Tamihawtt87:
you are right. Its upfront they pay and last i heard from the last intake...entry level upfront was about 4m after confirmation. Salary was about 300k per month(basic plus meal allowance). Not sure if its still same or will be reviewed by 2018 but those figures show why its like blood and sweat to get in there. Again, That is what i heard from last intake..i don't have further info about salary scale. If entry level gets that, you know EH will def be getting more. Seasons greetings..

But something tells me dat this Godwin sef, e be like say na dem again. His head is just one kind, but certainly not a Deltan. Deltans don't get themselves involved in these kinds of pranks.

Loluores:


Lol, omo I no know say I call you oh... but at least you don know the place where your name from derive nah


Acshually, to correct my analysis, e be like say palaver na from the Portuguese version palavra (with 'v') instead of the Spanish one with 'b', dat suppose dey more accurate historically.

I see a lot of speculations in here, well DPR is trying to work out easier ways or measures as to how the interview should go. Guess they don't want it to be as clumsy and tight as the last interview(2012). There would be different interview centers, as staff are already working that out now, but what I do not know is whether or not they would give stipends to those coming from outside Lagos or generally as NNPC would usually do. The last interview was conducted in a building with about 3 to 5 different Interview panels, but it's not going to be the case this time around.. And just so you all know they are not taking 300 or 400 or 500 as most pple talk or think, it's 750 in all (250 OND's and 500 GT's and EH's)...
I am not sure of what to say about those with portal closed, some got msg/email, some didn't and yet the portal is still opened (personally I did not get the msg/email and my portal is very much alive) so what do we say about that? Something about this whole process still remains shrouded in secrecy,(even to most dpr staff) I guess you should wait for the invites to start rolling out first then ur status would be known. It's better to wait, stay mute, than to just give yourselves HBD as a result of speculations.

Only about one tenth will remain on this platform when the interview invites start coming in. Someone here said they shortlisted 3500 pple for the interview, I laugh, if only you knew(have you heard of STANDARD MERIT)? you should take a stroll to their headoffice to get clarification on that.Do you really think they have that strength? well, do not loose hope, stuffs happen and things change. Who knows you could be favored.God has the final say. Good morning.

fatymore:
you know we have a flexible mind.. Just try and show her care. Let her know you love her.. Whenever she gets angry don't talk..just calm your nerves down.. My mum can be annoying sometimes. Before I do reply her back but now I keep mute, don't argue with her at the end I say sorry.. Most importantly I do things before she says it to avoid her getting angry. But believe she loves you and would surely break her heart if you move away.. Good morning

ufuosman:
Doctors and nurses like doing things like dis, some will ask for police report or deposit first. 99percent don't value life. Why can't dey start treatment and call police themselves. They just waste the young man life. The people dat shot him will die dis November IJN, Amen

Loluores:
Lol, funny thread. But make I just use dis time take clarify some language tins for una (no mind me oh, I be real boti but make I try speak small pidgin).

Anyways though, the vocabulary of the Nigerian Pidgin is predominantly from English. A number of words come from different languages across Nigeria though, which means that you probably have some words in your own dialect you use when speaking pidgin. An Igbo person is more likely to use "Nna ehn" than anybody else. Or a Hausa would say "dat one, ba?" Warri will say "Guy kpom, I hol bar, mek we just va go lanson."... don't ask me what that last sentence means oh

Some other words were introduced into pidgin from other languages like Portuguese, Dutch, French, even from Saõ Tomé, way back when the language was developing during like 5 or 6 centuries from now due to contact with different people that landed on our shores from Lagos to Warri (I hail una oh, the headquarters of Pidgin ) to PH to Calabar. The origin of some of them is quite interesting:

Pikin is from Portuguese peqeño (little, small, little kid)

Va or Vamoose is probably from Spanish (or should I say Portuguese, I'm not so sure) ¡Va! or ¡Vamos! (go, let's go)

Boku is from French beaucoup ((very) much/many)

Sabi is from Portuguese saber (to know)

The older pidgin word palaver is probably related to Spanish palabra and the Latin parabola (word, story, parable)

The words yeye and kuku (or kukuma) in pidgin are of Yoruba origin, that is undisputable. It's a wonder you guys even debated that one at all. At least, the way yeye is pronounced is phonologically close to Yoruba.

The Yoruba word yẹ̀yẹ́ is a noun which is sometimes used as an adjective to qualify other nouns. It means unseriousness or frivolous amusement. It could also be derogatory, with meanings like nonsense, rubbish, useless, silly/ridiculous. It's definitely not the same word that you find in some Yoruba names nah, how will that even be possible? The tone marking is different as you can see in a name like Adéyẹyè which is from Adé yẹ oyè as someone has already explained above.
The argument that yeye is from an Igbo word eyiye that looks like it has a similar meaning to the Yoruba word yẹ̀yẹ́ easily lends fuel to our tendencies in Nigeria here to start stupid tribalistic I-claim-dis I-claim-dat fights. There's no point in doing that. I don't speak the Igbo language. But it's a well known fact that both languages are linguistically related. A number of words in both languages are cognates; they are related. Such as the word for cat (olóńgbò, ólógbo), or the sentence "I am in the house", in both languages: "M nọ̀ nímé ụ́lọ̀" = "Mo wà nínú ilé". Whether yẹ̀yẹ́ and eyiye are indeed cognates is for the linguistics scholars to confirm, I simply don't know.

Kúkú is what is called a pre-verbal adverb in Yoruba, which is an adverb that is located before the main verb. Other Yoruba examples include tètè (early, quickly), ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ (just (with reference to time)) and kọ́kọ́ ((at) first). See how these words have two identical syllables just like kúkú has. Kúkú doesn't have one single meaning. Some of its meanings include: rather, anyway, indeed, just (not referring to time in this case), even, etc... depending on context. It has more or less the same meanings in pidgin.

Una is straight from the Igbo second-person plural subject or object pronoun únù, meaning you (all), no need to even debate that one.
