It won't break. The man will have to bend last last. She can't be crying at home without being proactive. She should get the job and they can take it up from there. Let him go and tell the world that he wants to divorce his wife because she's working and see whether they won't laugh at him.

And what makes you think such decisions against the man's wish will not later break the union?
My dear, I won't ask you to be a full-time house wife since its not your thing, your parents especially your mother advised you well if you ask me, because the only way to man's heart is to fully respect his authority anything other than this will definitely not work, remember you can't have two captains in a ship. Lastly, find a way to talk things over with him, don't say it like you're competing with his authority to make final decisions in the family, if he refuses whenever you talk about it politely, you're a woman, use your feminism, but always give him that feeling that you're under his authority but that you really wish to work.

I just pity the jobless ones that still believes in your rubbish. Didn't visit the thread for 4 months only to come and see all the lies and deceits you have been giving to this people. I'm in a better place guy, with a better life and great job.so DPR is just an option for me and ain't a priority. To douse doubt, let's show face in any location of your choice and see who is bitter?

Why are you taking panadol for other people's headache, why not allow them to think for themselves? I believe Marvel is right to say that you're bitter otherwise I don't see any reason why some of you still bother yourselves with this thread and those who are deceived or not. Pls allow it to be the headache of the "deceived hopefuls" whether they are deceived or not and do not in anyway take it personal.

So what has Oshiomole as APC National Chairman got to do with the victories in Bayelsa and Logo States, was he not there when the APC lost Rivers, Zamfara, Bauchi, Oyo, Adamawa and IMO States? Every politics is local and elections are won and lost based on mainly local interest of major players and stakeholders. Where they fail to agree, the opposition takes swift advantage and it becomes like one man has performed too many magics because even the Federal might can never work in a vacuum, someone local power brokers must agree for it to work.

*Akpabio, the Senate and the Niger Delta*

This must be a very challenging time for the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akapbio. As a governor, he was used to working without being challenged but not this time since he has the Presidency to report as well as the National Assembly which oversees the activities of his Ministry.

The inauguration of an Interim Management Committee (IMC) for the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) by the Minister, who has been mandated by the Presidency to oversee the Commission, may have put the Minister at loggerheads with his former colleagues at the Senate.

The President of the Nigerian Senate, Senator Ahmed Lawan, had during the confirmation of the nominees for the NDDC board, stated that the new board should start work immediately as an IMC was unknown to the Act establishing the NDDC. The directive by the Senate President that the new Board should commence work immediately sounded like a legislator trying to take over the function of the Executive, even when the Board in question has not been inaugurated by the Presidency.

The comments made by the Minority leader, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe that the Senate had done its work and that it was the business of the Executive to decide whether or not to play basket ball with the NDDC matter, was very profound. It is common knowledge that the duty of the Senate should begin and end with legislative and oversight functions.

Interestingly, as the Senate was confirming the NDDC nominees, the IMC already inaugurated by the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, was busy letting Nigerians know the huge rot in the Commission.

According to Cairo Ojougboh, the Acting Executive Director of Projects of the NDDC, a Serving Senator who was also a member of the Senate Committee on the NDDC was awarded 300 contracts out of which 120 had been fully paid for even when the Senator was yet to mobilise to any of the sites. He added that the NDDC was owing contractors over N3 trillion. Curiously, Ojougboh has cause to believe that the contractors are phantom contractors and this also makes him believe that the particular Senator involved with the 300 contracts must be behind a campaign of calumny against the IMC which, according to the Senator Akpabio received the blessings of Mr President.

President Buhari apparently had a mindset when he said he would wait for the report of the forensic audit before revisiting the organisation being the NDDC. It stands to reason that the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs may be on the right path after all. Truth be told. The way and manner the list containing the names of nominees for the NDDC board was sent to the Senate and speed with which the Senate screened and confirmed the nominees and directed that they should work immediately seem not ordinary.

With all these drama happening, this writer who is from one of the states covered by the NDDC is perplexed that there is not so much support yet for the IMC, that has just directed the stoppage of the payment of a whopping N1 billion monthly payment to a Consultancy firm whose only job is to collect money from International Oil Companies (IOCs) on behalf of the NDDC. The obvious implication of this is that the NDDC will have N12 billion naira yearly that can execute so many projects in the Niger Delta region.

Could this be another case of corruption fighting back. In the words of Mr President, " I try to follow the act setting up these institutions especially, the NDDC. With the amount of money that the Federal Government has religiously allocated to the NDDC, we will like to see the results on the ground; those that are responsible for that have to explain certain issues.
" The projects said to have been done must be verifiable. You just cannot say you spent so many billions and when the place is visited, one cannot see the structures that have been done"

To lend credence to the concerns of Mr President, Ojougboh said that if we all had the opportunity of looking into the books of the NDDC that we would cry. There cannot be a better way of describing the rot in the NDDC. In the oil producing areas of Abia State, there is no credible project that can be attributed to the NDDC. There are no good roads as all NDDC roads wear off as they being tarred, no good hospital, no good primary or secondary school and no electricity. But take a trip to the area, you will have many projects abandoned by the NDDC including the ones it inherited from the the Oil Mineral Producing Areas Development Commission (OMPADEC) era. It is nearly twenty years that the NDDC was established, yet there is practically nothing to show for it in Ukwa West of Abia State where the oil wells are still producing luxuriantly. Meanwhile, many Nigerians, including some in the National Assembly, as has just been exposed, are living large by collecting contracts from the NDDC and not executing the contracts.

As the struggle for the legality of actions between the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs and the Senate continues, the Presidency must not forget that the fate of the Niger Delta is the subject of the discussion here and the youths in the Niger Delta are watching.

The IMC should be allowed to continue their work as the forensic auditors get ready to join them if they have not joined them yet.

38. We shall also sustain our efforts in managing personnel costs. Accordingly, I have directed the stoppage of the salary of any Federal Government staff that is not captured on the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) platform by the end of October 2019. All agencies must obtain the necessary approvals before embarking on any fresh recruitment and any contraventions of these directives shall attract severe sanctions.

With this said, I think if nothing is done by the end of this month, that means bye-bye to the recruitment for now.

Girls can form, sleep on mat and come out to claim I can't sleep on a foam that's on bare floor.

With what I'm reading here, it means all these women saying no, laye laye, have already conceded their eternal status as LIABILITIES. So the women themselves can are also without a tangible life to impact on their partners other than to come and become pests. NB:Do not believe everything you read or see on social media, some do worst shot in real life but post the opposite on social media. They only let you see what they want you to see and not the real deal is.

The person I who did the second graphic is very creative, I love his sense of creativity. thumbs �

It's not a scam at all, I got same message xday but couldn't find it, but this morning, I saw the 200mb full, and I've exhausted it already because mine was meant to expire by tomorrow. Thank you AirtelNg but your bonus these days is diminishing on personal second intervals. Pls what is going on.

Got same message but it's not working.

And the lifespan of these projects was built exactly to start collapsing immediately Rochas leaves office?

MC Galaxy, no man enjoys to see people around him suffer not to talk of his wife and children, instead of your advice, I think you should be canvasing for good governance and buoyant economy that will insure that Nigerian citizens don't suffer unnecessarily.

The major reason for your kind of mentality is because in Nigeria, to have a good three meals a day is a luxury, a country with the most brilliant, hardworking and smart people in the world but not conducive environment or support for them to thrive thereby breeding all of forms mediocre theories like this your own.

I pray for Nigeria to get well, I hate the mentality we are breeding these days about money. in case you don't know, a lot of families today are being run and sponsored by women and in most cases unless you're told, you won't know. "SAY YOUT HUSTLE PAY, NO MEAN SAY OTHERS LAZY"

This will be called Professors in politics.

Civilization will not only mean that ladies can rock their trousers without humiliation, or their bum shorts, we are gradually realising that there's not private in any part of the human body after all. Besides, I think it's because of the way this thing is being packaged that's why it's usually a big whenever our eyes sees some part another person's unclothedness, if everybody will start doing like Toyin, you'll see that nobody will have time for your nude when it's open.

Her life, her business

calculator123:
His stupid persistence put us in this wahala that we are now. Somethings are not meant to be.

Call it whatever you want, that obviously won't remove the fact that he kept the faith in what he wants and his convictions and today he's doing a second term as the elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Amakavula:
We all know what Happened. Besides look at the man, he can't even look at the camera right, the uneducated Igbo man( obviously someone with self esteem issues) He is someone who can't grow but rather stay infatuated for years, poor fella.

International slay queen, how's it your business, leave them to live their local life while you live your exquisite international life. Amibo.

Donaldsureodds:
Check out

We've seen it, so how may we help you?

Wetin concern una? simple congratulations to them una no fit tell them, una don bad mouth the poor lady and her man marriage already.

May be your assertions might be correct but at least the guy knows what he wants and he waited for it and the lady too might have also realized the need to give the Bobo a chance and today they both have a love story to tell. Our President had to wait for more than 12years of consistent trying to win what he wanted.
Congratulations to you guys and HML in advance.

majamajic:
Pls remember me that his beautiful Igbo name, Pascal Ojigwe

Karibe

majamajic:
year dey run ooo

pls where's Pascal Ojigwe

I started playing midfield watching Pascal , too bad he didn't make it in football

He's doing very great and you won't believe how young he still looks.

No wonder we are were we are, when people said girl child education is a waste, some people will come and cry blue. invariably, what the clergy man is saying in simple term is that women are just like goats that a man will just acquire and keep it indoors to be feeding the goat who has nothing else to offer the owner other than reproducing, I use goats because cats and dogs are active and has some needs to meet.

Mr Clergy, for your information, women are becoming General Overseers like your papa, Presidents of Nations, captains of industries, Prime Ministers, heads of parliaments, heads of judiciary, Ambassadors, High Commissioners. to mention a few. Women are humans just like the men with unlimited potentials, and they ain't in any competition with their male folks, unless you're preaching to the women from disadvantaged hones, but before you do that, remember that there are also men from disadvantaged homes as well who need all the help too even though it's no longer news how many millionaire or even billionaire men today that can not write about their success stories without the women in their lives who gave them a ladder to climb on in their times of struggle and confusion trying to figure out what to do with their lives.
Finally, Stop preaching nonsense Mr Preacher and turning the society into some sort of mentally derailed environment.

People talk bullshit here always to the extent one wonders how old they are. "If you can't hustle here in Nigeria, you can't hustle abroad", who told you that? people make 3rd class and passes in school here only to go abroad and become the best in their classes, how many persons have being labeled dull and lazy brains only to travel out and become mega successful. The people talking here sound like some miserable fellows who will always want to drag everybody who does not live like them as " never do wells". Tomorrow now, when the same "househusband" becomes successful, same woman will not allow the airwaves to have peace with stories of "he abandoned his child". Rudeboy.....Reason with me, Davido....Fia

That's just the only thing you hear from these irresponsible ladies, sleep here, sleep there. Is this just what Nollywood is all about?

The vehicles always without number plates. hmmm

PhenomenalMorgan:
Do majority of the regions that play a key role in deciding eho leads us due to their huge numbers value good leadership!!
They dont even know what good leadership is like...
In their tiny minds the nomadic lifestyle they live with no exposure to standards of a good life is enough for them!

And what has happened in states without "nomadic lifestyles", have they fair any better?

Gec8:
After he once gave January as deadline and the lies caught up with him, now for clout he is giving them June as deadline when he fully well knows it’s game over. I’d reiterate that these ones will be here till December 2019 waiting and asking about a second batch.

"I'm in chains, you're in chains too, I'm a prisoner, you're a prisoner too, don't you think so Mr Jailer?" "I'll reiterate" that if there's anyone being fooled here by Marvel, it's you and your likes, because if I know what you know as you claim, I'd have long left the thread and never look back.

ademmy102:
There is no crime in saying the truth instead of you to tell them to move on now you are postponing it till June when you yourself know that there is no second batch. My fellow guys don't let anyone cajole you because nothing will happen in the month of June. Be expecting a replacement late this year but note that it won't be an open application.

You're beginning to sound like a broken record already dear.

sewhrdor:
MR MAVEL WHERE ARE YOU
WE ARE ALL EARS

It's not as if she doesn't concur, just that she's not a fan of the "predictions"

Marvel68:
Some special candidates were contacted a week before the 2019 budget was passed. They were called to replace those that failed to report.

Thx so much Marvel, so what's up the second batch, any info so far so good?

roman1755:
@107, you are right. I am an auditor in a federal college of education in the South West a. D I happen to have the salary scale from NISWC. The last minimum wage that took effect from 23rd March 2011 has an increment of around 900+naira only. The effect on people already earning above 30k will not be more than one thousand naira

Bros pls I'd like us to talk if you don't mind, send me a mail on ihemdyke@gmail.com, or you can let me know how to contact you thx.

Wetin dat one mean be say dia focus na on di smallest salary wey employers suppose pay dia workers.
"Dat one mean say no be evribodi go dey affected. Those wey dey earn pass 30k already go get flat increase," im tok.
"For 2011, everi civil servant wey dey earn above 18k get nine hundred naira increase and youth corpers get 10 percent of di minimum wage wey carri dia allowee go N19,800."
Wen our tori pesin ask am wetin di flat addition be dis time for di 2019 minimum wage review, im no gree tok.
"If to say we take pyramid approach, di cost for too high. Wetin we do na to take one shot for those wey dey above 30k. Those wey dey below 30k we bring dem come 30k. State and federal goment get dia own difference wey dem go torchlight," im add.
