Car Talk / Re: Share Your Molue Experience.... by gbokukueba(m): 8:24am On Aug 07, 2013
I have had some unpleaseant and pleaseant experiences in Molue. The first one was when i was like 13 or 14 was coming from Oshodi to Ikeja with my 2 brothers the bus was about to move and the conductor was inside calling us to hurry up and enter he even offered to take the load with me so that i can enter conveniently which i gladly did...now the problem became after i managed to climb i couldnt find the conductor i guess as he took the stuff from me he went out through the other door come see crying that day i didnt have a good look at him, i couldnt describe him and the worst part was that the bag contained my mum's recently purchased shoes... she nearly kill me!

Another experience was from Iyana Ipaja to Oshodi one night like that that buses were scares as i follow them rush immediately i sensed my phone was missing which i confirmed and i just kept quiet becos i knew i was foolish i should have known better "emi omo ikoo' by the way it was a dead phone so ee no pain me.

The pleaseant experience i had was in 2007 when i started working in a bank in VI was a saving grace for me as i wasnt well paid for the first 11 months so the molue helped me to save on transport going in the morning and funny enough i always met my friends as we all work on the island in different banks was quite a nice experience...

What a life! smiley

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Age Requirement Is Unconstitutional by gbokukueba(m): 10:24am On Aug 05, 2013
bishopjoe02: It is a usual practice by recruiting organizations to specify age requirements as part of their eligibility criteria. In most vacancies the maximum age for entry level applicants is usually pegged at 27/28 and in some ridiculous circumstances 24/25. After consulting the 1999 Constitution I discovered that this practice is unconstitutional as it is a form of discrimination.
Section 42 subsection 2 states that “No citizen of Nigeria shall be subjected to any disability or deprivation merely by reason of the circumstances of his birth”. Ladies and gentlemen your date of birth and hence your age is a circumstance of birth so also is your sex and ethnicity. Employers have been getting away with this constitutional violation because nobody has challenged the practice rather people go about doctoring their ages so as to meet up with these ridiculous age requirements.

The following are the only jobs that the constitution has placed age restrictions and these jobs are mostly electoral office positions;

1) President ; must be 40 years old...section 131 subsection 2b
2) Vice president; same as that of the president... section 142 subsection 2
3) Senator; must be 35 years old...section 65 subsection 1a
4) House of representative; must be 30 years old... section 65 subsection 1b
5) Governor ; must be 35 years old...section 177 subsection 1b
6) &nbspeputy Governor; ; same as that of the Governor... section 187 subsection 2
7) Members of the house of assembly; must be 30 years old... section 106 subsection 1b

Other jobs include state commissioners and special advisers to governors (which have the same requirements as those of members of the house of assemble) and ministers and special advisers to the president of the federation (which have the same requirements as those of the House of Representatives).

Ladies and gentlemen, taking into account our erratic educational system with its numerous strikes, most students especially those in federal and state higher institutions end up graduating in their mid twenties and when you then factor in the one year NYSC and the waiting period of prospecting for jobs (which could range from months to years) you will notice that a significant number of graduates would have exceeded the maximum age limits placed by prospective employers.

Dear naija jobbers, the wind of change is blowing and we should not just sit and watch our rights been trampled upon and I think now is the time to act. In developed countries you will be prosecuted if you dare place age requirements for any job vacancy.

I do not want to lie about my age because it is not a crime and I shouldn’t be made to suffer for it.

God bless you all.

Go and open your own compnay and take a 50 year old man as management trainee all in the guise of obeying the law and besides there is no such law against age barrier in Nigeria. You simply quoting out of context.

Sports / Hakeem Olajunwon Tops International NBA Players Of All Time by gbokukueba(m): 1:26pm On Aug 04, 2013
Hakeem Abdul Olajuwon (Nigeria)



Nigerian-born Hakeem Olajuwon emigrated to the U.S. to play for the University of Houston despite not having been heavily recruited. By his second year, however, he was a founding member of “Phi Slama Jama,” the made-up fraternity that recognized his incredible dunking abilities. He was drafted first overall in 1984 (over other legends such as Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley) by the Houston Rockets, and played with them for 17 seasons. He remains the franchise’s leader in scoring, rebounding, steals and blocked shots, and brought Houston its only major sports championships in 1994 and 1995. He also was the 1994 MVP, 1993 and 1994 Defensive Player of the Year, two-time Finals MVP, and 12-time All-Star. Although he’s been retired for over a decade, Olajuwon remains the NBA’s all-time leading shot blocker, beating out the wagging Mutombo for the top spot. -

They should provide some food for the baboons where they can al go and eat rather than allow them raid the houses. I witness monkeys do same in Durban only if you leave your window or doors open.

@ Nadia, this has nothing to do with Nigerian men or Congolese men or South African women. It was a case of foolish men fighting over foolish women... it has nothing to do with the country of origin as you have put me in the same group as does crazy guys who happen to be Nigerians.

Do not assume anything ask all the irrelevant things and do not take answer at face value. I bought a used brand new car a few months ago and made some silly mistake of not finding out more... today the maga is owing me and the car is gone...! If you can avoid it and buy a used car or new car that you can be rest assured it will not come back to haunt you.
