For the quantitative aspects, any idea if calculators allowed?

If they didn't want us to use calculators I think they would have made it known

Abasbby:

Test Assessify

latestmata:
Good Evening everyone, before starting the test, i was told to take a snapshot of me with my id card but i only have the softcopy of my improved NIN slip, how did you guys do it for those who have completed the test, thank you

If you have any other means of identity apart from your NIN slip, use it. They didn't specifically say that NIN slip should be used. Besides there's no way your NIN slip will fit into that capture box

Top2real:
How was the test questions?

They were all okay, except the last 5 questions, the diagram part.

I just gambled the answers.

amiberry3000:
To me o, personally

Might be more than that though, that was just my guess

TSoul:
Can I still apply?

I think applications are closed already, check using the link in the original post

Midemartha:
Any idea of the kind of questions
Is it verbal, quantitative and current affairs?
Which material did you use to study please?

The questions were divided into 4 sections:

1. Quantitative
2 and 3. Verbal reasoning (Passage, Statement and Argument, Statement and Conclusion)
4. Logic (diagrams)

No current affairs!

I didn't use any study material(s).

amiberry3000:
Any idea what the pay is?
Risking that Abuja travel better be worth it

Not sure what the pay is worth, but I'm guessing it should be around 150K and above.
I still think the Abuja Assessment Center is just to scare candidates away, just doesn't make sense.

Just took the test and it was Okay... Hoping for the best

amiberry3000:
Any idea what to expect in the test?

Should be 50 questions in all, Numerical, Verbal reasoning, logic. Just workforce kind of questions

Pathetic!
When Modric won the award undeservedly last year, there were no such claims.
This is just a fabrication of Messi haters.

otijah:
We have just witnessed another daylight fraud by Fifa again. What in God's name did Messi won to deserve that award. Van dijk and Alison was far much better than Messi this year only that football doesn't honor goalkeepers.

just listen to yourself!

How can you claim Van Dijk and Allison were better players than Messi last season?

On an individual level, nobody came close to Messi. If Van Dijk had won the award, then Sergio Ramos and Pique who have performed better than Van Dijk consistently for years now should have been winners too!

Over 7,000 teachers in public primary and junior secondary schools in Kogi State have appealed to Gov. Yahaya Bello to look into the issue of non-payment of their salary for the past 8 to 39 months.

The appeal was contained in a communique issued at the end an emergency meeting of the Basic Education Staff Association of Nigeria (BASAN) held in Lokoja on Monday.

The group traced the teachers plight to the staff screening exercise the government embarked upon since 2016 , lamenting that the affected teachers had been begging to feed themselves and family members.

The communique signed by Mr Onotu Yahaya and Mr Mohammed Sule, Acting Chairman and Secretary of the Kogi State chapter of BASAN also bemoaned the refusal of the state government to fully implement the N18,000 minimum wage to teachers in the basic education sector.

Onotu and Sule stated that their counterparts in the senior secondary school cadre and other state government staff had started enjoying the N18,000 minimum wage since Dec. 2011 , wondering why teaching and none-teaching staff at the basic education sector were not being fully paid.

The communique urged the government to put a stop to the payment of 35 -50 per cent salary to its members , insisting that they deserve full payment of salary like other workers in the state.

” Several of the basic education staff retirees are yet to access their monthly pensions besides non-payment of their gratuity ,” the statement said.

It also raised concern over the poor state of basic infrastructures in schools across the state, warning that the development was an impediment in meeting the desired productive curriculum delivery.

” We are passionately appealing to Gov. Bello for intervention on the above inflammatory issues for the ‘change’ mantra of the next level and change of narrative of this critical sector of education,” the communique added.

What really causes gas cylinders to explode

*Most times it is caused by gas leak from the cylinder. Gas cylinders have expiry date.
This is one thing a lot of people don't know.

*The hose that the gas flows through are manufactured with a lifespan of 5 years.

* Cylinders should be placed where there is ventilation.

* while carrying a cylinder that still has gas in it one should try as much as possible not to shake it and you should also drop it carefully.
