Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Should I Keep My Job Or Travel To The UK by Obagreatdatoye(m): 2:19pm On Jan 02, 2024

This might sound harsh but this is true. We need to look at the statistics of everything majority of those who enjoy this country(average to wealthy life o)are the political class, the number of “ordinary/poor man” that enjoys this country are few, the question is are you going to be part of them ?

I have a friend who graduated with first class and risked everything and started a cold room somewhere in Rivers.. spoke to him last week his transformer spoilt going to 2 weeks now. He has been down, these are some of the things one can face doing a business here…And believe me I’m a very strong advocate of invest in Nigeria but recently with experience my stance is changing gradually

There are opportunities in this country, you are even a federal worker so job security is guaranteed. But you need to also consider future Prospects, how fast can you get to the top of your field? What will you be earning in the next 5 years at your current job to support your family? Godforbid you or anyone close to you develops an expensive sickness. These are factors you might have missed which you have to include while making a final decision


Finally I’m in a similar situation as I have a fully funded scholarship to the uk with stipends, my current job pays me something similar to yours. and these are some of the things I considered

Everything is a risk but which one will you do and per adventure it doesn’t work out, you can leave with?
Hi ...please how do get ur scholarship.. I'm interested ..need a guide on it

Business › Re: 2023: Companies That Exited Nigeria Amid Economic Challenges by Obagreatdatoye(m): 6:23pm On Dec 28, 2023
[quote author= post=127666990]The government know what to do to help these businesses to grow.
They need to do something to keep them afloat.

But in some cases though,
The internal staff ran this businesses down with looting and stealing.
Many indigenous companies have been ran down by the staff they employ.
A good example below....


Nigerians are the problems of Nigeria.......for real!

Greed and Dishonesty, the two main problems of an average Nigerian.
Read along to understand our reasons for saying so......

(N.B : If you are a fraudster and criminal on Nairaland,
Skip to the next post or you may not survive reading this)


*HOME TRUTH*

[i]I run a manufacturing business and a trading business.
The biggest challenge in my manufacturing business is not power, or infrastructure, the biggest challenge is getting honest staff.
Everyone we hire appears to be on a mission to steal as much as possible.
Inflated invoices, recording less than the actual number of units produced.
The worst part of it all is that all the fraud we've uncovered is not done by a single person, it's usually many staff who collude with each other, from production, to sales, to finance, even top management.
There was a year I overhauled management 3 times in a year.........
But me, I've found a solution sha, I now use Indian management.
So competent, so honest and so straightforward.
I thought they were expensive at first with all the visa fees, accommodation, house staff, but now that losses due to staff theft have been reduced to a minimum, and efficiency increased, the Indian management has turned out to be cheaper than the previous Nigerian management.
Now, all sensitive positions involving money go to Indians. Nigerians are only allowed in non-sensitive positions.
I used to criticize companies like Dangote Group that hire so many Indians when there are many unemployed Nigerians, but now, I understand their decision.

My biggest challenge in the trading business is the same, getting honest staff.
The form of trading occurs in the open market, and involves staff having access to huge sums of money running into a few millions.
I know how much I pay to security companies to provide escorts for the staff, not to prevent robbery, but to ensure that the staff go straight to the bank to deposit the money after the day's sales and not disappear with my money.
This money spent on security companies is even enough to be declared as profit.
We have to spend on CCTV, biometric scanners and other things that wouldn't be needed if staff weren't looking for the slightest opportunity to steal.

It got so bad at a point that my main criteria for employing staff was no longer competency but honesty.
At least, competency and skills can be learnt, but once you're dishonest, you're dishonest.

We always complain of the economy and how there are no jobs.
I know people abroad who would have loved to set up job creating businesses in Nigeria but they can't because they can't get any trustworthy person to run it.

I know people in Nigeria with so much money, they want to start factories and other job-creating businesses but they can't because they are occupied elsewhere and can't get any trustworthy person to run the business.
So instead of investing in the real sector and creating jobs, they'll just buy treasury bills,
while the thieves are shouting no jobs.

Many big businesses would have been born in Nigeria if we could engage in partnerships, but we cant because you can't trust anyone.
This is one advantage the Indians and Lebanese have over us in Nigeria.
They can pull resources together and do mega-business, unlike Nigerians that because only one person must do everything since we can't partner, end up with small, tiny businesses.

Start a poultry and they will be stealing your eggs. Some will even go ahead to be killing the chickens so that they'll be allowed to take them home.

Start an entertainment/viewing/game center and they'll be pocketing your money.
On the days you're around at the business, the money realized will be x10 of the money realized when you're not around.....
Because they're eating your money.

Lease out a vehicle to a driver to use and watch as he'll finish you.

Start a restaurant, the same thing will happen. More than half of the total food ingredients will end up in their personal kitchens.

Even ordinary provisions shop, they will find a way to steal.

You'll see them with that their evil, wicked saying "na where person dey work, na there e dey chop, na e make dem dey callam workchop/workshop"...... Just imagine, justifying theft at work.

And you'll see these people point their crooked fingers at politicians when they're not any different. I usually say the reason most Nigerians haven't stolen billions of government money, is simply lack of opportunity.

*On every level, Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria*.


If the truth wanna kill the online fraudsters and criminals we have on Nairaland,
you guys should better die now.
We will continue to hit your head as much as we can with the truth and be against your fraudulent lifestyle ALWAYS.
For all the scams you have scammed innocent people all over the world, and they end up committing suicide or becoming homeless, and y'all here thinking you are living large, kid you not, you will never enjoy that fraudulent money, it will lead you to your grave soonest. (You can keep hating honest, and hardworking members on this forum, but some of us will continue to kill you with the truth.)
Only if God doesn't exist.
Thieves, Barawos everywhere
.



**********************************


GREED!!!

When we say we are our own problem they start grumbling.....

Okay listen to these examples:

1. You sell chicken and add over 40% profit ,you are happy forgetting that the person that bought the chicken sells tomatoes and pepper.

2. The tomatoes and pepper seller has to recover the excess she paid for the chicken, so she adds her own 42% profit margin.

3. Teacher will come and buy these 2 items with what? She has no other alternative than to increase lesson fees or school fees.

4. You will go and rent house from a landlord who has paid excess for cement, sand, chicken, tomatoes and pepper, lesson fees, how will he meet up if not by increasing his house rent by 60%.

And the circle continues, it is not about dollars, dollars is just an excuse, abi wetin concern garri, beans and yam with dollars.

The problem is you and I and our excessive greed.



Only a fraudster or criminal will be wailing about our above post.
We hope you ain't one of them kiddo?
If so, we understand your weeping about the honest truth.
No wonder you are your fellow children are always wailing and in serious pains reading our posts here.
The earlier, the better for you.
Advice from the elders kiss



Sure we do get the good ones among the youths.


Only sane, honest and hardworking Nairalanders like you will definitely like our answers and comments,
Not the miserable fraudsters aka, children of hate, frustrations and perdition that abound here.
God bless your legit hustle man.
It will end in praise for you.[/i][/quote]Thank you....one of the best comments I've read on nairaland.

If giving up your duties as a shepherd for the glories of the world is beyond your understanding, sir it's not beyond mine.
Jesus Christ rejected the crown of the world for the work of the ministry. Therein lies the perfect example.
So I get it, following the example of Christ may be beyond your understanding.
What you know about Christ, the word and the world in is entirety is so shallow ...
Christianity Etc › Re: Why I Didn’t Stop Oba Olaoye From Contesting For Soun Stool — Adeboye by Obagreatdatoye(m): 8:40pm On Dec 17, 2023
tctrills:
We can always know if it's the voice of God because God is consistent. Do you know any other minister in the history of the bible that was released from his work in the ministry to chase after worldly glories? Just like you, I wish him well but this is not a good example.
As a shepherd, your sheep comes first. A true shepherd would forsake glory, and riches to tend to his sheep.
Man...there are somethings that are beyond human reasoning....everything about the earth and the people therein are mysteries which only GOD can decipher..Every moment we lived on earth as been predestinated ..only those that sees into the spiritual...can understand this definity....it's beyond you bro.
Health › Re: Four UK Health Workers Jailed For Abusing Elderly Patient by Obagreatdatoye(m): 9:16pm On Dec 15, 2023
WorldRichest:
This is very wrong of the court.

Since the elderly woman has died due partly to the maltreatment by the criminal health workers (though not specified in the report), the criminals should have been charged for manslaughter and sentenced to at least 20 years imprisonment
Go and sentence them now.
Your sister or brother will surely be the next to prison.

epainos:
The human body is tough and can take junk, and it can easily return to its original form as soon as the right conditions are met. The only wahala is when there is a blockage at the end of nerves or tiny locations. Of course, before such blockages occur, the body must have been seriously abused. Also, another wahala is when there is an organ defect that needs replacement. And finally when there are gene issues which is always the choice of protein and carbs we eat.

It will only take a second for that big strong thing of yours to go flat. And as soon as it occurs, that is it. It only takes something to happen to your prostate and then, you will understand what it means to eat noodles.

Keep eating your noodles. I pray you pass 45 years if you are a late millennial. It's not even rice or spaghetti ooo....noddles. grin

Don't worry.... 40 years ....just 40. When you pass that...come and insult me.

Read the bolded part in your post....one day, you will reflect and say.....yes...na me use my hand do myself cos dem tell me concerning this noodle...and it was my choice. It is always late for people who argue and defend their choices. In fact, it is hard to convince adults....dont worry....keep eating your noodles. To me... it is not my call to call you a glutton...you just don't know the consequence of your actions...but you will pay for it dearly. It is just a matter of time.

Best of luck!
You might even die before him ...that's the irony of life...
