It really depends on what you really think or consider before taking any decision. Think positively and deeply because we are all a product of our actions. Just remember that anywhere you find yourself in the future, you have already made an appointment to be there |

No employment letter means your employment can be denied, it also means you can be sacked at any time, as in the guy can wake up tomorrow morning and tell you to pack your load and gedifok for absolutely no reason, and there's nothing you can do, and it means you're another government ghost worker. Oga if they can't employ you the normal way, better stay with the MFB. Use your head! Maybe dem want to use you for ritual and dump you on the road, then there won't be any concrete evidence you were working for them. Never trust any 9ja politician! 2 Likes 1 Share |

I will say this is truly a dicy decision and you should be very carefully while making your choice. If you take the govt job, it will expose you in terms of wider experience and connection. The govt job will open your eyes to certain things like business opportunities and any other hustle which you can survive with even when the govt job is no longer there. For the microfinance job, bro you can stay there for 20 years without increment in that your salary. Forget the job security cos ones you start small with such orginazation you will keep crawling in your career growth and at the end of the day you might even resign on your own after wasting so many years. My take, go for the govt job. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Take new job and get more skills (get certified). Ull most likely have more time on your hands PS : make sure there's at least an official authentic document to show for your time as a network administrator/ ICT manager in a government setup 1 Like |

TheSkyIsRed:Ordinarily I would advice that you accept the new offer solely because you may make good connections but my first hand experience of these type of unsecured jobs is not good at all. First you can be sacked at anytime for any reason.2nd these politically exposed people dont honour their agreements.He may pay you for 1 or 2 months and start owing you till you get angry and leave. 3rd that you know big people does not mean that they would help us when you need them.Most will not pick your calls or reply your messages. So my advice..Ask yourself what kind of a person is this SA.Can he be trusted?Does he have a history of helping young people? Have you visited his office to get a sense of the environment you will be working in if you agree.Go there and your intuition will know whether you are meant to be there or not.Goodluck 7 Likes |

2-3 yrs is a short time. & u know when new gov assumes office,u & whoever u may think u know,are definitely out. Taking risks in life is a must & it turns out either way. The new job i believe will fetch u time to venture into side biz. If u have any biz plan u will love to try,then go with the new job. I believe the time frame is enough to build the biz. 36Ă—10=360k plus free accomodation plus the new biz,u must be better off. But gov sabi sidon for person salary! Goodluck |

I'd say take this new opportunity only if you are given an official appointment letter. |

TheSkyIsRed:You have a skill as a network administrator and you want to stick with a 40k job?. Go and take the SA job, what you do for him is not what these yours can do, the next govt may need you. What I'm I even saying? Won't you know your way before the tenure ends in 3yrs? |

Short story: Stay with your bank Job! If he/she is an SSA or a Special Adviser, maybe I'll say take the risk and make the switch, but for an SA, answer is NO! Long story: The SA who wants to employ you does not have job security also. An SA is a political appointee, he/she most likely didn't recieve a customized engagement letter detailing his roles and responsibilities for his principal. The governor issues a circular followed immediately by a Press Release that confirms the SA's appointment, so he/she can't give you an engagement letter when he/she most likely doesn't have one. I can go on and on, with regards to the process of documentation for the appointment. The current salary been proposed by your would be employer will drop I can assure you, governors have cut appointee salaries by a huge margin recently due to cashflow challenges. The bank offers you the best career path coupled with the added bonus of job security. Start building your accounting skills - professional certification is great if you can afford the ICAN classes. If not learn how to use Quickbooks/SAGE and if you have a Banking/Accounting background, brush up on your financial reporting for Not for Profits. While you are it, take online courses on procurement/supply chain and taxation (basic treatments of income tax and WHT will suffice for now). Show proof of progress in 6 months and remind me of this thread, I will guarantee you a physical interview for a project that starts next year. 8 Likes |
