They called my staffs two weeks ago.
Till now no alart.
My dashboard has no issues.
Everything verified..
Still yet nothing nothing.
Ok ooo

Bro,
It will come.
Just be patient and be expectant.

I believe the Survival fund scheme is not in a hurry, it must go round to everyone that's been verified.
Definitely!

Virus99:
And boom boom boom ! Last night.
50k each for all my 8 staffs.

That's, 400k mhen!
But somehow this relief scheme is helping o.

Fibonacci88:
All my staff got 50k except one who got 30k. One is yet to confirm as she doesn't get alert.i don't think my business account or personal acc will be credited cos I didn't receive any call. It's still nice I know Dec salary is off my books.

Wow!
You mean first or second payment?

Cutecharlz:
Yeah my employee was paid 50k last nite. I am yet to get paid as the employer. I sincerely dont know the amount for employer payroll. My bank account details and bvn are verified.

Anybody with any info if employers are paid and hw much? Thanks

Employers are to recieve 50k payroll.
Employee, 30k.
Thats why I'm wondering how your employee got the 50k alert...did you add his account as the business or main account?

Cutecharlz:
6 of my employees were paid last night. 1 person among them was paid 50k and others 30k. As the employer will i be paid?

2 persons among my employee were called and they answered correctly all the qustions they were asked last week. Also 3 persons among my employee missed their calls. I the employer was called on monday this week for verification and i answered correctly.

I look forward to see my (employer) payment. Thanks to Survivalfund.

So you mean, an employee was paid 50k?
And you the employer hasn't been paid?
I thought 50k payroll is only for the employer or company's account?

Fibonacci88:
Same too..one called me that he got 50k alert this night

Thank God for the pay.
It will sort out alot of thiggs, specially this period.

HRprof:
First alert on 8th Dec and i received 30k likewise my employee

Well, that's a proof that we will get paid for 3 months.
It will be sequentially...
For those of us that were paid late December, then late January or so, we should get paid for the 2nd batch.

Also, for those still expecting payment, Pls do not loose hope. Pray and trust that it will come. We mustn't be paid together. But we Wil all be paid.

Thank God sha.

copyrites:
Access bank account?

Yes!

Guys,
Like magic o.
One of my employees has been paid, this night.

Anoymus:
I have a girlfriend I am meaning to propose to during the festive period, she's everything I want in a woman except few exception which might be a hindrance to the proposal.
Gist is, my babe is a graduate but lack of work made her to learn fashion designing, she's done with the training and she's very good with what she does.

After marriage, I have told her that I'll assist in her business, I'm planning to get a bigger shop space for her and equip it with modern day machines, tools and tailoring materials goods to help make her work lucrative. I'm budgeting about 1.2-1.5m for this.

The issue now is that, 3 days ago, I asked her what her role would be if eventually after marriage she gets the shop, equipments and all, where she would come in in terms of responsibilities in the house. Her reply was she doesn't want to assume any responsibility and that it's my duty to cater for the family and she can only help & I shouldn't make anything compulsory for her. So many thoughts came through my mind. One of it was that, where the proceeds of her investment would be going to if I should shoulder all the responsibilities in the house knowing fully well that she makes money.

I rang my mum and told her of her response, I was shocked that she backed her saying that I shouldn't have asked her to foot anything in the house that it was my sole responsibility as a man to cater for my family my wife inclusive. My dad too, same thing. Even told my gf mum about it too , she giggled and said I shouldn't have asked her n that it's my duty to provide for my family. They all sounded foreign to me. Or am I the one not understanding?

My question now is, why invest that kind of money in her when I'm not sure of getting little or nothing in terms in return help to run the family. That sum of money could get me 4 brand new bikes and 2 neatly used Keke Napep for transportation business. I'm sure I'll be getting returns from these investment weekly or monthly basis.

I don't want who wouldn't have any sense of responsibility at home after investing in her, even if she's covering 10% or 5% I wouldn't mind. Mere helping doesn't go down well with me, she might have and decide not to give out. I rather not invest at all and expect nothing from her.

I don't know if I'm the one over thinking this things or my parent and her mum aren't seeing things from my perspective or am I being inconsiderate?

Criticism, Insults and bashing are welcomed. Thanks

Well,
I won't say you are not thinking right. Marriage is a union of two people (a man and a woman) to become one. And when it comes to responsibilities, it should be handled as one. More pressure shouldn't be on one than the other. Society has and still teaching us that, handling responsibilities at home, is what makes a man. No sir!
It's not, it's part of it. This is what send some men to early grave or brings heavy depression on them.
My wife should be able to account for some responsibilities at home too, even as I do. It's our home, our family, our marriage. She's called a HELPER! So she should help in all ways.

P.S: This is not to approve and encourage some lazy men out there. We must ensure that we are truly the Head of the Family.

presidency:
Ask for a President beleaguered from all sides, and I’ll show you Muhammadu Buhari, the ramrod straight man from Daura, in Katsina State, who turns 78 today.

In the build up to the 2015 presidential election, we used to say everything had been thrown at him as projectiles, except the kitchen sink. Permit me to update that expression. Today, everything possible has been thrown at President Buhari, including the kitchen sink. Anything. Everything. Fake news. Hate speech. Lies. False propaganda. Evil thoughts. Malediction. Odium. Opprobrium. Ogbunigwe. Ogulutu.Surface to air missiles. All offensive weapons. But the man trudges on. Calmly, sedately, peacefully.

If only more Nigerians knew this President. If only they knew the essential Buhari, the quintessential patriot and gentleman, they would behave differently, handle him with more care, and show him more kindness. Yes, everyone needs kindness, even Presidents.

Remember that song by Mary Mc Kee and The Genesis?
You’ve got to try a little kindness
Yes, show a little kindness
Just shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
Then you’ll overlook the blindness
Of narrow-minded people, on narrow-minded streets.

Too many people have chosen to believe the wrong things about President Buhari, and have ossified their minds against the truth. But then, those of us who have had the privilege to work with him, studied and known him at close quarters, have a duty to tell what we have seen. And what better day to do it, than on his birthday.

Oh, he eats from the President. What else would he say than to sing his praises. True? False. If need be, I will serve this President for free. I consider it a great privilege to serve a man I admire. Even gratis.

Somebody commented that a blitzkrieg has been launched against Buhari and the government he leads, from all quarters. Some elements in the media, human rights groups, so-called activists, NGOs, Boko Haram, ISWAP, all at once. But is Buhari the loser? Not at all. It’s the country that ultimately loses, just as Eric Donaldson sang in ‘Little Did You Know:’
You think that you are hurting me
But little did you know you are only hurting yourself
Little did you know you are only hurting yourself.

In about two years and five months, with God being merciful as He always is, President Buhari will land safely, and retire to Daura for a well-deserved retirement at 80. And if those engineering distraction against his government continue, it is the country that would have lost. A great deal.

What are the things some people hurl against the President, which shows that they don’t know him at all?

He’s a religious bigot. Really? I’ve not seen a scintilla of evidence in the past five years. Every Christmas and Easter holiday, he calls those of us who are Christians, working with him, and asks us to stay off work, and enjoy the season with our families. That’s not the way of bigots, who would never acknowledge any religion, except their own.

As a military commander, history has it that Buhari would always give soldiers working under him time to go for worship on Sunday mornings, just as he did to the Muslims on Fridays. Yet, bigot, bigot, some people continue to shout.

He’s a Fulani, he rears cows, and all Fulani herdsmen are criminals, that’s why he tolerates them. Really? Some people even say all Fulani are herdsmen, whether they see them with cattle or not. Truth is; every ethnic stock has its deviants, its criminal elements. You can’t just demonize all Fulani, simply because you want to excoriate the President. Did he choose to be born Fulani? Did I choose to be born Yoruba, and did the Ishan, Idoma or Ijaw man choose the ethnic stock he wanted to be born into? It’s a biological accident. You have nothing to do with it. A man then doesn’t go repudiating where he comes from, simply because some people have decided to tar his people with the brush of infamy.

He’s nepotistic. A common refrain, but non-scientific. About three years ago, we did a scientific exercise. We chronicled all the appointments made by the President since 2015, and allocated them to states and regions. The result showed that the Southwest had the largest share. Followed by Imo and Kano states. Then Edo and Katsina. And on and on. But the naysayers ignored facts and figures, and stuck to their false narratives. Nepotism.

One day, the President had given me an appointment to announce in the early days of the administration. By then, some people had started talking of northernisation agenda. So I said, “Mr President, this is the murmur we hear. Why don’t you consider giving this position to another part of the country?”

He looked at me calmly, smiled, and said: “If a search has been conducted for a position, and someone has been thrown up as the best candidate. And I then bypass him because of where he comes from, or because of his religion, haven’t I been unfair to that person?”

Food for thought, indeed.

This is Jubril from Sudan and not Muhammadu Buhari, who had died during the medical vacation in 2017, some people say. You have a clone in Aso Villa, not Buhari. Idiocy, sadly believed by even some intellectuals.

Let me tell you a story. On the day the President finally returned to the country in August 2017, after months of absence, the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen Abayomi Olonisakin, was giving out his daughter in marriage. I had attended the church service, decked unusually in complete Agbada, with cap to match. From the wedding, I went straight to the airport to join the reception party.

We formed a welcome line, as we usually do. And as the President shook each person, he had one wisecrack or the other to say. When he got to me, he took my hand and said: “Adesina, this is the best I’ve seen you dressed.” We both laughed heartily, and the television cameras captured it. I remember that many people asked me later what had tickled me and the President, that we laughed so uproariously.

Jubril from Sudan? Would he know my name as Adesina? Would he know I rarely wear Agbada? How ridiculous can some people be?

Another story. The journalist Lindsay Barret had been a long time friend of the President. One day, he sent me to give his greetings. When I did, the President said: “Lindsay Barret. I remember meeting him at the war front in 1968. He was covering the war. There was a day he was almost killed in an ambush, and he then described himself as a ‘devout coward,’ who was lucky to be alive.”

Jubril of Sudan? And he remembers Barret, whom he met at the warfront in 1968? Tell it to the marines.

Ask me for a loyal man, who never forgets a good turn, and I’ll show you Muhammadu Buhari. Among the last class of Ambassadors, he had personally picked Justice George Oguntade, who was sent to United Kingdom, and Justice Sylvester Nsofor, who he deployed to America. The latter died only last week, aged 85.

How did the two men gain the favour, loyalty and respect of the President? In his many legal battles after disputed election results in 2003, and 2007, they had given dissenting judgements at both the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court, nullifying the election results, saying Candidate Buhari had been cheated. The man never forgot, and sought them out in due time. The same also happened to some of us working with him today.

A kind man. I have lots of stories to tell, but let me restrict myself to a few. In December 2015, I had lost my elder sister, a Professor of Dramatic Arts, in an auto crash. While I was crying like a wailing wailer, who was on the phone, consoling and condoling with me? Muhammadu Buhari.

And before he became President, when my mother passed on in 2013, and we had a commendation service for her in Lagos, who flew in all the way from Kaduna to attend? Muhammadu Buhari. He sat through the Christian service. Yet, they say he’s a bigot. I hear. Bigot from Sudan.

And in January 2017, I was to receive the traditional title of Nwanne di Namba of Mmaku Kingdom, in Enugu State. Courtesy demanded I tell the President. This man, who prides himself as ‘very stingy’ gave me a handsome amount of money to ferry my friends and family to the ceremony. How much? I won’t tell you, lest you ask for a belated share.

And in May 2018, I was billed for China for a 12 days course for senior government officials from Africa. He said when the journey was two days away, I should come to see him. I did. You know what he said? “Adesina, I know that you don’t have money. But you are too shy to ask.” We both laughed, and he gave me an envelope which contained foreign currency. How much? You think I’ll tell you? For where?

This President is a patriot. He loves this country dearly. A man of personal discipline. Single minded about the infrastructural development of the country. And he’s succeeding at it. I have loads of stories to tell to justify each virtue. But time and space won’t permit.

However, let me tell this final one, as told to me by a retired Colonel of the Nigerian Army.

He said he was a Major at the Second Mechanized Division, Ibadan, when the then Major General was posted there in early 1983, as General Officer Commanding.

There was a cocktail reception, billed for 8 pm. Fifteen minutes to the time, the new GOC walked briskly in. Only a sprinkle of officers had arrived. He moved round the venue, surveying the place, and at the dot of 8 pm, with the hall still scanty, he went to the gate, and directed the sergeant-major on duty to lock the inner one firmly, admitting nobody.
Nobody.
Yes sir!
The GOC went back inside, held the cocktail with the few officers available. Event over, he went back to the gate, to see the battery of latecomer officers huddled there. He surveyed them, and then instructed:
All of you, see me in the office tomorrow by 8 am.
Yes sir!
The GOC walked briskly away. And you know what? As early as 6 am next day, most of the officers had reported in his office. Once bitten, twice shy.

At 78, the President still scrupulously respects time. Do they make them like this anymore? Doubtful.

Yet, many people are plotting, and engineering all sorts of artifices, to ensure Buhari does not succeed. Who loses? The country!

There is this classic Yoruba film, Saworoide, which I watched years back. Adebayo Faleti, who wrote and starred in the film, looked at the stratagems and underhand dealings of man. And he sang, rather philosophically: Koi ye won, yio ye won lola.

Translated freely, it means: They don’t understand today. They’ll understand tomorrow.

It’s better for a lot more cynical Nigerians to understand this President today, rather than tomorrow, for the good of the country. That would be the best birthday gift they can give him.

*Adesina is Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity

No offense o
But this write up looks like an eulogy to a dead man.

Well, 675 in other words can be 567.
Something ain't right.

True, we cannot deny the fact that the virus is in Nigeria, and in fact, most people might have it and not even know, thinking it's just a regular malaria thing.
Abeg, NCDC should stop the game of numbers!
It ain't helping.

Well,
We will know the actual story soon.
US will release a counter report on this.

Tekzyflex:
I have removed my mind from this charade... If am paid no wahala...if am not cool. life goes on.

Truly,
That's what I've resorted to do.
If it comes, thank God. If it doesn't, thank God.

ceragon123:
How do you provide proof of salary payment to staff when you have been paying cash? Should I submit the pay slip?

You can snap them and send to them as jpg, or pdf.

Ogharaboy:
30k alert seen

Wow.
It's in the neighbourhood

HRprof:
I just got alert now. 30k company account, let me confirm from my staff if they got their too

Wow.
Congrats bro.
Finally.

This scheme is not properly planned for.
Their level of competence is not commendable.

HRprof:
The additional info: displayed when your CAC is verified and the name on CAC displayed there as conformation of the business name. If your CAC shows incorrect that means your business name is not found in CAC..
Initially mine was not showing anything on the additional info; until my CAC is verified then I saw the business name appear there. Is just the normal process of verifications

Did the additional info bring your business name?
Mine brought out someone else's own, as additional info.
Even as my CAC status is verified.

Guys,
What's the essence of the "CAC STATUS (additional info)"?
And why does some else's business name appear there?

Or it just mine?

supersaz66:
I've not checked.
My boss checks was the one that registered us . But I've been verified since last month tho.

Okay.
Your boss is the one who has access to the portal.

Confirm if the payroll bar is full. And all other statuses are verified.
Then relax, pray, and be expectant.

humble26:
They just called my employee.
Asking for the name and amount I pay them.
They also asked of their account details for verification.
Thou 3 of my employees missed their calls.
Fingers crossed.

They are in the neighborhood.
They go soon disburse.
We are ready.


Funny, how any message that comes into my phone, is treated with high urgency...lol

Tekzyflex:
Aboy no try am ooo! Don't hope on money you haven't seen. But believe me .you will be paid.
just remember to buy me a bottle of chilled Hero. lol

That's it nah.
But, the temptation enter my mind o. I just no give am space. Who go lend me self?
LOL.

It is well.

Tekzyflex:
It's just the anxiety in the whole thing.
Like mine everything is verified except for the CAC still showing verifying in one area
and unable to verify in real time;check back for manual verification.
I have sent mails upon mails. I have also contacted them through the survival fund platform yet no reply.

I understand, truly.
Mine also, has been verified (all) for days now, going to weeks, no payment nothing.
And somebody cannot go and borrow money with the Ope of paying back when they pay...

Patience Noni!

Let's all excercise patience.
If the payroll is ours, then it is.

Patience!
Ive not Recieved mine yet, but I'm hopeful.
Lets not fret over it, nor anything. Do your best and let God handle the rest.
It's not even about your payroll being full or verified. Some got mismatched and got paid,...

It will get to our turn.

Truly, the personhood of Ananias is really amazing.

In modern day Christianity, we can say that Ananias is the spiritual father of Apostle Paul.

But, amazingly, we didn't really hear anything about him again. He was truly a disciple of Jesus, he wasn't after fame or recognition. Else, he must have taunted Apostle Paul to always give him reference and special Honour each time he writes a letter to the churches or stand to minister.

Disclaimer:
I am not saying it's bad to recognize higher authorities, but we must all see ourselves as STEWARDS before the Father. We are not owners, but managers.

Yes, Jesus wasn't born on the 25th of December.
Bu then, it's beyond the date. The bone of contention should be "the essence".

If we set aside a day, to celebrate the Birth of the Savior of the world, is that too much?
Who cares about the date, whether it's 35th or 1st, all we want is to show gratitude to God for giving us the Savior.
It's always a season of love, gratitude and merry.

Mind you, everything will end here on earth.
We don't recognize December 25th in Heaven.

Jesus is God.

Believe me, this truth has not sank in the heart of many believers yet.
We still see from the perspective the world is showing us.

favoryourl:
Make una no dey try me oh.
When I saw the thread on page 32 I was thinking I will see testimonies of payment only grammars of insultive innueudum.
If u people have time to quarrel pls exchange ur numbers and stop using this thread.

I tell you,
I thought alerts has entered fa, with testimonies everywhere. Only to see guys talking at each other.
It is well.

Supermajor:
Pls how can I add my organization, because my dashboard is showing me that no organization added , and there is no option to add it on my dashboard...

I do not think it's possible since the portal is closed.
You can make further enquiries online.

olaoyekemi:
Pls the CAC number is it the one beneath or at the top? We actually used the one beneath but its saying CAC unverified. Pls did you use the one beneath & got verified.

Yes I used the one beneath, that has alphabets a the beginning. I've been verified.
Just waiting for cash.

dlaw281:
Guys am.I the only one with my cac not yet verified, and is there anybody that was paid without the CAC reg been verified

Your CAC number should have three Alphabets a the front. Like, ABC123456. Check beneath your certificate, you Will see it.


Also, has anyone from Ogun received payment?
