nice 1 bro, kano on my mind

Think twice oh, 'cos dey even see you Muslims from here as infidels. Not everything that glitters is gold oh.

erayo2GCA:


shut up your mouth there, as if more than 100% Muslim are not doing it (fornication, adultery, indecent dressing, alcohol consumption, blasphemy) i have lived in the same compound with muslims from the north all they know how to do is to take Codeine, Rohypnol, Diazepan, Tramadol, crack, weed, excessive smoking of cigarette, hashish, fornication, womanizing and all sort of social vices just name it. i'm not talking about just 10 or 15 Muslims guys i'm talking about 200 and above because the compound is a 3 storey building with more than 45 apart (sitting room, living room, kitchen etc ) some of them can be up-to 16 person in one apartment, the girls covering themselves like masquerade is worse because they are all LovePeddler. if you like believe if you like don't, i have said my own. it what i saw in Accra and HNAUB

Who be this MUMU

mrphysics:

Did you serve in sabon gari?

if that is the case, better change urctopic to sabon gari, that is not the only place in kano, if u Knw other towns in kano are bad, then u should HV opened a thread highlighting the benefits of service g in sabob gari, not the whole state.

Chriswazo:


, there goes our apriko master! continue looking for 40 naira tomatoes and 10 naira pepper,
Segunk1, call others may d come see how free things wan carry our guy.
But excuse o, I am still ccontemplating between Kadunna and Kano ooo, hmmm! I c u are made up already.

Lol, far frm dat.....
Mehn I dn decide for north o, kd is OK sha bt some parts are not safe for now (esp southern kd)....make I cover my mouth b4 dem arrest me like Audu Maikori

I can agree with everything you said, except the state allowee issue.

They have been promising us that since last year but we are yet to receive a penny from them, in February they conduct a head count to ascertain the exact number of corps members serving in kano, as if kano state nysc didnt know the total number of corps members serving in kano, uptill now we haven't receive any penny .

During our jac lecture at Bichi zone on 30th March, the nysc speaker's told us to have hope that they are still compiling a comprehensive lists. My question is, how long will it take them to compile their so called comprehensive list?
If they truly intend to pay us, why can't they use the federal style?
Now we have about 6 days left and we are still told that there is hope?

So, as far as I am concern kano state is not paying any state allowance until they do so in the next 6 days, I will always maintain that they are not paying a kobo.

Jiang:


Herdsmen are a mixture of different religion, besides they NEVER ATTACK just like that, its not like " hey let's burn down that village & kill every on" they just walk around with them cows, if you no touch them & thier cows. They will not even come close to you or ur farm unless by accident. in that case they are more than willing to apologize & pay the damage done by their animal's

plz and plz Dnt lie that lie, check my profile, I frequent the south a lot, there was once an incident in delta state last 2 years were herdsmen destroyed some farms, believe u me, there was no provocation from any1, they just entered d farm, ate sweet maize and left, only to threatened the owners with death.
Trust our deltan bros to deal with the ish Warri style.


That aside, u paint it as though the violence in kano and other parts were caused by us, if an ijaw man in the north says fork Islam, why should it. The Igbo's, urhobo and any other ppl that get killed, the whole nexus of the ish is, weda we like it or not, the north is volatile and unstable, and that stems from the fluid nature of sharia law.

Peace, e go be.

noziz:



Jesus! 2k? sorry what is FCE? cud u send me your email? i want us to chat privately.

Hahaha bros that 2k can take care of your tomatoes, pepper, onions, and even groundnut oil for the month.

Took the word right outta my mouth..

I live in kano

mrphysics:
This might sound as a shock against the popular belief people have. Well, I will be passing out on Friday, 7th April, 2017. Having been in NYSC scheme for a year, I think I am in the best position to make my analysis. Well, so many persons believe that Abuja and Akwa Ibom state will be their first and second choice for NYSC, but the truth is that, Kano state is actually better than the duo state. Here are my humble submission.

State Allowance
Unlike what it used to be before, Akwa Ibom is no longer paying the N10,000 monthly allowance to corps members, same as Abuja, and hence there is no need going to these states. While N5,000 in Kano is equivalent to N20,000 in Abuja and Akwa Ibom, i wonder why anyone will not go for Kano. Kano state has started paying corps member, they started with this Batch A who are about to pass out. Hence, since N5000 in Kano is equivalent to N20,000 in Abuja and Akwa Ibom, choosing the two state is to live a life of no savings during the service year.

Place of Primary Assignment
If you are looking for a good place to be during your service year, then Kano state should be your first choice. With lots of industries using NYSC labour, Kano state has proven to absorb more corps members than most other states. As a commercial city, Kano has become a home to numerous corps members who have gotten a work or gotten themselves in different business while serving their country.

Cheap Food
Let's just say that, a sachet of water is still sold for N5 in Kano, a cup of beans sold for N40 in Kano, these prices is what you will never get in Abuja or Akwa Ibom. My colleagues serving in both states have been crying, that though some PPA's pays N10k, it becomes useless as the purchasing power of money is low in the two states. I still buy my tomatoes for N40, pepper N10, and Onions N10, these items will be in good quantity except if you are serving in Sabon gari where Igbo's and Yoruba's dominate for business purposes. Things are relatively cheap over here and there is no way your N19800, won't remain at the end of the month.

Security
For one year that I have been in Kano, I can tell you that we have enjoyed a peaceful atmosphere and everything has been going well. The NYSC officials has been great in the affairs of corps members. You are highly respected by the people for being a corps member and they regard and respect your security. Just go with your I.D card and you are always safe anywhere.

Development
So many persons who have not being to kano think that the city is not developed simply because it is located in the north. The reverse is the case. The truth is that, Kano is more developed than Akwa Ibom ( I have been to this state severally), Enugu, and other states. The infrastructural development in Kano beats that of kaduna, so feel free, you are coming to the biggest city in the North.

Light
Well, let me say that Kano State enjoy constant light. And it is even better when serving in the village. Some corps members do not pay for light, while others pay as low as N100. Unlike what is obtainable in Abuja and Akwa Ibom. My colleague in Akwa Ibom and Abuja always complain about light, though it may depend on which part of the state they are. But even if you stay in Kano village, just be assured that you will always have light.

From the above reasons, I urge 2017 batch A prospective corps members to avoid making mistakes their colleagues make by choosing Akwa Ibom or Abuja and end up crying on the long run. N19800 is too little to depend on, or even paying higher amount for nothing. You are choosing Abuja, can you afford the transportation? Abuja is not for N19800 corpers. You are choosing Akwa Ibom, can you feed yourself for a month with N19800 and still have a savings?.
If you finally make it to kano, and you are posted to the city, send me an email, I will link you up to a good PPA, especially those that would be posted to Gwale Local Government. Thanks and have a nice service year.

My self confidence is peak, I believe myself so much. Too bold to be a sheep. Not until the west and other developed societies around the world decided to drop religious fanaticism and focus on themselves, they remained in the dark ages.. Read up about the Renaissance.

I hope you to see the light my brother...

Chriswazo:
Mrphysics! you again who send u this time?, cos I know u were threatened by some kano locals d last time u ranted about Kano. Anyway I believe you, though I know the part of light was exaggerated, Kano is in Nigeria.
My only question to you bro is how safe is kano for igbos that lives outside sabon gari

Very safe.. . Especially in the LGAs outside the metropolis, life is like 50% cheaper in the towns outside the city and people there treat you like a king. All the people saying that your head will be cut off are lying. Bahaushe is the most peace loving person. All those crisis that happened before were perpetrated by criminals who want to take advantage of any situation to steal people's properties and these people exists in any part of the country. Just look at what happened in Ile-Ife, you can't use thaf to judge the place.

Op I know you ain't gonna be truthful but fellow nairalanders please can y'all mention 5 states in Nigeria that you can sleep and not wake up the following day? Kano is one of the state's in Nigeria that you can't see a white man walking freely without no police guards that's if there's any.

Have you been to the two places? You better stop lying. I will agree with you if you say Kaduna is more social than Kano.

godsonQS:
pls, it belittles a person wen u spread falsehood, there is no denying the fact dat kano is a gud option wenregistring for ur NYSC. But pls avoid lies at all cost. Am a serving corp member in kano state wit one of the govt parastatal, get this straight dere is nothing like state allowance not even 1NAIRA. But PPA giv ranging from 1200 like those in ministry of works, housing and transport. 1500 ministry of budget and planning, nothing in ministry of education, 2000 in kano polytechnic and all d above dont ve accommodation 4 corpers bcus d corpers are more than d available spaces. Other PPA giv tokens as much as 5k including schools. The only schools dat giv above that amount are Nasar acadmy, Abu hanifa, andal academy and the likesif u r lucky dere is accomodation in those schools. There is no pepper for 10Naira. Transport na die here o esp those keke. Pls dont let anybody decieve you make the choice you mind is out for.

There's pepper of N10. I am a kano man, you should stop spreading lies too. I don't know of the state alawee cos I did my service six years back.

Bros thanks for this useful info. Kano on my mind. i really nid where the cost of living is cheap cos the allawe is nothing to write home about. cud u suggest other states where cost of living is also cheap and viable opportunities? thanks once again

Gombe is another state you shud look out for..Are science or technically involved?

Fundamentalist:


What is scary about abstaining from immoral acts like fornication, adultery, indecent dressing, alcohol consumption, blasphemy etc.

If your beliefs are that of the christain religion , I see no concrete reasons why you should be afraid.

Immoral acts as mentioned above are strongly opposed by the christain bible. Its only if you want us to be hipocritic.

Dubai is an Islamic country too but one can have peace of mind over there then in Kano and co. Meaning there is a problem between the two scenario above. Separate religion from governance and make your laws accommodatting. Religion is not development nor a means to end hunger, food is cheaper in Kano but they are most poor then the rest. And so due to some fact available I distance myself from flashy- area of the North including Kano. If they want to go on religion aspect of government then the Nigerian constitution should be changed and restructured/independence of states, so that you decided what suits your people and the type of development you want to operate. That's the best way to solve it.

my friend shut up I am a serving corp member in Kano state precisely the ones that would be passing out next week Friday......kano is bleeped I repeat is bleeped,when posted der run 4 your dear life especially girls......you would be out from civilization....

I don't think there are any that offer such service. But there is a delivery outlet that handles pick ups and delivery in kano (I think they are the only one sef) "EMO delivery" iv used them a couple of times.

I don't even know how he wan order for the delivery with N19, 800. He don't need that cos he can get a very big goat for 8k and a matured sheep for 15k
