Hello Everyone. NIGERIAN SECURITY CONTRACTORS ARE CHEATS. It is no longer news that security companies are springing up all over the place like Mushrooms a good number of them unregistered and some operating from their homes and the Government is doing nothing about it. When are they going to act? I hope that it is not till kingdom come. Never in all of my life have I heard in the news nor read in the trades in a civilized country other than in Nigeria where security employees are cheated grossly and relegated to the background, where security employees are treated like as though they are not among. Bothered by this development I went around interviewing security employees and by God what did they tell me. some of them wondered why they who do the job and put their lives on the line, stay up all night under the very insatiable and ever thirsty mosquitoes only at the end of the month to get paid a miserable six-thousand five hundred Naira; some of the very lucky one’s get eight-thousand naira and their employer’s expect a very sound thank you sir from them. The truth is that this security company owner get paid huge sums of money! a good number of them wondered aloud why for humanity’s sake they who do the job can’t get paid as agreed to between their boss and contracting company; which is 70/30.70percent to the lose prevention officer attached to the concerned contract and 30 percent to the security company. Their bosses turned around and gave them 30 percent! When at the end of their working years with these organizations they know they won’t get paid any gratuity or allowance’s from these security organs; because the company that gave away the job to these security contractor believed that they have paid everything including the concerned individual’s gratuity and any form of allowance(s) to the contractor who will in all their wrongfulness use people’s would have been gratuity to acquire almost unbelievable luxuries. The security man knew solidly well that all this are done with his money, but what can he do? if he dared to write or ask for an upward review of his salary, the boss will tell him that he won’t get it and warn him sternly to either stay put with that salary or quickly get out the door. Not failing to remind him that thirty or more people are eagerly waiting to take over from him for five Thousand Five Hundred for his six thousand five hundred luxury position. This development is not, not fair. This is fraud on the part of these contractors, this is fraud on the part of government for pretending that it does not know that many Nigerians have virtually become slaves in their own country. I want to use this medium to appeal to the President Musa Yar’adua to please use the power the Nigerian Constitution vests on him to declare these security companies and anything that is called cheating hiding under the guise of contract irrelevant and therefore illegal.These organization’s especially the security companies have striped and taken away future livelihood of many Nigerians. In other Countries where they know the value of security men, they are handsomely paid and treated well because for them they know that their very lives depend on how fast their security men can act. This is one fact that is either not available to the Nigerians and Companies in Nigeria, that patronize security organs or they just choose not to care. how on earth can a man who is not well paid therefore can’t feed well decide to lay down is one and only precious life for a boss who the security men knew that he the boss knows that the security man are not well paid by the organization he contracted the Job to? I also want to use this medium to appeal to employers of labour both individual and industrial to please for the sake of the survival of the average man to shun these deceitful and ill-directed organizations. whose dealings with the average Nigerian reeked of ruthless abandon. The unregistered security companies must be closed down forever. While the registered ones must be made to pay their employees like humans as the real contract terms arrived at. The federal government must make companies operate regarding treatment of our citizens according to the laws of our country.some companies can not claim not to know that their lose prevention officers are not treated. Outsourcing is not suppose to be cheating. Security companies as far as Nigeria is concerned is about cheating:this must stop. |
THE POLICE, WHY THE BRIBE? It is common knowledge even among children as young as six years old that the police collects bribe (egunje). What they don’t know yet, but will soon find out because of their unquenchable guest for knowledge. Is that the Road Safety men, their brothers in corruption are also bribery experts and never before seen specialists. The police public relations officers are not doing a good enough job on their part. I should be darned if I say I don’t know that their so called public relation men parade themselves around telling any body who cared to listen that the police is your friend. But utterly failed to constantly remind the police, that we the civilian are their friends and that they are to service to the people. Bail is free human rights activities shouted out to any Nigerian who would give his or her ear for a split second, the human rights activists in their never before seen total commitment to the improvement of the rights of the Nigerian masses. Went to great lengths to see to it that their pet dream come true in Nigeria, But by the by the police also went to great lengths to ensure that their hard work comes to nothing. By going a head to collect bail from Nigerians without court orders for things as common as Fraca. For mankind sake this is not what we want our future generations to practice? So we must act and act real fast to bringing it to the barest minimum, if not totally eradicating it. Now where do we start? I suggest we start by franking telling the police inspector general, Mr. Mike Okiro to without delay tender his letter of resignation to the president. If he fail or are afraid to challenge, tackle and eventually eradicate corruption in the police and its affiliates in Nigeria. By the by there are some policemen who have proved themselves worthy of emulation, Worthy of being policemen. In their total commitment in service to the people, who I dare say deserved to be honoured with the Order of the Federal Republic (OFR). If they in all their wrongfulness don’t perform, then somebody tell me what we want then for if not to serve us. Afterall they are being paid with taxpayers hard earned money. The open confidence and calmness with which the men of the police force now extort money from transporters. Equaled with stoned silence from quarters of the police from where restraint is suppose to come. Suggest some cold facts: that either they in the police high command are getting a feel of the action I mean feed back or they simply can’t control the men vested on them by government. I hereby call on all men and officers of the police, Road Safety, Customs and Immigration. Who are not ready to use their respective positions to effect discipline over one another and repaint good the Nigerian Image they damaged and stop portraying every single Nigerian that traveled out of the country as potential or criminal minded. Because of what they have made into an habit to resign their positions without delay and give way to those who are ready to make discipline and unreserved service to the people. Their Watchword. I am a total supporter of the police reform but not just the police, The customs and the immigration too under normal circumstances the policeman in order to effect his duties properly needed to be well paid, housed and properly dressed at work. The police carrying long rifles about all the time looks barbaric and out dated. Folks believe me, if the police are well kitted. Say, they put on sleeves and wear a tie before putting on the black jacket, carry individual radio so as to be able to be in touch and get in touch at will, carry a pistol in place of that long jungle rifle and wear a good head gear like the ones only officers in the Nigerian Police wore. They would sweep Nigerians off their feet’s. Because everyone would definitely fall in love with the new police. And then the police would have the total respect of almost all Nigerians. Who said the American people love their police merely because they hardly lack in ensuring that justice is done. But also because they are well dressed and good mannered and also respect the civilians rights, always never failing to inform a suspect of his right to an attorney and his right to remain silent if he don’t want to talk without his lawyer around, of his right to know that whatever he says could be used against him and will be used against in court. Ever advising him or her of the need to get an attorney before giving any statement never failing to read out his or her rights to him or her or carrying out an arrest before asking anyone any question. This is where the Nigerian Police failed and will continue to fail until they stop recruiting illiterate’s. And stop making the police recruits at the training camps go through dehumanizing treatments. That is where the system becomes scary. Why? on earth will a sane man dehumanize someone and expect this same person to go out and not dehumanize people? I take it upon myself to believe the system called the police is a system totally crazy, for how on earth will you dehumanize someone and expert that someone to observe human rights, someone you definitely know will at the end of the day work among sane humans?. It won’t work, it can’t work, it is not working. So I advice that the government shelve the whole rubbish called dehumanization and start training them (the recruits) to observe the rights of the people to whom they eventually will go serve. To stop thinking that they are above the law and that the people are at their service. To always charge matters to court before twenty-four hours elapse and to know that they had no right to detain any body without trial. But by the by the Nigerian Police would coax and trick one into making statements without informing the person of his rights and proceed to use it against this same person. It is not fair at all and never had been fair all along. The federal government should be made to know that they are abusing the very human rights of the men and women who enroll for police service and therefore be dehumanization of our young men and women. Our young men and women who intent to enroll or who are all ready going through this insensitive and cruel damage that is being done to them under the cruel joke of training, should know that the damage that they have experience or about to experience will outlive them. Therefore they must stand up in unison and drag the government to court. So as to abolish this wicked gesture that is been unleashed on them by government. That, I believe is the only way our future generation will be saved from being turn from sane and sensible people to semi deranged and cruel people. So when next a police man goes mad and shoot someone or brutalize someone due to gross insensitivity then Nigerians must know that there are some of the skills he acquired from his passage through the through the dehumanization process. We should know were to point fingers and accuse the federal government of Nigerian. In recent time, the Lagos State Governor Mr. Babatunde Fashola advised that street urchin’s and robbers who are not ready to quit their dastardly trade to leave the state, an opportunity arose and as usual with crooked-minded police men was quickly utilize to extort money from member’s of the public men who choose to wear dread-locks for the men and low waist pants for women; some people most of whom live legally were forced to part with hard-earned money. Am not saying that hoodlums or people disturbing the peace were not detected and arrested using this method, but how about situations where people provided good-enough proof of their means of livelihood and are advised or forced to part with money or land in police station with triumphed-up charge’s. We will have a better society if the police will be honest to us and live up to their responsibilities. Nigerian’s sure will show them real love and learn to trust them completely. |
Hello Everyone. Have you experienced someone walk up to you purposefully and without a word of greeting ask you for a favour or direction?it is crazy! Parents who"forgot"to teach their children how to say a word of greeting to their elders are the very person(s)who will feel so bad should one not say a word of greeting to them.do you know that? They fail woefully to take charge of their homes but are etching to control other people. What is your experience? |
Hello. Don't go near any general hospital in Nigeria.go to a private hospital. There are many fine dentist on the island:though the cost is high you don't want to risk a general hospital! ![]() |
Hello Everyone. These days,we are inundated with news of different person(s)dieing in London hospitals.it seems from the express announcements both in the print media and one to one discussion that it is done with glee. To die in a London hospital(s)now seem like a status symbol amongst certain class of people. Illiteracy of the mind is one big issue in Nigeria! That is not to say that we have a good health system here,not at all:i have heard person(s)die from complications of pile,fibroid and many surgeries that our doctors are supposed to be able to go over like a minor thing.these same doctors go abroad and do very well in their choosen fields!the poor salary structure here, must be a major contributor. In a country where the latest estimates put it this way:30 doctors to 100,000 patients and 3 nurses to 30 patients.why won't our hospitals be death traps?(most of them)yet our doctors and nurses troop out of the country on a weekly basis. The national assembly should as a matter of urgency initiate and pass a bill to address this grim trend or we can as well expect the worse. ![]() |
Hello. The ASIWAJU AHMED BOLA TINUBU AND FASH BOBOBABATUNDE FASHOLA! They are the best ever!! The city of Lagos shows their delligence to duty. ![]() |

Hello Everyone. Which will you honestly prefer,regular girls,in Nigeria more women than not makes themselves the man responsibility on accepting his proposal for a date and subsequently relationship. In some cases he even becomes the breadwinner or the woman's family. Pls note that marriage is a different issue. Irregular girl:never ask for anything order than money for"services" provided. Guys,which do you prefer? ![]() |
Hi Everyone. Do yurselves a world of good:read the satanic verses by Salman Rushdie and who is this Allah by G.J.O Moshay. I play with all religion but Islam sets itself apart.it is no religion of peace as is widely being proclaimed by many muslims. ![]() |
Hello Everyone. Very often our collective psych have been taken to task of very worrisome"discoveries"that would have been better left the way they are,dead.it will interest you to know that these"discoveries" were found out by some members of the"house". These"discoveries" leave most of us with very worrisome thoughts about the people we supposedly elected"or selected?" And now for the grand games of the"house"they the "house" will then proceed to allocate unbelievable sums for hurriedly constituted panels of enquiries?whose findings will never be made public,who then was the panel of enquiry constituted to educate?or was it because they were broke?(the house)so they have to"get" some monies from the public treasury anyway;whether or not we the real government like it or not! No public officials in any other country this world knows the art of grandstanding like that of Nigeria. ![]() |
@poster so u suggest we all shuld start takin beer? Undecided Yes and no.yes because it is good for all:except for person(s)with health problems. No,because you have your life to live and whether or not researchers say it is okay one can decide against it. ![]() |
Hello. It is wickedness should a hospital refuse to administer treatment to a person in dire need of such.many person(s) have lost their lives because of the fear of what the police will do to such institutions. The hospital should as a matter of fact treat such people and then call in the police to investigate:what better means are there to save a life and apprehend a felon? ![]() |
Hi. It must have been poisoned:fura de nunu is very good for human consumption:it is very nutritious ![]() And have been enjoyed by many,including this poster. ![]() |
Hi Everyone. It might come to one as a not sure health advise but scientists who were conducting research on the human brain and its activity had concluded more than a year ago research that a bottle of beer a day is good for one's better neuro functions! The scientists said that beer is got properties(the alcohol)that kills the weaker cells leaving only the very able ones. They went ahead to say that should one exceed one bottle the result may be catastrophic! The alcohol after killing the weak cells will if one is on the excessive side of consumption go ahead and damage vital neuro cells. So for those of us who are waiting for the perfect excuse or looking for justification for the"life" should exercise care. |
Hey. Obama is the next best candidate;that does not imply that when and if he becomes president he will send more aid Africa's way or that Africans will have visaless access to the US:that country's foreign policy hardly ever changes. |
Dear Ayinba1. Pity you google things up,i don't. ![]() I am not here to criticise.am here to show some of us who apparently are in the dark to sEE. The good book admonishes:my people perish for lack of knowledge. |
Hi lady. The catholic church are faithful with one of their very popular prayer lines"holy mary mother of God pray for us" Does God have a mother?or is Jesus God to them? It amazes me how foolish most of us can get and sometimes remain in the name of religion! The dark history of the church is simply about the Catholic church. In God's holy name they perpertrated all the atrocities in the past. The holy see that has passed on apologies on behalf of the Catholic church. Should you do research on the history of the Catholic church;you won't go near that church. As for you Olabowale.think before you rush to your computer to type and past. The original Allah that was referred to in the Quran is not the same as widely being proclaimed now by very enligthend muslims.That Allah was the chief of 350 gods in the kabba in Mecca. Don't just rush out in excitement thinking you have a new and explosive info for us.am sure i know the Quran more than you:for if you have trully read and studied the Quran you won't be this excited.

@poster ASL33. This is childish i think, what have you not seen before? Do u want them to wear suit? Most of us have seen beach volleyball but one has to appreciate the spirit of adventure. This guy is simply cOOL,i mean Agaba. Why are you being critical like this?it was not constructive at all. Why did you not throw a stunt like this? Abeg learn to appreciate jo. ![]() |
@poster javalove. i'm soo sure none of u read that post. una just dey run una mouth anyhow, read it, attack the post not the person or the muslims, Open your eyes javalove and read between the lines of oyoibadan's copy and paste.yes he scanned or copied those pages.he did not type them from his memory. I have been in search of the truth all my life and know this;i have been on this religion reseach for over ten years and am still on it. I wrote those lines from memory;i did not take one final look at my books or articles of reseach.and it is benefit of person(s)like you who apparently haven't read and digested or done your own share of religious research. The men who wrote those books(on Islam and Allah)i investigated their backgrounds and found out that some of them were muslims before becoming christians and they weren't writing to spite muslims or from a biased point of view.they were very intelligent men who weren't writing for fame or gain though fame and gain came on them. Know this too that i have read lot s of books and articles from muslim brothers;it is purely to spite christians and Jesus,WHY? TRUTH is no one can question Jehovah for ordering the Israelite's of old to wage war against their enemies and his enemies.He is God and all his ways are just and he knew not sin,Alleluia! My gross with the Catholic church and Islam is that they deffer worship that is due to God and God alone to lesser beings.even Jesus did not crave worship;he reminded people that he is from his father who is in heaven.and that the will of God be done! If he wanted worship he won't say all those words. And one thing i found out is that should a muslim say degrading word in front of a christian(about Jesus) he will hardly get angry to want to start an holy war.this is not so with most muslim brothers;they just get worked up and want to put that person(s)light out. Change is the only condition that is permanent! |
@poster why don't you worry about God forgiving you, before canvassing sympathy for the devil? I don't have worries about God forgiving me:i am not canvassing sympathy for satan,i am helping people to come to an understanding that they haven't pondered or reasoned through yet. The only reason for the disagreement still between father and son is because son the devil is full of pride and is yet to bow before Jehovah;creator of all things and ask for forgiveness! What makes you think God could not have destroyed satan in an instant for his effrontery?Because he loved all his creation with a passion and wanted all to see the super-brilliant future he has for all.he wanted none to perish but all to repent and attain to life everlasting. |
Hi. There have been miracles when word of God is preached in spirit and truth. That is not to say that some miracles in many Nigerian churches aren't intricate set-ups. There are fake prophets all over the world.the US and Nigeria is loaded with them. Pray my brethren and use your head.the guide book for christians clearly stated it:in the last days false prophets shall arise,misleading even the choosen ones. Use your brains and ask God for understanding lest thou be mislead. If u shyne your eyez well nobody go fit take u 4 a ride. ![]() |
Hello Everyone. There is always a notion of uncertainty or outright disdain in most homes of this mean world when ever satan the devil is mentioned. We must all understand that this gentleman called satan original sin was craving worship that belong to Jah and Jah alone. Note satan's skill at accomplishing any of his mission(s)he makes a fellow man do the hurting of another man or takes permission from God before proceeding to temp a man. Whether the person(s)involved die in the process it is temptation anyway. Satan himself tries to and always seem to absolve himself of all blame.he puts himself in a position of no compromise.this guy is very,very smart. What make you think that lastly satan won't fall down on his face and in total submission:cry out to God for forgiveness? God said i will have mercy on whom i will have mercy.this word puts God in a position whence should he forgive satan and anyone crys out and says why God?he will refer that person(s)to that statement of fact! ![]() |
Hi everyone. Well said,but know this.senator Obama is a blackman,therefore he had to be very careful with issues that concern any country in Africa for now. If he acceept such good measures mrs Okereke whence the American electora law state in parts that a presidential aspirant in that country must not accept funds from non US citizens. Senator McCain is a conning and very sleek guy who has been known to do anything he can to get a shot at success.he won't hesitate to use it against senator Obama. |
Hello. Yes there were no christians in Nigeria then,not one;but there is the mass of land that is later to be called Nigeria and the people there prayed to the gods who they believed in and believe it or not those gods gave them victory in wars and territorial conquest and answered and grant them their wishes. The people of old here or in Africa before they harangued us into accepting Christianity.worshiped gods and God though they did not have a specific guidebook then. But they have conscience and that guided them. ![]() |
Hello Everyone. Everyone blames the devil for what he did and did not encourage people to do. If you where to be in Satans place at the beginning of the system of things,what would you have done? |
Hello. The bible did not encourage anyone to put marks,so some of our ancestors are guilty of tribal marks that they put on their children.(tattoos are marks you know)i fancy tattoos i did rather have semi,than permanent one though. I can't remember exactly what verse but it is in the old testament. ![]() |
Hello Everyone. Read Ecclesiastic 9:5, the living are conscious that they will die;but as for the dead they are conscious of nothing at all, all that your hand finds to do,do with your very power,for there is no work,nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in the grave.the place to which we are going. ![]() |
Hello. Yes.we have properties for rent/lease at Lekki and on the island,Ikoyi,V/i,Lagos island and environs. |
Hi Cgift. Be very careful how you open your mouth,read your write-up over and over again before pasting.that my friend,is a warning. That paste was not intended for you rather it is intended for person(s) that want hassle free living quarters. A gentleman paid 24m a year as rent for some years less than 3 months ago for someone else,not himself or family member,how about that?you live in a different world from mine and you do business with different people from mine. I don't and really don't care where you live and how you live,i live on the island and i know many persons that pay 239 thousand naira for two weeks in Ikoyi and V/i. And i did not put the rent dues on that house;the owner who bought it for hundreds of millions and spent tens of millions to put it in super shape did. Please,be very careful. ![]() |
Hey lawyer. That was insightful and real good;you deserve every job you will get and i will work with you.first rate info. ![]() |
