One Day be one day. Did you know how many robbery operations Lawrence Anini did until he was caught and faced the consequences. Repent now before you meet your doom. Meanwhile there are so many people who had sex the first time without protection and caught the deadly virus.

Hi, Good afternoon..

Please how can I study past questions for graduate trainee programs (GT) so as to be called for the next stage?

I have tried it for some time now and it's really becoming frustrating.

I would be 27 by September and this means that by then, I would have crossed the benchmark for most GT Program.

And I even wanted to go for 1 -3 years experience jobs in Lagos and other states, but I can't due to location and I don't have much to pair with a roommate.

Your concern about the disparity in salaries between Nigerian companies and their international counterparts is valid. The issue of underpayment is multifaceted, involving economic factors, industry standards, and cultural attitudes toward compensation.

Key Factors Contributing to Underpayment:
1. Economic Conditions: Nigeria's economic challenges, including inflation and currency fluctuations, impact salary scales.
2. Industry Standards: Different industries have varying pay scales, often influenced by profit margins and competition.
3. Lack of Regulation: Weak labor laws and enforcement can lead to exploitation.
4. Skill Demand: High demand for certain skills, like software development, can drive up pay in those areas.

Potential Solutions:
1. Advocacy for Labor Rights: Strengthening labor laws and enforcement can help protect workers.
2. Industry Standards: Companies can adopt fair pay practices, recognizing the value of their employees.
3. Skill Development: Investing in education and training can increase the supply of skilled workers, potentially driving up wages.

Your Story:
Your experience highlights the growing demand for tech skills and the potential for higher earnings in fields like software development and social media management.

$3500 in Norway? That might be exaggeration. Like in England here its between 2000 to 2500 but you have to pay taxes lets say 1900 will hit your account after tax. Taking house rent and other expenses at the end of the month u still get 500 to 600 which is not bad.

As at 2014 five hundred pounds is just 140k this means if u are earning 200k to 250k in 2014 you are more or far batter than someone earning 2k in Europe


I genuinely value your contribution, however the top executives of these companies are still making money and didn’t cut down their own salaries, they increase the cost of the goods and services and you will expect that to translate to employees, it’s one of the reasons I don’t apply to Nigerian companies or gigs. The mentality is to pay you lower than you deserved.

How bad our economy has degraded under APC


Back to Nigeria.
Businesses are struggling also.. Running fuel, facing inflation.


During inflation it's said that those on fixed income do suffer loses.

3 years ago 80k will get u like 3 bags of rice... But today it can only get u 1 bag. And in 2015 80000 will get u 8 bags of rice. The irony is that 8 bags of rice cost 700,000. Thats almost a million.

To compensate or adjust for inflation your uncle should be earning 700+ per month

But is it nice to keep money growth this high? Economically its not.. Its way too high.


The naira devaluation really caused hardship on Nigeria and we haven't seen what the government has achieved with it..


During next. Elections please mobilise ur family to get voters card and stand vote APC out.

We need someone who could take security priority number 1. The Fulani herdsmen, bandits, boko haram and also ESN must be tackled and rooted out. If the north is free then farmers can return back to farm produce more food for the everb growing population.
Support dangote and other local refineries

We need to tackle corruption, construct roads linking villages to township, upgrade our railway systems.

If all this are put in place then prices will fall drastically.

We know your type... Using scope to run away. Collect it and just hide inside your wardrobe for just three days and you trash it after the fourth days.

madridguy:
Just keep it in your house and when next your friends visit with their kids they can play with it.

madridguy:
Why not drop your house address and let him post the local children toys to you.
