recruitment planning should be flogged on the national TV and subsequently NNPC tender an official apology and some "owo ẹgba ema binu wípé ayọ yín lẹnu and wipe ako ọkan yín sókè"

moogoogaipan:
Don't let us decieve ourselves, my opinion is that a large % of the EH would still need some form of training. So, why train/hire new EH, when we have EH in our backyard that are delft with the system already.
So, Baru himself was complicit in the present EH woes... A pity ....

All these GT people, make una shut up una mouth make this APL come out first. Have you even seen APL at all? You are now consoling EH when nothing even dey your hand. There is no concrete information until APL comes, whenever it will. Only until then can we know whether anyone will be left out.

hillaboi:
.

This guy is scared to apologise with his own comment. He is now apologising inside another person’s comment. My man does not want people to quote him. Your smartness here clearly shows you were the originator of the prank.

Me looking at all of you right now—people expecting APL this week. Your expectations have made it easy for this guy to toy with you with fake APL.

Rafiq2:
Lol, if this thing no commot dis week ehn... Balher, MUB's & their new intern cocococo will scatter this thread & gloat like they won a ticket to heaven

Before nko? When we dey tell una say make una comot mind for APL predictions, una nor dey hear.

Lagoscorper:
It's either jarus just wants to pull our legs for the last time or he was never sure of his time frame. All dis new stories are c0ck and bull stories.

It is now getting clearer that no APL this week. I’m not saying Jarus was toying with us o by passing unverified information, but mehn, the present story from Jarus is just an excuse why people will say his timeline failed. They will say this: ‘People at NNPC Towers most likely got angry that the APL release information leaked, and now, NNPC suspended the APL release.’ I laugh. But come to think of it: why will NNPC get angry that an unofficial website (from Jarus) predicted a release date? That should be like a trivial issue that the NNPC HR team should easily brush aside and still continue their daily business. So, the stories of anger in Towers and supposed dust being raised in, due to Jarus’s site, look fabricated to me o, and no one should use this as an excuse why the predicted timeline did not work because this excuse is just a farce.

Please, for the sake of sanity in this thread, no one should predict any timeline of APL here. I have noticed that people just want to be celebrated or gain some kind of popularity, I should think, by trying to be ‘authentic’ sources as though they are NNPC themselves. I wouldn’t blame them though because we are actually the ones that fan their egos and propel them to act in such capacities. But we don’t need all this; I can bet many people could not focus on their jobs this past week because of the unnecessary excitedness—or should I say nervousness. I’m not an enemy of progress. I equally want APL to be released, but what I have learnt from this thread so far is that anytime anyone predicts a time frame for APL, it ends in disaster, shattered expectations and more frustration for us, and I believe this present prediction will follow same outcome. APL will come when no one expects; it is the people who will get it first that will come here to share their story, and then others will get subsequently via whatever source, be it SMS or email... Make we all just chill, and let APL surprise us. It is just unfortunate that this generation doesn’t like surprises. We impatiently want to know tomorrow. Those days, our pregnant mothers would wait till after giving birth before they know the sex of their babies; nowadays, after 3 months of pregnancy, you would see pregnant people itching and disturbing their doctors for the sex of their babies. I rest my case. May the best candidates get the APL, and may those who don’t get still blossom in their lives.

youngforever22:
Good afternoon fellow comrades. Certificate of compliance was just issued by federal character on Tuesday and all is set. What is causing delay is for budget department to approve upfront payments and all. Expect APL in early february

Another sauce.

Jarus:
I no sight any memo.
I just have confidence in the source (who is very very very close to top hierarchy in NNPC). For him to call me (unsolicited) on a Sunday morning (while playing my Sunday morning football ) to inform me it was going to happen this week (or next week max), I believed him.
I dropped it here immediately and later on our website.
Of course, anything can change. But I have not had contrary information (although I have missed his calls twice since yesterday).

Is it just me, or does it seem like someone is shifting the goalpost? When I dey tell una something, una nor go wan hear word.

’anything can change’ = ’barring last minute change’. A ‘sauce’ is always a ‘sauce’ abeg, no matter from whom it comes from. . The only true source is when the APL alert itself drops; so wait for it when the time comes. Case closed.

MirthOsas:
What if uncle Jarus' account was hacked before the last post?

The ‘Uncle Jarus’s account was hacked theory’ loading. The Jarus fan club will do anything to keep their oga sacrosanct. I can’t wait for February 8th. The thing about Nigerians is that una nor dey hear word. Remove your mind from any speculated date(s), but for where: they are back to what they were advised against. Take any APL prediction serious at your own peril.

Mitocyan:
Lool even if next week fails, we wont still decamp from trusting jarus because he has earned our trust. Even if he comes again to state another date we would still believe

Already making excuses for him? That one na una own, but come February 8, me waiting for Jarus where he plays football every Saturday morning.

GeniusOla:
Lol, seeing the wind boisterous, your faith shaketh, contrary winds only drives convictions deeper at its root, that case has been adjourned how many times now? Don't be surprised if it is adjourned again.
PS:- Until next week Friday, we are still on course.

I just dey laugh. After next week Friday, una go still shift the goalpost �. No man knoweth when APL commeth.

Mitocyan:
Another new recruit of MIB clan spotted. To dey share bad news no dey taya una?

E go shock you say no APL this week or even next week; my instincts tell me so.

NoHatred:
Everyone is basking in the euphoria
of the GTs' APL. I am happy for them. However, No one, especially those who have sure sources, seem to be concerned about finding out the reason for the delay of the EHs' APL.
Las las na God get final say.

E go shock u say both EH and GT APLs go come out together whenever they will. Never depend on online sources, no matter who the ‘source’ is. Make the APLs come out first.

APL whether GT or EH, if it will come, will come like a thief in the night. People expecting it this week or next week, don’t get your hopes dashed o. I have warned.

inrainbows:
panalyst january going fast, i think when panalyst sauce naw fails too. Everyone would know that nobody knows anything

Dude, January does not need to pass before you know no one knows anything. Even the GMD himself is equally confused. That’s how much of a shamble our society is.

Powersurge:
Anyone with a better analysis of the underlined? Because by my own interpretation, I see uncertainty in the line.

My people, like I said, let’s just forget about this NNPC stuff. I feel sad to say this, but the fact is that everyday, it is becoming clearer the exercise is a scam. It may have started as a genuine recruitment, but that is now long over. The recruitment is a scam. No APL this month and, and my instincts tell me, for several months to come. Our major priority right now should should be how to repair Nigeria for our children, beginning from infiltrating political parties to showing more interests in politics so that the bad eggs don’t end up ruling over us, the intellectuals. Once the government of any country is good, every other aspect will be better. Those clamouring for twitter callout of NNPC, it may be cool for us the lucky candidates who have progressed thus far, but I see such motivation as a bit selfish because the recruitment only concerns us. If some of us did not get to the interview stage, I don’t think such people would be fighting the course on twitter for the people who got to the interview stage. So, let’s think more than NNPC. Let’s think of Nigeria as a whole. There is a deep-rooted fundamental problem in this country. Channel any energy you have into repairing Nigeria, first and foremost via politics. This enthusiasm to change Nigeria should be for our children like I said. For our present generation, there is no hope.
