Politics › Re: South-South APC Endorses Adams Oshiomhole For Position Of National Chairman by TGM2015: 8:52pm On Apr 23, 2018*

Quality20:
but y not oyegun? Can't they see that d old man has tried a lot for d party? Oshiomole shd b encouraged to go to d sanate

I don't think Oyegun did anything good for the party. Personally as a Nigerian, his leadership supervise the current crisis we face as a country. When there are rifts between executive and Senate, Nigeria and her economy will suffer. For three years, he can't resolve the internal crisis of APC, which have reflected on the budget processes, unsettled Senate (just imagine APC members having up to 3 different caucus with different opposing objectives, to the extent that they are suspending their own members who are not against the party decision but an individual in the party).
Oyegun leadership is a failed one and his failed leadership has cost us as Nigerians so much pain. How on earth, will Oyegun be comfortable with Senate foot dragging National budget that was prepared based on his party manifesto for months, that guy should be sack.
But to be candid, APC as a party is full of confused fellows as I really don't why sensible one among them have not move and stand for Oyegun impeachment
(as PDP did towards last election) immediately after the NASS principal officers saga. That in my personal opinion was the party affairs and not that of the President as many people insunated then.

Education › Re: "OAU Professor, Richard Akindele, Also Asked Me For Sex" - Graduate In Ireland by TGM2015: 2:29pm On Apr 11, 2018

NwaAmaikpe:

Sex-for-grade is technically a form of trade-by-barter.
I don't think trade-by-barter is prohibited by the Nigerian constitution.

Why will a female student go to a lecturer to plead for grades?
Pleading for grades puts you in the precarious position of having to pay for the grades.
And it will be unfair or rather extortive of a lecturer to demand cash from female students who barely have any when they can pay in kind.

Life is simple,
Schooling is simpler.
If you are good, you'd definitely get the grade you deserve.
A good student begs no one for grades.
Most of these accusations are blackmails from non-performers who actually threw themselves at these lecturers.

Seems you do not have higher institution experiences or you attended a private university. Not all cases are trade-by-barter, there are very intelligent people that some lecturers failed because of sex, not buying textbook/handout and paying some fee for a course. The trade-by-barter things is mostly seen in private universities but in public university victimization by lecturers are order of the day. Check from Wole Soyinka till date...there are many instances that I can give. This victimization things is not done by male lecturers alone.

AutoReportNG decided to take a stroll from Falomo all the way to Muri Okunola, then to some areas in Lagos. The pictures speak for itself, not this is not a sponsored post, this is just a reporter's reportage from his angle.

In addition to AutosBay reply, the non passage of 2018 budget may be the critical element for FG not to kick start the 2017 NPower programme. As it is now FG government cannot spent beyond their spending for the same period last year. Unfortunately this same budget is still with the NASS since November 2017 (almost 5 months now).
The worst of it all is that nobody is talking about it but we are quick to blame Buhari for all the economic woes of the country and praising the same set of people who sabotage the rapid growth and development of the country through deliberate acts of slowing down processes and confirmation for their selfish and personal/political interests.
My advice is for you is to put off your mind from the programme untill you hear that 2018 budget has been passed by the NASS.

Family › Re: I Am Beginning To Despise My Parents... Am I Overreacting? by TGM2015: 4:46pm On Mar 25, 2018

Desirae:
Hello everyone.

I come from a very overprotective and irrational family. I just turned 30, I’m gainfully employed and doing so well in my career.

However, my social life is suffering. Most times I want to spend weekends with friends, or just hang out with colleagues after work, but by 7:00 I’ll already have over 15 calls from my parents asking if I’m on my way home. Yeah, I live with my parents.

Presently, I’ve been searching for an apartment so I would move out of their house. I need my freedom and independence. I feel like I can’t breathe!

Even weekends, when I decide to go out and chill with friends, they ask all manner of questions “who are you doing with, where are you going to, hope you’ll be back before 5”. Seriously! I’m 30 years old! And they’ll be the ones asking why I haven’t brought a husband. Where will I find him? In my office? Or in my bedroom?

The last straw was last week. My best friend lost her mum. When I told my own mum, her response was “oh she has finally died? Ehn, shey she’s been sick. Why do you now want to spend the weekend with her? For what”

I was furious, but I didn’t say a word so I won’t regret anything. How would she feel if her husband died and someone said “oh he’s finally dead?” Even my dad doesn’t help matters! How insensitive could people be?! They seem to forget death is inevitable. And anyone can go at anytime.

I’ve made up my mind to move out this month. I love them, I wish them well, but I can’t do all of this madness with them. I’m done being controlled and told what to do and what not to do. I’m not a kid. Most of my mates have more than 2 children.

I love them, but I’m done!

No, you are not overreacting but don't move out of that house. They love you and you love them but they don't understand and trust you enough to be able to handle the situation that single ladies of your age face.
Firstly, living under your parents and allowing your friends and who to life partner to visit you in your parents' house may be help in maintaining a responsible future life partner though it never a guarantee of such. It allows your parents assess them and give appropriate advice. Bet me those parents especially the mother are "witch and prophets", they have some instinct or spirits that sense dangers that is decades ahead. Ooh, they won't allow them in? That's very simple...

... Sit them down and discuss with them from the own perspective (I assume you have not done this or you do it wrongly). Tell them, I know you love me, you want me to be a responsible future wife and husband that will had more time for the husband and children than friends and parties (I assumed that will be the reason for their "over protection", as you may see it)... I know all these and assured you.... (give them assurance and display convincing attitudes and actions to increase their confidence that you can MATURELY handle the life situation of single ladies with good job...). After assurance, let them to know what you really don't about their actions which tends to see you as that old secondary school girl... you possibly can give them your expectations of you from them... more more things but the overall is trust your caring and loving parents, discuss you likes/dislikes with them, and have open dialogue with them on your relationship, friends and outing... You discover how much water will runs from your eyes during the " grin

-day".

Best of all good lucks to you.

Politics › Re: The Truth About 'Lagos' Sunburn Yacht Hotel by TGM2015: 12:03pm On Mar 21, 2018

edogirl2:
Sorry, this is way longer than necessary, but with nairaland, it is sometimes necessary go long.

I was very much involved with the Yacht in question - right at the highest level. I had meetings with very high level officials of the bank that financed the purchase, and as such had access to tons of real and genuine information and documents concerning this yacht. I know the names of the owners, and I was on the yacht up to a few weeks before it was sold.

I can tell you a lot about this yacht.

BELOW IS THE 100% TRUE STORY OF THE YACHT!

______ The 'Princess' Sunborn yacht hotel was constructed around 2002 by Sunborn International Finland.

______ Sunborn International placed and managed the Yacht in London docklands up till 2007 or thereabout.

______ Around 2007, a Nigerian team made up of a former AD - turned PDP (?) Senator and his partner bought the yacht.

______ Purchase price was ridiculously above true market value and transaction was financed by a local bank (name withheld).

______ By & large, the loan was secured on the yacht itself! No other security!! - very common amongst banks during the Soludo bubble.

______ The Senator was able to use his lingering contact with ACN govt in Lagos, to get the then Lagos State commissioner
for tourism to throw govt embrace around the project on the basis that it would boost tourism and raise Lagos's international profile.

______ On the day the yacht arrived in Lagos, thousands of Lagosians and several state officials and the said commissioner were there before TV cameras smiling and basking in the glory of this new toy that would catapult Lagos's international standing to new heights.

______ Unfortunately, by the time it arrived Lagos, the owners had spent so much buying it, they had nothing left to run it. And the bank would not lend a kobo more! To make matters worse, the two buyers fell out over how to take the business forward.

______ Few months passed, then years. Now the yacht was becoming so badly degraded that it risked becoming a health hazard.

______ With AMCON on the rampage, and rumour sipping out about the shoddy nature of the financing of the yacht purchase, the financing bank, wanting to avoid public embarrassment, decided to exercise its right to sell.

______ By mid-2012, the bank put the yacht up for sale.

______ The senator protested placing warning notice in some national newspapers against anyone buying. But he couldn't pay the bank what he owed it, so the bank paid no attention.

______ After several months on the market, the bank found an Asian buyer. The Yacht was quietly towed out of Lagos I believe on boxing day 2012 with most people getting wind only after the yacht was out of Nigerian waters.

Based on what I know, the yacht cost around N4.5 billion, but the bank got back less than 20% of that money.

Moral of the story

1. Lagos State did not invest one kobo in the yacht and so Lagosians have lost nothing
2. Tinubu had nothing to do with this yacht
3. This was a private project that failed largely because of financial incapacity, greed and infighting between two owners
4. The big loser was the lending bank which got back a fraction of what it lent and has no prospect of getting more from the debtors.

Thank you for this

Mstchewwww!!!

Sorry, I think my post was not directed to you... But hold on, you mean the only source of information is the YouWin official at the training centre? The last time I checked, ministry of finance has active Facebook and Twitter account even contact details on their official website, they actually need not to kidnapped the minister of finance.

Moreover, the last programme, which I assume must have been under the last administration, they can as well contact previous beneficiaries (I am sure you not ask me how) or asked the centre officials about how the previous beneficiaries go about it and at what point they submitted their business plan... You may be surprised to find out the that process is going as it should be because obviously payment of support grant is not what is next according to what the OP posted. Check some recruitment trends and see how people tends to get relief knowing how long previous recruitment takes and stages that were involved. I think my examples relates well with this as you can not relates with the GTB and Dangote examples in the context it was used.

There might likely be trends for previous beneficiaries from this forum self... I am surprised at the level of your reasoning and possibly solution that you suggested though... Thank you for the reply anyway, it makes me give more insight into my previous post.

Then inquire about it. To be candid, you guys should have know and planned ahead as you are concluding the training. You don't wait for information to be given to you but seek to find information necessary for the future as early as possible and accurately as you can.

Real entrepreneurs seeks and pay, in fact sometimes heavily, for information about the future. That is why most of them invest in business analytical tools and programs in order to predict, plan and conquer challenges even before they occur. That is what our political elites do not have. They don't buy the idea of "when will get to the bridge we shall cross it", they will always cross the bridge before getting there. They will draw variety of bridges they are likely going to see in the future and devise a means to crossing it even at it worst stage. Go and ask GTB and Dangote.

The federal Government asked the youths to apply for the rebranded YouWin Connect program. They promised that the 5000 successful candidates would attend a master class training thereafter their businesses would be funded ( see first picture).

Today we were shocked when we were told in Asaba Master class training that there is no fund for us. The 5000 successful candidates would like everybody else apply for another You win program tagged YouWin Connect series funding 1, the only we are sure of is certificate.

Why would FG choose to scam the youths?

Can I ask you some questions?...

1. Have you people submitted your business plan?
2. Have they get back to you on how successful your business plan is? Note that business plan is a critical document on which decisions to fund your "learned entrepreneurial skills" will be based. In fact no financial institutions will grant you loan with a good business plan.
3. Also note that from what you posted and circled in the first picture, not all the 5,000 successful applicants will receive the fund but those who have developed greater entrepreneurial skills in their line of interest through the training and utilised it in preparing a visible and viable business plan. So are you in this category?
4. If you are in this category and the program coordinator have communicated that you business plan has been accepted, then, as at today, can the FG pay any money without being appropriated for in the budget?
5. If actually you have learn from the training, the answer to the above should be at your finger tip. Was the money appropriated for and in which budget? 2017 or 2018 budget?
6. The answer to the above, is the main issue to be solve.

Apologies if I made a wrong conclusion... with your posts and replies, I strongly believe that if you are among the 5,000 successful candidates, you obviously will not be part of those that will be financed and if you are lucky (I mean lucky), you may not be able to maintain the sustainability of the business. Because for every growth and expansion in business, getting accurate, reliable and realistic business, financial and political including economic indexes and information is crucial. It seems you lack this but focused more on getting the money more.

In terms of quality and durability TECNO is better than Infinix but on quality pictures Infinix better than TECNO. Any TECNO and Infinix products of THAT price will be good.

My advise though is that you should go for Nokia 3 or higher or Huawei Honour 6A but make sure that the phone you are to but has
1. 2GB/3GB RAM
2. 16GB/32GB ROM

Nokia 3 may be a good choice for the amount you have because it has 4G LTE for all network in Nigeria including that of glo. Huawei Product is good in terms of network reception. You may also check out Motorola, they are just getting back into Nigeria market now.

Sleep more, at least 5 hours a day. A good sleep I mean. If you think too much you might be deprived of good sleep.

Drink more water and take more protein. At worst, spare N250 every week for milk and tea. Buy four N50 powder peak milk with lipton (if you are not allergy to it, coffee is never a good option for reading purpose) in a tea cup. Use can take it two times a week or four times a week. It is was best to sleep after taking the tea.

Above all, take away and avoid distrations that may make you loss concetration. Work on your minds to be focus, read in a place where you can not easily be distracted and most importantly get a specific time and place to read everyday. You system will adjust and be ready to assimilate with time. Always start with subject you are most interested in first to buid your reading habits.

2. Postage Stamp - you can get that at any NIPOST office, standard stationery stores or book shops. These are easily accessible at Marina, the bank's head office.
3. Notary Seal - you can get this from some law Chambers or any known rotary lawyer. The good news is that somehow at every documentation or during the TS, one or two rotary lawyers always come around to help out.

I also have a somewhat personal question to ask your if you don't mind. Pls respond to my pm.

TS will possibly start 2-3 weeks from now. You do not necessarily need to complete/submit all required documents most especially the guarantor forms before TS, you will be giving grace till last week of your TS. But the best is to complete your submission at least first week of training school because of the demands of your trainings.

Iryneterri,
Thanks. Lesson well learnt. But how can we distinguish between genuine beggars and fake?. These days some give money to beggars and land themselves in ritual killers Den

Simple, listen to your inner self. If your spirit or mind tells you to give any beggars money do give, our instinct is always the best judge. However, the act of not giving is not a sin but the motive of not giving. If your motive is pure as stated, I believed that there people in your neighbourhood, workplace, even people you see regularly or children who are unable to go to school, that you know need some help to the extent that your mind do regularly/sometimes bring their needs to your thinking. You can think of little things you can do to help them even if you hardly have enough.

It's not compulsory that your giving must be to the beggars but to everyone whom you see are in needs of things such as words of advice, moral supports (eg helping an old/disable person cross the road), speaking out for the oppressed, voluntary witnessing (truthfully) for people in helpless situations. I know of a friend who try his best reaching out to an accused on murder case to be a witness in a court case because he witnessed the scene of the incident. His witnessing save the lady as the accident was caused by the LASMA official. Unknowingly, the woman recently lost her husband with husband's family taking over the properties leaving her to solely cater for four young children with 13 years as the oldest.

The summary is help people as much as you are capable of but in line with your belief, instinct and personal convictions.

@TGM2015, Compliments of the season. Thanks for your comments, they've been greatly helpful.

Please I'll like to know if this recruitment also covers for other union bank subsidiaries like Union Capital and Union Homes or is it specifically for its commercial banking arm?

Please note this information

"In compliance with CBN’s Regulation 3, UBN is divesting of all non-core banking subsidiaries, which aligns with our core banking business model. Union Bank, United Kingdom (UBUK) will remain the only subsidiary of the bank."

Hence the recruitment is for Union Bank of Nigeria Plc, thank you.

Thank you because am naturally quiet and most of my group members didn't allow me say anything but I spoke only when necessary

You are good to go, as far as your personal presentation is above average and at aggregate your average scores fall between the highest performing candidates. Meaning, let's say the total number to be taken out 10 people is then all scores will be ranked (please don't ask further questions on this), the highest 3 will be picked.

People like you when selected will be deployed to Middle or Back office. As I have mentioned earlier, your personal presentation carries more weight than group. Only to make sure that you contributions meaningfully in the group work and not necessarily dominating the discussion. Above all, all attributes are good for some roles, so everyone in the group will perform well as far as the make meaningful contribution either once or throughout the discussion.

Congratulations to all who have been assessed. Majority of you perform above average, hence, I may conclude that if anyone is yet to receive invitation for assessment centre, the possibility of ever getting it is zero.

The invitation for medicals will possibly be sent by last week of December or first week of January. This is logically affirmed as the Training School was planned to start by mid/late January (all things being equal).

Please note that chances of being selected is not based on when or where the candidate were being assessed. And also noted that your certificate and documents are not being verified in the assessment centre. The originals to be sighted to confirm if the candidate possesses the minimum qualification requirements for the recruitment. Verification of results are done after the documentation and Training school, usually by an third party company.

Wishing you all the best in everything.
