Cherechy: I served in SEC and can tell y'all what's happening there firsthand. This woman just wants to be frustrated out of office for nothing. It is mere politics. The past 2 DG's were hausa and brought in so many of their pple esp as jnr staff. Walk thru d corridor of SEC an d hear hausa as d lingua franca.
Madam came and sanitised SEC. The market didn't collapse during her tenure. They ran d place down and left it for her to come and fix. She has cut all d avenues where they eat money frm and dts why the staff hate her. Let me list a few of her reforms in SEC.
1. Foreign course for staff used to be for 2weeks. SEC will foot d bill and all. These courses don't last more than 3days. Staff use d remaining days to shop and stroll around europe and america, madam came in and cut short foreign training to 1week. If it were u, won't u hate her?
2. The dept in charge of processing visas for d foreign training nw started doing chuachua. To liase wit d course organisers, book flight, arrange visas etc were their duties. Madam came in and told each staff to process their travel docts themselves. Book their flights themselves and bring d schedule to Accounts for payment. If u were d one enjoying frm dt dept before won't you hate her?
3. During christmas it is d tradition at SEC to give all staff a bag of rice and groundnut oil. The pple collating d list usually inflate. They'll add names of ex-corpers and IT dt hv since left and amasse d good s for themselves. Last xmas, when madam saw d budget 4 rice alone, she instructed account dept to monetise everything and pay the money into individual staff accounts. She effectively cut off dt channel for corruption! Well, d folks at Admin hate her for that too.
4. Before she came to SEC, there used to be overtime. If u wrk anytime after 4'0 clock u'll be paid I think above a 1000naira, maybe 1500 or 2k. So staff will close by 4pm and sign 6pm or 7pm at d register. Corpers and IT were living large then. In addition to 25k salary, wen u add overtime it was almost amounting to 50k or more. Wen madam came in, she reduced overtime to 195naira daily. Suffice it to say dt everyone stopped working overtime!
Staff hate her becos she has cut off all their avenues of eating govt money. Before she signs anything involving money she scrutinises it, sometimes it takes months for her to sign budget for ordinary office supply. At a point A4 paper was like gold there cos d store was empty. Yes, she's that thorough.

If anyone shud hate her it shud be me! Cos I wasn't retained after service. Before her it was almost automatic to get employed after service at SEC. Half of d managers there today did NYSC there. But she has said she won't employ for employing sake. She wants relevant courses to what is being done at SEC. Law, Accounting, Economics, IT, etc. Someone dt read history has no business being in SEC. How won't d market collapse wen we have mediocres at the helm of affairs. She said it on TV that d staff aren't competent and its true. I worked wit these pple. The only thing keeping them there is the experience they've gotten over d years.
Call Oteh arrogant I'll agree, she doesn't carry staff along, good and fine but please that Lady is one fine anti-corruption Amazon. They want to frustrate her out of office so it will return to business as usual.

The so called SEC union is not even a month old. They haven't held elections yet, they just handpicked themselves and took posts. Now they're protesting. Previous DG's refused d formation of trade union at SEC, is it not under her tenure that they've now formed it?

My prayer is dt she's recalled to continue the goodwork she's started at the SEC. Evil triumph when good people do nothing. Half the comments here on NL are skewed cos d posters have half facts. Not everything u see in Newpaper is true!

Abali1: Please stop reasoning like this. Even if she can afford, do think she will SPEND 800K ON JUST FOOD. We should all be able to call a Spade by it's real name.

caseless: How oblivious are u of events or ur society? Hav u not heard she fed everyday wt 800000? Is dat's nt a crime?

miteolu: The embattled SEC boss who has been shown to abuse her office & chop N85,000.00 of the people's money on food per day. when some of the citizens in her organizations are earning 18,000 per month

excel26: I applied to this company BAM Construction Company UK via nairaland and i got a text yesterday inviting me for a visa interview in British high commission in Abuja on d 19th of july 2012, i was at d address today and they said they do not conduct interview in dat address, i also got an appointment letter with a huge salary from this BAM Construction Company UK,

my concern is that they are asking me to pay N16,500 for INTERNATIONAL WORKS CERTIFICATE to a first bank account and that i need to pay and get the certificate b4 going for the visa interview.

PLS I need advice!!!!

TroGunn: She heads the ministry under which NNPC falls under. With all the rubbish going on there, the minimum any person with self worth would do is resign.

Reference: Nice way of aging various posters and contributors so we know those not worth responding to purely on account of immaturity.

كلورين: Oh shoot! You mean if I get say a 24volt with about 200 steps stepper motor I can't get 7 out of it?
I wanted to use an inverter, so I use it to power an energy saving bulb. But decided not to, I haven't really decided yet what to use it to power, because that's not an issue, I can come up with anything at the end, its 12v from a battery.
Which motor would you suggest I get?

asunaobi: Hi sadiq! Good job...highly impressed with your logical thinking. Do you know that you can actually drive the same alternator we use in cars to charge our car batteries with the wind turbine you are building? I don't know but I think this may be the easiest way to go.
The car alternator generates 3phase AC voltages when the engine is running. The 3 phase ac is then rectified to Dc voltage. The dc voltage is then used to charge the car battery. There is a control ( contacts) to stop the overcharging of the battery...pls see an auto electrician for this.

The real wind turbine technology is a little bit complex because of the variations in the wind speed, because you would wan't your generated AC voltage to be kept at a constant frequency eg 50 HZ. I hope this helps? Let me know if further assistance is needed.

كلورين: Its wonderful, the high touque might be a little hinge, but I should be able to work though it. I can't use artificial source of wind, my lectures kicked against it, the deal is for me to mount it.
The only problem is I don't know what appliance it is gotten from, this geared motor of yours.
I think I have a new way I want the design to go, I just learnt about this doubler/mutiplier/boost converter today.
I am planing on using a stepper motor, produce some voltage then use the boost converter to take it up to 14volts.
I'll upload the pics for my new design

I'll like us to talk some more.
Thanks for your help.
