NIGERIAN JOB SEEKERS GROAN OVER ONGOING SECRET RECRUITMENTS


Nigerian job seekers are in quandary as news about secret employment fill the airwaves. This year 2019 appears to be the worst as recruited applicants are seen undergoing documentation in most Federal Ministries, Department and Agencies. Unlike before when most jobs vacancies are advertised, investigation shows the exact reverse these days. Further investigation reveals that members of the National Assembly have taken secondary interest in cornering all the available jobs for their siblings, nephews, cousins and associates. “This is an appalling situation we find ourselves”, disclosed an applicant by the name Sunday. “I have been applying for jobs for the past 8years; before I know it, the very place I apply for jobs I see documentation going on”!, he decried. “What’s going on in Nigeria?” another fellow applicant questioned. The man who gave his name as Stephen Olaleye frowned at this negative trend calling on President Buhari to intervene. Mr. Olaleye said that he learnt that the Central Bank of Nigeria recruited massively recently, hear him; “almost all of those recruited were done secretly and documented silently”! He wondered why his country has drifted this bad without any sanctions. “How would our children fare 20 years to come with only few people from privileged places are getting recruited”, Mr Olaleye asked. The truth however, as our reporters found out, transparency has since been thrown out of the window. Whereas private sectors advertise, the public sector is now more or less shrouded in absolute secrecy. With young school leavers increasing each year, and with the political leadership becoming more disconnected you may predict that a bleak future awaits them. “You cannot come out to promise the electorate that your government is going to recruit 500,000 workers and after your election, you recede into your cocoon”, Mr Olaleye declared. He added that the very essence of inspiring leadership appears to have been abandoned. For now, it is tears, fears and toil for Nigerian Job seekers.

WORSHIPPERS THRONG TO KUJE FOR BISHOP DAVID EDOBOR (ANGEL 1)

Kuje, a suburb in the capital city of Abuja is witnessing an unusual traffic: hundreds of worshippers are seen trooping to stadium road in Kuje where Bishop David Edobor, General Overseer of the Joshua Generation Church is blazing the trail, performing spiritual feats, healing, delivering and restoring damaged destinies. The young General Overseer popularly known as “mathematical prophetic” “accuracy bazooka” has declared repeatedly: ‘you can doubt my prophesies, but you cannot doubt the outcome!” Preaching last Sunday, 16 th September, the cleric disclosed that the examination of life has no timetable unlike that of common exams. He said that is the reason why worshippers must not toy with their destiny background-and where they come from. Bishop Edobor has restored many destinies and not a few people have had breakthroughs in marriage, travel overseas, employment, healing, etc. The Edo State born man of God has been variously described as “small oyedepo” from the way he prea...

STOP THE ILLEGAL DETENTIONS IN ICPC NOW BUHARI TOLD

The Independent Corrupt Practice and Other Related Matters Offences Commission (ICPC) were set as an anti-corruption agency to rein in persons involved in suspected shady deals and sharp practices. But in recent times as investigations have revealed The commission appears to have derailed as it is fast losing that tag as an anti-corruption agency.  Preliminary investigations have unearthed some sharp practices of illegal detentions on spurious charges, unauthorized raid and sealing of victims houses and unwarranted blockages of victim’s accounts. “This bad practice must be discontinued” declared Mr Rafiu Ibrahim, Secretary-General of Association for Good Governance and Transparency (AFGT). Throwing more light on the sad development, the Secretary-General wondered why the ICPC would detain without charges any suspected Nigerian for upwards of two weeks without proceeding to court, while systematically extorting various sums of money from the detained Nigerian.  The Secretary-Ge...
