Still planning...accommodation is Sydney is pretty expensive, I'm actually looking at sharing with someone to cut costs. How do I reach you, let's hook up. Thanks.

sleekp1:
Are those certificates? How many jobs can you get providing recommendation letters from your school?

sleekp1:
If its the original, was Katsina state in existence in 1961...olodo is too good an adjective to describe you.

great664:
Thanks for understanding. Am also sorry retaliating in same way. I need more youth like you in Nigeria.

Big Hug Bro.

Respect to U

great664:
your last statement would have answer my curiosity without violence or name calling but being the FOOOL u are and being used by Politicians to serve their interest won't make you to comment without hate. " If I had some sense" I had none but u quoted me and answer me and also abuse me. I belong to no party and don't want GEJ or GMB but blindness won't make u to use ur brain without violence. I can give u violence X100, what the mess is wrong with u? Do u mind dropping ur address here so u will know if I had any sense or not? Fu.uk u, fuuk ur generation and fu.uk whoever u are campaigning for. I.D.I.O.T bastard son of a thousand fathers,

[size=14pt]If you had actually looked well you would have noticed that the names were arranged according to surnames. How many people dey go school for Katsina in 1961?

I hate when people are in a hurry to find faults.[/size]

rhymz:
I am getting confused here, somebody please explain these parts circled in red: first, I find it hard to believe that in the 60s, there are documents whose date can start with 20...... considering this was a certificate issued in 1960 something, it raises question of authenticity if the claim here is that this copy is an exact photocopy of the original certificate.

The most disturbing one is the SSCE/WASSCE/NECO Examination on the statement of result. I want to understand this clearly, does it mean the NECO exam was in existence in 1961 or so, I don't get how NECO came into a statement of result that is alleged to have been issued in 1961. This is very confusing to me....can any of his supporters please throw light on this.

great664:
that's a statement of result issue this year my question is? We all know that Cambridge/Waec/neco/ any exam in Nigeria arrange the names Alphabetically, so are you telling me that in Buhari class, there is nobody with surname that started from A-L that Muhammadu has to be 002 as seat number? He couldn't get it in 30yrs but in less than 24 hrs he produce it? Put sentiment aside and clarify me.

brianlerry:
Unsw too, would be leaving by the end of January

ukchy:
Congrats dear

malkinburg:
Congrats. My friend in lag should be leaving first week of Feb to NSW u guys cud hook up

koolnonie: Want to apply for llm in enivronmental law there.did u do urs through an agent?

Domwise: Good to know you will be heading to UNSW; We'll catch up when you land. My course is 1.5yrs, and I have plans of getting pr too but it's not a "do or die affair" because I'm much more interested in getting oversea job(maybe in Canada, or U.S.A) than getting pr here.
This is what I'll advice you to do: come here and make good grades, use your grade and work experience to apply for jobs, yes you can write expression of interest to companies letting them know what you can offer and with God's favor u can get a job before your student visa expires. Though, it's very difficult to get permanent job while on temporal visa, but God does miracle too. Beside, UNSW has started GAP program for Law student; a kind of graduate internship program for international graduate law students.
Another option is that you can enroll for another one yr course after ur Msc to enable you qualify for graduate work visa(e.g Subclass 485 or 476 for Engineers) which will pave way for PR eventually.

tblackE61: Thks bro!! Really appreciate pls do u know any thing about cable visa? I had australia don't issue visa here in Nigeria dey issue it at d point of entry pls pal how true is this?

Domwise: It's so unfortunate I have not been able to
contact any Nigeria in Sydney or UNSW and
because of that, I had to land at my friends place
in Brisbane. I will be going to Sydney this
weekend, I need a Nigerian that can help, assist
or advice me on how to get casual jobs asap, and
help me adapt to live in Sydney quickly. Morealso,
I'm planning on renting one accomodatn I saw on
gumtree located at Surry Hill but I would prefer to
share accommodatn(flat or roomshare) with any
Nigerian

Ch1KeLu: SHELL has not collapsed. They recently bumped their Entry Level salary package.

NLNG is not a Government Institution.It certainly has not lost any "shine".

NLNG Entry Level annual package plus 1 overseas Training equals 2promotions and 9overseas trainings in Belewu's Company.

Filling the Void wth Prostitutes C'mon.

Sounds lke he is still bitter.

Belewu:

All,
I've been checking out this forum for awhile now and this particular thread interests me for the following reason; I was part of the assessment centre in 2004 and back then, was unfortunate (or so i thought) not to be invited for medicals. What made it worse was that my best friend (whom i was convinced i was smarter than) was called and eventually got the job. It was a very dark period in my life and almost led to the break-up of my relationship with my girlfriend. The guys got sent to the UK for 6 months which even hurt more.
8 months down the line i got a job with ??. its been 3yrs been then, i have gone to the UK 6 times and US 3 times for training. I already have 2 trips to each location planned for this year. I have been promoted once and looking up to the next one by the end of the year. my peers in NLNG average about 10mm/pa, i'm looking at 12mm this year. Most have never seen outside naija since the training in the UK and are all still on entry level and will be so for at least the next 3yrs. They are stuck in Bonny most of the time, filling the void with courting prostitutes and the like. Am i envious now? Hell no! Lest i forget, i got married to the lady that stuck by me last year!
What am i trying to say here? NLNG is a great job, but there are better things out there, keep your focus and if your good, your definitely going to shine. Stop beefing urselves ova this and work on your next plan. People got into SHELL but now the company is on the verge of collapse. 5000 job cuts by April is the rumor. The company has not paid its contractors since March last year. NNPC and Delta steel started like NLNG but like all government institutions, have lost their glamour.Life is a race, u cld be infront today, behind 2mo. Just keep on running man, and u'll get there.

Easy now

ikenna58: Erza hon, u are the treasure that I seek, u were close to me yet I did not know; the love that I seek for many years was right beside me yet I couldn't see it!

Dfavouredone: There was this beggar who was passing by a posh street. He sighted a man who appeared well off. The man was washing a lovely automobile, which gave further credence to his being wealthy. The beggar walked slowly up to him. As the beggar approached, the man began to feel apprehensive. He thought the beggar was going to be a nuisance by asking him for money. And he dreaded such a nuisance value, but took it forgranted that he was going to have to bear it. However, when the beggar drew close up to him, instead of asking for money, the beggar politely and confidently - without the slightest dint of shyness or trepidation - began to engage the man in a more or less intellectual conversation. The man thoroughly enjoyed the company of the beggar and was pleasantly surprised at his level of understanding of life. When the beggar declared it was time for him to go, the man missed him already and was forced to ask, 'But don't you need help?' Instead of the usual, 'Please, help me, for I do need help,' the beggar simply reiterated, 'Don't we all need help?' The man ended up giving him much more than he had initially intended to.

This story is for all those who prepare to face NLNG soon. Don't give them the impression you are begging for a job. Give them the impression that they need your help; they need your services; that you are the person they want, that you are capable of working for them; believe me, they need you as much as you need them; recall what the beggar said: 'Don't we all need help?' I tell you, we all do, including the great and mighty NLNG. I say this because I know that someone out there is asking, 'Can I really make it; am I the one they want?' I tell you, 'Be still and know that [God] is God' (Psalm 46 v 10). We all here at nairaland.com are waiting especially for your testimony. Your furture is colourful, and I know you will get there. Besides, 'He that started the good work in you will be faithful to complete it.' And, above all, 'they that trust in the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and shall not be weary; they shall walk and shall not faint.'

majekdom2: you were called to bar seven years back, how old were you then ... 20 - 21 . I should know how old you were when you got admitted into the uni before I assume you have a computer age .well , except you are not in Nigeria. Sadly , a requirement is your NYSC discharge.

majekdom2: Bro , @ those comments .. Na naija u dey , expect anything . I would advice you focus on getting good grades and make your 2 1 first before starting to practice gmat or shl .. I don't think its a shl and gmat with your course loads would be a good combination. Well , you really want a career in this industry ? Work properly on your final year project work .. Who knows , it might break you into the industry .. I know peeps who are in these companies cause of researches they had with these companies. All said bro , its a competitive market out there . If NLNG is to follow this same trend , I don't think your age in 7 years time would make you eligible for this position , I was in my first year the last time this was done. You can look into other companies. The truth has always been said , if you are good you are good ... All you need do is pray for God's grace with your preparations. I ll advice you do proper networking .

stevolinkon40: what of OP? I know its used for someone who starts a thread but whats d meaning
