No single development in Ondo State after Adekunle Ajasin era. Every office holder with its cohorts is just busy stealing.

Once they build 50 units of 2x2, half-fence, 6-inch hollow blocks stalls beside a rocky hill, they feel they have done the best for their people.

At worst, I see why Ondo State should not have been like current Windhoek as of 2007.

All these are nonsense appointments. We need actions and exceptionally qualified people in critical positions.

We need serious overhauling of all our critical sectors.

Serious punishment for any Nigerian wey match line.

I have always said it, Tinubu won’t fix more than 10% of Nigeria’s problems, no matter how hard he tries or performs.

We need tougher leaders across board. Not only president.

TravelRe: Should I Stay and Complete My PhD Or Accept a 30 NZD Per Hour Job In New Zealand by MeineMutter:

I just got a job offer in New Zealand, I am to earn 30 New Zealand dollars per hour.

I have been pursuing a career in academics and I currently run a PhD program in a federal University. I am currently in the field gathering my data.

Should i move to New Zealand or should I turn down the job to complete my PhD? Or is there a way to continue and finish my PhD program via video conferencing since I just have to present my research work.
Please help me. Tell me what may work in this situation.
In case your purported ‘employment letter’ is reading anything CRICKET on it, my brother, flee. Na scammmm.

Even if it didn’t read any crickets, there is 99% chance that it is those letters from our boys in Southy in connivance with some Indian guys.

It is tough getting job from outside New Zealand.

New Zealand prefers hiring Malaysians and Indonesian and people from the Oceanian countries to hiring Nigerians.

Don’t pay anybody any money. Otherwise, so pe o ti lo.

Did you apply to any job? Were you interviewed? Were you told to appear at any sew Zealand mission abroad or its representatives for your biometrics and visa issuance?

Don’t believe in that cable visa someone sent to you.

The barcode generated on it may be for another person. Try and scan it, even if it reads your data, it is generated online.

There are free websites where they generate these types of barcodes with your data and then super-impose it on the cable visa being sent to you.
Please be warned.

To be on a safer side, take a copy of the visa to any embassy representing New Zealand in Nigeria.

You want to toll a road with people paying tax yet still want money from FG, after constructing the road through state fund.
Ogun didn’t ask for any refund.
Learn how to read and understand. There’s no where in Umahi’s address where he mentioned Ogun was/is asking for a refund.

Umahi was only making clarifications because of people like you who cannot understand easily.

There’s no way you can toll a road after completing it and still expect a refund from government.

Do you know that for a standard organization that is truly buoyant anyone earning #500k is below an Assistant Manager level? So who offers a car as part of benefit to someone below that level?

Then go for a visit and return to your work later in Nigeria.

You may be able to deduce whether you would like to live there or not.

Since it’s a 10-year multiple entry visa, you can plan your relocation well after several visits to Canada because you have would have had some first-hand Indians experiences.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: The Dilemma Of An Accountant by MeineMutter:
SatanKeepOff:
I am currently working as an accountant in an oil company based in Nigeria. I have been with this company for three years but initially started as a contract worker for two years before being promoted to the position of assistant supervisor last year.

In my department, we were three accountants sharing the same office, but we had no manager. Instead, we had an assistant manager, an account officer, and myself. With hard work and dedication, I managed to become the best among us. However, earlier this year, the management decided to restructure the department. As a result, they removed my superiors and employed someone at my level and a manager.

Now, my boss is learning the job from me, and the newly employed lady is also at the same level as I am. However, my boss claims that I cannot be promoted because I am not superior to the newly employed lady. The issue is that both my boss and the new lady are learning the job from me, and I believe that I deserve to be promoted since I am already good at the job.

I have talked to my boss several times about this issue, and he still refuses to promote me, stating that there is no superior among us(myself and the new lady). Please, what can I do in this situation?
Let me chip-in a few things, even though I doubt if it is a serious ‘oil’ company that you work for.

I guess you work in OIL-SERVICE firm, which is not a full-fledge one - a firm owned by a one-man business and structureless.

You didn’t say anything about your HR department, in your post, so there’s no need to ask anything about your past performance records.

Now to the main issue: if you have spent up to 5 years in that firm, and you are good as you have claimed and have professional qualification, with transferable skills, I do not expect you to still remain in that company.

I guess you were dead comfortable on the job and forming macho-man until some sets of people came to disrupt things for you.

You see people who study anything relating to management courses tend to surfer and stay longer in a company. They are the ones that usually receive long service awards on top nothing.

For you not to fall into the category of this people I mentioned above, you need to be planning your exit from now.

The lady that just joined, you didn’t know how she joined. She might have come through your new manager. Probably, your new manager pulled her along from his former company or probably somebody told your manager to help her into that place since he already joined.
The lady might even have come from another insider.

No matter how the lady could have come, someone’s interest is in her and the interest has to be protected.

It is normal for new manager to learn from junior colleagues on a new company because new manager didn’t know anything or the process of the new company from his home.

It is the old staff on ground that would show new manager the rope before a new manager would start applying his or her wealth of experiences to improve things in the new company.

While you work on your exit plan, do your work diligently. Still teach your new manager the work. Don’t stay longer than usual at work.

What you don’t understand is: accountants are part of those employees being affected by promotions. We are not like marketers or sales persons who are mobile with their careers. They are hot cakes.

When an accountant or any employee leaves a company, three things are likely going to happen:

1. Your salary is bound to increase.

2. You build an additional network of colleagues and friends which can be to your advantage, anytime, any day, if you know how to use it.

3. New work experience in a new organization which adds to your pool of experience.

In a not-too-good organization, I do not expect an accountant to spend more than 3 years, maximum. Those who stay longer could be because of ‘fear of the unknown’, or they are stealing in that company, or they are incompetent and less competitive.

In summary, do yourself a favor while you prepare for your exit.

- Don’t confide in any colleague about your plans.
- Skill-up and learn more about data analysis and learn at least on ERP that is common in Nigeria. There are hundreds of millions of free materials online on this.
- Start a professional qualification exams if you haven’t started.


As an accountant, you have to keep changing job. That would help you rise quickly on your career ladder.

So you mean Sunday Igboho do German test?
Don’t look down on the gentleman. Does he look someone who could not pass a language test?

I have seen old house wives of more than 55 years who had on secondary school education who wrote the exam at A1 level and passed. They needed it to go and meet their husbands.

Come to think of it. What of if Sunday Igboho didn’t go through family reunification? Don’t forget that he is an importer and has been traveling to Germany long ago.

For his wife to be based in Germany may not mean Sunday Igboho went through family reunification visa.
He could have gotten his own residency separately.

What of if he was the one that took his wife there? Or the two of them met as German resident?

Still flip the coin: will he tell you if he did? How are you sure it’s not his wife that wrote the exams?

The exam is not difficult at all at A1 level. Just try and pass around 60 out of 100 marks and you will get the certificate which will be valid for a year.
If you don’t use the certificate within a year, you can’t use it after a year again. You have to write another exam.

You may even choose to write your exam starting from any level above A1. Just make sure you pass.

Everybody going to Germany and Austria through family reunification has to write the exam.

This one you that are out here on frivolous probes, you would have done your findings on it.

Only private universities can grant you admission without legalization, firstly but you would still need to legalize your documents before applying for RP.

Legalization is for the Austrian government to see all the documents you have submitted as authentic and can be used against you in a court of law.

Request for your transcript to be sent to a relative company’s address in Nigeria or a residential address, as if the company needs it but tell the company/house owner ahead o.

Your uni or poly will send it once you have paid necessary fees. They don’t have to trace or query the reason why you are sending it to such address.

Why they don’t want to give it to you by hand is because they are afraid students tend to alter the transcripts before sending it out to institutions that need it for admission or evaluation purposes.

Once the company gets it, you will go there and collect it and the copy is yours forever.

The universities you are applying to in Austria don’t care about who the transcript is addressed (to).

All they want to see is your result (score) and how relevant the courses you have studied (in Nigeria or elsewhere) would be on the proposed course you want to study in Austria.

Nobody would accept a snapped copy of transcript from you at any ministry in Nigeria and at Austrian embassy in Abuja.

Mr one cent: while FH Uni of Applied Science, and other FH unis are great and well respected in Austria, I would advice you look for another uni since you are based outside Austria.

It is usually competitive. Their computer-based exam na d.ie.
You would also be interviewed after the computer-based exams.

So, try and have good internet connection that day and uninterrupted power supply because it will take more than 1hr. That’s if you still choose to apply to the school.

More so, a lot of applicants from, as far as Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia etc go to attend the computer-based exams.

I dont know about the €75 you mentioned here but after paying that €75, it is certain that you would still pay a minimum of €200 or €250 thereabout as tuition deposit pending when decision is made about the result of your test.

In case you are not admitted, you would wait until admission for that session is finalized by the university before you can get a refund from that €€€ deposit, which may not come back in full due to a token being deducted because of bank charges and it will be paid back into the account or card from which it was deducted.

Don't give up. Appeal. If you appeal, a judge will look through your documents and make a conclusion.

Have another that was rejected visitor visa, we appealed and she was given - that one has become a big girl there sef with valid papers.

Aside all said, nobody is vouching for OP that he will return, eg. his social club like Leo Club, Rotary Club, to pretend OP holds key position in the club), his landlord association ( to show that dem money dey with OP, 😁😁😁 as ak’ápò.

On a more serious note, OP should have signed a bond with his company that after the training, he would work for additional 5 years before he can leave the company. Then he will attach a copy of the bond to his application. It’s like a sign-on fee companies use these days.

He can show property documents too or proofs that he just got married or he just had babies. Or proof that he is a prince and heirs to his ancestral thrones.

He should sha show that he has home ties.

Not having travel history to greater countries in Europe is already a red flag for the visa officer. A travel to Turkey, at least in the past, would have helped.
