Hi, I need everybody's input in this case:

I outsourced a rewriting project to a freelancer . The price was $30/2200 words and the deadline was 24 hours. After the freelancer submitted the write-up, i noticed that not only was the freelancer's write-up inconsistent; there were so many grammatical errors in the write-up. I pointed out all those mistakes to him, one hour before the deadline but he refused to do so. His complains: that his job was not to make the ideas coherent because i asked him to rewrite an article ( which has some incoherent ideas). I pleaded with him, yet he remained intractable.. Actually, in my project description, i asked him to rewrite the article and to add some little details in order to add more flair to the write-up. This freelancer was giving me so many unprofessional excuses of no power and all that. PLEASE I NEED YOUR ADVICE. I WANT YOU TO ADVISE ME WHETHER I STAND A BETTER CHANCE OF WINNING THIS CASE IF I WANT TO DISPUTE IT. The freelancer is just too arrogant. I don't want him to get away with this. Meanwhile, if i am at fault, please do not hesitate inform me.

dont know what to say as i have never had a dispute before, but if the JOB is still available pls gimme lemme do it. drop your link so i can at least follow you and bid for jobs. help a fellow nigerian...

TonyeBarcanista:
I'm compelled to write this piece not to spite President Muhammadu Buhari but to cure his misconception of ministers. Earlier today, Mr President was quoted to have made a statement that suggest that ministers are not to relevant in the running of government. According to President Buhari


UNDERSTANDING Ministers and Civil Servants Roles:
Ministers:
Firstly, we have to appreciate the purpose of ministers of the federation. We all we agree that all political parties and candidates standing for elections come with their own program and agenda. These programs are highlighted in their respective document called their Manifesto. The Manifesto is usually in concordance with the overall ideology of the respective parties. When a party's Presidential candidate get elected, he assemble a team of men and women of intellectual standing and believers of his vision to help formulate policies, supervise implementations and defend these policies before the public to actualise the vision and fulfil the President's electoral programs. These group of people are called Ministers. The loyalty of the ministers are to the occupant of the President's office, the country and in most cases the ruling party. Ministers sit and deliberate on policy issues and strategy with the president

Civil Servants:
Every country have a workforce that carry out day-2-day activities of the government in power. We all agree that it is impossible for every government to come on board with their own workforce every 4-8years, hence the country provide for a 'permanent' workforce that will work with every administration. This workforce is called the Civil Service. They are non-partisan career people. They are not to help any political party or candidate formulate policies but are to work with every ruling party and administration to IMPLEMENT policies. They are technocrats and bureaucrats. Their loyalty is not to the ruling party or individual in power but to the "Office of the President" and the Country. They have NO business deliberating on policy issues and strategy with the president or his party. They only take instruction. Let's see a case study...

Case Study: Petroleum Ministry
In the Ministry of Petroleum Resources, there is the Minister, the Permanent Secretary and career Civil Servants, and other agencies and department (eg NNPC, PPPRA etc) under the ministry.

The Minister sit with the President to formulate policies and programs for the sector in line with the President's agenda. S/he prepares budget for the ministry, see to the implementation of this program/policies (supervision) and is answerable to the President, the party and the public. Statutorily, S/he is the Chairperson of the NNPC. She also supervises other department and agencies under her ministry on behalf of the President.


The Permanent Secretary is the Account officer of the ministry and most senior civil servant(rank) in the ministry. S/he is responsible for the implementation of the Minister's policies/program. S/he is the head of the ministerial tender board BUT any contract approved by the board has to be countersigned by the minister (to ensure that they are in tune with the Minister's/President's agenda). He/she is not a member of the Cabinet, neither can S/he replace the minister as the Chairperson of NNPC except S/he resigns and is appointed minister thereafter.


The roles of the minister and permanent secretary are distinct and straight forward. The importance of ministers cannot be over-emphasised. It is instructive to note that Nigeria is not an isolated case when it comes to ministers/permanent secretaries. The United States for instance have Under-Secretaries, which is Nigeria equivalent of Permanent Secretaries, and Secretaries which is ministers equivalent.

Contraty to Buhari's perception, ministers are not for 'noisemaking', neither are they meant to 'fill space' except the incompetent and clueless ones. Without cabinet ministers, a country will be likened to one on 'Auto-piloting'. More importantly, our constitution provide for offices of Ministers just as it provide for the offices of the President and Vice President.

To be fair with the President, his perception of Ministers is inappropriate. I wonder what prompted him to utter such statement when he was a former minister under the General Olusegun Obasanjo military regime between 1977-79. Is he trying to say that he was a 'noisemaking' minister in General Obasanjo cabinet?


May God Bless Us All

oga barcanista, i have been seeing your post opposing this government from day one, ppl like you are the reason why nigeria would not move forward. accept the fact that [b][/b]JONA has lost and support the present one to take nigeria to a greater height. that what a patriotic citizen would do not come here everyday to find a fault in every utterance buhari makes.
minister are there for just four years and you are saying they develop policies, well to me it would take more than that, am sure he would have appointed the most senior person in each ministry as the minister because they know more about how to get maximum output from their ministries. but lets say he wouldnt because he doubts their loyalty.
the administration showed us how important ministers were.

anybody with any job too heavy for him/her should contact me. need some right now

victor101:
Lordfredick yes you have to download the app and send your time sheet to the client to pay you accordingly. Here is a tip, tell the client an approximate time it will get uou to finish the job, then pacify him to fund escrow, then start work, send and he approves payment. In all it depends on your relationship with the client. For example I just write the time I start the work and end on the top of the doc I've worked on then sent to him, then he approves and releases payment to me. I have never downloaded that timer thing. Na timer wan do the work abi na me!...

does this mean that the employer can still release funds to me nontheless, cause i tried asking for the release of a set milestone and freelancer said i can only be paid for hourly projects thru generated invoice from their app.

please whats this thing about hourly projects where they are saying you cant request for milestones. does this mean that without desktop app no pay

tranxo:
Tell him you do not know the meaning of escrow, that the only thing you know is milestone. Simple!

thank you

who is online, pls what does escrow mean.
this employer is telling me he would deposit money into escrow for me.

topsquino:

AgreatMan:
heh em! clears throat. I have a suggestion for those who have not gotten any project. this guy lordfredrick5378, you personal profile is not properly punctuated. If you cannot punctuate what you wrote about yourself, how can I trust you to punctuate my work? This other guy: Victorkeme, the reason why anyone will click on your job is because they want you to tell em sometin about you. But with you, you simply asked whoever is clicking on your profile to CONTACT you if they want to know more instead of typing out what you are made of.

Disclaimer, this text is written by a guy like you who doesn't actually have much experience other than four reviews.

thanks, now that i have made the necessary corrections, would you give me a good job?

boladale:
Only Indians get away with shoddy profiles.
