Dear Nairalanders,

I worked on the possibility of publishing a book with as low as N25,000 only using Direct Printing Technology. It works.

Now, I can self-publish my books in Nigeria and help any young author who may wish to turn their scripts into books.

However, publishing my books is one aspect of book business. The other important aspect are those of marketing and distribution of these books.

I here wish to request and solicit for information, training and mentoring on HOW TO SELL/MARKET BOOKS IN NIGERIA, from Nairalanders.

Best Regards!

I can't access my gmail even after a message by gmail team that my account is active. Pease what could I do?

Thanks.

Dear Nairalanders. Please I'd like to know if I could change my username on Nairaland and how to. Thanks

I opine that we should appreciate creativity and regard innovation. I love people who stand out from the crowd creating inventions from creative thinking.

Simply Child Abuse.

Great tips. Great teacher.

Congratulations!!!!!!!

I have read the bible many times over. I studied it to earn certificates and degrees. I read it looking for solutions to general and specific problems.

I sincerely appreciate the intellectual and academic works of bible critics especially works by the Jehovah Witnesses and some moslem clerics, pointing bible errors and contradictions to christians.

However it is unfortunate that these critics do not know about scriptural contextualization. That is the understanding of two or more scriptures in different conext. Hence these look like contradictions.

I cannot disproof the fact that there are some typographic errors and some texts that sound contradictory to one another, they are simply HUMAN ERRORS that prevail in other religios books.

It's a nice tip, thanks.

Dear sir. Someone is attending a job interview tomorrow. He got an hint that the interviewers would ask him this

question? My email is layiola22@gmail.com

chosenone4:
1. How would you describe yourself?

Sample excellent response:
My background to date has been centered around preparing myself to become the very best financial consultant I can become. Let me tell you specifically how I've prepared myself. I am an undergraduate student in finance and accounting at _________ University. My past experiences has been in retail and higher education. Both aspects have prepared me well for this career.


2. What specific goals, including those related to your occupation, have you established for your life?

Sample excellent response:
I want to be working for an excellent company like yours in a job in which I am managing information. I plan to contribute my leadership, interpersonal, and technical skills. My long-range career goal is to be the best information systems technician I can for the company I work for.


3. How has your college experience prepared you for a business career?

Sample excellent response:
I have prepared myself to transition into the the work force through real-world experience involving travel abroad, internship, and entrepreneurial opportunities. While interning with a private organization in Ecuador, I developed a 15-page marketing plan composed in Spanish that recommended more effective ways the company could promote its services. I also traveled abroad on two other occasions in which I researched the indigenous culture of the Mayan Indians in Todos Santos, Guatemala, and participate in a total language immersion program in Costa Rica. As you can see from my academic, extracurricular, and experiential background, I have unconditionally committed myself to success as a marketing professional.


4. Please describe the ideal job for you following graduation.

Sample excellent response (equates ideal job with job he's interviewing for):
My ideal job is one that incorporates both my education and practical work skills to be the best I can be. Namely combining my education in finance with my working knowledge of customer service operations, entrepreneurial abilities, computer skills, and administrative skills. I want to utilize my analytical expertise to help people meet their financial goals. This is exactly why I am convinced that I would be a very valuable member of the Accenture team.


5. What influenced you to choose this career?

Sample excellent response:
My past experiences have shown me that I enjoy facing and overcoming the challenge of making a sale. Without a doubt, once I have practiced my presentation and prepared myself for objections, I feel very confident approaching people I don't know and convincing them that they need my product. Lastly, I like sales because my potential for success is limited only by how much of myself I dedicate toward my goal. If any profession is founded on self-determinism, it surely must be sales.

6. At what point did you choose this career?

Sample excellent response:
I knew that I wanted to pursue information systems technology about my sophomore year in college. It was then that I realized that my hobby (computers) was taking up most of my time. My favorite courses were IT courses. I also realized that I was doing computer-oriented work-study that I enjoyed so much I would have done it for free.
7. What specific goals have you established for your career?

Sample excellent response:
My goals include becoming a Certified Financial Advisor so I can obtain a better working knowledge of financial research analysis, which would allow me contribute to my client base as a better financial consultant since I would have that extra insight into the companies they are seeking to invest in. Also this is the foundation block to advancing my career to portfolio manager or even branch office manager.


8. What will it take to attain your goals, and what steps have you taken toward attaining them?

Sample excellent response:
I've already done some research on other workers at Accenture to see how they achieved similar goals. I know that Accenture encourages the pursuit and will reimburse for tuition of a graduate degree. I plan on pursuing a MBA to give me an even more extensive knowledge of business and financial analysis.

Some people can lie sha
reciting 1-60 to subdue anger

I think that someone who lies @50+ without a justifiable cause is a fool but I don't know about someone who does not believe the word of elders!

Speak to an attorney. Find out what your options are. I’m not sure about there, but the initial consultation is usually free here in the US. If you go to an attorney that is not familiar with this type of case, they can refer you to the right one. Good luck to you.

Thanks.

Pensioners please let's discuss our issues here for possible resolutions of our plights.

I retired as a federal civil servant and I was due for pension since March 2005. After series of verification and bio-data capturing exercises, I have not been enrolled into the payment system.

Kindly what practical steps can I take to get my pension arreas since 2005 paid to me?

Please what is the hope of pensioners like me who was due for federal pension since 2005 but yet to be enrolled after series of verification and capturing exercises? What other practical steps can I take to get my pension arrears since 2005 paid to me?

It's very important that ordination of pastors be made public allowing friends and neighbors attest to their characters, temperaments and emotions, on the first hand.

All Christian Workers should be made to attend specialized training seminars/workshops on issues of marriage, ethics and morals regularly.

General Overseers should be concerned about the financial and family affairs of their church workers beyond using them to enrich themselves!

I recite the Lord's prayer and sometimes, I count 1 - 60 silently during which my anger subsides!

I have not been enrolled into pension payment since 2005 and someone is sharing my right away!I appeal to God!

chidisco124: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has uncovered how Steve Oronsaye, a former Head of Service, and other top directors of the Nigerian civil service colluded to allegedly defraud the nation of about N6.2 billion pension fund.

The fund, allegedly stolen through a maze of bogus contracts, was meant for biometric enrollment and payment for computer accessories that were never supplied, PREMIUM TIMES has learnt.

Mr. Oronsaye, 63, was appointed the Head of the Nigerian Civil Service in 2009.

According to a reliable source in the EFCC, between 2009 and 2010, almost N6 billion in fake contracts were awarded and paid for under Mr. Oronsaye’s supervision.

A few weeks ago, Mr. Oronsaye was invited by the anti-graft commission to answer questions relating to the multi billion naira pension fund.

Mr. Oronsaye wouldn’t comment for this story. When PREMIUM TIMES contacted him on Sunday, the former head of service said he was in a meeting.

He did not honour our request for him to return our call after his meeting. He also did not respond to a text message sent to him.

The fraud

According to the EFCC, Innovative Solutions and Project Limited, a company allegedly handpicked by Mr. Oronsaye, received a contract of N63 million for biometric data capture. The contract, however, served as a conduit through which three individuals and five companies got N705,368,245.

Other companies who had no contract to participate in the biometric data capture exercise but were paid include Frederick Hamilton Global Limited, who received N119,398,500; Xangee Technologies got N153,146,719; Fatidek Venture received N30,056,000; while Obanlado Enterprises was paid N96,765,400.00.

During its investigations, the EFCC uncovered how Phina Chidi, a deputy director in the Pension Account at the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation, OHCSF, who had given a written statement to the commission in January, 2011, disclosed to the agency how she was made to shop for companies that would execute contracts and make returns to Mr. Oronsaye.

“I was asked by Dr. Shuaibu (Teildi Shuaibu, director, Pension Account) to shop for company names to execute our contracts, proceeds of which should be given to Mr. Stephen Oronsaye the then Head of Service,” Mrs. Chidi said in her latest statement.

Mrs. Chidi also detailed how the proceeds of such deals were kept in the accounts of two banks before Mr. Shuaibu helped to transfer them to Mr. Oronsaye.

Individuals who benefitted from the string of payments, allegedly made on the eve of Mr. Oronsaye’s retirement as Head of Service, include Kate Chinwe Obiekwe, Ibrahim Abdulkarim and Mohammed Abdullahi Ahmed who were paid N56,612,585.00, N80,108,640.00 and N23,760.00 respectively.

The trio, who are officials of the OHCSF pension, received the “collective allowance” – allowances paid out to an officer of the OHCSF for distribution to other staff who are supposedly meant to be on a trip, contrary to Federal Government directives on e-payment.

Others who also benefitted from the payments include Innovative Solutions and Project Limited and Vivians Ebony Nigeria Enterprise.

The former is said to have a N63 million worth of contract with the Office of the Head of Service but its emergence as the preferred contractor is in breach of the procurement process since the contact for the biometric exercise was not advertised. Also, a Certificate of no-objection was not obtained by the office of the Head of Service from the Bureau of Public Procurement, BPP, although Mr. Oronsaye allegedly indicated in his statement before the EFCC that he made an informal request to the BPP about the process involved.

Apart from breaching the procurement process, the contract awarded to Innovative Solutions and Project Limited was also fraught with a series of irregular and inflated payments made to the company, according to the EFCC.

Robert Ikhaziboh, the Chief Executive of the company, admitted to EFCC investigators that he was instructed by one Osarenkhoe Afe, an IT consultant and nominee of Mr. Oronsaye as member of the Pension Reform Committee, to work with two companies – Upstrach Communication and Federick Hamilton Global Limited – with specific instructions on the amount to pay the companies whenever he received payment.

When questioned by the EFCC, Mr. Afe stated that Frederick Hamilton was paid N289.05 million for its contract, out of which he got N35 million and Mr. Oronsaye received N250 million through third parties. Mr. Afe stated that he was willing to make a refund.

Under questioning by the EFCC on December 7, PREMIUM TIMES learnt, Mr. Oronsaye claimed ignorance of some of the companies that had received bogus payments and had been traced back to him.

Mr. Oronsaye also claimed ignorance of Xangee Technologies, Fatidek Ventures and Obalano Enterprises and said he never approved any payment to them.

However, when provided with evidence of payment to these companies, Mr. Oronsaye became silent, sources at the commission said.
