Where is that written?

But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Where are the gurus?

Hi everyone, Please just a quick shout out to all the gurus in the house. A couple of pages back, I asked for your opinion about the best Xiaomi phone to go for. As a result of all your recommendations and suggestions, my mind tilted from Mi Max 11 to Note 5 Pro. I took delivery of my first Xiaomi phone yesterday - Xiaomi Note 5 Pro.

Thank you guys!

On opening the phone however, I realized it was the Chinese ROM version. I honestly was not attentive when I was told it was the only version available. Although I have the option of returning it if I am not okay with it, but I would like to know if the Chinese ROM is 'something one could live with', without massive regrets later. Apart from google services that are not pre - installed, please are there other hidden 'terms and condition' that I need to know about upfront?

What you need is redmi note 5 going by your needs but will cost you like 65-70k for the basic configuration. You can also buy redmi 5 plus, add 10-15k to the 40k.

Thank you, Sisterly. Please amongst these model redmi note 5 Pro, REDMI note 5 plus, Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5A Prime and Mi Max 2, which one will be your no. 1 top pick

Elslim:


oh a demsel in distress....

just close eye and go for d Redmi 5 series.... (my personal opinion though) Redmi 5 or Redmi 5 plus

My brother, Xiaomi has got to be the most confusing and over saturated product
line up ever. Trying to make sense of the names, models, in order of increasing capacity, is the most distressing activity I have engaged in lately.

Even in the Redmi 5 series, you still have to choose between redmi note 5 Pro, REDMI note 5 plus, Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5A Prime etc.
So now I think basically my contest of choice is between Mi Max 2 and one of the 4 listed redmi 5 series

Mfunkynation:
go for redmi note 5a prime

Thank you

GrandMufti:

I have only heard about mi max 2, never knew there is a mi max 3 now

Elslim:


ur money will determine the product u will get.... so bross how much are u willing to part with

Thank you. I am a lady though. Budget is 40k for now, but can adjust to accommodate the best deals. So basically I need recommendations of the best, then I will adjust budget accordingly.

Gurus in the house, kindly advice on the model of Xiaomi I should go for, please, if reading, watching lecture videos, batterrylife and picture quality are my major focus.The names/models are so confusing. I used the whole of yesterday browsing to make sense of the brand and to make a choice, to no avail. 'I yaf tired o', and i need to make the decision today, please help!!

[quote author=tyor post=27883130][b]This is a very interesting thread. A lot of people are asking what the best pathway is....I wish to disappoint you. There's no pathway to success...the same route followed by Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook is the same path that others have followed and they failed. Timing of your decision is very important. Moving fast could be as dangerous as moving too slow.

Speak to a career advisor (in the absence of an advisor), speak to someone that has achieved some level of success in the career path that suits you. It is disappointing that in this day and age, a Nigerian would save up N7m and dash it out to the Queen of England in the name of Masters/MBA, only to be kicked out after the programme. Gets back home with a British MBA and starts to write aptitude test and seeking for a job that pays less than N100k monthly. You should only seek such attainment when you have the necessary tools e.g. professional certification or relevant experience to prove that you're a master of that profession/skill.

Go on LinkedIn and check how many Nigerians have lofty Ivy-League MBAs.... People with Imperial MBA, Whatron MBA, Duke, Berkerly, Booth, Cranfield, LSE, etc they all want the same job as you. You need to convince an employer that u're better than these people, and ONE of the easy ways to deal with that is your understanding of the fundamentals. E.g. for Accounting profession, having ICAN or ACCA proves to the employer that u know the basics of Accounting and having passed that exam means YOU ARE RUGGED. Those exams dont come easy (even for First class graduates). Also, a moderate experience in an Audit firm (even the local ones) proves that you have seen the financial statements of different organisations. Simply put, you are DEEP and VAST.

The employer would decide if it wants someone to brag about (imperial MBA) and/or someone to stay overnight until all transactions are reconciled and accurately reported. At the end of the day, the best people are those that have obtained ICAN/ACCA, garnered moderate experience and Obtains the ALMIGHTY MBA...then the employer is forced to place them in Senior Roles (as they have proof of doing the detailed work) and Also an MBA to proof their managerial competency.

Dont be deceived. They global standard employers dont care if you have PHd, what they want is someone that meets the basic requirement and proof to be able to do the job.

I know Zenith bank's age limit for Entry Level is 2nd Class Upper and 25yrs for BSc and Master Degree holders but they allow 27yrs old for ICAN/ACCA holders, even HND+ICAN+27yrs old is accepted.

PwC also gives consideration if u're slightly older but have ICAN/ACCA.

If I were to start my career afresh, I would finish with a degree......
1. Obtain a REPUTABLE professional qualification e.g. CFA, CIPM, SHRM, ICAN, ACCA, CISA, CIBN, etc (depending on what path i want)
2. work for a few years with a REPUTABLE firm that specialises in that chosen field (e.g, HR Firm, Audit Firm, Law Firm, Archy Firm, etc)
3. Seek ivy-league MBA (STRICTLY Top-ranked schools). Pls note that only 6 schools in the UK make the list of World best 100 business schools

If you want an employer to take you because of your MBA, the reputation of your school is VERY VERY IMPORTANT. Nevertheless, with your average MBA, people still get employed because they are smart (which maybe attributed to the knowledge from MBA).


Choose wisely!!!

You are so on point, Opribo. We cannot be distracted by frivolities!!!

opribo:
So may I ask what is the achievement here. That a man decides for personal reasons to worship in a more convenient place that is closer to him has now turned to public news. Seriously there are major issues to be tackled by this govt than this unnecessary piece of info.

Waiting for when they will end Boko haram and bring the Chibok girls also giving us 24hrs electricity. If they like they can go to Saudi mosque for all I care. They should just fulfill their campaign promises. That's all.

If that is the picture of the "oyibo" who killed our sister, then I can comfortably say the man is mentally unstable and look to me like someone who takes hard drugs or a serious alcoholic. He should rot in jail.

RIP to Mariam, The Lord will console your family.

Spot on..., my thoughts exactly!!!!

Abeg, you guys should just stop all these degree and class of degree talk already. It's annoying! After putting all efforts to graduate with good grades in order to be distinguished, up till now 2.1 has not fetched any good job.

Back then, I had this female friend from another dept. who was on the verge of graduating with a 3rd class. I started studying with her so she could be motivated. She finally graduated with a low 2.2 and now she is working. Her uncle is a minister, but now "she dey hardly pick my call again sef".

I know of another mate who graduated with a 3rd class, but now working with a big oil company(I dunno know her position sha).

"No be by 2.1 or 1st class o"(but then, whatever that is worth doing at all is worth doing well - one of my mantras).


I made a decision never to "struggle" for job again after I almost lost my life last year, when I was going for an aptitude test in Lagos(EY).

Robbers and other people with bad intentions go on a mission and come back successfully, why should my life be endangered when I had no evil intention, but was only trying to take advantage of an opportunity that would have better my life.

I have always gone an extra mile just to be outstanding in all that I do. Right now, I think it's high time for God to prove himself. I have surrendered unto him because, right now, it seems my strength can't help me no more.

N:B I am not a big fan of typing, I just decided to bare my mind for once. So please, pardon all my blunders.

The God that did it for me, will do it for you! Keep your faith alive and never, even for one second, ponder on the lies of the devil that there are no jobs in this country or you need to know somebody to get it. Believe that every day, people are getting great jobs! Believe that wherever God wants you to be, he will divinely connect you and take you there. Lift your eyes from around you and look above you absolutely and the God whose eyes searcheth to and fro the entire world, will choose the right person to use to get you to where he wants you to be. That is how mine came.

Dailyfavour: I think they do these to most lines in Nigeria, so tired of it, in my search for solution, I was asked to write "STOP to 33111" yet the messages doubled after promising of removing my line from data base.....up to NCC

This is exactly what I experienced too, when I tried to solve the problem.

I find this thread very interesting, I would suggest that you take out time to read the reviews of some of these products. The review has helped me to understand some things. For instance, there's a wash u can use on a daily basis for hygienic purposes. Everteen natural intimate wash is a good example, because it's very mild. Where infection or the risk of is an issue, then u can go for Lactacyd or Vwash. The later shouldn't be used daily, except in cases of chronic infection. It should also be noted that in cases of infec tion, they are no substitute for prescribed medicine. They can only be used together with a prescribed antibiotics. U can read the reviews of some of these washes on this link http://www.reviewsandlifestyle.com/2013/02/lactacyd-feminine-wash-review.html

Walcolm and your crew, just want to take out time to thank you for a job well done. This thread has been of tremendous help not just 2 me but to a whole lot of people. From knowing d appropriate network 2 go with (BIS - wise), to knowing how to maximize my Z10 to its utmost potential, u guys rock !!!!

We don't need 2 be in d white house or Villa 2 impact d world, You are doing it already!! God bless your kind n patient heart always n more grease 2 your elbows!!!
