Jobs/VacanciesRe: Multiple Job Vacancies At Action Against Hunger (ngo-nigeria) by Mille: 10:39am On Aug 28, 2018
Location is surely Northern Nigeria, most likely Borno or Yobe.

I'll rather starve to death than accept a job offer anywhere in Northern Nigeria (Apart from Abuja) where you are surrounded by uneducated morons and religious fanatics who cannot eschew from violence.

I remember the 4 harrowing days I spent in Nasarawa. It felt like being right in the heart or Sambisa forest.

Well most times the answer I give to people on such issues is this, would you do the same thing if the tables were turned? You had a flight to board and you missed it cuz he forgot to wake you up? How would you react to it?
What nonsense are you saying? Did you even bother to read the post before typing out this garbage.


@ Poster Ellekonrad , I am a bit confused here. I'll assume you are German since your location says Germany. I live in Germany also and I have never known German women to be so docile unless they are mud******.

Anyway, to your post. There is nothing cultural in everything you wrote there. And honestly, these are precedents for disaster.

My ex once deliberately watched me sleep enough to miss my flight to Dortmund, and I don't remember having to slap or discipline her like your man said it is culturally done.

Where did you read that this stuff is normal?

Thanks! There was no help from his people, friends, none, the girl helped him used to sen him Money ,bought things for just for him to be happy now his calling the girl Prostitute, she is empty, no certificate, that his going for another girl, that the girl can't get the job from him. That he will pay the girl off.
Well, I feel you are the girl.

Anyway, your story is half complete. A man cannot just wake up and start calling his woman a prostitute without reason. Also, for him to even consider paying you off while you're considering withdrawing his appointment shows you've been using the job gotten for him as a blackmail tool.

Oh, and BTW, a Federal appointment is not the same as a private appointment. This means the man who helped him get the job cannot withdraw his appointment.

Nairaland GeneralRe: Urgent!!! Pls Can A Nigeria Get A Job In Kenya by Mille: 10:12pm On Jul 27, 2018
Focusenlarger:
Good evening, I am in a dilemma. I would be so grateful if you all can help me. Can a Nigerian without no certificate work in Kenya. The person understands their language. the person needs a job as he was duped. Something he can do to raise money and come back to naija. Pls I will be waiting for your response ...
No.

A Nigerian is not allowed to work in Kenya without a work permit. You cannot get a work permit without a sponsorship which requires you to have a job. Your employer will be the one to sponsor you and it is almost impossible without a degree or a certificate.

If you need funds to travel back home, contact the Red Cross, the Kenya Ministry of Interior, the Nigerian embassy, UNHCR etc. I'm sure any of these organizations will help repatriate you.

Nobody scammed them. They came here with the intention of settling down or moving to another EU country and use the fan ID as an opportunity.

They have seen its not easy and survival is hard. Nigerians are fond of lying about why they are stranded in a foreign country.

CareerRe: What Is The Possibility Of Securing A Job In Germany After Msc? by Mille: 3:19pm On Jul 09, 2018
chyy5:
I am considering travelling to Germany for msc but on the other hands I Dont just want to finish msc there and come back to Nigeria. I have friends with foreign msc yet no job.
Is there any possibility of landing a job in Germany after msc which I think can facilitate my visa extension.
Your suggestions will help my decisions.
To be honest with you, it depends on what you call a job. To some Nigerians in Germany, a job could mean doing some cleaning jobs, moving jobs, logistics jobs or even restaurant jobs at places like McDonalds. But to others like me, a job after study means a professional job.

The situation is almost the same as in Nigeria. And it's even much more harder considering that you're Black (I'm sure you know there are racial discrimination in the European job markets) and the fact that you may not yet be proficient in German. And not only will you be competing against Germans and other foreign students in Germany, you will also be competing against other EU citizens who most likely are proficient in English, German and another European language.

There are many Nigerians here who have been forced by the situation to re-enrol in school for another Masters or even a PhD, those who have had to marry to legalise their stay due to the expiry of their 18 months after study permit, and there are also those who have been lucky enough to get a job immediately after graduating.

So in essence, it's difficult but not impossible.
PoliticsRe: NYSC: Kemi Adeosun Not Legally Required To Participate by Mille: 6:49pm On Jul 07, 2018
GavelSlam:
To be fair, it's not compulsory.

You can come home and set up a business and nobody would bother you.

Heck you can come home and join your father's business and nobody would bother you either.

Indeed you can come home and join any corporation as long as it is privately owned and no one would bother you.

It only become a problem when a privately owned organisation requests for it as part of their patriotic act that it become a problem to you.

If you forge it then you are in trouble.

For government agencies, it is compulsory.

That's the problem.

I'm not coming home to start a business and my father does not have a business of his own.

I work with an NGO, and contemplating requesting a transfer back home. That's why I am asking because I don't want to shoot myself in the shoe.

TRUTHTOPOWER:
It is mandatory for graduates of universities and polytechnics under the age of 30. Employment or no employment.

Discharge Certificate or Exemption certificate is just a condition for employment.
Thank you for the answer.

So what advice would you have for someone who already works for an international NGO, has not done the NYSC and wants to be transferred to Nigeria.

Called up back then, posted to Northern Nigeria and refused to go for security reasons as an outspoken atheist.
PoliticsRe: NYSC: Kemi Adeosun Not Legally Required To Participate by Mille: 1:04pm On Jul 07, 2018
I have a question of my own.

Is NYSC mandatory for a foreign graduate who is on an "INTERNATIONAL CONTRACT" in an NGO in Nigeria?

Is it also mandatory for a similar person, but with a local contract in an NGO.

I'm asking because according to premiumtimes, NYSC is mandatory for employment in public and private sectors in Nigeria and an NGO does not conform to any of both categories.

I would appreciate an honest reply.

TravelRe: London Vs Ikoyi/vi/asokoro/maitama/Lekki by Mille:
justwise:
[/b]

You started this thread for all wrong reasons, this has nothing to do with white superiority conditioning/inferiority.

The recent killing and mop attack in London is high for a fact but its not usually like that.

You also have to remember that all these crimes are committed by young blacks men.

You can't compare recent crime rate in London to what happens in many cities in Nigeria
He is not comparing London to "many cities in Nigeria". I believe he specifically mentioned 5 places in Nigeria and a parameter, the crime rate (security) of which he is 100% correct.

The killings and Moped attacks may not be "usually like that" but it still shows London is less safe than Ikoyi or Victoria Island. I could also argue based on your defense that Maiduguri is a safe city since terror attacks were also "usually not like that" and the killings are high for a fact.

I haven't lived in Maitama while I have only been to Asokoro thrice. But I schooled in VI, Worked at Ikoyi and yes, Lekki is my hometown (Yes, hometown. Don't be surprised smiley ). So I can speak for these places.

I live in Germany and I have been to London a couple of times, and I can boldly say that in terms of Security (crime), these 3 areas are much better than London, Paris and Frankfurt.

But do I have a potbelly? Hell NO. That's one of my greatest fears in life smiley

Do I consider a protruding stomach on a non-pregnant woman repulsive, gross, disgusting, obnoxious and appalling? Unfortunately, YES.

I can understand a post-baby stomach but I find it distasteful for a single lady. Are they in competition with Pregnant women?

I'm not asking women to be perfect. I am only asking them not to have a protruding stomach.

Nowadays, it's even hard to differentiate between a normal woman and a pregnant woman when almost all of them walk around with a flabby stomach.

And No, I don't have a knock knee.

Mindfulness:
And these people tell you openly that they want a divorce to get rich? Come on!



Thought so.



Fair enough, isn't it? So what's your problem again?



How much money do you get on maternity leave and for how long?
What if you have a toddler? Is a 2-year-old supposed to be in daycare for 8-10 hours every day?
School? How long can a child stay in school in Germany every day?

Have you got kids in your household? Let us say the mother is a nurse and has to start work at 6pm, which means that she has to leave at 5:30? Where will the kids go if school/ nursery starts at 8/9 (?)? What if her shift begins in the afternoon when the child returns? What if she has a night shift?

And by the way, if these men are so disadvantaged, I suggest more of them stay at home to look after the children and get rich by sending the woman to work. grin
I think you are misunderstanding me. Child support is different from spousal support or divorce settlement.

The fees above are for the fortunate ones who do not have a legalized relationship/marriage.

That's for them to bother with. Every person for their own.

I learned most of my family values from my parents and one thing I know I learned from them is to do some proper planning on how to run your daily life before you think of adding someone else to the equation.

Besides, I'm even against taking shift jobs when you have a family to cater for, whether you are a man or a woman. It's safe to say the nurses conducting the study are safe from me as I won't be having anything to do with nurses. smiley

Maybe I should ask my Mama how she raised 3 boys without ever hiring a maid or a nanny while still holding a fulltime job she never retired from smiley

Lol. I think a lot of men like me prefer the ones who 'embezzles' the family fund but still go ahead to get richer by holding down a job.

Mindfulness:
Maybe you should reconsider your circle of friends.



So how much is it?




What you think is not what is necessarily the case. Secularization plays a major part, I would argue.



Agreed.



Of course, I do. We are talking about developed nations here. There is no running away from your responsibility. The children have a mother and a father. Rightly so.



How do you want a woman with two little kids work full time?
Whether you are confused or not, the statistics are clear and contradict what you men here on NL say BIGLY.
- Involved with people doesn't mean I'm friends with them. There are a lot of possible scenarios where you can be involved with even the people you don't like.

- There are no fixed amount as it depends on a number of factors such as child's age, your salary, number of children etc. as outlined in the DÜSSELDORFER table.

And Yes, irrespective of the number of children the man has, a portion of his salary is reserved for the man to sustain himself and the remaining fund will have to be distributed among the remaining children.

- I believe there are schools/kindergarten/preschools/ college for children as well as PAID Maternity leave.
FamilyRe: Why Nigerian Husbands Kill Wives In US –investigation by Mille: 5:30pm On Jun 11, 2018
Mindfulness:
1. You have seen these women purposefully quitting their marriage? Like in they told you?
2. Men pay for their ex-wives or they pay for their children? Last time I checked, kids are quite expensive.
3. Have you got any numbers of how many people get married and how many don't? I know many people do not get married but majority of couples with children still do and if they don't they register to enjoy similar status to married folks.
4. Could it be that people no longer get married because it is a highly secular nation? And could the decline in marriages have anything got to do with the drop outs from church and the fact that people no longer think it is a sin to live together unmarried?
5. Even if you don't get married, you will still have to pay for your children.

Last but not least, how comes single mothers are often the poorest part of the population when men pay so much?
1. Yes, I have seen because I have been involved in one way or another with some of them.


2. They pay both if married. In Germany, child support isn't that expensive for the average man. So a lot of men wouldn't mind paying that. That's why they only cohabitate to get out from becoming homeless while still paying alimony incase of separation.

3. No. You can check online for that. From the knowledge/conversations with Germans here, colleagues, neighbours and even the football pitch, I can safely say that a very large majority are only cohabiting even with children.

4. No. I don't think so. I believe it's majorly due to the issue above.

5. Don't get me wrong. I'm not against men paying for their children. I'm against leaving a man penniless and homeless because of a thing called marriage.

I'm sure you know a PRENUP does not mean a man is safe from paying child support. It is there to ensure the stability of a man incase of future events.

- Lastly, they are the poorest of the population? I'm confused by this statistics. Maybe it's just down to laziness. Is there any discrimination in the job market against single mothers or does being a single mother exempt you from getting a job like any normal woman would do?
