^^ Still thinks GEJ was an anti-corruption crusaded.

Good morning all!

I woke earlier this morning, tried checking out my notifications, messages and trending news online. It came to my notice that there has been so much doubt about this President Muhammadu Buhari Federal Government Npower scheme. So many called it trash, some say its Nepotism, political jamboree, media stunts, APC propaganda, lies, 2019 campaign strategy and all sorts of nonsense. I can agree with everyone that the federal government has got so many things wrong since they took over power few years ago but this one, I refuse to agree, they have TRIED!.

You see, Few months ago, I was on the verge of 'entering the street', if you know what that means, as in I was frustrated, due to a lack of a regular paying job, with a high class graduate certificate, high potential to work, personal development strategies, killing CV, well prepared, regularly surfing job sites and applications on job boards, roaming about every evening seeking to find "worker needed" written on any wall, so I could apply in person, in the guise of evening strolling,to no avail. From nowhere the FG came with a plan for we the unemployed, whom nobody cared about, I heard someone say Npower FG employment on TV, by then I was used to any word that sounded like employment, and so I Googled it, and registered immediately without even going through all the conditions, I only made sure I had all requirements needed. I carried them all on my phone, after we were visited by some armed robbers who made away with my laptop and belongings, I now value my phone more than our flat screen Tele, so I guard it like my file-jacket of certificates. I even went as far as registering for three sections of the program, when I saw the benefits, the teach, build, knowledge - software, pardon me for mentioning that, that was frustration.

Lo and behold, FG remembered us after we registered, some weeks later, we underwent an assessment online, like play, we were shortlisted after some weeks, and verified after some weeks, I was following everything even @akandeoj on Twitter, N-POWER COMMUNITY group on Facebook, checking my TV for related news, even by 'find in page' on Opera mini, I continually searched for the combination of the phrase N-power- FG_employment_jobs, just to make sure I was following well, a good follower if you may say so.

Some friends even discouraged me, even one of them payed #20,000 to one LG Chairman and yet wasn't shortlisted, I said to myself, 'its been God' because it's a free FG scheme. I went further to quit all manner of sinful acts I maybe into, as in just the little things we do that are wrong, even the 'free browsing' wey I dey do, I stopped then, in prep for 2017 a blessed year, I believe, as I saw God blessing Nigerian youths through this FG scheme.

Alas! One afternoon, 30th of December, 2017, I was lonely at home, as I could not travel because I was dead broke, nothing to eat, I have been eating just rice since the week before, a message came in, I ignored it because I am now friendly with Access bank and MTN since it's yuletide, thinking that was there usual Seasons Greetings bla bla bla, I eventually touched the phone and saw its an alert, I hastily swiped open the message and behold it read,

"access>>>Credit Alert

Desc: N-10007125329/N-Power December
Time: 30/12/16 @03:05 PM

Just to tell you my account was empty and dry at that time. The way I jumped, I almost hit my feet on a side stool. I was so happy that the hunger flew out even before I could think of how to get the Transport fare to withdraw a bit of it. It was that serious!

Okay, here I am reading this blogs and seeing some comments, and I'm like "WTF, who are these! ".
Well, some may say, 'maybe he was paid to do this', or 'atleast he could afford a phone' or 'he even ate costly rice for a week straight' or 'this guy is really jobless to write all these'. Yes was jobless until the FG intervened, the least I could do is appreciate, I have a phone, that's even one of the questions asked during the assessment, and mind you the FG is paying the poor #5000, I guess I don't belong there.

ALL I WANT TO SAY IS THIS, LET ALL WHO ARE BENEFICIARIES OF THIS PROGRAM, STAND UP AND DEFEND THIS OUR GOVERNMENT, IT HASNT BEEN EASY FOR THEM, LET'S SUBDUE ALL THOSE TRYING TO PAINT THIS GOVERNMENT BLACK.

I am neither APC nor PDP, I don't even care about politics that much, but this I must be grateful for, for I see the work being done.

I can keep writing, but this is where it really affects me, so this is where I drop it for today... THANKS

It's the Hand of God moving things in our favor. Same testimony with you bro. Going through this thread just opened my eyes to see what God did for me. Blessed be the Name of the LORD.

Nma27:

Cultivate an attitude of gratitude. Stop spewing bitterness and in-gratitude.

zingzang:
where in ph do you stay?

I stay in Oyigbo.

Hey guys, Yes I do. I'm new in PH. Anybody around?

unilagfreshest:
She is F*CKINGLY* MARRIED.. Or what do u guys think?.. THE END

Our thoughts don't matter. I might do the same. Even though I know that it's not the right thing to do.

So what does that make me?

You just gotta love Dangote. The man has a knack for looking unassuming and laid back.

But behind the cool exterior, the brain is working beyond the speed of light.

I agree bruv, but the question is: How many people can bear to be without their beloved DSTV's for two months?

At the end of the day, the least that would happen would be a slight re-adjustment by my fellow Nigerians.

Multichoice can act with impunity because they know that Nigeria and indeed Nigerians are 'ppwerless' - for now!

Trut:
But they have power to suck our money, I suggest Nigerians should boycott their services and go for the alternative.

Ok, Prof. Wole Soyinka made the statement being credited to him. So?
Prof. Wole Soyinka did not make the statement being credited to him. So?

No beef, but with this guy at the 'helm' of affairs, and T.A. Orji pulling the strings; Abia has no where else to go than down.

The election tribunal, hopefully would right the wrongs and return the stolen mandate back to its rightful owner: Dr. Alex Otti.

I agree with you, this is a wrong move for the President-elect to make now.

Yes the manner of the Africa Independent Television (AIT) has not been entirely ethical or honest, but... They have the right to cover the President-elects movement if they so wish.

Gen. Buhari, wrong move sir.

Issued a 'Directive'... Hmmm, this word sounds sinister.

Igwe9:
Wrong move in MHO, not allowing them to cover the news is already a bad news. Is he the head of the commission that is in charge of the broadcasting ethics and standards?
He better let the sleeping dogs be!

What do you expect? It"s nothing personal, Jonathan is no longer in power so he is 'useless' to these business men.

Its nothing personal.

In a situation like this, it would be very tempting to hit it.

But bros, the stage they started in was too early to carry such a responsibility as a relationship.

But for me right now, Haba! Getting into a word spar, or put offs, and/or reframings. Well its the way the started, for me now. Its a tentative No!

But if I had also entered into a relationship at the same age, I would have hit such a woman. In such a situation its so easy to hit. But once its done, you would have to live your whole life wishing you hadn't hit her.

Guys be hating anyhow on an innocent niqqa, while they would have done worse things if they were in his shoes.

Its not working. I should have just jejely subscribed for an Android bundle for 2k. Instead of this scam of a bb complete that doesn't work with other devices.

Meanwhile in the notification they sent me, Airtel said it was also compatible with other devices.

jokesmaster:
Set APN to blackberry.net or blackberryx.net and rock!

I've tested it!

Nigeria is already bad as it is, why are we the citizens compounding our problems with our hands?

I swear down, I thought Armed Robbery had become a thing of our horrible past.

Is/was your wife a screamer before the kids started rolling in? If she was then focus on pleasing her some more.

I suggest you smoke some grass, it would help a little, as it would make 'everything' appear to be new. Then just let the 'spirit' lead you *Big Grin*

As for your kids, be honest with them in a way that they can understand.

But the topics making FTP though!

Damn! How is this done?

Not cool, this is depravity at its finest.

Wait o, why aren't those big toothy smileys appearing anymore.
