RomanceRe: Am Just 17, And She Said I Inpregnanted Her. by Mustay(m): 10:34am On Nov 05, 2014
01emek:
And is it possible for a girl who is just 16 to get pregnant?

I told her to stop disturbing me and should go and look for the father of her baby and am not responsible, but she kept on saying that it is me that inpregnanted her. I don't think she knows what she is saying, she's just 16 for pete's sake!!
Conceiving is not a function of age but puberty. It's also not a function of frequency as some can try a thousand times whilst others try once. Only a mother knows the father of her children. The number of months of her pregnancy is an indication. Anyway, life is all about Karma - be ready to face the consequences of your action(s).
PoliticsRe: MOPOL Makes A Daring Entry Into Mubi. by Mustay(m): 10:23am On Nov 05, 2014
jtchukwu:
The entry of this MOPOLs into Mubi is seen as a slap to the military, the views of people now in town is that MOPOL should now take over the operation of chasing away this terrorist.
There's no slapping anywhere - the police is charged with the internal security of the nation. Had they done their job well, this mess wouldn't have been as big as it is right now.

PoliticsRe: T A Orji's Election Campaign Poster (Picture) by Mustay(m):
I was tempted to write that our politicians make a mockery of governance (which is quite true anyway) but in giving the 'defendant' the benefit of doubt, sometimes, the individual involved may not be aware of this. It is usually 'supporters', sycophants et al that do this. All the same, if we have leaders with character, their 'supporters' would know the kind of stunts to pull (or not). Just look at the attempt to draw people's religious sentiment sad

If you go to Umuahia today, you would see the streets 'decorated' with different posters of Orji; personally, I find it disgusting. When you have a state where the streets have so much billboards and posters about a 'performing governor' for doing his/her constitutional duty, then you know where the empty barrels are. If he does not want such, he can issue a warning to people to desist from doing things like this on his behalf just as BRF warned some time ago here: http://enownow.com/news/story.php?sno=3500




With our governors swapping seats with senators, we would just keep on recycling same of the same. We are still complaining of having those who were in government decades ago 'serving' us till date; soon, we would have all of them passing the baton around. When you have Dariye, Akume, Yerima and other governors representing a subset (senatorial zone) for a set(state) which they formerly governed, then you'd know there's something wrong with our people!!

Lol, it affects our spending power - we go hustle for fresh notes.

Seriously, I think this should have come earlier than this. With just a month to go in 2014, it seems kinda late. Seems the SLS -ish contributed to the delay. Who knows, we would have had a #5,000 commemorative note instead cheesy

PoliticsRe: Boko Haram Renames Captured Adamawa Town, Mubi, “madinatul Islam” by Mustay(m): 6:14am On Nov 05, 2014
noblezone:
I am only saying that when some Nigerian soldiers that should fight BH are instead giving them support, then it is a very complex situation.


Of course members of Boko Haram are radical Islamists from Northern Nigeria.
Good!- I agree with you here; you've admitted some complicity coming from our army. There's been a mix of politicking and this can not help the army.

Nevertheless, I still insist this government isn't serious. That has led to different speculations instead of facts flying around such as the members of BH being in the FG, Chad president/Sheriff sponsoring the fights, ACN behind this, Shekau dying every season etc. If we had a serious government, these guys won't seem to be a mystery, they would simply be identified and flushed out!
PoliticsRe: Boko Haram Renames Captured Adamawa Town, Mubi, “madinatul Islam” by Mustay(m):
^^^
By this statement, you're admitting that the BH are Nigerians. Using the same logic, some Nigerians want Nigerians killed and we want the government to look away. Your statement is as good as saying government should just siddon look since Nigerians have decided to voluntarily reduce the continent's population.

If Americans decide to start bombing America, there is something Obama will do; that's to uphold the rule of law and defend the territorial integrity of the nation. You can't let wrong continue to go on and then turn a blind eye; that's cowardice!
PoliticsRe: Boko Haram Renames Captured Adamawa Town, Mubi, “madinatul Islam” by Mustay(m): 6:39pm On Nov 04, 2014
The basic duty of any government (sovereign one for that matter) is the protection of lives and properties of its citizens - the handwriting is clear.

We are what we eat - don't eat your future in the next elections! If we don't hold those we supposedly elected into account, we'll collectively account for the consequences. One day, one day sha, we'll know those masquerading themselves in the name of a cause and in the name of support. Falsehood is not as elastic as the truth.

HealthRe: Appalling Condition Of The OOUTH Shagamu. by Mustay(m): 10:40am On Nov 03, 2014
I think some of y'all should take it easy on the OP; he's not a reporter or a journalist. Who knows, as at the time of visit, capturing buildings etc was the least on his mind. Whilst I agree that visuals help, before the advent of social media etc, didn't people still write letters of complaintshuh Even today, some still use phone-in programmes to lodge their complaints. The most important thing is for the story to be true, verifiable and get to the authorities concerned. Now that the OP has related his experience, it's up to concerned civil societies and media outfits (who look for stories to report) to report the situation as professionals.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: 10 Things You Should Never Include In Your Résumé by Mustay(m): 9:33am On Oct 25, 2014
styless:
An objective

Résumé objectives never help and often hurt. Not only do they feel antiquated, but they’re all about what you want, rather than what this stage of the hiring process is all about — what the employer wants. Your résumé should be about showing your experience, skills and accomplishments. If you want to talk about how this particular position is the perfect next step in your career, use the cover letter for that.
Your objective defines your persona and states what you wanna make of your career. I believe the cover letter can address the employer's part like you said. Moreover, it's YOUR résumé, not their mission statement(s).







Your photo

Unless you’re applying for a job as a model or actor, photos of yourself have no place on your résumé. Your appearance has nothing to do with your ability to do the job, so including a photo comes across as naive and unprofessional.
Subjective. Like I wrote on another thread, it's acceptable in certain climes. Btw, what does LinkedIn do? wink




Any mention of high school

If you’re more than a few years past your high school graduation date, employers don’t care which high school you attended or how much you accomplished while you were there. Keep any mention of high school off your résumé.
Subjective too. You never know when this gets you to an alumnus who's the interviewer or someone who respects products of such schools. Remember, we're selling ourselves wink

Jobs/VacanciesRe: 5 Things You Should Never Put On Your Cv by Mustay(m): 9:14am On Oct 25, 2014
Truth is there are no hard and fast rules. While some tips are general, others could be situational. For example, in a country like US, attaching your picture is not a bad idea.

I would also not agree with not writing your hobbies; in fact, it sometimes serves as an interest to the employer as they want to know what you do for 'fun'. I can only advise you put in 'smart' hobbies not 'watching movies' (most people do that) etc. Your hobbies; if it aligns with what the interviewer does serves as a 'gisting' point in some interviews. Just keep it smartwink





It's very safe to keep a professional email but sometimes, abeg bone cheesy

When dem employ you, dem go give you office email anyway. Abeg, less experienced job seekers, no try am o.

RE: Entry Level Training Programme

Dear Human Resource Manager,

I write to indicate my interest in the Entry Level Training Programme currently advertised by your firm; one which qualifications and skills align with my academic and professional background.

I am a graduate of Banking and Finance with Second Class (Upper Division), an Associate Member of the Chartered Institute of Administration (CIA) and a Graduate Member of Nigerian Institute of Management (NIM).

I have previously worked as a Front Desk Officer at a publishing and advertising firm where I assisted in administrative and office support role. Similarly, I have worked as an Executive Officer at (just describe what the organization does like above; the name is really not necessary) where I organized and managed a group of intellectual students to generate leads, arranged, planned and delivered product and services using advanced media aids at meetings and events. (So many 'and' there; try to make it concise)

Aside developing my skills and gaining industry experiences in previous roles, I seek further honing of these in an organization that 'builds the potentials of its personnel' (or try and use any of the company values)


Please find attached a copy of my curriculum vitae for further review. I look forward to your response.

Yours sincerely,

XYZ

Christianity EtcRe: Is It Okay For A Christian To Eat Ileya Meat? by Mustay(m): 9:14pm On Oct 06, 2014
No matter how we beat around the bush, the Islam god is not the true God and Christians are not supposed to eat that meat cos it was offered to an idol. The early church admonished us on this so please do not be deceived.
One thing I've seen on this thread is that it appears some don't know what an idol means or they think they know but know not:

An idol is an image or other material object representing a deity
to which religious worship is addressed or any person or thing
regarded with admiration, adoration, or devotion.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idol


Those who face images or take their gods all around, they know themselves.

Then I came across this which seems apt:

And (remember) when Ibrahim (Abraham) said to his father Azar: "Do you take idols as aliha (gods)? Verily, I see you and your people in manifest error.
