CareerRe: How Do I Break Into Oil & Gas Industry In Nigeria? by scobaba: 9:07pm On Sep 16, 2013
Jarus and X fire....well done guys.

Just like X fire said, it sometimes depend on luck.

I submitted my cv in 2009 but got called for test early this year...4 whole years. shocked

I was on vacation then so had tym to read well.....luck no 1.

The newspaper I bought on my way from lag to abuja for the interview talked about the effect of oil bunkering on current oil production( the pet minister's pix, deziani was there).
In the interview I was asked the name of the pet minister, number of barrels we produce and reason for the drop......luck no 2.

I was the only igbo guy among the 12 guys who passed the 145 man test....one of the interviewer happened to be an igbo woman wink.....luck no 3.

When God says it's your time, there's nothing anybody can do about it.
However you need to get yourself ready.
Without my 2.1 in accounting plus ACA, I wouldn't have been called in the first place.
Just like Jarus said, no professional qualification no invitation for a finance job. At least I know that about the big 5( chevron, shell, exonmobil, Agip and Total).

@OP, you have a job now with one of the big 4 accounting firms...dat is a plus for you. 3 or 4years work experience there will position you very well, but please try ICAN or ACCA in addition.
All the best.

Christianity EtcRe: Curse And Blessing; How Effective Are They? by scobaba: 12:25pm On Sep 15, 2013
Yes they do.

But some curses don't work because the person who said it may not mean it.
If ur papa neva tell u God punish you from small till now dat means you grow for your uncle house. grin

On a serious note.
Several years back, The late Chuba Okadigbo as a growing politician once insulted The Late Nnamdi Azikiwe(an elder). In response, Zik told him that he would grow to be a great man in Nigeria, but will die cheaply.
We all know how great and rugged Okadigbo turned out, but he died frm d smell of tear gas used to disperse people.

My uncle once left a lady he dated for years to marry another lady who converted him to 'born again'. The former lady got very sick and on her death bed, she said my uncle won't bear fruits.
My uncle later died 17yrs later without a child. sad

Christianity EtcRe: Have Any Of Your Dreams Ever Come To Reality? by scobaba: 11:50am On Sep 15, 2013
I so much loved oceanic bank back as an under graduate......can't remember if it was thought, wish or dream, but I ended up working with the bank for 2years b4 it crashed.

Hank anuku was by best Nigeria movie star some 7 8 years ago(when he was still ok), dreamt we became friends.
Last year, he moved to my street and I saw him everyother day. We once sat opposite each other drinking beer in a bar on my street, but I said nothing to him.( d kolo don start den).

Lastly, I dreamt so much of working with an oil firm cos while in banking, I was always posting chevron and some other small oil firms staff salaries and I always wondered when I would get there.
I finally left Banking 3months ago and currently work with an Oil Exploration firm.

Maybe I should not add this one....on my ican induction ceremony in MAY 2010, my mum refused snapping a personal pix and I looked @ her and in my mind I said, 'is she scared she would die or what' till date, I don't know why that thought came to me.....she passed on Jan 16th 2011 after a brief illness. RIP Mum.

[s]And stabbing was their method of violence[/s][i][/i]


I can never forget sitting at the refectory eating one evening and some menacing group of boys we later learned came from ESUT stormed the place prancing around and next thing I know knives were being through across the refectory .
I have never been so afraid as we ran for dear life

Are these cultists you folks speak of all undergraduates of the institution?
UNIBEN was such a fine school,why are these people destroying the image

EducationRe: NANS Senate-President, 4 Others Die In Auto Crash by scobaba: 9:16pm On Jun 13, 2013
RIP to these comrades.


I hope the accident wasn't a case of over speeding.

if u v eva been in 'Aluta jet' as the NANS bus is normally called, you would have noticed dat the drivers SCHOOL-OVER are reckless, they claim to be the king of the road. After much cheap booze they risk people's life.

NANS has lost more activists on the road than in the struggle itself.

May God give the families of the dead comfort in this sad time.

Victory is still sure.....someday!
BusinessRe: Banker Sleeps On Keyboard, Accidentally Transfers Millions by scobaba: 8:33pm On Jun 11, 2013
3ace: The picture above must be for illustration purpose. That can't be the guy I suppose. Two people were guilty here but why would the bank fire one person? Abi dem too dey do "man know man"?
If i'm to use a naija bank to explain why he was sacked, I would say its because he did not ask questions about such a huge sum before authorizing the trxn. 222m euros transaction is not something you see everyday na.

In Nigeria CBN said you cannot transfer 10,000dollars at a go, but for even 5,000dollars, head of operation dey shine eye, dey look the customer like yahoo boi grin.....talk more of 222m euros shocked

So you mean its not wrong to be threatning a student with her grades just to get in between her legs abi? So you are one of the lecturers that will be sexually harassing female students because of your inordinate lustful desires.smh :/
you dint get me here.

she should rescue you because it is wrong for a lecturer to harass you and not becausE your dad was her schoolmate.
