Depends on the person teaching him, you don't need to spend up to 2years or even 1year before you can know how to repair this things.

It's just Nigeria thing where oga will tell you to sign for 2years or so just because most of this oga's don't teach theory most of them do trial and error and when they get the cause, then if such fault arise they head straight to that place to repair.

It shouldn't be so, take for instance, as a laptop chip level engineer, some engineer believe when this problem arises then this is the problem, they head straight to the place to fix it and some times it might not be the problem. You need to trace from birth place, with a schematic diagram to help you trace fault well.


I see a lot of nigerian oga's them do trial and error especially in engineering stuff.

My advice to op is, he should learn from someone that have more customers, the more customers you have the more problem you solve and the more you learn.

And try to upgrade yourself, don't always depend on your boss for information.
You don't need to spend 2years to know this stuff.
Yeah that's true.... Learning is a gradual process

I'm a marine engineer by profession, it took me just 18months to learn a lot while on board during my sea training phase.

I learned about Pumps, Marine Diesel engines, Generators, boilers, Ref and air conditioning, Heat exchangers, electricals and other numerous equipment under 18months before proceeding to write for my license.

Though there are lot to learn in the course of profession, if he puts in his best and passion to it

Read articles, join forums, go for courses and upgrade your knowledge and I promise he will be the best in his the field

Hi,
I need your advice or counsel on this issue that has been giving me sleepless night.
I am sharing this on nairaland because i feel there are men and women of mature minds and who have lots of experiences on here from diverse walks of life who can be of help.

I have been unemployed for almost 10months now, though before now i worked as a Chemistry teacher for some years until tragedy struck early last year(lost a very vital person in my life). I had to quit the teaching job (because the incident happened at the time where the senior students were preparing for their WASSCE) and as the first born i had funeral rites to perform.
After the burial things weren't too pleasant with me, so i had to re-locate from Lagos to Benin (to stay with an Uncle). My plan was that after everything i would go for any professional course or do one of these HSE courses to boost my chances of getting a job, but due to re-location and financial constraint i had to think of something else.


It happens that where i am currently staying in Benin; along Benin-Agbor road, close to NNPC depot before Benin-Agbor by-pass; has this influx of trailers and heavy duty trucks transporting goods and PMS/diesel/coaltar to and from other states.
Hence the availability of lots of truck's spare-parts markets in the area as well truck mechanics with shops everywhere dealing in repairs of different types of truck (Scania, MACK, M.A.N diesel, etc).



Being that i have been idle for a while now, a thought just came to me that instead of staying idle why not apply to be a Diesel Injector engine mechanic apprentice.

I want to know if that thought is worth giving a try and what are the things that may likely happen being that i did not read an engineering course from the University and what may become of my life. I am 28years of age.


Please help a brother by pushing it to front page mod.

If you can answer these questions truthfully then you can proceed

1. Are you going into Diesel Engine Mechanic because you are staying in an area where there's influx of heavy duty trucks?

2. If you were not staying in such area, would you have such idea to go into repairing Diesel engines?

3. Do you really have a passion for the job? If yes since when? Or you are desperate because you are idle?

4. Are you gonna endure your apprenticeship peradventure you end up with a rude and greedy master?

5. Are you gonna dedicate your 7-8 years serving and learning the trade? (Since you are already 28 years of age)

6. Do you still want to trade on your field (Industrial chemistry) in case something juicy comes out while undergoing your apprenticeship.

7. Do you have the money to pay for the training?

If you can answer these questions diligently, then you can make your decision to forge ahead

i find this surprising in all hornesty, especially the audio part you mentioned.
The audio production is poor in my own observation... I even played music with Poweramp pro

I rate it 6/10

They should have used Dolby or Maxx Wavv audio sound drivers

If this phone ever comes to Nigeria, all networking parastartals will contribute money and buy one then begin to use it as modem to upload and download, since it will be data free
Says who? Do you know that 1Gb on Thuraya network costs more than 5k

It's only good for making calls while at sea, desert etc

In layman's term, the display is big, sharp and clear.

I'm kinda disappointed with the display and audio sound of the phone...

The battery, RAM and lightweight are the selling point of the phone

Please I need your advice...I ordered a phone from Amazon (Samsung s8plus and an SD card)...but it's been undergoing clearance from custom ever since it's shipped to Nigeria... I thought that's a normal process (this won't be my first time ordering things from Amazon)... not until I got a parcel delivered to me...I thought it's my package...only to check and find a letter stating I need to travel down to Lagos for some clearance.. it sounds weird and strange to me... please I need you guys to put me through as I don't know what to do... I'll attach the letter I got from them.. thanks
Next time use third party agents here like Mikkyangel, infinitykoncept, bizbloke, Clone2020, laderojohn to avoid stories like this.....

The Ibeno beach is very dangerous place to go for fun. I remember in 1999, during corpers week, 4 corpers lost their lives.
RIP to their family
A warning notice is always put at the entrance of the beach.... The tidal wave of the beach is not beans.....so if you can't swim... Stay off the beach....

According to a friend... He got drown when he went to rinse his body after playing soccer on the beach...

And i passed by their house yesterday evening, a lot of people were trooping in to symphatize with the family...

I really feel for his parents....

May their Souls RIP

Apart from the depleted Abuja stadium, which other city with a standard stadium can accommodate thousands of people with accommodation? Uyo? Lol

Lagos with traffic gridlock and insecurities?

Abi Fashola wan plan manslaughter of foreigners?
