2good: The bolded and coloured part of quote is a very wrong allegation. Tell me where you saw in the entire posts on this topic where someone talked about working for an oil company all their life? Most people here are young and still at the early stage of their career so there is nothing wrong in them exchanging ideas on how to jump start their career.

Exactly.

It is possible.

'I am spartacus!!!'
That's my favourable movie quote. Hahahahahahah

nairaman66: The First Lady will do better.. Or are you the First Lady Jona's Wife to be more specific?

quite surprised you couldn't sense the humour in my post, sowi

slimyem: stop being uptight you two!
It wasn't a mistake on that poster's part.it was a delibrate reversal attempt at humour!

@slimyem, temistastics, ikachi, and jammyng,thanks jare, am quite suprised that they couldnt get the drift, they no 'jasi' at all, maybe i should come down to their level and say the usual, 'i reserve my comment'. .

slimyem: stop being uptight you two!
It wasn't a mistake on that poster's part.it was a delibrate reversal attempt at humour!

Thanks jare, they never did comprehend that, they no 'jasi'.

I comment my reserve on this.

blink182: Beaf is right, you are blabbing rubbish if you are not on ground.

You are wrong, why would you say something like that, is it necessary to be on ground before you know what is happening, FYI, i was watching aljazeera tv this morning and a ninja proffesor based in U.K or so was analysing the boko haram and government thing, believe me, it was a perfect analysis. So?

Please let us be realistic here, it is a 'if you say the truth, you are out' situation. He was sacked because he told the world why he could not function as the NSA. He said that PDP is BH and BH is PDP, and you should know that he could only work with orders from his masters.

Mtweeeeeeeeeewwwwwww, nonsense, all na wash

^^^ long time, welcome. @mycvclinic

Tobi Soniyi
TheChief Justice of Nigeria (CJN),
Justice Dahiru Musdapher, Tuesday
submitted no less than 52
amendments to the 1999
Constitution, as amended, to Senate
President David Mark, which in his
view will strengthen the judiciary
and reduce the seemingly
intractable delays in determining
cases.
The amendments, which he tagged
‘Constitution of the Federal Republic
of Nigeria, 1999 (5th Alteration) Bill,
2012’, if they sail though, will affect
the qualification for the appointment
ofjudges, retirement and discipline
among other issues.
The alterations affect, among other
things, the appellate jurisdiction of
the Supreme Court by providing that
appeals from the Court of Appeal on
interlocutory decisions and other
matters shall be by the consent of
the Supreme Court.
He also proposed a provision to
streamline the traditional
jurisdiction of the Federal High Court
to preserve what the CJN describes
as, “those core jurisdictions of the
Federal High Court particularly those
that affect the Federal Government
and its agencies”.
Hesuggested that qualification for
appointment as a justice of the
Supreme Court be raised from 15
years post call experience to 25
years.
In the bill, to qualify for appointment
as a justice of the Court of Appeal, a
legal practitioner must have been
qualified to practise law for 20 years.
Under the present dispensation, a
12-year post call experience suffices.
Similarly, the provision for
appointment as a judge of a high
court has been jacked up to 15 years
post call up from the present 10
years.
Musdapher also suggested that the
number of justices of the court be
reduced to 16 as against the present
21.
He recommended that an advisory
jurisdiction be created for the
Supreme Court. To this effect, he
recommended that a new section,
Section 232 (A) be inserted in the
constitution.
Other amendments in the bill
regulate procedures at the courts
aimed at reducing the time it takes
to give final judgment in cases.
For instance, the appellate
jurisdiction of the Supreme Court
was modified to reduce the number
of interlocutory appeals to the apex
court.
Section 233 of the constitution will
be amended to make sure that
disputes over chieftaincy affairs
would terminate at the Court of
Appeal.
Theamendment, however, retained
some of the controversial areas in
the administration of justice in the
country. For instance, whereas it had
been suggested that the CJN should
not double as the chairman of the
National Judicial Council (NJC), the
amendment supports the retention
of the arrangement.
The implication is that there is
likelihood that a similar face-off
between Justice Ayo Salami and
retired Justice Aloysius Katsina-Alu
could recur in the future.
Other proposals include:
•Toalter the composition of the NJC
and the Federal Judicial Commission
(FJC) to ensure greater balance;
•Removalof judicial officers has
been streamlined to ensure a
greater degree of fairness;
•Old Section 295 regarding reference
on questions of law has been deleted
asit has been identified as a means
to stall the swiftness of the trial
process.
The CJN after presenting the
amendments added that despite the
separation of powers, it is
imperative that the National
Assembly and the judiciary work in
harmony for the common good of
the nation.
Speaking after the chief justice had
presented the proposed
amendments, Senator Mark assured
Musdapher that the proposals would
address all grey areas to promote
the quick dispensation of justice.
Marksaid: “Anything we can do to
deliver justice swiftly without delay
is welcome. Justice delayed is justice
denied.”
He added, “The three arms of
government are important. We must
work together to promote
democracy and deliver the dividend
to our people,” promising that the
amendment would be done with
dispatch to correct all the grey areas
in the 1999 Constitution, in an open,
honest and transparent manner.
The CJN’s submission of the
amendments came with the
clarification by the Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Constitution
Review, Senator Ike Ekweremadu,
yesterday foreclosing the extension
of the June deadline for the
submission of memoranda on
constitution amendments by
interested members of the public.
Ekweremadu, who is also the deputy
senate president, stated this when
the International Republic Institute
(IRI), led by its Country Director,
Robina Namusisi, and IRI consultant,
Charles Lasham, paid him a courtesy
visit in his office.
The deputy senate president said the
decision not to extend the June
deadline was to enable the
committee to meet the April 2013
date already set to deliver on the
legislature's promise.

The latest draft of the Petroleum
Industry Bill (PIB) put together by a
presidential task force would be sent
to President Goodluck Jonathan
within weeks, Group Managing
Director (GMD) of the Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation
(NNPC), Mr. Austen Oniwon has said.
The GMD’s comments yesterday were
thelatest in a string of
pronouncements by top government
officialspredicting imminent
passage of the controversial oil
reforms bill with none of the
previous deadlines met.
President Jonathan had in a
broadcast last month promised to
liaise with the National Assembly to
expedite action on the passage of
the bill in order to ensure
transparency in the oil and gas
sector.
Specifically, the president had given
the assurance that the latest draft bill
would be completed in June and sent
tothe National Assembly. But some
industry stakeholders who spoke to
THISDAY at the weekend doubted
the feasibility of the new draft bill
reaching the National Assembly this
month, when it was yet to be
submitted to the Federal Executive
Council for ratification.
The PIB had gone through several
drafts in recent years but lawmakers,
the Federal Government and the
international oil companies could
not reach a compromise on the fiscal
regime provided in the previous bill
because of the fear that it will not
favour them.
But allaying those fears in a
telephone conversation yesterday,
Acting Group General Manager,
Group Public Affairs Division, at the
NNPC, Mr. Fidel Pepple, said the re-
worked bill would be sent to the
president before the end of this
month for onward presentation to
the National Assembly.
“I can confirm that the new draft bill
will reach the president before the
end of June. We are very confident
about that and he will thereafter
present it to the national assembly,”
Pepple assured.
Activities in the oil and gas had been
at very low ebb because the much
expected transformation in the
sector that was premised on the PIB
is yet to take place. Sources at the
petroleum ministry said new
investments are not coming in,
while various oil and gas projects
have suffered setbacks.
“Virtually everything in the oil and
gas industry is now at a standstill as
we speak, investment, development
of new and old projects, all of that,
because of the non passage of the
PIB,” the source lamented.
Chairman, House Committee on
Upstream Sector, Hon. Ajibola
Muriana, recently raised the alarm
over current lull in investment
activity in the Nigerian Oil and Gas
industry due to continued delay in
the passage of the PIB. He however
noted that areas of contention were
about to be resolved, assuring that
the House would ensure expeditious
passage of the bill once it is
presented to it.
“We all know the implications of the
bill not passed into law. However,
we are told that those areas of
contention are about to be resolved.
So I can assure you that the bill once
presented to us, definitely, within
the next two weeks or one month,
we will do justice to it,” he said.

Thouqh hv taken some salient & neccessary corrections from you all....wanna thank you once aqain....its sort of an eye-opener for me now.........Ooops!!! I heard someone made mention of the word ''Proof-read''(you quys really make me reminisce on what our DNA can do by Proof-readinq all the seqment of our DNA such that all our genes doesn't make mistakes when our qenes are bin copied or translated by Protein to avoid copyinq Junk Genes which causes some of these inherited Genetic Disorders some people faced in our society)

Oga, stop now, u just dey 'jabo'.

You think so?? Would you go for either of the two rather than been driven with passion in order to get the best out of the two situations?
Anyway it is about choice and capabilities, but the best has been proffered.

Simple, do both and hope to get a better course while you're enjoying your horticulture stuff for the meantime. Hope you catch the drift.

kasperone8: [color=#000099[b]]Your statement is vague.It's hard to decipher whether you are corroborating claims that Stanbic pays lower or higher than the other banks.[/color][/b]

Exactly. Couldnt deduce what is needed from his posts.

Mukina, one of my threads that is sensible and always begging for front page appearance never did make it to the FP, while your #god is punishing#, and other threads would always make it, its damn crazy o. Not nairaland anymore but mukinaland indeed. Enjoy.

boneruns: Stanbic ibtc pay can't be compared to other banks like gtb, firstbank and etc. I currently work there and i know what i'm talking. BM's of stanbic and GTB can never be compared in terms of pay. Even my BM doesn't hide is pay can't be compared with his level at other banks. When i read the OP, I knew the bank he was referring to.

Then i was right with my first post here.

nubian22: Serious for what i said his wife dead some years back i think that shld be in 2010 or so. Then he was still the diector of NDDC so my dear i knw what am saying. She dead of cancer

buhahahahahaha, infact u really meant what u said.

Gbabe 2: I seriously need your advices.I have an HND in Accountancy,a BSc in Accountancy,an ACCA,a CISA(certified in Information System Audit),a CIA (certified in Internal Audit)and a CrFA(certified in forensic Accounting)certificates and preparing for CISSP(Certified in system security professional exams).I presently work in an Insurance company as Assistant Manager by recently won this 2012 DV visa lottery.what do you think I can do?am at loggerheads.Should I relocate or continue with my career here?Please share your experiences

haha, bros, are you for real? you get mouth o. Anyway the best is to follow your mind.

Which do you need for excemptions as a degree holder, transcript, statement of result or Nysc call-up letter?

adesteve: Why not? A Yoruba adage says ''Ilesanmi dun 'joye lo''! What is point of a 'take-home' that cannot take you home? What is key is not the grade but what the salary can do for you to realise your dreams. I can bet it that the Int'l Bank you are referring to is Stanbic!

i think it is the one other than the two that their names start with 'S'.

Bro/sis, it is a scam.

This group na bad group o, every one still has the chance to qualify likewise go home.
