I recall correctly when I served, I bathed in that bathroom the first day I entered Yikpata, it was not a good one at all. Till I left that camp, I bathed outside after that once trial.
But aside that, Yikpata is really a true taste of camping, just forest for people to leave. For me, it was the best! That was real camp! No fences no coverage just forest! Real fun.
I forgot my Cubicle, but I think Hostel K, check my sign out on the wall, "Shaev7 was here." Happy new batch....

AGManuel:
I write this with tears in my eyes but I won't cry because a man is not supposed to.

If really I was such a bad person , I hope to change and live a better life. But to deserve unemployment because of a past situation I found myself in which I couldn't help, I think it's too much for me to bear, but what do I know? maybe I deserve to be unemployed.

But if I tell you I'm not depressed, I'm lieing .

Last year I got a marketing Job with a bank few months after my NYSC when things were extremely hard . Even transport money to go for the training was hard. On the first day of training, on my way home, I lost my phone which was the only thing of value I had then. Safe to say I began the Job phoneless , cashless and frustrated .

Even money to buy bank wears and appear smart or serious was a case . No transport for work, no phone for my work and marketing, no clothes to wear, I'll leave out feeding coz I could control that with starvation or one square meal. My mom was only able to raise small cash for me which most times didn't last a week, transport to and fro was 400 naira, a plate of food was 300, before I get transport for marketing , airtime and transport to call and bringing customers to open accounts and running around on the job which was money intensive, anybody who worked a as marketer before can relate...all these with a huge target of 30 accounts to open and a target of 3 million to bring to the bank.. At least I'm expected to spend 1k a day on the Job which I have not been paid. Remember it was my first month and most banks don't pay in the first month, it's in the second month they combine your salary and pay. Pay was 35k. I was just frustrated.

All these struggles manifested in my performance coz I couldn't deliver and my first two months was a mess coz some days I just couldn't go to work. Sometimes I came to work late coz I had to look for transport money in the morning. Being able to come to work and survive was my main concern then, I fell sick many times out of starvation and it affected my Job. On one occasion or two the Branch manager assisted with stipends when I complained to her about my struggles. Most times the stipends only lasted a day or two but It was a life saver for me coz there was no other option, at least I was able to come to work and eat the next day. Fellow colleagues couldn't help, nobody could, I dropped shame one day in the board meeting and asked for help for we the new staff and how hard it is for us to keep up with the Job. I got nothing.

Not too long after, I resigned to pursue something else . I traveled.

Only for me to come back after 8 months for another bank Job interview and when my former Branch manager was called as a referral, the one I complained to about my struggles and reasons for my underperformance , the same one who assisted me sometimes and this was her reply "He's unserious, indiscipline and unfit for the Job. I was not supposed to hear that but the interviewer put it on loud by mistake and I heard that part before she quickly put the phone off. Immediately I knew I wasn't gonna get the Job.

It hurts me so much, dad is no more, mom a widow, siblings in school calling me day and night for money being the first son and bread winner. If I'm unserious and irresponsible, I can change & become better. No matter the circumstances I faced, I can't make excuses for that. But if I was such a terrible person to deserve unemployment . I let God be the Judge. The interview happened yesterday.

I'm back to the unemployment table guys. My advice to every young hustler out there is to do their best on any job they find themselves no matter the circumstances. But my prayer is for our pasts not to deny us our future bread. We go make am last last.

When you fall down, you gotta pick yourself back up. I like the advice you dropped man. The other boss felt that was the end for you, little does he know that it was just a path which will lead you to you final destination (success). Move on bro. You got things, better things ahead.

None!

Why are they wearing Rosary? All the yahoo boys paraded all the time all wear Rosary,not even the fancy one, the real old rubber one.

This is real. The Pope, Francis said "Catholics don't need to convert anybody to the Church, your life should do the conversion." I recalled 2011 through the Legion of Mary on an Exploration Dominicalis, which the Bishop was aware. In fact, my group went to a village I felt I would never come back and then I was a student. That's when I knew Nigeria is just damn poor and there are people who don't put on clothes and live in bush, inside hut like what I can see in this Seminarians photo. I had mine too. God bless the works of those that spread the true gospel of Christ.

Yack!

Animal city

Stanweezy:
The recruitment is real but their are so many hitches on the site, you will resize ur certificate till it turns to antificate

lol

I wish all Igbos across the country will comply, esp Lagos in Alaba and co...

Which higher institution is that ?

Ire2:
Suffering and smiling. When politician do roads, bridges (which is even the least shit that should be considered a project) they will praise him like no tomorrow that he has done a lot. Honestly Nigerians enjoy suffering.

Which is their job. This country worship politicians when the politicians are meant to serve the public!

Ire2:
Rubbish

What happened to building good hospital and equipping it properly?

What happened to putting good security infrastructure in place to curb crime like putting cctv cameras in strategic locations in lagos and responsive emergency services incase of robbery, etc.?

Renovate the fucking government schools and make sure their curriculums are up to date!

What about renovating the terrible state of ikoyi prisons and at least try to make it more human friendly?

Mr ambode you are just like every other politician.
You haven't done shit.

Seriously I will quote you again, "he hasn't done any sh!t."

I hate when some persons praise politicians in this country when they know they are suffering....

All his projects are bus stops... Shame! Brain damage! I will never applaud any politicians in this country until they mean well for the citizens and put Nigeria First!

Whichever way they want to make it very clear to us, most of us knows their real agenda. Mistake priority... The lightening that struct the transformer in my region will visit you all one day either by revolution or otherwise....

Same thing happened in my street few months ago! Rather police turned the case around and looked for innocent victim to arrest! Some police are good some are bad!

No!

Hi NLders. Please I want to go to Badagry beach. Its really long. Please I want to the security case on a normal Sunday, is it safe?
I just want to go chill out there since its close by... Thanks

Crystal clear! What is the point preaching one Nigeria, can't some of us see it now in reality? Rubbish country...

jadeliyi:
his salary and allowance ?
you dont seem to understand public sector salary structure when an ordinary grade level 1 officer receives 18000 his boss at grade level 17 receives 460000plus and even in the health sector grade level 1 officer receives 24000plus and grade level 17 receives2millionplus and do you know the number of staffs in ministries,agencies,govt parasatles,local government workers,health care , pensioners,ghost workers et al
though most of these governors find their way to loot the state tresuary but that should not mean their constituted salary and allowance is even up to 0.01% of the total salary of all the civil servants.

Whatever your analysis are, you and I knows that they are just wicked and heartless, enslaving the poor workers! If What is the true definition of a 'Leader?' Bro. I got your plight but they are wicked!

But your salary and allowances is more than the entire state workers! May God have mercy on all the governors and politicians in Nigeria. Please fellow Nigerians, you too should stop eye service and lay your beds for tomorrow so you can sleep well. We all can take out all these evil leaders out of power if we really want to.

MetaPhysical:
What do you call greater heights? Senate President of your country will be under supervision of a kid that graduated university and joined UN maybe ten years ago, and has never held political office anywhere in world. Thats a greater height?

Nice shot!

Worst statement in 2019! Technically, life has passed he that made the statement. Is plane the persons problem?

From a careful look at that video, that doesn't look like Catholic event. It looks like some few persons acting and faking! where were the rest of the church members? The priest won't even allow such! My view...

Uyomeyouyo:
Is Dogara a muslim

No.

What annoys me most is people watch as it happens and don't act. Some prefer to video it even if the person is killed you're good do post it online. Are or is such person distinct from the despicable menace or perpetrators?
