And Dangote is offering dis kinda job in d name of truck entrepreneur

Na so one policeman go waste person life for not giving him bribe which is against my belief.

God forbid

ebhohimimen:
Those of u who think the job is nt ok should pls back up, u can't expect som1 who graduated 6 years back to turn the offer down ok, to me this kind of job is for states and federal university graduates. The person criticism the job is frm private uni, wetin them knw? Dem no fit hustle for street, dangote should select those frm real states and fed uni

Your observations are wrong, I graduated from a federal university and have graduated for about the same years u spoke of. U saying 'wetin dem knw' is a very wrong statement. That u are cool with the idea dosnt make u more knowledgeable than someone who disagree with the program. I really don't know what to pick from ur rants up there cos they lacked facts

The church is a w. h. ore.
. Even after 2000yrs of pretence and deceit, the church has to live true to its DNA.

That the most corrupt nation in world is also the most Churchous nation in the world is not a coincidence.

Errrmmm, bros, I may not support this ur opinion, the church isn't what u called it. Its a few bad eggs with selfish motives that paint the church black.

As a christian, I believe or grew up to believe that a church should be a revered place of worship far from filth and unclean things.

Our lord and saviour Jesus, drove away people selling and buying from the synagogue of the jews, but today our pastors take their churches to the stalls and shops of traders.

Woke up late for service today, so I decided to have my service indoor, but to my greatest surprise, I noticed the noise coming from a beer parlour adjacent my house. Listened carefully and I heard them singing 'he is lord, he is lord amen' then one man was speaking in tongue.

The rate at which churches are opened in 'unclean' places this days is alarming, every shop, club, bar, brothel, motel, hotel, event centre becomes a church on sunday, this to me is unacceptable and out rightly wrong.

Can the Holy Spirit operates in such places? Our God is holy and should be worshipped in a Holy and clean atmosphere. How would the Holy spirit compete with the fridge filled with Star and Guinness behind the altar? The church banner sitting close to a smirnoff banner.

Around Bariga, a bar known for patronising 'olosho' is a worship centre the morning after, this churches don't even mind having three denominations at this same spot. There is a building at Ojuelegba bus stop housing over four different churches, this is absurd.

The most annoying of these issues is that churches are taking over residential buildings. Almost every house on main streets around Gbagada and Bariga are been converted to churches. What would happen when our churches send us all towards Mowe and Ibafo? Who will be left to worship in those churches?


The noise pollution from this places of worship is another story for another day.

I believe there should be a body to regulate the planting of churches, the areas and venues of worship with the control of noise and traffic.

This is to notify the general public that Focus Secondary School at 31, Apapa road, Ebute-metta West, Lagos is no longer in operation and wishes to advice ex-students to come and collect their waec and Neco certificate.

I don't think this advert is right, I was just going through Apapa Road yesterday and I saw the school with the name above, I entered and told the receptionist that I wanted to drop a CV, she told me the school was closing up and there would be no need.

Also I saw an advert here about a school on 10 coates streets, I got there and errrmmm................its really not a school.

Just checked for my bro and it says he has not been posted yet. And the institution he chose have begun selling forms for post UTME oooo. Wetin man go do now

Hello sir, my name is Lanre Adetoro am 16yrs old, am a web designer ,I own a forum just like this the url is Nicenaija.com i created this forum for Nigerians to discuss...... But the problem is... the situation is not encouraging I put my outmost Best in trying to get the forum running..... but it seems nobody visit the website except me....Sir i need your help to help me promote my forum sir...... thanks in advance......

Young man, u are not doing badly, I just visited ur site and I can see you modelled it with the nairaland format. U'v had 168 views today, but there is no catchy topic on your front page. Improve that and remain consistent. You have a signature on NL ur site should be ur signature, and u could spam most thread with ur site. don't be discouraged. Rome was not built in a day. Even Seun went through the same phase u are going through also.

refreshrate:
For your calmness in responding i see you only need guidance.
Guy take that offer with both hands.

Youre not the one driving sef? Just to follow driver dey observe and you would given the truck after 3 years? (please clarify)
Ever heard at all at all na him bad pass? If you get a job at shell or shlumberger abi how dem dey spell am sef? and tomorrow you were asked to leave due to the prevailing price of crude would that suffice to you as a good lemon that wont upset your tummy? Or if it was a bank and because of sanusis policies were asked to leave just like that without prior notice, thats a pretty sweet big and juicy lemon right?

An entrepreneur is someone who is willing to do the type of things others wont want to do in order to live the kind of life others can only dream of living.

Not everyone has that spirit i must admit...truthfully its not for everyone.

For me i think its laudable what Dangote and Carlos are doing if yo can think through this rather than allowing your ego and emotions get to you.

How long is 3 years my brother? Wizkids first album is older than that (and hes been dishing out crap ever since) and in three years *visualize with me* this truck is yours.

You now begin your own haulage business, youve learnt most of the tricks of the trade in 3 years with your driver. So no driver can come and give you one story tomorrow. Youre turning in steady revenue, apply for a loan to get a second truck or maybe even buy one of your colleagues own and you now have two.

Then you keep at it maybe one truck is reduced to local trips youre able to get another or maybe even two, bear in mind in 3 years you have gained mad experience and established relationships along the way so no driver you hire can come and hoodwink you.

The principles of success dont vary beyond a + or - 5 variance from what i just told you.

if shell like make dem leave Nigeria sack all their staff, we are a consumer nation and supply chain distribution is one thing we wont ever do without.

I swear to you any complaints you wife had in these initial 3 years will die and you will become ehn? Super husband. Best part you dont need to leave home again na on top phone you go dey monitor driver(s) sebi they were complaining you were not home for 3 years, ahswear if your wife doesnt ask you to be leaving the house just so she can be free from the way youre always making her cook for you and the alarming rate of your eating eba, dont talk to me again.

Its an initial sacrifice but well worth it.

Sorry i misjudged you as unmarried, get your wife in line with the process. im yet to see the woman who wont fall in love (all over in your case) with a man who has a plan.

Bros. I was going over this thread again and I swear, this is the best advice/comment on here. Its humour filled, very objective, factual and very tru about the nigerian economy. Reading this again and am kinda having a rethink about the whole process.

Once again, thanks. Let's see how it goes.


Someone saw this thread and had to travel to Obajana, he was bounced at the gate and had to contact me, I did the needful and he got the information necessary and he's on his way to the Ibeshe plant now.

This is total rubbish. All u wrote up there are fallacy. I haven't seen where a yoruba woman will put 5cubes of maggi in a stew or soup. Am sure the Hausas uses maggi more than any other tribe.

Sile12 nice job bro. God bless u for this insightful and touching thread

refreshrate:
This guy has chopped all my credit o no be me give all the advice?

Lol

Serioisly, you have no idea how good it felt to actually have someone to argue with intelligently on Nairaland. it's a rarity and I am honored indeed to have had this privilege today.

Hope we meet again on some other issues.
God bless you too my brother

Lol,

Am following u straight away.

Thanks for your time

czar1988:
Its graduates like the OP that make ppl say Nigerian graduates are half baked, why come here and rant, didn't u see the terms of the job before u applied, lets assume u were drunk when u applied, when u were called, didn't they ask u if u were willing to follow d truck, i'm sure u said yes that was why d text was sent to u, stop discouraging ppl, not evrybody loves a sit at an office job, some ppl are adventurous n would love the offer.
-As regards the risk part, some ppl wake up by 4am evryday, and are at bus stops by 5am is that not risk, and spend abt 2hours just to get to there place of wrk, to and fro, they spend abt 5hours on the road each day, is that not risk?they get home by 10pm, and are expected to wake by 4am d nxt day, is that not risk to there health?
- frm the OPs writeup, all i can deduce is that the OP nova see life, he hasn't seen things, he's in a comfort zone, if to say him be person wey don walka, him for know wassup
- As regards the renumeration, monthly allowance will be paid, allowance will be doubled if u meet the monthly target and there is also trip allowance
-To anybody feeling discouraged, at all at all na him be witch, nobody employs someone without experince these days, just hold this one first, if something better comes up, than u can switch....Thank u

Sir u made some good point, but the name calling is not necessary, u do have a good knowledge of the offer. I don't respond to comments with abusive words but due to the fact that I could deduce from ur write up that are only out to help others who might feel discouraged by my assertions, I choose to respond.


1. When I was called I wasn't told I will follow a truck.

2. When asked if I can, although no one asked but my colleagues my answer was no

3. The job requirements states that: first degree or HND in any discipline. 2.Prior experience in transport or fleet management is desired but not compulsory. So as u can see no where was it stated that driving is compulsory.

4. The job description states that : we have 7,000 trucks to share with hardworking and committed individuals with great business acumen willing to manage, and operate a truck if necessary by appointing there own driver ( who will pass our screening).

So nowhere was it stated that we would drive or follow a truck, it was stated that we will need to make the truck always available When needed. So please get ur facts right sir. Thanks
