I Smh for Nigeria

They will organize a debate competition and the winner goes home with #100,000
They will organize something and ask young lads to come and dance or sing and the winner goes home with #10,000,000

Is Nigeria system really encouraging education??

Skills related to entertainment sell well. E.g. Keshi takes 5million per month while a profesor takes about 500k per month. D-banj and co earn more, Messi , Ronaldo, Hazard, Rooney, Tiger wood and even our JJ Okocha who returned to write a GCE did earn more.

It all depends on the interest of the people and the sponsors. People like music more and thats why D-banj and others are ambassadors of Glo but no academician. Most glo staff doing the brain work dont even earn what the ambassadors earn.

THE TRUTH IS THAT THERE ARE SO MANY MUSICIANS WHO DONT GET TO THE TOP, SO MANY FOOTBALLERS WHO MAY NEVER GO BEYOND DIVISION 2. Its a world of competition. Pray for light so your skill can sell like that of facebook owner, Bill gate, nairaland owner Seun Osewa and others.

Let's be realistic here on a normal day which of these shows will get ur attention on TV, a live debate or live Beauty pageant,...and besides most beauty pageants goes beyond showing up with a pretty face, u are asked tactical questions, asked to dance etc...so the beauty queen herself is brilliant in her own way...besides debate get levels,...SOME PEOPLE ARE PRETTY, SOME ARE INTELLIGENT BUT ONLY A FEW PEOPLE GOT BEAUTY WITH BRAINS...so make una free the fine girl jor

But the intelligent girl with laptop will see this opportunity as a key to read, browse , write down ideas that will fetch her millions if she works harder

No. I think both awarded should get cars as prizes. If the Wiz babe is as smart as we imagine, she would know to get a laptop even if she has to sell the car for it. On a lighter note though, na all these parole make me no bother to dey train sense again

Abegi! For me to think like this is mediocre because if the intelligent is truly intelligent, if given a car, she will sell it and buy a land as well as the laptop you claimed will give her the opportunity to read more. Be that as it may, what do we make of ultimate search, BBA etc rewarding with millions while winners of quiz competitions are given a meagre amount? Don't get it twisted! The fact is that our "leaders" are not celebrating education in anyway.

....how many of us here will tune in to watch a live debate programme instead of beauty pageant? Sponsors ll follow where people choose to go.

Bulls-it angry
When will we start telling ourselves the truth. You, even you, aboyaji, will prefer a car to the laptop.
This is a simple case of society gone bad. Hoha! We reward s3xuality more than brains. Don't spin it or embellish it one way or the other. Why not give the brilliant girl a car to help her with transportation to school, library, laboratory, book fairs, exam centers etc. a car will make her life easier and more comfy and thereby enable better academic results. If she likes a laptop so badly, if in the unlikely event she doesn't have one already, he has the brains and the comfy car to think put a way of getting one.

Nnaa make una leave this matter. This world values the naked girl more than the brainy independent woman. It's not just Unilag, it's the whole damned world.

Although, I dnt go with such idea, but one of d reason might be, because of the money used to buy the form, dat of d beauty pageant will b more higher dan d debate, if not FOR FREE self.

In our own little way, let's do our best to change things in this country. Let's always stand up for what is right. Let's always pray for Nigeria. Let's always pray for more righteous people in Nigeria politics because if u organize an election and armed robbers are to vote, I don't think they will vote a policeman.

†Nigeria will be better

First of all, this whole story is fake because I know the Unilag I went to, they will NEVER give anyone a car.... It was the sponsors of the pageant who gave the car out and they have brought a statement stating this....

But if you were in the shoes to choose btw a car and a laptop and you went for a car at that stage in your life then bro you're stupid...

I cannot help but laugh at this. It shows where the society's priorities are.

Some people would claim to be surprised where the easy money, fame and fortune mentality of youths come from.

I am sure men are already queuing-up for 'the most beautiful' girl in UNILAG, that is what the title attracts. She is like exposed nectar, expect butterflies and other insects to want a taste until they finished it.

I beg 2 disagree wif ds ur comment! Who says d car has bin settled wif ds car? Who says she cnt achieve more of ds if she desires?

why are our brains not working properly. I was only encouraging the intelligent girl to make out something from what she has been offered to. I never said a car was bad to own. Moreover, the girls werent asked to make a choice. All am saying is, that much is expected of the intelligent girl from the little she has been offered

Ayobami, who says d girl wif d car is nt brilliant or intelligent? D winner of d debate mite only b gud in public speakin or debate and mite nt b gud in oda areas u knw? Its possible!
