| Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Some Management/career Lesson You Should Learn Before You Start Work by Mustay(m): 9:50am On Aug 07, 2013*. Modified: 11:58am On Aug 11, 2013 |
Permit my excuse to be 'unSAKAstic' but you can't derive morals from the immoral  a la lesson 2 (especially) & 1.Perhaps my school of thought may not 'lol'  at such but am sure you take criticisms in good light  and you understand the diversity of perspectives. Lessons: 1 -- MIS (Management Information System) 2 -- Continuous Professional Development You are as good as the date you obtained your qualifications. You have to learn and update yourself to stuffs relevant to your career.  3 -- Respecting 'Organogram' & The Chain of Authority. Let's you know when/what decisions are within/beyond you, when you should consult or when you've got veto power. 4 -- Professionalism Quite true in Nigeria. Sleeping around or illegal connections may get you to an unmerited position but Karma is so sweet, your weaknesses will be exposed cos you don't merit it. Meritocracy supports professionals (who are good at what they do), they'll know how to stay up there. Nepotism can deprecate professionals but it only makes you stronger . At the end, shortcuts are what they are, cutting you short.  5 -- That explains itself quite well. Choose your friends carefully, concentrate on your work and avoid/manage office politics as your utterances will be used against you - even by your 'friends' 1 Like |

If you're serious it's better that way, a lot seem to think F1 - F3 is the easiest and fastest route. Apparently, it's structured that way but in reality, some spend 3 years taking the fundamentals. The CAT helps in giving you a solid foundation for a start and by the time one transfers to skills stage, you're experienced in ACCA exams. Default CAT strategy - 4-4-2 papers. If you fail along the line,.combine and it may become 3-3-3 |

If his first album was released around circa '93 and he wasn't a child then, some of these people posting rubbish about little they know cos of free posting online would relax and quit peddling guesses in the name of vain talk. gudugudumeje: There is something wrong with Lagbaja believing his identity should remain a mystery to the public except found last minute to exit from this sinful world.In NL, people don't ask or make research before jumping onto conclusions. Lagbaja has explained the reasons why he wears mask and to him, it's for a cause. Try googling that first. Secondly, if you know what Lagbaja means in Yoruba, it's apt he wears a mask cos Lagbaja could be "anybody". http://www.lagbaja.com/about/about.php Last time he was asked this mask question by Kenny, he did say that until Nigeria was 'better', he won't remove it. The definition of better is actually a tall order! To him, that's a social cause as he doesn't see anything to be happy about the governance of the people to make him remove the mask. 2 Likes |

| Education › Re: What Do We Gain By Supporting ASUU Strike? by Mustay(m): 5:04pm On Aug 04, 2013 |
sarutobie: Yea right! When a 70year old man whose voice can't go pass the first row of students in his classroom should be tending his gardens and playing with his grandkids,they insists he should still be in the classroom teaching from brown and dusty notebooks filled with outdated materials from 3 decades ago...in this computerised era of constant exchange of new infomation and ideas?His grand kids are probably your mates, they're also aspiring and don't have time for him. The old man too has a passion for his job and he's restless at home due ti redundancy. In foreign schools, you have lecturers with half-a-century experience on the job. You don't just throw away experience like. It's this research funding ASUU mentioned too cos if this was invested in, your lecturers would be making new discoveries and will be updated just as contemporaries are. Again, funding. If these schools are probably funded, technological aids can help. With an over-populated class, surely there will be a lot of noise. This is another issue the union had been fighting for. You're already used to so many students in a classroom which isn't supposed to be so. The teacher to student ratio is alarming. sarutobie: The change ASUU seeks must start from within them.A school like FUTO for example,departments habour a silent animosity among themselves and at the end,their respective students bear the brunt whenever they take up a course from the 'opposing' department.what about the fraud that is Post Ume? What do they do with the yearly millions they get from conducting the test? ASUU should put their house in order first!These are administrative issues. They're not exclusively ASUU issues. Another reason they seek autonomy of universities but it seems who pays the piper. . . On the ASUU strike, Nigerians have suffered so much from misgovernance, they no longer know their rights or government's responsibilities. ITBomb has mentioned valid points here but it beats me that we don't query those we elected, "why can't government honour agreements entered into?". The ASUU strike remains a recurring index of government's insensitivity to education. We can choose to be myopic and make ASUU the enemy for our selfish desires but in the long run, the effects of these issues will haunt us. No serious nation neglects education of its citizens if it wants a better tomorrow. The government has a duty educate her citzens. I guess with the way Nigerians are accepting the failure of their leaders, "the mob does not deserve to be enlightened." |

ikeugbo: What we should ask is how many customers ported in and out of networks, if 30000 people ported and MTN lost 15000 of them does that harm them in any way, the number of subscribers before MNP on the MTN networks was 45million now they have 52 million so who lost.true! In fact, this is a bias of statistics - sometimes the sample may be small but outcomes are outrageous; am not privy too the data used here anyway. Nigeria shoots herself in the foot when she makes business difficult to conduct yet she wants regulation or 'rights' in the abyss of so many wrongs she created. |

MTN Nigeria has taken a big hit by recording 49 per cent of the overall subscribers that have switched service providers under the recently introduced Mobile Number Portability (MNP) scheme, according to figures released this week by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC).http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/porting-mtn-is-biggest-loser-etisalat-biggest-gainer/155048/ My take: I did note that like Ghana, MTN being the 'biggest loser' wouldn't be a surprise prediction but industry experts had warned us to note this may just be aesthetics (see Re: MTN The Most Hated Network? For No Reason ) 'cos after all, a company may make huge profits on paper but have low cash to pay out in real terms In simple words, this might just be a play on numbers. The long-term effects (let's see in 2015 for example) may however dispute or suport this notion! Reality: much still has to be done as regards ease of porting to one's network of choice in a country where subscribers already have more than one phone for different networks or dual SIM phones. Still, if the alternatives were better, a huge number of these subscribers would rather have one phone or network provider to satisfy their telecom needs. |

kwajahafiz: I eat one meal a day at noon day.....yea, plenty of water the rest of the day.....No eating or snacking till the next noon day meal....I tried doing the ramadan fast with a moslem friend just for the heck of it, but found that a lot of food intake is encouraged after sun down till sunset.I noticed eating here but not drinking - yes, no big deal at least we've seen the report of a man who survived for days with WATER! Ayoobscom has already highlighted some of what I'd have written but all the same, Ramadan ain't just about abstinence from food and drinks, that's just a part of it. That you see Muslims 'encouraging' large intake during sunset doesn't mean they're right - afterall, during Eid-il-Adha(Illeya), you have 'Muslims' who fight with rams which is wrong. Similarly, the prophetic tradition doesn't encourage eating without caution as he recommended 1/3 food, 1/3 water and 1/3 air. |

caseless: This is why u see 2-2 and thirdy doing better in practicals, living life or relating with pple the better way and even teach or give u tutorials where u see firstclass lacking the methodology to pass the messge across to their fellows who are in need of help b4 they write test or exams.I don't AGREE with this. This is prejudicial. Behavioural patterns vary amongst individuals - one stick cannot be a perfect index. Some study in school, play at home, hostel or what have you. Some appear unserious in school but 'jack' like crazy at home. It's what suits you that matters in school. I don't subscribe to this stereotype as I have seen 1st class students teach (they gain social skills via interaction and improve on technical skills via retention of data) and 2.2/3rd class students who zero-off social life to move up the ladder to no avail. Moreover if you don't know the concepts, no methodology would enable you IMPART knowledge on end-users. However, it must be noted that there's a reason why it's said you should let school go through you, don't just go to school. The 'culture' of a school has influences on one's social behavior but undergraduates and graduates MUST know that technical skills is thing, relationship and practical skills are another. It's your responsibility to incorporate these as you finish school or seek jobs. It's the more reason the certificate reads you are of "good character bla bla bla" - even though the institution may not have a particular course for this, you're expected to know these. |

"Do not spare him, but kill men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels and asses." (1 Samuel 15:3) This is what happens when people cherrypick for sample bias.

I don't want you to think anybody can help you, just erase others from your mind and think ONLY YOU CAN HELP YOU first. I don't know what your industry target is but I assume like most accountants, it starts here: Accounting Firms, Tax Consultants in Nigeria - http://www.nigeriagalleria.com/Banking_and_Finance/Accounting_Firms_Tax_Consultants_a.html Use this directory, call or visit some of these guys. Tell them you want to do your internship there - it may be paid or not or they even just recruit you but it's better to do this for 3,6 months or 1 year with EXPERIENCE on your CV than to have home-sitting experience which can't be used on your CV. Considering that you're writing your ICAN, this may suit you you can combine work and job together. You have to start from somewhere, be proactive, don't be reactive. |
