Career / Re: My Heart Felt Message To GRADUATES Teaching In Private Primary/secondary Schoo by Optionalx: 2:57pm On Jul 28, 2019 |
SirWhiteFish: I looked back at the beginning of this year, precisely 14th January 2019 when I started working at a private primary school. Three weeks later, I was told that I had to be taking two primary five students extra lessons after closing (3pm), and the pay was 1k each. With my monthly salary which was 13,000 added to the "1k" each makes 15 thousand.
You would think I earned 13k for three months abi! No I didn't. The first salary I got was the half of 13k. The woman just called the staff on the 28th of January and gave me 6.5k. I had no idea what was going on and I thought she was going to balance up at the beginning of February just like she said while addressing us but it was a lie. it was at the end of the term, the third month April, that I got to know I am being ripped off. She said she was going to pay 5000 naira at the end of the term as salary because school opened for just 10 days. It was the greatest shock of my life. A graduate, a grown up man like me, taking 5000 naira home!! I wanted to leave but I couldn't because I wouldn't be paid for the common entrance lesson and I had not gotten any other opportunities elsewhere.
Sometimes in early February, She called me that I would be handling primary 5 Common entrance lessons which is meant to hold every Saturday and at the end of the third term the money will be shared between Me, a staff that partners me and the proprietress. She said the money will be shared 60%(I and another man) to 40%(the proprietress). The formula was very unfair and strange to me. The sharing formula seemed very strange to me and I challenged it but she enforced it.
Fast forward to early this month, precisely 3rd of July, the proprietress started acting strange and insulting all the workers and all that. The following week she sent one of the oldest staff by to inquire what will be the staff reaction if they are not paid at the end if the term. The staff said they won't agree to such and some even threaten various actions. Fast forward to Thursday 25th of July, vacation day. the woman started up a plethora of complaints deliberately she said she was going to pay 4000 as July salary. The same thing she did at the end of second term. At the end she ended up not paying a dime. She didn't pay any of us. Not even the common entrance lesson which made me stay.
I cried and stayed inside throughout Friday. I had a deep thinking, with my academic background! Was it that I didn't know my worth? with all my struggles to be successful academically I am now slaving in one private school for a paltry sum of 15k, money wey I no fit cope with as an undergraduate! Money wey be say no reach my NYSC allawe! I really feel for graduates going through phases like this. I really feel for graduates teaching at private schools. I pray better days finds you and I soon. You didn’t mention whether the business was making money though - ( just on a moral ground) Nigeria don't have small claims court to handle this type of issues. Very easy! Think outside the box too... instead of just lamenting Good luck 1 Like |

Foreign Affairs / Re: Albinos In Tanzania Are Being Hunted For Their Limbs by Optionalx: 9:46pm On Jul 16, 2019 |
Amoxman: Families are said to be trading in their own loved ones in a bid for money and influence from some of the country’s most powerful people.
It is believed in the African country that albino body parts will bring a person wealth or luck, with people willing to pay as much as $3,000 to $4,000 for a limb, or as much as $75,000 for the whole body, the MailOnline reports.
As a result, people with albinism are often attacked by people who wish to chop off their limbs, leaving them mutilated, or in many cases, dead.
Albinism affects one in 1,400 people in Tanzania, which experts put down to incest in rural communities in the country.
It is a hereditary condition which causes the complete absence of pigmentation in the skin, hair and eyes.
Since records began, there have been 74 murders, with 59 people with albinism surviving attacks, while 16 graves have been robbed for body parts, however there are believed to be many more unrecorded. The most recent case recorded was four-year-old Pendo Emmanuelle Nundi, who was abducted from her home in December. Her father and uncle were both arrested in connection with her disappearance, however even with a reward of £1,130 offered up by police, she still hasn’t been found.
Mwigulu Matonange was only 10 when he was attacked by two men on his way home from school. The men chopped off his left arm, before disappearing into the jungle.
After the brutal attack, which took place in February 2014, he told IPP Media: ‘I was held down like a goat about to be slaughtered.’
In this case, the men were complete strangers to Mwiglulu, however there’s suspicion surrounding Pendo’s father after he took half-an-hour to report her abduction, despite there being neighbours around who could’ve helped as soon as she was taken.
According to a UN report, a 38-year-old woman was attacked by her husband and four other men while she was sleeping in February 2013 while their eight-year-old daughter looked on.
As reported by the MailOnline, Josephat Torner, who campaigns for albino rights, asked:
Now we can see the parents who are involved in planning the attacks. What kind of war are we fighting if parents and family do this? Who can we trust?
You do not know who is your enemy.
People with the albinism are being hunted and killed for our body parts. It is because people want to become rich.
We are still living in danger. It is because people, they have different ideas. Some people, they are thinking they should get our body parts and sell to different places.
The question is, why? Why now? And who is behind the killings?

There is no rationale behind Government funding of pilgrimage, Nigeria is a secular country, I think it's all political. You dey mind them...

I know you guys can't make your point without insult, it's in your DNA.
Dino that invaded arrest, assaulted police officers and turned to monkey. Same Dino that fought in the house of rep during Dimeji Bankole speakership is your role model.
The same Dino abused and assaulted a female senator is still your hero, well where you come from you people don't regard women.
Hypocrite the reason other Nigerians don't take you guys serious. It doesn’t take away from the facts as per what Dino said...
