U startd dis thread so no point arguing wit u, we hp it ll not follw oda theories.lol

I almost began to wonder if this thread was about to appear like it was for prospective NNPC Gidigbo Trainees.

Waoh!!! Nice one!

Guys nd Gals hoping against hope. Let's keep it up

I sincerely believe everyone reserves the right to say his piece whether right or wrong and moreso in a forum like this. All the so called tongue lashing of the Prof is just because he sided with the truth, which was that some people here misunderstood a certain statement and were calling for someone's head. Seriously speaking, for our own good, its not enough to sit back and claim English is not your mother tongue and therefore you're permitted to make blunders of the magnitude seen here. For a language you claim you passed through your primary, secondary and tertiary institutions with, it would be appalling if after half your life speaking it you still cant communicate with it. And you have a 2.1, or worse yet a 1st class!! I sincerely suggest you start reading up again, and brushing up your mastery of english. Even when you get the job it will still be necessary you're smooth. Most of us here claiming we did well in the interview, if you actually spoke the way you write here believe me you're going nowhere. They would happily score you low, because the competition is high. It will be a veritable avenue to weed off the excess, and you know I am right!! I went to a secondary school that has students from every state in the Federation, and the best of them at that. Some of our brothers back then from certain parts of the country couldnt make a sentence in english when they came there newly. Those that survived the JS3 weeding and got to SS3 left that school with a sound command of the language. Some even work for newspapers now. You too can humble yourselves and make such efforts. Not your mother tongue? Not an excuse.

U av spoken well bro!

@ QED, the fact dt there are blunders in one's post does nt mean one won't do well in writing n speakin compectitn. No 1 is perfect. Even after ur so-called excellent basic educatn, I expected ur criticism 2 b freed of blunders both in structure n punctuatns. Eg

...its
not enough to sit back and claim
English (is) not your mother
tongue and therefore you're
...
And you
have a 2.1(,) or worse yet a 1st
class(!!) I sincerely suggest you
start reading up again(,) and
brushing up your mastery of
(e)nglish...


U av ur excuses bt nt enof 2 justfy it.So dont criticise anyone
