Not just advisable, but absolutely necessary. It'd give you a lifetime of pleasure, believe me. I did it. |
sweetguy26:Boko haram is currently confined to a secluded corner of far away sambisa. You're ignorant of the north and its size. This is our governors being mature. If we decide to activate our hate and retaliate....oh my. |
murphyibiam15:When we see them start packing their belongings and leaving other regions back to the east, then we'll grant them biafra. |
ideyhere:tl;dr |
Love Machine:employees and staff mean the same thing in the HR context. The difference is between employees/staff and workers which is determined by pay. In most cases, workers in the purist sense implies contractual manpower, which most often is a laborer or wage earner. Note however that in most common usage, employees, staff and workers are used synonymously. Also note that salaries are actually annual, broken down to monthly payments. From the perspective of an employer, your salary is your annual total gross, not what you take home every 4 weeks. Thus, it's not the monthly rhythm that determines what we call salary. Here in nigeria, bank contract staff are actually wage earners even if they get paid monthly. This is on account of them having no other benefits outside their earnings, except by benevolence of the bank. Having wages only reduces the bank's personnel overheads, as they save money that instead would've gone to benefits, grants, etc. Contract staff can be fired at a whim without any messy accruals or entitlements of pension wranglings. |
Malawian:The lion king was filmed on your flat head. |
ideyhere:What is evil? 1. People hating others for no just cause, calling them animals and illiterates. 2. People seeking to destroy another country violently by waging a war of secession. 3. People claiming to be peaceful protesters, but barricading roads and bridges, holding sticks and clubs, burning mosques and other people's properties. May your evil remain confined to your destitute, derelict, dilapidated, eroded region. |
hahn:Really? I thought it was a Jamaican forum. ![]() Salaries and wages are universal constants. The laborers he contrasted the white collar workers with are wage earners. |
Malawian:Wawa jaki dan akuya mai chin kare. I too can cuss in local lingo. Go ahead and pick up the arms now. Put your money where your mouth is and do it already. |
There's a difference between salaries and wages. Whoever is earning salary usually has some other benefits. Bank employees and oil company workers also earn bonuses, grants, loans, vacation, health and other packages. Wage earners on the other hand have just their earnings and that's it. Salaries are guaranteed while wages are dependent on revenue. In the US most people prefer salaries to hour rates, which are just wages. |
He needs to use some of that endorsement money to fix up his dilapidated house. |
Meanwhile, governor Fayose is in the kitchen grinding pepper. |
This is traditionally how the senate makes extra budgetary money by the side. They'll scare the TETF Secretary into sharing the spoils with them. Then the report will be killed. |
Segadem:Very soon you'll find the gentle fisherman has joined IPOB to demand for Biafra. |

simpleseyi:FFK certainly partook of the ignoble feast. He was a director of publicity for the campaign platform. |
oshyno:You should direct your caution to the rent-a-judge judiciary. They're always the stumbling block. |
Malawian:The flat terrain of your head is visible from 20 kilometers. |
BumbleDevil:True. Riddle me this: Can a marginalized, persecuted, and intimidated tribe succeed in owning multibillion dollar businesses and properties all over the country, to the extent they claim to own Lagos and Abuja? Obviously not. So where's the persecution and the marginalization that's fueling the Biafra quest? It's pretty glaring biafra is borne of hate towards others, especially Muslim northerners. Just look at their history of malcontent. Just six years after independence they wiped off our leaders in the first ever military coup, just because Balewa was Prime Minister even though an igbo was Head of State. That coup bred distrust, led to civil war, led to successive coups, and destroyed federalism. And now, having learned nothing from history, they're at it again just six months after buhari was sworn in, before the government even got off the ground. Now they're burning mosques. I wonder how the UN they're counting on to liberate them will come on their side when they're the aggressors. If igboes spark off another civil war by attacking northerners again, no one will come to their aid, and they'll watch helplessly as their way of life is reset back to the stone ages. Again. |
Malawian:Only flat-heads are obsessed with head shapes. ![]() |
Malawian:All the heat was stoked up the moment the ipods asked for guns to kill the animals in the zoo. Stop blaming others for your blunderous idiocy. |
seunmsg:Whether the money is paid into his personal account or not is immaterial, as is the question of contractual obligations and work done. The PDP went into contract with AIT, the ONSA was just used as a conduit to pay AIT. The law works against ONSA paying defense money extra budgetarily, and the person who instructed the NSA to effect the payment. The law is not against dokpesi collecting his pay from an agent of government so instructed. Whether dokpesi actually did the work is between him and the PDP. I'm not condoning dokpesi, but the bigger crime was perpetrated by whoever asked dasuki to pay dokpesi. |
braimeddy:The woman he killed was a model from an upscale family. She was no commoner. But your point is still valid. |
seunmsg:Legally dokpesi isn't in much trouble. He's simply a businessman who got paid for services rendered. It's the former NSA and whoever instructed him to pay dokpesi that ought to be afraid. |
rhymestech:Wow! Such a lot of metaphors! Poo and music and vomit and yam... Vivid imagery. |
GudluckIBB:Or a hearse. Our overfed elites have a knack for keeling over due to over-excitement and poor innards. |
ideyhere:The lesser animals that wouldn't accept us into their folds are in the streets protesting for an animal farm called biafra. |
cktheluckyman:Quite true, and I agree with your sentiment. But consider the magnitude of the damage: In the east most of the northerners there are petty traders, guards, grocers, and butchers. In the north most of the igboes are big time business people with billion dollar investments. It's doubly important for the igboes to not escalate the assault on northern property in the east. The miscreants must be contained so that the aura of peaceful protests can be sustained. You know how we feel about our mosques. |
Ugosample:No. The soldiers that opened fire were deployed by the chief security officer of the state, Obiano. The igbo have never hidden their hatred of the north. Radio Biafra blared it, propagated it, and all the utterances of 90% of igboes on NL are uncomplimentary towards us. Calling us animals, abokis, killers, boko harams, illiterates, almajiris, and a thousand other unsavory epithets. Then there's the fact that the igboes did everything possible to malign buhari. When he still won, pro biafra propaganda took on full steam. Why burn a mosque and trucks? Why didn't you attempt to burn some military barracks or armored vehicles, or government property? GEJ and his Deltans have moved on, except you people. And your biggest miscalculation is the illogical belief that the UN and international community will come to your aid. Nothing could be further from the truth. If you base this expectation on the intervention in Syria, then yours is a lost cause. Syria is a proxy war between Sunni countries (saudi, Qatar, turkey) aided by US and Israel against Shi'a countries (iran, syria). It's a matter of regional and sectarian power tussle. There's nothing in Biafra for the international community. Oil is now a dime a dozen, the market is in a glut. Besides the real owners of the oil want no part of Biafra. So what does the UN stand to gain by assisting igboes? The world is too busy trying to protect itself from international terror to bother about some misguided and utterly xenophobic tribe instigating the breakup of a major country. So again....Biafra is DOA. |
