Wrong they do . Loads of them.

ok...the one i use is not removable batteries,

Eddodoh:
A week ago, I met this lady and I expressed my love to her. Last Friday evening we talked on the phone and agreed that I would visit her on Saturday as she was going to be free from work.

On Saturday morning, I saw two missed calls from a strange number and I decided to call back, I learnt she's the one and I told her that I would be visiting as earlier scheduled. I visited but while chatting she told me that her phone fell down after we finished talking the day before and the screen got affected and no longer show callers identity. I advised her to take it for check up and probably repair.

The previous day being Sunday, we were together and somehow she brought the issue of the phone. I still maintained that she take it for repair and she said that she prefer HTC phones.
I looked and I asked her what she meant. She said that she has a HTC phone that has being with a phone engineer.

I asked for how long and she said that it's being there for almost 3months, she went further to inform me that the Engineer requested for 5k to fix something on the phone that she called Porsche, she also said that the battery got affected too. I asked her if the 5k includes battery replacement and workmanship, she said, no. I kept quiet but deep inside me, I wonder why her phone fell down recently instead of trying to fix it, she now want me to pay for another phone she claimed has being on repair for 3months.

Before I knew it she concluded that we can visit the Engineer today, Monday to know the progress and how to get the phone fix. She has being calling though I have told her that I am still in the office.

To me, I feel that she is up to something, this is someone I just hook up with and even though I have the money, I think that's not the best thing to do.


Your comment, opinion and suggestion is appreciated.

HTC phones dont have removable batteries....it is usually attached or in-built so that if there is a fault with battery, you just have to buy a new one....you ve been scammed!

Mighty but SMALL...

Nice one Mikel for sharing Economy seat with the rest of the guys.

well, that's actually a business class seat on a small craft....

The Rivers State Government repeatedly claim not to owe any of its employee salaries, but members of the Rivers State Sustainable Development Agency (RSSDA) claims to have not received their salaries since July, 2015; making it One-year of owed salaries. Who is lying....? Can we demand RSSDA's Executive Director/CEO, Mr Larry Pepple to speak-up as well as other well-meaning Nigerians to plead with Gov. Wike to pay RSSDA staff salaries owed since last July!

Seun, lalasticala, Ishilove: please help RSSDA staff make this news viral to drum up support: SERAP had already sued the Governor amongst the 11 governor on this!

This is normal especially with the current financial situation in the Country. I have progressed in job interviews and have been invited to the last stage interviews with Shell and GE, only to be written that the recruitment has been placed on hold. Obviously, this is due to re-alignment of recruitment needs and financial implication for hiring a new hire, when they can internal resource for that position.

Where I work currently, a colleague resigned in their role, and the role was merged with another one and the person's job enlarged. What the organisation did was increased the chap's salary abit, this means the organisation will not incur cost of hire a new person which would include buying and maintaining a car, phone lines, internet, office space, healthcare, bonuses etc. Thats how it works.

Dont feel bad, please continue in your job hunt, or better still try out your hands as an entrepreneur.

ok....we can talk some more...but i have done Shell for 3yrs and moved on. If i know the kind of contract you have, i can advise better, but Shell is a good brand as well as experience-builder especially if you are oil&gas career minded, although oil demand is declining, but gas is the future!
rgds,

chaberry:
that's not fair, if what you type is true

thanks...the pictures told the story, take a look again, you will the peace airways head rest cloth for the nigerian players as well as the rowdiness in the plane while the ifeanyi ubah and the brazilians flew is quite different.

chaberry:

Cos i can't imagine flying in a private jet on an empty stomach to watch my fellow professionals


Good gesture by the way by Mr Uba

The brazilians flew private jet with him, while the nigerians were on peace airways.....

RICHIEBOI1:
How can it be a setup when both her step-mom and Brother are all declared wanted including her by EFCC? get your facts right before coming here to spew rubbish. Smh

the people declared wanted with her, are her mum and brother.....

Kletch:
Pls if you dont know her, keep quiet. Not every story is true. This is a set up by her step mum and step brother over her fathers wealth. Late sekibo. Inc president. She is innocent and its a family matter. Saw this in LIB

true, i know the story....her step mum and supposed brother who was not fathered by her late father.....

Change, as promised......live with it!

i know her, we went to Language school on the Island, some 16 years ago......she was a runs-girl then, i guess she still is. Wasted life!

BeClever:
Present u said? You posted this, but unfortunately you did not even look at it, cos if had you would have observed the date on the image.

well, i share your sentiments.....I only asked a question. The truth is that the ranking is for 2015 and the present administration was in charge for most of 2015.

According to Global Development Network (GDN) and Transparency International-World's Corruption Nations ranking Experts, the World's Eleven (11) Most Corrupt Nations Index did not contain our dear Country Nigeria.
Transparency International’s corruption perceptions index 2015 – which ranked 168 countries on a scale of 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean) – is once again topped by Denmark, which scored 91. Close behind are Finland (90), Sweden (89), New Zealand (88) and the Netherlands (87). Nigeria is ranked 32; could this be a dividend from the present administration...?

This is the mail thread from the guys (Global Career Company- based in London) who head-hunted me for the WB roles. I heard the interviews are in batches though, so if you havent heard from them, you might be contacted in the second batch of interviews

GlorifiedTunde:
Seriously? How did you get the info bro?

Did people go all the way from Nigeria for that? Abi na Nigerians in diaspora dem choose?

Sure, invited peeps will travel to the nearest location which is usually where they have the largest pool of candidates. My source is very...very .....reliable!

blueheffner:
is this salary also applicable to GAP that requires professional accounting certification like ACA or ACCA and how long ago did you attend their mgt trainee course . Make I know if I go siddon jeje where I dey o. Cos that salary is a farcry from my current earnings. So much for oil company

I wasnt in the mgt trainee programme, I was a senior-management staff (in-charge of a function) and i have moved on. the salary you get after the programme is usually based on your power of negotiation which comes from your quality of education (overseas or local), previous experience and your finesse. Moreso, no two persons earn the same, people in my grade were earning six digits but in different magnitudes! With your experience and quality of education as well as effizzy, you can get far more than what your colleagues will earn after the programme. Goodluck....no harm in trying,

mediciMAGNIFICO:
Pls what is the range of the amount they pay? Got their invite but I am currently working. I dont wana take leave from work unnecesary.

As a MGT Trainee, you will probably be paid N150K or so.....the chances of you getting a permanent job thereafter is 50:50 becos its a mgt training programme and you could be booted out at the end or before the end of the programme. The programme, while i was there, was a six months programme, maybe their might have changed the tenure....you have several assignments which involves loads of travelling, training and making presentations just like the the Apprentice.
You can make some small 'change' from the travels vis allowances, but the salary is based on how much you can negotiate. I wont advice you leave what you are doing except its a one-man show!

interview is ongoing at the moment in Paris, London and Dakar and will be concluded in the next few days.....

MacMaster01:
Sahara pays well guys, make sure u kill dragnet

not sure about that......it just has effizzy. once worked there, salary is not that ''pays well' and their staff turn-over is quite high, if you see what i mean!
