Your Instagram account will be hacked and stolen by a cyber criminal and cultist that works for HOTR.
I'm a Man of GOD, and if you ask me to lay a curse on you here right now, i will...

Oga sharrap your dirty stinking mouth and go and hide your face in shame. it's the likes of you that have constantly mutilated and bastardized the character of God, making people see God as a bitter God, who curses people at every given opportunity. How dare you even say you are a man of God. I followed all your replies to the @ladylite and honestly, your words stink and are in glare and striking contrast to the words of a man of God.

Where is the love and patience of the spirit, that should be seen in you if really you are a man of God? And what did she even say to warrant such threats of curses and derogatory words from a so-called man of God? You even went ahead to tell her she's cursed? Mr. Man. You are just a bitter soul and very far from the truth seeing you don't even know the nature of the God you claim to serve. If you like rain curses from now till tomorrow, it ain't going to work. you will end up even more bitter and pitiable.

And like she called you a hypocrite, I quite agree with her. Go and get yourself really examined...

Now I'm vindicated. They never wanted to share passengers with any alternatives on their new buses so they could make profit. That's the main reason tricycles and bikes were banned. This government isn't not for the masses but for themselves

Copied.....

Because of space constraints, I’ll address this issue in two folds. The ban of Okada recently announced by Lagos State Government is not new. The Policy has been in place since 2012. The Sanwo olu Govenment has just effected it, where no one dared.

On Thursday March 2012 about eight( years ago Governor Fashola announced a total ban of Okada from all major bridges and the whole of Ikeja. This ban was instigated by the Nigeria Police who had been hapless from the incessant rise in crime. 3 months later it was extended to parts of Surulere and the Island. Specifically the Business district, parts of Victoria Island and Falomo, Ikoyi.

For the other areas government decided to regulate Okada riders and came about, a licensing scheme which stipulated that Okada riders need to learn how to ride bikes and must obtain a riders licence (As is applicable in most countries). This they did in partnership with the FRSC. This scheme was ignored totally. As a matter of fact the two main Okada unions took the government to court.

The FRSC ended confiscating over 15,000 bikes for non-compliance. Still, riders were going about undocumented. At that time there were just about 50,000 Okada’s in Lagos. The government also introduced the use of crash helmets due to incessant casualties from accidents. This too was largely ignored.

Today, there are over 250,000 Okada’s with 78% being indigenes of Chad, Niger and Mali. The significant rise was within the last 18 months. The most significant that jolted the Lagos State Government was the recent influx of over 40,000 Nigeriens and Malians under the guise of looking for a means of sustenance as Okada riders.

They were all undocumented, with no form of identification whatsoever. The Lagos State Government quickly set up a committee to look into this. Early January, In trying to enforce registration in Apapa, Iganmu Orile, where you have the largest concentration of Okada riders from Niger and Mali, government ended up seizing about 150 Okadas, whose owners did not have a riders permit.

Within a few hours Irate Hausa/Fulani Youths invaded Apapa- Iganmu LCDA headquarters at Marine Beach, chased all the workers away and set the office complex ablaze and also vandalised vehicles within the vicinity causing millions of Naira in damage. No serious government would watch and not take action, most especially with the insurgency in the North East.

What I also want you to note here is that, there is a total ban on Okada in Kano, Katsina, Zamfara, Sokoto, Kaduna, Kebbi and Niger State for security reasons.
I could write a whole epistle on the security threats of Okada. Sanwo-olu’s government didn’t just wake up and effect the ban! It was as a result of a report presented by the Lagos State Security Council and they sought advise from the OPS as well.

The Corporate Okada companies were given ample time to implement government policy on the management of their riders but they simply just took government for granted. Thinking government would not be that audacious with an outright ban. With the millions of dollars raised at start-up, all the corporate Okada companies were interested in, was the revenue. The 3k daily they were charging riders.

The companies became reckless after Lagos State introduced N25M as annual licensing fees for 1000 riders and then N30,000 per bike thereafter. Which means the companies would paying N295M if they had 10,000 Okada riders including tax and vat on revenue generated. Meanwhile the companies were earning over N1m per rider annually. They became very greedy and complacent and ceased to keep any verifiable database of the their riders with the required background checks. (This was largely done, to avoid charges). Gokada’s Bangladeshi owner’s main concern was how to roll out gokada in the thousands rather than making sure there was value added and compliance. So most of this companies have themselves to blame. The Corporate Okadas market share in Lagos is less than 5%. TBC.

$1000 for Trial package. For Rofx. If you are satisfied with their performance, you can up your balance if you want.

This was from yesterday trade report. 0.47% profit (today’s report comes later in the evening) The percentage was low yesterday. Mind you. I have more than $10,000 for the trade. Also there are customers with over $100,000.

Rofx is not a get rich quick scheme. They prefer making consistent little profits everyday without loosing your money than aiming at big profits thereby exposing your money to unnecessary risk.

The beauty of it all is that, they make profits everyday and no profits are reported like once in two weeks and your capital is secure.

Please, sir, are you on Whatsapp? kindly drop your WhatsApp contact. I'd like to know more about Rofx

So because Mbaka prophecies come to pass, the Archbishop wants to ban him from preaching? Did Mbaka make it so? No. He only saw it coming and made public what he saw, how is that his fault?

The Archbishop is simply a politician whose interest got rubbished, it wasn't done by Mbaka, so he can go chop shiit.

Gullible Nigerians like you have been deceived and deluded.

Hi wealthyhenry

youre going for a career change.

its noble of you.

your first degree Engineering gives you a big advantage.

Many engineering students who change to Accounting/Finance clears their ICAN papers in record time even before some from that background. this is due to their maths background.

the difficult part of finance is more of maths and inference. The NPVs, Costing, Amortization, which if you have gone through integral calculus, with all those Lagrange formulas and all those big electrical dynamos equations and weird formulas...

definitely, it will still be challenging, but will be a piece of cake if you are an average engineering student.

trust me, I have experienced in both worlds, the difference is miles apart.

Thanks for your reply. that was morale-boosting.

Please, what is the likelihood that I won't find myself wanting in this field given the short timing as compared to 4years of undergraduate studies? is it even obtainable in the labor market? can I get a job as a financial officer with PGD and masters in finance but with Engineering degree cert? these and many more are my questions.

And I'm going for Finance without the Accounting part.

Thank you

A common mistake I see around.

Most graduates seek Postgraduate degree based on their First degree Background alone.

Its an error.


Its not compulsory that you must read in masters level what you read in undergrad level.

The world is evolving.

careers are shifting.

look at your interests and your career, then

find a microscopic aspect you can dominate or become a big player very well.

Less is more these days.

Gone are the days of the big 4 courses.

These days, its the little foxes that controls the game.


Four things you should think about as you chose your Pg courses are:

a. Think Application

b. Think Independence

c. Think Diversification

d. Think Monetization


Careers of yesterday are giving way to more applicable-solution oriented careers in the current Eco-space.

My simple advise - Dont read anything you cannot apply.


Employers are getting smart and strict - demands are higher

The job market demand more... than paper qualification.


Application is the new king.


What you should do?


Research how your Bsc course can be applied in any organization to create growth and change and see if you can further in that line.

Find the angle in your industry, that your Bsc degree can explore and make the four criteria above happen.

dont read a course just because you want to have a master degree, that is a shallow reason.

Purpose is the mother of exploits.

that is the real deal going forward in 2020.


Peace.

This is beautiful and serves as a morale boost for me. I for one had a BEng Electrical and Electronics Engineering and a first-class too but looking forward I realized I want to pursue a career in finance rather than engineering, cos of my newly found desire to open a financial institution in the long run, hence my desire to do PGD in finance and move on to masters in finance and MBA in finance

Please, what is the likelihood that I won't find myself wanting in this field given the short timing as compared to 4years of undergraduate studies? is it even obtainable in the labor market? can I get a job as a financial officer with PGD and masters in finance but with Engineering degree cert? these and many more are my questions.

Please help me clarify them. Thank you

Funny enough, MOST of these hoes saying "I have spoken to my husband about it and he agrees I should go with you." are outrightly lying?

Exactly my thought, cos no man will agree to this ...
