Then, you must not be more than 25yrs with atleast 2yrs experience to getting a job. Issorite

It's easier said when you're not in the other side of the Niger... The complexity and problems breeding in Niger Delta can't be understood until you live there. As one who's from that region, I grew up in a small town called "Ologbo". Blessed with over 30 oil wells. Aside the constant government lies, this leaders comes to the community take these resources away, pollute the land and make it unsafe for farming, pollutes the water, makes it unliveable for fishes and thereby starving the inhabitants all in the name of oil spillages. You sitback in your region and speak with a wide mouth without understanding...

After my apprenticeship, I furthered my education, during my IT days, none of these oil companies granted me a space to even do my IT or SIWES. Why, I have nobody who knows someone up north or in the political realm. In your community, you see young northerns, guys from Lagos doing ITs and gainfully employed. Long story short, I never had the opportunity to do my IT in any of the rigs or wells. The only slot we got is to become a janitor or someone who will clear the pipelines route or dig gutters form laying the pipes. These are the kind of task the community youths are engaged in.

If this could be for an IT student, think about employment opportunities... To the best of my knowledge, we have Ologbo as one community driving Nigerian's economy, but, how many graduates are employed from that community? Hoe many skilled personnel have access to good employment there in these facilities? Yet, our counterparts in the north are everywhere in the military, leading various battalions, even those who can't construct a sentence or express themselves. PMB even before leaving secondary school already got admission into military school. How many of us down south had that kind of opportunities

Before you talk, think twice

I am Engr Goodluck Oghenemaro UDEH and this is my story

We actually have a lot to explain in terms of education in matters of marriage

Ordinarily, marriage involves two families coming together to becoming one. The only actors that should be involved in the processes is family, every other persons or thing is secondary

In Nigeria to be specific, we do more than two marriages

The day you pay your woman's dowry, that day, the journey of your marriage begins. You're entitled to everything and every part of your spouse, likewise your spouse, everything that concerns you

Marriage isn't founded on the bedrock of religion, it's founded on the bedrock of family

David endorsing the PDP candidate isn't surprising. He Davido is a card carrying member of the party and he's also a youth leader in party.

Vandalism of essential infrastructure, especially power systems and their accessories, can be significantly reduced with the use of advanced AI surveillance technologies.

The advent of AI has brought about innovative solutions like AI-powered spy cameras equipped with alarms that can detect threats from a distance, as well as AI devices that can deploy pepper spray and tear gas automatically in response to intrusions.

Theft is a global issue, but nations that prioritize robust security measures and advanced profiling deliver optimal safety to their citizens. When a government fails to ensure the security of lives and property, it deters investors from committing to the nation. Power system investments are substantial, and thus, guaranteeing security by the government is paramount; other security measures are merely supplementary.
Embracing technology is essential. We can use technological advancements for continuous and effective surveillance if we are genuinely committed to becoming a successful and secure nation.

I am Udeh Goodluck, and I believe that as a nation, we can leverage AI technology to enhance the security of our power system facilities, including generation, transmission, and distribution networks.

Instead make you learn respect from Itsekiri people, dey here dey claim right to insult elders. No be even kick you dey use wake elders for your house. Na cane. Mschewww.

I see how you dey treat elders... Treater! No wonder you dey praise people like BAT everyday, just because they're elders

I have worked closely with Itsekiri leaders in Warri Kingdom and I see their respect very well, atleast, Prince Johnson of Ologbo is an example. Dey deceive yourself!

Respect is not demanded... You earn respect. If you want respect, first respect yourself, then, give out respect!

kingthreat:
From your username, your nonsense post is not surprised. It is widely said that many of your people wake their elders up by kicking them. So ride on.

In this century where facts and evidence prevails, just a little google search or research you still thinks and talks like someone in the early 90s. It's a shame

We're so reduced now as a people such that when somebody say something, we first check where the person is from or his tribe instead of understanding his point of views regardless of his tribe or region. This is where it has led the nation

I thought you'll point out the nonsense thing I wrote. Besides, both players are from South South. So, what's your point exactly. Hypocrites everywhere

For the records, I am from the Isoko speaking tribe. Owhelogbo, Isoko North LGA of Delta State and I speak my mind with facts and sincerity. If you don't like it, then, deal with it!

kingthreat:
Osimhen was badly broought up.
First you insult Ikpeba, now you insult Finidi dey threaten am like say you be your mate?
These are legends that gave Nigeria the best football they ever played.
NFF should discipline him for ranting like this against a legend. Not like he was even terrific at the AFCON. Nonsense and ingredient.

So, both Ikpeba and Finidi that were properly brought up said good things about Oshimen ba? Talking nonsense!

Before you come for me with your ignorance. Ikpeba is my Uncle. I once lived with his elder brother, Ikpeba Snr. So, we're family and from same Owhelogbo, Isoko North of Delta State. Just for the records

In both scenarios, Oshimen was never at fault. Let's start calling a spade a spade and not s shovel. So, your team and tactics failed, suddenly, it becomes Oshimen's fault? Someone who wasn't even in camp with the presence of other players. Super Eagles uptill now still has the best squad in Africa, so, Finidi wasn't handed a weak team. Lookman alone singlehandedly gave his club the recent trophy. So, why singling Oshimen out for the failure of the team?

First, Oshimen is never from the south east, same as Finidi. They're both from South South. That being said, there's cost and effect. No place in the world where a responsible coach blame a player not in the squad for a match defeat, no place! You take responsibility for your failure. So, if the coach won those games, who will have said those statements?

Furthermore, both Finidi and Oshimen, who should be more matured, cultured and well behaved? When a father behaves like a child, he should be treated like one. This is how it should be. We're still suffering from irresponsible adults, parents and leaders today as a nation. Respect isn't demanded, you earn it!

VO9 in his word which he has on record, said "I begged the coach to be in camp with the boys even with my injury, for moral boost. But, the coach turned it down and said I should be with my family". So, why was he lying and placing blame on the young boy when you have enough strikers in the team? He even accused
the boy publicly and suddenly people wants him to keep quiet and pretend like nothing happened. Have you ever be blamed before? If VO9 didn't come out now, what do you think would have been the narrative? Did the coach who suppose to know better thought about his words on the young boy's career when he blamed him? Go see the boy's handle and see bashing from Nigerians who knows nothing about the matter before now. And someone wants him to come out calm without being disrespectful! Hypocrites everywhere!

In South South, we love respect and discipline. But, when you mess up, will tell it to you. We don't pamper the elder and dissed the child. If the elder did not display lies and disrespect, the child will not misbehave. Let's treated issues the way they are. The big question is, "why did the coach lie against VO9?, why the blame game and where's the place of taking responsibility for the poor performance of the boys?"

Was VO9 right with his outburst? The answer is "no!" Could he have handled it better, yes! Be he chooses to handle it the way he did due to the severity and anger the breeded out of the Coach lies and blame games. The coach is the one who lost my respect, not the one challenging the coach of his lies, pretense and manipulations.

Comparing VO9 with Finidi in terms of achievements is the height of cluelessness and disrespect to both players. VO9 is still very young. At his age he's already the CAF player of the year. See his rank in FIFA, which Nigerian player has ever attained that height in FIFA'S ranging? Please, let's be focused on the issue

Get the message and leave the messenger. To every action, there's equal and opposite reaction. This is a law!

You're paying a driver so poor in this tough economy, yet, you're at his mercies... That driver has nothing much to loose, you have everything to loose, so be careful make your driver no drive inside river or carry your kids to kidnappers

When I hear the economy is growing, I struggle to understand. How will the economy be growing and inflation is on the high side. Workers salaries are still the same in the midst of inflation

Please, I need an economist to explain this to me for better understanding...

Just last month, my tfare from Berger to Ikoyi, not even Lekki to and fro was over 75k. No feeding yet, rentage, family upkeep, etc

Sometimes, I just laugh when people talk.

As at 2014, if you earn 60k, you're doing well cos even 50kg rice was below 15k. So, your family can feed fine and also save for the future. Fast forward to this day, if you earn less than 250k, you're a pauper. The question is, how many Nigerian workers are being paid up to 250k monthly?

What labour is asking for isn't unrealistic. If in 2014, a litre of PMS was N89 and now, it's over N600, please do the percentage increase on that commodity alone, so, why should the earnings not be proportional. Go check out budget then and now, check the percentage increase in our National budget, but, when it comes to buying salaries, the workers are always told to sacrifice. As we speak, Nigeria is embarking on a road project of over N15tr

Good evening everyone on this thread.

As an Isoko tradition demands, how should naming ceremony be carried out?

I will love to know as only that of the Urhobos is available on the Internet

Thank you

Isoko Waddooh!

What is this for God's sake!
This is culture na... Culture is the way of a people. So, why suspect her culture just with this flimsy reason

I'm from Delta State, Isoko speaking tribe and the bride price in my family is twenty-five Naira Only (N25). It hasn't changed

This is where your education comes to play, do background check. Check for the family history, illness and things that matters. If her brother decides not to marry, that shouldn't even be your worries. Focus on your journey to family hood.

If you like her, then marry her, if not, let her go... No need to be with a lady you don't see a future with. By so doing, you're also delaying your time to settle down

In a world without you, my dear,
Life would be dull and gray,
Every moment would be a fear,
Without your love to chase away.

The sun would shine less bright,
The stars would lose their light,
The world would be a cold, dark place,
Without your warm embrace to grace.

The thought of living without you,
Is like a ship without a crew,
Adrift in a sea of uncertainty,
With no hope to guide me through.

The world may turn, the seasons change,
But without you, all would be strange,
No joy, no laughter, no love to claim,
Just an endless, empty game.

So let me hold on to your hand,
And cherish every moment we stand,
For in your love, I find my strength,
And with you, my heart finds its length.

Though far away,
In your thought i'm lost
See you soon my manager
Just can't wait to witness your smile and laughter

Regardless of where you were born, once you're below 30yrs of age before graduation, you have to serve your country via NYSC as a graduate

Note: 1. You might not necessarily need it if you're not planning to work here or have anything to do with politics
2. Only those who graduated over 30yrs are exempted via an NYSC exemption letter
3. Once you've represented Nigeria in any international event, World Cup, Olympic and others such as the uniform agencies, you don't need to serve anymore. You'll be exempted
4. If you finish before 30yrs and did not serve, sorry, there are some appointments, offers and jobs you can't get in Nigeria. This is while you see aged persons in their 40s, 50s even 60s in NYSC camp. Hope we still remember the drama of our former finance minister Kemi Adeosun.

Life is a process... Work on the process. You're doing well. Some of us started like this

I squatted with five other guys in a room after my NYSC. But, today, the story is different

Just trust and follow the process. Never leave God!

How about this: The results following the completion of thorough wall conduit and piping installation?

Note: A good piping installation should follow proper house-keeping and managing of materials such as avoidance of wall breakage for the client

List out the roads Jonathan started and completed in the south east

Must everything be regional? I'm from the Niger Delta region. Should I be accessing a president on only what he does in my region to know his performance alone, especially on roads only?

GreenCovering:
The Naira exchange rate also crashed by double going from about 125 to over 250 to a dollar even when we had more oil sales during his tenure. People tend to judge APC unfairly imho.

Please, remind us sir... From 250 to what again now? And when it was 250, what was the minimum wage compared to the dollar rate? Let me remind you, at 250 to a dollar, our minimum wage could buy over 100kg of rice.

Today, our minimum wage can barely buy 25kg of rice

Spot the difference in the analysis. Atleast, the stats are there

Paraman:
Jonathan that can't boast of constructing up to 100km of road in each of the 6 geopolitical region

Why not do your research before commenting... Must be engage in media buying or arrogance before you know some of his achievements?

Not your fault, Nigerians barely reads, they just talk. This is where we are now. I'm glad you're enjoying it. Atleast, these current politicians understands and knows how to manipulate the media

Less than a year of this administration, Nigerians are already regretting... Policies forth and back. Trial and errors everyday. Removing subsidy without a proper plan for arresting the adverse effects...

This one is here talking about 2027. Politicians never seems to amaze me, honestly. They really take Nigerians for granted and I don't blame them. I blame the masses who allowed these beasts with no human empathy to come with religion and tribal sentiments to reap us off

If anyone from the Niger-Delta comes across the thread, please remember that some of you voted for Peter Obi. Peter Obi has demonstrated he is against the progress of the Niger Delta communities. The bulk of the funds for running our economy comes from the Niger Delta. But he says a big project to criss-cross the Niger Delta is a misplaced priority.

Note that the US spent their way out of recession through the New Deal which focused on massive infrastructural development across board, including roads. There is no nation interested in progress that is currently not engaged in one form of infrastructural development or the other. But the one which is 60 years old overdue in Nigeria, Peter Obi is fighting it, simply because he lost election.

If he didn't build anything meaningful in Anambra, I think it is disingenuous to fight against something being built through the Niger Delta. Thanks to Tinubu's ingenuity, Lagos is undergoing massive infrastructural development and embarking on an audacious railway project which the likes of Rufai Oseni would condemn.

Peter Obi doesn't want the progress for the Niger Delta. He just wants to get the votes and use anti-developmental and archaic ideas to ruin this country completely.

Only vote for those who want progress to be in your land. With this tweet, Peter Obi has shown he is not interested in that.

As for the Landmark CEO who has been all over the place making noise, can he show us documents where the shorelines and beaches in his location were ceded to him? If he violated the right of way, it is evil for him to complain. The best thing to do was to meet and find ways to relocate his business or shift to an area where the coastal highway won't pass. When I travelled through Accra-Cape Coast highway, part of which was adjacent to the ocean, it was a beautiful sight with the blue waters! Guess what? Beaches still functioned!!

Just to add, a road network is also a delight for businesses. Food can easily be transported from rural areas to urban centers and those in rural communities would make good money.

But Peter Obi does not want this.

Please, state the difference between this particular road and the East-West road. In addition, what other benefits or importance aside the additional rail line is this road than the dilapidated East -West road?

PS: I am from Delta State

In 2021, I decided to stay on my on and try to face life and achieve growth as a man. The journey has been challenging, I won't lie but I have been able to learn valuable lessons.
I have been living in a face me I face you since may 2022. When I got there, it was a total different kind of lifestyle.

The landlady particularly called me on the second week I got to the compound. she said I looked gentle which is good but that shouldn't stop me from washing the bathroom and toilet when it's my turn.
I kept wondering what was the similarity between being gentle and washing the toilet?
Well I had no problem complying since it's a normal routine for all tenants.

I had to share bathroom and also toilet. And when it's time to cook, I did that in my room. Sometimes I felt shy and washed in my room then one lady in our house told me my room will be smelling if I keep washing there.
Sometimes they fight over the smallest issues that can be solved with just sorry.
I found it very strange.

To top the whole issue, our compound did not have its own water or well. We had to go to the next street.
Well I thought it wise to be buying things gradually. I bought bed, standing fan and curtains. You know the normal bachelor bachelor's setup.

Then this week, I was able to rent another house which was a room and palor...
Hahahaha I have been walking up and down the house since I moved in. From the kitchen to the palour and to the room then to the bathroom. Sometimes, I'll peep through the windows to look at people passing lol. Don't mind me, I just graduated from living in a house with a single widow to a house with more than 5 windows

I now have easy access to water and I have just been laughing unnecessarily to myself. Well I think it's part of living alone.
I'm going to get pots of flowers and put it infront of my house make we start from there.
Having a spacious apartment is also beautiful. Omo I feel really happy o

Congratulations brother

You will be needing some of my wallpapers to cap it

You can send me a DM for more wonderful designs

To every action, there's equal and opposite reaction. It starts from the campaign, down to the voting process. Now campaign is over, reality has settled down...

No propaganda can erase the truth that the APC government lacks organisation, foresight and preparedness

Nigerians should learn and learn harder. Suffering knows no tribe, region or religion

As a regular traveler of the East-West road handled by the Setraco contractors, I frown at this elephant project. That road connects all the South South states spanning through about 7 states to neighboring country, yet, the road isn't accessible. What's the difference between the East-West road and this Calabar-Lagos, except for the introduction of rail lines?

It's a break-up for me... This makes me want to agree to the saying, "weak me are now everywhere". You're dating a lady who's sending nude to another man. These nudes weren't sent days, weeks, or months before you met. They were sent within the period of your dating, omooohhhhhh!

This is actually relative. A friend from my alumni gave me the link to my first major employment by just recommendation. Just this month, I got an international certification through one of my class mates, my class governor precisely. Last year, we were three(3) class mates whose wedding fell same month, to my surprise, they gifted us some items...

You must not always comment, you can be an observer and also try to ensure things work the right way. Don't forget, when the purpose of a thing isn't known, abuse is inevitable.

Just last year, I was at the Validatory Ceremony in the Nigerian Navy Academy, Ojo. The senior perfect in 2003 was appointed to represent the alumni for that year, he spoke, "I have been an architect for over 15yrs with a firm, proudly a Ph.d holder in my field of endeavor, but, my breakthrough came in 2020 during the Covid 19 lockdown. One of our class mates from our Alumni reach out to me from US, gave me a project, I executed it, that was the beginning of my success in this profession. I am now the architect to his family and associates"

Stay through to your alumni, there's more than meets the eyes

Prioritizing Skill Development Over Financial Gain for New Graduates and Undergraduates

Transform your certification into meaningful experience. While earning certificates is valuable, practical experience, particularly in projects like MEP, is invaluable. The ideal approach is to fuse certification with hands-on experience. As you pursue additional certifications, prioritize gaining real-world skills.

To the recent graduates and undergraduates, prioritize learning over immediate financial gain. Engage in training programs and internships, even if they are unpaid. The knowledge and skills acquired during these opportunities will pay dividends in the future, far beyond monetary compensation.

For undergraduates, utilize your holiday breaks wisely by seeking out internships and volunteer positions in your field of study. Every experience adds to your professional repertoire. Remember, after graduation, it's not just about the certificates you possess; it's about the depth of your practical knowledge and skills.
