At an interview to fill the vacancy of a Field Engineer in a multinational oil company, two competent and qualified Engineers were shortlisted and the company was to decide on who to retain and who to show the red card. They asked them If they could drive and they both answered in the affirmative even though only one of them could drive. The Head of the Human Resources spearheading the interview cum pruning session then handed his car keys to them to prove their driving skills within the premises. The over-confident applicant collected the car key, opened the car, switched on the ignition, lighted it up, sped off, swirled, swerved and made some stunts on wheels before parking the car on the same spot to the seeming rousing applause and mischievously knowing smile of the interviewers. The other applicant who could not drive collected the key all the same, opened the car, opened the bonnet, checked the engine oil level, the brake fluid level, the gear oil level and the water in the radiator level. As he closed the bonnet, the chief interviewer walked towards him and said: "Don't bother driving, you've just been hired!" Precaution is more powerful than expertise! The race is not for the swiftest, but to the wise! Don't be brash and over-confident. Learn the ropes and never back off from giving your best even If you don't possess what it takes. That someone is doing it fast doesn't mean he is doing it right! Direction is more important than speed! Exercise caution and take precaution in the journey of life- that's how to be recruited into the employment of success... #copied Good morning fam, have a productive week ahead 10 Likes 6 Shares |

Oh my God, I know this guy. We were in the same CDS group while serving in Benin, he was the assistant drama director while I was the Gen Sec. Cool guy...chai!!! I'm short of words now... MODs, kindly push this to FP. cc: Lalasticlala Seun Modified: Freshestguy, are you close to Odafe's family? I think it will be helpful to give a summary of the total funds he needs so as to give those who would like to help a kind of direction. 2 Likes 1 Share |

organicfoods:I have been a silent follower of this thread and all I can say is you are doing a great job. Kudos Sir!!! I got my BXs the same time as yours. Few days ago, I noticed diarrhea (watery poo) which is getting severe, I have been giving them vitalyte+dextrose from day2 except for days when I have to administer vaccines. I am not on the organic path though. What can be done to permanently stop the diarrhea? NOTE: I resumed giving them vitalyte after stopping 3 days ago to administer FP vaccine and honestly, they are feeding well. I must also add that I'm using the deep litter system. 1 Like 1 Share |

amicable09:Oya now...let there be sparkling sparks of love. amicable09:Yes, I did say the government should wade into this situation in the education sector especially in private schools by making all stakeholders accountable, this is not exonerating public schools. While the government has total control of public schools, they also have at least regulatory control over the privately owned ones. Let me explain a bit: In every local government, there are LIE offices from where personnels are deployed to monitor the activities of private schools in their LG. For instance, before any private school is approved to conduct external exams, LIE officers are supposed to make recommendations to the exam body after they might have visited (with prior notice) the school and assessed the state of facilities (classrooms, toilets, exam halls, laboratories et.al) and quality of man-power. Do you know what actually happens? The owner of the school is expected to "take good care" of the inspection team by providing meals and cash gifts for EVERY member of the team after paying the statutory fees into government coffers or risk victimization. Once the owner dances to the tune of the inspectors and at least has a building called "school," then he/she is sure to receive government approval. I am writing this from what I have both heard and seen and not common talk. I must also say not all private schools go through this, that is why I will classify them: 1. First Class Private Schools "A": They have well built and equipped structures, organizational structure is superb and staffers are well remunerated. Such schools are owned by the high and mighty in the society and they don't have to bribe anyone for government approval. Discipline is top-notch and students don't need to be "assisted" to pass exams because they are well prepared. Admission into such schools is very competitive. First Class Private Schools "B": They are also well run and structured. Parents get value for their money; fees are more affordable than their A counterparts. Some "assist" their candidates to make sure they pass. 2. Second Class Private Schools: They own their buildings which might not be well equipped because their focus is on making profits. Because population is more important, students are not admitted on merit & not well groomed for external exams. They are special centres where students are "assisted" to pass exams. 3. Third Class Private Schools: They operate in rented apartments, you find kerosene stoves in place of bunsen burners here Students' population is more important than quality of education, the owner's major aim is to move to permanent site asap. Here, you will find the best runz centres. The school lacks proper organizational structure and teachers are treated like slaves. NOTE: I am not against starting a school in a rented building. Amy, second and third class private schools are all over the place and they carry out their activities with reckless abandon even with cooperation from parents because some government officials have refused to do their jobs from scratch. This is contributing to the rot in the system. On the other hand, public schools are just what they are - breeding grounds for exam malpractices - much shouldn't be expected from them until the government decides to overhaul the whole system. This is the unfortunate state of our education sector which in my opinion should be one of the most regulated sectors. I hope we are not detailing this thread with this. 1 Like |

[b]Honestly, this exam malpractice of a thing is now rampant, it simply shows we have lost our values, we no longer uphold integrity in this part of the world. Private schools cum miracle centres put the future of the younger generation in jeopardy in a bid to make name and money, parents buy results for their wards to demonstrate that they "want the best" for them. This is the reason why we'll continue to produce killers in white overalls in the name of doctors, experience more buildings collapsing due to influx of quacks into the engineering profession, having lazy and incompetent teachers in our schools, having incompetent and corrupt leadership...etcetera. The government should do something about exam malpractice in the education sector especially in private schools by making all stake holders accountable before we get to a point-of-no-return. Op, if you trace the history of your protegé, he has been doing it right from when he was young, probably secondary school. It is really shameful. Amicable09, I like the fact that we still have people of integrity in this country, judging from your post, you are one. [/b] 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Laveda:Sorry about what your friend is facing. She should have discussed the matter with a lawyer before going to the police station; I don't think it is right to take remuneration issues between an employer & employee to the police in the first place because it isn't a criminal case, it is an industrial (or labour) case...I might be wrong. Can she provide proofs to show that the woman is owing her? (e.g bank statements if she receives her pay through the bank which I doubt) We have human rights lawyers who would like to take this up pro bono, please get one as that is what you need now. Lawyers on Nairaland, please advice op. |
