Says who? Then who are the men giving us job? Any job have its potential customers and whatever you do, be good at it.

Yeah, every work has it's targeted audience.
I just suggested that cuz barbing is easier, and you earn daily money with less stress

You should opt for barbing as a guy, unless you want to sow ladies wear too cuz guys barely sow.
We buy ready made jeans and top and we're good. Barbing on the other hand is easier to learn and set up within a short time, and definitely people barb daily but people doesn't sow daily.

God, why am I in this country?
Imagine, one was saying 5g was the cause of coronavirus. Another said he traced the origin of George Floyd to Imo state, therefore he gave him a "befitting" burial.
This country na cruise, politicians dey faint when probe, some pastors dey yarn nonsense.

Angelfrost:
Really??! How exactly does your math work??!

You mean even if Barca wins 3 remaining games (85 points), and Madrid does what you typed above with their remaining 4 games (85 points), they will still win the league with Barca having more goals??!

Nope, laliga uses head to head to decide not goal difference.

I had this same experience in 2016 at Ebutte Metta environs when I was fresh out of school and looking for a job. Exactly the same thing but the video they played was different Sha. I think ours was from Matthew Ashimolowo

We were even told to even switch off our phones or put it on vibration. After the so called boss explained the business and told us about the price of every thing, I just knew this isn't what I signed up for and that I just wasted my money that I'm managing that day. They were so serious and if your phone rings they'll send you out cos according to them you can't follow instructions blah blah blah.

Alas! I saw people that were looking for job paying for what they talked about. I asked myself, how can you be looking for job and have over 10k to drop for one story that you're unsure of.

The "boss" said any amount you can pay now, pay it and the following week, you'll come with the Balance and they will do the inauguration or something for such person into the team. I just laughed as people were paying even 2k,1k as acknowledgment money, promising to transfer when the get home

I just left as people were busy filling forms and dropping details for a scam interview. In this Lagos you can't afford to be naive and gullible.

Ah swear, they must be the same people .
I left there before they start filling the form.

padi94:
Pls was there anyone who paid d suppose money, that is the person we want to hear from, not you OP.

Make we know Westin the money fetch, or na scam

Wetin the money wan fetch? Is it not clear enough that it is scam? So you'll pay the money too waiting for the profit it'll yield

Queenmark:
Some of those "gullible people" are also members. You know the saying monkey see monkey do.

Those agents you see are also linked to them. They get commission on every person they bring.

In Lagos everybody dey hustle

I knew they planted some of their people among those coming for interview, they must have rented that place too.

EzzyCarter:
Scamming people who are struggling to pay their bills due to unemployment is one of the most heartless things one could ever do. Ppl are wicked mehn!

Very wicked set of people, they really took a lot of time brainwashing them to believe their scam scheme.

Screenshot of my chat with the agent before I went for the interview

Good afternoon Nairalanders.
I want to share my interview experience with a fraudulent company or should I call them individuals. It's quite a long story and it would have been great if nairaland have a voice note feature. Anyways, I'll type.

It begins like this, I'm an undergraduate of a federal University. I've been at home since the beginning of the lockdown and I'm really fed up of staying at home. So beginning of this week, I hinted like 3 of my friends that I'll like to get a job I can manage for the remainder of the school lockdown as the FG doesn't seems ready to open school yet. So, one of them told me to contact an agent in charge of stuff like that, then I told him I don't know any agent oo. So he said he knows one that got him a job when he just finished his secondary school before he got admission into the university. So, he told me he'll link me up with the agent that he charges 3k for the service. So I got talking with the agent on WhatsApp and he asked for my location and I told him I live on mainland in Lagos oo. So, he asked me the type of job I'll like to get and I told him,I'll prefer a front desk officer/ secretary in any small organization or better still a sale rep in a supermarket.
Then, on Friday evening, he sent me a screenshot of an organization's invite for an interview the next day (Saturday) at ikeja( I'll attach the screenshot). Then I asked him what the company is into, he said business development and I said okay, then I asked for the post of the vacancy but he just told me to go and I'll find out. Then, I thought to myself perhaps, it's the front desk officer job that I told him before.
Fast forward to yesterday which was the day of the supposed interview which was slated for 8am. I got there about 8:05, but I was surprised the company doesn't have a signature outside the building that shows the name of the company or what they are into. I got in anyways, and I saw a couple of people filling an attendance paper, I was surprised I was no 46 on the list cuz I think I'm the only one for the interview. I got into the reception and I saw a lot of people seated on chairs so I took a sit too. While on the seat, a lot of thoughts came running into my mind like I was the youngest person there, and some people were dressed in shirt and tie while some on casual dress. I was about to leave cuz I don't expect such and I'm only an undergraduate looking for a minor job before resumption but something just kept me seated to wait and see how it goes. While at the reception, they played Dangote's interview with an Aljazeera presenter and Sijibomi Ogundele's interview( real estate entrepreneur) too. I looked around and I saw about 3 wall pictures of quotes from Nelson Mandela, Maya Angelou and Mark Zuckerberg and a photo painting too. After being seated for about 45mins, a lady attended to us and told us that the interview will be in two phases with two different groups, that we'll be grouped from our names on the attendance. So she started calling names, one group was asked to stay downstairs and the other upstairs, I was part of the group upstairs.
So when we got there and we were seated, another lady came in and told us that, she'll play a video and we should listen and jot down things as she'll ask us some questions from the video that will determine our selection, meanwhile I still don't know the nature of the job while seated. After the video ended, she came in again and introduced herself, and started asking questions in the video. The video was abt entrepreneur mindset Sha, so she went on and on the video then she started talking about she got into the company like we did by getting interview messages. She never mentioned the name of the company all along, she kept on saying they offered information services and when we get in we'll be partner of the company and not an employee, we'll get income and not salary as income will increase every month. She went on for about 3 good hours. After she was through she said she'll introduce her CEO that'll do the selection. Before the supposed CEO came in, they played a video by Pst Sam Adeyemi talking about taking risk in a business. I already got the whole scope of the interview but I kept seated and I'll like to see how it ends. So, the CEO came in, nicely dressed with a fake gold wrist watch and he talked about how he was a medical student of Babcock but he didn't practice as people expected as he got to know about this business while he was serving as a corper. He said he made 20k in the 1st month, 45k the 2nd month, 90k 3rd mth and 145k the 4th month. I was already laughing sheepishly inside as I was shaking my head for the gullible people there who were so into the bullshit.
To cut the long story short, he said we'll have to pay a token of 20k for the license from International Research Company which has it's headquarter at California in USA. He said the majority of the money will be used to request for a license as they'll have to mail the International organization today and they'll get the license before Monday which will be needed for a conference they'll be hosting on Monday at a location that'll be texted to them on their phone and mail. I kept asking intense questions but these guys always find a way to shut me up. He was even of the opinion that they can pay with cash or card as they have POS there with them or even borrow as this is a lifetime opportunity. Fools!
When I was fed up with their bullshits, I rose up to leave but I really pity those that are still there, especially some old people there too.

Pls, moderators push this to front page so others can share their experiences too for people to learn.

Hello, Nairalanders.
I'm an undergraduate of a federal Nigeria University. I've been at home since the beginning of the lockdown, but now that the lockdown has been eased, I need a job for to do cuz I can't keep staying at home doing nothing as federal government and ASSU are still in mess. And judging by the recent news of the criteria for reopening of schools, I don't think resumption is feasible right now. I'm open for any lucrative job right now.
PS: I'm based in Lagos. Thank you

Wish the Greatest Of All Time of football well as he marks his 33rd birthday.

Over the course of his career, Argentine footballer Lionel Messi, considered by most to be one of the best footballers in the world, has received six Ballon d'Or awards, the most for any football player, as well as the 2009 FIFA World Player of the Year and The Best FIFA Men's Player 2019. Widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, Messi holds the record for most goals in La Liga (440), the Supercopa de España (14), the UEFA Super Cup (3), as well as the most goals scored in one calendar year (91 in 2012), and the football player with the most assists in football history, with 308 career assists. He has scored 699 senior career goals for club and country. He is also the first player in history to win six European Golden Shoes.

Claiming that Lionel Messi is a record breaker would be an understatement. In fact, the Barcelona and Argentina star could be classified as the epitome of a record breaker.

It could prove to be a nearly impossible task to break down Messi’s 10 best records, but that is exactly what we will attempt to do in this article.

The records chosen will be based on very important criteria.
10)Most La Liga Hat-Tricks in a Season
The Argentina international holds the record for most La Liga hat-tricks in one season with eight
9. Champions League Top Scorer Four Years in a Row
Ending the Champions League campaign as the leading goal scorer is but a faint dream to most footballers. To lead the competition shows the upmost ability of a player and Lionel Messi has proven himself time and again.

The 25-year-old forward has led the illustrious competition in scoring an incredible four times. Only Gerd Muller has accomplished the same feat, but Messi has put his own spin on the remarkable achievement.

Lionel Messi is the only player to ever finish as the Champions League or European Cup top scorer in four straight seasons.

The record shows the continued dominance of Messi. But pulling off the feat four straight seasons also shows that the Argentine is not letting up while maintaining his best form.

8. Most Goals Scored for Argentina in One Year

Argentina boasts one of the richest histories in the world of football. Any player that can call himself one of best goal scorers for Argentina certainly deserves praise. Lionel Messi happens to be one of those players.

In the past year, amid claims that Messi could not replicate his Barcelona form with the Argentina side, the captain took it upon himself to prove the doubters wrong.

After the calendar year had finished, Messi again put his name alongside the greats that wore the Argentina shirt. Lionel Messi joined Gabriel Batistuta as the players to score the most goals in one year having netted 12 times.

The feat was surely remarkable, seeing as how Argentina has boasted some of the greatest players to ever kick a football. But for Messi, the record was more of a personal milestone that has finally silenced the countless critics.

7. Most Goals Scored in El Clasico

If there is one stage on which Lionel Messi is demanded to perform, it would be El Clasico. Not only has the Barcelona star performed brilliantly against his rivals, he has cemented his place in history.

Earlier this month Lionel Messi accomplished the remarkable task of tying Alfredo Di Stefano's record for most goals scored in El Clasico (via Goal.com).

Both players now sit with 18 goals in the always famous meeting. But even though Messi shares this record, it receives a higher rating because of the unfinished work.

Messi is still only 25 years old. There is no telling how high the Argentine can set the record once he passes Di Stefano, but it is certain that the number will likely remain unrivaled for quite some time.

6. Most Goals Scored in a La Liga Season

Merely one season after Cristiano Ronaldo broke the La Liga record for most goals scored in one season with 41, Lionel Messi shattered the mark by netting 50 times (via fcbarcelona).

The record marked one of Messi's biggest accomplishments and rightly so. The Argentine yet again stamped his name on the Spanish record books with a feat that appeared to be humanly impossible.

Barcelona's star averaged over one goal per game to break the record. With such an average, it was no surprise that analysts began to wonder if they were indeed witnessing the greatest player to ever grace the football pitch.

And though Messi's La Liga record looks impossible to break in the future, it is none other than the Argentine who is challenging the astonishing benchmark.

As Fox Sports has argued, Messi has already eclipsed 40 goals this season and is on track to shatter his own record. If Lionel Messi does manage to surpass 50 goals in a La Liga season, there is no level of praise that could be deemed too high.

5. Most Goals in a Club Season

If breaking the record for most goals scored in a La Liga season weren't enough, Lionel Messi took it upon himself to also set the record for most goals in a club season in the same year.

The Argentine scored an unbelievable 73 goals across all competitions, which previously was a number thought to be beyond the realm of possibility. Though the forward played in multiple competitions, no one would ever expect a single player to amass such a number of goals.

In fact, Lionel Messi outscored such a significant number of entire teams, so the record appears to be something of legend.

However, if not for Messi's amazing goals with Barcelona that very season, he may never have broken his most remarkable record, which we will see later.

4. Barcelona's Top Goalscorer in Multiple Categories

Simply saying that Lionel Messi is Barcelona's all-time leading scorer does not do justice to the Argentine. In fact, Messi holds so many Barcelona goal scoring records it is quite hard to keep up with them all.

To begin with, Lionel Messi is Barcelona's top scorer in all official competitions, with an astounding 308 goals. But the Argentine has not stopped there.

Messi is also Barcelona's leading scoring in La Liga with 211 goals as well as the Champions League's with 58. The world's greatest player has also netted 63 times to lead the club with the most goals scored in international competitions.

Aside from his mountainous amount of goals, Messi has also scored 16 hat-tricks in La Liga for Barcelona to hold the record, as well, at 22 hat-tricks overall.

Playing for such a storied club as Barcelona is something special. But to claim this many records within the club seems unreal.

3. Scoring in the Most Consecutive League Matches

One of Lionel Messi's most incredible records is being set as we speak. The Argentine recently scored a brace on the weekend to extend his tally to 18 straight games in which he has scored in La Liga (via Fox).

Scoring in so many consecutive league matches is not only a record for La Liga, it is also the highest total in all of world football.

During the 18-match run, Messi has amassed 29 total goals and does not show signs of stopping. If the Argentine's record were to rest where it currently is, the feat would be incredible. But the mere fact that Messi is still able to extend the record makes it even more astounding.

As so many of his historic markers are, it would truly be a miracle if anyone were able to overtake this record. And with Messi still setting the bar with every passing week, the final number may be a long time coming.

2. Four-Time Winner of the FIFA Ballon D'Or

There remain no appropriate words to accurately describe how tremendous it was for Lionel Messi to win his fourth Ballon d'Or. The Argentine surpassed those who had been fortunate enough to win the award three times to truly cement his name among the greatest.

The award is one of the biggest prizes in the world of sports. It is given to the player who stands out above the best in the world in one calendar year, and to say that a player has remained the best for four years should be unbelievable.

Yet Lionel Messi is not finished sealing his legacy as the greatest player to ever kick a football.

Some may argue that the Barcelona star is not the best yet. But with accolades such as this one, it is very difficult to argue against Lionel Messi.

Like so many other records previously mentioned, this may not be over.

Lionel Messi is still only 25 years old and has not slowed his progress down one bit. The four-time winner is very much a favorite to take home the trophy again after this year.

If Messi does end his career with more than four Ballon d'Or trophies, it will truly be something the world may never see again.

1. World Record for Most Goals Scored in One Year

This past December Lionel Messi did something that should be impossible. After Gerd Muller's record of 85 goals in one year had stood for 40 years, Lionel Messi broke and reset the number for himself.

The Argentine wonder finished the year of 2012 having found the net an immaculate 91 times. Allow that to sink in, again.

Never has anyone dreamed that a feat like this could be accomplished, and yet it was. Even if some are not willing to admit that Lionel Messi is already the greatest to ever play, this record alone shows that he eventually will be.

Messi's 91 goal mark receives our top rating based on the fact that it may never be broken. If a player were to challenge Messi's incredible feat, the football world would all but stop in awe and wonder.

For Lionel Messi, the football gods have spoken.

91 goals in one season is something that every player, fan and manager will pause in silence just to admire. It is simply one of the greatest records in the history of sports and Lionel Messi's shining moment in a career full of glory.
