NigerianEagle:
The crypto stablecoin USDT is not the same as US$.

This is a warning to those who are rushing to convert their life savings and wealth from Naira to USDT that they are taking a big risk.

The organisation which manages USDT claims that each unit of USDT is backed by an actual deposit of $1 in a bank but they have never been able to prove this.

There is no audit report or independent verification of this, the only document they have is an attestation.

There is a possibility of a stablecoin crashing and it has happened before.

If the USDT sufferers a serious depeg and crashes you will loose all the money you have there.

Go and read up about Do Kwon and his stablecoin UST which crashed and rendered thousands of people bankrupt.

Stop putting unnecessary pressure on the Naira by rushing to Binanc and other crypto exchanges to convert your money to USDT which is not even a legal tender in any country of the world!

How does converting Naira to USDT put pressure on the naira or the USD? Currently I believe Nigerians have at least $10Bn stored up in USDT, imagine if all that desperate demand went to the parallel market for actual USD, what do you think would be the value of Naira today compared to the dollar

After graduating with degree in Witch Craft, what happens?

Do further research and drop research papers on your findings, write books, give lectures in global witchcraft and religious conferences, become a consultant in some science & tech or medical institutions, and the list goes on and on.

This school as meal-ticket/employee mentality is what has limited most Nigerian graduates

Yugoslavia247:
After studying witchcraft be sure not to ever get employed in many institutions not because you are incompetent but the fact that you know so much evil. Your boss will not like to work with someone who has a degree in witch craft.

Best thing after that is to go to Ogun state and start the mining factory.

We all know what is mined on Ogun state.

The essence of going to school isn't to get a certificate and seek employment. The reason people go to school is to get an education and become a problem solver or a value giver in the society based on the education that they have received,

I wish the Bible allowed men to married two wives...

This our Christian women wahala too much ..

Head slammers women no dey bhave this way...

There's nowhere in the scriptures where the bible prohibited marrying two wives. Matter of fact Polygamy is biblical and you know what isn't biblical? Church Wedding, Christmas, etc

Sabadon:
It will favor me and my family

Only a person with a dark and evil heart says this kind of prayer and Nigerians think it's alright. So it doesn't matter what happens to others or the impact on others, as long as it "Favours You And Your Family..." That's all that counts

The same mindset the leaders have when looting the treasury, the same mindset the judges have when they collect hugh sums of bribes and administer Injustice.

This is why the country can never be developed, too many morally bankrupt, wicked, thoughtless, and heartless people

Pls I'd like to find out why Luxurious Buses (Marcopolo) do not travel during the day.

I have family members who are plus sizes and wouldn't want to travel at night. The conventional 13-seater buses are usually very uncomfortable during long-distance travel and we're seriously searching for alternatives most especially Marcopolo Buses but it seems they don't travel in the day.

Anyone with a specific reason, kindly help.

Someone from Law got an interview invite this week

Pls, do you know when they'll be having their interviews? I know someone who also wrote for Law but she is yet to be contacted.

NLNG recruitment process takes quite some time. It could span between one to two years. If you are involved, wear patience like a cloak.

That's not a good reputation for such a great organization like NLNG, I hope they can improve and close out the recruitment process within a year at most.

ntukcs:
I even wrote mine in May, up till now no info on next stage.

Random Question!!!

Does anyone know why they're sending the test invites in batches? I mean it's an online test and it seems it's going to be SHL for everyone

Imagine someone who wrote in May and will have to wait till October/November before they're done ( I'm just assuming...)

It'll be more understandable if the batches come at the interview stage.

So this is a very strange story which I think about till this day.

It was October 1st 2019 and I am coming to Nigeria with Lufthansa from Manchester and the stopover is Frankfurt. And so we get to Frankfurt and we had to ride this trolley tram bus thingy to our terminal.

That’s where I saw this character. He was sat in front of me clutching a small handbag. That’s all he had On him. His eyes looked cold and dead like someone who has seen everything there is to see in life and he had checked out of humanity. He had like a long Islam goatee. Young guy, maybe early thirties. He sat there and clutched his bag and stared with that dead empty look. He wasn’t being deported. He was on a voluntary journey of his own. I watched him for a little while but then we got to the terminal and alighted and I never saw him again.

I took the flight to naija. Got the cab at the airport and started the journey to the Airbnb I had booked in magodo. It was an evening and up in the sky were stork birds and eagles and the atmosphere was dusty looking as the sun was setting. So as I was in the car on the express about 3 miles away from the airport I saw someone climbing the dividers of the express way and trying to cross over to the other side to the bus stop to catch a bus , I adjusted my eyes very well and guess who it was? It was the strange guy who sat in front of me on the tram-bus in Frankfurt. He had absolutely no luggage with him. He had just the same small bag I saw him with and he was in the same clothes

Till today I always wonder what that guys story is . Did he actually walk out voluntarily on his own out of Frankfurt with a tiny bag and walk into the streets of ojota with nothing but the same bag and dangerously crossing the expressway ? Was he remote controlled into Nigeria ? It’s a very strange episode. I think of that guy to this day

Essenza01:
I really don't know anymore, i just did my budget for the month and i am scared, i have cut from everywhere possible and i fear for my self.. i dont have a GF, Wife, Children.. my salary is N400,000 and i have added side businesses and one or two's to even survive.. but with this fuel increase, what else is left... zero savings..

- Rent - N108,333/mth (1,300,000/12)
- Fuel for car - N180,000 (36k for 5-6days)
- Auto maintenance - N30,000/mth (service/repair)

- Feeding - N62,000 - (N2,000/day)
- Health miscellenous - N5,000/mth
- Dstv - N4,500/mth
- Data - N7,000/mth
- Recharge card - N3,000/mth

Total = N556,500...

My rent is average rent for where i stay, its a two bed flat, i use the other room for home office..

Feeding is N2,000/day.. its not anything out of the ordinary.. tried cooking and spent more with time wasting.

Fuel for car is at the new rate of N500/ltr, my car is a 70ltr car tank..

Auto maintenance is basic brake pads, shocks, service 2mths, tire guage, police pr, tire purchase if any, minor touch ups etc... nothing major.

Fuel for generator is 20ltr/day (2hrs or less daily)

I need help.... how are you people doing it, what am i doing wrong? The rat race is killing me..

Follow the Pareto's 80/20 Rule - Meaning that 20% of the items is responsible for 80% of your spending. Put your focus on those (House Rent & Fuel) if you want to save.

Your budget shouldn't be more than your income

I applied for the same role and no feedback yet from them

I didn't get an invite and I haven't received a rejection. Moreover my profile still reads 'In Progress' on thier portal.

Has anyone received a rejection mail yet ?

It took close to 2yrs to complete the process.... Just Woow

Hessian:


Kyari's son failed the test as an EH applicant!

Forget about his claim about lack of experience from those interviewees.

Check the NNPC thread and you will see the calibre of people that attended the interviews; some of them are on this thread now!

And how did you know he 'failed' the interview like you know the cut off mark and all other cosiderations or something. Truth is that if the GMD wants his son to be recruited into NNPC today, the guy will get his appointment letter and there's nothing you or anyone here can do about it, let's stop these baseless assumptions.

From what I've gathered, the plan for the EH had changed. NNPC has been unbundled and as such to prevent any face off and hugh pay-off sums coupled with labour contentions, the staff of the less functional arm of the organisation were reposted to fill in vacant postions in other arms instead of bringing new hands and having reason to lay the old hands off. As it stands almost all the relevant staff in Port-Harcourt refinary have been posted out to other arms of the organisation and the process had started since 2020.

As for the contract staff no one is certain yet if they're going to absorbed them however that should be the most logical thing to do instead of bringing hands from outside and start another learning process.

Regarding this NCDMB, if you don't get any official response from the organisation by end of August then that recruitment process is completely canceled and everyone can should move on. That's the most I can say regarding this for now

And what if there was no Hell?

Eno911:
Welcome to the month of June everyone in the house, we pray for God's favor upon us and our expectations for the long-awaited mail will drop sooner than we except, IJN.

Wait till July or August. Happy New Month

burantashii:
I'm very positive (100%) an update will drop from NCDMB this week...

Nobody is certain about anything with this recruitment, it's all speculations. Please let's desist from using strong affirmative statements and giving concrete timelines. We need to understand that this is a public forum hence various people tend to manage these informations differently.

Who never taya for this recruitment hands in the air, No hands?

Newcastle2023:


The latter is correct. Everything is set. The ES hasn't been on seat for the past 2 weeks. We will hear from them anytime from now. My earlier position on April, 2022 hasn't changed to the best of my knowledge. Thank you.

@Newcastle2023 you will not change.

You just can't resist the temptation of giving definite timelines, you're not ES and this is a public service role things are bound to change.

Everyone should just wait and be hopeful, whenever the mails drop it will drop.

For now lets continue doing what we do and move on with our lives so that other better opportunities don't pass us by.

The guys photos and all his social media pages should also be put up. He can run but can't hide

YoungRay007:
Please nairalanders, advise me on this issue, I am thinking of a business to do but am confuse, I was thinking of opening a restaurant in a good location but my very good friend who is a bolt driver is advising me to buy a used Toyota car and register it under bolt and start driving.

I know every business has risks and reward, please what are the advantages and disadvantages of being a Uber or bolt driver, and is it that lucrative, please reply

This is an interesting topic for me, I got a new car for my wife & I'm considering giving out the old toyota corolla 2009 model on hire purchase to a friend for N2.1Mn (Mind you the car is very clean and I already have a buy offer for N2.3Mn)


I'm expecting a weekly return of 40k/week and the potential driver (who is currently without a job) claims he can meet up, any Bolt/Uber driver to advice if I should help him or should I just sell off the car to a potential buyer, location is in Port-Harcourt.

Bbqekpa:
Those are very simple questions na
He must be a 2.2 fresh GA with mad connections.

Imagine your saddist audacity to make such assumption, that a test question is straight forward and easy doesn't make the lecturer unintelligent.

From the lecturers sense of humor it's clear his confident in his intellectual capabilities and not like most insecure bunch of fools which will use intellectual gra gra as a cover for their inadequacies.

I think the girl would have been in her 30s, yet still hustling dicck here and there for life achievement. Anyway that is one of occupation hazards attached to runs.

And who exactly are you to judge, check your life do you think you're in any way morally better than her.

Just know that you too will be judged by the all seeing Almighty
