Obviously, this unfortunate incident look exactly like a well planned and well executed robbery operation by professionals as seen from the footage.

1. Leadership Commitment
I have worked with many organizations and figured out that the most important element in safety is the commitment from top leadership, without leadership’s commitment, no organization can achieve the level of safety they desire for. It gives employees a sense of responsibility when they see their leader preaching and practicing safety in every aspect of business.
In any organization, it is always the leadership who drives the cultural change by inspiring and influencing other employees with their actions and
Felt Leadership . Many leaders show their commitment but gets in conflict when rest of the employees see their actions and words are not aligned, in simple words, they do not walk the talk.


2. Understand your employee’s Mindset & Behavior.
Many organizations have safety improvement initiatives in place that helps them monitor their employee’s safe and unsafe acts; one way is to develop a behavior-based safety program. All these improvement initiatives will just turn useless if you don’t understand what is going on behind the brains of your employees,
why people do what they do? What drives their actions? What are their values, beliefs, and attitude? The answer to these questions lies in cognitive human psychology. The approach towards improving safety nowadays has stepped beyond behavior-based safety, organizations now conduct Values, Attitudes and Beliefs (VAB) study to understand their employees better and work it around. Each individual has his/her on values and beliefs, once you understand them; it will be much easier for you to connect with your employees. (Learned from DuPont)


3. Make your employees accountable for Safety.
Safety is not just leadership’s responsibility, it is everyone’s responsibility. Employees at all levels should understand their role in safety and participate in safety improvement initiatives. Leadership should hold employees accountable for non-performance or engaging in unsafe acts.
All employees must understand that the ultimate goal of implementing safety rules is to save lives, and at the end of the day it is beneficial to them, no one else. I have never in my career seen a person who tells me, tonight, I want to go home with a broken arm, which means people do understand that safety is good for their health but still needs someone to re-enforce rules.


4. Understand, analyze and eliminate risks involved in the process, technology and facility.
Many leaders ask me this question; our employees have the real sense of personal safety, why do they still get hurt? Well, if you’re employees are well-committed to personal safety but still getting hurt, than there must be something wrong with the process, technology, or the facility they operate in.
This is one area that can be addressed by a well-balanced Process Safety Management program. Many organizations just perform a HAZOP of PHA study and feels they have completed their compliance obligation. Process Safety is much broader than just HAZOP or PHA. It contains 14-elements that help organizations completely eliminate hazards from any operations, such as; PSSR, Mechanical Integrity, Incident Investigation, Emergency Response and Planning, Management of Change etc.


5. Too many improvement initiatives? Integrate them.
If you’re an organization with too many improvement initiatives, you might find your employees telling each other, I have too much on my plate and can’t focus at my ultimate role.
When an organization adopts different programs from different consulting firms, it sometimes creates confusion too, because all these programs carry different approaches towards safety. To align your approach with your vision, you need to integrate these approaches and develop one integrated system that allows employees to speak one language. All you need is one safety system that is aligned with organization's vision.


6. Have a well-trained incident investigation team.
I have seen many incident investigation reports, in many cases; the findings or root cause is way too far from the reality. Safety personnel need to understand the importance of the real and accurate findings, because these findings will eventually help the organization solve the real problem. Moreover, an incomplete or inaccurate report can lead us to a direction that has nothing to do with reality, and eventually waste of time.
In many cases, we perform the why-tree analysis , blame the employee and close the case. In my experience, if we dig a bit more, we will find the real problem. For example, an employee was rushing to finish his job before the end of the shift and got himself hurt on the machine. The team investigated and blamed the employee for the incident; however, no one noticed why was he actually rushing? Whereas his supervisor has given him a heavy production goal to achieve before the end of his shift and he was trying to achieve that goal. So, what was the root cause here?


7. Make use of technology; get a Safety Management System in place.
If an organization in today’s technological world tells me that they still use those old school Microsoft Excel data sheets to monitor and track their progress on safety, my advice to them will be to get a Safety Management System, it’s worth spending some cash for the value it provides. Your time worth millions that can be spent on other important activities rather entering data manually into excel sheets.
A Safety Management System can make your life easier in many ways, it helps you automate the whole process, all your safety policies and programs gets into one integrated system, your employees know where exactly they can find information they need, your leaders know what reports they need to look into, it helps you track progress in a timely manner and you don’t need to run over half a million files in your computer to look for one policy. It’s all there, just one click away.


8. Recognize and reward employees for their contribution to safety.
Ever wonder what a motivated employee can contribute to your organization? Recognizing and rewarding your employees is another key area that can lead to success. Many organizations turn strict on their employees for unsafe activities; some even get to the extent where they fire them. This will only create fear among them, and they will only follow rules because they are asked to, not because they want to. This is what distinguishes compliance from commitment.
What I have seen in organization with world-class safety culture is different, they motivate and reward their employees with safe behavior in such a way that inspire others and eventually change their behavior towards safety too. Many times, companies reward their employees with cash, but this has a negatives impact too. Too much of cash rewards can encourage employees to hide the real facts because they want to win cash.


9. Train your employees regularly on safety.
Even your best people need a refresher after some time to keep them on track. The best way people learn in any organization is through its culture, but again, your employees at some point will turn complacent at their job and complacency is the most dangerous form of hazard. Refresher training can teach them some new techniques on how to be safe at work, plus it will remind them of their role in safety.

At the end of the day, safety is all about care, saving lives, families, and the society we operate in.

​Atletico Madrid striker Antoine Griezmann is understood to have verbally agreed both his shirt number and weekly wages with Manchester United, according to reports in the ​Independent.

The Frenchman has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford and it is widely expected that he will complete what could be a world record transfer to United in the summer.

Griezmann is understood to be keen on completing the move to Manchester and is also excited about the prospect of linking up with fellow compatriot Paul Pogba, who himself signed for the Red Devils last summer for a world record £89m.

The independent report that the talks between the player's representatives and United have been ongoing for some time and that part of an agreement has already been made verbally, with Griezmann's shirt number and wages already decided.

Talk of such an agreement has seen some bookies refuse to offer odds on the move, but whilst a deal in the future seems increasingly likely, one possible complication may be the situation at the French international's current club, who are currently fighting a transfer ban imposed on them by FIFA.

The one-year transfer embargo means that Atletico are unable to sign any new players next summer and should they lose their appeal against the ban, Griezmann's move to Old Trafford could be placed in serious jeopardy as the Spanish club would be unwilling to lose such a valuable player without the prospect of replacing him.

Despite the uncertainty, the La Liga side are rumoured to be keeping a close eye on Diego Costa's situation at Chelsea and should they have their transfer ban lifted, Griezmann's departure would likely see them prioritise resigning the unsettled striker.

Davido again.


BTW, Wetin person no go see for this naija.... someone called me dat am supposed to pay him because we were paired ....... I told him I am not a member of MMM or twinkas and he said bros pls send anything you have, na God pair us not MMM. Lol.

Good morning guys.

Demonicide:
how long will it take them to contact me? hope it doesn't take much time.

Nah. Their recruitment process is pretty fast.

Demonicide:
I went for an interview there last week am yet to receive a call from them.

If you are successful, you will be contacted via mail and a phone call.

That's a red flag.

When Mavrodi Mondial Movement (MMM) came to Nigeria in 2016, many believed that an end has come to our sufferings as a nation!!! Some participants who didn’t know its full meaning called it “Money Making Machine” without thinking that one day, the machine will break down and start printing fake notes & frozen mavros!!! Some even claimed that the All Promises Compromised (APC) government brought MMM to help Nigerians.

Words like mavro(MMM money), POP(Proof Of Payment), PO(Personal Offfice),PH (Provide Help), GH (Get Help), etc, became so popular on the streets that at a point in time, I was almost tempted to PH “eba” so I could GH “egusi soup” Nigerians, registered with the aim of receiving 30% interest after one month. Nobody asked where MMM gets the 30% from. Collectively, we were interested in getting “free money” forgetting that whenever your pastor prophesize “miracle money” into your life, you must pay your “tithe” before you can qualify as a “runner-up” for such a divine encounter!


The scheme was going on well, then suddenly, on the 12th day in the month of December 2016, mavrodians (MMM participants) got a shocker; they couldn’t neither PH nor GH!!! It was as if rapture had taken place. There was a nation-wide panic…..everyone was calling on the God of Shiloh believing that their “cases were different” but to no avail. Come to think of it, when you were PHing, did you consult the God of Shiloh; so why disturb HIM now when you cannot GH?


The prophets of MMM (guilders) prophesized that January 14th, PHing & GHing activities will resume. What mavrodians failed to realize was that “matching activity” was not part of the prophecy. Right now, all MMM participants are like the disciples of Jesus Christ who were patiently waiting in the upper room to be matched with the Holy Spirit!

How can Guardiola's Man City lose 4-0 to Everton FC? How can?

I am now convinced that Arsenal FC have succeeded in transferring the "Abiku" syndrome to Manchester City FC. "Abiku" is someone that's comes and goes. "Abiku" syndrome causes one or a team to be inconsistent; up today, down tomorrow.

Rumours have it that Guardiola caught the Abiku syndrome when he had a Champagne meeting with Arsene Wenger.

Wenger had tried severally to infest Mourinho with the Syndrome but Mourinho declined. This is the reason for the face off between the duo.

Pogba will score today sha,... but that will be after full time.

Nice one.
So he already knows how to drive at 1?

The lady allegedly responsible for the trouble in Tonto Dikeh’s marriage has been unveiled.

Tonto’s husband is alleged to be romantically linked with a Nollywood actress Rosaline Meure.

8. Ayo Oritsejafor, World of Life Bible Church.

Daniel Kolawole Olukoya, Mountain of Fire and Miracles (MFM)

Reports had filtered in on Saturday, January 7, that Pastor Enoch Adeboye has retired as the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Nigeria.

This new decision was informed by a new policy in line with legal requirements set up by the Financial Regulations Council, guiding all registered churches, mosques, and CSOs.

Pastor Joseph Obayemi was announced as the new National Overseer of the body, a position which was hitherto held by Pastor Adeboye.

Amid the confusion trailing the purported resignation of Pastor Adeboye, Naij.com has made a list of 9 top men of God who are due to retire:

1. Bishop David Oyedepo, Winners Chapel.

Born on September 27, 1954, in Osogbo, Bishop Oyedepo, was raised in a mixed religious family. His father, Ibrahim, was a Muslim healer. His mother, Dorcas, was a member of the Eternal Order of the Cherubim and Seraphim Movement (C&S), a branch of the Aladura movement in Nigeria.

Oyedepo got born again in 1969, through the influence of his teacher, Betty Lasher, who took special interest in him during his high school days.

He claimed to have received a mandate from God through an 18-hour vision in May 1981, to liberate the world from all oppression of the devil through the preaching of the word of faith.

This is the inaugural vision that led to the founding of the Living Faith Church World Wide (LFCWW), first called Liberation Faith Hour Ministries, in 1981. Two years later, on September 17, 1983, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, former General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, ordained him and his wife, Florence Abiola Akano (known now as Faith Abiola Oyedepo) to become pastors and officially commissioned the new church.



2. William Folorunsho Kumuyi, Deeper Life Bible Church.
Pastor William Folorunsho Ikumuyiwa, popularly known as W.F Kumuyi was a former Anglican who joined the Apostolic Faith Church after his baptism.

In 1975, he was expelled from the church for preaching without credentials. He continued his independent ministry, which in 1982 became the Deeper Life Bible Church. By the early 1980s that small group had grown to several thousand, at which time Deeper Life Bible Church was formally established.

The church has spread throughout sub-Saharan Africa and then to the United Kingdom, from where branches were developed in western Europe, Russia, India, and North America. Already, the soft-spoken preacher has spent 35 years as leader of the church.



3. Lazarus Mouka, Lord Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries

He is the founder and General Overseer of The Lord's Chosen Charismatic Revival Movement.

Lazarus Muoka was born into a Catholic family in Mgbidi in Imo State where he went on to finish his primary and secondary school education. In 1975, he moved into Lagos and worked for some time under a company before starting up his own business which he did until he gave his life to Christ as a full Christian.

Lazaraus Muoka claimed to have had many dreams from God in 1994 prompting him to pull out from the church he was serving as a pastor and set up his own church. Shortly after pulling out, he set up The Lord's Chosen Charismatic Revival Movement with the aim of “preaching the undiluted word of God”



4. Mike Okonkwo, The Redeemed Evangelical Mission (TREM)

Dr. Mike Okonkwo MFR the Presiding Bishop of TREM was born on September 6, 1945 to the family of Pa and Ma Okonkwo of Ogbunike in Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra State.

Okonkwo graduated from the Morris Cerrullo School of Ministry and the Covington Theological Seminary in USA, and holds several doctorate degrees and honorary awards.

After receiving a call from God into full time ministry, he was consecrated the Bishop of The Redeemed Evangelical Mission (TREM) on the 7th of May 1988. He has clocked 28 years as the head of the ministry.



5. Daniel Kolawole Olukoya, Mountain of Fire and Miracles (MFM)

Daniel Olukoya was born in Akure, Ondo state to a police officer and his wife, a trader.

He founded the Mountain of Fire Ministries in July 1989 in his sitting room with only 25 people in attendance. Today the church has had a massive growth and expansion with thousands of members and branches spread all over Nigeria and Europe and Africa.

Pastor Olukoya has written many spiritual books and composed over 70 Christian songs.


7. Matthew Ashimolowo, Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC)

Matthew Ashimolowo who was born in Kaduna on March 17 1952 is the Senior Pastor of Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) in London.

Born to Muslim parents, Ashimolowo converted to Christianity at the age of 20 after the death of his father before enrolling with a Bible school.

After Bible school, he began as an assistant Pastor in Foursquare Gospel church, after which he was moved to the UK, where he started his own ministry.

It was in London that he left the Four Square to start his own church, Kingsway International Christian Church in a school hall in North London with only 11 members.


8. Ayo Oritsejafor, World of Life Bible Church

Pastor Oritsejafor the founding and Senior Pastor of Word of Life Bible Church, was born on November 10, into the family of Joseph Monday Oritsejafor and Roli Durojaiye Oritsejafor in Lagos, Nigeria.

Almost immediately, he felt the call of God upon his life and enrolled in the New Covenant Bible Institute, Benin City, Nigeria.

He later enrolled with the Nigerian Baptist Seminary, Ogbomosho in Oyo State, Nigeria and later proceeded in 1979 to the United States for further studies at Morris Cerullo's School of Ministry (El Cortez), San Diego, California.

"As you invest and create other streams of income, you would rely less on honorarium and LOVE offerings. And be able to do more for your music" - Nathaniel Bassey

These were the exact words of one of Nigeria's most inspiring and successful gospel music ministers on Twitter in the morning of January 3rd, 2017. It breaks my heart to see a lot of young music artistes going into gospel music for the wrong reasons.

Some gospel artistes spend their energy everyday talking about how Timaya and WizKid and the likes make money from music because they understand the music business and they compare themselves with the secular artistes and criticise the body of Christ for not paying them so well. I wish they can understand that Music ministry is just like any other ministry of the gospel, be it pastoral, evangelical etc. Gospel music ministry is not a business, it's a call to serve with the gift God placed in you.

Some Gospel artistes will ask me "ok, if it's not business how do we foot our bills?" The truth is this thing is a spiritual thing, it may not make sense to lots of people. If you have been genuinely called by God into the music ministry and you are practically following his lead and instructions, God will bless your ministry beyond your widest imaginations. The problem is some people were not called, they only took the call upon themselves. So many of us watched Frank Edwards interview online, of how God started blessing him. How a woman that was blessed by his music dashed him a house and lots of other testimonies he shared.

If you have been called into the music ministry, I mean genuinely called, please stop going about criticising the church for not paying you good hononariums, focus on doing the will of him who called you. He will bless you beyond your dreams. Gospel music is not a business, it's a call to ministry. To church leaders I also want to encourage you to take good care of the people God uses their gifts to be a blessing to the body of Christ.

For those who may not agree with me, go and argue with Nathaniel Bassey.

So ant dey get bow leg?
Na wa o.

I see Chelsea fans everywhere. Una well done o.

Actually, the Match will be difficult to predict. So far so good, both sides are doing well.


EPL is a unique league. Imagine Chelsea has won straight 13 matches yet they top by just 5 points, while united has won straight 6 matches yet they remain in the same position 6th.

nairaland always posting fake news without verifying.

Anyone providing information to the public should seek to ensure accuracy to maintain credibility.

Very good news.

Shame to bad people.

A simple fact that is hard to learn is that the time to save money is when you have some.

Though we have different priorities.

sexymoma:
Sex before marriage: every weekend
Sex after marriage: thrice in a year, Easter, wedding anniversary, Christmas...then if the hubby is lucky on his birthday..probably.

That's not true. Infact, you are very far from the truth.


In my opinion, it's obvious that married people have more sex than single people. It makes sense. And again, Married people have a potential sexual partner in bed with them every night. Singles often sleep alone.


But sex appears to declines further as couples get older.

14. “Things won’t ever change between us”


Whoever thinks things don’t change the minute someone gets married is completely wrong. Married life is not what it looks from the outside. It may not show straight away, but over time things definitely start shifting.
