Informative! But not sure Nigerian banks issue Credit cards atall.

They do. Stanbic and StanChart have sent me several emails and even calls to come gey a credit card.

It is not out of place to be randomly picked after general checks, especily for people who did were curiousky relaxed and checked last.

I and 2 other Nigerian pilgrims were picked for extra search in same Madina airport last year. We were the last to undergo the general checks.i dont like rushing.


Our passport were ceased and we were taken to another room for extra check. I underwent scan twice. I was relaxed because I didnt have anything to fear.

I had similar experience of extra search un Edinburgh airport in Scotland in 2013.

Just cooperate with them. I guess rhe Nasarawa pilgrims were uncooperative

Ijaya123:
Is that the right thing to do?

Definitely not. My point is, it is believable.

ashkenking:
Why person go smuggle Dis type of car.. hard to believe..

What's hard there?

You know how much custons duty they are trying to save?

Best: Toyota ForeRunner (2005 model) - Enjoyed the car. Very rugged.

Worst: Range Rover (2007 model) - Got it as a tokunboh and registered it myself. After some months, had gear issue that defied all efforts. Changed it twice at about 350k each time, spoilt again within few weeks. It was draining my finances. It was a nightmare. I used it for less than 2 years and sold it off.

Afam4eva:
What exactly does the competition entail? Is it like a quiz or physical competition?

Physical competition.

The problem with this is it doesn't give details.

What drove the fall from $78 to $23 in per barrel production cost?

Is it technology? Is it fall in hire rate for rig?

I expect the GGM to state that.

Production cost bbl is not some form of regulated cost that can change by fiat. It contains elements that make it. Which of the elements reduced or got off?

Fair enough on the entry level - experienced hire angle but the bigger distinction is in length and use.

CV is longer and more detailed, like a profile you submit to the National Assembly when about to be nominated for a political position.

Resume is shorter and compressed, like that of a job seeker.

So someone can have both a CV and a resume depending on the purpose.

In any case, they are most times used interchngeably and there are cultural prefeences too. It is more popular to use CV for both in Nigeria (and many other countries), resume is more popular in other countries

Exponental:
We have seen a lot on seat belt, we have heard a lot on seat belt, we even know a lot on seat belt BUT not until it becomes a law, more than 80% of Nigerians don't care.

It's already a law.

Have you done hepatitis test?

Hvae you done scan for your liver and kidneys?

At very senior management or executive level, especially in a government owned company no problem; at lower levels, not encouraged.

Biggty:
This is serious oh

Kwara/Ilorin people are the most foolish set of people that i have come across.

How can u serve the Father and also serve his Son, soon they will serve the grandson. I pray they break free from Saraki Shackles

Non-Kwarans also served the father (as Senate Leader in the Second republic) and currently serving the son as current Senate President.

Can you "non- foolish" guys remove the log on your eyes first?

Oyinbos call them "African experts"in foreign websites. All these Naija newspaper vendor stand analysts that take their "analyses" to foreign sites.

European and American co-users of the aitea call them "African experts".

hedonistic:
Well. What I see here is more of an attempt to market the so-called, hitherto little-known pass.ng, than an attempt to genuinely mourm the young man's demise.

It appears that the character behind the so-called Jarushub is also a strategic stakeholder in pass.ng, so anything to drive traffic.

We have keen eyes and we read between the tenuous lines.. And see beneath the veil.

Be that as it may, May the young man rest in peace.

Are you for real?

Pass.ng is little known?

Nigeria's number 1 education startup known to millions of WAEC and UME students is little known?

A company Airtel designed special sim for is little known? http://googleweblight.com/i?u=http://www.africa.airtel.com/wps/wcm/connect/africarevamp/Nigeria/Home/personal/Internet/Services/pass&grqid=X68zun4_&hl=en-NG

Your thinking is pathetic but I'm not surprised. I am one of the "characters behind the so-called jarushub" and we dont have any stake in pass.ng. We are only sad that a founder of a fellow startup helping students pass exams died so young. We don't have any interest in pass.ng and it will be wicked for anyone to use death of a company CEO as traffic promotion for that company if you listen to yourself.

MasterChen:
RiP. May God grant the family the fortitude to bear the loss

PassNG has been one of the most promising Nigerian startups in recent years . I sincerely hope his demise won't hurt the progress of the startup

Exactly. A very promising startup. Great concept.

Simeon244:
I silently hoped for turbulence... so I can say I know how it feels...sadly none came

Once experienced a violent turbulence that lasted for as long as 2 hours.

denony:
I've always prefer to fly than using the Nigeria road

Same here.

Do you need expert for this?

Gerrard59:
OAU not the bolded.

@Post, What the post is implying is that students should not dread about not being able to start a career because you studied any of the afore-mentioned courses. That with a good grade, you can start a career in the same fields as the 'prestigious' courses' grads find themselves.

Nailed as usual.

plessis:
You call physics chemistry and mathematics underrated?....


Typical African man.....

How many top secondary school students choose these courses?


Most students end up studying them because they weren't able to get admission for engineering.

That's the underrating.

Wow, I worked with his Dad. One of the finest engineers in the oil and gas industry before his retirement recently. Was in Shell for more than 30 years.

ANBAKO:
What!!!
So a natural food is now a cause of cancer? These people are just promoting and pushing us towards imperialism. So what should we eat? Indomie with MSG? Saccharine? Drinking Coca-Cola and beer instead of palm wine.
To me the simple rule is "too much of everything/anything is bad"

Did you see roasted there?

It is way of preparing that is the problem. No one has told you boiled plantain should not be eaten.

By the way, the professionals who diagnose people of cancer everyday are advising, you are saying they are saying rubbish.

Colon cancer killed a colleague.

Ahmadu Bello went round northern secondary schools in the the northern region advising them to join the military.

The result is what we saw.

oyb:
So if u wanted to kidnap her...

hmmmm

Saw her today around VI/Lekki

Identified her car by the customised number earlier posted on social media.


TM 11 MAK

Those who come to smoke weed.

Not polite to take anyone's picture without consent though.

dalag11:
kool thread boss Jarus

sunnyb0b0:
Oga Jarus, how do we redeem Nigeria from the bondage you and your colleagues put Nigeria into in 2015?

I don't manage that handle though. It's my career outfit's official handle.

This is my only personal handle.

merit455:
I told you guys that this picture might be fake

So you believe FFK?
