Just in case anyone is still foolish enough to accept a job in this country please take note of the following story. Keep in mind that not all agenies are like this one & many are well informed. But when it comes to Nigeria YOU are the one that must know what you are getting into.
I was give a proposition to be a back to back relief with a friend of mine. We were assured that it was in a secure & safe place & well organized. My friend has just returned form what was discribed a secure safe position as a mud eng offshore. After one week the rig next to his was raided & men taken as hostages. He was lucky for the next 2 weeks but there were numerous incidents including him being blackmailed by the senior local hand on the rig. On his trip home he was delayed in town & sent to a very questionable hotel where one expat man had just been killed & 3 wounded during a robbery attempt. He is still waiting to receive his salary which also looks like it may be a long drawn out problem.
I refused to go & he will not be returning for any reason.
Another close friend was shot dead in May of last year as he was traveling in a company car to his office. NO money is worth your life & I am aggivated with the constant job offers for this deadly spot.
Later, Steve
