RE: Talking Point Tonight: Disappointments - 10/10/2021, 8.30pm
This topic is nice. I have had some disappointments. The most painful one was under Npower. There was a competition set for volunteers across Nigeria. We continued to compete as a team until the quater final where the last 4 teams will compete for the prizes in Abuja. We were waiting for the invitation only to hear that the Government has created a new ministry and that the President's wife will be in Charge of Npower since it fell under the new ministry. The first thing she did was to cancel all programs, including that contest. That was how me and my guy lost the opportunity to compete for 1.2m then 2018. Actually, we were favorites to win it. How disappointed I was
Oh, it really a huge disappointment. But Sir, are you are you still dwelling on the feelings of the disappointment
No. We discontinued. But one good thing about Npower is that it gave me the opportunity to meet some great people. I and @samuel20 shared the same PPA in Npower. That was where we got to know each other. And today, he is a big part of my staff
Wow that's great. I hope to see you in person one day because you are a great person too
Wow!!! Disappointment brought people together and @samuel20 is a great guy and with the collaboration is nice
@benson6. Exactly. So that was a big positive side of the Npower story. They also did not give us a tablet PC which the first set received. I wish @samuel20 was here. His last 6 months salary in that program was not paid till date. He felt so disappointed then
Terrible but that is life for you sir and there is always a blessing in disguise Sir, take heart but 1.2m is not moi-moi oh
No be joke oo. And my condition was bad that time. I seriously needed the money because it was few months to the time the landlord gave us quit notice in my last office building. To know how bad it was, I stayed without office for 1 year and 6 months before Steemit rescued me. Hahaha
Steemit is a life saver and steem rescue me also this year and meeting you was wonderful
That's bad after putting all your efforts and planning what you would have used the money for.
Better days ahead boss
This is such a sad experience @focusnow I can only imagine how you received the news. Regardless, everything works for good unto those who love God.
