You have to get international certifications that have cross-border acceptability. IT is one area where you get that.

Can you please recommend any relevant international certification(s) for me as a Data Analyst?

I learnt Excel, SQL and Power Bi last year.

I am currently learning Python

If you meant 360k per month, it's less than 360 dollars.

Hi guys!

I hope this my post gets to the FP, so I can get insights from a wider audience; even I know some might not make sense, but one thing I've learnt from the short time I joined this platform, is that - sense dey inside nonsense.

Pardon me, my write fit dey a bit lengthy.

I currently work with a multi-national startup coy. My net pay is a bit above 400k naira (this's at the moment), I've worked for about 2 years. I'm married with two kids and expecting the third.

Now my dilemma is that, I've not been able to save up funds, I feel like my living condition doesn't reflect what I earn. Shingbai like this, I no get for account. The last I could remember, I go deep hand for forex, e nearly give me hypertension (I lost about 2m). I still dey pay debt wey I incur as a result.

Now where I need assistance is, looking at the amount I'm earning, how do I spend? Please for those that will be kind enough to give suggestions, let it practically explained, as in help me break am down to the amount wey I suppose spend, how I suppose spend am, and wetin I suppose save.

I believe say many family people dey here wey get better experiences.

Thanks 🙏.

Does your wife has anything she's doing, even if it's work from home? If she does, it can be of help. If not, no wahala.

First of all, set a monthly compulsory savings target, maybe 10% or 20% or even 30% of your income. Once your salary comes, push out the savings immediately to a separate account. Please don't get ATM card for this account. Please don't use the money from this account for Forex, betting or even any investment. It is for your medium or long term project.

Truth is, you need to cut down on some comfort, like DSTV subscription (I never renew my GoTv subscription for like 3 months now); cut down on entertainment (eg. how much you spend on buying drinks and snacks for yourself and others)

Cut down on eating out. Cook and carry food and even water from home; (that's what I currently do, and it's way cheaper)

Avoid unhealthy lifestyle like smoking and excessive alcohol intake.

Compare driving and public transport. If taking public transport is cheaper overall, then you should lean more towards it.

Finally, remember to pay your tithe. God can give you wisdom to manage your money well, no matter how little or how large.

I wish you all the best

He is still an interested party. In saner climes, that company should never have been awarded the contract in the first place.

The Minister needs to resign or be sacked.

PressMyButton:
Wike, Umahi, Tunji-ojo, you've got to watch your back. Opposition is never happy seeing you deliver creditably, they try every ways possible to throw the spanner in the wheels. Since Betta took over, she has opened up various programmes, added more beneficiaries into the welfare packages, more impressively is the introduction of retired security personnels, widows of gallant soldiers who died on the field, including previously neglected soldiers whose limps were lost in battle, giving them a new lease of life. My advice to the opposition is, let people work and stop the distractions. Sponsoring media propaganda against top notch performers is a poor tactics and a wrong use of money. Betta is a moving train.

My friend, stop being sentimental jare

Why would 500+ Million Naira be paid from public to a private account under her instructions?

If she made a mistake or doesn't understand the Financial Regulations, she should accept her lapse

If she did it with fraudulent intent, she should own up.

You didn't receive money meant for Nigerian households yet you're defending people who don't even know your surname

Ebvadoo:
The political rivalry between Governor Sim Fubara and Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike took an unusual turn during the festive season as both leaders engaged in a high-profile gesture of goodwill: distributing bags of rice to the residents of Rivers State.

Despite the backdrop of a longstanding political feud, the distribution of customised rice bags adorned with the faces of the prominent political figures became a conspicuous feature in Port Harcourt and its environs.

Governor Wike reportedly allocated 2,000 bags of rice to each local government area, adopting a broad approach. In contrast, Governor Fubara opted for a more targeted strategy, distributing 100 bags per ward.

Numerous stakeholder groups, including political factions, youth associations, market unions, non-indigenous communities, and landlord associations, found themselves recipients of these politically-branded rice offerings.

While social media buzzed with commentary, some users cynically questioned the motive behind the distribution and even the quality of the rice. However, investigations revealed that the rice in the customised bags met quality standards, with no complaints from the recipients.

Addressing the impasse and emerging issues, Senator Magnus Abe, the governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party in the 2023 election in Rivers State, voiced his concerns on a popular radio station, Super 93.3 FM, Port Harcourt. Abe, who had recently announced his return to the All Progressives Congress, criticized the distribution process, advising Governor Fubara, “Let me criticize Governor Siminalayi Funara. He sent rice; that rice should go beyond the PDP. It should not be for PDP alone. Give PDP, give APC, give SDP, and give everybody.”

Steal 10 Billion Naira

Distribute rice or goodies worth 100 Milion Naira.

The people sing your praise.

Rinse and repeat. You become a living legend

This is really the "weaponization of poverty"

Kingosytex:
90% of the money is gone already, if you know you know.

Can Adsense approved the website or what should I do to get it approved?

1) Since you're looking for AdSense approval, I think that "Advertise with us" is too early. I don't know if it will put the AdSense people off.

2) You need to have up to 5 categories (you have only 1) and have 4-6 posts or more, per category

3) Have a couple of your posts to be 1,000 words or above

4) Put in some original posts and not what can be seen in other blogs.

5) Your domain was registered on 2nd January 2024. Personally, I think it's quite early. Give it a month or two, while you post more content.

NB: Advice 2-4 we're given to me by EZOIC Team when I was trying to get my blog approved by AdSense. Without the AdSense approval, my blog won't have been able to be monetized by EZOIC.

After three rejections, I was accepted by AdSense.

You need to be patient too. You may or may not be accepted the first time.

It’s funny that indomie generation takes this guy serious a lot, it’s not their problem though cos they didn’t witness his era n how this man stole with reckless abandon

They are calling buhari n tinubu derogatory names but they don’t know d history of Halliburton scandal this man n atiku orchestrated

They don’t know d story of inec n maurice iwu under obj, if their Peter obi had contested when obj was president then they will know tinubu n buhari are angels

When it comes to debts, OBJ has every right to speak.

Under his administration, Nigeria's debts were cancelled and our debts reduced dramatically.

Foolish governments after him decided to start borrowing afresh.

Sirchiboy:
Not yet gotten job.
40 and I haven't work before 😂

I got my first job at 17, almost immediately I finished my SSCE.


It was as a Chemistry teacher in a lesson centre. The centre was owned by one of my secondary school seniors.

I worked there for few months and earned my first salary there before entering the university

Sadly, my guy died in the UK during the COVID period

carl90:
I met her when I went for service in Rivers state some years back. I live in Lagos. After the service year ,I have to go back to Lagos .
Now, of recent, we initiated a conversation that she still wants me and is willing to relocate from P.H to my base in Lagos.
I am still single. So, is she .
However, there are other women in the picture (there is always some in a man's life, right? whether you are single or married ?)
I am not committed to any of them though.
Should I encourage her to shoot her shot by relocating back to Lagos?

This 2024, everybody dey shine eye oh.

Don't start what you are not ready to finish.

She thought, "shebi others dey chop; make I chop my own too".

The bone then got stuck in her throat.

Madam, you go explain tire

How much is the bonus?

Notfogotten:
Does a wife earning more than the husband affect the marriage institution?

While a lot of people believe it does as according to them most women in this category tends to disrespect the man; others believe it doesn't as there are women who earn more than the husband and the information is known only between the man and the wife.

What is your opinion, do you have real life
experience or know a family where marriage is suffers because the woman later turned out to be earning more?

What would your advice be for men who later in life earns less than their wives?

What would be your advice for women who later earn more than the husbands

We are looking at provision only in monetary aspect?

Is the man providing spiritual leadership, cover and direction for his family (his wife inclusive)?

Can the wife meet him and get a wise advice in most, if not all areas of her life and even work?

If he is working and earning some money, is he using it wisely for the good of his home?

No matter how many times more than the man his wife earns, she won't mind shouldering the financial responsibilities of the home if her husband is doing well in other areas

Marriage isn't just about money. I'm talking from personal experience.

Seun:
Fellow Nairalanders,

I will hire more hands to help us to improve Nairaland.



However, I must warn you that things will get worse before they get better.


Seun Osewa,
Nairaland's Founder.

Na these two sentences tire me the most.

Just hire the hands nah. Do you need my permission to do that?

"... things will get worse before they get better" is making you sound like a politician.

As long as the "worse" doesn't involve Nairaland shutting down again without warning, we're fine.

So, in my enthusiasm, by 11.59Pm Nigerian time, I wished Google Bard (Google's equivalent of ChatGPT) a Happy New Year.

This is the response I got.

I wonder the country's time it is using. I suspect UK since UK is one hour behind Nigeria. I'm not sure if it's US though.

Note: I was working on some projects before this time and needed to make use of the AI

faceland:
He implicated himself otherwise they would waste your time.
They carry the car to station, you fill form, go to bank and come back (waste time).

They like to come out on Sundays easily in the morning (that is when people are more willing to bribe).

He initially took my Driver's License. Their office was 5 minutes away from where I met them. I told him No problem; shebi na to go bank pay fine. I was ready for anything.

He eventually returned my license and I left

Where is that FreeStuffs guy?

I'm sure he will avoid threads like this like a leper.

Engage in intellectual discussion for just five minutes.

Nice thread by the way.

kingsways:
Someone said it’s trending why Nigerians are fleeing Nigeria


And the answer is that the average Nigerian is very selfish and a big coward

Selfish because once they are out, they are satisfied and do not care what happens to the country and everyone else

Cowards because they are ready to swallow anything and are not ready to risk their lives for anything

Rotimi Amaechi said and it’s true: if you line up ten innocent Nigerians and shoot them, Nigerians will simply go about their normal business as if nothing happened

First of all, are you in Nigeria or did you Japa too?

When you answer this question, we can continue the conversation.

For now, I will say it is unfortunate you have stopped so low to despise millions of hard working Nigerians who have decided to look for other places where they can earn good income legitimately and live decent lives.

Answer my question first, then we can continue this discussion.

LailonBag:
I made over 3M as a freelance designer/printer this year. Forkk FG job🚮

They make more by collecting bribe from motorists.

One of them told me my tire was worn out. He said either I give him bribe or he will give me ticket to pay fine of #5,000. I told him since he called it bribe, I wasn't going to give him shishi. I dared him to book my fine and I will pay the 5k.

I ended up leaving without paying no fine.

praiseverse:
This fool, I've been waiting for your response. Certified Data Analyst but an illiterate regardless. Speaking without seeking counsel. Ended up being more foolish than anyone who would have done what you accused Xiaomi of.

You accused them of falsifying data while presenting unverified and unrealated facts.

Are you not a fool?? The email from Canalys is available on Twitter from Izzi Boye.

So, where is your own proof, or did you act like the fool you were trying to paint Xiaomi as??

What a FOOL. No Cap. A Fool with other Fools on this thread. Like as if you haven't noticed the recent hike in price on Samsung phones in Nigeria. People are buying Redmi because it's an affordable option better than Transion offerings. Not necessarily because they think Redmi is a better brand. It's just more value for money.

If he were confused or a shareholder of the company, he should have just sent a private message to their customer care to guide him properly, instead of rushing online.
Lol

onadana:
Am beginning to wonder,if it is actually necessary,why bring it to the public domain.He was doing his job,what he was trained for.
Compassion is part of their training, getting attached to a patient is not.

It is called Empathy, Sir

You go on the journey with your patient until they recover or die.

Doctors are humans too.

First time I lost a patient, I ran into a secluded room and cried. I kept asking myself if there was anything else I could have done to save the patient's life.

As for bringing it to the public, it's his decision. There are some experiences you can't just keep to yourself.

The important is that you don't disclose the patient's name

Originalsly:
Without even reading the letter .... it is very unprofessional for the doctor to post such a letter... and may even violate doctor/patient privacy rules. If he can do this .... publicly ... I'm wondering what does he discuss in his circle? .... Pastor So and So came in today and was diagnosed with an STD? .... or his wife came in with a damaged rectum? He need to be called in by the Medical Board or whatever. Whatever is told to a doctor ought to be kept private.... like someone confessing to a Priest... left between the confessor ... the Priest and God ... if the confession is forwarded to Him.

Patient is already dead.

Rest...

Even though I agree he should have blurred the patient's name or personally identifiable information
