Hello Edey2real

MIt is a professional masters for people who do not have computer science background but find themselves in IT or telecom environment.

Hope it helps.

Thanks, I really appreciate.

Hi @Kalan, I appreciate the work you are doing here but I would like to ask some questions.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Forestry & Wildlife Mgt from UNAAB, 5+yrs experience in the telecommunications industry with over 2yrs as a Microwave Radio Transmission & NOC Engr.

Is it possible for me study Msc in Information Technology or if it is PGD before Msc?

Thanks in anticipation.

Additional points to note

Listed figures are for professional, permanent staff, not contract staff or ETOPs (except otherwise stated).

Some figures represent net total with tax deductions, while some represent salary without tax deductions.

All values are for monthly pay (not annual).

Oil exploration companies pay at least N500,000 for entry level employees, while servicing companies pay at least N200,000.


Multinational oil companies pay according to global standards because their employees can be deployed to anywhere in the world. This explains why they pay the highest salaries.

Most bank employees don’t get to earn the figures listed because the figures are for professional staff, whereas 75% of bank staffs are contract staff who don’t earn up to one-third of the figures listed. So, don’t be surprised to know that most “bankers” don’t earn as much as the listed figures.


Aviation companies pay between N600,000 and N800,000.

Actual salaries may vary slightly depending on qualification and unit.

Most companies offering seemingly low salaries bolster their pay with juicy allowances.

Help us make this thread better

If you think some figures on this threas are wrong or outdated, kindly help us with the corrections (and provide proof!). Similarly, if you know the entry level salaries of some companies that are missing on this list, kindly let us know, and we’d be eager to add them to the list.

Ericsson don't pay such amount. Is that for claims or bonuses?

engineerboat:
You are getting it all wrong completely.

Have you for once ask yourself why all this distractions with nothing to show forth for it.

1. They need to go to Euro Bond and yiu are here accusing someone.
2. Nigerians want to know the whereabout of Mr. PRESIDENT and His well-being

Yet we are been distracted Daily

So every other things in the country should be left untouched because you want to see the president. And is the president missing?

I weep for my country. I million Buhari can not clean this country.

engineerboat:
Buhari media centre reasons abu

Did you bother to read it or you just decided to ignore it because it doesn't favour your stand.

People like you are the problem we have in this country not the ones stealing or mismanaging our resources because they are doing it knowing that they have people like you to back them up.

I don't support any politician but good governance.

It will be better you have such stance so that our country can be great again.

engineerboat:
Debunk this, then we can move forward.

Since all you have yo say does not have bearing with the write-up.

When you are ready with your debunk we can then continue

I suppose this is just your own opinion on the matter which doesn't make it the truth. Anybody can come up with a write up of his/her opinion but kindly go through the attached link and know the truth for yourself and the people following you.

EXCLUSIVE: Real Reasons President Jonathan Fired NNPC GMD, Andrew Yakubu

September 11, 2014 Bassey Udo


The immediate trigger for the sudden sack of erstwhile Group Managing Director, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Andrew Yakubu, is becoming clearer more than a month after Mr. Yakubu and some other top officials of the state oil company were replaced.

PREMIUM TIMES can authoritatively reveal that Mr. Yakubu, who spent two years in office, had to go after the Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, accused him of insubordination over the appointment of a new Managing Director for the upstream subsidiary of the NNPC, the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC).

Mr. Yakubu, who was appointed July 1, 2012, was the fourth GMD of NNPC in the about five-year reign of the minister.

This newspaper learnt that while the former NNPC boss made a case for an engineer with a sound technical background to be appointed for the company responsible for NNPC’s oil exploration and production operations, reliable presidency and industry sources say the minister wanted a lawyer she considered a loyalist.

Despite being a strategic arm of the corporation, the NPDC had remained without a substantive head for almost a year allegedly over the refusal of the NNPC management, led by Mr. Yakubu, to buckle under the Minister’s pressures.

Since coming on board as the GMD NNPC, Mr. Yakubu was said to have consistently resisted the proposal to appoint a non-technical person into the office, a development that constantly put him in the firing line as he crossed swords with Mrs. Alison-Madueke on several occasions.

Sources at the NNPC and the minister’s office, who spoke with PREMIUM TIMES on condition of anonymity for fear of being victimized, revealed that the appointment of the Managing Director for NPDC was one of the issues that always brought Mr. Yakubu in direct confrontation with the Minister.

“The face-off between the Minister and the GMD NNPC has been raging for a long time,” one of our sources said. “The NPDC issue was only one of several. In fact, the former GMD managed to remain in office that long because of the Vice President, Namadi Sambo, who is from the same geo-political zone with him and always stood up to his defence each time the Minister wanted his head.”

However, the last straw that led to the removal of Mr. Yakubu was the issue of appointment of the Managing Director of NPDC, this newspaper understands.

Our sources said the former NNPC GMD stood up to the Minister on the issue, which some NNPC Board members said generated serious tension for days, resulting in the movement of staff and visitors to the management floors of the NNPC Towers being restricted as the issues was deliberated upon.

The 10th and 11th floors of the A wing of the building houses the offices of the Minister and the GMD.

During the meeting, the Minister was said to have asked the former GMD to nominate candidates for the NPDC top job, ostensibly to create the impression that the NNPC was the initiator of the process that would culminate in the final appointment.

But Mr. Yakubu, our sources say, in line with his conviction that only a person with technical background was fit to be in charge of an important subsidiary such as NPDC, was said to have suggested two candidates, who did not include the lawyer the minister wanted.

A heated argument that ensued allegedly resulted in a stalemate, with the Minister accusing the former GMD of “gross insubordination taken too far”.

Coincidentally, a day after the tensed meeting, PREMIUM TIMES had published an exclusive report highlighting the minister’s lethargic management style of “micro-managing the entire petroleum industry as her personal estate using her powerful personal aides to carry out key policies, rather than designated officials”.

The minister, who was said to have used the media report as another confirmation of alleged insubordination by her subordinates, allegedly fingered Mr. Yakubu as the prime suspect and sponsor of the publication.

In anger, the minister was said to have reported Mr. Yakubu to the vice President before going to the President to demand his immediate sack.

A few hours later, Mr. Yakubu was fired and replaced by his kinsman, Joseph Dawha, who until his appointment was the acting GED, Exploration and Production of NNPC.

The President then immediately approved the appointment of Anthony Muoneke as Managing Director of NPDC.

Mr. Muoneke, said to be an oil and gas lawyer, was Mrs. Alison-Madueke favourite candidate opposed by Mr. Yakubu, who insisted that it would be counter productive to appoint a lawyer to run an oil and gas production company.

Prior to his appointment, Mr. Muoneke, who was called to the Nigerian Bar in 1985, was the Executive Director, Finance & Administration, Niger Delta Power Holding Company Limited, NDPHC.

But even before the minister and the sacked NNPC boss clashed over the appointment of a chief executive for the NPDC, the two officials had for long related with each other with suspicion.

To avoid direct dealings with the former NNPC GMD, the sources said the minister resorted to a management style that saw her using her powerful personal assistants and sidelining the top management of the corporation in implementing some top oil industry policy decisions.

For instance, the sources said the Group Executive Directors (GEDs) of some key subsidiaries of the NNPC were encouraged to undermine the NNPC GMD.

They listed some GEDs of NNPC subsidiaries, who routinely bypassed the chain of command to report directly to the Minister first before their parent management to include those in charge of Pipelines and Petroleum Marketing Company (PPMC), and Crude Oil Marketing Department.

Other officials bypassing the GMD include those in charge of refining and petrochemical, which supervises the operations of the country’s four refineries and petrochemical companies as well as heads of the Legal and Corporate Services Department, which is also in charge of the management of NNPC’s Board secretariat.

Although Mr. Yakubu’s face-off with the Minster had been on for a long time, the sources told PREMIUM TIMES that the sacked NNPC GMD became a marked man whose days were numbered early this year when the N10 billion private aircraft contract scandal blew open.

When the scandal broke, our sources said, the minister and her aides allegedly blamed it on the former NNPC GMD whom they suspected was behind the leakage of information to members of the House of Representatives.

In an attempt to halt the alleged leakage of contract details, the minister was said to have directed the then Secretary to the NNPC Board and Legal Adviser, Anthony Madichie, to take action to protect the confidentiality of the corporation’s official records and block leakers from gaining access.

When Mr. Madichie couldn’t deliver, the Minister reportedly recommended his immediate removal from office. He was replaced by Ikechukwu Oguine as Coordinator, Legal Services and Company Secretary of the corporation.

The Presidency did not offer any reason for Mr. Madichie’s removal in April, the second time members of the NNPC top management would be removed in a space of two months since March 2014, when the President appointed new GEDs.

Industry experts however alleged that the constant changes were part of a grand design by the administration to enable card-carrying politicians, rather than professionals, take over the NNPC Board as well as the corporation’s subsidiaries.

The minister and her aides declined to comment for this story.

Repeated calls to the minister’s known telephone line failed to connect.

Several calls to her Senior Special Assistant, Kevin Alonzo, were not responded to last week.

When similar calls were made to the Group General Manager Group Public Affair of NNPC, Ohi Alegbe, he requested the reporter to send a text message.

He however did not reply the text message, as well as emails sent to him.

Hmm

This drug reminds me of my grandma and Ojuwoye market. Small thing like this, she don go Ojuwoye go buy Alabunkun.

In as much as this present administration has failed us all, Fayose himself is not excluded from the mess. He should not put his stinking mouth to this protest of a thing because he is not suffering like a common man and should not pretend like he like us. Has he ever stopped or reduced his bogus salaries, all his unnecessary allowances or his he paying for anything with his money.

They are all rogues and thiev*s.

ybalogs:
We have very heartless people in key positions in this country . Their statements in a bid to clear their names is always devoid of sense and these are really very brilliant minds . Only that they chose to use their intellects for frauds .

We the citizens want the country to be great all of a sudden when we are not ready to make it work. The Executives, Legislatives & Judiciary are only taking advantage of the fact that an average Nigerian is a thief like them which prompt them to continue the way things are.

You can immagine the guy claiming he was forced to pay the money he didn't know anything about. If he could agree to pay such amount of money as claimed then he is a thief. And his relatives too will be among those ready to protest on Feb 6th, instead of them to go and strangle his neck first.

I love listening to all the Surah but my favorite should be;

PrinceMario:
Are PDP members not Nigerians? You're expecting a lost soul APC slave to protest against the ineptitude of the riff raff in Aso Villa? Don't politicize this ma.
Every Nigerian has the right to engage in a peaceful protest irrespective of his/her party affiliation; they are only demostrating their constitutional right.

I think the point she is making is that it is a protest against all governance in Nigeria not just the Presidency.

Is Fayose better off in his state?

Wasn't he a governor in the last administration?

Or is government not a continuance.

subtlemee:
You don't have to be rude ok...show some maturity,we are all curious,anxious and apprehensive about his health status

Is it that you are "curious, anxious and apprehensive about his health" or you actually wish the rumour is true.

The lie is boldly written on your face.

Mustafi never lost a match FC.

galaxy15:
hear your yourself. "Human being no be Animal" doesn't it sound odd to you. if it doesn't then that explains the statement. see what science has put in minds of people.

well to me Humans ain't animals. We are wonderful made creatures

I could see that you didn't understand the point I made.
I was just been sarcastic. It was because of people like you that I used "lol" at the end of it.

Initially I do feel somehow with their response but now, I always watch out for them.

sweettease:
And they think Trump has unnecessary paranoia

To you now you have made a point. I bet your hatred mind didn't allow you to see where it was written that "at least two gunmen wearing black fired indiscriminately into the dozens of worshipers in the mosque".

Ehn! Ehn! May be the dad is a night watchman.
Or human beings no be animals?

Lol!!

ayindejimmy:
If the president fails to return on the 6th has promised, then you can start asking for proof.
So the president should be on 24hoursvideo monitoring to convince you he's alive?
Is he on Big Brother Naija ?
When his vacation is over you'll see proof.
Until then, all these are just mere propagandas and unnecessary distraction

Don't mind them. I tire for this matter sef.
The guy followed due process before he proceeded on his leave for goodness sake. The Vice president is capable of handling any executive functions pending the time he stated to be back. If by then they don't see him, they can all call for his head.

OP, why must he show you a video proof of life?

Is he holding the country to ransom?
Is his leave affecting the Executive functions?

I can confirm most of it.

I just gbadun presido style of ignoring everybody saying he should show his face. They think he can be bullied like a bloody civilian.

If I be him, I won't answer anybody as well.

NLC should speak about the bad ways workers are been treated first before telling someone to speak.

Rubbish !!

It is clear and visible enough for the sane minds to see. Only the greedy ones will complain.

And some people will be fighting over someone like this not knowing they only care for themselves.
Nigeria politicians are all thi*ves.

Mr "Constituted Authority" himself. I wasn't surprise with what he said because I have known him to be very bad in that aspect, he talks anyhow.
He should come out himself to apologize to the students but that will be too big for him to do.
