I think we should all be very prayerful, those who r christians on this thread please feel free to go to the mountain right now cos we all need it, and for the rest of us who dont hv mountains in sight feel free to pay ur dues before Gods alter, my prayer point everyday must be about this nysc batch a stream 2 PCM's, and because i know my God answers prayes we shall all testify, i assure you. @candice beautiful answer @lastborn i wrote down my choices in my post, what states did you choose?
And to add this evening a friend suggested me to learn hair dressing and i dont know if 1 month is too short to achieve that and its disappointing i have no skill. Im quite creative, i cook well but i think il use this one month to learn something with my hands. What do u guys think?

its so funny when I tink about it. I sold my TV, mattress, DVD, rug, curtains and everything that makes a house a house because I was sure of going to service next week. now I am left with the hard and bitter choice of living in an empty room like a prisoner in kuje prison all because the Nysc deployment operator was so itchy to send me a text rada than create d print CUL link on my dashboard.

Hernyolar:

MY ADVISE TO THE JUST PASSED OUT CORPERS

Five years ago while rounding up our national youth service, our LI used to tell us to prepare ahead, that a time is coming when ordinary N100 to shave will be so hard to produce, myself and most of my colleagues will look at him as if he doesn't know what he was saying, we thought he was cursing us and that statement was always furiously rejected. Until 5months after service, when the job I got after service refused to pay me for 4months, my beards got so bushy and the reality was downed on me. I can never forget the day I asked my brother to send me a recharge card, and I used it to pay for shaving my beards. The barber agreed to pay me N150 for a N200 mtn card, I shaved for N100 and he gave me N50. Funny? #Smiles.

Dear coppers, let me start by congratulating you on your successful completion of a national assignment. Nothing is more joyous than completing a tedious journey that looks unending from inception. It's worth celebrating and your hearts should be filled with gratitude, because not all that started the journey were able to complete it, you are here not because you are holier, but by the grace of God.. As you read now, just say "God, I sincerely thank you for your grace upon my life", Alhamdullilah.

As much as I congratulate you, I would like to prepare your mind for the challenges ahead. The overcoming of one challenge in life is the initiation of another one. Let me sincerely welcome you to the labour market, a market where it's not about "what" you know but "who" you know, a market where majority of the sellers(employees) sells their products(job offer) to the sons and daughters of people that matters, and not to the credible buyers.

This may look like parables but let me demystify it. It's easier for a camel to pass through the needle's eye than getting a dream job in Nigeria today. Many blame the government, system etc, but my candid advise is, don't join in the blame game. Face the reality of your life and take 100% responsibility for your financial destiny.

In most cases I pity the female job seekers, they face a lot of temptation and frustration in the process of job hunting. The truth is, no matter how difficult it is to get a job, some will still get it cheaply by favour, I pray you are one of them, but the fact is, not everyone will.

Below are my candid advise, so you don't end up with bushy beards like me or get frustrated to the point of engaging in the things that will bring you eternal regret.

1. Be ready to take full responsibility for your life, even though you have Uncles, Brothers etc who might have promised you jobs, never rely on them. Take your own actions, nothing is more disappointing than dependence on third party factor variable.

2. Design your life after service, with or without job, make it in a tabular form. Write everything you need to do everyday in search of your dream job, and write alternative source of income you could engage yourself pending the arrival of the uncertain job. No bicycle gains stability without moving, for you to enjoy life stability and fulfilment, you have to keep moving.

3. Improve your habit of self discipline to do what you've written out to do on a daily basis, give no room for excuses. Think outside your challenges.

4. Cut your expenses according to your budget, don't follow crowd in living a materialistic life that may be too expensive for you to maintain. Cut relationship that's not leading to marriage now, they are the liabilities that will slow down your wheels of activities/success.

5. Be prayerful, God can meet you at a point you least expected...

If anyone has advice for these friends, let's drop it for them.

Note that It's not about reading this advice, It's about using it. I guarantee you 100% success if you can follow it.

If you are interested in starting a business of yours, you can contact me for mentorship, I have little experience that may guide you.

All the best.

amerimex:
U tried, but I wasn't expeting U to add more to the problems. U shd have listed the problems and profer your own solutions. So people who are in those shoes won't feel condemned, also fm my experince al this are just your views an holds no stance in the nigeria of today, in a multinational company I workd, the QC manager of a detergent(chemical ) plant is a food science degree holder,
My solution, no matter your course u can always apply for management trainee, also seek experience first in any organization irrespective of the pay, with experience u cannow apply to well paying firms. Those with poor grade should go for post graduate n Msc to bbe more relevant. Thanks

I'm a bit confused about something. Camping always begins on a wednesday but stream2 is different cos may21 falls on a saturday so its a bit confusing coupled with all the rumours flying around

GROOOVE:
Am more worried abt the two sets of sms sent, I just hope they dont have an intention to send some of us to batch B....all in all sha I still smell something fishy. I hope am wrong tho

Skydweller:
Being in Stream 2 is a blessing. We will learn from those in Stream 1 about the new changes that the new NYSC DG will introduce into the NYSC system. Moreso, for those of us who have not travelled out of our place of birth, those in stream 1 will be able to put us through regarding transport fees, condition of the roads, and most importantly give us accurate direction to various nysc camps

Kbs468:
No none of the above I believe because awhile ago, a friend of mine that has been trying to access his CUL since yesterday without success including from myself oo and till this afternoon actually got it done by me at exactly around some minutes past 3:00

After the report of 'PARAMETER NOT VALID' report throughout and according to him, they even went to d Cafe that another female friend of ours in GC printed hers without success still.

Only for NEPA to restore light and Bam! One more trial by me got d job done.

So that is how the trend will continue till Wednesday oo for those who sees 'PARAMETER NOT VALID' report

Whereas, 'NO DETAILS FOUND' means automatic STREAM II

You may need to get the trackpad replaced. In the meantime, you can use a mouse.

Next time, when something like that happens and the laptop is powered on, immediately power it off, disconnect the charger and remove the battery.

If the laptop is not powered on, do not be tempted to immediately turn on the laptop to verify that it's working.

Just disconnect everything immediately and place the laptop upside down so as to prevent the liquid from getting further into the circuitry. Get a clean piece of cloth and clean the spilled liquid.

Leave the laptop to dry for as long as possible before trying to test it (maybe a day or two).

Then, you may want to take it apart and do some more cleaning.

It is a long story but I will stick to the short of it.
BDC's really started under Babangida. They are given licenses when they meet CBN's steep criteria (some huge amount of deposit), to buy Forex officially and sell at the black (what we call parallel market).

Right now, they are making a killing but truth be told, the real BDC licensees are far and few in between. Most of the 'mallams' you see on the streets are like 7 or 8 down in the chain of sellers from the BDC. So it is not easy to become a licensed BDC operator and make all this gain for yourself.

The whole system is riddled with corruption- allegations of CBN top people being the brains behind licensed BDCs abound. This part of the reason why we have to end the dichotomy of official and black market at some point .
