lol u guys are funny... I typed this in wee hours

Okay, this is daytime; wanna clarify you post?

What else do you expect from JEWS NEWS

seunmsg:
Looool at republic reporters. They should just call it wailing wailers reporters. Desperate tanoids trying to discredit every move of the APC government. The said minister better start preparing her defence. No amount of propaganda from wailing republic reporters will save her from prosecution.

As in!!! Republic Reporters. Very funny - so much for the consonance.

The photo was sent to Metronaija and it is alleged that the young man on suit is an unemployed graduate .

cc: lalasticlala ishilove

It is ALLEGED. Then the allegation, without confirmation becomes NEWS; a supposedly trusted and verifiable information. Define your niche - soft sell e-mag

That he dresses formally does not provide enough evidence that he's a graduate abi him hang im certificate for neck join? Mschewww. Jankara gist

That is not Oshiomole. What is wrong with you people!!!

Before the last few posts, this was going to be my comment:

How can we be expected to be commenting with these pictures without details, just a picture

After these posts, I can only say that you guys out there should corroborate this or come out with more details. Perhaps, this is a QC issue for the particular batch or something but if you want to make good use of social media, supply the world with information and not just picture. Different data coming from different people will put up a case but just giving us a picture with 'particles' is a No-No for me.

Why does this topic/question keep getting re-tested

I just read how lax our security is at those camps. It's not about givng corps members martial arts training as NYSC claimed some years back but basic intelligence gathering.

If a 'buns seller' could sell his way out via a dummy move, what stops a 'gun buyer' from buying his way into these camps. Naijeriya !!!

Cray this is!

Strange one can be as regular as one was in the past.

Mrkelv:
Oga. I confirmed this myself. I visited their office

This is a very sensitive issue. There is no way I would have published without first confirming.

Okay, thank you for the clarification. These days, one needs to vet stories before fuelling rumor mills.

I am surprised this could grace the front page without any credible source but a BLOG!!!

The OP said "The story was covered by one of Nigeria’s top newspapers" without naming the newspapers. Only Pulse Nigeria (also referencing NL) said it was Vanguard. I am yet to see this on Vanguard's website or Emeka's (the reporter) posts. To douse this, the OP should provide a snapshot of the full page where this appears, the page and the date.

If untrue, hope you are aware Injoo's manufacturers can take this up against you for bad publicity.


Thank You!

Where's the chaos

It appears bloggers are suffering from hyperbolic abuse in order to generate traffic to their blogs.

Annoying!!!

And the interviewer allowed you this much time to give this speech
Rule 1 Mr. Leo, don't lose your audience!

princeofpeace22:

Oh really!

Okay, this is what you get from OAGF's website:

Some of us have houses but we did not build them

In Just 30 days

Nigerians just like 'sparking off' tribal lyrics; they forget that the FG is made up of people from their own tribes too.

Ibkaye

I can 'hear' the interviewers saying "thank you for giving us the evidence(s)". Hehehe

Oh my; who takes the credit NIGERIA!

After all, what did the two men aspire to become Presidents for To make Nigeria worse?

Maximus85:
My Muslim brothers, are women now allowed to sit with men in the mosque? What is sister Ranti doing sitting with the men?

Same thing I observed there. Politicians just make the best use of religion for their parochial purposes. Muslim men do not mix with women in the mosques but these guys know what they want; religion is a tool used to whip sentiments and influence people's thoughts.

If not curtailed, they would infiltrate religion and cause more divisions; before you say Jack, they could even go ahead to invite a female governor to lead prayers all in the name of 'kari aye'!!! Something of this nature has occurred in another SW state. smh

What I see here is a political gathering in the name of religious obligation!

Hahahaha OMG. On a 2nd look, I saw the words "wise" and "fool" on the image. Lollll ^^^^

I think the OP wanted to see FULLSCAP or the sort but just playing with words, there's no fool's cap here


From Wiki,

Foolscap may refer to:
Foolscap folio, a paper size of 8½ × 13½ inches (216 × 343 mm)
A paper size of 17 × 13½ inches (432 × 343 mm)


We learn continuously Our foolish mistakes bring out the wisdom in us!

Without the degree, the worker may have very terrible experiences to learn from (which could cause the company huge losses)

Without the experience, the worker simply does not know how to practicalize his/her theories; s/he can cause disastrous experiences via practical zing the knowledge.

Both are a wonderful combination!

I remember BRF's moves in urging volunteers in fighting this. In this country, we're simply good at killing ourselves via corruption. All the same, I am hoping this government (now that APC has taken control) looks into this. It's just so sad to see man's inhumanity to man as a result of this disease called corruption. We have this annoying way of making the best 'bad' out of a good cause.

This ought to be in the Health Section but it also involves 'political corruption'.

Read this editorial on Ships and Ports:

The Nigerians that answered the Federal Government’s call for volunteers to go fight the dreaded Ebola scourge that was ravaging Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone some months ago initially felt they were on a mission of honour, which would save lives and bring glory to our country, but now they are not so sure.

The volunteers, who have just recently returned from their mission have a litany of sad tales to tell that all border on corruption. Theirs is a story of fraudulent practices by the health officials that were in charge of the mission, stories that besmirch the face of this great nation, and the government must punish some people for the disgraceful show of corruption their complaints reveal.

For the 198 volunteers who left the country for Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, the trouble started even before they departed for the brother countries. Some volunteers who had been shortlisted by the Federal Ministry of Health arrived Lagos, the point of departure, only to realise that their names had been replaced by corrupt health officials, who realizing that the volunteers would be given compensatory remuneration fraudulently enlisted non-medical personnel alongside trained medics, against the directive of the African Union (AU) which was coordinating the whole programme.

UjuNnaji, a nurse who was later deployed to Liberia described her own personal experience thus; “I had seen my name back in Abuja that I was shortlisted, but I was shocked when I got to Lagos that my name and those of several others were already missing. Our names had been replaced with others.”

The African Union officials in charge of the overall programme discovered to their consternation that the Nigerian team had more staff doing data entry than actual medical work. The most basic thing the Nigerian Ministry of Health should have done was to make sure that most of the volunteers were certified professional health workers who would go into the field to save lives and not stay back in camp doing little or nothing. Many more Ebola deaths would have been prevented.

In the case of payments, corruption reared its repugnant head. Each volunteer was to receive $1,000 as Basic Travel Allowance paid by the AU. But recruiters of the Nigerian team denied such provision had been made, a claim countered by AU officials. It will be recalled that the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Health had been widely quoted in the media as telling the volunteers the following before they travelled out, “The Nigerian government and African Union have guaranteed that all volunteers will be paid their full allowances in dollars.”

Meanwhile, contingents from other countries had been paid the same amount before travelling.

In the area of accommodation, the story was no different as Nigerian volunteers in Portnoo, Sierra Leone, were not given accommodation even though their monies were being deducted for it.

The Nigerian volunteers also say they were not paid their hazard and hardship allowance that was paid volunteers from other countries, and when they complained about it they were threatened with deportation.

Since the volunteers returned to Nigeria, they have been shabbily treated as regards payment of several outstanding monies they are owed, leading some to regret volunteering and vowing never to ‘make the mistake’ of volunteering for Nigeria again in their lives. This is not good.

The Federal Government must probe those that organised the scandal-riddled health mission and punish all guilty parties as a way of discouraging public officials from transforming future international emergencies like this into disgraceful shows of corruption.

In an exclusive what Chat, talk, phone call, e-mail or what? I noticed how that part was conveniently avoided on the website.

Nonetheless, this is bad PR for potential candidates of the company.
