Make una give us information concerning Direct Entry students pls.
What will their own admission pattern be?
This one that there is aggregation of UTME, PUTME and SSCE for 100level entry
what is the structure for direct entry students?

It seems to me that most of the people here are for 100level entry, nobody is talking about Direct entry. My younger sister did PUTME for computer science and she scored 63. Please does anyone have anything to say as par the determining factor for the admission of the DE students.

Cheers.

No need to stress, that 1.5 can buy you a 2 baretta, one shot gun and one AK rifle; just go on the high way and start snatching as more cars as you want. And whatever happens to you in the process, may you R.I.P


Some people could be so disgusting that they can even price a bentley for 1 million naira

couldn't have being better said.

Tipper business in my own opinion is that easy at all. I bought a 20ton tipper and gave it to someone (a friend) to manage. The first three month, the returns were good only for the story to change afterwards. I do not really know what the problem is
1. because I had to move from the town where the tipper is to another city quite far away for a new job
2. Because those times concided with the rainy season and the truck is in Ajah, so i tend not to want to argue with him too much

I am really tired. I am thinking of two options
1. To sell the truck and forget about haulage
2. To change the people operating it (manager and driver completely)

I need advice from senior collegues or even junior ones with experience.

The business no easy at all. I just cant imagine that I invested my savings only to be faced with this kind of wahala.

are u sure this is not 09. Look very well o dont short change yourself in your advert. Regards.

Hi,

I bought a tipper about 8 months ago. A friend had being in that business before so I got him to manage it and he goes out with the driver to transport sands for people, he and the driver collect their share of the money. The first three months, they brought good returns only for the story too change after then. It has turn to the proverbial "one week, oone trouble". The returns are now so low, nearly every week he has something to fix from the returns of the previous week. One thing I think that is affecting me also is the fact that I am very busy person my job does not allow me stay two often in Lagos (Ajah) where the truck is. I could be away for 2months sometimes.

Please, can I get any advice from the house of what to do.

LegacyGrp:
you are very right my dear. but let's stop badmouthing nigeria. tnx

@Legacy, you talk about bad mouthing Nigeria but what is not good is not good mana. This is terrible for this country and a show of shame even on the part of government parastatals. If this were to be a private company we go say them don come but just imagine NDLEA and FRSC. Na wa o.

Hi.
I am interested in this car.
Pls send the carfax details. we have aggreed in this forum that every car should be accompanied with the carfax details. It doesnt matter whether the car is accidented before or whether the mileage is rolled back but a buyer deserves to know . I am interested in the carfax and I can buy the ride. I have a good offer too.

Cheers.

I am looking for house or land for Sale in Port Harcourt or warri.
Port Harcourt should be around the Greater Port Harcourt area
Warri can be any location.

If you have any info you can post it or better still send to tuneski@gmail.com. Only serious people should post. Other people dont just try. Thanks.

@ Ajadudu,
I wont want us to look at it as just spraying alone. The car he brought is longer than the model you showed us. He cut the car into two to have space for the two new doors and made a roof for it. He had to increase the length of the chassis and that is where safety issues come in. He wont be the right person to tell us if the car is safe or not, we can only tell by proper structural analysis and loading with time.

@All,

I know the guy has done a good job but really this is not new in Naija. Growing up in Far northern part of the country, in the early 80 to early 90, several panel beaters convert Datsun 120Y, 160K and 140J 2 doors to 4 doors easily for Taxi. Some even relocate the position of the median since the doors of the 2-door cars then were longer than those for 4-doors to create more space for the 2 extra doors.

Sometime ago, a nigerian did something more ingenious but cutting a peaguot 505 and introduced 2 more doors producing a limosine.

For me, I think that is worth celebrating more than this.

Just my opinion, dont crucify me.

One love.

From all the replies that we have so far, the ones who have quoted values are from shell, if there is any Chevron, Mobil, total, agip, etc in the house state yours because I know shell is not the highest paying of them all and I also know that shell is not the only company recruiting people.

As for the quoted amounts, i have no doubt whatsoever. So now we have entry level for shell about 500K, at least i know that and Southsea, debosky and crowseder have confirmed that.

People, be informed these values are real and some companies even pay more.

Yesss, keep it coming, ,,,.,,
We need people from mobil, chevron, total, addax, schlum, haliburton, transoceans, you all keep it coming.

Southsea:
Wanna entry level die. recently got an offer (gradute position) from one of them and I can tell u it is over 400k per annum.

@Southsea, which company is your own.

@Poster,

Bros, hold your two hears run and go and collect the job fast. When the time comes God will look at your faithfulness and give you a better one. If you are waiting for 500k job, to me you are a very lazy person and that job might never come. Even the bible says whatever your hand finds to do, do it dutifully. No be everybody go get 500k job. It is even possible that from there you may decide to create your own and make Mega bucks.

Southsea:

Southsea:
Monthly, I meant

My brother God bless you. If you dont know, advertise your ignorance and when you are enlighten do not argue until u have a superior argument.

crowcedar:
@tunene,

Pls help me tell them o! When they were going to chop off my head, I decided not to respond again. I was truly being conservative so that ,

so that,,   No worry nothing do you.

Biina and wwheelz, how much do you guys expect? If Glo pays my Civil Engr friend about 200k (take home) to work as a mast something something engr in Maiduguri region what do you want Chevron and others to pay their engrs? And I mean entry level, I am not talking of experienced hires or people that have spents sometime in the company.

You are on your own, don't you know that payslip carries full name and personnel number. Again I say you are on your own. If you don't believe so be it, if you believe, wetin concern me. It was just for info only. When or If you get a job there, then you will understand what we are talking about. Must I convince you, as if I will get pay rise for doing so. NA WA FOR NAIJA PEOPLE.

The wave of sack within Nigerian banks since last month has been disturbing. Some of us don't just understand why it is like that. Pls Confirm if you have being sacked by any Bank and tell us the reason they gave for sacking you. Let nairalanders be informed, we want to know. Cheers.

Fellas, Never mind the house is going to have an anphi-theatre like those of the old roman empire including an olympic size football, basketball, volleyball, golf course and polo. Hockey too will be designed as part of the house. These people in govt are just rogues. Only God will deliver this nation. YEYE PEOPLE.

Bros,

I have a feeling you have not used this service before. It is not new. It has being around for about sometime though sometimes when there is a promo the base value drops from 7k to 5k. The trend is usually that as the days draw close to the date of the flights the prices increases towards 20,000 or more. So may be the days to the date u chose are close. Choose some far dates and u will get the advertised 6k. Cheers.

Yea, your friends salary is good. That is about the amount most oil company pay in Nigeria though slightly above that for 4yrs experience. When I say oil companies, I mean operators like shell, mobil, chevron etc and not saipem, Adamac, Ascot etc nor do I mean Schlumberger, Haliburton, or Transocean, though these last three pay well too.
If he is enjoying his career with Statoil, he had better stay. Another wahala with naija is you can not even enjoy your money effectively, if it is not Infrastructure problem, it is government issue, then comes thieves, robbers, kidnappers, they wont just allow you spend the money you worked for as you like.

First those guys abroad do not know what people in the oil industry here earn. they feel the money here in Nigeria is rubbish so they cannot come. I would have love to know how much he earns in Norway and therefore advice whether he should consider a job in Nigeria.

As per the issue of next two years, If things remain the same (which is not probable), then salaries in the oil industry is not an issue. But in the industry now we are drown in the ocean of fear of the unknown. There are so many issues - Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB), selling of some of the blocks to the Chinese (these ones don't even understand what labour law is), renewal of licences and several other politics surrounding the industry. One thing I know is that most of our "big men" especially politicians want to have oil blocks and they are trying to use the Chinese to acquire them.

What I think is that the Chinese will come with the idea of low salaries and large profits for the shareholders and I believe Nigerian government and the "big thieves" called men (politicians that have chopped our money) will accept. Remember so far every of our leaders have looted our treasury including Yar Adua.

All these are speculations. We are still waiting for facts to jump on our face.

micktosin:
Please my fellow brothers! Just wondering if a salary within a range of 15- 25million Naira is Realistic, for a British expatriate hoping to work in Nigeria? I'm a certified IET Chartered engineer with 4 years experience under my belt. Cheers!!!

Why not, it is very possible. From what you wrote, you said he is a chartered engr. Well a job in the oil sector can pay you more than that. I know an expat from Romania. He a CSWIP in welding and inspection, all he does is to oversee the nigerian welding and NDT QA/QC personnel and he double checks the films from the NDT and gives his reccommendation. This guy earns about 2m per month (though he is paid in Euro) in one of the producing companies. I know another expat that works with one service company, though he is at almost a management level, his salary is about 1.6m with other benefits for management staff based on the companies performance.

So my brother it is possible. Cheers.

The only risk is with your wife, if she is now stable and can concieve a child and deliver it safely, then my brother go ahead no Wahala, you can never give birth to AS child never, never!!!!

BIG FOOOOOOLLL!!!!!!!
