NNPC recruiting after more than 5 years, the number of applications will be greater than the number of votes in the presidential elections ?

That's how most people miss out on career lifting opportunities. You ask God to give you the perfect job, but NNPC opens job portal you say it's far-fetched and for only those "with legs" or connection.

How can God lift you when you're having this incredulous gasp already.

Imagine if NNPC was sold to friends that are free to be enriched, will there have been recruitment now or retrenchment?

Thank you Nigerians for rejecting them and reaffirming PMB.

Next Level is here already https://t.co/27DBPmILyQ

For NNPC to post that, means they’ve already gotten their candidates. It’s just so they can say “don’t say we didn’t tell you”

The people who will get NNPC employment are not applying through the online portal. If you know, you know.
