Well, in my own case, Dangote simply layed us off while still on probation without any known reason till date. Some actually spent 7 months on probation instead of 6 months stated in the offer letter, the remaining half spent 5 months before the termination of appointments. About 800 of us employed as infamous Truck Officers. We're still in court of arbitration to get our benefits because he didn't give us our due benefits throughout the short period that we worked with him. The salary was nothing to write home about, we were just hoping that things would improve after the confirmation of our appointments as permanent staff. The job was equally stressful in a poor working conditions. Even to discharge your duty, you had to spend one third of your meager salary (photocopies of work-related documents, constantly recharging your lines to call six drivers several times a day, everyday, data subscription for the job, unending transport cost within the factory, etc)
If I'm invited for the same job today, I will gladly pass. Because, people always asked me if something was wrong with me at the time due to too much stress.

Just look at him. I said this severally that Dangote just benefits from the system and enjoys stiffling the system under the cover of helping us.

Its only President Yar"Adua that understood him at kept where he belonged. Yar"Adua never liked his very capitalist and dangerous business models. Unfortunately he died prematurely in office. God bless his soul.

Even the lack of interest in developing the railway in the country especially for haulage is being stiffled by the likes of Dangote because of the massive fleet of trailers he and other hawks have invested in.

Same monopoly and "cabalism" that he engineered in the cement industry, he is replicating in the petroleum refining/downstream sector.

Yeah. Got hired into a multinational and worked a few years before I was sacked. I was young and naïve, worked with 'multinational pride', to the extent of calling my direct boss by his first name ( forgetting we're all Nigerians working in Nigeria). The guy (my manager) benched me with seat belt, giving my colleagues tasks to execute and leaving me out. When Nigeria slided into recession, viola!!! the guy recommended me and mostly other guys from my tribe to be sacked(people from my tribe are seen as threats because of our smartness, no pride intended),we were all sacked. Then I earned about 450k.

Worked in a couple of other companies, moving from one to another as offers kept getting better and to the glory of God, I have at sight a salary of 7 figures every month.

Lesson learnt: the first attribute you need to progress after attitude, is loyalty. REM you're not indispensable, before you someone was doing it and after you, someone will do it!

Biodun556:
Why Diversion of Coastal Highway to East-West Road Is A Masterstroke — And South-South Is Not Deceived

Since the Honourable Minister of Works, Senator Engr. David Umahi, announced President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's directive to divert the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway through the existing East-West road from Ondo to Edo, critics have shouted "South-South deceived."

As someone who stands with the Federal Government on this project, let me explain why this diversion is not betrayal, but engineering wisdom.

1. THE SWAMP WOULD HAVE SWALLOWED TRILLIONS

The original coastal route from Ogun to Ondo is not land. It is ocean swamp. Umahi disclosed they encountered pits 10 to 20 metres deep — that is 30 feet of water and mud. You pour sharp sand today, the Atlantic carries it tomorrow. To build a 6-lane concrete highway on that terrain would cost N30 billion per kilometre and still collapse.

Mr. President's instruction — "Divert, do not do any new alignments. Pass the coastal highway through the existing East-West road" — saved Nigeria from waste.

2. EAST-WEST ROAD ITSELF NEEDED RESCUE

Every Nigerian knows East-West road — Ughelli, Patani, Ahoada, Bayelsa — is a death trap every rainy season. It was built 40 years ago before climate change. The President's new plan is to raise the entire road by 2 metres above flood level, with reinforced concrete, solar lights and proper drainage.

This is two projects in one: South-South gets a flood-proof, concrete highway, and the coastal highway still moves forward.

3. THE PURPOSE IS STILL SERVED

The initial purpose of Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway was never to count how many coastal villages you pass. It was to:
a) Connect Lagos Deep Sea Port to the South-South and South-East
b) Reduce travel time from Lagos to Calabar from 12 hours to 5 hours
c) Open up trade for 30 million Nigerians
d) Create toll revenue for government

All four purposes are still achieved. The 45km Benin Bypass will even save drivers from Benin City traffic. A businessman moving goods from Eko Atlantic or Lekki Port to Calabar will still use this same road.

4. CALABAR IS STILL THE DESTINATION

The road has not stopped. Section 5 — 82km in Akwa Ibom — is under construction. The 67km Sections 4A and 4B in Ogun/Ondo are being filled. The diversion is only 104km from Ondo to Edo, after which the alignment continues to Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and terminates in Calabar, Cross River. South-South governors including Sheriff Oborevwori have commended the decision.

CONCLUSION

Those saying South-South was deceived are playing politics. The South-South was not deceived — the South-South was saved from having two abandoned roads. Today we will have one strong, flood-proof, concrete highway that still goes from Lagos to Calabar.

Tinubu is not building Lagos only. He is building Nigeria with engineering sense.

South-South is still connected. The road still reaches Calabar.

Politics › Re: See How An Angry Nigerian Stabbed Tinubu's Image On A Billboard by Gotocourt: 8:46pm On Oct 12
dgr8truth:
We should not tolerate actions like this. Disliking the president is not enough reason to endorse or encourage political hostility. We cannot, on the one hand, complain about the hostile environment in which opposition parties are forced to campaign and, on the other hand, applaud the very actions that contribute to such an atmosphere.

This is unacceptable. Our politics should never degenerate to this level. We must learn to conduct ourselves with civility and restraint, even when we disagree. The proper place to express our anger and dissatisfaction with a government is at the polls, not through hostility, intimidation, or the promotion of hatred.

We should all have the best interests of the country at heart. In the long run, a more civil and tolerant political culture will serve us all better, regardless of which party or candidate we support.
Snatch, grab and run is what angry.

I have a Ford transit T260. Recently, the van just developed a faulty. In motion, the brake will automatically be engaged and stop the van. Until the gas inside the savo brake was released by pulling out the pipe by the savo. Have changed the savo and the master brake, but the issue still persists. WHAT COULD BE THE ISSUE?
I spoke with someone with this type of vehicle, he said you should check for bent hose/brake fluid lines. All the calipers be pieced, likely a rusted pin case.

TheStoriesOfMan:
These governors wan run Tinubu street.

They want Tinubu to give them ad libitum power so that they can oppress, rig and set up machinery for a grand winning.

It will also present some turncoats with the opportunity to work against APC for their own benefits.

Overall, this is not a good political calculation. Tinubu should know better.

For health reasons I understand. But...
All this stunts is for campaign money 💰. Chop and clean mouth grin.

Gbogboski:
The Nigerian army is at the weakest position it has ever been since independence. They can't take the fight to the enemy, their moral is very low, their renumeration is nothing to write home about, their motivation to fight and die for the country is non existent.

It is only a matter of time before the collapse happen. If the army, the one organisation that should hold the country together is such in a bad shape and from the look of things, nothing is being done to remedy the situation, I don't think the country can continue for long.

Any organisation or person the Igbos boycott should do a soul searching about themselves.
In the video I watched, a soldier said they should take the fight to the bandits.
