Go to National Population Commission(NPC) website https://attestation.nationalpopulation.gov.ng/welcome using your NIN to get attestation letter. It's just 3k for paid via paystack. You get it within 10mins using your NIN. Without NIN, it's very difficult. This is a sample and I believe it can suffice. Please note that this attestation letter is only for those born before the birth registration enactment of 1992. It's a birth certificate for those born after the act of 1992, still on the site. Good luck

Please one more question. Do I need to get it signed and stamped at the Nigerian embassy or do you think it will be accepted, since I just printed it from my computer? Thank you

Thank you so much!

I have gotten the attestation letter. I will send it to USCIS asap!

RFE Issued: Birth Certificate

Folks, please I need help here. I just received an RFE from USCIS regarding my 485 AOS application. They need an acceptable birth certificate document. I submitted a declaration of age with my application, but that document seems unacceptable. Please how do I get an acceptable birth certificate? Thank you guys!

I am tired of all these high supply/low demand analysis. Please let this temporary market forces play out. Focus on your goal and not on what you cannot control.

Producing countries and consuming countries of hydrocarbons would resolve their issues.

What you can control, I believe,

Is to

1. Diversify your investment (if you have any). As long as you live in Nigeria, whether you earn in NGN or FX does not matter... the prices of goods will always catch up with you.

So, increase your absolute earning power...remove your disposable savings from the bank..and put them to work..and grow

2. Since Naira might, emphasis on might, get devalued further over the coming months...save in a more stable currency.....the war is between Saudi/Russia/USA

3. Learn more skills, a post-corona world will throw open huge opportunities..in waste management/public health/education/agriculture..identify something now..and learn

4. If all else fails, prepare to JAPA

Flowwolf09, apologies for quoting you..

Feex:
Guys, abeg I am sorry. The lashing is too much and unexpected.

I wish everyone the very best. Wish GTs and EHs success.

I digress: Just to contribute on the ongoing debate

The oil price drop is caused by two factors - oversupply by Saudi is the highest driver (like 70% of the cause) followed by low demand due to the pandemic. Saudi has promised to push in more barrels in April so expect even lower prices in April. The next OPEC+ meeting is not likely to hold anytime soon at least until June. So expect sustained low prices till at least June. CNN has also reported the pandemic may last for up to a year. Hopefully mankind will discover a vaccine before then. So oil prices is not gonna rise in weeks.

Even without oversupply, oil prices wouldn't have gone above the 40s due to the pandemic.


Also, the cost of producing oil in Nigeria is one of the very highest in the world, between $25 and $35 depending on the area. Whoever said $15 is not familiar with the Nigerian oil industry. Nigeria is currently producing literally at a loss. Also that we are not able to sell our crude as we are outpriced in the international market by lower cost producers like Saudi and Russia. So Nigeria isn't making any money right now. Worse still, the ECA is almost empty. Hard times ahead.

Mele kyari said that. Bros, try and read more before you argue.

Employment letters have started rolling out . Has anyone gotten theirs ?

Yes, people have gotten.

Who is back here with me?

All thanks to the most high!

Alhamdulillah!

scobyy2007:
Someone I know updated me this afternoon. Below is what I was told;

1. The lists have been ready two months ago
2. The selection was reasonably on merit
3. Calls will start rolling out hopefully next week.

Thank you

This night when you are about to sleep, take a deep breath and say to yourself:

"At least I met new friends, the travelling was exciting, and it was a hell of a phase. It's time to refocus on other jobs, this one is over".

Unfollow this thread, cut communication with anything that will remind you of nnpc for some time, and go do other things - refresh your linkedin profile, revisit myjobmag and start applying, visit udacity and start learning that python, or resume application for the MSc in USA, or even start the Canadian/Australian express entry application.

One of two things will happen - You will start getting engrossed in something much more useful, and better for your life. OR NNPC will wake up after you've forgotten about them - what a wonderful surprise!



This is me talking to myself

7 weeks gone in 2020. Cheers to me achieving something in 45 weeks

Peace out.

Wow, nice work there. Do you tint glasses too? Sunlight is coming in too much at home. We need to put a film that will prevent heat from coming in. Can you do that?

DarkShades:


Nothing deceptive about what he said.

Sarcasm bruh...

Dear All,

Until there is an official message from NNPC that you should send money to a particular , you should not refund anything yet.

There are 3 scenarios,

1. The people in charge of the payment actually committed an error, and are trying to get refunds to clear the balance.

2. There is a money laundering scheme ongoing at NNPC using the TF payment as cover.

3. Some people successfully hacked the database of phone numbers of people that came for interview (list of papers actually), and are trying to scam candidates (when they heard of the error).

.....

Scenario 1.
Truthful Error from NNPC

By the act of the corporation, it is unethical and absolutely not allowed for any staff/contractor to receive any money to a personal . It is an offence that can lead to imprisonment.

Payment of TF is not a thing done by one Lazarus, or King, there are teams in charge. If they need to ask people to refund, they will use official channel of communication- Emails, SMS (without grammatical blunders), or use banks to place lien on defaulting s.

So, you should not send anything yet.

Scenario 2
Money Laundering at NNPC

One of the teams in charge of making payments discovered a loophole and decide to cash in on it. Here is how money is laundered. Send a bulk payment, say like 100m, to several s in smaller amounts (to by regulatory filters), then send a bulk message to the people to pay to a private .

This might be from some people inside NNPC.

You should never reply to this request. You might be arrested in the future, if this is discovered by NNPC regulatory.

3. Scenario 3
Database Hack

Some people heard that there are errors in the payment, that some applicants are getting twice and thrice. They quickly hacked into the list of phone numbers. Created an with the name seen in earlier payments, send a bulk message for people to refund. (Messages from non professional scammers are usually full of errors, like the one you received).

The scammers might actually be insiders in NNPC. You should not respond to the message, be smart and intelligent.


summary
Until there is an official clarification from NNPC saying that - this is the actual amount you are entitled to (do you know?), and that you have been overpaid, you should not respond to the fraudulent messages in circulation.

Regards,

Geektrovert.

ElZackzacky2019:
May that lawyer succeed. He's fighting a right cause - justice and peace. Ageism is a crime against humanity. If a 75 year old man is not too old to become a Nigeria's president then a 30 year old and above should not be considered overaged for a job.

We grow at our own pace. Not everybody graduates at 24-25 years. Poverty, strike actions and other factors can be responsible for this. For the GT applicants that are against Lawyer Olajengbesi, don't be selfish. Someone above 30 years is still strong and young. They can also work. That energy they are preventing them to use profitably due to ageism may be diverted into crimes. And everyone will be a victim of ageism in the long run.

So what age should nnpc set?

30yrs? 40yrs? 50yrs?

Or it should be open to everyone..even graduates of 110yrs..

Do you consider that Compulsory retirement in service is at 65yrs?
Or nnpc will spend huge amount to train "graduates"? Which must be armotized..?

Should they employ graduates of 64yrs?
....

There are cadres in this same recruitment. GT and EH. 28yrs and 40yrs I guess? Entry level into federal service has an age limit, have you checked?

Why is the lawyer not challenging EH?

I'm just pointing out some weakness in the case

Law and Logic goes together. A firm will do what is best for its interests.

PS: Do you realize that 28yrs is not an arbitrary number? There was a statistical survey/research done by the FG/NNPC.

Do you consider that 90% of all Nigerian Graduates over the last 20yrs fall within 28yrs and below? Fact.

So how is majority stopped from applying?

He who comes to equity must come with clean hands...

As an honorable local man, I must contribute my opinion to the raging war on the thread, because there is no neutral person in war....you are either for or against.

When we argue, we are trying to make the other party see our point of view. In this light, we expound, denounce, give examples in order to convince the other party. ARGUMENTS ARE NOT FIGHTS.

When we abuse the person we are trying to convince, when we make snide remarks, when we fall into argumentum ad hominem , heaven will fall before the other person agrees with us.

We don't need to abuse to our points. Repeat. We don't need to abuse to our points.

If at the end, the other person does not agree, then we can as well agree to disagree.

.........

Gbriels trying to correct Jarus, Larride, bobowaja and others trying to correct Gbriels... if everyone has been a little bit softer, a little bit more courteous, a little less of abuses and curses... we would have all engaged the other effectively.

That's my own 2 kobo.

Have an awesome day y'all

geektrovert:


My concern is why there seem to be few people left from each day's payment - Some here on Nairaland are sure they wrote their details correctly. Also, why are the dates haphazard, 4th - 3rd - 11th - 8th - 5th, etc? Anyway, waiting for July 1st payment.

So July 1st Payment is here. As well as July 8, 10 and others.

I have received my payment, but I still have no answer to my question on why few people are left without payment with each set of disbursement.

Looking forward to clarification.

One takeaway for me from this Easymoneysnip and C12112,

In my future political career, I will learn to speak with cold confidence and stick to it. Whether it is a fact or it is balderdash.

Sooner or later, I'll have massive following.

Well, as the distinguished history keeper of this great association, its my duty to present to us all in this grand event, the history of this thread, and subsequently the prestigious association of local men and women (AOLMAW) OF NNPC.

The thread was created by one of our very own @dmainman on Wednesday, the 13th of march 2019 at exactly 2:39pm. In turned out one of the most decorated government owned company had published an advert for vacancies in its various subsidiaries..

....


It is worthy to note that this period was crucial to the formation of the prestigious association of local men and women as it brought pioneers of the association into limelight, notable amongst these great men and women are:

Sir jarus, mosgoon, enireqx, teaser4, beeam, chasteguy, macgyver1, gbyms, csrockefeller, gbriels, mathology, sempumpingson woman, danxplore, mosphy4, klassd, 22general,larride, bodylicious, stevie55, benflash, enrypech, tejiri44, C1212, jobseeker, cybersecfeeak, swargu, realisticj, greatken, sandieeee, emmyteetosin, dorado, darella, geektrovert, sibabe and the thespark, souljar etc, special mention to Xfire, and my humble self, number5.

.....

At some point, other notable persons ed the race and added soured sauce (ladyjane, ladyheaven, ademmy, cliffwood, tonyhopkins, easymoneysniper, timilehinpeter, etc)

...


Yours faithfully, i remain the history keeper of the prestigious ASSOCIATION OF LOCAL MEN AND WOMEN (AOLMAW)

Whether APL drops tomorrow or not, we remain family here.

.......

We have shared many laughters, banters, argument and roughplay .

We have fought, teased each other, abused each other, but at the end of every day, we still find a way to remain united.

United. As fellows, as brothers and sisters on the divine journey to the towers. We are family.

Moosgoon vs DanXplore
Teaser4 vs Kevlala
Beeam, Benflash, sempumping, teaser4, klassd, jarus, enireqx20, theSpark, macgyver1, souljar and every other honourable member too important to be named.. I hope we meet sometimes in the future..

Goodwill message from Mr theSpark, BSc, MSc, F-AoLMAW (F is for Fellow):

Dear Local Men and Women,

I salute you on this auspicious occasion. I must congratulate you all on your patience. I believe we are on the verge of greatness hence this World Press Briefing. I urge you all to pay rapt attention to the speakers and tap from their wealth of experience. I must warn my prospective colleagues that this is strictly a professional engagement hence they must resist the temptation to engage in philandering and related vices. I wish us all happy crossover congress.

Thank you and God bless you all.

Lol, funny like always. I you, theSpark.

That fun thread few years ago, with 2el, haliluck, xcoozee, zeeenas, kingjb etc..

Slammmmmmmm:




LMAO����
I swear we are all mad.
Make we just dy cruise ourselves dy go sha, Shebi all of us want to be forming woke nii as regards the APL matter. Let's keep it up���

@Enntay He who pays the piper...

Iyajelili:


I don't think anything would happen until October.

Even if this is true, I think I align with the people giving us dates here.

If you analyse the trend, you will notice a certain calm after someone drops a date (whether true or false).

Let people keep giving us dates, from july ending, to 1st week of August, to 3rd week of August, to September 9/10. It's all good. . Having something to hold on to, is better than nothing. #DamageControl

Enrypech:


Yep. The confusion you have about the seemingly haphazard payment stems from the singular fact that you haven't been paid.

When alert visits you. That confusion will lose it's ability to can. i. e, The spirit of confusion will be confused.

Lol even though I'm paid, unless I finally find myself in a department in NNPC HQ like /finance /statistics...I might never have the clear picture. #WeMove sha...

Enrypech:


No wonder.

Local man's curiosity is satisfied

Please school me local man ,

Is there a connection between my confusion about the seemingly haphazard payment and the fact that I've not been paid...?

Rexmy:
Well my thought on this... Perhaps, there is a payment quota for each week and the number of candidates for selected dates per payment week exceeds the weekly quota, thereby resulting to a random extrication of the excess candidates with an intention to pay them last i.e. when the number must have accumulated to or close to the size of the weekly payment quota.

Maybe, maybe not.

I guess it will become demystified with time...
