Empty dumb skull. You sit and conclude about something without even trying to find out the truth about the matter. The link below will cure your ignorance.

Not that I support the guy you quoted, but nothing in the video and the entire post proves that there is no "spirituality" involved.

The report says the police are yet to conclude the investigation. At the same time, the video showed that the women fell. From the video, the woman could have fallen due to being too high from drugs or alcohol. But then again, it could be more than meet the eye thingy, using alcohol or drug served to her as an agent.

How Nigerian Customs Service Withdrew appointment Letter From Female Applicant Over ‘Irrelevant Certificate’

A young woman, Akpevwe Ebresafe, has recounted how officials of the Nigerian Customs Service denied her a job opportunity which she claimed she was qualified for.

Ebredafe told SaharaReporters that she had passed through different stages of screening before she was later called for an acceptance letter at the Nigerian Customs Service office in Abuja.

She had applied for the position of a General Duty CUSTOM ASSISTANT CADRE II (CONSOL 03). NCS/C03/858948, which she claimed required a minimum of Junior Secondary Certificate Examination, JSCE.

It was also gathered that Ebresafe had passed a screening which was done for her in Owerri before she was notified to visit the Abuja office for her acceptance letter.

But the story changed when she got to the Abuja office where her letter was subsequently withdrawn because of a senior secondary school certificate.

The native of Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State also told SaharaReporters that the officials claimed she did not have a Senior Secondary School Examination Certificate and so could not be recruited for an application that required only JSCE.

She said, “After they gave me my serial number, I went inside and I was given an acceptance letter with a duplicate copy on which I wrote “Original Copy received by me Apevkwe Ebresafe” with date and signature. I went to the other man and he requested for my documents which I handed over to him.

“He also asked for my SSCE and I told him I did not have that and he said I should wait that he would need to show their madam. He went to their madam and then she asked about my SSCE. I told her I did not have it. She asked further about where I did my screening and I told her Owerri.

“She also asked for the position I applied for and I said General duty and she said; how am I qualified for the position? Then she said I should reapply again next see time that I was not qualified for the position I applied for.”

Hmmm.

What I learnt from arcane is, people ain't bad for no reason and they are ready to come into the light/good if their motivations is healed except a psychopath of course. We only complicate things by our confusion, thinking doing more of we that made them bad will solve the problem. Devil wanted power, boko haram the name says all but he get religious tone I don't want to start,make I no spoil film na why I use those examples.

Stop analyzing work of art base on good vs bad, movie like any work of art should be enjoyed. If at all you want do a review do normal review, not good vs bad.

For example, talks about loyalty of Silco and his gangs, friendships between Victor and Talis, power between Miss Medarda and her Mom, Heimerdinger unwillingess to embrace the good part of science, etc.

Or better still analyze the technical aspect like Directing, Cinematography, the production, the animation, etc.

Which one be devil, book haram blah, blah inside? Haba, everything no be Nollywood abeg.

This also indicates the level of ignorance at work, I sense a bad mentor at work. People in ss are cruising their way. If the person giving you advice is in gd, u are in trouble cause the advice in incomplete. U must talk with senior pp in ss and find out why the are still there
E go shock you, I repeat, eh go shock you wella.
Not all that glitter is gold
Food for thought, do your ground work wella to avoid regret.
I presume you are successful and have done documentation or about to do so. If not, stop ruining the life of those that there name came out in final list with your half-baked knowledge about Nigeria customs service

I don't think it's a bad mentorship, and I hope it's not bitterness.



On another note, can a SS rise to CGC?

InTheCloudySky:
Your post is too long.
Concision is the word.

As for the question, no one owes anyone sex, even in marriage. If a woman says no, that means no, even in marriage. Forcing her is called RAPE, even in marriage.

I like you, but the woman should not complain when the man start knacking other women.

Can someone change department? For example from support staff to general duty.

Why you wan move to general duty?

On top Ifo or Eela? Go buy cacatin.

No matter the amount of salary some money will still be deducted like pension, nhis, tax etc, the least salary in the agency is 120k which goes to level03, maybe dat's y they didnt include on the APL due to other agencies, @Doorman pls did you experience someone with similar to my issue dat was attended? I lost my original neco cert. but have the photocopy of d org. cert. with me and affidavit+police report, thanks.

You can also attach a result checking card to it.

famohold:
Myopic, its like saying a superintendent of police workin from office most times doesnt make as much as his boys that are posted to work outside d office, there is sth they call soft money. Its like accounts, procurement, stores, ict, maintenance is a joke to u. Also didnt u read about d officer that was commended for rejecting 150m bribe that was brought to his office for illegal dealings. This kind of million dollar dealings are done in d office not on d road side, so oga can easily call his boys ‘to order’ in case of trouble

Imagine saying the quoted amount no dey alright for a family man.

Let's even assume the salary reach that amount, cuz I don't know where he sees that amount from.

How many Nigerians sef dey earn close to it?
Many families in Nigeria still live on salary or income wey no pass 100k, did they die? Aren't they living well?

How many jobs dey give employees 500k per month except you're earning in dollars.
Make we na dey fear God nau.

But OP should tell us if he has rejected his appointment offer, i want to check something.

Yandex23:
This is right...

But do you know that one cannot afford a very comfortable lifestyle for the family with this pay... (e.g. send kids to private schools)

As a single man, the pay is alright

But as a family man, let it be known that you are just support staff and don't be deceived.. There is no GD privilege anywhere apart from the lucky few, what you get from the office is gonna be constant for 15 years and increase by very tiny for the rest years...

If you believe in yourself it's 100% better to start a business.
If you are very goal oriented, it is better to get a good private job
People earn 500k and above monthly at private firm

But all in all business sure pass

NCS is paramilitary and would lock you and your time down

this is for L08 only

Make Level 8 officers reject the job for a private firm or business, on to say your purported or imagine salary no pass the quoted amount, if at all e reach?


Well done, sir. Have you rejected your appointment offer?


I'm asking for a friend.

Anybody know anything about IEI Anchor Pension?

Macbenb13:
Abeg na four hundred and ninety five k. Thank you

You no see am well, or maybe e dey different. Na three hundred and ninety-six K

Okocha d best number 10 and skillful player ever in Nigeria history and since will are still looking for that 10 still now since retirement. But kanu and even Mikel obi was successful than him but d only difference from kanu and Mikel. Kanu beat Mikel in winning Africa best player twice while Mikel beat him Winning nation cup for Nigeria

Okocha was part of the 1994 African Nations Cup-winning team.

naptu2:
In fact, I'll just help you out. You cannot have a transfer in modern football (since the 1990s) without an agent. Only FIFA licensed agents are allowed to broker international transfers. JayJay Okocha had agents. In fact, this is public knowledge because there was a dispute between his agents over the transfer to Bolton.

Here's why I brought up the Robinho transfer. Football agents typically take care of the business side of things and if a player is not sharp, he might not know much about the club that he is going to because the agent will handle all the negotiations.

That's what happened with Robinho. He assumed that he was moving to Manchester United, but his agent had actually brokered a deal with Manchester City.

In the case of Okocha, his agent was Sports Management Services Ltd (SMS). However, he used another agent for the transfer from Paris to Bolton. That company was Sports Player Management Ltd (SPM). This led to a dispute between SMS and SPM and SPM petitioned FIFA that SMS had hijacked their player.

Just search for the details. I remember it very well.

On Robinho, I thought it was Chelsea, not Man Utd.

naptu2:
Do you remember Robinho's transfer to Manchester City? What did he say about the transfer?

Even Lukaku to Man Utd.

Impregnable101:
Seriously dude?! Jay Jay never played for money? Someone that snubbed Ferguson & Manchester united for a small club like Bolton because Bolton were offering him 80k pounds while Manchester united wanted to pay 50k pounds? He gave up numerous medals & personal accolades because of 30k pounds difference. He could've won African footballer of the year if he'd joined Manchester united. The dude made the wrong decision.

Perhaps his reps, not him. If they had advised well, he would have chosen Man U.

So if this man die today, which of the children will takeover the family company?

Mr. Eazi nau. Shebi, all the girls, including the first one from the first wife no wan marry all in the name of the modern woman.


But certainly, the girls noni. They would just employ experts to take over or monitor the activities of their father's wealth till they can grow into it and understand the game.
They might not expand the wealth though.

I understand you. Romantic love does not sustain marriage. The only thing that can sustain marriage is mutual benefit because two people are involved and only when the two people involved in marriage; husband and wife are benefitting some or all of the things they hoped for and desired for before agreeing to enter that marriage, that's the only thing that can sustain marriage; mutual benefits (husband want respect, sex, homekeeper, peace of mind and he's getting it, wife wants steady money, good sex, emotional care, assurance, etc and she is getting it) thats the only thing that can sustain marriage. so as a husband or wife, you must continually reevaluate yourself and check if you are meeting some or most of the things that convinced your wife or husband to marry you, if not, the marriage is headed for doom because whatever love you both claim to share will definitely fade away as resentment sets in due to unmet expectations.

You are stereotyping marriage as if it's one business. Most people (if at there is any) don't revaluate marriage like a yearly business. Peopls get divorce based on emotions, which is still built on Romantic love.

If it is "mutual benefits", people would see marriage just like business transactions, and many would get less emotional about it. But till tomorrow, people based on emotions, and will still divorce based on emotions.

Romantic love is usually based on certain qualities (physical beauty which is based on individual perception of what beauty means to him or her, character, etc).

Romantic love is not just about physical attraction alone. If it's, everybody would love those they find most physically attractive.

Going by your example, even if Churchill loved Tonto Dikeh, it couldn't have saved the marriage still. Romantic love dies, forget the lies mainstream media or popular opinion say about love in marriage, it can die with time or due to some reasons.

One sided love will not save a marriage, but if both Tonte and Churchill love each other, they would find a way.

Nobody just wakes up to love anybody unconditionally, there is always a reason why people love someone romantically more than others to push them to marry them.

Whatever the reason is, it is not just about "physical beauty."

There is nothing like unconditional love, it doesn't exist. Even mothers can hate their child if the child possess some negative qualities they never wanted after birth, reason you hear that a mother threw away her newborn baby, etc.

Sure, we all love people because of our selfish reasons.

Romantic love does not sustain marriage.

It is the most potent of all the things that try to solve marriage.

And who told you Churchill doesnt have things he looks back at and smile for marrying Tonto? If he married her for fame, he got it, everybody now knows about him unlike before.



If Ned Nwoko married Regina Daniels for fame, he has achieved it and will never feel foolish should the marriage end tomorrow.


In conclusion, remember my initial point that romantic love should never be the only reason anybody should marry anyone; it's not enough.

As I said before, nothing sustains a marriage that doesn't want to be sustained. Of all the things that try to sustain a marriage, Romantic love is still the most potent.

Otherwise, what will have in general is just "Marriage with benefits" in the sense of "friends with benefits" we normally talk about, or the "no strings attached."
But we all know that's not how marriage works. Does it?

TheOnlyUyai:
Yes, I will marry a man that loves me more than I love him if that's what you mean. Love is just a facade.

You sound contradictory. Are you just trying to form woke?

Or you don't know the meaning of facade?
Why will you care about love if it is just a facade?

franchasng:
You must have your personal reason that should convince you to marry someone. There can never be one reason that fits all individuals but you see romantic love, it should never be the only reason to settle with someone for life. it could be part of your reasons but should never be the only reason to.


We marry to achieve some personal life goals and desires like;

bearing kids

some not just bearing kids but bearing kids with certain features like tall, physically attractive, dark or light skin, ingelligent, smart, etc.

fulfilling the dreams of our parents to have grandchildren or heir for lineage continuation, etc


political gains or even for business ties.


for travel opportunities like marrying someone who has citizenship of our dream country we wish to emigrate to legally.


for financial support or gains.

For sexual needs and companionship.

for social growth like marrying a celebrity to help compliment your status or help grow your image.

For personal religious belief or reason.

and several other personal reasons.


So every individual should strive to ensure majority of his or her personal reasons for settling down are met so that if it turns south tomorrow, you will have some things to look back and be happy for.

To a certain extent, you're right, but without peace, all the things you listed won't be valued again.
Read the most appropriate response to your post by @irunoko:

"Some men marry because of big bom Bom or fine face .when they enter finish, and the woman shows her unpleasant character. e.g being disrespectful, gossiping, lousy, promiscuous, or lazy, the fine face won't matter again. issues begin to crop up, and you know the rest

Churchill is another example of a man who married for the wrong reasons, i.e., because of the celebrity status of Tonto Dike and her face. Later, he was the same person that would complain of her coming home drunk, smoking weed in the sitting room during pregnancy, violent tendencies-going to his workplace to destroy his properties, etc. Those are people who married for physical looks/sex without taking time to study the character and whether they are compatible with their ways /values."

Considering this reply, even if you marry for money, political gain, dream, etc when your partner begins showing "unpleasant character. e.g being disrespectful, gossiping, lousy, promiscuous, or lazy, the fine face (money, political gains, the dream country, etc.) won't matter again. Issues begin to crop up, and you know the rest.

So I still maintain that nothing sustains marriage. And of the things that try to sustain marriage " genuinely," Romantic love is still the most potent.
