Why Do Shell Workers In Portharcourt Act And Look Posh And Sophisticated by Ilamina(op): 7:29pm On Jun 19, 2019

Shell kids in secondary school days in Nigeria

Were always arrogant
They think they were more exposed and sophisticated than the rest of us

They never really used to visit their classmates outside shell
But people used to visit them all the time during the holidays

I am glad I never visited them in that shell
I used to laugh at the rest

They used to stand by the gate for hours
The people they are visiting aren't even excited about their visit

But shell kids do act posh, I like their swag, not all though

Shell is truly a blessing to Nigeria

I don't think your observation is correct.
The parents of the kids are middle class and they will want to protect their kids from the evil that comes with allowing children to run loose.

The children might actually want to go out and visit their school mates, but the parents will want to supervise such visits. Drop the children off at the place of the visit, know who they are visiting, know why they want to visit such a person and things like that. Those additional barriers created by the parents might simply prevent the children from visiting other children frequently.

They are middle class but they get to live in a more organized and sophisticated environment

It's like living abroad but not as cool as abroad

And my parents too were careful with the kind of friends I visited and usually dropped me in my friends house

They just like to mingle with their fellow shell people

Its natural. Birds of the same feather flock together.

Do you expect the middle class children to mingle with Diobu children and be introduced to negative vices?

You are just unnecessarily curious and want to know what's happening outside World.

Let me start with this, the criteria for securing a job in Shell system is absolutely different from what u see around, you may ask your parents what it was like securing that seat and subsequent process of retaining the position.

SPDC system is sensitive to so many factors, environmental influence, security sense, safety sense and accountability among others, and would do anything to sustain her integrity around those factors.

There are shell staff and there are contract staff.. But sincerely, 70% of those occupying the seats in IA are contract staff. U may want to find out where your parents belong..

Shell staff are well inducted into Shell system without a choice. They are more or less an asset to SPDC and their safety and security is a core value. It is on this note that all their dependant has equally becomes a secondary asset to the company too. There are professionals from various countries around the globe employed to foresee safety and security of asset, these people operate with policy which is deemed best to keep their responsibilities uncompromised.

They came up with ideas to operate outside Nigerian system after they observed a glitch in our own safety and security system.

Access control as a fraction of security system is not left out. There re chances of people being kidnapped on their way to churches, market, clinic and so on. By extension, we once had a case of Shell staff that was called out of his house around 7pm and he left casually telling his cousin living with them he was coming back soon.. He wasn't found, only for his corps to be recovered after 8days.

The investigation revealed he was called out by a lady, probably one of his side chicks and he was held there for few days withdrawing with his ATM cards since they couldn't draw huge amount in just one day before he was finally killed. U can confirm this from your parent if he or she was in the system then..

We equally had case of a cousin living with a shell staff, he connived with armed men to kidnap his own uncle.

So, with these occurrences, shell system do not trust Nigerians and Nigeria as a whole.

Safety and security of staff, property and asset is a core priority.. And there are so many documents signed by your parents indicating you as his or her dependant, that's why you must come to IA clinic for your medicals, and there are commitments to these process from your parents through compliance with the policy which states some of those things.. Your dependant must not visit places suspected to be unsafe, your dependant must not do this and that..

So, there are more to this things than your parents can actually tell.. Just know that as a shell staff dependant, you are a secondary asset to the company and it a priority of the company to ensure safety of lives, property and asset of the company as the case may be. Your parent is committed to these safety through compliance with all the policies raised to aid goal zero.

Just face front and stop digging into what is not necessary.. Everything you want is there in RA. Lovely gardens and serene environment, sport and gym, even club at a very nice design. Hospital, swimming pool, internet access and so on..

Some of those freedoms you clamour about often leads to destruction and regrets.
