A new thread for NNPC Hopefuls

[birdzflyskyhigh]

@bb1 many of us understand how fcc works. Truth be told,about this your analyses,you were not called perhaps because you didn't do too well as regard your state only. What difference does it make? Are you against the fcc's rule...that's not healthy. We have come a long way,just because you weren't favoured shouldn't mean we going all the way back. Fcc is the right and sure thing for a country like Nigeria. It's like you don't understand most of the problems we have in this country has to do with phrases like tribe,minority et al. Don't say those things pls.

The Federal Executive Council (FEC) has approved the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) for onward transmission to the National Assembly.
Briefing State House correspondents at the end of its weekly council meeting, the minister of petroleum resources, Mrs. Deziani Allison-Madueke said the new PIB which will ensure the independence of theregulators in the oil and gas sector as well as unbundle the NNPC, will yield high return on investments for Nigerians.
“The new PIB is going to make the oil industry more competitive and accountable. It proposes revolutionary changes in the industry,” said the minister
She said that the fiscal frameworks which delayed the bill in the past have been reworked and that when passed by the National Assembly, the country will remainan interesting investment destination for oil and gas investors.
FEC also directed the ministers of agriculture and finance to reduce the import duty rate for cassava enhancing enzymes from 10 to 0percent as well as come up with a development fund that will support the valuechain in the production of bread in an effort to promote cassava farming in the country as well as reduce the country’s dependency on importation of wheat.
Budget Office of the ministry of finance will manage the fund meant for small scale millers who may need additional support.

@BB1: Please at this point it's not good for you to be saying Character Comission is what is dragging us backward or to conclude that the selection was not base on merit becouse you were not selected, I think the best thing is to congratulates those that made it and keep on praying as you said another batch will follow.. For me I was not selected and I thank God for everything cos some has not even make it to the interview stage not becouse they are not good or we were better than them and whether the selection was base on merit or not that one is not my concern as no amount of yarning that will make one get his letter but I believe more than 50percent is base on merit don't tell me its 80percent merit cos i know what i see.. But atleast going by the way this country is now we should commend NNPC for the 50percent merit its a welcoming development. For those of you that were called, Please accept my hearty congratulations once again May almighty Allah bless your current job. As per the romour concerning the new batch i did not buy the idea though i will b very happy if it turns out to be true but any way sha God is in control with him everything is possible. I have sign out of this thread bye bye my people.

@bb1, dis Federal Character thing might be injurious to our national development but its what we need as a nation lookin at our peculiarities, so coming out in a puBlic forum such as this and venting ur frustration over it is not helpful and cud only tag U as being malicious, dats just my opinion tho...
I must reiterate dat more people will called from feelers I got, let's jus hope and pray its true.... Salam

I really smiled and remembered vin20 when I heard the news of PIB passage.
To say the truth,I am stl expecting my letter till now.I might be wrong only if God say I am wrong.
For those that has theirs,I say congratulations,it is not easy.I know first hand some things about NNPC but I am not connected there.
If u are in lagos,you will heave a sigh of relief when you spend your one week in Abuja.
They will announce to you all you are to be paid...ranging from first 28 days hotel allowance...to part of your housing for the remaining part of the year...to tea and security allowance,etc.
This you will get b4 doing any work. You are indeed blessed(I believe some will say itz not the ultimate which is true).But I think making heaven is the only ultimate thing.
I prayed for the process to be concluded and merit-based,so I don't hv any moral right to question the credibility of those selected.I can only be happy for them while waiting for my glory which must come in Jesus name...AMEN!
We hv come a long way in this struggle.........
I can recall one 1st class guy that was so bitter because he was not even shortlisted for the test(mine came 23rd of March b4 the 26th March). I took time to talk to him and recounted my own experiences on recruitments like this,especially those handled by Phillips Consulting.
We wrote the test,JA(our dear friend) was somewhere with the Lord when members started calling him that the results is out. When I noticed that JA may not have been called for interview,I started praying for him and one of my colleagues in the office. But my colleague was later called and we know about JA.
By this time I wasn't called for the interview,but had strong convictions that it will come,and it came(July 1st....the 1st day of the month I declared one-month fasting).

I have more stories to tell but I just want to tell us that God is not a liar.Even if at the end you do not make it,be rest assured it is not because you are not good,but something better is in the offing(if you are a child of God).

Joining NNPC at this time is equally good as the coy is transforming to a responsible O&G coy and so the frustration of working in a public service will soon be phased out and also.......better pay package expected.
Congrats and let us still wait and trust in God for our miracles.

Oga,how do u know?

The Federal character (FC) issue is a shortcut to solving a problem that is eating away at the country.

We all know that we are not all equal, however, there are things that each an every one of us excel at over the other. FC tries to equalise everybody in Nigeria and that is why we are in the mess we are in today starting from 1914.

This issue has pervaded the whole sphere of human endeavor in this country. Let me ask, if FC was that important to our survival, why hasn't the private sector embraced it yet. How many Banks use FC while recruiting?

Remember Jamb. I, with a score of 230, was almost not admitted into school whereas a student who later became my friend entered on MERIT was admitted with a score of 203. Infact most students that were admitted that way never told anyone their Jamb scores because of the fear of been ridiculed.

Affirmative action (FC/ Quota system) has never solved the underlying societal problems of a Nation. It has not empowered the Black Zimbabweans farmers nor reduced Almajiri in the North nor helped black South Africans. I am not saying that it does not have its advantages, however, the feeling I get is that we are not looking to solving our problems head-on but are still employing shortcut.

To round up my treatise , One of the fields of endeavour that we have excelled in as a nation is football/other sports. I am sure nobody in Nigeria want to hear FC in football. Till date, I do not know the state of origin of our Atlanta 96 football squad and do not care. Infact, if 11 Almaijiri wins us the world cup, I will personally lead them to Aso Rock. If we achieved success in Football without focusing on FC, are we saying we cannot transfer same to other aspects of our lives.

Lastly, If PDP had chosen Donald Duke based on his performance rather than Goodluck based on FC, our situation as a Nation will probably be different today.
