Lol don't be such a dumbass. She simply wants a man who has seen it all because she believes he can be calm and loyal. But one who's still "innocent" will want to "explore" and play around.

I don't blame her though. Men are the same.

PoliticsRe: What Is The Fastest Way To Rise In Rank In The Nigerian Army? by eddyroyal(m): 11:20am On Jul 29, 2016
ehissi:
I have seen a lot of mis-information so far reviewing this thread - the bulk of it I deem un-intentional while the rest is just plain comedy - the errors/misinformation are largely based on what is called "The Standard" in a Nigerian military environ.

"The Standard" refers to the terms and conditions of services as well as the bulk of what is contained in the armed forces act of 1990.

There is also a social terminology in military environments called "The General Idea"!

The General Idea is just the actual realities that exists in the military that are a deviation from the standard condition of service but are still covered by the armed forces act in some way!!

An example;

According to the conditions of service, DSSC are deemed non-combatant officers (or professional officers) that are suited for administrative purposes and are not meant for actual warfare - this is The Standard !!

The General Idea is that DSSC Officers and Soldiers undergo the same training, in the first cycle of Recruitment called the BMTC -Basic Military Training Course - which runs for 6months, also the Armed forces act allows ample room for the Chief of any military arm to use personnel for any purpose in the event of a security situation.

Therefore, DSSC officers can be deemed prepared to face combat immediately after they are commissioned (since both they and soldiers do the BMTC and soldiers are deemed combat ready).

They are not only sent into combat, but are also drafted into the Infantry division/corps of the Army as well as the airforce (The airforce call their own infantry wing/corps regiment/air crew).

From experience, people who may fall into this category are usually very tall or buffy/muscular looking in appearance and have an appearance that seems to command attention physically!!!! I know many of such cases mathematician, accountants etc who were guilty of looking too gallant for the office and so they were drafted into infantry immediately - even though they came through DSSC.

Now DSSC training is 6/7 months, for those who are drafted into Infantry/regiment from DSSC, because DSSC does not cover in its entirety infantry/regiment related training they are sent for further training courses - 100% of the time overseas to countries like belarus, israel etc- to help them fit into the Infantry division/corps better!!

But for DSSC officers that are sent to combat, but are members of a corps/department outside the infantry, nothing for them; highest they will be briefed by their new CO's (or officers under the authority of their CO's) or much more experienced officers in there respective units on what is expected from them in the course of combat!!

Another Example;
All officers whether they came in through the RC of the NDA or the DSSC or SSC can attain the rank of a 2-Star general or VSO (Major-general, Air -vice Marshal, Rear Admiral for army, airforce and navy) - this is the standard!!

The General Idea is that DSSC are deemed (no matter the amount of training you want to give them or the corps you put them) not in a position to command troops at an "executive" level - this is by reason of the Armed forces law!!

This why no STF/JTF commander or service chiefs within the individual armed forces like The GOC's, FOC's or the AOC for army navy and airforce will be a DSSC officer - no matter how many training or war you make the DSSC officer fight.

Also the VSO, Very Senior Officer's Ranks (which is from Colonel upwards in army, Captain upwards in Navy, Group captain upwards in Airforce) have limited slot (which usually must be filled with equity and federal character in mind; though this is not always the case).

Also these are usually the recommended ranks approved by the Armed forces council and the respected councils of the individual armed forces for officers to hold who must command troops at certain executive levels as well as for certain strategic appointments!!

Because of the current size and capacity of our military, what usually happens is that you may have 400 people due for the rank of Colonel; 110 are RC, regular commission (either through NDA or SSC) while 290 are from DSSC and the appointment requiring executive command of troop throughout the army at the level of colonel are 60; the ones that don't require this are 20; so how do they promote!!

The DSSC will always get the short end of the stick and it gets tighter at higher ranks like brigadier general and Major general!!

Plus the bulk of the offices at the level
of Major General require executive command of troops; the ones that don't, will be filled by officers who enjoy sympathy of their colleagues and coursemates that went through the NDA - who hold executive appointments within the military - so because of this, the usual last bus-stop of DSSC officers is Brigadier General - and that is with Favour with both men and God!! Usually Lieutenant Colonel and Colonel is the where most DSSC officers are retired!!

The Standard says DSSC can achieve Major-General but the General Idea is that the last bus stop is Brigadier General!!!

This is where people make mistakes about the military; looking at recruitment related documents most times display the standard, the general idea can only be seen on ground! Either by living in an military environment and carefully observing things like military orders at Provost/MP's, asking question amongst friends/family who are personnel or even taking up a casual Job at a military installation or being a personnel yourself!!
The current chief of Air staff passed through DSSC.

I dont understand, so because he asked you out you should just be collecting? You won't surprise him with gifts or pay for dinner once in a while? This is why guys keep shading ladies on this forum, you present yourselves as leeches.
Bless you dear,you're on point. Seriously,i don't know why ladies do have this conviction that it is the responsibility of a guy to do everything in a relationship. Forgetting that they also have roles to play for the betterment of the relationship which is Not just by cooking,washing of clothes,and sex. But at least once in a while try to surprise him with gifts,even pay for meals atimes when you guys are out eating. It helps build relationships.

Fraudsters how?
As a matter of fact, that envelope has been shared in provinces,Zones,Areas,and parishes under REGION 14 (UYO) for two weeks now or more than. So,are they trying to tell me that it was fraudsters that came into the church and shared those envelopes?
Did the pastors -in-charge-of the provinces acted on their own without being directed by the PASTOR IN-CHARGE OF THE REGION? And did the pastors in-charge-of the Zones acted without being directed by the Pastor in charge of the province. Same with Area and Parish pastors. Or, are they trying to say that someone impersonated the PASTOR IN CHARGE OF THE REGION huh

Bro thanks so much for the info. Before now i did not know that Air Marshall Sadiq Abubakar is not a product of NDA. Thanks once again for the clarification. It has really motivated me.

capitalism,socialism and communism all have advantages and disadvantages..what you should be saying is the Nigerian govt should play its supervisory role well in capitalism after all there are strong countries in the world that practice it...heck the china people talk about is only communist in politics but largely capitalistic ( state sponsored though) in economy..Nigeria has tried in govt running businesses and failed woefully left,right and center.
In capitalism government has no role to play in the market system,it is the forces of demand and supply that determine the prices of commodities.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Set To Fully Deregulate Downstream, Petrol To Sell For Over N100 A Litre by eddyroyal(m):
asha80:
what do you mean by that statement and back it up with facts
When someone talks about"the forces of demand and supply determining the prices of commodities"he/she is referring to one of the characteristics of Capitalism. Adam Smith who is the leading proponent to this economic system stressed that Government should concentrate on it primary role which is the maintenance of peace and order and,allow the forces of demand and supply ( ais also known as 'the invincible hand') determine the prices of commodities. One of the disadvantage of capitalism is that private owners of companies who are called capitalist by political economist are interested in maximizing their profits. This is done to the detriment of the poor masses. Some of us think that capitalism is a good thing. We have this conviction that when the forces of demand and supply determine the prices of commodities,the poor masses will benefit. This notion is a total fallacy. There are some questions we need to ask when talking about the forces of demand and supply determining the prices of commodities. Some of this questions among others are (1)For how long will it take the forces of demand and supply to determine the prices of commodities?(2)When this price is finally determine by this forces,will it be favorable for a common man? For instance if the price of fuel is pegged at N400 by the forces of demand and supply,will the poor masses be able to afford this.
