In as much as I don't want to burst anybody 's bubble,i heard that only 82 candidates will be recruited.

Please you guys should vote shola. He really deserves it. I know him personally,he has really went through stuff. I knew him selling coconuts. He has an hustling spirit. I wish him the very best.

Exams will be conducted by the various state commands. Exams won't be centralised thus time around.meaning no two states will set the same question. Just go and know more about your state and principal officers. U even heard that exams might be conducted on different days by different states.

Some Nis staff were recently promoted. And all Nis staff with one star were promoted too. I think once they have being decorated and posted, recruitment will continue. The promotion made spaces available for new recruits.

Sid is finer,[color=#990000][/color] Seriously

Ilekere: Dude is prolly 5'6-5'7 = Not attractive.

I wish you can see her,boobs she no get, ass nothing and she is not fine. But she is rich.

Ilekere: Joke of the century.
Are you talking about the ugly guy in those pictures?

I know this simi girl. Way back in law school. Rich girl. But her physique...........sid,can do better.

@lertee, I don't force her and sometimes she is the one that asks for it. My own grouse is since she is having sex with me,that means she doesn't love her boyfriend enough. Why can't she jst leave the guy and marry me.

Hey house,want to keep this short as possible. I once had a girl whom we dated for a considerable period of time. It happened that we broke up and we both went our seperate ways. We got in touch not too long ago and now comes this issue. I WANT her back but unfortunately she now dates a guy which she wants to get married to. Though I went ahead to express my feelings about wanting her back but she said NO. BUT she sleeps with me anytime I call her and we see,the next thing is to have sex. She wasn't like this when we were dating. She is insisiting that we can't date any longer but I wonder why she sleeps with me when she knows that she is getting married soon. N.B she is innocent when we were dating infact she is a pastor's daughter.

@babyosisi, what are the chances of a qualified nigerian lawyer over there in the states. What are his chances of getting a good job or he has to hustle too?if he has to hustle what kind of things can he engage his self with. Secondly,is it compulsory to get married to a citizen before achieving the "citizen" status. Thanks..

For example you will see a policeman frustrating an "okada man" for unintentionally break traffic rules. In this regard,I can't see what makes the level 3 police officer better than the okada man. The okada man might even be earning more than him in the longrun. I think that the policeman should be more "mean" to the rich guys who I think can "afford" to bribe him comfortably.. Do you now get ?

@pickabeau. What I meant is that an "upper class " is willing to help another "upper class" which is not the case with a "lower class" . They hardly help each other.

I observed that the "lower class" are always mean to each other and unwilling to help each other out whereas the "upper class" are more than willing to help and friendly to each other?

@OP,ur boify shud allow you to get to ur final year. Would av support d idea of marriage now if u were living together. Marriage plus schooling its nt easy. Then as a married woman,u can alwaz serve @ d state ur husband is residing. My 2cents!!

Can you sacrifice your marriage for a successful career?

On lighter note,how did you break the news of been pregnant to your husband and how did he react to the news.

To all of u vilifying the so called celebs for not helping OJB,dz a food for thought. These so called celebs worked for there money,so they are not under any obligation to help anybody. So if u r dt concerned abt OJB,for those of u working,kindly pay into his account. They have a moral obligation to help him but its nt necessary for them to help him. You don't need to be a celeb to be a helper. TO ALL OF you,start saving OJB. I deserve to spend my money the way I like since I worked for it. I satisfy my conscience not people.

To me d worst part is when u r managing ursef nd ur gf calls u dt she nids ur help.dt gets me crying. Secondly,after a tiring day @work nd u her abt to sleep,dts when she calls u dt she is sick,u spend d rest of d nit to console her jst to prove u care nd u cudnt catch ur sleep again.whoosh!!!

For everybody dt thinks u don't nid to go to skl to me rich,pls tell me one billionaire dt made his money starting frm d year 2000 without going to skl.let's stop quoting our grandfathers. D world is now very competitive,we nid to sharpen our skills nd we must av one thing dt differentiates us frm d rest.

Pls how do someone get employed by multichoice nigeria.do they advertise for job placement? What is their salary structure and is it a good place to work.

Pls wch African country can I go to spend my vacation with jst #100,000 minus ghana nd benin republic.

The ability to win games even when u are nt playing well IMO makes u a good team.so forget dz crap dt SE is nt playing well.they t winning games,watelse do u guys want?! I bliv we going to come out tops on sunday #teamNigeria#

Nairalanders,am still waiting for ur reponse. Dz boredom is killing!!

Plz whr r d happening places to catch fun in abeokuta.dz place is so boring jst like a ghost town. All advices will be appreciated

If u meett a girl @ d club,will u automatically assume she is nt a wife material?

Have you ever realized that Nigerians generally have no real grasp of how much money our “leaders” are embezzling and laundering?

Have you ever thought of how much six hundred & twenty eight million naira, five hundred million naira, two billion naira and other similar massive amounts of money that politicians are frequently accused and proven to steal is worth?

Kindly follow my train of thought and bring out a calculator to punch the figures yourselves so that you’ll understand my point fully.

According to several widely known and reliable sources, the average Nigerian lives on less than a dollar per day. This means that the average Nigerian makes or survives on about 30 dollars(less than 5000 naira) every month. That means the average Nigerian earns 60 thousand naira per annum. It would take such a person more than 1,500 years to gross 100,000,000.00 naira.

For the sake of better clarity and understanding, permit me to adjust that value a bit. If you are reading this, chances are high you are one of the fortunate middle class Nigerians who have access to the internet and own a personal computer or at least have access to one.

That means the idea of earning less than 5000 naira monthly is quite unthinkable to you. In fact if you are a working class person, I daresay that you have probably spent 5000 naira yesterday or the last two days combined. As such, you probably earn anywhere within 70, 000 naira to 150,000 naira or more.

It doesn’t matter if you do not agree with those figures; I have just chosen them as dummy values to prove my point, just read on and you can tweak the values as much as you wish when you finish reading.

Now, picking a random value, let us say, 100,000 naira for ease of calculation. As someone born, bred and still living in Nigeria, I know, that anyone who earns 100,000 naira is doing fairly well for himself; after all, the minimum wage the federal government pays is 18,000 naira!

100,000 naira multiplied by 12 months in a year is 1.2 million naira. Dear reader, do you realize that it will take someone earning 100,000 naira monthly almost 90 years to gross (without deductions) 1 hundred million naira. Do you “overstand” what I’m saying yet? Okay, let try a higher figure just for the sake of better comprehension- a 500,000 naira salary.

A 5 hundred thousand naira salary is “as good as it gets” in Nigeria, yet even an individual earning so much earns just 6 million naira per annum. This means it will take such an individual about 17 years of toiling and hard work to gross 1 hundred million naira.

Let’s even get wild about it, say someone who earns 1 million naira monthly (Let’s be honest with ourselves, how many people earn so much? How many people do you personally know who earn so much?). That person will earn 12 million naira yearly and gross 1 hundred million naira after 9 long years.

I hope we haven’t forgotten that those figures are gross figures i.e. no deductions were made. This is apparently an impossible situation as every human being has to satisfy his/her basic and not-so-basic human needs and responsibilities of feeding, housing, clothing, transportation, providing quality education to his/her children, taking care of extended family members, giving to charity and religious institutions, entertainment and the plethora of activities that we engage in as humans.

An objective calculation will show that it is quite frankly, almost impossible to save more than 20% of annual income, especially for low income earners whose salary cannot even meet up with their expenses.

My point in summary is this, our leaders are “swallowing”, both through legal and illegal means amounts of money that will take the average and even well to do Nigerian 3 or 4 lifetimes to net.

I took a look at the proposed budget for 2013 and of course as typical with our “budgets”. Even the most meager things hit the hundred million naira mark. For example, the President wants to spend over 200 million naira on refreshments and meals while his Vice wants over 100 million naira- just for one year!

I’m also sure that we remember that the expenditure to maintain the garden in Aso rock was about 200 million naira.

These are amounts of money we have shown that it would take multiple lifetimes for the everyday Nigerian to gross, yet these amounts are been “swallowed” daily in the corners of power within minutes.

I hope that by recognizing this facts, we would understand why our leaders are so insulated from the suffering of the general populace (They are too comfortable, way too comfortable) and appreciate better how much we are been ripped off when next we hear a politician has “swallowed’ any amount running into hundreds of millions of naira.

Politicians gross hundreds of millions in one day, it will take you & me several lifetimes to do the same.

“One day, bush meat go catch the hunter……”

To me,I tink he needs to be sold,his form is causing too much distraction for chelsea.

Have u ever killed a romantic moment with your partner on purpose?!

Ask her why she wants to come back

As for me ,I will pay to watch Eden Hazard.UP BLUES!!!

More often than not, you meet a young Nigerian babe in her early twenties and the only thing on her mind is “God please take away all this stupid, ‘yeye’, small boys from my path and bless me with a fine man, senior partner in shell or chevron any one would do, a nice house in lekki, phase I or phase II or even banana island  am not too picky, with a master’s degree , well mature, grown and not on  a ‘junior boy level’ “ .ARE YOU KIDDING ME !? There is a real good reason God hasn’t answered your prayers. Are you Mrs. Right do you think you are ready for a man who is set for life a man who has accomplished the “Nigerian dream” a man who can die happy. You need to assess yourself and ask “can I really handle a MR RIGHT?” Supposing you pray to God a million and one times a day for the perfect man and God being the merciful lord that he is grants you the perfect man, the whole package a man who would take you shopping and say “baby go crazy with my credit card” a man who would love you beyond life itself and you are Mrs. Carp, you are whinny, immature, arrogant, illiterate and every other thing that can possible be wrong with a young woman. What happens next? Mr. Right leaves you, find Mrs. Maybe and you are left all alone, cursing at the world asking God why he didn’t give you Mr. Right, well he gave you Mr. Right but were you ready? That is the real question.

As a young woman trying to find a man, you need to specify what you want with discretion. You don’t need a man with 3 houses, or a mansion, why are you asking God for a man with a private jet? Can you fly one? And why on earth are you asking for somebody that has an island. Most girls ask “why do you want me to lower my values to find a man?” Girl, that one is not values oh! Or standards, that one is corporate theft because “Na thief you be! “. I mean If you are  young, in college and you are not dying any time soon, you need to be asking for a guy that would love you, support you, help you advance intellectually, am talking about a guy you can grow with , not the one that you would have to tip toe around because you guys are not comfortable around each other , a type of guy that the two of you can see movies, go clubbing and share significant time for each other , and you never know Mr. right now, may eventually turn to Mr. right.

But if you Get a more mature and let’s say a perfect guy , that has a full-time job , works from 9am to 9pm, is always in one conference or the other , but loves you all the same , is stupidly rich and spends all the money on you . he is right up there  and you are so low compared to his maturity, as a young woman you will feel that you are well equipped to handle such a relationship but you are wrong, you are to have the emotionally immature  to keep up with such a relationship. Of course he is eventually going to leave you because you are a mooch , he is not gaining anything from you and there are millions of more mature women that have earned themselves a ‘perfect’ man like him . You need to STOP looking for the wrong thing in a man and the Wrong man would STOP finding you.

You hear a lot of women using the same phrase “guys around my age are too young for me” but then if you see a guy you that is ‘omo baba olowo’ (has a rich parent) he suddenly becomes you ideal man.  You need to look for people who have ambition, and a means of attaining their goals. But on the other hand if you a looking for a ‘Maga’ find Maga now, let him pay your way through college and buy you the flashiest things, but remember, you can’t eat your cake and have it, would ‘maga’ marry you?, ‘boys don dey sharp up’, be rest assured that he is using you as much as you are using him. So girls do you self a service, work hard for your money and work hard for the type of man you want to end up with. Once you’ve laid the right foundation it doesn’t take too long to get what you want. Don’t wait for anybody to give you what you can get yourself, Grow up with your man, and when you’ve reached a level where you feel he is becoming stagnant or has no passion then you can move of to man who has earned you, but if he is at your pace, the love is there and you guys have so much fun, then what are you looking for Mr. right for? , When he is right in front of you. Now he might be Mr. “please pick your underwear from the floor” or Mr. “why won’t you raise the toilet seat before you pee” but when you have a good man who is growing and maturing with you with time he would definitely be MR. RIGHT.
