Pls how, am dying in it
If you have decided that you would like to stop masturbating there are a few methods you can take to start curbing the habit.
Stop feeling guilty - The first step in getting over an addicting behavior is to stop feeling guilty for indulging. If you are dwelling on your bad behavior, it only makes it more tempting to continue. Some also find they are just as addicted to the guilt as they are to masturbating in the first place. It is perfectly acceptable to make mistakes and stumble along your path to recovery. Forgive yourself and move on rather than focusing on your slip ups instead of beating yourself up and focusing excessive energy on this incident.
Rid enablers - Remove anything that increases your temptation to participate in masturbation. If you have a stash of toys or paraphernalia, throw it away. Block websites on your computer that allow you to access pornographic content. If you have someone in your home that you are comfortable sharing this with, ask them to reset your passwords so you will not be able to remove these bans yourself. Avoid situations such as hot showers or staying up late so you will not be tempted.
Fill up your social schedule - Do this so that you do not feel bored and lonely. Loneliness increases the temptation to masturbate, especially if you feel as though you are using masturbation as a replacement for romantic interaction. Boredom gives your mind time to wander to sexual thoughts and provides the time and energy to masturbate.
Join in activities and find new hobbie - As you work to fill up your schedule with other activities, you will want to find another channel for your energy. Finding a creative outlet for your energy will fill up your time and give you something to feel satisfied about so you do not need masturbation to be satisfied. Find a new hobby, join a club, start playing sports or find a volunteer activity that you can use to fill up your time.
Alter your diet - Increasing your intake of fruits and vegetables can make you feel more alert and give you the energy you need to take part in other activities. This can also boost brainpower, giving you the push you need to resist your urge to masturbate.
Be patient - You are not going to be able to stop masturbating overnight. It is perfectly understandable if you have a relapse or struggle with letting go of your habit. Set up a reward system or checkpoint that you can use to keep yourself motivated. This will help you avoid dwelling on the negative and allowing a mistake from blocking your way to recovery.
Find someone trustworthy. Sometimes you might need help to completely stop masturbating. Find someone you can trust such as a religious leader or counselor so you can talk through your urges and find a set of tools that can help you stop. There are counselors that specialize in providing counseling and care to those with sexual addictions who may be able to help you find healthy ways to rid yourself of these urges.

BACKGROUND

The Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) is the office within USAID that is responsible for providing emergency non-food humanitarian assistance in response to international crises and disasters. OFDA is part of the Bureau for Democracy, Conflict, and Humanitarian Assistance (DCHA) and is organized into six divisions.

The Africa (AFD) Response Division and the Asia, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East (ALE) Response Division are responsible for the provision of emergency humanitarian assistance through a grants mechanism to non-governmental organizations (NGOs), international organizations including United Nations (UN) agencies and to other partners to ensure the implementation and delivery of this assistance. These divisions also oversee OFDA’s non-response efforts in disaster risk reduction and resilience. AFD and ALE Response Divisions also coordinate with other organizations for the provision of relief supplies and assistance. They devise, coordinate and implement program strategies for a variety of natural and complex disaster situations. Both Divisions encompass groups of operations specialists who provide technical expert capability in assessing the quality and strategic function of disaster response and risk reduction activities. The AFD Response Division is divided into two teams: East and Central Africa (ECA), and Southern, West, and North Africa (SWAN). The ALE Response Division is divided into four teams: East Asia and the Pacific (EAP), Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia (EMCA), Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), and South Asia.

The Operations (OPS) Division develops and manages operations for OFDA’s disaster responses by readying people and systems; projecting U.S. Government (USG) humanitarian capacity quickly into the field; and delivering material and technical assistance. The OPS Division maintains readiness to respond to emergencies through several mechanisms, including managing Urban Search and Rescue Teams, coordinating, staffing, training, and equipping Disaster Assistance Response Teams (DARTs), and Washington-based Response Management Teams (RMTs), and stockpiling emergency relief commodities in key locations around the globe to ensure OFDA’s capacity to execute and coordinate USG humanitarian assistance and response to natural disasters and complex emergencies. The OPS Division provides technical guidance and expertise in Disaster Logistics, Urban Search and Rescue, Operations Center management, activation/readiness, Civil-Military Liaison, and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive Consequence Management. It also provides overseas support to OFDA offices and personnel and to other sectors necessary to ensure OFDA’s capacity to execute and coordinate USG humanitarian assistance and response to natural disasters and complex emergencies. The OPS Division is divided into four teams: the Disaster Assistance Support Program (DASP), Military Liaison Team (MLT), Operations Support Team (OST), and Overseas Administration Team (OAT).

The Program Support (PS) Division provides operational management support, including general administration, budget and financial services, procurement planning, information technology, human resources management including staff care, and contract and grant administration support to OFDA. The PS Division supports OFDA's mandate by providing innovative solutions in the areas of Information Technology, staffing, funds control, budgeting, human resource management, and procurement to facilitate timely disaster responses. The PS Division is divided into four teams: the Award Change Control Group (ACCG), Human Resources Management Team (HRM), Budget, Finance, and Information Technology (BFIT) Team, and the Acquisition and Management (ACQ) Team.

The Preparation, Strategic Planning and Mitigation (PSPM) Division is responsible for the technical oversight of all OFDA response and mitigation programs, as well as preparation for response, mitigation, and disaster risk reduction activities. The PSPM Division houses technical experts in all sectors potentially affected by disasters, and leads the Agency in developing and promoting best practices for programming in these specific sectors. In addition, PSPM will be the focal point for technological innovations for humanitarian assistance in areas such as monitoring and evaluation, assessment, and information management. The PSPM Division is divided into four teams: Cross-Cutting Sectors Team, Natural Hazards Team, Health Team, and Livelihoods Team.

The Humanitarian Policy and Global Engagement (HPGE) Division assists the DCHA front office, the OFDA Director and OFDA Deputy Director with tracking trends and policy developments in the humanitarian assistance field. It engages in policy dialogue with other parts of USAID, the USG interagency, other donors, multilateral agencies, and NGO partners; recommends strategies for action to DCHA; initiates development of policy and internal guidance for OFDA; maintains global relationships with implementing partners, other donors, and the broader humanitarian architecture; and engages with the UN to advance USG humanitarian policy objectives and promote humanitarian principles within the USG and internationally. The HPGE Division leads OFDA's communications and social media outreach to effectively communicate OFDA’s story to a variety of strategic audiences. It serves as the office’s primary interlocutor on strategic issues with other federal partners to provide guidance to OFDA on policy issues pertaining to the interagency, and to improve USG humanitarian coordination and response during large-scale crises. The HPGE Division staff manages global programs, policy and outreach, strategic communications, and interagency training and engagement. The HPGE Division also includes Humanitarian Advisors located in Rome, Geneva, and United States Mission to the UN in New York. The HPGE Division is divided into five teams: the Interagency Team, Policy Team, Program Team, Training Team, and Strategic Communications Team.

INTRODUCTION

Following escalated violence in northeastern Nigeria attributed to the Boko Haram militant group, the Government of Nigeria declared a state of emergency in the states of Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe in March 2013. The conflict has also created issues around the lake region and is affecting both Cameroun and Chad. As of July 2016, the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in northeastern Nigeria is approximately 2.1 million people according to a June 2016 report from the International Organization for Migration. Priority needs include food, medical care, nutrition assistance, protection services, and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) support. Ongoing violence continues to limit humanitarian access, although large areas of Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe states have become more accessible since 2015. Since 2011, more than 6,000 people have died in attacks carried out by Boko Haram in Nigeria, according to media sources, and despite losing considerable territory, Boko Haram continues to represent a sustained threat in parts of northeastern Nigeria. Violence in the northeast has significantly impacted on harvests and markets, resulting in high levels of food insecurity and malnutrition.. Insecurity may also trigger longer-term consequences in the region, as Nigeria serves as West Africa’s largest supplier of staple cereals. OFDA support interventions include health, livelihoods, and nutrition assistance, as well as psychosocial support, improved water and sanitation services, and relief item distribution for IDPs and other vulnerable populations.

The Senior Humanitarian Advisor (SHA) is OFDA’s principal humanitarian representative in Nigeria and is currently located in Abuja, Nigeria. The SHA is responsible for overseeing the OFDA humanitarian assistance portfolio in Nigeria, which exceeded $12 million during fiscal year 2015.

OBJECTIVE

USAID/OFDA requires the services of a SHA for Nigeria to ensure that OFDA’s objectives for disaster assistance, risk reduction, strategic reporting, interagency coordination, and situational analysis are met in the ongoing response.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

This position requires an individual to manage and represent the humanitarian portfolio for Nigeria. The incumbent will serve as the primary contact and liaison for OFDA's ongoing humanitarian assistance activities in Nigeria, as well as for disaster risk reduction programs. The incumbent will work closely with USAID/Nigeria Mission staff, the US Embassy, other U.S. Agencies as appropriate, international organizations (IOs), non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the United Nations (UN), to respond to humanitarian needs and sudden onset disasters. The SHA will be responsible for program analysis; strategy development; and coordination with relief agencies, other donors, and USG interagency partners, as well as reporting to OFDA Western and North Africa Regional Office in Dakar, Senegal and OFDA Washington, and collaborating with USAID/Nigeria and U.S. Embassy/Nigeria staff, as required.

This position requires substantial coordination with representatives from other USAID offices, the US Embassy, other U.S. Government (USG) agencies, the Federal Republic of Nigeria, U.S. military representatives, as well as with relevant donor representatives and United Nations (UN) and NGO agencies, therefore requiring a highly collaborative work style. The SHA must be prepared to function effectively in a challenging and restrictive work environment and be willing to strictly adhere to U.S. Embassy security guidelines. www.justjobsng.com

Working directly under the guidance and supervision of the OFDA Senior Regional Advisor (SRA) for South, West, and North Africa, with regular interaction with the designated RA covering Nigeria and in consultation with USAID/Nigeria, the incumbent will:

Job Title: Consultancy – Study on the Policy, Legal and Operational Enactment of the ACJ Act

Location: Abuja and Travel to Other Locations as Required, NIGERIA
Time left: 12d 11h 34m
Additional Category: Governance and Peacebuilding
Type of Contract: Individual Contract
Post Level: National Consultant
Duration of Initial Contract: 40 days
Expected Duration of Assignment: 40 days unill 30 December 2016

Background
The ACJ Act was passed on 14th May 2015 and marks a milestone in the fight to cleanse the criminal justice system as it drastically addresses many challenges in the administration of criminal justice at the Federal level and in the FCT. The ACJ Act aims to ensure the speedy dispensation of justice, protection of society from crime, and the protection of the rights and interests of both the defendant and the victim. The Act promotes interagency cooperation, particularly through the establishment of the Administration ACJ Monitoring Committee which is a body consisting of the heads of criminal justice institutions with the responsibility of monitoring the implementation of the ACJ Act.
Despite the passage of the Act, very little progress has been made towards ensuring the effective implementation of the same, limiting the impact of the Act. The project seeks to identify the legal, policy and operational implications of the ACJ Act to provide holistic insight into the necessary tangible and intangible structures which must be in place in order for particular aspects of the ACJ Act to be implemented.
Acknowledging the vital role of the Monitoring Committee which was inaugurated in March 2016 but which has not yet held its first meeting, the project aims to support the said Committee to monitor compliance of justice sector institutions with core provisions of the ACJ Act which target the speedy dispensation of justice and prison decongestion, namely:

Time limits for remand under Sections 293-299 which provide that a suspect may be held on remand for a combined period of 28 days, after which the prosecution must show cause why suspect should not be unconditionally released;
Time frame for summary trials under section 110 (4) which provides that a summary trial must commence within 30 days of bringing the charge, and completed within 180 days of arraignment on that charge; and
Limits to number of adjournments under Section 396 which provides that each party to the proceeding is entitled to a maximum of 5 adjournments and the next adjourned date should be within 14 days of the hearing in which the adjournment was granted.
To this end, the study will include a review of the data management systems of Kuje Prison with the view to update same and develop the necessary training manuals to build the capacity of prison officials and other relevant justice sector actors in collecting, managing and analysing data. The project intends for the data to be routinely be made available to the Monitoring Committee to assist with monitoring of the implementation of the said provisions of the ACJA as well as the review and development of policies towards addressing any challenges identified in the data analysis.
The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) therefore seeks to encourage the use of credible and empirical data by justice sector institutions to ensure the development of meaningfully targeted and sustainable policies for justice reform under the “Support to Justice Sector in Nigeria” Project as part of its broader interventions towards the justice sector policy development, ensuring access to justice and respect for human rights.

Duties and Responsibilities
The Consultant’s service is sought to produce a report on the legal, policy and operational implications of implementation of the ACJ Act and build the capacity of justice sector institutions to monitor, evaluate and manage the implementation of the ACJ Act as it relates to the Nigerian Prisons Service for the purposes of improved justice delivery, strengthened interagency cooperation among justice sector institutions, less congested prisons, improved respect for the human rights of the defendant and victim, better informed policy development towards justice sector reform and overall more efficient implementation of the ACJ Act.

Job Title: Consultancy (TOT) – Support to the Fight Against Trafficking in Persons
Location: Abuja with Travel to States
Additional Category: Governance and Peacebuilding
Type of Contract: Individual Contract
Post Level: National Consultant
Starting Date: 01-Sep-2016 (date when the selected candidate is expected to start)
Duration of Initial Contract: 20 working days
Expected Duration of Assignment: 20 working days
Background
Trafficking in persons (TIP), especially women and children, in Nigeria, is intrinsically related to a number of factors. Predominant among these are poverty, large family size, lack of educational opportunities, lack of employment and low status of children and women. Other factors facilitating trafficking in persons include ignorance on the part of families and children of the risks involved in trafficking, the high demand for cheap and submissive child labour in the informal economic sector, the desire of youth for emancipation through migration, institutional lapses such as inadequate political commitment, and limited capacities among the law enforcement officers that impede traffickers and accomplices from being effectively investigated, prosecuted and punished for their acts.
Additional factors facilitating trafficking in persons in the country include porous borders, involvement of international organised crime groups or networks, limited capacity or commitment by immigration and law enforcement officers to control trafficking at the borders, and insufficient capacities to enforce existing legislation or mandate. Nigeria has demonstrated commitment to combating TIP, including by introducing improved policy and institutional measures.
In 2015, significant achievement was made in legislation with the Presidential assent to the Trafficking in Persons (Prohibition) Enforcement and Administration Act, 2015 on March 26, 2015, which repealed the former Act and establishes the National Agency For The Prohibition Of Traffic In Persons (NAPTIP).
NAPTIP has wide-reaching and cross-cutting functions in addressing trafficking in persons, including prevention, awareness raising and sensitisation, victim/witness support and protection, investigation, prosecution, rehabilitation, and coordination of anti-trafficking efforts. Furthermore, NAPTIP, in its efforts to combat human trafficking, benefits from collaboration with other Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) in Nigeria, whose Training Academies it has used to train a number of its own officials. The joint training conducted at these academies has further improved synergies between the Agencies.
Presently however, the instructors at these LEA Training Academies need to be enriched with deep knowledge of TIP and relevant skills and also there is need for a uniform curriculum on TIP to impart standardised knowledge and skills on TIP to the trainees.
Based on the foregoing, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) is partnering with the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) in implementing the project ‘Support to the Fight against Trafficking in Persons (TIP) in Nigeria – NGAZ52’
The overall objective of the Project is to strengthen the criminal justice response to trafficking in persons in Nigeria. The project aims to achieve this by providing comprehensive capacity building sessions to NAPTIP investigators and prosecutors and creating a pool of master trainers among the investigators and prosecutors. The project will revise the current training curriculum and customised training tools developed for the Training Academies of the Law Enforcement Agencies, as well as provide specific training to 25 key instructors of the Training Academies on TIP.
The project envisages these trainings as a tool to enable better investigation and prosecution of TIP cases and actions to combat human trafficking. The project will contribute to and complement the EU funded project ‘Promoting Better Management of Migration in Nigeria by Combating and Reducing Irregular Migration that occurs, inter alia, through TIP and SOM’. NODC West Africa Research Activities Final Report, p.8. The Report is the result of the research conducted within the framework of the UNODC project FS/RAF/01/R13 “Measures to Combat Trafficking in Human Beings in Benin, Nigeria and Togo”, which constitutes the first phase of RAF/R92.
Duties and Responsibilities
The consultancy is required to contribute to the overall success of the project through capacity-building for law enforcement officers, investigators and prosecutors that will result in the following outcomes:
Enhanced skill and knowledge of investigators and prosecutors to continue training other officers;
Enhanced capacity of instructors from Law Enforcement Academies to provide continuous and standardized training on TIP in their training academies.
This training will benefit NAPTIP and key Law Enforcement Agencies’ academies that are front line responders on combating human trafficking (The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS); the Nigeria Police Force (NPF); and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Department of State Security, Federal Road Safety Commission, Nigeria Customs Service).
Specific tasks to be performed by the consultant:
Under the supervision of the Project Coordinator TIP/SOM unit, with direct support from the National Project Officer – Victim Support, Rehabilitation and Grant, the consultant will perform the following specific tasks:
Develop a 5-day training syllabus and lead the Training of Trainers (TOT) on adult training techniques for 25 investigators and prosecutors from NAPTIP; and
Develop a 5-day training syllabus and lead the Training of Trainers (TOT) on adult training techniques for 25 instructors of Law Enforcement Academies.
Expected tangible and measurable output(s)/deliverable(s):
