News getting to me now states if APL doesn't come today or probably tomorrow, it's due to outstanding TF payments. Everyone has to be paid before the letter comes out. If everyone is paid today, we get it tomorrow.

If everyone is paid by tomorrow, then it's Wednesday. Payments are being disbursed quickly, so it should all be sorted by end of today or tomorrow hopefully. All in All its coming out this very week.
This might not be what some people wanna hear. But that's the update I just got

Lecture Title- THE TRUTH ABOUT BIG OIL AND CLIMATE CHANGE

In America, the world’s largest economy and its second biggest polluter, climate change is becoming hard to ignore. Extreme weather has grown more frequent. In November wildfires scorched California; last week Chicago was colder than parts of Mars.Scientists are sounding the alarm more urgently and people have noticed—73% of Americans polled by Yale University late last year said that climate change is real.

The left of the Democratic Party wants to put a “Green New Deal” at the heart of the election in 2020.
As expectations shift, the private sector is showing signs of adapting. Last year around 20 coal mines shut. Fund managers are prodding firms to become greener. Warren Buffett, no sucker for fads, is staking $30bn on clean energy and Elon Musk plans to fill America’s highways with electric cars.

Yet amid the clamour is a single, jarring truth. Demand for oil is rising and the energy industry, in America and globally, is planning multi-trillion-dollar investments to satisfy it. No firm embodies this strategy better than ExxonMobil, the giant that rivals admire and green activists love to hate. As our briefing explains, it plans to pump 25% more oil and gas in 2025 than in 2017. If the rest of the industry pursues even modest growth, the consequence for the climate could be disastrous.

ExxonMobil shows that the market cannot solve climate change by itself. Muscular government action is needed. Contrary to the fears of many Republicans (and hopes of some Democrats), that need not involve a bloated role for the state.

For much of the 20th century, the five oil majors—Chevron, ExxonMobil, Royal Dutch Shell, bp and Total—had more clout than some small countries. Although the majors’ power has waned, they still account for 10% of global oil and gas output and 16% of upstream investment. They set the tone for smaller, privately owned energy firms (which control another quarter of investment). And millions of pensioners and other savers rely on their profits. Of the 20 firms paying the biggest dividends in Europe and America, four are majors.

In 2000 bp promised to go “beyond petroleum” and, on the face of it, the majors have indeed changed. All say that they support the Paris agreement to limit climate change and all are investing in renewables such as solar. Shell recently said that it would curb emissions from its products. Yet ultimately you should judge companies by what they do, not what they say.

According to ExxonMobil, global oil and gas demand will rise by 13% by 2030. All of the majors, not just ExxonMobil, are expected to expand their output. Far from mothballing all their gasfields and gushers, the industry is investing in upstream projects from Texan shale to high-tech deep-water wells. Oil companies, directly and through trade groups, lobby against measures that would limit emissions. The trouble is that, according to an assessment by the ipcc, an intergovernmental climate-science body, oil and gas production needs to fall by about 20% by 2030 and by about 55% by 2050, in order to stop the Earth’s temperature rising by more than 1.5°C above its pre-industrial level.
It would be wrong to conclude that the energy firms must therefore be evil.

They are responding to incentives set by society. The financial returns from oil are higher than those from renewables. For now, worldwide demand for oil is growing by 1-2% a year, similar to the average over the past five decades—and the typical major derives a minority of its stockmarket value from profits it will make after 2030.

However much the majors are vilified by climate warriors, many of whom drive cars and take planes, it is not just legal for them to maximise profits, it is also a requirement that shareholders can enforce.

Some hope that the oil companies will gradually head in a new direction, but that looks optimistic. It would be rash to rely on brilliant innovations to save the day.
Global investment in renewables, at $300bn a year, is dwarfed by what is being committed to fossil fuels. Even in the car industry, where scores of electric models are being launched, around 85% of vehicles are still expected to use internal-combustion engines in 2030.

So, too, the boom in ethical investing. Funds with $32trn of assets have joined to put pressure on the world’s biggest emitters. Fund managers, facing a collapse in their traditional business, are glad to sell green products which, helpfully, come with higher fees. But few big investment groups have dumped the shares of big energy firms.

Despite much publicity, oil companies’ recent commitments to green investors remain modest. And do not expect much from the courts. Lawyers are bringing waves of actions accusing oil firms of everything from misleading the public to being liable for rising sea levels. Some think oil firms will suffer the same fate as tobacco firms, which faced huge settlements in the 1990s. They forget that big tobacco is still in business. In June a federal judge in California ruled that climate change was a matter for Congress and diplomacy, not judges.

The next 15 years will be critical for climate change. If innovators, investors, the courts and corporate self-interest cannot curb fossil fuels, then the burden must fall on the political system.

In 2017 America said it would withdraw from the Paris agreement and the Trump administration has tried to resurrect the coal industry. Even so, climate could yet enter the political mainstream and win cross-party appeal. Polls suggest that moderate and younger Republicans care. A recent pledge by dozens of prominent economists spanned the partisan divide.

The key will be to show centrist voters that cutting emissions is practical and will not leave them much worse off. Although the Democrats’ emerging Green New Deal raises awareness, it almost certainly fails this test as it is based on a massive expansion of government spending and central planning.

The best policy, in America and beyond, is to tax carbon emissions, which ExxonMobil backs. The
gilets jaunes in France show how hard that will be. Work will be needed on designing policies that can command popular support by giving the cash raised back to the public in the form of offsetting tax cuts. The fossil-fuel industry would get smaller, government would not get bigger and businesses would be free to adapt as they see fit—including, even, ExxonMobil.

PS: This isn't my handwriting. initially, I thought it was a joke or something lol..I have no idea what to write as I'm frying some personal beans rn, so I decided to share this beautiful article I read on "the Economist" sometimes ago. it's a lecture anyway it shouldn't be restricted to Nigeria alone. I hope y'all enjoy it too.

Donas11:
Local men and women,please join me and rejoice with me on the occasion of my 26th Birthday today... APL fall on me and everyone else.

smartzee01:
Never wanted sayin a word though, but this is from a very good source, someone very close to the former GMD's son said :
printing of appointment letter started on friday 30th of August.
Only few people were allowed to enter the printing room and no one enters with his/her phone.
The GMD has stopped/limited any form of external factors and interference on the exercise.
The recruitment can stand out to be one of the best and most transparent in the history of NNPC recruitment.
He is not sure when APL will be released.
The question we should ask ourselves is how long will it take NNPC to print our APL?
Is there any meeting/ signing or any form of approval after the printing?
After answering all this, we can make a guess as to when APL will drop.
9/10th is still feasible if everything can happen within a week which I doubt much.

Jarus:
5 Reasons APL & Tfare are Unrelated

1. Common sense: It is called transport reimbursement, not success fee or failure compensation. No interviewee lives in NNPC towers, everybody came (was transported) from somewhere.
2. Xfire, who successfully underwent the process in 2012 and got the job, and perhaps the most trusted source of experience sharing here, confirmed it.
3. Another guy (whose username I can't remember) who also underwent the 2012 recruitment but did not get the job confirmed he was paid. So we have had experience from a successful candidate and a non-successful one in the 2012 set. No reason that will change.
4. Their staff confirmed (to me, and several other sources here) that everyone will be paid
5. No precedent: It is not done anywhere - either the company reimburses or not. Never seen a case of reimbursement to only successful candidates or lack of it for unsuccessful ones.

I put on my blogger cap today. LOL

Jaolad:
Just received a call from Lazarus now that my account details dropped at the towers was rebunk by that bank. He asked me to forward my correct details which I've done.

I've officially now moved to all will be paid theory..

Sempumping:
I'm interested in this ,please I uld like to know if he gets the job . I ll quote you again when successful candidates have been contacted

larride:
Nigerians


I’m not surprised one bit. Everyone has a friend that has sure connection that “specifically” told them how thier names are on the awaited list. Some even told their friends (who are going through the recruitment process by the way) how much they paid to someone who guaranteed their names coming out.


Those that have the real connection wont say a word to anyone. Infact they will be the one doing everything they can to make it look like they got in on merit.


We will all be alright las las.



P.S: I also have a friend that said .......

Goldwatch:

ChasteGhuy ur prayer has been answered

Beaam kindly prepare a conducive sit for a local man to manage in this new association thanks.

Sempumping:
Alert is finally here .....11th July
Let me go and buy yahoza chicken

Beeam:
I can now officially confirm that there is DEFINITELY NO CORRELATION BETWEEN TFARE AND APL!

Larride and Teaser4 and d rest are just jobless graduates constituting nuisance here on a daily basis. How can u say there's correlation between APL and TFare when they told us all that everybody will be paid?

Anyways, I don't blame you, it's d people believing u I blame.

Unspoken inference: LAZARUS DON PAY ME, MAKE I GO FIND ONE CORRECT CHURCH SOW AM AS SEED ABEG, I CANNUH COMAN SPEND THEIR EVIL MONEY!

Bros Jarus, when did u do ur interview again?

Just wanna check something
