Music/Radio / Re: Which Musical Instrument Do You Love The Most by jkingx(m): 2:30pm On Jul 15, 2023 |
I play the piano/keyboard and the guitar (acoustic and electric/lead) but I'm more proficient on the piano yet it sometimes seems I love the acoustic guitar more; there is just something magical about playing the acoustic guitar finger l. See, these two instruments can accompany themselves or/accompany a singer at the same time wether played by the singer or someone else. That's the most beautiful thing about them. I don't know of any other instruments that can accompany themselves except perhaps a harp. Many believe the piano is the hardest instrument to learn but the bonus side is that it's also the easiest to learn music theory on which make learning other instruments thereafter easier. |

Career / Re: Can I Be A Businessman As A Federal Government Worker by jkingx(m): 4:09pm On Feb 25, 2022 |
With the current state of the economy in Nigeria, many persons (including civil/public servants) currently see the need to create an additional means of income for themselves, and in some cases, there is an urgent need to set up structures for such businesses while maintaining their employment as either employees of private organisations or civil servants. Our concern today however is as regards civil servants. Can they take up positions as directors of a private company in the course of employment? Please note, a civil servant and a Public Servant are the same. Part 2 of the Fifth Schedule of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria defines a public servant to include; Chairman, members and Staffs of Local Government Councils, Chairman and members of Boards of other governing bodies and staff of statutory corporations and of companies in which the Federal or State Government has controlling interest, etc. As regards the issue at hand, Sections 1, 2 and 4, Part 1 of the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, provides a clear answer to the question in issue. Specifically, Section 2 states; “Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing paragraph, a public officer shall not- (a) receive or be paid the emoluments of any public office at the same time as he receives or is paid the emoluments of any other public office; or (b) EXCEPT WHERE HE IS NOT EMPLOYED ON FULL TIME BASIS, ENGAGE OR PARTICIPATE IN THE MANAGEMENT OR RUNNING OF ANY PRIVATE BUSINESS, PROFESSION OR TRADE but nothing in this sub- paragraph shall prevent a public officer from engaging in farming” (emphasis mine) From the above, it goes without saying that only civil/public servants who are employed on a part-time basis may lawfully engage or participate in the management or running of a private business which may require assuming a role as director of a private company. This makes a lot of sense as without doubt, taking on responsibility as director of any company requires a great measure of commitment and focus. CAN A CIVIL SERVANT BE APPOINTED AS DIRECTOR OF A PRIVATE COMPANY UPON RETIREMENT? Section 4, Part 1 of the Fifth Schedule addresses this concern. It states; “A public officer shall not, after his retirement from public service and while receiving pension from public funds, accept more than one remunerative position as chairman, director or employee of- (a) a company owned or controlled by the government; or (b) any public authority.” From the above provision, it goes without saying that a retired civil/public servant can only accept more than one remunerative positions as director of a private company. SUMMARY Only civil servant employed on a part time basis are permitted by law to engage in or participate in the running of a private business as directors of a private company. However, civil servants employed on a full time basis can take on the role as director of a private company (s) only upon retirement. The can only engage in farming as a private business venture while fully employed in the civil service. CONCLUSION The civil service is regulated by a code of conduct, as such civil servants must take serious note of the scope of their limitations as regards undertaking private business activities while in employment https://lexpraxisng.com/can-a-civil-servant-be-a-director-of-a-company-in-nigeria/ |
Religion / The One Thing That Discourage You The Most From Attending Church. by jkingx(m): 1:16pm On Jan 30, 2022 |
I believe in God and I love God. I was brought up in church and have served in church at different times and in different capacities but Ironically, while I consider myself a spiritually aware person, I have never been much of a religious guy. In other words, I am more of a realist and a pragmatist. As a family man, I tried as much as possible to take my family to church. I desire to give my kids the moral and spiritual foundation Christianity can provide without the brainwashing; believing stuff so much they don't have the ability to think. So I made it to church today for a service that was to be two hours. It stretched to three hours thereby eating into time that's for other things. Now I'm underpressurenot to be late for another commitment. I hate being late for anything. I left the church quiet upset. This time issue is the most discouraging factor for when it comes to attending church. What is yours? |

You deh understand Indian guys intonation? One Indian guy make almost totally wipe out my MacBook pro drive! I am an electrical and electronics engineer (telecom, power, broadcasting construction) and IT pro (a little of everything but more of infratructure and systems integration) with nearly 20 years post graduate experience. Never have the patience for coding. Ok. To your question, I have not taken any courses from codeacademy though the name may suggest they may be more focused on coding stuff but I've taken a few courses with coursera and I can recommend them. 1 Like |

Nairaland / General / Veteran Journalist Arrested And Illegally Detained For Exposing Buhari Minister by jkingx(m): 5:11pm On Nov 02, 2020 |
FREE TOM OGA NOW! It's been 3 tortuous weeks since Buhari's Minister, Jeddy Agba ordered the arrest and continuous detention of Benue born 72-year old Nigerian Journalist, Pa. Oga Tom Uhia. Jeddy Agba, the Nigeria's Minister of State for Power, who hails from Cross River, through his uncle who is the DIG in charge of Force CID, is currently keeping Pa. Oga, over an alleged injurious publication against him in the July edition of Power Steering Magazine. All entreaties from the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Civil Society Groups, APC Chieftains and the general public, especially the family and associates of Pa. Oga, that he should be released due to his health status, fell on the deaf ear of the power drunk Minister under Buhari's integrity government. The Police claim they got a detention order, which according to investigation, was fraudulent procured from a not-named Magistrate in Mararaba, Nasarawa State, without considering the jurisdiction of the court or application of Criminal Justice of Nasarawa State. As a way of pushing for the enforcement of his fundamental rights, the Idoma lawyers have decided to take up the case with leadership from Senior Advocates of Nigeria from Idoma land and Pa. Oga's Attorney, Alex Oketa (Esq.). This move became necessary, as the health of Pa. Oga is deteriorating and Buhari's Minister has refused to either let the man go and reunite with his grandchildren, nor charge the matter to court. Watch this space for details of how a detention order was illegally procured, plus other issues. Meanwhile, any good spirited Nigerian, young or old, who still believes in the rule of law and wants freedom for Pa. Oga, should share this post, trend the #FreeOgaNow harshtag and also use this picture on his/her dp or profile on social media.

I think she is coming for your girlfriend. I think that either you were sleeping with her and your girlfriend knew or for whatever reason, believed so, felt threatened and poisoned her. I guess it was easy because they were close. The ghost is haunting your house because of your girlfriend. 1 Like |
