It's ironic isn't it?

Children of nobody would work hard, graduate, apply for job, meet all the requirements, but their applications is mostly discarded in favor of giving slots to politicians.

More often than not, most of these slot candidates can't even lace d boots of true applicants with robust qualifications But Because they don't know 'somebody' they mostly ain't even considered. Tests, interviews etc. All 4 nothing. But worry not my youngings, they can only do such injustice to u in dis mortal world. They would all pay for denying u ur rights in d next world.

Just dey play.
don't be naive to think that those who got the job via connections aren't competent.

If you see some of their qualifications & experiences, you go fear.

Unfortunately they're graduating from some of the best schools in the world.
Heriot watt, imperial college London, Oxford and co
Some with even PHD's sef

Some with experience have worked with top Multinationals abroad before coming back

I perfectly understand your grievance that life isn't fair.
Like the saying goes - "the rich keep getting richer"
That's what is playing out here.

Omo life no just balance, because even me sef dey wey follow you talk knows how it feels.

Just keep to pushing bro.

I hear say NDIC share appoiment this month.
I here say salary no be here.
Almost a million per month for gl8.

Who can confirm this.

Mohisah:
I ws at one òrg one certain time.. The certs wer boys carry no be small. U will see smb wit abroad experience + Msc... 9ja boy just carry first degree, it can only be God to gift u the job, seeing such certificates & experience, u go already disqaualify ur self..

Guy man point NUPRC straight, i don't know how to advice him on such place not for poor man

😄 haha....I perfectly understand wetin you dey talk

You'll be shocked at some people's qualifications

Geekels:
@Mohisah
I am really interested in this NUPRC, I have the skills and O&G technical experience
How do I get in Please, I need NUPRC badly,

Lmao say na he have skills 🤣 😂

FG no send your expertise except few occasions.

Most Top professionals in FG ( the brainy ones) that are not interested in politics after a while they voluntarily resign and go where they are appreciated.

Pls this is not an attempt to discourage from pursuing your dreams.

Dream big !!! There's enough space for everybody.

Nelly9kelly:
Very insightful points shared here. However, I’d like to pose a general question ,in cases where an employee, whether in government service or a private firm, experiences a serious health condition, accident, or loss of a body part that leaves them unable to work for years, does the organization continue to pay salaries or provide any long-term support? I think it’s also important to factor in such unforeseen circumstances as we plan our careers, even though we don’t pray for them.

Incase of sickness for FG it depends on certain factors.

-Grade level of the affected person
-The Mda the person is working with (each mda different)
-how long is the illness (few months, running in years)


In this case you asked for years, if the illness or injury was caused during work. The mda will most likely cover majority of bills (surgery or even fly you abroad)
While your salary and allowances will be intact.
At most they will redeploy you to a department that doesn't need much work so that you still be an employee while taking care of yourself.
Highest when its time for staff audit, you go show face mark attendance and be going. If the person is a senior grade level he won't even need to come sef, his mates will cover up for him ....and life goes on.
Generally Fg workers are compassionate with each other in cases like this except the person affect is a bad person that people don't like.

Some mda even cover retired staff medical expenses with their spouse even for things like surgery.

But if the Mda too dey form serious and they like to do everything official...after a while they will let you go with a good severance package especially when they need to downsize. The sick fellows are the first to be affected when they want to downsize they ask for everybody's medical records


For private firms, it depends on the organisation too.
But most will let you go.
private people no dey like hear anything money. Except the person is a high ranking official in the company. But if its a bloody officer (lmao) they will let you go.

Like I said, it depends on the company.
Ive seen a low level staff at company that had a vehicle accident since for more than a year. And they kept him.
He comes to office and just chills , once its closing he goes home and he collects his salary.

Mohisah:
Hardly we see that in nearest future. Tinubu has k*lled the fake life of chop for free.. Tax on tax will keep it running.

Ajaokuta steel fit no function but sm stil dey on payroll.. Na who dey inside sabi d game.
Govt no fit release una without severances payment like how NNPC & CBN did.

Dangote sacked 800+ severances dem no see, na fake redeployment we dey hear...

May we not be caught in such phase.

I'm not here to argue severance package.

Simply put in my above writeup, the concept of job security with Govt is just a myth.

Mohisah:
I've 2 people in the IOC but, everyday, dem dey find way to be in Abuja. Nothin beat peace of mind & closing by 4pm. Weekend u drive out to enjoy sports etc.. IOC go gv u money, but na ur children go flex am😂💔

If you can be patient in IOC for 15yrs with planning, investment, assets and divestment of your resources.

You can resign and do the F**k you want with your life

IOC you just need 13-15 yrs of work to be OK in life.

dreamxhaser:
Normal, this, job security and a few other reasons are why i will choose a government job.

For me it’s about the peace of mind and being comfortable.

But if they want compere money make people no dey go that side

Pls I'll like to clarify on something.

there's nothing like job security with FG at best you just have a low probability of not losing your job for 35yrs

But in that 35yrs alot can happen especially for MDA and parastatals.
Things like outright sale, concession agreements and new policies from government can lead to downsizing or total loss of jobs

years Back Nitel use to be one of the best place to work, where is it today ? Where are the staff today ?

What of ajakouta steel ? Where are the staff today ?

NPA use to have 20k plus workers but due to PPP around 2004. downsizing happened, more than 15k lost their jobs.

We are going far sef, is it not Cardoso that came and in the name of restructuring people lost thier jobs at CBN.

I'm currently scared for the likes of NNPC.
If the likes of Atiku & Peter obi comes into power there is a high chance they will sell NNPC off.
just like that 6-7k will lose their jobs. Most likely few with connections will be shipped to Nurpc, nmdpra and co

If you dey inside government job better be planning your life and pray say nothing go happen during your time. If you sit with the mind "na govt job" you're doing yourself harm

Somebody shout.....powwweerrrrr

smartkester:
which source again?
Someone posted his offer letter that is showing 7.4m you're still arguing?. The information isn't a secret. When NNPC released offers in April, the offers where flying over everywhere on social media. The figures were clearly stated there

Na April figures sef you dey use.
Omo you need to level up

smartkester:
I don't know what Nimasa pays but I think they pay well too because they are an A grade agency

Close to around 18-20m per annum for gl8
Salary just got reviewed in July

smartkester:
Their counter parts in IOCs are earning in millions, NNpC entry level hasn't crossed 700k monthly net. ExxonMobil just completed its recruitment and the take home for graduate trainee is over N7m monthly so no big deal with NNPC salaries for now

How sure are you about this figure ?
The streets is saying something else.
I've heard this from a good source

smartkester:
They're sir. I have someone that works there. They get crazy bonuses and 13th month salary too. He goes home with almost 12m every February. The allowances come in February. Though he is a senior staff
Allowances -
wardrobe
Housing
Transport
Car grant - every 3 years
Upfront
13th month
And some other pecks..

Less I forget. They do foreign trips too

What other allowances does NUPRC and NMDPRA pays that surpasses this

Them NuPRC and NMdpra have 14th month

Bj01:
NPA is a sweet job.is as sweet as grade A juicy job.push before the end of the year.Something good may come out.

Juicy ke ?
Those guys just dey manage life
Nobody should pay attention to this guy

Omo I hear NNPC increment na die

Money na water ....who get figures ?

smartkester:
where did you see me advice him not to bother about FG work? Do you have problem with understanding?.

What if he gets an offer with a top Multinational, do you want to compare that with an FG work?

All I meant was that he shouldn't limit himself to FG work.

People are earning millions monthly working with private companies, you think if I get juicy offer today from an IOC I won't leave too and go for better offer

FG work has a steep curve along the line in your career.

The beginning stages mostly no dey make sense. You go suffer for years.

But you see later in your career at management level as you dey grow with your mates and set
Nothing multinational worker go show you.

Have you ever asked yourself why the powerful people in this country still put their children in govt jobs, when they can get them jobs in multinationals or even send them to another country to live ?

For example it's far better to be in the management level of any major oil MDAs than to be in IOC

Many IOC professionals later in their career hustle for management positions in NNPC ....e get why.
At that point you are literally the government's eye.

Somebody shout...Powwweerrrrr !!

Current board chairman NNPC was VP shell global and MD NLNG

Even Current MD NNPC was a shell worker.

Forget oil and gas sef, the likes of Zac adedeji FIRs MD worked in Big 4.

Same applies for military officers at the beginning the journey dey rough but you see as they grow later with their set/colleagues....them be ballers

This maybe hard to believe but there are FG workers In parastatals, they are not even In management sef and if you offer them appointment even if it is in World Bank them no go collect.

Somebody Shout....Powerrrrr !
FG no small o

Please this is not an attempt to discourage anybody from seeking better opportunities.
Please Let everybody do what will improve his/her financial standing but at the same time be carefully not lose what you have in an attempt to chase something better

Somebody shout ....powerrrrr !

Nimasa give us update ......money na water

Mohisah:
Lol u no suppose vex for another person decision nau..

Ask am whether na arewa guy first, cos it very common. Shey 1 guy from Sokoto reject NDIC because he was posted outside arewa.
1 ex Minister pikin no gree work.
Ther're many ppl from rich home here tho, acc case closed, but for him to turn dwn 13m+ is a shockin tin if na true.. Maybe he don see inheritance😁 If not earning such means they've streams of money mkin undisclosed dat u may not know if salary is comin or not.

So far as no be me dey cater for ur bills, do as u like

I'm not surprised I've seen many people reject working in tier 1 MDAs ....to them na suffer.

Some of them working there, na force them force them to work.

Asquare84:
It may surprise you that 550 k can not sustain you in this current economy. Until you start earning that amount you know it just a change. Last two months I was offer a job of 13 million per annum and I turned it down because of the tax liabilities.

Pls what do you mean by tax liabilities ?

Sultan8:
For those asking about NPA;
They have cleared promotion backlog by promoting about 1500 staff, increased performance bonuses and end of year benefits.
Something might come up (when? Not sure)

Lol, believe everything in the news at your own peril.
The 1500 staff is since 2023 or so.

Them increase benefits ke ?

I hear say CBN don do better increment.
Who get figures ?

Sodking:
FIRS asked us to present the resignation letter upon assumption of duty

What you're going for is induction and not assumption of duty.

Assumption of duty Is the official first day on the job.
Assumption of duty can even be months after induction.
Do not resign yet.
I'm sure at the end of the induction, the date of assumption of duty and posting letter will be given to you.

A day or two to your assumption of duty you can resign. The reason for this is because unforseen circumstances may arise and the date can be postponed again and you Don resign with no cash inflow for you.
FG dey sometimes dey do like who dey craze.
Nothing will happen, you'll be fine.

Also better leave that bank Job. No think am.
That's how one guy refused NNPC Gt offer because the salary no reach him ABO salary.. lmao
While comparing things like salary people forget things like pension, free time to enjoy your life and to a certain point job security.
With the way new banks are popping left right and center its only a matter of time for the banking industry to experience a down turn.

Collect your FiRS job, make sure you upgrade your skills and qualifications (most time you'll have to do it by yourself because most MDAs no dey try very few do)
Also as your upgrading yourself make sure to document everything with HR department (you no know where all these things fit carry you go)

On the outside people will think it is automatic enjoyment for you but no be so... lol.
Even inside the organisation you'll still need to know oga at the top for things to come to you.

At this point, I don talk too much.
wishing you the best in your endeavours

elaino:
Hehehe. CBN na money HQ, so when people hear, they assume naso dem dey chop legally. With FIRS upgrade, it's possibly better than CBN as it is. NUPRC though!!!

Aside revenue, another thing to consider is staff strength. If your staff strength is in plenty in the range of thousands the chances of big emoluments is lower.
For example people like customs and FIRs generate trillions but considering their staff strength the emoluments wouldn't be much.

Now compare that to NUPRC that is probably not more than 2 thousand (2k is much sef)

elaino:
Can you give estimates for legal remuneration of the two regulators?

No I don't have the figures but I use the eye test to judge from what I've seen.

My opinion is nothing CBN is hyped (big name that when your village people hear they will bow)

I doubt CBN pays more than NMDPRA sef.

Petroleum MDAs are well paid down to NNRA sef.

NUPRC is better than NMDPRA

NUPRC regulates upstream..

In oil and Gas the main money is in upstream (exploration)

Because of confidentiality i wont go deep , I remember what somebody told me what he used his first employment entry package to do....lmao CBN no fit give that kind money

Mohisah:
CBN is way better than NUPRC for my own side..
Ways of runs too much;😁 u go chop from NDIC, NIRSAL if u sabi hustle..
Nuprc na for elites to relax

Your analysis is partial.
You're comparing illegal renumeration of CBN vs the legal renumeration of NUPRC.

If you want to compare, either compare officially for each or vice versa illegally.

Last last everything depends on your department in the organisation.

Imagine being in a department for negotiation of contracts with IOCs that run into billions of dollars.
IOCs that are the Kings of taking shorts cuts in nigeria

Or imagine auditing contracts for sales of an oilfield.

Respect oyel money...he get why.

Lastly who are the Kings of stealing in Nigeria ?....the elites

elaino:
The guy insists it true. That means CBN offer is better than NUPRC offer. No wonder CBN guys here are silent. Na cult doings!!! 🤔🤔🤔

Lol this list obviously wrong
an NLNG staff renumeration can be the combination of CBN and NDIC together.

OritseBemigho:
Please who has an idea how much AfDB pays STS Administrative role?

Oboy AFDB ke ?
Asin the the AFDB wey everybody know ?

God don do am for you.
Your renumeration is in dollars

Remmedy:
In 4 years 100M don ready for any house you wanna build ….
This is a life changing job indeed

I may be wrong but I think this their first time payment, first time payments are usually heavy. Considering All allowances included and things like hotel in lieu for 2-3 months
If I'm correct then their subsequent upfront is around 10-11M
I maybe wrong

AmiableMosquito:
It's a little shy of 22m but well over 21m. But yeah, you are right.

GT ?

Remmedy:
No….. Both are maritime agencies but NIMASA is a real juicy agency and 10times better than NPA especially in terms of allowances and upfront …. But it’s really difficult to get in there … it’s a lot easier to get into NPA hence my request….

Should I send my CV sir ? 🤲🤲🙃

In terms of allowances NIMASA is ahead
NPA isn't far off like that.
NPA pension and Gratuity is top notch even NNPC no fit show them anything

If it's by salary and allowances choose NIMASA
But if na by Egunje and you sabi your way ? choose NPA

Moh99:
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.
