Stop complaining, you should have paid the 15k. Even ACCA the world's largest Accounting body will charge you 25k for your script to be remarked. It is not even like they will remark it, they will just do a recount.
Stop doing strong head for everything, this is Nigeria. I will go out on a limb to tell you that you should have paid the initial 7k. Yes I said it. If you cannot cope, get out of Nigeria. The deficiency is endemic, only you cannot beat it.

wow

what an advice

SLAP44:
Did you vote buharri in the last election?

this has nothing to do with the topic

macaranta:
I perfectly understand your view, however in areas of conflict, my submission is not applicable. Are there full blown wars in the south American countries?

the cartels have taken over

Violence is rife

That i can say for especially Honduras and El Salvador

a region where 40% of the boys dont live to 22 years is a region at war with itself

so I don't blame any who wants to run away

ornicus:
Bastard.

This is how they did the same thing outside my close last week. Now we have had no light for a week

You must be someone who have lived in Festac town

it's festac I know of that uses "close" instead of street

softwerk:


This boy is too small for his chosen career!

No doubt the influence from one small babe requesting him to prove his love

lmao

jodeci:
You have said it all,the APC zombies gave us the template and we will continue to abuse the cattle-life president.

insulting the president gives me nothin

I'm just saying that no one should cry when Buhari is being riled on social media

The APC rats started it...

even an old fool called someone shepopotamous....

When an old man lacks sense, he begin to talk rubbish

35824L:
PMB is not looking for your respect. He is a two-term president, the sitting president of the most populous black nation on earth, and a retired military general who successfully prosecuted a civil war.

What is this one saying?

Yyeske:
That person you quoted doesn't even understand what he's writing, the cedis tumbled from 0.9 to about 6 cedis to a dollar, the naira from 117 to 360 to a dollar and he's still bragging with his worthless cedis. I guess Ghanaians are richer than the South Koreans and Japanese.

Ghanaians like to delude themselves

That narrative of Nigeria Naira real value is 400 + is what their media tell them
Especially that useless GTv

evry 5 mins, Nigeria this Nigeria that

always wanting to show they are better than us, which in reality they are not

tell him to name 5 solid indigenous Ghanaian brands, he will be scratching his head

Tell him to list 5 Ghana originated solidly capitalised banks, he will scratch his head.

Tell him to list 5 known Ghana entertainment personality out there in the world, he will scratch his head


We know where we fvck up
And we know our strength

but Ghana people can deceive themselves well well

he is talking of growth and PPP

things is Ghana are much more expensive than they are in Nigeria

expatriates have put their economy in their own pocket while the locals collect crumbs ( im one of them.so i know lol )

what they try to boast about is that "at least we can attract investment"
Why can't the Ghanaians build brands and businesses the way we Nigerians do?

Even Ivory coast that is even more business friendly than Ghana do not boast like this

Just forget that onye asai.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
How you guys disrespect the office of the presidency baffles me. He's our president, please show respect even if you disagree about his leadership style.

That same respect should have been accorded to former presidents

APC rats started this culture of insulting and disrespecting the president

now they have achieved their aims

Yet the culture has not stopped

Maybe when this idiot in chief is out, then we can start in a clean slate and respect the office

Sultty:
yes he is one of the reasons. If u know how influential my family is but non of them gives a f**k because they tell me clearly they can't work in d same firm as me

nobody owes you anything bro

the day you know that, the better for you

I was in the same shoes years ago.

but then

I had to chart my own course

and today it's all past tense

it is the conditioning that "my family should help me" that is making many young men out there frustrated and agtrt because the help did not come
Your destiny is in your own hands
When you are now a success, you can then keep those unscrupulous uncles at bay

Sultty:
op thunder will fire u. I can only make u feel worse, it's because of people like u that numerous family members at the place of influence keep throwing my cv in d thrash can. Because once help comes u are always there to put them in disrepute

Why are you so bitter?

He is not the reason you are unemployed

ugsams:
With time all these phase will pass... Just maintain your lane and sanity. Do your work with your best. Gain all the necessary experience and start looking for job while you're on this one. If you get a better offer move. Even your overall oga na human being like you and should be easily accessible to everyone. Na our Naija mentality they cause all these over importance. When I joined my company, my CEO was on holiday, once he came back, he came to look for me and other new employees that joined when he was away and personally give us his business cards. Every now and then, we do go for drinking and if he fails to show up he apologizes in the next general meeting. Even the founder comes in once in a while. I'm talking of billions of dollar worth company with over 60 years presence.

You have said it all

chrisagyei:
Listen carefully.The cedis was 1 cedi to a dollar ten years ago.About rate of inflation the fact of the matter of the naira deprecated from 1 naira to a dollar between 1985 - 1990s and now on life support by your government injection of over 40 billion dollars to stabilize your dead currency amidst your extraordinary level of poverty,corruption,lowest infrastructure,extreme unemployment,etc etc speaks volume of more depreciation to 1,000 naira to a dollar in the next five years.When oil prices soured in 2014-2015,the 1 dollar was equal to 540 naira and even with your current 360 figure,it's still not the one used out there on the black market,1 dollar is over 400 naira.Your currency is very useless.Our government don't inject a cent into our currency buh it's left to float according to demand and supply.You speak of quantitative easing and developed nations controlling the depreciation of their currencies which makes your point very useless.Your economy produces nothing and depends solely on oil prices.About redomination of our currency,I don't know why some Nigerians try to always tag a simple currency redomination when their own government has plans on redominating their currencies.Argentina,Turkey,South Korea,Germany and other nations redominated their currencies and all experts and most Nigerians keep doing business in Ghana due to our valuable currency so you are simply being naive on how our currency is performing better including our economy which is projected to be the fastest growing in Africa in 2019 with over 8% growth.Our GDP per capita is over 2,000 dollars norminal. GDP is projected to be over 60 billion dollars for a country of 29 million people.Yes,our country is doing far better than yours and our current president is far better than any president Nigeria ever had.The fact that Nigeria voted for a lifeless president who hardly completed high School tells more about your country.Read what your former Central Bank Governor said about Ghana and Nigeria just last week Friday.I state facts instead if gibberish like you do.The whole world knows that Ghana is doing far better than Nigeria in terms of everything from Health to education to Energy to agriculture to human Development index to peace and security to currency management,to even sports.The facts don't lie and millions of Nigerians running to Ghana can testify.It's scary seeing Nigerians everywhere in Ghana

You are still beating about the Bush and talking rubbish

all you said does not change the fact that the cedi is one of the worst performing currencies in Africa over the last ten years
You are bringing history and trying to shy away from it.

This portfolio game is one of the things I do for a living, the cedi is so damaged that Ghana is seriously dollarised.

everyone is pricing things in dollars
even some of my partners

Ghanaians like to delude themselves that is the problem with you guys
We as Nigerians don't

we know our strength and we uni out failimgs and we talk openly about it
Ghana people own is to be lying in public (like that your liar countryman that says that coke is not sold 3.5 cedi anywhere or that .Dumsor does not happen anywhere in Ghana)

Ghana produces nothing and is a basket case, so I wonder where this empty boasting is coming from


Ghana and Nigeria can never be mates economics wise

Yes, we have challenges today, but still, Ghana ain't shit

it's just as threadbare as every other African country

I watch your tv when I'm in town and I hear what your press say ago Nigeria all the time.....


so I am nit surprised many nigger Ghanaians think like you.

shevchenko:
The way he was maltreated means he has no job sense .
He would have not reported to anyone whether his uncle or superior .He is not just job ready at all
No wonder his mum said he should not come home if he quits

Lots of people are looking for an opportunity or an uncle like his ,he is here destroying all the legacy his uncle has built to the right extent of even blaming his uncle for his situation .

The guy is immature and irresponsible

what you wrote made zero sense

just say you are jealous of him and wished you were in his shoes

shevchenko:
How old are you You act too immature You have no job sense

this is uncalled for

AntiBrutus:
If the boss was a woman, I am sure the comments would have tilted to how female bosses are wicked and women abuse power.
Now everyone (males to be specific) are commenting objectively.

My former boss, a woman- I miss her everyday. My current boss, a man- I wouldn't wish him on my worst enemy.

I am the next in line to him, majority of my surbodinates would rather call/approach me than him, even when they have questions over the weekend. He is exactly like OP's boss. Kept threatening me with query. One day I looked him in the eye and told him to go ahead with the query. In fact, he should copy everybody...MD, ED...everybody. I will reply.

I asked him, "do you want me to resign? Will my salary be added to yours? Everyday you keep stating what you want and what you don't want. Chill and ask what others want. You are not the only one in this unit. You come into the office and everyone goes dumb. You think it is normal?"

He was shocked!

the last time I checked, most of the people who complain of female bosses are women themselves

let's not derail this topic with this,
the OP needs serious advice

AntiBrutus:
Male boss right?
Opinions will be objective.

what does the gender of the boss have to do with anything?

macaranta:
If you allow people to freely move into any country of their choice illegally, you will not only risk overwhelming your facilities and infrastructures, there's also a whole lot of other downsides like crime, disease outbreak, etc to it. If you must migrate, go through the proper process and preserve your dignity as a human being

when you are hungry

you have no decency as a human
you do whatever

Many Nigerians who are probably living patched up lives in say Lagos or Abuja are here running their mouth and criticizing the man because they think they are enjoying life

Nigeria today under Buhari is at high risk of being engulfed in civil war because the fool has been reckless all through his reign

Assuming a civil war then engullfs NiggerArea, let's see if you will still be chatting from your generator powered dingy house in Lagos or Abuja or whatever,
whether you guys will not have to flee your country as well.
and become refugees elsewhere

then others will now make the same comment that you are making now (btw I'm not making specific reference to you, I'm just saying in general)

Syria once had a vibrant middle class
today million of Syrians are refugees

deltateam:
.

I thought as much but people who have enough food in their stomach would rather argue for argument sake.

No man would intentionally get drown in a river along with his new daughter except it was in a dire situation.

don't mind them

ttmacoy:
It's interesting that everyone is angry at Trump for not letting them into the US illegally, but not angry at the leaders of the countries they come from. Can any of you name the Presidents of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras without googling their names? Why do they get a pass yet everyone blames Trump? You also know what Obama also blocked them coming in, I can find you videos of him saying DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS TO THE BORDER, IT IS DANGEROUS AND THEY WILL BE SENT BACK.

While I sympathize, the fact is they were migrating to the US for economic reasons and the US asylum laws are not for economic reasons therefore they do not qualify. Everyone moving to the US is not the solution to the problems these countries face and the crisis at the Southern border is now so bad even people from Africa etc are now trying to use it to get in. This is similar to the way people were dying trying to cross the desert and sea to get to Europe.

Love Trump or hate him, it is not sustainable for that number of people to come through the borders, it is just not possible and you have Democrats using the situation to score political points and win votes. The same Democrats that claimed a few months ago that there was no crisis, suddenly there is a crisis but it Trump's fault, guess what even the President of El Salvador has admitted the fault is at home and they need to resolve this at home not push it to the US.

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/01/world/americas/nayib-bukele-migrant-deaths.html

To me the solution to this lies with working with the government of these countries so people are not so desperate to flee but I am wary if this will work due to the corruption in these countries. The US already gives hundreds of millions n aid yet more and more people are fleeing.

some of those presidents are puppets installed by foreign corporate interests

it's very hard for an already beleaguered people to dislodge such leaders

not to talk of the coups that America has covertly supported over the decades that brought many of these wicked leaders to power e.g. Pinochet and others....

The U.S. govt is not being sincere

but then, the world is not fair

dominique:
That's exactly what his family told interviewers, he actually sold his motorcycle and borrowed extra money for this trip. His wife was also in the river and watched as her husband and daughter got swept away by the currents. She's recuperating in a Texas hospital now, most likely going to be granted asylum. I wonder how she'll be feeling living the American dream her young family died for.

it's a sad story

Kinikini:
The West should stop the imperialist policies undermining the development of other countries. They should also aid the rectification of the selfish political boundaries imposed for political and economic benefits which are holding down those countries. The West will continue to receive unwanted migrants so long the economic gap between the rich West and other regions is not reduced.
quote author=dominique post=79846804]Very insensitive of the cartoonist but people need to stop desperately trying to migrate illegally into other countries through dangerous means. This man not only wasted his life, he wasted that of his daughter's.

Photo of the deceased man and cute daughter, the wife must be crushed right now

that's true

Imperialism is one factor to blame for this

gypsey:
Absolutely!



It is not as if their lives were in danger, they were fine were they were, but decided to risk their lives trying to cross the border illegaly.


I have no sympathy for him.

How are you sure they were fine where they were....

Don't be too sure about that tho

ILoveLight:
There is a terrible traffic on Lekki-Epe axis. People who left Lekki since past 4:pm yet to get to Abraham Adesanya. Cos of the traffic is flooding at Abraham adesanya.
I think its time we citizens do something about this road. We can't continue to suffer like this.
For some time now we've been experiencing terrible traffic from Abraham Adesanya to Golden park estate. A journey of 10 minutes taking more one to two hours.

Nigerians are not tired of suffering

una go suffer well well

and suffer more

when you guys are tired of suffering
you know what to do

That said
I'm sorry for your predicaments

Benekruku:
Sigh...

With all that you listed as being a better priority, which can be executed to work functionally without guaranteed security?

When you see great nations throw in massive budgets in security, they not fools.

the security agencies should first ensure that illegal immigrant herdsmen do not cross our borders

Second
all these herdsmen causing havoc should be caught and dealt with as a deterrent to others


That is how it's done in "civilised countries"

not rewarding these criminals for bad behaviours

AnanseK:
It doesn’t matter if some states refuse the Ruga ( ranch) project . You just increase the number and sizes of the ranches in the consenting states. The non- consenting state can always go and buy meat and dairy products from the ruga states. It is a project with huge potentials for development and export, let them reject it for sentimental tribalistic reasons , no problem.

so Nigeria should spend a whole lot of money to create settlements for foreigners who are by the way causing mayhem wherever they go?

Shebi the same idiot president said that the herdsmen are from Libya
why are we building settlements for " Libyans"


And to make matters worse, numbskulls like you will support every foolish act taken by this satanic govt

VirusOO7:
I'm a Nigerian, and you speak the truth. It is sad that my country men will leave the country, only to continue in the act of depreciation and colossal doltishness

yh

there is NO STATE in the north of anywhere in NIgeria that is even up to 40% fulani

why is this governor lying?

Caleycash:
because poor people have a warped way of reasoning. also they are very ungrateful and religious!!!

you have a point

but when the poor ones become rich

their mentality does not change

so its not really abt the money

ChiefkeefGB4:
Are they not ashamed when they see what visionary leaders turned turned what once a desert to a prime tourist destination. Why can't foreign countries ban Nigerian leaders from visiting their countries. This is the only way they will be forced to develop the country

ban wetin ?

they will rather not

chrisagyei:
you are still sounding dumb.There's nothing like knocking off zeros cos if it's that easy,everyone would do same including your diarrhoea running useless currency.Do you know at some point in 2009-2010 your president together with central bank planned on redominating that naira of yours.And now they have pumped over 40 billion dollars to stabilize it in the last four years buh it keeps running whilst the cedis was left to float freely by the sole powers of demand and supply buh depreciated from 4.1 to 5.2 currently.The year under review among the two currencies is 2008 which was 10 years ago and naira to 1 dollar was 117.The cedis to the dollars was 1 to 1.Fast forward to 2019.Naira to dollars has worsened to 400 naira to 1 dollar(forget the 360 fake cap,it's never used out there) whilst the cedis to dollar is now 1 dollar to 5.2 cedis.Now tell me which is useless.Or you think the cedis can't deprecate to 200 cedis to a dollar overnight like how your useless naira did.The cedis is stable and deprecates lightly in 0.5s against the naira which deprecates in 50s because it is well managed under a very efficient government and less corrupt leadership.Why do you think we all chalking all this success even when a little country like Sierra Leone with numerous resources us and the rest of Africa is seriously struggling with growth rate of less than 5% whilst ours is projected to grow at 8% and termed world's fastest by both the IMF and world Bank and GDP per capita of less than 800 dollars for their less than 8 million population whilst we go around over 2,000 GDP per capita nominal and 5,000 GDP per capital PPP.

people like you are making me believe that a typical Ghanaian lacks cognitive sense, and analyse like kids, always looking for a reason to go one up against Nigeria

I have seen your type again and again and again.


Okay let me break it down for you, if you still have small sense to understand


in 2008
Let me use your rates

$1 to 117 naira (which it was not, we are talking more of 150, but for analysis sake let us use 117)

and "$1 to 0.9 CFA


I invest 1 million dollars as a foreign investor into say 10% 10 year bond of both countries


that means I the face value of the bond is 117 million naira for Nigeria and 900,000 cedis for Ghana

ten years after you wish to redeem the face value

both currency have depreciated

N360 for naira

5.5 for cedi


so you divide your 117,000,000 by 360 to get your face value in dollar which is $325,000


and you divide your 900,000 cedi by 5.5 to get $163,636 face value


which currency performed worse over the last 10 years

I am a portfolio investor, and I will tell you to your face that the cedi is one of the worst performing currencies in Africa over the last 10 years

I will not touch any Ghanaian security with a long pole


the problem with you Ghanaians is that you guys think you are better than Nigerians which you are not

your country us just as scattered as every other country in the sub region

We as Nigerians don't deceive ourselves
we know the truth and we say it that all is not well


but Ghanaian people will continue to deceive themselves

a currency that slid so sharp like that after redomination is useless


As for you accusing Nigeria of defending the naira


America practiced qualitative easing for 10 years plus to the tune of $80b per month year in year out

The U.K. and Japan does same

the govt will not tell you the truth

Ghana is BROKE with a very high debt to GDP ratio
they cannot afford to take monetary actions to defend the cedi





elections are next year
you guys should vote in this talkative again lmao


onye asai di ka gi

shogsman:
If you're a Nigerian and the selection process surprises you it means you're stupid or an hypocrite.

exactly

we know the rules of the game in Nigeria

why then are we surprised?
