Foreign AffairsRe: German Election: CDU's Merz Declares Victory, Scholz Admits Defeat by Focusmind: 9:03am On Feb 24, 2025
Scholz seems eager to leave the stage. He is simply tired and the fear of working with Trump is unnerving. He was low on the ranking going into the polls. Trump never liked the guy and he was rooting for his exit. Trump would have loved the far right party, Alternative for Germany to win. But since AFD didn't win, he would be happy with CDU"s Merz to take over.

PoliticsRe: PDP NWC Kicks As Wike’s Camp Holds South-South Zonal Congress In Calabar by Focusmind: 12:14pm On Feb 23, 2025
grin grin Wike is not shifting ground. He is not ready to back down for Atiku. I am surprised at Wike's boldness. No politician from the South has been this bold to challenge a powerful northern establishment. The man isn't backing down anytime soon for PDP. He would destroy the party within and ensure that the party is not united as the build up towards 2027 gathers momentum. Those thinking that BAT would loose the 2027 general elections should check their thinking faculties again.

Originalsly:
Sounds nice of you .. that you more than compensated for the accident. Did.you ever try getting an update on how the victim been managing since? ... has she been going through difficulties as a result of the accident? If you didn't.. ..maybe you should.

@ topic ... did they know the guy to be a Yahoo guy? ...or is it because of the car? The student is killed ... the driver without a license nor insurance ... what happens next? ...a heartfelt apology to the victim's family and she moves on with her life? Is the Police involved in the matter? ..mif they did...would they be interested in holding her accountable? ...or laying hands on the Yahoo guy to extort him? From top to bottom ... people are not held accountable for their actions ... "was a mistake ... everybody make mistakes .. judge not.
I didn't try anything, knowing fully well how some Nigerians behaves and her family members that came to hospital to see her. If I had followed up, they would be "milking " me on regular basis. They called me for money for a follow up check in another hospital and I sent. They did same for the second time, I sent. On the third time, I told them to bring her to the former hospital that I took her to, that treated and discharged her, they refused and I quietly blocked them. I told the Physio that treated her about the calls from her family and he told me nothing serious and that she would recover without any further treatment. He gave me a copy of her discharge by the hospital. Don't ever have case with people that would use you as an ATM. Lots of people are hungry in Nigeria and if they perceived you as being able to put food on the table, you would be their "maga"

TravelRe: Yahoo Boy’s Girlfriend Kills Final-Year Nursing Student While Learning To Drive by Focusmind: 11:57am On Feb 22, 2025
Similar thing almost happened to me in 2012. My "stubborn" girl didn't hear word. I would go and pick her on Saturdays from where she was doing computer training. On our way back to my house, she would insist on driving the car and I would stupidly be guiding her. On that fateful day, she lost control and hit an "agbo-jedi" Seller that was walking on her own. The lady fell on the road with her load scattered everywhere. Thank God, the incident happened within my area and most people recognised me and offered assistance. I took the injured lady to the hospital and paid for all the wares she had on her pan. It was a very bitter experience. To tell you how funny some people are, her family even wanted to " cashout" from me, despite my treatment of the girl in a highly rated hospital and huge compensation for loss of her goods. The goods didn't even miss as passers-by gently picked everything on the road, except the one inside bottle that got shattered.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: What's That Job Once Highly Respected That Has Lost Its Respect Now? by Focusmind: 9:44am On Feb 21, 2025
I don't know why some ignorant people mentioned banking. As a young graduate, if you enter the banking system as a full time staff in a good department like treasury, financial control, corporate audit, internal services, corporate affairs, investors relations, legal, human capital, investment banking, private banking or within the office of the group managing director, you are already on the part of career success. It's left for you to learn as much as possible within those units and continue to develop and deepen your capabilities. The pay is equally sufficient to cater for your needs and if you are good with money and rises through the ranks in your organisation, you should be able to build your house, get a good car and live a decent life, far above the average life in Nigeria. From there, opportunities could be opened for you in other sectors when you must have spent 7 to 10 years in the banking, learning and developing your self.
PoliticsRe: “They Will Face Payback In 2027 – El-Rufai by Focusmind: 8:21am On Feb 20, 2025
Their stupid followers will start defending their masters. Leave these politicians alone. They are only interested in elections. Who is El rufai threatening? Tinubu? He is not serious. Nothing will stop Tinubu in 2027 except himself. If you think that Tinubu will lose 2027 election as a sitting president, you are day dreaming. Jonathan was a one off event which will never happen again
PoliticsRe: Anambra Guber: Valentine Ozigbo resigns from Labour Party by Focusmind: 8:39pm On Feb 19, 2025
Read his message carefully; Soludo has promised him the APGA ticket in 2029, after Soludo must have done his second tenure. Ozigbo is aware that unseating Soludo in the governorship election would be extremely difficult. It would be better for him to wait and take the APGA ticket in 2029 than to contest now and loose woefully. Soludo did the same during his own time. He left PDP to wait for the APGA ticket, which he clinched and went on to win.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Why Are Tech Jobs Difficult To Get? by Focusmind:
Tech is getting to saturation point - it has gotten to saturation point in Nigeria and it is about to become surplus in the western world, except if you possess an exceptionally cognitive ability and skills in the emerging tech world like AI and Precision science and engineering. Even at that, the competition is stiff as those areas doesn't require much human to work in that space. I had to advice someone that completed a program in automation in Canada to move to Practical nursing. I am glad he did and he is completing his 2 - year diploma in Practical nursing and currently have a job in a Youth shelter home as a support worker. While doing his automation program, he never got any job as a student and was becoming frustrated. He still did not get job when he finished the Automation program. If you intend to study abroad, go for programs with job prospects instead of those with beautiful names without any prospect of securing job in a typically white - dominated sector.
TravelRe: Donald Trump Deports 85 Nigerians by Focusmind: 6:50pm On Feb 17, 2025
If you an illegal immigrant, start looking for jobs in very rural black communities, where there are no ICE police. These are what lots of people have done. They relocated to communities far removed from cities and urban centres. Some illegal immigrants have lived in rural communities for decades without being noticed by the law enforcement agency.
EducationRe: Living Abroad And Getting Lesson Teachers From Nigeria For Your Children by Focusmind: 10:47am On Feb 17, 2025
Many Nigerian students abroad send their assignments to Nigerians in Nigeria to do the assignments at a fee for them.

Lots of Nigerians are online assignment doers and they "earn" their living by advertising their "services" online for willing buyers. Many ladies studying abroad have guys back home that are doing assignments, term papers and projects. In abroad, assignments, seminars, term papers and projects constitutes up 70% of total assessment for some courses abroad
EducationRe: UNIZIK Expels female student who assaulted lecturer by Focusmind: 3:11pm On Feb 14, 2025

EducationRe: UNIZIK Orders Probe After Female Student Slapped Her Lecturer by Focusmind: 1:15pm On Feb 12, 2025
The lecturer should have simply walked away. Nigerian University lecturers behaves like demigod, with absolute no regards for students. They treat students as if they do not exist. The girl may have her own issues but the lecturer looked for trouble. We are too ill-mannered in this country and lacks simple courtesy. Nothing stops the lecturer from being a little civil when he was passing the hallway instead of the way he reacted toward the girl. People that are taking selfies are always oblivious of certain thing happening around them. You will be occupied with your video and selfies to notice any incoming person. This is the reason why people have accidents or meet their death while videoing or taking selfies. The girl will definitely come out "unscathed" as long as mum is a lecturer in the school.

PoliticsRe: El-rufai Dismisses Claims Of Opposing Tinubu, Says He’s Moved On by Focusmind: 5:53am On Feb 11, 2025
Una no dey hear word. Fayemi, the former governor of Ekiti, had told you people the truth. Politicians fight for entertainment, strategic intentions and for social media. The Tinubu and El rufai issues are no different. Don't be surprised that Tinubu is positioning that man to take over from him. Tinubu and Buhari presented a "fighting " scenario to Nigerians before the election - what happened later? The same Buhari willingly handed power to Tinubu. By 2031, the same Elrufai must have garnered sympathy from the north and other parts of the country on account of his fake quarrel with Tinubu and snatch the APC nomination and ultimately, the presidency. The APC government and party will keep antagonising him and making him popular. These are all deliberate intentions to make Elrufai a victim of circumstances. Don't be deceived by any intention of Elrufai to form alliance with the opposition. He will deceive the opposition and still remain in APC. You see Buhari, Tinubu and Elrufai, they decided the leadership of Nigeria in 2015.

Foreign AffairsRe: More Than 100 Women Raped And Burned Alive In DR Congo Jailbreak, UN Says by Focusmind:
The government will never regain control of those territories lost. The government in Kinshasa is too laid back, docile and extremely corrupt. Lots of Congolese are not willing to lay down their lives for a corrupt regime that is living a life of affluent while millions grope in poverty. Thousands of Congolese soldiers abandoned their positions without firing a shot at the advancing M23 rebels. Some even joined the rebels so that they could have access to the lucrative mining sites, since they are not benefiting from the government. This is what you get when the national army and other state actors are compromised.

Thank you very much for your response. I was wondering since TEER 4 isn’t eligible, “33109” is the closest category to use, otherwise PSWs won’t be able to apply PR, and to mention that PSW is most often categorized with health care.
If you have PSW qualifications, go with "33109" and ensure that your job descriptions mirror that of the responsibilities mentioned under "33109" in the NOC classification
PoliticsRe: Northerners Pull Down Tinubu's 2027 Billboard(video) by Focusmind:
Stupidity!!!

one stupid politician must have erected that bill board and paid some touts to pull it down. This is to show that BAT is not popular in the North. There is no contest in 2027. Tell me any politician that can challenge BAT in 2027 with all his executive powers? Without any executive powers in 2023 and odds stacked against him, he pulled through. Atiku, Obi and Kwankwaso can not stop him. You may be angry at this statement but that is the fact. Obi and Atiku messed up their chances in 2023 and the train had sailed. A new president will emerge in 2031 that would be neither Atiku, Obi nor Kwankwaso. undecided

Hello everyone, Please can PSW be categorized under TEER 33109 ‘Other assisting occupation in support of Health services’??
Yes, if you're working in a hospital setting, supporting nurses and assisting patients. But if you're working in a private home or long term centres as a support worker, it may be difficult to prove that you falls under the "33109" code. Nevertheless, lots of PSWs have successfully used "33109" to apply for PNP and PR
