@deor03

he already said so few mins ago, agagu is already on his way to the appeal court,

This politicians are just useless. They don't just love the people they govern. He is set waste tax payer money to pursue the appeal now.

I still believe we need a JJ Rawlings in Nigeria. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO FORGIVE THESE PEOPLE

Bleep-NL:
Good!!

Now EFCC can do their job with Agagu, bloody thief!

trust, he would appeal to steal so more time. Just like the Edo governor is doing now

Sometime our leader behave as if GOD will come down to solve our problems,

Let them take example of what happened in the Telecommunications sector and transfer same to power sector. FG has stopped spending money in the Telecoms sector because it's now in the hands of the private sector.

I think that's is the best thing to do in the power sector too. Releasing 100 trillion to NEPA/PHCN will just create more thieves and more probes in future.

hmmmmmmmm

Sometimes i just imagine 

Having Babangida and Gideon Okar in the same room alone

Enjoy reading….



Guys, Just read this up,,

At times when u guys pass comments on bank's pay, u tend to make me laugh.
I am working in one of the banks, my bank is not in the top five yet but in the top ten.
Do not be deceived with all those paper pays and apart from that, HR policies of each of the banks differs

If you say Bank PHB is the highest paying you make me laugh. See they will just tell u the good part of it, they are leaving out the negatives.
Do you know that in the same Bank PHB, you only earn the percentage of the branch target that was met for that month? If you branch makes 75% in target and profitability, then you are going to earn 75% of your salary, be it business developers (marketers) or support guys (operations).

Entry level for 1ST BANK is 104k and it is a less stressful place to work. this is because they have cheap funds ---- monies of our great grandfathers who are dead & we are not even aware of (ie monies of the deads).The amalgamation of this funds over the decade makes 1st bank a big bank, thereby putting less stress on their biz developers. they are really being proactive and dynamic nowadays.

As for INTERCONTINENTAL BANK, nice pay but unsecured work. Don't be surprised if you get to work tomorrow morning and find that your colleague is under suspension for what could be treated as minor issues in other places. Sincerely, I don't know how their staff still manage to put up a SMILE despite the uncertainties that surrounds them.

Zenith pay is quite small at entry level but they usually promote across board unlike other places where promotion is based on performance. Zenith promotes you for your effort and also promotes at times for you to be geared to be like top performers though you're not performing very well. if you really want to learn the ethics and basics of banking, it is not the best place to start for a marketer because you will not know more than how to generate deposit. The other aspects of banking ie risk assets generation (credit packaging) will be virtually nil. It is a nice place to be with good and strong corporate image. They have a sound IT in place and their staff are proud of their Bank.

GT Bank is a very classy place to work. My problem with them, they have quite a sizeable number of contract staff as support. Their PS is cool too and your promotion is rest assured. Their staff are very distinct. Their staff are very proud of their bank too.

OCEANIC pays well too. It is roughly 90k at the beginning for 6months, before you are upgraded from PIT to AO and you start earning up to 156k in a month. I heard they also pay 87k as quarterly pay for entry level.
It is a bank that needs to pay more attention to the quality of staff they recruit, as well as their IT. More often than not, they are always having FINACLE DOWN TIME. At times the quality of staff recruited is a reflection of the organization. I tend to wonder if some of them tipped HR to be employed or maybe the people that are recruiting are recruiting people like them.

FCMB is a place I will rather advise entry level guys to start from because they will learn more within a short period of time. After acquiring the knowledge here, the sky is not even the limit again. Entry level is 160k per month before confirmation. Immediately you are confirmed, your monthly pay drops to 87k but the remaining part is paid as quarterly pay every three months. This is usually up to 220k. You also have access to 80k line of medical services. They have a superb IT  facility and their staff are highly knowledgeable. My problem with FCMB is their staff. They are usually not proud of their workplace and they have every cause to be though they have NICE T-SHIRT, ADVERT, PRODUCT, building. I love their lapel pin.

STANBIC IBTC is a lovely place to work too. entry level is up to 150k. It is another place I will recommend to starters to begin from because they will learn a lot from here. Their staff are cool.

Skye Bank -- entry level is 130k (not too sure). I heard they have a lot of contract staff too. I had an unpleasant experience wit some of their marketers last week and I promised myself if those are the caliber of people working in Skye, I will never work for them. They have a very good advert that won them into the hearts of Nigerians. I thought they dropped their standard wit that NEW HAKUNA MATATA ADVERT. They also need to improve their IT.

ACCESS BANK place a lot of emphasis on the quality they recruit. Though they have contract staff too, they all look well paid. Entry level is up to 120k. So I heard o.

ETB -- heard they pay well, but it is a one-man business that is not quoted on the stock market floor.

I don't know much about the following. ------ Fidelity, Eco, Unity, First Inland, Union


Be that as it may, banking sector is still one of the best place to work. It makes you couth and respected. You also meet people you would never have dreamt of meeting. In terms of pay, the Oil boys may be ahead initially but the problem is that they hardly get promoted unlike a banker that can become a BM within 4-5years whereas your friend in the oil sector is just about getting his 1st promotion and a time is coming when money might not be important again but positions. that is why you see people introducing themselves as Head of this and that while your friend in the oil industry is still saying yes sir to the same Oga he has been saying it to for 5 years.

Truly speaking, the best thing you can do for yourself is to be self employed.

I have read about bankers and I just can not help laughing at times. Banking is not all about marketing and begging for money. There are other technical depts. --- financial control, treasury, credit admin etc.

You never know how far until you're in the system.

This story reminds me of TELL's sensational stories of DIYA's coup innocence, despite the coup video released by Abacha showing Diya postrating.

This story looks more like a figment of someone's imagination.

It has a lot of disconnects , linking the deal to Italians, Americans and then British.

lucabrasi:
sensational journalism again,i wonder what some people's business is in print journalism,he didnt attack wole soyinka he only said he doesnt believe in intellectual millitancy
@poster
na wa for you as well why your post heading

I wonder oh. these guys just want to sell newspapers

TCUBE:
discentralise the police force

1) have city police

2) state police

3) have a somein like fbi

State Police??

That will be disaster, considering the level of indiscipline among our politicians.

I guess it is rather unfair to equate the Nigerian Election to what happened in Zimbabwe.

Though the Nigerian elections were rigged by all major parties involved, similar to the Bush/ Gore election, it is far from level of intimidation and imposition of Mugabe in Zimbabwe.

Also, the Yaradua election was challenged in the court of law, and it was found OK, based on whatever parameter used by the judges.

davidylan:
when is Waziri going after Babangida? I'm tired of all these "intense manhunts" that curiously seem to focus solely on people of southern Nigerian extraction.

I guess Gov Boatmang of Plateau State is one those people from the south

That is when we will see if "One Nigeria" was not "One oil"

@ Poster,
Just wondering, If peolpe could post pictures of some of this properties

@ Reason is that

Big Crimes are committed by Big People
Small Crimes are committed by Small People

And the Judges are Big people , and remember there is a saying that " Birds of thesame feather flock together"

It is said that FRSC, POLICE and LASTMA officials will be deployed to the 'site'

I just hope so

Guess what Surutu is telling Kamoru!!!

"It's  business time, robbing on the road for the next 8 weeks will be tooooo  lucrative"

Police, Police please wake up oh.
Because of the horrendous traffic that will be on Apongbon, petty thieves will have a field day.

Kobojunkie:
You finally confirm my post. Where exactly did I state that the claim was made by me?? Can you pull how you got from where the debate stated to the conclusions you made? Cause that is where the debate turned to just you being silly. Someone makes a statement, we then go on about how outrageous that is and you start off on your DEFENSIVE spree. Show me, better still don't bother!

I now know that you are silly enough, not to admit that you were wrong.
Go and learn how to debate issues, ok.

You stated clearly that people count money without machines, apparently mis interpreting what redchick wrote,
deor03,Mustay,Gbola and redchick all said you were wrong!!.

Guess who believes that s/he knows everything!!,

I pray they stay within the time-frame.

Nothing more than 8 weeks

gbola h:
No nigeria bank that hire people for couting morning in nigeria anymore.

RedHotChic:
banks in Naija use machines to count money but because of the value of our money and denominations, it becomes a big job to count over N10m. They still hire contract staff that count those money with the machines, haba. It's different in America because we operate a plastic economy here. You cannot see people carrying around over $2k @ a time. the only exception may be departmental stores and casinos that count theirs through a security company and lodge them in banks. Even the casinos still hire people that count money for them in America using the same machines.

@kobojunkie

I hope you have learnt something new today

Kobojunkie:
If you have no clue, don't assume we are all in the same boat as you are. Banks do hire people to count money and not all banks are online. Infact a lot more banks are offline as in still dealing the old way than there are banks that are up to date technology wise.

May I suggest that you stop believing you have Nigeria more figured out that others. That is a ridiculous way to debate.

What are you talking about precisesly.
Name one bank that you know in Nigeria that hires people to count money manually. How feasible or sensible is this counting 10 million Naira.
I have had transactions physically in Nigerian Banks in recent times and i know exactly what i am talking about

I rather suggest that you should stop believing you know Nigeria than most people on this forum.

You are spoiling for a fight, sorry to disappoint you. I won't give you one

@ Mustay et Kobojunkie

Fingers crossed

Let's wait for guyz in Naija to tell us what happens in the banks at home.

Kobojunkie:
Continue playing TWISTER, when you are done, we can get back to discussing what RedHotChic actually posted[b] as is[/b].

She was not in her right mind when she posted the above??

Ofcourse,.,.,.She was in her right mind, I guess you and mustay gave it a wrong interpretation

Kobojunkie:
Now you are just being silly. We are discussing MONEY COUNTERS and how the machine could provide a more efficient and effective solution for banks. Please stay on Topic. WHat has the teller ,opening accounts and all to do with this??

By the way,

a) you can open an account online.
b) You can even make deposits without actually walking into banks and there are machines that can read checks.
c) Machines do check for counterfeits
d) Machines can check if you mix 500 and 1000.

In Nigeria, just like every part of the world. Money counter machines does only one job i.e. Count Money.
I am sure you guys think, when someone mentioned said bank employ people, you think they count the money with their hands.
The just operate the machines and punch in the figures into your account. More or less Money Counter Machines Operators.

Kobojunkie:
Now you are just being silly. We are discussing MONEY COUNTERS and how the machine could provide a more efficient and effective solution for banks. Please stay on Topic.

I don't appreciate that. you could articulate your points without using word like that, ok

Mustay:
So after these machines
[img]http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:V69PYug_CL35TM:http://www.bellcon.com/Products/CF-200/cf-200.jpg[/img]
count the money, the banks are still foolish enough someone who will cross-check se?

Does the machine collect your Teller from you?
Does the machine open your account details  on the computer and punch in the figures?
Does the machine check for counterfeit Notes
Does the machine Check if you mix, 500 and 1000 Notes

Common guys, There is no where in the world that machine does this.
Nigerians abroad sha!!!

ayinba1:
Please that guy does not even look like Yoruba.

lol
Maybe he is an expatriate from another tribe

Kobojunkie:
hhhm, have you ever seen one of those machines?? You don't need to HIRE someone to count money when you have one of those. Try googling information on money counting machines.

No, I have not. Besides i just checked on google now, all the machines i saw are the types in Nigerian Banks. The for your info, since Nigerian economy is still Cash dominated, people go to banks with Bags of Cash ( Ghana-must-go).

Check the auto section, you will notice the price of those cars, I tell you that they are all paid for in Cash. The moneys are banked, and must be counted.

@ Topic

Afenefere must be joking!!, To look at it from 2 angles.

1. Logical Factor : It is illogical for him to resign because if he does, EFCC will arrest him immediately since he enjoys NO immunity.
2. Nigerian Factor: It is also UNNigerian for him to resign, it has never been done in Naija. Even when Oyinbo people come to Nigeria and mess up they don't resign not to talk of a proper university of Amala politics graduate
