Bauchi State, the pearl of tourism, home of peace and hospitality!
Governor : Governor Mohammed Abdullahi Abubakar Esq

Well this is for those that are thinking of coming to Bauchi State.

Created in 1976 Bauchi State with a land mass more than half the entire south west and almost twice the south east, is one of the 6 states of the north east (Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba, Gombe, Bauchi). It is significant to note that the state is very peaceful and insurgents free, despite its geographical location! It shares boundaries with Plateau, Gombe, Yobe, Taraba, Kaduna, and Kano states, because of this there is virtually no ethnic group you won't find in Bauchi!

Home to the Golden voice of Africa, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa the state has a number of higher institutions namely the Federal Polytechnic Bauchi, the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Bauchi (formerly Federal university of tech. Bauchi), college of education Azare, adult and non formal education kangere, the Bauchi State university with campuses at Gadau, Misau and Bauchi (the state capital) and the Abubakar Tatari Ali state Polytechnic. Any of which corps members can be posted to. Of course there are secondary and Primary schools too numerous to mention lol, spanning from zaki far north to bogoro at the extreme south!

Living costs are low, I mean as a student you can live on as low as 10k a month! Low cost of transport and food! A good self contained apartment may be obtained from 50k+ in the capital.

Not many manufacturing industries sadly but the few I know are working include steyr, where they assemble motorcycles and mini trucks, there is also the fertiliser company, an electrical wire factory, plus a few others I can't remember the names but definitely nothing close to what is obtainable in Kaduna, Ogun or Abia!

There is the yankari game reserve which has a very diverse and rich wildlife, not aware of clubs but am sure there are pubs here and there!

I will also confirm on the remuneration by the state govt but I don't think it's more than 5k.

If you want to meet new people, understand Nigeria better, behold the beauty of the northern damsel, love, laugh, learn the language, maybe even write a book about it lol, Bauchi is the place to be!

I was privileged to live in lagos for 3 months, and believe me it was a completely different world, from the bus conductor who shouts at you in yoruba for his money not knowing you have no idea what he is saying Lool.. to the passenger who stands up and preaches in the bus but then asks for offering lol... It was really nice!

So please before executing those plans of yours, get out of your comfort zone, explore new places, explore new people, new cultures, new languages, live a little! Explore Nigeria!




#Cheers

Good evening Fam...hope your day went well...

About Akwa Ibom State
Name of Governor: Emmanuel, Udom Gabriel
No of LGA: 31.
Akwa Ibom state is one of the state in the south south region of Nigeria. Created in 23rd September, 1987 the state has witness a lot of ups and down in its development. Mostly ups though..

Standard of Living: The standard of living of the state, I will say is medium. Houses are not too costly neither are they too cheap. Basic daily need items are available at a relative price. Price of food items are cheap as well.You can find a standard self contain apartment within the range of + or - #150k, in Uyo town. I don't know much about outskirts of Uyo

Economic Situation: Presently,the economic situation of the state is fairly Ok though government has not paid it's staff for some months now.

Social Status: The social status of the state is getting brighter year in year out.This is so because of the influx of people to the state recently. There are couple of clubs around the state and the night life is trying to pick up though it's still not so excellent. Also,radio stations like planet FM, Atlantic FM are available

Civilization: most cities in akwa ibom are civilized. From Uyo to Eket to Abak to Ikot Ekpene and some other major towns are civilized. Not everywhere is.

Electricity: It depends on the part where you stay in Uyo, there is constant light in some areas n then poor lighting in some other areas. I don't know what is the cause of that disparity.

Water supply: It is constant. In addition almost all houses can boast of borehole in their house.


Finally, to all PCM planning to come to Akwa Ibom for your service year, my source said that the state pays 10k except you are lucky to be posted to FIRS where you could be paid between 25-30k and some private firms too pay within that range, then you should also pray hard that you are not posted to local government councils cause sometimes they could pay as low as 5k in fact they pay just anything they feel like paying...I was told sha... But the least you can get is 10k except in the local government councils.
Transportation: It's quite affordable and Ok generally except during this fuel hiking period


Thank you all for your time to read this insight about Akwa Ibom State.
Yudeeaikay (Uyo).

Sorry this came in now was trying to make some findings so I don't give wrong info
DTOBS


I will suggest that we all do this for all PCMs in the house to have full knowledge of your state

Great Job Brother. Thumbs Up!

Harbioollah:
I schooled in Ogun, the capital, Abeokuta precisely. It is surrounded by Oyo, Lagos, Osun and Ondo. And it has a close proximity with Lagos and Ibadan.

They pay 5k monthly. But i think it's paid once at the end of service (60k). Ogun is fairly cheap and peaceful.

Transportation is easy and cheap. In abeokuta, they use green cabs/taxis which are many on the road and you can get fares from as low as N20. There are fairly good roads as there has been a massive construction of roads under the SIA government.
Accommodation is cheap, you can get self contained apartments from as low as 50 in Abeokuta . Electricity is improving in Ogun state but i have some mixed feelings about water. Depends on location also.

In Conclusion, Ogun is a nice state to stay. Just that somehow i miss the busy and noisy life of Lagos. But once you are there, do not forget to visit Olumo rock. You will learn about the history of the egbas and how they have been able to survive the many wars.


Btw, Are you from the Southeast or South South? Because security wise, that will be the only logical reason for choosing Enugu which is among the states riddled by the Biafran Protest. And with the way things are going now, i fear what may happen in the future. #My two cents.

Enugu was my second choice too. But that was before. The Southeast is out now for me. I'm still undecided about who to take in the North Central Region.

OGUN STATE...Review

For those of u planning to serve in OGUN STATE, u r welcome....we 15B will welcome u.


Ogun has 20 LGA...the worse..no...the worst, according to me is, Abeokuta South, (pardon me LORD...i am grateful for ur grace on me)... They see corpers as rich folks...put on ur kahki and b ready to pay more.

No light, the place is up hill...meaning water is big P...unless ur borehole is deep...all thanks to Nccf... And they reject like tomorrow no dey...though i wasnt rejected

in abeokuta south...all merchant, sellers etc wont open until u've gone to work...so, if u no sabi cook...OYO u dey... and no N20 T-fare here o....except u won walk the remain distance ursef....infact commerce here is similar to Lagos...only that Lagos is more developed and sellers open even b4 u go to work...and while u r coming back, u stil meet dem.


The Govt of Ogun state pays N0.0k.. So, if dem post u go govt office/parastatals OYO u dey...and if dem send u go public sch...same wahala...anyways, we all are service corps na....d motto is service and humility ...u may get accommodation for free sha...let's say 45% probability


Bt if dem send u go any private firm, ur salary and accommodation is 90% sure do maynt b much.


any oda place aside from abeokuta south is ok...eg e.g Lga closer to d border, Ijebu-water Side u'd be treated as kings and Queens... Bt X-: ...make una reach there first


then u av d villages e.g Owo, yewa south LGA...u'll b respected, cared for...bt hmmm u go here u r shut out of social life no browsing and calls = 40% chance...bt light dey steady for dos villages o ...infact abeokuta south wey b d state capital no fit stand dem.


Lastly, the camp is 5 star...so, make una no come comot one star there o ...and u receive lectures in d stadium.


Ogun is state is ok..peaceful and a nice place b...bt to enjoy all these...na village or any oda place aside from abeokuta south u fit get am ...


If na lie i lie...make d fellow serving corps members for Ogun state, abeokuta south, come talk am.


Ise Ya OMO OGUN ise ya..


Advice: anywhere u r posted "dont contend with ur creator"...dont work it...i am a testimony....

Here is a brief submission from me about Nasarawa State of Nigeria. Enjoy yourselves as you go through it based on popular demand.
Nasarawa is a state in central Nigeria . Its capital is Lafia .
History
Nasarawa was created on 1 October 1996 by the Abacha government from the (today neighboring) Plateau State.

Geography
Nasarawa State is bounded in the north by Kaduna State, in the west by the
Abuja Federal Capital Territory , in the south by Kogi and Benue States and in the east by Taraba and Plateau States .
A network of roads exist within the state, linking all the rural areas and major towns. The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) operates train services from Kuru, Gombe and
Maiduguri.
Local Government Areas
The State has three National Senatorial Districts (South, North and West).
Nasarawa State consists of thirteen (13) Local Government Areas.
Nasarawa West Senatorial District
716,802
Nasarawa North Senatorial District
335,
Karu 205,477 Akwanga 113,4
Keffi 92,664 Nasarawa Egon 149,1
Kokona 109,749 Wamba 72,89
Nasarawa 189,835
Toto 119,077

Economy
Concrete block factory is popular amongst the indigenous people of Nasarawa State.
Nasarawa State also has agriculture as the mainstay of its economy with the production of varieties of cash crops throughout the year. It is also contains minerals such as salt and bauxite.
Education
The state has a Federal Polytechnic in
Nasarawa local Government Area of the state, College of Education in
Akwanga , College of Agriculture in Lafia, Nasarawa State Polytechnic in Lafia, Nasarawa State University in
Keffi ,a newly established Federal University of Lafia in Lafia town, and other vocational training schools.
Tourism
Nassarawa state is home to the Farin Ruwa Falls in Wamba local Government area of the state. Farin Ruwa falls is reputed to be one of the highest falls in Africa.
There is also the Salt Village in Keana Local Government Area of the State. It produces naturally iodized salt from the lake located near it.The town is also the cradle of Alago civilization..
The state also pays #5000 as allawee as at the time of filling this report which Ofcourse cannot be said to continue as the civil servants are presently at logger head with the state government following the lack of payment of salaries by the government and the eventual accusation by the populace that the federal government's intervention was actually diverted to the funding of the state owned Airport which is due to take off this December.
Love you all as we prepare ahead of our readiness for National Service to humanity.

Ekiti is a state in western Nigeria, declared a state on October 1, 1996 alongside five others by the military under the dictatorship of General Sani Abacha. The state, carved out of the territory of old Ondo State, covers the former twelve local government areas that made up the Ekiti Zone of old Ondo State. On creation, it took off with sixteen (16) Local Government Areas (LGAs), having had an additional four carved out of the old ones. Ekiti State is one of the thirty-six states (Federal Capital Territory (Nigeria)) that constitute Nigeria. Ekiti State is reputed to have produced the highest number of professors in Nigeria. Several pioneers academics are from the state. Pioneers like Profs Adegoke Olubummo( One of the 1st Nigerian Professors in the field of Mathematics), Prof. Ekundayo Adeyinka Adeyemi(1st Professor of Architecture in Africa, South of Sahara). Others include renowned academics like Profs J.F. Ade-Ajayi, Niyi Osundare, Sam Aluko and others too many to mention.

Following a prolonged political crisis, President Olusegun Obasanjo imposed a military administrator (General Tunji Olurin) on Ekiti State in October 2006. On April 27, 2007 Olurin was replaced by Tope Ademiluyi. In the PDP primary of 2006, 1st-place finisher, Yinka Akerele and 2nd place Prof. Adesegun Ojo were supposed to be in a run-off to determine who would be the nominee of the Nigerian ruling party when President Obasanjo summoned them to Abuja and imposed the candidate who came third - Engineer Segun Oni. He was later elected in the 2007 election as the governor of the state in an election marred by widespread irregularities and the AC candidate, Dr. Kayode Fayemi challenged his election and forced a rerun in May 2009.[2]

The May 2009 rerun was characterized by even worse rigging and the election was disputed again. Eventually, after three years, the election of Oni was thrown out and Dr. Kayode Fayemi was declared the duly elected governor of Ekiti State.The State is mainly an upland zone, rising over 250 meters above sea level. It lies on an area underlain by metamorphic rock. It is generally undulating country with a characteristic landscape that consists of old plains broken by step-sided out-crops that may occur singularly or in groups or ridges. Such rocks out-crops exist mainly at Aramoko, Efon-Alaaye, Ikere-Ekiti,Igbara-odo- ekiti and Okemesi-Ekiti. The State is dotted with rugged hills, notable ones being Ikere-Ekiti Hills in the south, Efon-Alaaye Hills on the western boundary and Ado-Ekiti Hills in the centre.The State enjoys tropical climate with two distinct seasons. These are the rainy season (April–October) and the dry season (November–March). Temperature ranges between 21° and 28 °C with high humidity. The south westerly wind and the northeast trade winds blow in the rainy and dry (Harmattan) seasons respectively. Tropical forest exists in the south, while savannah occupies the northern peripheries. - Gotten from Wikipedia
