nihilistjnr: There’s this friend of mine who made it to Staff Engineer and got a manager who knew how to kiss the right butts and he exemplified failing upwards. The new manager made working on the team so intolerable that a 10-man team had 6 resignations in one quarter. Ordinarily, that should be reason for inquiry but the manager got a promotion instead. Corporate politics is insane |

iamoyindamola: Lol..What's wrong with it though? I had to watch the video to understand the context before responding. He called them out for travelling out of the country without giving notice to anyone. He's essentially saying they all have their role to play in tackling the scourge of insecurity. Everything does not start and end with the minister of FCT. 1 Like |

DeadPresidents: My wife learnt this the hard way. When I was telling her, she will say promotion comes from God ![]() When she stayed four years on the same grade, she finally listened to me and eventually got promoted in her fifth year. Now she's sure of promotion every three years. |

iamoyindamola: They are closer to the people. They can help gather intel which will be given to security agents. No one is asking them to go and bring the kidnappers. |

iamoyindamola: But why do local council chairmen need to travel abroad often ? Wetin dem dey find outside their constituency in the first place ? Even in Lagos we’ve had some LCDA chairmen who live so far away from their LCDA which actually doesn’t make sense to me. They are meant to be the closest arm of government to the people . I think I agree with Wike here , how will the council chairmen know what’s happening in their council when they are far away in another continent ? How will they brief Wike the FCT ministers of happenings in their councils when they themselves are far away ? 1 Like 1 Share |

Somehow I wish it were possible to embed individual Nairaland comments as one can do with individual tweets. The back-and-forths so far about outsourcing services and the future of work from the everyday Nigerian (and African) perspective make for truly robust anecdotes with various key points touched on, particularly about skill competence and the place of networking. 2 Likes |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by BlueRayDick: 2:24pm On Jan 17 |
iamoyindamola: I don't think he's making excuse for anything; he's only addressing an anomaly that has been going on for too long. Normally a council chairman can travel abroad for annual leave and working visit when the need arises, but it doesn't make sense for a council chairman to spend weeks and even months outside their constituencies when they are not bed-ridden in an hospital. I believe if a council is always available and accessible, the people would find it easy communicating any major issue to them and some of these issues can be nipped in the bud before they get to a national scale. We can't say because Abuja happens to be the FCT where the seat of federal government is situated so the council chairmen should abdicate their duties na. |

BlueRayDick:But this as been going since forever even when he was a governor What did he do? Eventually he didn't tackle the issue at hand instead created a diversion |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by BlueRayDick: 2:43pm On Jan 17 |
iamoyindamola: The timing still doesn't make him wrong.He ruled Rivers as governor and not Abuja; neither me nor you know if LGA chairmen in Rivers were not gallivanting all over the world while he was governor. Now that he is FCT minister he has raised a very reasonable point, let the concerned council chairmen adjust and make themselves visible in their respective councils |

joseph1832:If you are educated your education is fundamentally flawed. 1. Why mention Peter Obi when he is not the president. So whatever Peter Obi can not do we should not expect Tinubu to do it? 2. Your response to those random statements is an indictment on how stupid your principal is since you accept those statements are stupid. Does making random statements serve as an excuse for inaccountability? Didn't those statements come from someone's brain? 9 Likes |

BlueRayDick:How does addressing the anomaly solve the question on ground? Unless it does I think it's a distraction. As a matter of fact, Wike should have been referring to himself when making that warning because he himself does not spend two consecutive days in Abuja before rushing back to Rivers. |

DissTroy: I think Nigerians are doing okay in the Tech and outsourcing world for now. Over Xmas I had this conversation with a friend and we came to conclusion that the fastest way to grow Nigeria was to develop outsourcing. East Asian countries have the jump on us India has like a 20yrs headstart over us and China maybe like a 50yrs headstart. What you will call the Tech revolution in Nigeria started less than 10yrs actually closer to 5yrs. In 2010 If you mention you have a Developer based in Nigeria people will look at you funny, but nowadays with the growth of online training platforms, the knowledge is spreading faster. And more Nigerians are tapping into it. Around 2009 In the US, At a very big organization I was working, I sent an email to a Distribution list and one Nigerian guy came to look for me cos my name was Nigerian the first he is seeing in the Tech side while we had over 300 Indians. Nowadays Nigerian names are getting more and more common in these space I still think very few people are into Tech in Nigeria compared to those countries. The more Nigerians get into that space the more we establish ourselves as a force in it. Because we have what Indians don't have which is determination and die there mentality We have some natural disadvantage. In the world of outsourcing the biggest currency is Trust and perception. An average westerner hears India/China and thinks smart, They hear Nigeria they think something else. If you are a white guy calling your bank and their call center is in India/Philippines you will be like Shitt I have to deal with terrible accent, If you call and hear Nigeria your mind goes to something totally different. It takes a while to correct that I have called Microsoft M365 to troubleshoot a license issue and the rep who picked it a smart girl that sounded young with a familiar accent, Pa pa pa in a few minutes figured the thing out and resolved it. After the call I asked for her name and I wasn't wrong she is Nigerian based in LAGOS!!. If I am to hire someone I will get her immediately 11 Likes 1 Share |

DissTroy: When I had that discussion with my friend over Xmas some of the solutions we think can work is if some Nigerians in corporate world in Nigeria and Diaspora get together 1. Go to a University campus outside Lagos preferably OAU, Liaise with the University that the sponsors will offer to pay a part of the student school fees, have a lab filled with laptops and trainers for different in demand IT skills. An initial 8weeks boot camp with many real world scenarios In exchange get them jobs which they can coordinate with their school work, and pay them. They have a bond time where they have to work with the organization, after the bond period you can leave or stay Tying it to the school setting ensures they are serious minded people, they are captured very young at the age of curiosity and fun not when you are doing things because you need to survive. Also we can use the data submitted to the school to track anyone who tries to be steal asset or data The choice of outside Lagos to stay away from typical Lagos distraction Note: A big percentage of Indian IT guys come from 1 school (cant recall the name of the school) I believe if Nigeria churn out 50K new Tech guys yearly. We will dominate Africa, and soon overtake the Asian countries 5 Likes |
