Jobs/VacanciesRe: Employment Without Offer Letter, What's Your Opinion On This? by linearity: 4:09pm On Dec 05, 2015
Eugenedimgba:
thus is my dilemma.I was called by the HR of a company I did an interview with to submit my current employment letter to their office.The school I'm working for, did not give me an employment letter.I am really nauseous about the whole thing right now.
Simply tell them that, the school you worked for did not give you an offer letter and give them the particulars and contact info of that school, If they have narrowed the job to you, they will definitely make that phone call to verify, if it is a requirement.

OP makes an assumption that is most certainly false.

It looks like they are skinning it, not necessarily cutting it up for meat. Lion skin is highly prized...worth much more than any meat on it.
Agreed, they are skinning it and obviously will sell the skin, but what do you think will happen to the fresh meat underneath that skin? You think they will throw it away or give it a befitting burial?

well, I obviously said all dat on a lighter note if u can read between the lines. In any case, don't be jealous cool.
As for the story, even though the stalker was stupid, but trust me, the girl was not just reacting to stalking. She is actually settling a score with the man. A close investigation might reveal that the guy don chop the kpomo and now refused to give her what she wants..............just saying.
Ladies can be bitchy dat way at times
I know you were not seriously, but I also know that; If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

Don't mind the OP jara, without hearing from the guy in this case, it is easy to conclude that, OP is trying to settle a score or two. It is laughable to say that, someone is stalking you on facebook; when you have all the tools to make it go away e.g. Mute the person, Delete, Block and even unfriend them period!

Yes, there are also two sides to a story, but something if prosecution rest, without even calling the defense, you will know that prosecution has lost the cast base on their arguments alone...so I am calling this for the guy that he was not stalking OP and to the extent that the guy's activities might have been irritating to the OP, the OP allowed and encouraged them and the OP refused to take the necessary and simple steps to stop them.

MRBrownJ:
PLS EDUCATE YOURSELF SO I DONT HAVE TO DO IT FOR YOU
the cow milk we buy from the stores is pasteurised and tested for diseases, contaminants, chemicals and bacterial borne illnesses etc, compared to breast milk whom is raw and gets NO CHECKS/TESTS/CONTROL WHATSOEVER.

so in fact what you are saying is that because you know where the milk comes from, and your aunt "looks" healthy, then her milk is ok to drink?! and you dont need any check/test etc?! this is completely WRONG (unless you have Xray vision that can detect such bacterias/diseases).... and this is as foolish as saying that a gal looks "ok" therefore you can have unprotected sex with her without testing her for any deadly diseases 1st.

btw there is LESS protein/Calcium/sodium in breast milk than in cow milk, and therefore breast milk is designed AND only beneficial in promoting infant health.



just because some men out there suck and drink their wife's breast milk (to each their own) doesnt change the DAMN fact that raw breast milk can possibly spread bacterias AND deadly infectious diseases such as HIV/HEPATITIS/SYPHILIS etc
You went off a ramp there boy, he drank her aunty's milk the same milk that has been feed to a little kid and the kid is just fine.

Yes, raw milk can transmit diseases, but stay within the context here.

NONSENSE!!!!
The milk that you buy from the store, where did you think it came? It is from the strange mammalians, that you know nothing of. The OP is even such of the source of the milk he drank, none of us are sure of the source of the milk sold to us in the market place today or the condition of those animals.

I think the only thing here is the humiliation of this poor guy, he will try to hide his face each time, this story is told...FYI many grown men suck and drink their wife's breast milk.

I ll advice u respond to the invitation from the boss. If all works fine n u r asked to resume ur position, all the better. However, if it's on the condition that the pervert manager be sacked... I strongly advice u plead with the boss not to sack him on ur account. Let him be retained n be held on a short leash pending a repeat of such incidence which i doubt will ever be if the fella has any conscience left in his empty skull. Also, such move 2 keep him on d job will give u some edge over him. As he is close enough 4 u 2 keep a lookout in case of retaliation.
I do not know why, it should be the OP's place to plead on behalf of this guy...just as much as she should not ask that he should be fired, he should not use that emotionally charged atmosphere to influence the Boss to retain this guy.

All companies have standard polices regarding things like these, leave the company to take whatever action they want to take. The Boss might felt pity due to the OP's pleading and retain this guy, but people like these are a liability to the company and the company will pay big time down the road.
CareerRe: My Experience With A Pervert Manager by linearity: 1:36am On Dec 03, 2015
OP, it is people like you that makes majority of folks to think twice before helping someone in need.

Now that, you have almost made up your mind about not honoring the Boss' invitation, guess who might loss their job if that perverts retains his? Yes! the poor security guy; the same guy that you complained to about your bad experience; the same guy that consoled you and offered to do something about it, yes! the same guy that went out of his way to do something about it.

That Manager will work tirelessly to frustrate that Security guy, because he will now see him as a hindrance...All because you chicken out and your actions now effectively throw this poor security guy under the bus, whose only crime is that he help a sister in need, by trying to right the wrongs done to her.

I understand your fears, but they are baseless, you are not going to ask for the manager to be fired (and who cares if he gets fired?). You are going to tell the Boss what happened to you, all you need to do is tell your side of the story and leave. If you do not want to go, at least write them a letter and drop it off at their office; thought, I will recommend you go.

Sooner or later you have to face or confront your fears in life....And if you cannot confront this guy that you barely know and wants to take advantage of you, I do not know if you are capable of facing life itself.

Jesusloveyou:
u maybe right, but did d constitution provide for d runner-up to take-up d mantle? If d constitution provided for replacement by apc without considering d previous primary election, if apc has d prerogative to select d replacement, why not choose faleke
The truth is, choosing Faleke would have been more problematic because he did not participate in the primaries, PDP would have gotten the seat back post election through the court...

Yahaya was a safer bet for APC under these circumstances, but that does not mean that APC is out of the woods yet. Yahaya is just the best hand they can play in this situation.

Now, if you go by the Electoral Act, there was no provision for the replacement of a candidate once polls have opened. The Act never anticipated the need for that, In fact the Act clearly stated that once polls are opened, you can no replace candidates...so that is where Faleke will have a case...Yes Faleke cannot inherit the vote already cast, but his case will be to fault INEC for allowing for the replacement of candidates after polls have been open and not because APC did not chose or that he have a claim to the votes already cast.

With that, the best that can happen is that, the court will cancel the elections and order a new one...I believe this will be PDP's argument also, but Faleke will help them to make it.

But it is stated in the article that there was a time she was without her hearing aids and affected her speech and hearing. That makes her a special needs case.
I understand your point, but that is not the definition of special needs, else most people will fall into that category e.g. People who use glasses, etc.

In this situation, special needs will be an individual, who the institution have to make additional accommodation towards that is not done to every other students, in order to meet their needs, and people in this category often request for this type of special accommodation.

She was just fine, did not request for special accommodation, all that happened was she forgot her hearing aid. And here is the real discrimination, if someone who can see moderately but have poor eye sight that prevents them from seeing far off e.g. sitting far off in the lecture theater; walks into that medical examining room without their glasses and they tested their ability to see further, to see if they can cope in the lecture room and that individual fail the test, do you think they will send that person away from school? The reasonable response will be to ask that person to go bring his/her eye glasses, which would have been the same response here.

sonnie10:
What is virtual card? What do you need virtual card for if you have the physical card details? All these banks are taking advantage of people's ignorance in Nigeria to make their service look extra ordinary.

Normally, in other countries all debit (prepaid) cards and some credit cards have CCV code on them. This is a three digit code unique for every card to facilitate online transactions. The CCV code is found at the back of every card, it is different from your ATM PIN. It is required for almost all online transactions.

So without having your card physically with you, once you remember your CCV code and date of expiration on your card, you are all set for any online or phone transactions. In fact, this is standard all over the world, which then brings up the issue of standards and regulatory policies in the country.

Therefore, I see no need for any virtual card, it is not even innovative. All they needed to do was to add CCV code to existing cards, along with a card expiration date. Once this is done, existing cards could be used virtually.

Abeg this people should stop preying on people's ignorance before Oyinbo them go laugh us tire.
Though I don't know about this GTB virtual card as they did not give any added advantage that this card have...

However, generally virtual cards have good security features that the physical ones do not have (at the virtual cards that I have used)...

1. You can generate instantly online, and they come with a Brand new number and CCV code that is different from your underlying card.
2. You can assign their value yourself...e.g. If you want to buy something worth N599.95 online, you can generate a card with that exact amount and use it immediately, this way, if yahoo boys hijack your number, they will hit zeros.
3. You can generate any many as you want, you can alter their expiration...you can generate a card that expires in one week or one month.
4. You can send it to a friend as gift, generate it, put the appropriate amount and send the info.
5. You can also tie it to a specific merchant, eg if you tie a particular virtual card to Amazon.com, if a charge comes in from say eBay.com, even if you have funds in the card, it will be declined.
6. You can delete the card, create new ones, increase/reduce balance any time you want.
7. etc etc etc.

danny56:
U no fear Godhuh What is there to be completed about already won election? Can 25 000 PVC voters overtake 41000 leading margin? Moreover accredited voters are just 19000. Even if all 19000 voters vote for other parties without voting a dime for APC..... APC will still win. Faleke has two choice here else he will be used and dumped.
(1) he should withdraw himself for all votes to be invalid.
(2) he should sue INEC for the acclaimed error.
All that does not matter, what matters is INEC declared the elections inconclusive...had INEC declared Audu a winner, we will not be debating all these, because Faleke would have been on his way to be the next Govornor.

Secondly, even if Faleke withdraws; the votes cast cannot be invalidated because in Amaechi vs INEC, the Supreme Court have ruled that, vote cast are for the party and not necessarily for a specific candidate, so APC would have easily chosen another running mate for Bello, so it will be Yahaya's lost.

Thirdly, Yahaya can never be the Govornor, since he did not participate in the primaries, the electorate laws forbides him from becoming the Govornor, so if he takes PDP to court and by some miracles he wins, the best case scenario will be new elections, there is no scenario that will make him inherite the votes already cast and through them became a legally binding Govornor, even if APC does that, they will lose the Govornorship to PDP through the court system.

Fourthly, Yes Yahaya can sue INEC for some errors, the truth is that, INEC would have easily called the election for Audu and declare him the winner because, it is impossible for PDP to win the rescheduled election giving the small amount of registered voters, but the reality is INEC did not do that and that call is subject to INEC's discretion i.e. They did not err or violate any law by not declaring Audu the winner, in essence you cannot sue them over an action the law have given them discretion over, so Faleke will come back empty handed.

So, Faleke's only choice here is to remain the debuty or withdraw his candidacy and save any legal fees, he intend spending.

I disagree. Boni Haruna and Goodluck Jonathan did not participate in primaries before taking over the mantle of their bosses

The ticket was an Audu-Faleke ticket and since one half is gone, the other should take over

What right has Bello who decamped to another party and actively campaign aganst APC have over the APC ticket
PassingShot is correct, if APC make Faleke the candidate they will to PDP in the court, because Faleke did not participate in the primaries as required by law.

The cases you cited are not similar to the one at hand and as PassingShot had noted; if INEC had declared Audu, the winner of the election before he passed, even before he was sworn in, constitutionally Faleke would have been the neck Govornor and that situation would had be been similar to the cases you cited.

I do not think APC like this choice, but legally they have been boxed into a corner donot have many viable alternatives that will stand the test of the law. Note that, regardless of this choice by APC, PDP will still go to court after the election, so knowing that, it will be foolish for APC to weaken their chances of winning.

The control demolition allegation was given full consideration during the coroner hearing, it was thoroughly investigated and debunked...

This is citation from testimonies in refuting the controlled demolition theory:

The Lagos State Fire Service carried out a 360 degrees survey and found no evidence of explosives, the Investigating Police Officer said, there was no evidence of the use of explosives at the site of the collapsed building, nor perception of any smell of explosives. The Chief Medical Examiner said, there was no trace of carbon monoxide seen in the lungs of the deceased and none of the bodies were charred or burnt.

Igalas will be favoured and Audu's camp will have a sense of victory.
APC will be stupid to even nominate Mohammed or anyone who didn't go through the primaries; they will loss if PDP take them to court post election.

It is clearly stated that, INEC can only give return certificate to a candidate who pass through all the nomination proces, including the primaries, Mohammed did not fit that bill.

And, they cannot conduct a new primary, the window for that has closed. So, APC is in a pickle, their only choice is between Yahaya and Faleke.

pls youngman try and neutral in sensitive maras as this,dont b blinded by unneccessary sentiments.
Dude, I am very neutral and sensitive, moreso to the people who lost their lives and not to contractors who did not take the necessary permits and also cut corners in the building construction.

It is myopic of you to compare the America Jurisprudence to that of Nigeria. America do not prosecute gays, do you want Nigeria to also not prosecute gays? The laws in both Countries are different, moreso in the case of the WTC, the FBI investigated and did not find the Engineers criminally responsible or negligent, hence no charges were filed and there was a direct external force (two ariplanes) that impacted the building.

However in the current case in Nigeria, there was no external impact, moreso the four Nigerian Agencies (The Coroner, NBBRI - Nigeria Building And Road Research Institute, COREN - Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria and BCPG - Building Collapse Prevention Guild ) inspected and investigated the situation and found the construction Engineers and owners liable and the Coroner then recommended that, they be prosecuted.

In addition to not obtaining building permit, they also found the following inadequacies:

1. Inadequate beams of 750mm by 225mm (should have been 900mm by 300mm)
2. Inadequately reinforced columns (should have been reinforced with 12 x Y25 bars or 20 x Y20mm bars. Instead they used 10 x Y20 bars (as seen in the video released by SCOAN).
3. Inadequate bearing pressure for the central column due to the 2m x 2m x 0.9m foundations.
4. Failure to introduce rigid zones for bracing the structure and did not design the frames as an unbraced structure.
5. Failure to provide movement joints that could have absorbed any movement due to creep, contraction, expansion and differential settlement etc..
6. 8 out of the 12 main beams of the structure failed because they were undersized, under-reinforced (both in tension and shear), the tension bars were poorly anchored to the column supports and 8 x Y20 was used instead of 14 x Y20.
7. The ground floor columns were slender and readily gave in to buckling.

Regarding the 'Controlled Demolition Theory'; The Lagos State Fire Service carried out a 360 degrees survey and found no evidence of explosives, the Investigating Police Officer said, there was no evidence of the use of explosives at the site of the collapsed building, nor perception of any smell of explosives. The Chief Medical Examiner said, there was no trace of carbon monoxide seen in the lungs of the deceased and none of the bodies were charred or burnt.

The so call hovering aircraft theory was also debunk; the aircraft was flying at altitude of 1100feet, which is about 109 floors, i.e 103 floors higher than the 6 storey building, also the flight path shows a horizontal distant of about 137 meters between the plane and the building; therefore, the Aircraft did not actually hover direct above the collapsed building.

NBRRI stated that..."the building failed as a result of the ground columns yielding due to excessive weight on the 750mm by 300mm columns and the 10 x Y20mm bars".....The BCPG stated that..."the a sudden and complete collapse of the building was inevitable because the building was not robust or stable enough and that a column failure by buckling can result in a sudden collapse like the one witnessed, more so because there were no rigid zones within the structure.

This is the Coroner report, please read it unbiased and with an open mind...

We all know rape when we see one. They can't even talk of the gang-rape anymore, they are now shifting to 'a minor at 17' for Nigeria. It would have been raped if she was deceived into it or forced irrespective of age. This is a case of a Use and Dump side-chick. Simple!
You should understand that, there are two sides to this story and the only people that know the truth are Sugarbelly and Mr. Audu...You did not know the truth, neither does Mrs. Audu, both of you appeared on the stage after the facts.

Now, the major reason that, people are focusing on the 'a minor at 17' is because, that is the undisputed fact in this case. The issue of rape, gang rape, etc is she-said, he-said and the truth is, no one here knows what really transpired behind those closed doors.

Secondly, you have a very wrong view about rape; when you surmised that....it would been raped if she was deceived into it or forced irrespective of age. I see you as an intelligent individual, and for you to fumble this badly on a clear-cut definition of rape as it pertains to the Nigerian penal code is troubling; this fact is crystal clear and not subject to a debate, it clearly shows that you are not objective.

In the Nigeria penal code, the age of sexual consent is 18; any such act done before the age of 18, even if it was one day before her 18th birthday, irrespective of the cooperation/consent of the minor involved is called rape period! The Nigeria penal code did not mince words about that, it is clear and direct.

Thirdly, I sincerely believe that Mrs. Audu should fire their current lawyer and hire another one. Any lawyer that advise his/her client to release emails, or private contents publicly, is not worth their billings. You do not win cases on the blog or internet and anything you post publicly can be used against you in the court of law...my advice is for them to delete all those emails and chat and believe me, there are lots of damning evidence there...In a bid to prove her rape allegations false, the released contents have substantiated that she was a minor when these started and that offence is punishable in Nigeria by prison terms.

Also, Mrs. Audu in her response has admitted against self-interest that, this lady has a mental issue and that, she will reach out to her to get her some help. I see an opening here for a good lawyer...because section 282 (1) of the sharia penal code in Nigeria states that, having sexual intercourse with a girl of less than 14 years or with a person of unsound mind, whether with or without her consent is rape.

The truth is, both sides seems to have committed some crimes, she must have embellished the truth and accused them of some acts that might not have taken place or exaggerated some events, but the Audus by their own admissions have committed some offences here.
CrimeRe: Mustapha Audu's Wife Curses Sugabelly; Defends Husband Over Rape Accusations by linearity: 2:03pm On Nov 28, 2015

God bless you @ Mrs Zahra Mustapha Audu!

We all can see the lies and fraud of your husband's spoilt ex-side chick called sugabelly. Be rest assured that Nigerians of good conscience sincerely mourn with your family on the loss of your patriarch. Be rest assured that all the true lovers of justice and haters of blackmail are behind your husband in this baseless accusation against him by that obsessive ex-side chick.

God be with your family
It appear you have a personal stake on this matter.

I have read Sugarbelly's accusations, your prior post detailing edited emails, then this Mrs. Audu rebuttal; the truth is, non of these proved that Sugarbelly's accusations are lies, neither did Sugarbelly's story proved that, she is telling the truth either.

But, one thing caught my attention in Mrs. Audu's rebuttal and that is her trying to curse Sugarbelly and wishing that all her accusations befall her in this life.

As Africans, we do not take curses likely and some often fall back to them to prove their innocence and to portray that, the other side is at fault, and the rest of us sometimes takes the one doing the cursing seriously, because it is usually seen as a two edged sword...and no one can purposely wish themselves harm by invoking curses and damination.

Surprisedly, if you read Mrs. Audu's curse, they are one sided and does not contain a test as to the truthfulness of the accusations...When I saw the topic heading about 'Mrs. Audu ....Cursing...' I was expecting to read her say it, the way we proclaim curses in Africa i.e. I was expecting to read something like...

"If my husband did not rape Sugarbelly (or cause her to be raped) as he is been accused, may all the ills that Sugarbelly is talking about befall her in this life, but if my husband raped or had a hand in her rape, may ills, bad furtunate, e.t.c befall my husband and may such happen to my future daughter"

Something along the above, will have given her curse more credibility, because she would been seen as having a stake in it depending on the side that is right.

You can now see, why some people, myself inclusive are on the fence on this matter; because there is nothing out there to collaborate each side and please, do not be too invested in this case...only Audu and Sugarbelly knew exactly what took place, and each side will attend to present their case in the best possible light, while withholding elements, testimonies or evidence that will put them in a bad light...this is natural and it is just the human nature, we are all created to preserve self first and there is nothing wrong with that.
