Kudos olumide4christ, please can you give me an estimated cost of laying a foundation of a storey building ( 4 nos of 2 bedroom flat each, 2 flat up and 2 down

deltateam:

Please I need more information on fixed deposits. What is the minimum amount one can fix? Must one have an account with the bank to do it?

i heard some banks collect 500k minimum, not sure though, but 100k is the minimum that i am aware of,
you must have an account, because that's where they will pull the money from for fixing and also where they will credit the interest as well

pompido:
Great stuff...
I tried to bid for the Tbills this morning and my bank told me it was already closed so I opted for a time deposit and they came back with a 4% p.a rate
Well, the actual plan is to do this for like 2weeks and terminate in time for bidding for the November 5th Tbills sale.
Please keep enlightening us on other investment avenues and updates on calendars and such infos would be great.

friends and colleagues from every part of the nation and some of my best friends are not even from my side of the country.

However, recent events are making me to have a deeper reflection and I wish we- Southerners in this instance- can have some kind of introspection. Out of 25 appointments made so far, 18 are from the North, 3 are from the South West, 4 are from the South South while the South East has ZERO appointments. A tweet which I saw today stated that “southerners are only competent when it’s time for elections but northerners are competent in terms of governance” and this made the following thoughts run through my mind:

1. Only Southerners have been accusing fellow Southerners of corruption. Oshiomole has been attacking Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala as if Ngozi turned down his marriage proposal. The same Oshiomole tried to make nonsense of Akinwumi Adeshina’s successes in the agriculture sector. Ambode tried to pull Fashola down and successfully smeared him with stains. Maybe that’s why Fashola did not get the Chief of Staff role. I’m yet to see a Northerner accuse another Northerner of corruption, even when they belong to different parties. The closest a Northerner got was when the new Kano State Governor attacked Rabiu Kwankaso but he quickly sheathed his sword and even disowned previous reports of attacks. Why are we like this?

2. Are Southerners the only ones who are corrupt? Were there no northerner heading the ministries and parastatals? Did the outgone Comptroller-General of Customs, Abdullahi Dikko not have an alleged case of certificate forgery but he still served out his tenure until he resigned voluntarily? I’m not in support of corruption under any guise but the fight against corruption must not be seen to be sectional.

3. How come it’s easier for the President to believe that Sanni Abacha was not corrupt in spite of recovered loot while it is so easy for him to believe Goodluck Jonathan is irredeemably corrupt?

4. I still remember that aside from God, Tinubu made Tambuwal what he is today. The same Tambuwal would later call Femi Gbajabiamila ‘incompetent’ and rated Dogara as more competent. The same Tambuwal was propped up by Tinubu, a Southerner against a fellow Southerner, Mulikat Akande. Obasanjo was very key to denying Goodluck Jonathan a second term. A good number can still recall how OBJ tore his PDP membership card in public glare. The Northerners find it easy to support themselves but we are always pulling ourselves down. Babangida Aliyu, Sule Lamido and all the other Northern Governors including the former PDP Chairman Adamu Muazu often times refused to campaign for Goodluck Jonathan openly and many times even espoused the virtues of the opposing candidate on the rostrum!

5. Southern leaders and Presidents pull down Southern business men but prop up Northern ones. How many people still remember how Obasanjo ran Mike Adenuga out of town but both Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan made Aliko Dangote what he is today. No northern leader goes against their own. I dare to put it on record that President Buhari will never go against Aliko Dangote for any reason.

6. How come OBJ pardoned Salisu Buhari, the ex-Speaker who forged his credentials and he later was given an appointment as a Governing Council member of a University and heavens did not fall- but when Goodluck Jonathan pardoned Alamieyeseigha it became one of the major issues counted against him? Is there one rule for some and another rule for others?

7. We find it easy to raise our voices in support of the deportation of Buruji Kashamu but have no qualms with Atiku Abubakar strutting around the corridors of power.

8. Only Southerners find it so easy to abuse their elders when they voice opinions not in tandem with the popular opinion. We find it easy to diss Afenifere elders and call them ‘Afenifebi’ while hurling expletives and curses at them. We even abuse our kings and priests. Northerners will never abuse an Emir no matter how unpopular what he said is. Can you imagine any Northerner raising his voice against the Sultan? In spite of Tanko Yakassai, Balarabe Musa and Dangiwa Umar’s perceived support for Jonathan, northern youths did not abuse them. But our own youths run down our elders on social media while our educated elite also support the act.

These are some of the thoughts that have been running through my mind. I don’t pretend to have all the answers and I do this at the risk of being labelled an ethnic bigot. The point however is that Southerners have to get their acts right. We have to put our house in order. The bickering must stop. Let’s engage our emotional intelligence. Let’s not allow others to exploit our tendency to self-destruct.

brilliant observation. I think you should open a thread for this interesting piece.

Are these really children, because they seem like dwarfs to me.
funny anyway.

I find it difficult to believe that a professional worker will call a customer a goat( a lady for that matter) in a professional environment and in the presence of other customers. This Eden lady might just be trying to get back at d bank employee for other reasons she is not stating.

some of us here knows this lady might be giving false accusation but still supporting her because of the tedious process we sometimes go through in the bank.
Maybe he did call her a goat and maybe he didn't, as long as you were not there when it happened and there is no video/audio recording online to confirm it, it is wisdom to give people the benefit of doubt. It could be you and how would you feel when you are been condemned by people for what some person(s) wrote or said about you that may not be true.
FYI, i am a doctor, not a banker.

My girlfriend said the same thing last week when i ended our relationship, but unto say i don't give a damn, who cares

When i saw my nysc deployment on the notice board in my skool then, i cudnt believe my eye's, after somedays i was still trying to figure out if SO stands for only sokoto, or they wanted to write OS (osun), most pple laffed at me, my parents were like i told u to work ur transfer and u refuse, saying u don't know wat God has install for u, my younger ones were playing Psquare song" asamkpokoto, so many mockery from all sides'. I gathered liver and i went for camp, the rest is history and today i have a good job while most of frends are still struggling for peanut jobs, some even gave me their Cv incase of any opening so i cud help them submit in same sokoto they were teasing then.

@ Sunylatsega, the town is safe, infact its one of the most peaceful state in the country, hardly hear about crimes like arm robbery, kidnapping is a No No, very good roads, infact 2am in d morning is like 9pm in sokoto, very busy at night, and in terms of entertainment, the place dey try, there are clubs, cool joints, really beautiful places where u can enjoy yourself. Like i mentioned earlier, the only issues here are the distance and the very hot and cold weather

Welcome to city of the caliphate, it's a nice place actually, most of u guys may want to stay after completion of nysc programme, getting a job here is not as competitive as getting one in the other parts of the country. Take it from someone who came to serve at sokoto batch c11 in a bank and was retained thereafter. The state is not as scary as southerners think, the only issue is distance from one's home town, I am a bini guy from Edo state for instance, dats 14hrs drive on road, so most times I take flight or use my personal car.
Mind u I don't intend spending my entire life here. Just wanna build a life and den redeploy to south or beta still Abuja,
Note that it's better to get a job here and transfer to another location in d future, than serving in South where job is far more difficult to get. Most of my friends in same batch c11 had jobs after nysc completion

My experience though.

Pls how can i subscribe to Mtn Bis on blackberry Z10?

Please pm me too.
thanks

Cool
