Dr007: There 're a million and one things one can do while waiting for PSC/NPF. Without being economical with the truth, anybody who claims the silence from PSC is frustrating or stagnating is plain lazy. For Christ's sake we all claim to be ICT professionals. A true ICT professional is never idle: there will always be projects to wrap-up, web applications to debug, semantic programming problems to solve. Except you 're an unknowledgeable ICT professional. So keep yourself busy, if you ain't busy, trust me I have job to keep you busy for the next 8 months.

Bros sorry o o, I am not talking about all those yeye programming projects o . . . neither am I putting up with mediocrity and stereotyping . . . .

I am not talking about just being busy but doing something that puts not just water but wine on your table . . . that makes you to feed yourself and others well.

If you have something really serious doing you for the next 8 months that means you are lucky but that should be more serious than ICT NPF Training anyway . . .

Humbly speaking, the reality is that those guys that are really busy don't even have time to apply for jobs or attending interviews . . . . not even this type of job, may God have mercy.

A report by former Nigerian Minister of education has it that, over 90% of Nigerian graduates since year 2000 is half baked and unemployable . . . being products of a failing and inconsistent system.

God will help us . . . and make way for us.

Just lets realise that frustration is inevitable when the system not friendly . . . but its also an opportunity in disguise

All is well

isralkhalid: ...hmmm, whether being fair or not, two things may happen in January thus: either we resume at the camp or we don't. If we resume..fine! Together we shall do our best for the nation in policing but If we don't resume...fine! We only need to ensure our life goes on since we didn't go to schools to become police officers... I'm not pessimistic about January stuff but in life, theories of success and failure move together and we are in the best position to separate failure from success!!

I'll be happy to meet people like you real life . . . you've been candid

efualwealth: You have never hit the nail on the head more than you have right now.

Its funny that at this point we still do not know where we are going to as regards our training and its even more disturbing knowing that other military and paramilitary formations that started their enlistment exercise few months ago are already making headway with their training plans.
We just need to be sure of the plans they have for us, there should be communication.
I like to plead with every one here that are close to the stake holders to speak out on our behalf.

Yes bros, if its next year January, April, July or year 2015 or indefinite, just let them say something . . . .

Those people among us that are finding things easier are those either;
self employed or
being fed at home by family or friend

For some of us this delay or stagnation we'll call it is gradually turning to another thing instead of blessing . . .

I have 100% assurance that we shall be contacted on or before 30th December, 2013 if all is truly well . . . if not everyone should make moves to save his life from this unprecedented torture of our being . . . isn't fair

isralkhalid: Lolzz...mj, no source would tell you that you should forget about the whole stuff...what they all say is January (without a specific date). I dunno maybe....but my candid advice is that if nothing shows up in January then me as a person will move on with something else 'cos I wonder...when you have 35 yrs to stay in service and you have spent about 1.5yrs at home redundant...who knows?

Yes, my dear brother.

We should not allow our lives to be played pranks with . . .

Good Morning Sirs,

How was your XMAS celebrations?

Pls, who knows the next date fixed for Batch B's POP at Wudil, Kano?

About our training, I have a feeling that the process is out of control now . . .

Every Parastatal that are training personel, even the Nigerian Army have notified 2 weeks to 5th of January, 2014.

So, two things are involve, is either we are given just few days notification or we are doomed in the new year, God forbid . . .

The Army guys are already planning now towards next year . . . their recruitment started just in March 2013 now they are there . . .
whats our case, we started in July 2012 now we are no where yet . . .

We need to know our fate, some of us had dropped out of our academic pursuits because of this, some are already stranded with their life plan . . .

Patience is the key, however, foolishness is synonymous to patience without definition . . .
haabaa, PSC said later since April 2013 just to provide information details about our training . . .

I want some of us that know the stakeholders at the top contact them and lets know our bearing with specific details . . .

If update doesnot come on or before 30th December, 2013.

@Cssjaga, whats up?
@Kelvin, whats up?
@Delex, whats up?

I think is not ideal to be planning for next year in January . . . we should have a defined focus by now . . .

@all, please lets help ourselves out . . .

Happy New Year 2014 in advance.

GREAT ICT OFFICERS . . .

. . . MERRY XMAS

ALL IS WELL

iPassEmAll: @all, mj has finally freak out, spoke grammar that has no origin, he/she is now a Gud gal/guy gone bad, though kelvin have saved the situation, pple like mj by this behaviour would disillusionize everyone here

If I were you, I will google it out . . . because you should have been crying by now if you understanding the "origin" . . .


My Dear Brother, please don't pull my legs . . .

I said that because of the commanding tone you used . . . simple

@ . . .
I am sorry anyway

iPassEmAll: I tot u will commence another countdown, u have really taken correction. No counting henceforth, is that clear?

Caraculo! don't you ever talk to me like that again please . . . thank you

Everytin don skata now!
Just waiting for divine intervention . . .

Good morning Sirs . . .

Lets be very calm now,

Its like our Oga kelvin is confused now . . . lets leave him alone, you all know that he is a busytype, he may not have time for the forum again as we think . . .

@Delex, whats up?

Pls, I encourage us to always read newspapers, punch and dailytrust . . .

Did any of us made the final list of the Army, and Airforce ?
. . . All of them are resuming for training on the 5th January, 2014.

Lets keep our finger cross . . .

Today is another GOOD DAY . . .

Lets be expecting goodness

All is Well

Eagle85: My Bro, hopes and expectations are too high for dis. How can there not b an update 2day if 5th Jan is still valid for RESUMPTION.

Evn if there is no update on PSC site but at least d texts nd emails should arrive 2day considering d 2 weeks preparation period (especially dis festive season).

If I understand u properly (to mean no update, no text, no email), den dis is so demoralizing...... It's not a way 4ward.

POLICE........................ Hmmmmm...........................

Today has not ended, not even at midday . . .

All is well

FINAL LIST IS OUT ON TODAY'S PUNCH NEWSPAPER . . .

Nigerian Army DSSC And SCC 2013 Recruitment . . .

C H E E R S

kelvin2yk: no any update today as speculated by MJ but Jan 5 is still valid as at this morning........gud a.m fellas

Bros, I have a feeling that the postponement of Batch B's POP is not unconnected with our resumption . . .

They have to be pushed out before we are pulled in . . .
Even, our resumption will influence the date for advertisement for the upcoming general duty recruitment . . .
You will see!

Delex, am I correct?

Cssjaga, am I inline?

@Great ICT Officers,
are we ready to go?

All is well . . .

SeunTayoz: Dismiss ke? There is a proverb that says " A child who boasts that he will eat d head of a bird when he grows up might not live that long". U've not even been trained, u re looking for who to oppress! Na wah o! And na u dey always complain of our leaders! From experience I discovered that u don't maltreat ur subordinates cox d person @ d lowest ebb in an organisation today might be a force to reckon with later. A former governor of Kogi State was a gateman @ first Bank several years back! Just a word of advice. I pray that we will not misbehave IN JESUS NAME.

This is a mental pabulum

Though, we have already been physically, medically, academically and professionally tested and our original credentials had been screened and recorded in our files with PSC . . .

But;

1. Its possible for us to be asked to come with very recent or current Doctor's Medical Report and ECG Report . . .

2. Portable and Mobile PCs, stationeries.

3. White bed spread, pillow case, vest, short, canvas etc

4. Cups, Plates, cutleries, Food flasks, warmer etc

5. Few cloths for outings

6. Toileteries, Clippers, Cutlasses, Brooms etc

7. Surviving strategies e.g pocket money, food stuffs or provisions.


I just thought of these. . . but you can add your list.

E.g . . . . . G A M E S

All is Well . . .

Delex 012: Great ICT officers, let us calm down. Our list is already in PCIT Abeokuta for training we are to resume on 5th of January. I pray there should be no postponement. God is on our side. It is well with us.

I readily concur . . .

Delex and Kelvin . . . weldone the dons

@All
We are done!

N.B
I want to say something after longtime of observation . . .that

Delex, you are very humble . . .

Kelvin, you are very diligent . . .

. . . 23rd December, 2013

Ofemi Jude: If una like, make una shift am go next december, our destiny will neva pass us by. Take ur mind away from dis tin so dt u can also create plan B 4 ur self. Morning dew fellas.........

Plan A or Plan B or whatever Plan it is its a personal decision . . .

With respect to this ICT NPF Job, I think we are no more gambling . . . the gambling stage ended after the final list was released . . .
People that are gambling are they that are waiting for supplement diet which is 50, 50 chance and luck . . .

The point am saying is that PSC has only used timing to torture our psychie, which we can use indulgence to say that its still part of training . . .

But whichever way you see it, we all know that life itself is a risk . . .

If you like, you can put all your eggs in one basket, or share the eggs into many baskets. This has not change the size and quantity of your eggs . . .

New year is already knocking on our door and I know every of our Plans, A to Z are depending on this training . . .

Even as "simple" as applying for a Postgraduate Program is, not even issues of life like marriage . . . everything is affected.

So, you see now . . .
that we are already in a very tight corner its only God that can save us.

We can't eat our cake and still have it . . .

. . . It is well.

Two updates just within Two days . . .
So, its that easy . . .

Two updates in just Two days . . .
So, its that important . . .

Bros, there is nothing to worry about . . .

Today it is

2013 - 12 - 19 PSC PROMOTES TWO AIGs TO THE RANK OF DIG

Ours will be

2013 - 12 - 23 UPDATES ON TRAINING OF ICT PROFESSIONALS IN NPF

God has answered our prayers since April . . .

Cheers


@ Ipassemal,

Chei, bro, no be lie, plenty responsibilities don line up . . .

But point of correction, the only way to achieve our dreams is by divine intervention not PSC/NPF connection . . .

God can use anything, anybody . . .
Infact, an idea may entered your head before our call up an you will see this PSC offer as a pooh pooh . . .


There is God in heaven, we shall never have any reason to regret for taking up this job in Jesus name . . .

C h e e r s

kelvin2yk: You are talking about 2006 to 2012.....the current commandant was in abuja last three days, he was interviewed by the two ogas and said the school can comfortably accommodate 480 trainees or participants and we are not upto 320 with the supplementary list. 2012 till date, both G and E Departments have done many things in the school even now they will still supply some facilities there before xmas.we should just stop raising pple BP here, I wont say what I dont know, Gud day all

Well, its some how that we cannot even access latest information from an institution thats saddled with responsibity to make personnel ICT compliant . . . so, no update on that site since 2012. Na wa o o !

Well, I am tempted to concur . . .

Kelvin, its well with us . . .

Anyway, I know the light is coming.

About PCIT, Abeokuta as at 2012 update . . .

If the above is true, then we should be expecting 4 batches or else it may not be easy as we think

Good morning Sirs,

We should not be straight - jacketed about any issue whether rumour, grapevine or propaganda . . .

We all know that batching is a common thing happening in training of security personnels . . .

I've read an article on PCIT, Abeokuta before cha, stating that the accomodation capacity is an average of 200 . . . that might have change cha, may be + or - . . .
Ref.
www.pcitabeokuta.gnbo.com.ng/

My advocacy is not for the efficacy of fallacy . . .but we shouldn't overrate or underrate any personalty here . . . at the end when light comes we shall all be glad.

Lets just pray that whichever way will favour us . . .

Today is a HAPPY DAY . . .

Cheers

One man's food is another's poison!

19th has gone, 20th is coming . . .
May God continue to be with us . . .

Delex 012: @mj, I speak when there is any post that contradict our training. Kelvin is in line. It is well with us.

Bros, I know that you are the chairman of the parliament . . . So. no cause for alarm at all . . .

I am just having a feeling that we need to know how plans are going . . .

The NAF faced the selection board in mid November and final list was released in mid December and they are in 2 batches . . . to resume next year in specific months . . .

So, this our training is becoming unnecessarily . . .

kelvin2yk: They dont have anything to do with us, they are not the one who is delaying us...everything is settled now

If Cssjaga speaks, I'ld rather be avid . . .

If Delex speaks, I'ld rather be careful . . .

If Kelvin speaks, I'ld rather be quiet . . .

All is well . . .
