FIRS promotion is a bit slow

I know nothing about their promotion (but all these things can change with a good MD)

Its better to level 8 officer for a for top agency than to be a level 14 officer for ministry.

At the end na money be koko ( my opinion though but I understand its important to grow)

elaino:

Thanks for the accurate analysis.

God abeg, remember me.

I forgot the most important.

FIRS generates massive revenue
Apart from maybe customs and nnpc I don't think any agency generates more than them (I stand to be corrected).
Go for FIRS.
Bad he bad ..una go always get money.

OGpeppermint:


So Hadiza Bala was there in 2023 abi, some one that left as MD May 2021, it's okay your highness.

Don't argue what you don't know.

elaino:

Shippers council vs FIRS? Which has better package?

A though one,
But I'll choose shippers Council for future prospects.
FG recently approved a minimum wage of 250k for maritime workers. Hopefully it translates to the MDAs within the ministry. Even if it doesn't it won't be that far below that for the MDas.
On the other hand FIRS just got 60% salary increase.

Depending on what you want, the ball is in your court.

OGpeppermint:


This is NPA, your are actually right, it was someone in your village that just sat down and forecast this, we can all rest now.

This post is 101% inaccurate.
This was just a proposal for increment during hadiza Bala time as MD. And barely 30% of it was approved.
There so many wrong templates flying in this group that are inaccurate.

Gabicon20:

1. You quoted someone and said nobody should quote u
2. You compared NLNG to fire service which is totally out of the topic of discussion
3. When u talk about an organization having different departments u didn't reference "CORE MANDATE" as it affects career progression.
You shouldn't even have quoted me in the 1st place without knowing the actual topic of discussion sir.

lmao, there are always he goats that will do otherwise.
I don drop my 2 cents, do whatever you want with my information.
End

Mohisah:
All u guys focus on is salary. Overtime development n opportunities as an Immigration officer is highly above Ffs. NIS hv opportunities to work in Embassies (even outside 9ja). NIS uses fire arm, does FFS have? Ffs is a cool job for who doesn't like stress or business person etc

Tho i may be wrong wit my opinion

one thing ive noticed about life is money dey everywhere, just make sure say you dey where he dey happen.
there are navy officers making 100 times wetin oil company big boys are making (though not legal)
I don see oga for NSCDC wey get money pass him mate for CBN
infact I don see where junior staff get bastard money pass senior staff (i no go call the organisation).
some people for NNPC no get money, dem just dey manage life, while police officer dey buy house home and abroad.

it all boils down to factors like posting, location, department, oga wey sabi and he is good to you (everybody chop)

Pray make God say na your time, make you sabi small office politics, and no dey gather enemies unnecessarily. your luck might just shine

P.s ive seen people have bastard money and still loose it, just hold your God tight.

civil servants and bankers na the biggest criminals, without dem politicians cannot steal money.

Gabicon20:

Most people here have not heard about "safety engineering" and how lucrative it is here and especially abroad. Only a myopic engineering or science graduate will pick immigration over fire service because he or she heard there is bribe in immigration service. Fact is fire service has the best career prospect of all the agencies under interior for those with science background.

safety engineering is just a department or division in fire service.
you think there are not other engineering roles in every agency ?
we have
-system engineers
-environmental engineers
-civil engineers
-every agency always has occupational health and safety and emergency response team.
I'm even very sure immigration will have IT specialists.
I will rather be admin staff in NLNG with my engineering degree than one yeye safety engineer for fire service and when I reach abroad I go do safety course get job.

My point is follow where money dey as he dey hot.
every agency has engineers, accountants, auditors, supply chain, safety etc. but na salary and allowance be koko.

abeg make nobody quote me

Who has any idea about DIA salary structure

Nadingo:
Why are we northerners so selfish like this? Maiyasa bama adalci ma abokan zaman mu ne? This is a public forum for crying out loud, and it has been emphasized and reemphasized time and time again that the medium of communication here is English. How would we feel if Yorubas, Igbos, and other tribes decide to communicate or pass information in their own languages that we cannot understand? Don't we think what we are doing can cause mistrust and defeat the purpose of this thread? Now, what you wrote is just a harmless expression of frustration about not being able to secure a job. However, someone who doesn't understand Hausa, because they have no idea of what you are saying, may think you are conveying important information and trying to hide it from non-Hausa-speaking folks. Let's make an effort to carry everyone along. This issue of writing in Hausa has caused many problems on this thread, so we should try to avoid it.

PS: I'm a full-blooded Northerner from Bauchi State.

I'm beginning to agree them curse us black people especially Nigerians

Thank you for standing up for the entire group.

Oxygen03:


Don't argue with anyone.
I can see someone saying DS salary is 300k😂😂😂🤣.
They said EFCC has no allowance when their security and housing allowance per annum is enough to build house😂.

Na baby will compare EFCC to NCC.
How I wish I can say what I know here but what is the point arguing with anyone?

https://gazettengr.com/efcc-operatives-collect-big-salaries-while-we-remain-poor-police-officers-say-ahead-of-nationwide-strike/

Telecom companies will never bribe a level 8 officer of NCC. Even the NCC chairman is under Minister of Communication and can't receive any package without the knowledge of Minister. Big companies don't bribe juniors staff and they don't even have reason to bribe anyone. Their taxes go directly to TSA.

NNPC, FIRS, NPA, NIMASA and Customs that generate highest level of revenue can't even seen 50% bribe EFCC officials are exposed too.

EFCC only report, accountable and answerable to the President. Other agencies are still under Their Ministers.

If they know loaded yahoo boys, let them ask them how much they are paying EFCC staff just to obtain information when arrest will be carried out in order not to be in town.

If EFCC bursted any criminal or politician house and they carried hard currency, who will ask them if they decided not to report it and they share the money? Who exactly😃?

Where are all the properties and money they have recovered so far😂😂😂?

I wont say much because I may be tracked.

Mtcheeew,
Wasted a whole paragraph typing vague statements and what ifs.

Ncc is better than efcc

Deltavariant:
I wish I can be more specific but its technically related to the extractive industry powering industrial growth

Congrats.

You don work for access bank before Abi

The worse case is when u re just an ND/HND holder😅
I do tell one of my guy dat he shld go n further for Direct Entry with his ND result instead of HND he no gree, now dat he chooses to work at a bank branch in Wuse, He cm dey call me say i gv am advice abt d importance of Bsc he no gree, now, boys wer dem just employ fr abt 2 months don turn deir oga(Supervisor) nd deir salary is abt 350-550k.
Bank job is nothin to write home of unless ur family is buoyant and u may be using dat to boost CV, like d way one top CBN Governor pikin dey one bank since he dey small dey chill with hot chocolate drink each day doim nothin, later u go hear say he's hbin 15yrs in bankin industries.
Govt job, u may even decide to skip work if u feelin unwell, but for Bank, una die there😅😅

You sabi the scope

smesi:



Bank job speaking from experience. I had work in the bank with four to five year experience made good money but fail to invest wise but when I was laid off I tried to maintain myself but biglife style of banking sector plays out.

Now am a government staff collect 70k+ am telling categorical that except you collect bribe that when you can survive and if no opportunity for bribe na loan go finish you because government job is waste of time job full of hate minded civil servant unlike their counterparts in corporate private organisations doing good and well respected.

You are wicked
How can you advise somebody to work in a bank ?
Worse as a contract staff sef
Contract staff dont get promoted except in rare cases when the bank is short staff and they want to convert but even the conversion your age will considered if you're above 30 nothing for you.

- in the next 15 years na 160k na him go be him salary with working extra hours

- as a teller some days your Till no go balance na you go pay and balance before you go home, nothing like end of month they will deduct from your salary. You go balance am on the spot

-your mental health will be affected, every four to six months you will be seeing small small children wey dem go employ to be your Oga, some of them go talk to you anyhow because you be bloody teller.

- tellers are front line staff that means their appearance matters alot, once you don dey reach 40 just know say you sack letter don dey come. They will employ a younger person for your job.

-I dare anybody to count 3 persons they know personally that retired peacefully (not resign o) and is collecting pension from a private bank

- you must be at office before 7:00 am so that you attend morning meetings, the meeting starts by 7 for most banks and branches.

- everyday your heart will be cutting because you dont know what you go and face in the office.

- just forget about half of your weekends, you be suport for ATM, there would be branch reviews and some meetings weekends.


-govt job gives more than enough time, you go dey wonder wetin you wan use your time do. That when you're supposed to start a side hussle and plan your life and further your education.
Nobody go give you chance to further any education for bank.

The thing I hate about Govt jobs is that you'll meet some of the most unqualified people ever, you'll be wondering how this person take get this job sef and also the Environment is toxic with unnecessary politics, tribalism and religion involved.
But I will still choose that and mind my bussiness than to be a teller in a bank


I rest my case

If China did not mass produced every day consumables and telephones such as techno, I won't be surprised if there will be some shop where people go to call their loved ones on video call, because iphones and Samsung are so expensive.

Just like cyber cafe, when we pay to browse to check our emails, or even make phone calls back then. Cheap phones made sure those things never happened. The success of China is a success for the world.

"Common prosperity" is their foreign policy slogan. E go reach everybody.

I use to laugh when people no rate android.
Thank God for other Chinese companies that scattered monopoly Samsung wanted to build.
Wetin Samsung for carry una eyes see ehn, Samsung's were crazy expensive.
Boom out of nowhere companies like techno developed quality phones for as low as 12k the same thing a 70k Samsung would do.

Imagine those companies never produced those phones, Samsung for show una shege.

You think say you smart abi?

To pursue you comot from his life no go hard be that. Since you think being leechy is being smart. Keep it up.

If you refuse to contribute materially in your relationship, you just weaken your position in that union. You're replacable easily.

The friends or partners that are easily dumped are the one that always collect. They hardly give. They think being at the receiving end makes them smart, but it makes them weak.

It makes them useless, disrespected, dishonourable, unvirtous, and quite frankly, to be beaten once in a while.

As this life hard reach, you no want to upgrade and build with your man. See him as a human in this sad world and both of you work together.

Because if a man have a choice to pick a woman that will be useful/industrious and the one with your mentality, the useful woman will always win.

If you like, hide under tradition that a man is a provider, the head, bla bla bla, it doesn't erode your role of being a supporter, and that's includes material support.

So many girls wey dey find husband get this dirty behaviour. But introspection is not the feature of the weak. They will never change, but wants a good man.

So it's easier to say that there are no good men, meanwhile, good men full everywhere, but they have observed from far and see say the woman no worth am. Her juice aint worth the squeeze

I was able to leave a situationship because of this.
It took me a while, but I eventually figure say she no rate me.
She always thought I would stick around forever.
When time reach to disappear from her life it was easy because she never contributed or done anything for me, he shock her.

Wow, I didn't know there was a verse in Ecclesiastes that explained it so clearly.

Also, a lot of modern philosophical works can be traced to the bible. There was a time (a few years ago) when I was linking modern philosophical and scientific works to passages in the bible, and I linked at least a hundred.

And I lost the file.

I will try to do it again and post it here. The Bible is deeply philosophical and scientific, and if one removes their bias (e.g. being non-religious), they could see lots of material wisdom in its teachings. Lemme list some that I can remember.

1. What redpillers called the 80/20 rule is known scientifically as the Pareto principle, and biblically as the Mattew principle (Matthew 25;29).

2. The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung always talks about the shadow, and that every person should recognize, accept, and integrate their dark sides to become whole. So biblically as you wrote, it would be Ecclesiastes 7:16-17.

I will be updating this page as I remember them, or probably just create a new topic.

I no dey read bible like that but I don read the book of ecclesiastes more than 5 times

My brother pls start with ashawo first 1k per round. That is where we great men all started from. They will teach you the basics. What do I mean. After smiling with you outside she will start shouting at u inside to do fast. Some will call u dog. It's all good , we all pass thru it. After u are done for like 3years then u can start dating secondary sch girls . This one's will teach you patience cos of too much drama. After this university girls , this one's will teach u how to spot a liar. This will happen after you have been.lied to several times. Then single mothers, this one comes with entitlement mentality. After all this process you will be qualified for married/dating Nigeria girls.
After marriage please proceed to older women. This should happen after many years of marriage. They are the PENCOM of dating. A very sure and reliable retirement plan for every dude.

I wish u all the best

Funniest thing I've read this year
