Unfortunately, the boys appear to be guilty of what they were charged with.

Conspiracy is as much an offence, and defenses of, 'we didn't mean it' can't be taken seriously when the group already had history.

How come? Somebody that his tenor at OPEC is coming to an end?

Does death take any of that into consideration?

Let's catch up off nairaland. Please send me an email at techhire11@gmail.com

Of course, my plan is to gather sth n set up one minute passport stand at my school campus n gradually metamorphose it to business centre

Pardon my curiosity - how much will you save from your current work to do this?

yunus22:
exactly that's what I'm planning to do n of course you're right they pay will be much higher n prompt

You speak well. Why are you doing security work? Is there a plan to move on to something better soon?

So my friend got this job in management because he knew somebody in that company. But there is high expectations from the company for him to deliver positive results as one of the managers in that company.

This my friend is a university graduate with second class lower result and this manager position is for guys with first class results.

He has never been in management before. Infact, this friend of mine have been at home as an unemployed since 2014. He is socially awkward and easily discouraged. Now he's got this huge job with a big pay, and he is telling me that he feels like a fraud.

He asked for my advice, but I sincerely don't know what to advice him.

So I throw the topic to you guys.

How is he going to behave and probably grow some confidence to overcome this inferior complex?

There is something called impostor complex where qualified competent people often feel unqualified for their jobs.

Thats not what is happening. Your friend is actually not qualified and here's what he needs to do:


1. Be honest with himself about what he doesnt knkw and work 10 times harder to learn on the job

2. Quit that job before he ruins the company

She said she is going to vote for Atiku.

To be fair, i wasn't madly in love with her. just kinda liked her.

They're sending a delegation to the UK to liaise with the Nigerian High Commission?

So the foreign ministry can't give them updates?

Kpatakpata:
The man is not being truthful. There's war going in the North East and North West far worse than what is going on in the south East. Such statement stems from either arrogance of the person making it or hatred for the south East

Is it that you didn't read well? That's what he said!

“Unfortunately, there are many issues in the South East, and a northern voter is the worst-hit in this issue of maladministration in this country,” he asserted. “But even under that circumstance, a northern voter also believes that he is better with one united Nigeria.

Mitchewww... You don win your own state

Go back and read properly mr.

WatchYourSix:
People are evil ooo..15k per month in this harsh economy....when the employee now steal your money you'll start lamenting how you helped him with a job and pay you back with wrong.....

Some employers are just setting themselves up with all these cheap labour.....i domt care how much your cost of production is... if you cant pay decent salary, then you are not ready to be an employer of labor...

I made these exact points a few months ago. The average nigerian is just extremely exploitative.

Lighthouse50:
I think the last time i read the bible, the messiah had eradicated eye for an eye mosaic law

An eye for an eye is a doctrine of justice. Pastor Adeboye is talking about self defense, of which Jesus commanded that his disciples should buy swords.

coldsummer:
All this outrageous behavior of Nigerian politicians is annoying

Isn't this the same man that embezzled the whole funds for electricity project?

Atiku was in charge of that project

I bet 100k naira this is not the true story behind that picture.

Fairmedia:
If Nigerian jails are like this, numbers of criminals will blow up astronomically. Sweden have low numbers of criminals, Nigerians are criminal minded, using this model in present day Nigeria, will be bad for the citizenry. The harsh condition and suffering in jail is a deterrent. American jails too are harsh, with trash food, for a reason, because they have lots of criminals.

That's not it at all.

American jails are terrible because they were designed to incarcerate and exploit black men through forced labour.

spartan117:
This is false.

Most prisons in the western world don't look like this. This infact looks like a blue collar prison.

He said Germany, you are saying Western World. Why not read and understand the topic??

It is a fact that European and particularly Scandinavian prisons are far better than American prisons, and this is because of the commercialization and systemic racialization of incarceration in the States.

You're clearly not informed so take a seat please.

LordKushmann:
I was taken aback myself.. US SS i know only work on the POTUS' security detail. Even the VP na DC police dey guard am.

They do much more than that.

You're also wrong about the VP. The SS guards even mere presidential candidates and other senior members of the executive.

You are thinking of the Capitol Police, which is not the same as DC police, and they guard members of Congress.

Reference:
Please relate all these stats properly and do not hold them in isolation.
There is no relationship wage wise between a government employee and a private sector worker anywhere in the world.
A better relationship is the minimum wage which government itself sets, either the national minimum wage or governmental minimum wage.
If you want to disperse your argument we can go all the way to GDP to relate the severance package of a Supreme court judge in the US to that of Nigeria.

But in the post you quoted didnt you see what i said about the salary of supreme court justices relative to the aversge salary in the US?

Hint: its far higher.

I would be delighted to run that comparison with you. Lets look at how much they are both paid as salary and retirement benefits.

Reference:
Are you for real.
All your points are ripe for a shoot down but just this one.

Read again the definition of inflation and the rudimentary causes and then relate again to this tragedy.
Is it not clear to you that these are some of the causes of inflation in Nigeria by way of overbloated public expenditure and remunerations that do not fit or resemble productivity in any way, shape or form?

Abeg you need to sit down and think properly.
We are too far from the reality we face in this country.
Where is the man going to spend 2.5 billion?... in the midst of wanton, excruciating poverty all around his village? and you want to end crime??... wake up man.

You've really not made any well developed points so its hard for me to tackle this but let me say: i'm talking about what the real value of the money paid is, to give people context as to how much it is worth.

Paying a public servant well is not the same as flooding the country with money in overbloated projects. You might as well demand that he work for free.

Meanwhile what Nigeria suffers from is cost push inflation rather than demand pull inflation so what we need is to solve those structural bottlenecks that drive production prices up not stifle production further by killing demand the kind of economics you're thibking of.

Solving crime is not about making everone poor. Its about providing a better environment for people at the bottom. They commit crime because they have no alternative, not because someone is being paid well. I don't see a correlation between the CJ's retirement benefits and crime.

Speaking of which, how do you expect a poorly paid judiciary to fight crime and corruption??

Revolution2022:
Stop this your stupid analysis.#2.5b is a big corruption and unjustifiable.

Well you're untitled to feel its unjustifable but its a statutory allocation so its clearly not corruption.

Neoteny7:
By the standards of probity and commonsense.

Sorry but it certainly doesn't meet those standards.

All over the world, this is the best practice. Public servants like judges are put in the extraordinary position of note being able to conveniently engage in any other economic endeavour. While you and I may aspire to do business or otherwise earn more money, these citizens must content themselves with what the State offers. The State therefore must therefore compensate them appropriately well.

A US Supreme Court justice earns around a quarter of a million, well above the national average income, whereas our CJN earns the salary of a mid-level banker.

Neoteny7:
I don't understand a situation where someone will elect to become a public servant, get well compensated, retire, collect gratuity, and continue living off the commonwealth.

No public servant should earn anything beyond their severance and pension.

All these extravagant perks of renewable cars, houses, medicals, vacation, domestic staff, furniture, and such nonsense is unjustified and constitutes theft of public funds.

By what standard?

Raxxye:
This country is just not balanced; so much injustice and unfairness!
How much do retired Professors get? How much do retired headmasters and principals get? Just peanuts!

Things people don't understand:

1. The annual basic pay of the CJ is less than 4 million per annum

2. Judges and justices cannot conduct any other business leaving them with only their government pay

3. You must understand that the Chief Justice of the Federation is a critical position that can make and unmake a nation. It is a position that is subject to so much temptation that it is necessary to protect the holder from the temptation to enrich themselves after office.

4. If the CJ lives for another 20 years, the value of this sum is 7 million per month.

5. At the current rate of inflation, if untouched, this money will lose 50% of its value by year 14.

Considering all these, is this too much?

Mstick:
You're the one speaking like a drunk. Peter obi have ALWAYS said he had a house in the UK he bought in the 90's.

Instead of this lies why not get you fact right and learn to right with paragraph.

They're more than a 100 million Nigerians in poverty, you don't even need any statistics.

Nigeria currently have no middle class.

Unlike your Tinubu that's blaming unknown soldier for a certificate that he can hop on his numerous private jet to get, Peter Obi makes NO excuses.

Lol what do you mean Nigeria has no middle class? Nigeria has a huge middle class.

peeps4u:
Be careful of those quoting 1.4/1.6m. Be very careful of them.

You may check jiji, filter your search with tokunbo and have the idea how much it is sold in Nigeria

Good luck

Same price you'll see on jiji sir.

Blessedassuranc:
i think you really have an issue with comprehension

Thanks.

Blessedassuranc:
abeg lie small small. okay? See your first paragraph full of lies.. Meanwhile the lady you quoted is very correct and see you here forming " not understanding what she is saying'..

Just make your point if you have one please.

LadyRosa:
Lol....


See the personality of people sending others to prison in Nigeria, including innocent victims.

Cesspit!

I don't understand your issue with this one. Not knowing one's date of birth from a time when records were not kept as well as they are now, is not really an issue.

Now if his certificates are missing, then sure, that would be an issue but this seems like a non issue.

Privatepart00:
Praising a Governor for using public funds to do what he’s elected for?

Rest.

thebosstrevor1:
Because it is written in the aiu letter headed press release

Her ban disqualified a whole squad, that means they have nobody to replace her

I mean why are you blaming Nigerians for not choosing someone else. Could anyone have known this would happen, abi was someone more deserving overlooked for her?

thebosstrevor1:
Is it only the woman we have?

The problem about Nigerian is that they believe in the monopolisation of skills.

If someone was banned, you mean no other person can replace her?

How did you arrive at that conclusion from the articel?

Thats the clown that supported Deborah's murder.
