Just the woman has this privilege.
It's meant to ensure that married women are close to their husbands. She will submit some document that shows she is indeed married, thereafter, she will be posted to the state you are residing .

However, in your own case, you will have to do direct posting so as to be posted to the state of your choice.

Thank you so much for this.

atiku4President:
Yes. You get a letter of introduction from the place your husband works and request you are posted in the same state

. Does this apply to man also or just the woman?

I am currently 29 years old and planning to get married by October this year. I’m also in my final year at the university, and by the grace of God, I look forward to graduating soon. As part of my post-graduation plans, I intend to participate in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program.

Considering the fact that I’ll be newly married by the time NYSC orientation begins, I’m wondering if opting for the NYSC program could provide any added advantage in terms of being posted close to my family or at least within the same state as my spouse. This would help us settle down properly and adjust to our new life as a young couple.

Interestingly, my wife-to-be is also in her final year, and there’s a high chance that both of us might be going for NYSC around the same period. We strongly believe that serving in a location where we can remain close to each other will not only support our emotional and marital growth, but also help us manage finances better and plan effectively for the future.

Is there a way to influence our postings, possibly with documentation of our marital status, to help NYSC officials consider posting us within the same region or state?

I will be 29yrs by time I graduate this year and I don't want to go for service. How do I escape this or is it possible to pause it for now and go later?

See don't let anyone decieve you oga, wedding nowadays is costly.


You'll see lots of people you didn't even invite my advice for you is to do inhouse marriage if you don't have Money, it should be between your family and her family but if you ever tries to take it to an event hall you'll see shege.


Inhouse of both families marriage budget should be 2 million naira.


A proper medium marriage using an event center your budget will be 8-10 million naira.


I did mine last month so take my advice.

Only cow budge should be 1-1.5 million. 800k cow is so small you'll regret buying it.

This is serious. I am actually not a fan of big wedding. I was looking at 5m as my budget and the wedding date is in first week of December

rickleye:
How many people are you inviting ?
Cost of hall
Cost of meals
Cost of drinks
DJ /Music
Misc 250k
Clothes
Put some figures and you’ll get approximate values.

Thank you for this

idahme:
Don't just use morr than 20% of your savings to do wedding, what is important is the marriage and not tshe wedding day.

so if my saving is 5 million naira, I will just use 1 million do wedding 😂

bigpicture001:
Aside clothing... Budget 1m... Don't buy alcohol drinks...

really? Can 1 million naira actually be enough? if you don't mind, can you give me a well detailed of how the million naira should be spent?

PP123:
hope your fiancee ex no dey Bleep her sha B4 you rush to waste your money on wedding 💍 💒 way go later end in regret

Be very careful that's my advice for you

Okay, thank you

I live in Lagos. My fiancee lives in Ogun State so apparently, we are going to have the wedding in Ogun State not so expensive area.

I just want a medium kind of wedding.

The10thMan:
I Was 26.

Graduated school in 2004. Just before graduation, my mother had advised/suggested that I learn a vocation. ''Handwork'' as she calls it. But for reasons I cannot recall, I did not. A resourceful woman that she is. She knew that a craft or skill could always put food on the table when the chips are down with respect to a graduate's certificate. During NYSC, I taught in a remote village and learnt French. With respect to entrepreneurship, I only thought of buying cheap food stuff and sending to my home state. But I never pulled this through. Eventually, (both during and after NYSC) I choose to apply for various jobs. Any that was available. I needed seed capital for my dream. I recall trekking Trans Amadi Industrial Area in PH dropping CVs to companies. Many oil and gas servicing firms were there. Out of desperation,I even went to Primary and Secondary Schools to look for teaching jobs. Come see their shakara untop my 4.01 Second Class Upper. But I couldn't be bothered. I knew I needed to get a job first, then raise seed capital even if I wanted to start a business. Background was humble and family was just managing. Wrote various aptitude tests for banks like Intercontinental, other banks, Freisland, Diageo, LNG, etc. And another test with an Oil and Gas Agency. The first job I landed was with a bank. Old Generation Bank still existing today. Got a job as a Banking Assistant-Graduate Trainee. Went to Lagos for 1 month training and was posted to the Eastern Part of Nigeria. While in the bank in 2007, the Oil and Gas Agency finally called. Their recruitment took super long. Left/dumped the bank like crazy. Resigned without thinking twice. Salary in the Bank was 59,000 monthly back then. One of the lowest paying.

In my new job, housing allowance was 1.6 Million annually. Salary about 200k monthly. Not to mention hazard, offshore, etc. allowances. I was 26. I recall I called up my friends in the bank and jokingly told them they are all small boys.. . Teasing them and telling them how if I wanted to I could buy a car every year. By God's grace, Finances have never gone below 1 million naira. Savings alone with Work Staff Cooperative Society is multiple millions. ONE IMPORTANT THING IS I KEEP MY LIABILITIES AND EXPENSES LOW and still do. Never believed in the ''I need to upgrade so people know I have arrived'' mentality. I dont need any man or fine girl to see me as ''A Big Boy''. I successively acquired 4 properties. 2 Lagos and 2 back home. Built first house in Lagos. Added two shops to the front section. Completed and rented all flats and shops out. I still live in a rented apartment. It is cheaper for me to stay there than in my house. However, money in the bank and dormant salary/income doesn't bring returns. Money is a messenger and money doesn't like being idle. You need to send it on good errands to bring more money, and the cycle continues. Also, there is time value of money and money depreciates. With all these at the back of my mind, I urgently needed to transfer a lot of my finances into assets that will generate income. This is still my biggest challenge today. How to identify good investment opportunities. I focused greatly on developing my skills and developing myself professionally in my area of expertise/discipline. I eventually set up a Consulting Firm/Company in my area of expertise with freelance workers. I read a lot, pay for courses myself. I do not always wait for my organisation to train me. All these coupled with work sponsored courses ensured I knew my onions in my field. I love to read about wealth creation and financial intelligence. I have a crazy collection of over 20 books. Kiyosaki, Trump, etc. and I love watching Grant Cardone, Tai Lopez etc. on Youtube at my spare time just for encouragement. My job is still there by Gods grace and I am rising through the ranks. Consulting firm is growing strong. Now Consult for both Upstream and Downstream Companies. Trying my best to brand the company with a good website, good brand image, modernized logo, etc. Currently, I have the desire to open a conglomerate to diversify to various sectors. Picture Dangote Group. Called up a lawyer for advice. I intend to go into a lot of business ventures. Recently, I realized that needed daily revenue. No need to wait till end of month for pay or wait till companies pay for contracts executed. Some companies can owe you for ages on completed jobs. My Consulting brings money but you have to chase contracts and bids etc. Plus, contracts dont come easy. Also, price war between contractors drives down profit margins a lot. So, currently planning to open a Mini Plaza with a lounge anywhere after Ajah Axis in Lagos. Searching for property currently. Need something with daily returns so the idea that I should open my own Lounge/Bar/Cafe with a small plaza for sharwama,asuun,nkwobi, fried potatoes etc.I have always pictured myself closing from work and going to handle my business at the Lounge. Watch customers eat, drink, chat, laugh and merry. That is my next project. Also, intend to follow Grant Cardone's idea-''build multi-family dwelling housing in a property instead of a single family unit''. So picture 1 bedroom self-cons instead of a gigantic big duplex. With the multi dwelling units you are sure of some rent. Intend to do this with the other land in Lagos.


ONE BIG MISTAKE I MADE WAS NOT LISTENING TO MY LATE MUM. Like I hinted, she practically forces all her kids to learn a vocation/a skill regardless of how highly educated you are.All my sisters can sew, cook, bake, make soap, grill fish etc. Personally, she wanted me to learn Welding and Fabrication. Perhaps, I felt I was too educated for it or something, but I never did. Perhaps by now I would have been constructing Sky scrappers and handling huge projects with my current knowledge and exposure.

All in All I am GRATEFUL.

Taken liberty to post a few diagrams to educate people in a glimpse about financial intelligence. How the rich use income to create assets that generate more income. And how the poor use income to create liabilities that keeps them poor. The poor spend money on liabilities. To them that is ''enjoying'' life. The rich spend on assets. These assets are GOODS,SERVICES, PROCESSES that can solve human/society's problems. In Economics, this is called UTILITY or VALUE. Utility can be TIME UTILITY (You help people save time), and/or FORM UTILITY (You produce something in a way people want it) and/or PLACE UTILITY (You bring something closer to people so they easily reach it). Humans naturally want value and so they take decisions on any thing that will give them least risk, least effort, cost them less time and highest value/less money. The wealthy and wealth creators realize this and do not really focus on the money but focus on solving problems (creating utility) which people are willing to pay them money for. The rich get seed capital, invest it to create wealth. The poor/managing get seed capital and buy liabilities that even put them into more debt.

THE WHOLE WORLD NEEDS FINANCIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL INTELLIGENCE SHOULD BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS.

BluntBoy:
So, the church is the place to address political issues?

The Bible gave guidelines on what to do when we come together as a church.

The sooner you people come to terms with who these so-called pastors are, the better it would be for Christianity.

where else do you want him to address it?

semyman:
All these fraudsters were not only funded by their gullible morons, I learnt that they enjoyed a lot of looters patronage, government waivers and donations.
By the 2nd tenure, the remaining ones on the hangers they can not afford the parking fees will be auctioned.
Let them concentrate on bigger auditoriums as morons and slaves will always be with us

you better don't implicate yourself by typing rubbish about the man of God.

Brunosamel:
I know most of the guys here in nairaland will blast me and tell me all sorts of bullshits but the truth is bitter, after being leftout and heart broken by the girl I love so much, I made up my mind that girls will never play with my heart again so I went online in search for help and got it with a havy magic weapon the book 'How to make girls chase by chase Amante' i read the book for 100% and practise every single exercise in the book... It works like magic I started with with my level mate before I knew what was going on I have already bleeped seven girls in a month, I was like Oh my God I have arrived I will deal with girls since they play with my heart... I became a player and womanizers to extent I was able to disvirgin a girls but she left me after discovering I was a player... I continue my journey to become the Motherfucker but to tell you the truth I wasn't fulfilled at all... I was meeting different kinds of girls inviting them over using my magic weapon against them... Everything change when I met a girl currently my girlfriend and the woman I will love to spend the rest of my life with.... Initially my intention was Bleep her but I was shocked when i discovered she was a virgin and in my mind I was Today is your lucky day I use my magic weapon but it turns out to be a fiasco... For the first time in a long run a girl didn't fall for my magic.... To cut the story shot.

She told me that, she can't give me what I want, she said I have to earn it, there are way other thing she can offer other than sex. I was shocked that's was when my life change, my prespective about girl change and I realize I was going astary, I had change for good atleast let me Give love one more trial.... it took me complete 9 months for make her fall for me and agreed to be my woman and am enjoying every moment I have been with her and I love her like no other, although a night came she asked me deflower, but it wasn't the right thing to do cuz I was enjoying love, affection and the happiness that was missing my answer was 'NO' told her it was not the right thing to do and when the time comes I will be the happiest guy to unravel the Under....

My Advice to guys out there, most of us think girls are cheat but the truth is that there are decent, responsibe, truthful, honest good and amazing girls that will offer you a wonderful and fulfilling life apart from sex... Sex is important in a relation but It doesn't determine the good fate of a relationship... Don't let sex making you to miss out the things that matters in a relationship.....

This is a big issue. An issue indeed. Tech has damaged your social life. Exchange that phone ASAP for a nokia torchlight. It's time to reconnect back to nature.

what's this one saying ?

Yoshy:
Heard of Social Anxiety disorder?

Let me prove further, most times, its overwhelming to be around lots of people.

You over analyze yourself in public and everything you do.

You feel someone, somewhere is watching you when outside?

The above mentioned disorder is a mental sickness (it doesn't connote negativity) and can be treated. Research about it to know more.

okay

Orla234:
What's it that's affecting your self esteem?

Please do well to isolate them all and deal with it.

For starters, do you think you're not good enough? You don't think you don't fit in cos of your status? ...

Just have the mindset that no one is better than you notwithstanding of your circumstances.

You're the best version of you, so why limit yourself.

Go on. Own who you're. Be proud of you.

Highlight your strengths and watch your "weaknesses" fade.




*OK I understand now, it's about them marks op. Don't let that dull your shine dear OP. Please. Rise above it*

thanks I really appreciate your advises and I will try to work on my self_esteem

missuzoma:
This ailment is called aqueous pruritis. It afflicts a lot of people. It has nothing to do with water, soap or towel. You can reduce the problem by not wiping your body vigorously with towel after bathing. Just pat your body with the towel or allow the water dry on your body without wiping.

okay thanks I will also try this
