Strike is bad but other avenues in Nigeria including the courts have become too politicised!
In the court, ASUU tendered 4 consecutive letters written to the govt reminding them of the signed agreement they failed to keep without any explanation, even the govt did not reply those letters let alone given reasons why ASUU should soft-pedal, only media showcasing! The court ruled against ASUU in that aspect, though they agreed that ASUU be paid through any means they want, must not be IPPIS, one of the main reasons they went for strike!
The situation is not suitable for both ASUU and FG. The inclinations in UTAS will cover for the 8 months in less than a year and the gains continue....., a situation the government won't want. It will all end in a CBA (Collective Bargain Agreement).

Russia is throwing a subtle message at US and NATO. The message is straight and plain.
"You want war, we give you war' ...

Since NATO is trying to encircle Russia, I think it is also wise for Russia to start arming its allies with Nuclear weapons also. The repercussion of this move is that Russia is starting to position its weapon at strategic places too, so that when the nukes start going off, countries like Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania which borders Russia; NATO countries who are neighbours of Russia, which the US is using as frontal to wade war against Russia, will be the first to collect.

It is even refreshing and surprising to see Un!ted State, during its reaction to the deployment, referencing the Cuban missile crisis as a period unworthy of repetition. Even using it to preach to Russia. The same Cuban missile crisis started by US after it threatened to nuke Cuba just because of Russia's military base in the Cuba-country near US. Yet US want Russia to accept same thing in Ukraine.

War strategy is a like chess game. Give it to Putin. He is a master of the game.

Sorry pls. What's the point of having Nigeria Air exactly if this is the case?

RealLordZeus:
This is not an expose, FG already admitted they concessioned (don't know if its the right word) Nigeria Air to Ethiopian Airlines after bidding.

This man will be easily forgotten....
40yrs old whiskey politics has come to an end.

jackcanfield:
The problem is discipline, because soon minister would be sending notes to the Airline "oya carry my daughter" , and we also have a yeye mentality of seeing government asset as nobody asset, the Nigeria Government shouldn't have a stake sef, rather institution like those Pension Administrators should and the general public.

jackcanfield:
Why not 20% shebi they are technical partners and who says Nigerian can't manage their own aircrafts..

INTEGRITYA1:
Many revelations toward the end of Buhari's Presidential Era

But when Buhari decided to make me Minister of education, I called some people to assist me work on policy document on education because I was novice in the sector.

Competency should be the main criteria for appointments, for it has direct effect and implications.

Buhari himself have also confessed that; he couldn't perform under pressure.

Meanwhile; Presidential Office come with so much pressure.

We are hopeful that; Tinubu will get things right.

May God guide our leaders right and help our youth truth to know.

All thanks to everyone for their immense contributions towards my elder brother predicament. This place is truly home away from home. For those getting to know or who just come across this thread, you can read through the link posted above to get a grasp of where I'm coming from.


Someone sent me a mail having gone through my post and we both shared contact. He works on the island and he was willing to absorb my elder brother into his organisation. It's an organisation where one learn a skills and get paid monthly. Then after being certified in your skills, you can be employed as a full staff into the organisation. He would be given #20,000 monthly as stipend while learning as an apprentice but the man promised to be adding #10,000 to it making a total of #30,000 monthly. This person didn't know me from Adam but was touched by my brother's condition and he developed interest in helping him in his own little way. He asked me to inform my elder brother and get back to him.


I discussed everything to my brother verbally. Infact, i relate everything to him in my mother's tongue for ease of communication. I asked him if he has any interest in the offer and he said yes. He has interest. He's very much interested. He said he'd specialised in plumbing. I reached out to the man and we both finalise everything. He asked my brother when would he love to resume and he said month end. After the call, i asked him why month end and he said he doesn't have anything. He needs to get some few clothes, toiletries and some money for upkeep. I asked him where would he get money from less than 2 weeks to month end. He claimed if he can see any bus to work with. I told him you've been out of job going to a year, you didn't get any bus. Why do you think you'd get a bus within a short space of time? I asked him what if i rally round for him, is he willing to resume before the month end, he said yes with happy face. I borrowed #10,000 from a friend, i had #5,000 left with me, making a total of #15,000. I gave him 2 pairs of trousers and shirt i had. He bought a small school bag of #3,000 to put his clothes and he left in two days time. That was last week Wednesday. Oh! God, i was the happiest man on earth that very day.. I was so happy for him believing that he would become somebody from there. I called him to know if he has gotten there and how the work was. He said everything was fine.


I was surprised to see my brother at home on Friday, two days after he left. I asked him hope all is well? He said yes. I asked him why did he came back home so soon considering the cost of transportation to island. He was given a room he'd put up with. I expected him to stay there and focus on his job, whenever i have any money i would send to him. The man that helped him with the job called me later in the day. He narrated the gross misconduct of my brother. My brother left the job on Friday during working hours. The work is Monday to Saturday. Though Saturday is half day. He explained every details of the job to my brother before he resumed work. My brother was assigned to someone else to work with, not directly the man that helped him. The man only came to check up on him daily to know how he's fairing. The man was there when my brother took his bag, headed outside with the claim that he was going home. The man told him he can't go home now till after work, which is on Saturday. My brother didn't listen to the boss he was assigned with nor the man that helped him. He left right in their presence.


They do give daily report, and the man he was assigned with reported that he doesn't have anyone to work with, particularly on Saturday. The management asked him about my brother assigned to him and he said he has left on Friday. My brother was dismissed for his attitude. I pleaded to give him a second chance, but the man said it was beyond his power. The management has decided. I asked him to report there today and apologise for his gross misconduct. He went but apology wasn't accepted. If i was the man that helped my brother with this job or if i was among the management. I would do the same thing. I'd gladly lay him off without thinking twice.


My mother had been crying having heard the outcome of everything. I myself had cry my eyes out, all because of this my elder brother. I am fed up. The burden is too much. I might be tempted to harm him living under the same roof with him. I had been trying to console my mum but she wouldn't listen. Landlord came to harass her last week, the very day my elder brother left, because of house rent. I had 3 younger siblings to look after. Here comes my elder brother problem again. I am responsible for all of these with my meagre pay. I don't know what else to do for this guy. I don't think i can put up with him anymore. I am tired. Why is this life full of problems? I am losing my mind completely.

Mrfeel:
How about the environmental pollution it will cause in Lagos , is lagos not too small and crowded for such a big refinery?

I read:
Oil refineries emit large amounts of air pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. These pollutants can cause respiratory problems, including asthma, and increase the risk of heart disease and lung cancer etc i think lagos is too small and crowded for such a big refinery

it's an average result sir,as a skilled engineer u could get world class jobs with it, even in naija...no employer considers grade again....so far it's not pass , one could still get a job. Things have changed, it was in the days of our father that a 2:2 is seen as a terrible result.

mohziz1:
Help Mr A decide
70k work on the mainland ( berger) with roughly 30k on transport

150k work on the island with roughly 60k on transport

Which one would you go for?

Phantom233:
Since it's only one man that the government had given monopoly right, the next line of investment he should enter is electricity. It doesn't take more than 5yrs to fix this country if he have d right people in place.
