Business / Re: Greedy Seller's Sudden Increase Sparks Tension (video) by wisestman(m): 12:45pm On Mar 05
SoNature:


It's not a better offer. Prices change per second every day in Nigeria due to this dollar thingy, especially imported items.

The seller probably bought it for X amount and sold it at Y price only to realise that if he sells it at Y price he won't be able to replace it because his sources have increased their prices.

However, the seller should have confirmed the current price before selling. So, the buyer must go with his item.

It's still the same, he will still sell at a higher price after he refunds this buyer's money. I believe he will offer a refund if he doesn't want to sell. That's what most sellers do and we have experienced same. Buy you goods and carry it away or atlases to one corner

The seller probably got a better offer while the buyer was away. He just wants the buyer to either pay or ask for a refund if the new price is not okay with him. I don't see any wrong doing. Buyer should ask for a refund if not happy

Depsui:
I studied Mathematics and graduated with second class upper in 2022. Since then no job.

I'm hereby starting a 50 days hunger strike to protest the hardship in Nigeria.

Please support.

Instead of hunger strike, why don't you make it very profitable by turning it to fasting and prayer and see better results

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Share Your Experiences Working In A Private Company In Nigeria" by wisestman(m): 5:47pm On Nov 20, 2023
emekabassey:
My story is going to be long and the experience is far from pleasant

I worked for Fouani NIgeria Limited, the customer service department.
The manager is Lebanese, most will think this is enough justification for the way he acts but all other deartments in the company(that I know of) all have Lebanese managers but their story is so different from ours aside from the general issue of not giving employment/appointment letters, most these complaints is peculiar to that department of the company

Our manager does not allow any form of interaction amongst worker as you can be terminated for turning your head in the office, as in say you just turn neck o. Someone was terminated for laughing after office hours, work don close o and baba say the guy laugh and the next day na termination straight. Your job security depends on his mood, as he might just decide to terminate you with the excuse of 'we dont want you anymore'

Approval of leave is at his mercy, I can remember a staff, although she was due for 1 week leave, this man denied her despite the fact that this lady was seriously ill, he made her come to work even with the drip connected to her body as he told her she will be terminated if she doesnt work. This lady fainted twice at work that day and had to choose her life by resigning.

This is just one of the many cases of staffs that were terminated because they were absent from work because of illness even after informing he resumed with a medical report after being unable to come to work for 2 days and in this man's word "sorry, you can go home and rest. You will see your salary at the end of the month" That was the end of it.

This man has made the work environment so toxic and it is not strange to see staffs crying after leaving his office as he talks to staffs as if Nigerians are lesser humans, he called a teamlead a slut and accused her of sleeping with her team members because she does not deduct staff break, he threatened Samiat and promised to destroy her because the young lady wanted to quit and go for her youth service.

This man makes it his office policy to to limit staffs restroom usage to 7 minutes, anything beyond this can get you break deductions, warning letters and even termination. Whereas he who sets the rules spends 30 minutes in the restroom (You and I know that no one can control nature).

A Muslim staff was terminated for dosing during ramadan(this man na muslim o, and he prays 5 times daily) and so many others that I can't mention all that have face similar cases on a daily basis. He employs today and terminate tomorrow with a reliable reasons. There is a post on nairaland as far back as 2020 about this man.

Work time is Monday to Saturday 7:50AM to 5:30PM with no visible compensation for working overtime instead he tells you he is doing you a favor and you will get as much as 5,000 deducted from your salary which is more than double of our daily income.

Staffs break are deducted x3 of the minutes they came late to work despite the fact that their salaries will be deducted for same reason. I heard they protested against that recently and the break deductions has been stopped and replaced with more salary deductions for being late 1 minute past the resumption time of 7:50am, not even a grace period of 10minutes.

I made a more detailed post some weeks back on this man, e no easy at all.

If you have an advice for the people still there and know of a way for these ill to be corrected, please reach out and drop your comments as every bit of info here has evidence to back it up

Come and start doing real estate business as part time and then with time resign. All those customers that come to your department, just keep storing the numbers of those you know can buy land and start reaching out to them. With time, you wont even be looking at your salary.

Car Talk / Re: Ever Ordered A Car Abroad While In Nigeria & It Worked? Share Ur Experience by wisestman(m): 7:46am On Jun 13, 2023
Nannyservices:

The mechanic I took it to said the windshield has not been been replaced before, he poured more than a gallon of water on it to prove to me and I confirmed the issue isn't from the shield.
The panel beater I got now, declogged the pipes two days ago again immediately it rained today the problem sufficed.
wow, do u swim water on the road when it rains or your car is static and then you find water inside? if it's when u swim water that it occurs, that means there is a hole underneath the car, if it's static and you still find water even after declogging the pipes, then I still suspect that windshield. you may have to sit in the car when it's raining to observe the actual thing. Lastly, check if your AC water is leaking outside properly and not inside. you can check this yourself by checking if it's dripping from underneath the car while ON. maybe the hose got loose from the inside.

Not from the bonnet either...
Once it rains,inside of the car is very dry but once I remove the footmat everywhere is soaked...

I bet it's from your windshield, check it yourself by splashing water continuously on your windshield and checking the inside. I bet your windshield was replaced and the guy didn't do it well. I suffered this same issue until I had to uninstall and reinstall it. I gave the guy a sound warning to use enough gum...The issue stopped.

My conscience is judging me.

A woman that i sometimes patronize left a kid to watch her shop. I wanted to buy rice. I ask him for the price because the price do flunctuate, which he said it is 100, no 50, no 20 naira. I shock, then the devil enter me and i said whether e no go sell 10. I told him to sell me 5cup of rice, after he measured and tied it, i gave him 100 and told him to take the remaining 50 and not to tell the woman so that she will not collect his 50 tip.

Kid was happy, i was happy, trader lose.

Now this evening, rice no let me eat, i am just thinking of going back to do restitution.

How do i go about it without the trader getting angry?

Go back to the shop and tell the woman you mistakenly gave her child N50 instead of the supposed amount out of haste. This act is not good at all

Pastor Chris Reveals Candidate to Vote for Ahead of Nigeria's Presidential Polls.

📍THE FIRST CANDIDATE
He is not himself.
He is under the influence of a devil.
This devil was mocking and laughing, scoffing at Nigerians. The devil is using him.
It's a wicked spirit of darkness, a mocker.
The devil's name is jackal.
A jackal is a trickster, a swindler who usually operates on behalf of another for the purpose of deception.
This demon is mocking Nigeria.
But he’s been cut off.

📍THE SECOND CANDIDATE
In the spirit, the second candidate, if you let him get into office, you will have no country. You would have sold your country.

📍 THE THIRD CANDIDATE Then in the spirit, the 3rd candidate was afraid of winning. He didn't want to lose but he was afraid of winning. Then I prayed, Lord give him wings to fly!

‘Pack Your Belongings, Leave Zamfara Immediately’ –Governor Matawalle Orders All NGOs To Vacate Nigerian State

NEWS
The government ordered security agencies in the state to investigate and prosecute any NGO still operating in the state in defiance of the directive.

The Zamfara State government has ordered all non-governmental organisations in the state to pack their belongings and leave the state immediately.

The government ordered security agencies in the state to investigate and prosecute any NGO still operating in the state in defiance of the directive.

The state government in a statement issued on Tuesday by the state’s security and home affairs commissioner, Mamman Tsafe, accused many NGOs in the state of engaging in illegal activities.


The Governor Bello Matawalle-led government also ordered Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to cease any form of relationship with the NGOs, warning that it will heavily sanction any MDA that flouts the directive.

In the statement, the government “noted that the majority of these illegal NGOs have not registered with the state in line with the laid down rules and regulations of the government”.

“Some of them have also been found to be engaging in activities fueling insecurity in the state and its neighbourhood,” it said.

Dropping the bombshell, it said, “Henceforth, the government orders all NGOs in the state to pack their belongings and leave the state immediately.

“Ministries and Departments of government have been ordered to stop any further relationships with any NGO, as punitive measures will be taken against any MDAs found having any relationships with such NGOs.

“Security agencies in the state are by this announcement directed to be vigilant to the NGOs. Security agencies are hereby directed to investigate and prosecute any NGOs operating in the state without due clearance from designated authorities. Results of such prosecutions are to be forwarded to this Ministry for records please.”

Politics / Picture Of New DPO In Lagos Causes Stir On Social Media by wisestman(m): 12:54pm On Feb 07, 2023
A photograph of the Divisional Police Officer of the Victoria Island Divisional Police Headquarters under the Lagos State Police Command, Taiwo Adewunmi Oyewale, has set the social media abuzz.

The photograph, by a Twitter user, simply said: See who will arrest you if you commit a crime in Victoria Island.

Oyewale, a Chief Superintendent of Police, who had before she was moved to Victoria Island Divisional Headquarters with office at the Bar Beach area, served as the DPO for Area ‘F’ in Ikeja, Lagos State, comes highly recommended by her colleagues and the public.

For instance, prominent Nollywood actor, Kate Henshaw, had praised her without stating the exact reason for it.

Henshaw, the spokesperson of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, wrote on her Twitter handle: “Thank you CSP Taiwo Oyewale.

“Thank you for caring.

“It’s refreshing to see

“God bless you.”

As the DPO of Area ‘F’ in Ikeja, another Twitter user said she got rid of drug addicts and sellers “in effort to return Ikeja to a more peaceful place to stay”.

More recently, she received praise for her handling of detainees under her as the DPO in charge of Bar Beach.

This is considering the fact that over the years, detainees had the inhumane torture, abuse and deprivation of basic needs they are subjected to.

This was why the spokesperson of the Lagos State Police Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, praised her commendable strides while retweeting a post made by a justice watch organisation, Citizens Gavel.

Hundeyin tweeted: “We will continue to do better.

“We are all proud of CSP Taiwo Oyewale, DPO Victoria Island Diviison, for her commendable strides.”

According to Citizens Gavel, the organisation in collaboration with the Nigeria Bar Association, Legal Aid Council and other sister organisations paid an unscheduled visit to the Bar Beach Police Station, Victoria Island Division.

In the course of the visitation and interview with the suspects detained at the Police Station, they observed that the officers complied with section 34 (1)(a) of the CFRN 1999 (as amended) as suspects confirmed to them that they were neither tortured nor subjected to inhumane or degrading treatment.

It was learnt that relatives of suspects were also notified and legal representatives were provided.

Suspects were also allowed to speak with their relatives or other persons of choice in compliance with section 35(2)(a) of the Police Act, 2020.

The post stated that the organisation obtained the promise of the police that the suspects would be granted administrative bail before the expiration of 24 hours in compliance with section 35 of the CFRN 1999 (as amended).

The organisation gave kudos to the good officers at the Bar Beach Police station,Victoria Island Division and implored them to keep up the great work.
