Lemme share my story. It might just inspire someone out there.

Never give up, In whatever you believe, just never give up
2019 was a big year, a year of hope. NNPC, NCS, immigration and prison service advertised for vacancies.
I applied for all.
NB: I never believed in seeking jobs through connection ever since I got scammed.,I once made attempt at NCS in 2016. I was scammed 10,600 naira processing fee (CHINDO I. UBA, A/C NO 1130537304, SKYE BANK, whoeer you are, wherever you are. E no go better for you)
.
Going forward, I got no feedback from immigration an prison service. Buh NNPC did invite me for CBT and interview. Went through the whole process. February 14, 2020, Valentine's day, NNPC dropped success mail to the lucky ones. I got nothing. I was downcasted. I can still remembered how I came back from work, feeling weak inside, I took my bath, dressed my bed. And slept till the next day. Morning came still no mail from almighty NNPC. I decided to move on.
I was left with only NCS as the last hope. Mind you we've sat for CBT buh no response from them thereafter.
The COVID struck, then came lockdown and economic downturn.
There was rumour of the recruitment being suspended. Lockdown was lifted, August through to December, still no news.
I gave up, I assumed it was over. I decided to focus on the job I was doing with it's meagre pay.
New year 2021 came knocking. I was cleaning my room one morning in preparation to usher in the new year. I came across my application slips. I wanted to tear it and throw it off. Buh something just struck my heart to hold unto it.

Fast forward to mid February 2021. I had issue with my new boss at my place of work. She was attacking me at the slightest opportunity.
One Friday like that around 1p.m or thereabout, a brother and friend called me "Alaye, congratulations. Customs shortlist you o". I was the only one I the office. My other colleagues have gone for jumaat prayer. I shouted for joy. Asked the friend to forward me the list.
I checked. It was indeed my name.
Buh then, 3,500 names were shortlisted. Meaning surely people would be dropped. Fear struck me again buh I put myself together.
I asked my boss to grant me leave from work for 5 working days, that I wanted to attend a conference. She reluctantly granted me, hammering on It that my duties will be left unattended to for one whole week. She even gave me 1k.
Off to Gwagwalada..... With my full chest full of hope.
The whole process was encouraging. Result verification was fine. Other physical test. Endurance race..... I ran like my life depends on it....
The officials congrats us. Ask us to prepare for camp cos we will be summoned soon. I was happy and believed i had landed the Job.
March went bye, April, May, June, July..... We were told soon, 5 months isn't something to describe as soon. My high hopes was becoming thin. Call came in from a fellow applicant that we've connected immediately after the 1st screening. Customs don drop list.... Waited for the PDF to circulate but it took time. Left work to get the news paper.
All the names in it were strange. My name was not found. Again I said it's over. Then NCS explained "it was a supplementary list. Hope came alive again, but with more competition.
Fast forward to the present day. After so many predictions, counter predictions and speculations, November 1, my guy man called again as he did in July, padi, Final List don drop o. I ask him "you see ur name" his reply, the screenshot circulating is not clear, and some people are already lamenting". Omo, that message is not encouraging, but with what he said I wasn't afraid or anxious.
I checked the WhatsApp group I was on over 100 messages.
Read the message through, just a few said they saw their names.... And there was the PDF staring at me. I downloaded, scroll through, and there was my name, against my application number. It was me.
It seems like I was dreaming. I closed my eye and opened it again. It was definitely my name. You have to imagine how I did that CR7 jump of celebration in my room. Fulfillment came, on the first day of a new month.

I had always believed I would get a government job without connection, and I did got it.
14/Feb/2020.... I missed NNPC job. A year later 12/Feb/2021 NCS came calling.... And it here in full. I got the job, my guy man got in too.

Truly, good things come to those who wait.
Congratulations to all those who landed this job. And if you didn't, don't give up, what's truly yours will locate you, at the appointed time. Remember, don't give up.
Peace unto everyone of us.

She's not a newbie to this thread and i don't think she'll post her APL online. Kindly apologize to her sir and calm down

eniolaamos7:
I'm not a small pikin sir. But it's what we all interested in. And we are going to share ourselves codedly..

eniolaamos7:
Thanks sir for being supportive and informative all this while.
We will not snap and upload but we will share it codedly on the platform here....... basically in written form as per the amount for respective levels

eniolaamos7:
some people will still want to know how much will be received by each cadre (including myself about other cadres like level 3 and 4)...but if I could get the information at the headquarter I might worry not about sharing any info here

eniolaamos7:
Yes........we should handle it codedly.

Perfectdanny:

What will be will be��
Customs is not even some people's calling but we are all chasing money.���
Let God lead the way����

badmus1148:
Sorry is it still the same 3200 or it has increased to 5000??

Lilsameey:
,..Yes, I am an introvert now and it's interesting.

Lilsameey:
At Peace, Not only been single but free from pests called friends.

Sikpa04:
Chairman, sorry to say but I don't know why I just doubt this information. You know, we have been hearing this same excuse since March. Only for Customs to release a supplementary list. Which clearly showed us that the delay, then, was not due to hostel facilities but shortage of candidates needed to fill vacant positions. Therefore, a second batch was birthed to make up for the the low turn out in March.
So this information from the person at Kano, I don't think it holds water at this stage.

Swipa:
not exactly. It depends on your skill. I've turned $0.36 to $12 in less than one hour.

badmus1148:
So nothing like final list anytime soon?

Hassanmaye:
Are you not active on social media it was posted on Nairaland forum to the world, so it's painful to come and attack Muslims on Muslim thread. I'm referring to the post here daft

Ibnbabes4ol:
The Ref. Number is wrong, have u ever seen a ref number without a Year ? If not for breach of confidentiality I would have shared a sample of the Board and Mgt letters and notices, also the person who signed as Secretary did the mistake of making himself a Customs officer, the Secretary of the Board isn't an officer.
No stamp or seal on the Letter and it's on plain paper not letter headed paper, Haba Guys let's use our brains for oncenow, if at this level u can't figure out a fake paper I wonder how u would detact fake invoices from smugglers.
And who invites or calls for meeting via a memo for heaven sake?
Am sure someone just typed that to see reactions maybe someone with real source might come out and talk, lol, abeg next time when we want to forge let's do better.

Lovenorth:
What?

stanley000:
Muslims manage polygamy very well coz the wives know their husband have no problem slitting their throats if they don't act right.

Comedian2019:
No wonder islam is a "peaceful" religion.
Any religion that kills is evil.
Zombies, quote me if you are also evil.

Hassanmaye:
Ok, we have One mad pastor that Said fornication is not a sin

majamajic:
Agungi is in lekki


What I see here is a fruit seller who dumped his already damaged mangoes inside gutter , if he wanted to store the mangoes inside the gutter to resell , he will put them inside a sack to avoid losing any.

Lots of fruits got spoilt during this period ,

He dumped the damaged fruits inside gutter (which is not good) , not that he wanted to resell them but as waste

Now I'm scared. I'll definitely settle for epidurals or get a sorrugate mom. I can't bear such pain.
