there is another one on the mainland called Ranstard resources at 16 Ondo Street Ebute metta. with rented office space, fake website and badly, poorly dressed staff wit big titles. was there 2wks ago for another interview. After 2day of rubbish training, they now told us that we have to pay 13,800 for them to reveal the secret of making money. they mistakenly revealed the company as Neolife which is the parent company for GNLD. I know because I HV friends working there. when I said GNLD d stupid facilitator said no. that was where I caught them to their game. please job seekers be careful n we need to expose these scams. I was also invited to one this week at 161Herbert Macaulay Yaba by BGL ltd and its same setting n i warned them there and there not to send any sms to me again. God will surely punish these idiots.

Lol, i've also encountered those scarming marching on two occasions.
The 1st was three yrs ago when i was badly in need of a job so i got their contact through a then girlfriend of mine, unknown to the both of us that it was a scam i sent my cv and they replied imediately, i was so happy/suprised that a company in nigeria could respond that quick to an application(they must be so despirate, i thought to my self). On the interview day it was a mix of anger and laughter for me, the front gate looked like that of an hunted house which made me doubted if i was at the right venue but i entered anyway just to clear my doubts. and voila, i was at the right place after all as a horrible looking banner which had nothing else but Neolife on it hung beside the entrance door. I had already started getting the feeling that it was a scarm but i still encouraged my self to see it through, so i entered the building and a lady i saw directed me to the room where the presumed interview was bieng held, on entering the room i saw a whole lot of people, and then it didn't look like an interview again, it looked like a whealth creation seminner as the officials/stooges of the comparny looking like a badly dressed groom in their cheap suit came out in their numbers to narrate a well memorised story of how neolife transformed their lives, they wont entertain any question as regards their story nor the company and i was cool with it untill they started asking for money (GNLD lawon oloriburuku yi sha).
They asked interested applicants to pay 20k for a lisence that will enable us sell their products anywhere around the world, around this time the number of people in d room had seriously reduced, so they beat down the price again and again till they got to 1k but i still wasn't interested in paying for an employment. So the already frustrated motivational speaker wanna be seeing that we whern't up to 10 left in room again now said 'ok just work with us and u can pay when you start earning', to that, i finally stood up and said 'not interested'.

oruko loro o(koyobala) sho ti wayo nisiyin.

not untill i got to the 3rd pix did i realíse that it was painting, mr oresegun is a simple genius, i pray God pitch him with people that will lift his work accross d globe.

This thread leaves me with more questions than answers.

So many holes in this story.

The whole article itself leaves a bad taste in my mouth, like it was written by a toddler.

[quote author=FKO81 post=43465275]The OPC was involve in the ethnic clash that occurred in Sagamu on 17 July, 1999. As a major Kolanut trade center in Yorubaland Sagamu attracted a sizeable number of Hausa settlers. The fighting which broke out there was precipitated by the death of a Hausa woman who was said to have flouted the order restricting women from coming out of their homes during specific hours of the night during the annual Oro festival. The confrontation resulted in the death of about 50 people, while a reprisal attack in Kano on 22 July 1999 claimed over 100 lives. The governors of Ogun and Kano states held several meetings to reconcile the Hausa and Yoruba communities in their states before peace was restored (The News, 31 January 2000). The event that actually brought the OPC under public scrutiny was the clash of rival factions of dockworkers at the Apapa Port on 9 September 1999. Evidence indicates that the OPC intervened in support of the Yoruba faction to prevent the “annexation” of the Lagos Port by the Ijaw faction that had recently won a trade union election in Port Harcourt. By the end of the fight, 16 people had lost their lives in a gruesome manner. The violence eventually spilled over into neighbouring Ajegunle, inhabited by both Ijaw and Yoruba people. A curfew was imposed on the settlement for about a month before a truce was established, after several meetings between the community leaders and the Governor of Lagos State (The Guardian, 15 September 1999 and The News, 31 January 2000). The situation was gradually returning to normalcy when the Ketu riot broke out on 26 November 1999. This was a battle for the control of the popular Mile 12 market which pitted Yoruba against Hausa. The OPC was drawn into the riot in which daggers and other lethal weapons were freely used. When an official statement put the death toll at 30, it is widely believed that the real figure was as high as 115 (Saturday Champion, 27 November 1999:5; Sunday Guardian, 16 January 2000: 15). Due to frustration or in desperation, the federal government ordered the police to shoot members of the OPC on sight. Some leaders of the north believed that the government response was not sufficient to guarantee the safety of lives and properties of northerners living in Yorubaland. Hence, the decision to form the Arewa people’s Congress (APC) as a center force to the OPC. The situation was worsened by the report that this rival congress would be launched in Ibadan, the heart of Yorubaland, on 27 December 1999. The rumors of this event prepared the ground for the swift reaction of the OPC to an accident involving a Hausa tanker-driver at the Ojoo junction on 5 January 2000. It was another catastrophe as 10 lives were lost and 30 houses burnt (The News, 31 January 2000). However, it was a coincidence that on the same day 6 people lost their lives and 12 house were burnt on Akala street, Mushin, in a cleansing operation against suspected armed robbers in Lagos by the OPC. While the police strongly condemned the OPC, the residents of Akala hailed the OPC members as liberators. The weight of public opinion compelled the Lagos State Governor to endorse the action of OPC during his fact finding mission to the area. The stand taken by the governor on the so-called “Akala purge” has sunce gained him a reputation as a patron of the OPC (The News, 31 January 2000, Daily Champion, 24 January 2000 and the Guardian, 16 January 2000). Another important event shaped the image of OPC publicly as an organization differently seen as either benevolent or dangerous, was the abduction and murder of Mr. Sunday Afolabi, the Divisional police Officer (DPO) for Bariga by suspected members of OPC on 9 January 2000. This incident prompted President Olusegun Obasanjo to impose a blanket ban on all ethnic militias in the country, and he also threatened to impose a State of emergency o Logos Sate if Government Bola Tinubu failed to flush out the OPC from the state. The (then) Inspector General of police, Musiliu Smith, placed a reward of N100,000 on the head of Gani Adams, the leader of the militant youth wing of the OPC. The Arewa people’s Congress (APC) raised the ransom to N300,000 (punch, 30 January 2000). The Northern Senators’ Forum (NSF) called for the removal of General David Jemibewon, the Yoruba minister in charge of Police Affairs, while expressing its support for the imposition of emergency rule in Lagos (Punch, 30 January 2000; Weekend Concord, 29 January 2000). This turn of events led the governors of the Yoruba states of Ogun, Oyo, Osun and Ondo to issue a statement in support of Governor Bola Tinubu on 17 January 2000. Prominent Yoruba traditional leaders-the Obas-as well as the Afenifere organization also warned that they would resist the imposition of emergency rule on any part of Yorubaland, in view of the experience of 1962 (Obafemi Awolowo, 1987). Akinyele (2001) believed that the incidence involving the OPC in Ilorin in October, 2000 signaled the beginning of violence resulting from divisions created by Ilorin politicians. The OPC, notorious for perpetrating violence since 1998, mobilized its members from parts of South West Nigeria and marched on Ilorin city with the purported aim of dethroning the Emir and installing a “Yoruba Oba” from Afonja descendants. This incident was apparently influenced by some members of Afonja’s descendants located in Ganmo in the outskirts of Ilorin where the invaders converged. The move was also influenced by the fact that the then Governor of Kwara State, Mohammed Lawal, is a direct descendant of Afonja in Ilorin. The police, however, foiled the attempt of the OPC members after killing 6 of them (Punch, 16 October 2000). Sambo (2005) noted that the incidence involving OPC in Ilorin in October 2000 was considered as a transgression by the people of Ilorin who do not entirely see themselves as Yoruba.y brother I wonder how these people will leave together without Igbos, no wonder the word Biafra scares the living shits out of them, they should know Lagos has been conquered, northerners has invested alots, same with Igbos and other ethnic groups. All they will be doing is to be fighting every other ethnic group it can't change nothing, Lagos is a conquered territory.

u wrote this long epistle just 2prove that we need ibo, how much dem don pay u now

with all the money wey he loot, see the usual mansion e go build, this so called nigerian big men are as non creative with our money as they are with their fraud.

AyoOne01:
Bomode o ba itan, yoo baroba, aroba sini baba Itan
I heard they don't have Oba in Ibadan, that they do refer to them as Baale and truly since I've known the late Olubadan I didn't see Crown of any type on his head . How true is this?

so through, ibadan might be popular and respected, but it is subject to the aafin oyo hence the reason y they cant have a king.

DonBobes:
Y don't u try dem first n see what happens to ur soul. Dey even have a job serving der father's land. Wat do u do for a living only criticism n no pay!

So we should applaud them for miscontruing their roles as territorial guards, try being on the receiving end of their terror and let's see if you'll still hold them in high regard; some1 should try and remind them that their job is to protect and not terrorise the people.

I guess she meant literally striped

Once had that idea, but money no de; I named mine Christ Cafe; it won't feature fast tempo gospel songs, so songs like "Morire gba",Igwe or kosobabire is not to be expected. It will only feature groovy,soul lifting songs embedded in music genre's like jazz,R&B, soft rock, soul and afro beat, it will also feature comedy, poetry and spoken words and all will be done live, no demo, no dj and it will and must be holy and acceptable in the sight of God. Christ Cafe, I pray my dream come to pass one day. O by the way no alcohol will be served, just tea, coffee, soft drinks, pastries etc.......

queenfav:
@op at least your's happened when you were 11.Mine happened from april-july 2014.I had a problem with my law school posting for court and chambers attachment.Instead of my house local govt area in ughelli south,I was posted to Effurun.My mum had to arrange for me to stay with a family friend who was living around refinery,very close to Effurun high court.Now this couple is well travelled,both are lawyers and have been friends with my family since I was a kid.They owned the duplex they lived in, with a maid and gateman.They are very well to do.The first 2 weeks were very ok.since they had a maid,I cudnt really sweep the house because she does that.So I made sure I washed dishes anytime I saw any in the sink.I normally leave the house by 8,return 4 or 5 depending on when my court closed.I wasn't even eating breakfast in the house o,just dinner.
Everything started when she started complaining that I don't work in the house."I thought to myself, like..seriously?I had bar finals I was reading for.Was she expecting me to do eye service?"I wash dishes I meet in the kitchen without being told.Even when the househelp insists I leave it ,I still do it.She even went as far as gossiping me to her friends o.On many occasions,she would wake me by 3am on sunday.She would then pile the clothes of she,her husband and her four 4 kids for me to iron.At times after ironing for like an hour she would bring another set,that she prefers that one to the ones I have ironed.
I was so depressed at a point I couldn't read.I had to caution myself to bear.The househelp at a point stopped greeting me,because she felt we were now mates.lol.Many nights in a week,the husband would buy suya or barbecue,she wouldn't even ask if I want to eat.I would come back from court and find the fridge locked.As if the drinks they noemally keep there was my problem.she would even go as far as counting the coke inside the crate kept in the kitchen store.it got to a stage she started telling the househelp to lock her store when ever I get home.All that was to safeguard her provisions.I called my mum to tell her,she cried eh!She asked me to come back home,that even though my house was like an hour plus to the court,she would ensure I leave the house on time.I packed my things then told her I was leaving.The husband was home that night,he was shocked I even considered going.The poor man no know say e wife na countess dracula.He begged me to forget about anything that happened and stay.That one even worsened things,I will greet her at times she won't answer.On saturdays,she would instruct the househelp to tell me to sweep both upstairs and downstairs of the duplex.I was always sad..The day I was leaving to go back to school for our bar finals,my friend came to pick me up with his car back to my house.Na so the lady call me o,that I should go and mop the guest room I lived in before leaving.A room I always kept clean,and moped the tiles every friday afternoon?I almost cried!I had to come down from the car,then gave the househelp 500 to do it.My friend was so pissed.He was asking how I managed to cope for 4 months.I just told him I knew it wasn't forever.Recently she called my mum saying I don't keep in touch,I just laughed!Thank God for the bad experience o,because it spurred me to read with zeal.At least I passed my exams with honours to her shame.That's why I have vowed never to squat with any friend or relative.If I even get a job in abuja where housing is expensive,I'd rather share a room with someone ,than stay rent free in a mansion and take sh.it.Many people just become demi-gods once you are eating their food an living under their roof.Forgetting that no condition is permanent!I would not advice my enemy to squat with anyone o.Because thats when you get to see the person's true nature.

Op you try gan o, if say na me the woman go hear am o; na she go beg me mek I komot o cos by the I finish with am, if she see me she go run, I be small pikin ni wey she go maltreat me

Harbosede02:
They marry ugly wives and keep beautiful concubines.......fools!!!!!!!

Why are we fools? Because we know where to place the both of them unlike the female folks; that's the hallmark of a good leader honey and that's called division of labour; besides I won't like to wear out my wife either. Nuff said

StephanieEzeh:
So they know what it means when they want a hot chic You must prove yourself worthy.

Really, and u guys think a right thinking guy would come for free loader's like you after working hard to acquire his wealth, might happen sha, but not some one like me, I go for BB(beauty&brain) which I doubt you posses any.

ibedun:
You are still too young to understand fully what is going on. Stick to your studies for now. Igbos hate Igboland and yet they have come to a peaceful, rich and endowed YORUBALAND to cause trouble. They have gone too far already and must be put in their place.

Bros, egbon, oga mi sir. I believe we shouldn't fight today seeing that our SE brother has extended an olive branch, after all we're the well behaved children (omoluabi) as our name implies so let's not trade a bowl of pounded yam with that of a gun powder.

sltn:
23 ke! homie wey don get 2 kido's down!

Two kids means nothing, I know a guy married with two kids and he's only 20, moreover northerners marry early. But I doubt he's 23

Formerly , there was nothing like south east/ south south. It was called eastern Nigeria/Biafra.
You don't know your history so its clear you have no direction where you are going.
I wish you a safe landing in your world of ignorance. Ksw wasn't lucky enough to right his wrongs, hope you will be.

Well now it's south south in case you're still living in the past, let the dead rest

smoothpapuzy:
It is a curse to be known for betraying your people. May God never bring that kind of shameless fame to even my worst enemy.

Is ogoni land part of south east?

Serves him right..May he continue to roast in hell. For the fact that he apologized to Ojukwu before he was maimed by his Fulani slave masters shows that he really regretted his actions and in-actions but it's too late then.

This is a lesson to other NigerDelta sellout today. Your own death by your Fulani slave masters will be more brutal and humiliating than Saro Wiwa.

Once again, may he

continue roasting in hell ..Ewu

You your self said he apologised to Ojukwu before he died so what else do you want; a youtube clip of him burning in hell, at least we know him; who know your papa. Eeeeeeeeeeediot

In English please

I SAY AGAIN!!

This is not the African Way.
The Pope is wrong. How can we respect him as a man of God if he travels amongst the common people? How can we glorify one who does not glorify himself? He is a messenger of God!! He should reflect God's power accordingly.We do not exalt those on our own level. A true pastor must SHOW he is above us in every way.

The Vatican has billions and BILLIONS in precious metals and stones but this pope does not display any of this for us to admire. If we cannot SEE and admire a man's power and wealth how can we follow him and give unto his glory?

This pope is a disgrace to Christianity. A man of God cannot be humble. He must be mighty as God is mighty.Fly your private jet, Papa Oyedepo! Wear your Rolex, Papa Adeboye. Wear your Armani suits Pastor Daniel! We cannot judge you as we judge ourselves. You are truly men of God. Our spiritual and earthly masters!

I want to believe this write up is a sarcasm so I won't take you up on it.

Status quo would remain for a long long time.

If you hate them so much why do want them to stay?

Biafra will not be recognized by Nigeria in my lifetime so forgerraboutit..

Well good luck 2u on that.

Mods..

Please give us something to work with na..

Haba!!! Is this Ndi Igbo crime week on Nairaland or what?

This partiality is not fair jor. The Afenifere and Odua crew are just enjoying themselves at our expense.

I am sure that one of them have r:aped their underaged Daughters or used their mothers for rituals as they normally do by now. All we are saying is that you bring it to the frontpage as well.

You're right, I think this people do all their possible best to get negative stories surrounding the south easterners, though I'm from the south west but I think all this tribalism should stop, untill the sovereign state of Biafra is recognized by the Nigerian govt; it is a Nigerian problem.

dualsurvey:
I got similar responses when I applied for jobs in New Zealand and UK, despite the fact that I stood a better chance of getting the job. I could remember an employer lamenting the fact that there's no way to go about Immigration hurdles for me. I was heavily depressed and regret being born in this hopeless land.

I understand your frustration, but I'll like you remember you're and will always be a Nigerian so its better we start looking at our country from a different perspective than the hopeless nation we presume it to be, I know it's difficult to do but what if we all make this top multinational companies respect us by creating our own jobs, protest the inhuman treatment of a fellow colleague even it means the end of our job, strive to be the best in what we're doing and demanding a pay equal to our intelligence from our employers.
The reason we're being treated that way everyday is because we are always too quick to run after this companies with our pants down in search of a job, such people will do as they please with us in such scenario; it's not a crime to call together people of like minds and form a freelance workforce that will offer their services to different companies, that way we'll be a lot more respected; and if the company wants your services then you can charge them what they pay the expatriates.
Nigeria is not hopeless, the people are just not thinking hard enough.
