Why should gbajabiamila be responsible for the action of his security man? Why not sue the security personnel or his employer which is DSS? I don't see any case here for gbaja at all except I'm missing something.

Where did she says she paid 800 million? The accuser is the one that stated 800 million naira without any document to back it up.

Effective 20th feb.2020, NERC directed that energy consumption billing should be capped at a rate approved for business unit under DISCOs.
For instance, a resident of ketu which is under shomolu business unit with tarrif code R2TP was approved to be 321 at the rate of 21.8kwh. (321*21.8+7.5VAT).=7,522.8(monthly bill)
I received March 2020 energy bill and observed blatant disregard to [img]NERC[/img][img][/img][quote][/quote] directives on energy capping. I received unjustifiable bill of N11,717. I registered my complaint with NERC through their website.

‘1.4 million Nigerians’ applied for 5,000 Civil Defence jobs

Over 1.4 million Nigerians scrambled for 5,000 job openings advertised by the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), marking yet another testament to Nigeria’s acute unemployment.

Federal officials working on the recruitment process told PREMIUM TIMES this week that 1, 477, 042 million applications were received through the Civil Defence’s website at the close of submission on September 7, 2019. The online portal for 2020 recruitment opened on August 9, 2019, running for just a month.

Of the 1.4 million applicants, thousands would be selected to take part in the next stage of the recruitment process, PREMIUM TIMES learnt from officials who spoke under anonymity because the civil service rules prevent them from discussing official activities.

Those shortlisted would then face a series of written examinations to be conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). The Civil Defence, Fire, Immigration and Prisons Services Board (CDFIPB), a federal agency coordinating the recruitment, has already written to JAMB seeking the examination body’s cooperation in setting guidelines for the upcoming computer-based tests.

As part of the requirement for the job that pays above the N30,000 national minimum wage, thousands of shortlisted applicants would take questions similar to those set for candidates seeking admission into tertiary institutions in the country.

It was the first time that JAMB would be asked to set written examinations for candidates seeking Civil Defence jobs, PREMIUM TIMES learnt.

Looming battle

When the CDFIPB, a department under the interior ministry, first announced the exercise last year, it indicated that 10,000 people would be recruited into Civil Defence. The figure was consistent with annual intake for the NSCDC in recent years. The police also conduct a similar recruitment drive, taking in 10,000 officers and rank-and-file annually.

But shortly after application closed, the government started mulling over its ability to take as much as the 10,000 advertised, according to officials familiar with the situation.

“It was eventually decided the government could only make provisions for 5,000 new recruits,” an official said. “That was what was captured in the 2020 budget.”

While the hurried elimination of 5,000 potential employees unsettled a large number of applicants, the main battle could still lay ahead in the scramble for the remaining 5,000 openings, according to another official source.

Upon conclusion of the written exercise, political and business heavyweights with actual or perceived influence would start fighting to reserve slots for their hangers-on.

“We have already come under pressure from top political office holders and their spouses, top businesspeople, traditional leaders, senior academics and people who know people who work at NSCDC or the Ministry of Interior,” a senior official said. “We are already confused even at this early stage.”

The official said the outcome of the written examinations and other pre-qualification tasks that shortlisted candidates would participate in may not necessarily determine those that would make the 5,000 cut.

While many would be winnowed out by a set of rules that would render their applications invalid, a high number would still make it through the final stages, and those “with connections” may ultimately benefit, an official said.

“No one can summon the courage to tell a godfather in the presidency or a foremost traditional ruler that their candidate did not make the cut,” the official added. “So the battle is going to be between the elite.”

Then, members of the upper-class are themselves victims of the Nigerian situation, the official added.

“They are daily inundated with requests for jobs,” the official said. “Both the skilled and unskilled alike.”

The CDFIPB did not return request for comments about its recruitment practices.

‘National bane’

That more than 1.4 million Nigerians still applied for a paramilitary job in less than a month despite being restricted to only citizens between 18 and 30 underscored the national crisis dimension of unemployment in Nigeria, said economist Fatima Abubakar.

“Unemployment in Nigeria has become a national bane,” Ms Abubakar said. “This is a dimension the country cannot afford to sustain.”

The analyst said the situation with NSCDC reflects similar recruitment drives by other public and private institutions.

In 2019, over 500,000 citizens applied for 3,200 jobs at Customs. In 2017, 1.2 million applied for about 1,100 immigration jobs. Yet, neither came as a surprise. In 2016, nearly 800,000 Nigerians applied for 10,000 police jobs, leaving officials confused on how to shortlist candidates.

In March 2014, more than a dozen job seekers were killed in multiple stampedes that occurred at recruitment centres for immigration jobs. The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) had advertised 5,000 jobs that year and prequalification activities were held in multiple cities across the country.

Several years later, unemployment has soared, even as the country’s population continues to set new records. As of December 2019, unemployment stood at 23.1 per cent, per the statistics office, and projected to reach 33.5 per cent this year.

“The unemployment numbers keep rising and projected to get worse with alarming population growth,” Ms Abubakar said. “The government should prioritise policies that would lead to jobs in all sectors.”

Something still baffles me about South easterners when they talk about betrayal. how did yoruba betrayed jonathan in 2015 exactly?. Southwest gave jonathan 1.8m votes. buhari got 2.4 million votes. You still refers to 1.8million votes as betray? this beat me. The whole of South east gave jonathan 2.4 million and you are still shouting betrayals. It didn't make any sense to me. see result below

Three undergraduate students from different tertiary institutions in the country have emerged the winners of the first Design Genre/ Ife Architectural Students Association (IFASA), OAU, Design Competition for students of Architectural Design in Nigerian Institutions.

The competition which was organised as part of the IFASA Week 2016, is being sponsored by Design Genre. Gabriel Adeoluwa of the Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) won the first prize while Gbemedio Ejakpovi of the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) Ife and Ajegbile Oladimeji of The Bells University, Ota won the 1st and 2nd place runners up prizes respectively.

Presenting the prize money of the N100,000, N75,000 and N50,000 respectively to the first, second and third place winners at the Obafemi Awolowo University last week, Mr. Anthony Okoye, Principal Partner, Design Genre, a Lagos based architectural firm, explained that his company decided to sponsor the competition to encourage sustainable architectural designs among future practitioners in the country. “This platform is focused on horning talents of students of architecture in Universities and Polytechnics across the country on sustainable designs for our environment".

According to the brief for the competition, mixed-use developments play vital roles in creating neighbourhoods where people can walk between homes, work, shopping and recreation. “The primary design issue related to mixed-use project is the need to successfully balance the requirements of residential uses, such as the need for privacy and security with the needs of commercial uses for access, visibility, packing, loading and possibly extended hours of operation” explained Mr. Okoye.

The candidates as consultant Architect for the mixed-use project, were tested on these while they were expected to work with a team of architects to produce presentation drawings that will address all the issues associated with mixed-use developments in Nigeria.

Apart from being an alumnus of depart of Architecture, Ife, Mr. Okoye is a LEED Accredited Professional and Chartered Member, US Green Building Council, RIBA. “There is no gain saying the need for a social and environmentally conscious building design in today’s world, it is therefore our objective to actively aid the realization of this global goal by helping to shape the career of future Architects to be complaint to global green building requirements”, he said adding that Design Genre intends to sponsor the initiative on an annual basis as a social responsibility initiative and a way of promoting green and sustainable design amongst young architects.

Mr. Okoye who holds his first and second degrees in Architecture from the University of Ife and practices architecture and urban planning with firms in the USA, UK and Nigeria in various capacities is a member of the jury made up of top professionals that graded the entries. According to him, being the first edition of the Design Genre/IFASA Design Competition, the results are encouraging but expects the submissions by candidates to nudge higher in number and quality in subsequent editions.

To feature in the competition, candidates were required to submit a site plan, floor plans, roof plan, four sections, four elevations, 3D drawings and other supplementary drawings for the mid mixed-use complexes. Full presentation designs were required in either of autocard, revit or sketch up while the final presentations held at the Department of Architecture, Obafemi Awolowo University.



The Bells University’s Ajegbile Oladimeji, 2nd runner-up; FUTA’s Gabriel Adeoluwa, Winner; Mr. Anthony Okoye, CEO, Design Genre; Dayo Oduleye, Business Development Manager, Design Genre and OAU’s Gbemedio Ejakpovi, 1st runner-up at the presentation of prizes to winners of the Design Competition for Students of Nigerian Tertiary Institutions sponsored by Design Genre as part of the 2016 Ife Architectural Students Association (IFASA) Week at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife recently.
