kelechi50: The blame goes to parents, government and negligence of duty by our immigration officers.
Nope, the blame goes to the victims! Greed blocked their senses. They must have heard about others who were victims...so they should blame themselves for the situation. Women are usually also the traffickers...it tells a lot about how women think...
Macphenson: Why always Igbos? Even the quality of education is south east is on another level. I told somebody that it would be difficult for people who attended school in other regions to compete with south east People.
Boss, I'm pretty sure you're feeling kinky about the stats shown. I lived in SE for long enough to know the results don't tell what's on ground!! I don't know if attending school means educated...if na so, then stats may be right
2012 I was working in this town, on a particular day one of these python spent the whole day playing on the cement packed in the shed....time to time I went to have "chats" with it...following day it was nowhere to be found....
Dalohad: The only acceptable quality and standard is to employ those trained and certified to perform their medical duties and not to cut corners and bend the rules when it is convenient for you..
Dalohad: LOL.. Funny people. Physicians don't want people watering down their course of study via shorter pathways to certification. But they are the greatest advocate for watering down the training and practice of other medical courses such as Pharmacy, MedLab, Nursing etc.
They train and employ quacks like Auxiliary nurses, pharm Assts and unlicensed SLTs to run their clinics and labs..and still blame the real professionals for quackery... Laughable...
Bro, this happens everywhere, banks will rather hire a degree holder in anthropology than someone who studied banking or related...just to crash train them and employ within a week!! Engineering firms employ those who read the measurements in imperial mode, all in the bid to cut costs!!! But we're talking about things on standard and acceptable qualities The world is just a crazy place!!
DataDoc: What do you mean by "who have the practical experience"?
If a cleaner hangs around the theatre for years, we should "certify" him because he has experience?
At a general hospital somewhere in northern Nigeria is met a guy, said he worked at the pharmacy...yea...he did work there but guess what, he arrives very early, cleans and sweeps the department then before 8am he showers and puts on white lab coat and appears at the pharmacy counter dispensing prescribed medicine...just because there's shortage of staff he's a pharmacist not so? He worked there for years...literally anyone who didn't know him thought him to be a pharmacist...this is someone who could not string a sentence in English...
Amotolongbo: I suggest there should be a shorter and modular academic pathway created for people like this who have the practical experience so they can become certified. With this, the number of quacks can be reduced and integrated into the system where there is regulation of activities.
Please do not say this. There should NEVER be a shorter means to learn a profession...those who took time to set the time frame are not daft... If someone tells you he "studied" medicine in 3 years tell me you will lay down on his surgical table...just tell me please.
No way it can find itself here because most people are consciously or u consciously dependent on someone from the early days of their lives!! Maybe when in our early teens we begin to understand value and team, then gradually the mindset will change.....next two millennium ahead ...
It's ok Eriksen, ww love you, you have given your best to the game! Now you MUST go on retirement, we don't want to cry for you another time soon. Patrice Muamba is enjoying his life currently, remember that.... Best wishes as you sign off! Cheers....
EmmyMaestro: “I was disqualified because I didn’t have bum-bum” – Abuja job seeker laments interview experience
A Nigerian lady has shared her frustration online after allegedly being disqualified during a job interview in Abuja, claiming the selection process focused more on physical appearance than qualifications.
According to her, she applied for a hostess position and arrived at the venue only to discover that many other applicants had also been invited for the interview.
In her words, she said:
“I’ve never been this embarrassed all my life. Like, I’ve never felt this way all my life. So I went for one job interview today here in Abuja, and I applied as a hostess.”
She claimed that officials began screening candidates based on physical features such as height, body size, complexion, and overall appearance, with several applicants reportedly asked to leave before the interview process began.
The lady further alleged that the remaining candidates were asked to line up and turn around while their bodies were assessed.
According to her, she was eventually disqualified without anyone reviewing her CV or asking about her experience.
“They were asking us to do 360. They were checking our backside. If you don’t have bum-bum, leave. They didn’t even go through my CV. They didn’t even ask me anything. From there, I carried my bag and started coming back home. This was how I was disqualified because I don’t have bum-bum,” she added.
Her account has since sparked reactions online, with many social media users debating appearance-based hiring practices and the pressure some women face regarding body image.
She said the experience left her feeling humiliated and questioning why physical appearance appeared to matter more than qualifications.
Not that you didn't have bum bum, after all, what's that behind you? Let's just say what you have didn't meet up to what they wanted. You can't score below cut off mark and be admitted!! Can you?
segyoms: This is funny but I'll share this not me oo,my cousin plugged iron when he was about ironing his clothes so instead of ihim to test the hotness on the covered wrapper curiosity pushed him and he placed the hot iron to his stomach....that day was mad ..
He must have danced hot makossa that day!! Oooh! The pain!!
Electricity!! Hmmm...was about 9 or 10 years old, just began to flick Electricity socket switch on and off, on and off...somehow I poked my finger into the socket and the DRRRZZZZZZZZ, I felt was from the top of my head to my soles!! When my eyes focused I found myself standing knock kneed!! I now laugh about it...
While in junior High, one evening I sat on a disused concrete mound that looked exactly like a tomb. It was behind our dormitory about 75feet . Just sat still for a while and soon enough curiosity took over someone and he called out...I sat very still...soon a crowd gathered and no one was brave enough to come close. Swinging side to side slowly made the crowd even more agitated Suddenly someone threw a stone, missing me by few inches, then out of fear I stood up slowly and the now large crowd ran amok! Their curiosity had been satisfied! They had seen a GHOST!! Everyone scattered in different directions! Me, I crashed into the bush and made a roundabout run to the hostel and asked the spectators what was happening!! Everyone was convinced they had seen a ghost!! Hehehehe...me, I told them I didn't believe in ghosts!! I've told this story to only VERY few people from that school...I won't mention it, but its in Northern Nigeria...
Samantha125: I feel the same way about male content creators, the day my husband starts joining content creation will be the day our marriage starts being on the brink of collapse.
One thing about being with a content creator is that people will start feeling entitled to be invading your privacy and I don't joke with mine.
If only wives and girlfriends will think like this. What you don't like from your partner, learn to avoid doing it...never justify your acts and feel the acts by your partner isn't justifiable!!
KnowledgePower7: Imagine she post one throwback photo with caption. " When I took this picture . 5 guys were disturbing me for hand in marriage"
Or the one she posted supporting frank Edoho ex wife.
Even her own mother came to visit kids and she was complaining of how revealing her outfits she wears to go outside. She dey dress like hookup girl with cleavage popping out. Instead of her to change She go online and brought the matter to her fans. I was like WTF??
If her and Oga quarrel, she will come online and start making post that she quarreled with Oga and Oga no gree eat before when comot. Omo if this is Marriage Omo I no do again
One thing is certain, this character will backfire someday soon...it doesn't last too long...by the time she understands her husband's silence over the matter, it will be late...then social media fans will be like burning coal to her!! We just dey watch!
Simple but effective, alright, but how about protection from organisms that may take advantage of your privates occasionally dipping into the water and silently creeping in and lodging there?? Have you really thought about that? The kinda water you're threading in looks like its an habitat for such. Please be careful.
Common occurrence in Eastern Nigeria where palaces of chiefs are used to scam people. Suddenly you hear a market is to be built and the chief is looking for a contractor. Someone who knows you tells you about the "job" and offer to introduce you. You come, they tell you tradition demands certain provisions and money for the elders, the youth groups and so on, before you're given the job which drawings are already prepared. You provide all that, next you're told the government officials will soon take you to site, they arrive, they tell you to also give them something so they can accelerate matters as its very urgent. You provide, next you're shown the "site" and told your documents are now going to be signed soon, be patient. Next chief is all over you persuading you by subtly coaxing you to send one money or the other as one officer or the other is blocking the speedy signing of your documents....you'll be lucky to code at this point...if you're the greedy one, maybe months later after many more payments then you will realise its always a scam... The "Royals" are the ones usually at the head of this syndicate...because of their positions you'll never suspect...
brain54: Colonial mentality and low self esteem...
He doesn't even believe the country has what it takes to manage it's own power. He rather wants to push a sensitive and important infrastructure as power in the hands of foreigners.
And these are the people we have in government o.
Oga senator Goje electricity is not rocket science. What it takes is planning and willpower.
So many things are fundamentally wrong with these people chosen to participate and represent in government. No nation can ever grow when it has leaders with such mindset!
Like you said, it takes planning and will power...then there's DISCIPLINE... these are the ingredients, yet we're grossly lacking them.
SixSeven: Pray before you eat. Be thankful after you eat.
Home food is better than outside food.
Do not eat food from strangers.
Food ate together is sweeter.
Don't leave your food open.
Never leave your food unattended.
Don't cough, sneeze or talk over food while cooking or eating.
Don't talk while eating.
Have water beside you for safety.
Always wash your hand before eating.
Wash the plates and clean the sink before the next person.
Always wash the plates before serving. Rats, cockroaches or anything could have touched it.
Don't use the same plate/utensils for the house for guests.
Eat meat/chicken/turkey/fish last.
Never serve food behind guests. Always do it in front of them or let them serve themselves.
Do not hold the cup for drinking from the top where the mouth will touch.
Eat the same food with your guests.
Only serve what you can finish. Never waste food. No matter how oyinbo wan teach us say na dining etiquette to leave some food behind after a meal, my can cannot. I would rather take what I can finish than leave some behind as signature leftover. I love my Africans for this.
As a man, don't serve the food without the woman's permission. That kitchen is her territory, don't just go dip your hand in the pot and serve yourself like that. Women are sensitive to those things.
When I saw how they wash plates at Buka, I almost vomited because they manage water and soap to your own detriment
Short story, one day one man came to our house and was served with glass cup of water. We washed that cup more than 4x. It was that day I knew that if you wash glass cup clean, water will drain smooth. If it is not clean, you will see pothole on the cup
Security has updated to use of sophisticated system and gadgets but not in Nigeria. How can a Security organisation be overwhelmed by a group that's largely uneducated? I just fold my arms in despair...such an area should have monitors as perimeter to be able to see or detect movement from at least 1km. This would have prepared the unit to repel the insurgents... Alas, this is not the case, they were ambushed ...
