Jayveed:
Please I want to know if FIRS pays upfront?
I was among the people that went for the just concluded induction.
We asked about this question but they refused to answer.
So I'm asking if anyone has any idea here.
Thank you.

And you are already an firs staff member fa. Ask your senior colleagues in the office, that’s ur best bet. Meanwhile congratulations sir.

Jaguarpetter:


Thank you, CBN has one policy, if anyone reports that you collected money, either borrow or loan with proof and you defaulted they can sack you for that. That is why a man with 3m cash will prefer to borrow a CBN staff who is looking for 3m than someone else who's only looking for 1m.

Funny enough same policy applies in firs too, anybody can come and doubt. And then it is also an offense to lend someone money with interest too as a staff if it escalates ur job is on the line.

Moh99:


Don't you see that I Just said "ok"

Yea bro, best.

Emir01:


😂 😂 loan is not a curse my brother. As a civil servant, loan is an opportunity that other people want to have access to. If you're not working nobody will loan you a kobo. No matter where you work you need loan on certain things except you don't think big even Dangote dey hustle for loan

I hope u know there’s difference between taking loans to SURVIVE and taking a loan for investment. Moh99 is right when he said if u know where u are coming from u don’t need loans to SURVIVE as a member of firs staff. Emphasis on survival sir.

AmiableMosquito:
It's counter productive trying to educate people who have never worked in the public service or even worked anywhere before. And it is easy to identify them Mohisah. Why are you wasting your energy?
People not in the system will argue your salary with you as if they are the ones paying your salary.

At least 50% of public servants live on loans (including their almighty FIRS, NIMASA and even NUPRC). People take loans for different reasons; augment cost of living, property/automobile purchase, sponsoring wards abroad, financing a new business etc. Why do you think there are more finance companies springing up by the minute? You think they are there to service only Grade C and D federal employees?

People's lifestyle are determined by their level of income and a lot of us like to live a little bit beyond our means. Coupled with the current devaluation of our currency and rising inflation/cost of living, even 500k monthly is not enough income for anyone to boast they are not on loan.

While a National Gallery of Art staff may be managing public transport, a typical FIRS staff might think that it is unbefitting to be jumping public transport and will therefore take a car loan just to fit in to the lifestyle that supposedly "befits" a FIRS staff. An unemployed person will see the FIRS staff and presume they are doing far better.

A NIPOST staff may typically live on loan to survive the rising cost of living and other sundry expenses. A NUPRC staff may take loans to finance expensive private school tuition fee (that befits their wards), make down payment for several properties, start a lucrative business, etc. Because sometimes, the fact that you are well paid does not mean that you have cash to finance all your wants at the same time. The lifestyle/living cost of an NNPC staff will definitely differ from that of someone with NTA. The higher your income, the bigger your needs/wants/responsibilities.

In summary, loans are not a yardstick to determine the welfare structure of any organisation. However, FIRS staff are also not earning well enough to claim that a lot of their staff are not on loans. NIA pays far better than FIRS and I know a staff who is on loan.

Again, Mohisah, don't waste your energy trying to educate people who don't know how the system works. What percentage of FIRS staff can afford to rent a 2 bedroom in Guzape?

#smiles# The young man once said here that he’s been enjoying firs money for more than 10yrs implying he’s a staff, later said he prefers contract and will never work for the govt for salary and then he gives job to people in CBN and he drinks tea with Zack, Tinubu, BUHARI and any big name u can think of. I believe it’s based on all these things u have heard from him that u assume he’s in the system and right while every other person with a different opinion is unemployed and doesn’t have any insider in their family. I INSIST ON MY INITIAL SUBMISSION THAT HE DOESN’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FIRS and if u want to stake ur money on this he claimed to be a northernan while abusing everybody from the south here, later implied he’s from kogi state and at a point stated categorically that he was from Cameroun, look well before u leap.

Mohisah:
All thanks to Zach.. 65% of staff were living on Cooperative loans to live well.

‘65% of firs staff were living on cooperative loans’……u never tire for this kind thing wen u de talk till today?

Success1930:


Smile.... As a Mathematician...In the real sense,
this is how it supposed to be calculated...But, it will be calculated according to levels , grades and current salary.

We will see the adjustment soon. It will favour those workers receiving small salary more. God no go shame us

That formula has a shortcoming because if
New salary= old salary*1.33
And u were earning 52632 on lelev 6, your new salary will be 52632*1.33=70000.
So na u and the least worker in ur office go de collect the same salary now

Success1930:


Smile.... As a Mathematician....God no go shame us

Amen sir 🙏

Success1930:
How to calculate the new minimum wage

E.g If you're receiving N60k

To calculate the new salary based on the new minimum wage increase:

1. Find the percentage increase in the minimum wage:
(New minimum wage - Old minimum wage) / Old minimum wage = (N70,000 - N30,000) / N30,000 = 133.33% (or 1.3333 as a decimal)

2. Apply the percentage increase to your current salary:
Current salary x Percentage increase = N60,000 x 1.3333 = N80,000

Since your current salary (N60,000) is higher than the old minimum wage (N30,000), your new salary will be higher than the new minimum wage (N70,000). Therefore, your new salary would be N80,000.

However, if your current salary was below the old minimum wage, your new salary would be the new minimum wage (N70,000).

It doesn't work that way sir, be patient the govt will soon tell u the consequential adjustments based on GRADE LEVEL

Orlando22:

Submit at REA and expect from them next recruitment possibly next year early coz they recruit regularly Dy need more staff

If he submits and they call him this year you can as well go to court.

Orlando22:

I don't submit anything so Bleep off... do you even have Sense like this

I forgive u for the insult. Meanwhile if u didn't submit then u are been so unfair to yourself, why worry this hard about something that doesn't concern u. Honestly you deserve some rest, plz take some rest.

Orlando22:

That's true let's make peace here please and understand the reality it's the situation of Nigeria that's why u know how our people normally do that alone can discourage people that want to apply for a job
Fire service announce yesterday that they will conclude their recruitment by August they already have their list the most painful thing is that they will shortlist people that doesn't have godfather to write CBT exam and shortlist them to travel on a long distance for physical screening after that they will call their people for appointment letter which Dy did last year recruitment into immigration and civil defence

Any need for peace?
Your fear is valid, some of the people submitting CV now have a higher connection than you, they might remove ur name and replace it with theirs
But then instead of discouraging them just pray and be in touch with ur own connect, what's gonna be gonna be.

Newcastle2023:
It's really unfortunate to see the brazing lopsidedness in the FG appointments in favour of the South West. Buhari did same and Tinubu is doing even worse.

APC seems to be on a mission to destroy Nigeria completely. Zero sense of managing national diversity and cohesion.

Nigerian elites have failed this country and I hope the Nigerian youths won't choose to be docile, irresponsible and foolish.

If the needful is not done now, there won't be Nigeria left for our children and grandchildren.

Thanks 2u for identifying the problem my brother but you have hidden your proffered solution. what's "the needful" @ bold and what is the role of the Nigerian youth in the needful. Maybe it can start with the youths here.

Lagos state IRS is sharing apl.
Confirmed!!!

You have done well sir, thank u.

Plz who's got info on agencies under the ministry of finance currently replacing?

kaybeey10:
[Good morning house. Pls I need everybody kind assistance with valid information. Pls does anybody knows the salary structure for NASRDA

If u are been offered for free congratulations and if u are paying for the job just be careful, I heard they didn't get all necessary approval for that replacement and there is a possibility it might backfire. So if u are paying pray well while taking d risk, Good luck sir.

Flowcool:


Bro nothing dey FIRS.
What's here now, is different from what people were all hyping about.

Look for a better place, it's just all hyping.
Good night

Have you resigned already sir?

Success1930:

Do they really need certificate of compliance to release shortlist for cbt exams/physical screening? This should come after final list from the recruitment processes is ready before APL issuance unless of course if they are going from application directly to documentation/APL. I might be wrong, u can educate us if u have a different idea.

oluwjuwonlo:

Yahaya79:
I saw update on the group of CDCFIB regarding news be it ffs but don't if it is genuine or not

It's on their official page so it's genuine

Olarewajuuu:
This is not true my brother, but I'm not in any shoe to defend my self here, the truth shall prevail, and the person who knows the A to Z of this matter is here, I have nothing to say than to apologize, check your WhatsApp, I've sent you my conversation with the connect and check it out please... You'll be paid soon, he caused all these as I didn't spend a dime from your money. Apologies please..

with due respect sir, @ Sherylbaky called u out on 1st January this year for collecting her money April last year with the promise of giving her a job latest June ending last year but u didn't deliver and didn't refund her money till she called u out on January 1st. My honest question is IF U COLLECTED MONEY FROM @SHERYLBAKY IN APRIL LAST YEAR AND UR CONNECT FAILED TO DELIVER IN JUNE AS PROMISED, WHY DID U STILL COLLECT MONEY FROM @MOHAYAKS IN SEPTEMBER TO GIVE HIM A JOB THROUGH THE SAME CONNECT KNOWING FULLY WELL THAT YOUR CONNECT IS NO LONGER CONNECTED.

KingClown:


lmao, there are always he goats that will do otherwise.
I don drop my 2 cents, do whatever you want with my information.
End

And u are now becoming insultive with the word "he-goats" without provocation.

KingClown:


safety engineering is just a department or division in fire service.
you think there are not other engineering roles in every agency ?
we have
-system engineers
-environmental engineers
-civil engineers
-every agency always has occupational health and safety and emergency response team.
I'm even very sure immigration will have IT specialists.
[b]I will rather be staff in NLNG with my engineering degree than one yeye safety engineer for fire service [/b]and when I reach abroad I go do safety course get job.

My point is follow where money dey as he dey hot.
every agency has engineers, ants, auditors, supply chain, safety etc. but na salary and allowance be koko.

abeg make nobody quote me
END

1. You quoted someone and said nobody should quote u
2. You compared NLNG to fire service @bold which is totally out of the topic of discussion
3. When u talk about an organization having different departments u didn't reference "CORE MANDATE" as it affects career progression. And when u said every organization has occupational health and safety and emergency response team, u unknowingly ed the quote u are opposing by stressing on the marketability of the experience that comes from fire service.
You shouldn't even have quoted me in the 1st place without knowing the actual topic of discussion sir.

Valme1010:
Bros if you don't know firemen that have made it ,that might be your reasons , even opportunities abroad with the right professional certificate ,fire fighter are been looked for abroad,places like Australia and co ,with the right professional certificate ,do you know how much a fire fighter attached to a oil firm is paid apart from his or her salary ,let God just give you the work wey him won use make you hammer,I have seen a poor immigration officer and I have seen a very wealthy fire man on the same rank ,who fire arm help,even Nigeria hunter dey use fire arm, even as an officer ,you cannot hold fire arm without g it in officially ,you can work your entire career without holding fire arm...God will help us all bro .

Most people here have not heard about "safety engineering" and how lucrative it is here and especially abroad. Only a myopic engineering or science graduate will pick immigration over fire service because he or she heard there is bribe in immigration service. Fact is fire service has the best career prospect of all the agencies under interior for those with science background.

Heeyah. Mr President is a scam, he fake his name, date of birth, job history, school history, yen yen yen. Yet he is the legal president we have today. The same thing they said about Civil Defense back then until it became what it is today. Oga, How market

Don't let us get emotional about this sir. I suggest u take down this quote, I will come back and edit my mention unless of course u have evidence to prove that "Mr President is a scam, he faked his name, date of birth, job history, school history, yen yen yen".
Na only u sabi that one my hand no de am.

Iyen flies and those that sees government work as do or die affair.

The government declared an organization and it's activities ILLEGAL, arrested the head of the organization for job scam awaiting prosecution and warned her citizens to be vigilant and not have anything to do with the organization and your only reaction was to tell us that WE SHOULD URGE THE GOVT TO LEGALIZE THAT ORGANIZATION AND STOP SITTING ON THE FENCE meaning u are still ready to work with/for the organization in question as a govt agency and yet u don't think u are acting like govt work is do or die affair.
*sir the govt is not sitting on the fence like u said earlier, the govt said your natcom is illegal
*I had love to explain the same pdf document u shared the link to here but I won't because u have made up ur mind already, but note that your natcom is not the same as the natcom the PDF is talking about, if u can't see that then it's ur problem with comprehension.
*I'm only reacting to ur comment coz of the people u might deceive here not necessarily for ur own sake coz only u know what u want to achieve.
*If e sure u, go and protest in Abuja with a placard in front of NCCSALW office reading "legalize Natcom now, stop sitting on the fence". Just then the government will explain better to u in person.

berbs:


Help us to tell NCCSALW to establish the real NATCOM and stop sitting on the fence. At least the document is on their website.

https://nccsalw.gov.ng/2022/05/27/overview-of-the-national-centre-for-the-control-of-small-arms-and-light-weapons

Ensure you read it. Thanks.

It's now confirmed that no matter how hard u try, some flies will still follow the corpse to the grave.

Mohisah:
Exact tin i was tryin to say. Dat 150-200k der are seeing is per annum. 9ja to pay 150k+ as salary 😂, this means Fuel go skyrocket 3000 /L, 1hr flight go entr 500k+ etc. If dat big figure is real, Labor for no use 1sec to finalize d meetin since past month. Who dare oppose 150k+ salary in a month? Nobody! May God help us with betterment in everything we hope to achieve

u should stop thinking is per annum sir. 150k-200k per annum means #12500-#16666 per month. The current minimum wage is #30000 per month. Obviously they are not meeting to reduce the minimum wage from 30k to 12.5-16.6k. Greetings brotherly.
