why should cnn carry the news? |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by AloyEmeka9: 11:24pm On Sep 27, 2009 |
bawomolo: Because it's rare for Nigerians to choose Mexico of all places for tertiary education. My cousin studied pharmacy in Brazil though. |

He got a Cum Laude (70%) in Mexico, a developing country (with relatively lower quality), and it became hot news. I got a Magna Cum Laude (85%) in Europe (this is true) and I consider myself not so hot, since I did not make a Summa cum laude (the highest grade). When will Nigerians stop being mediocres and celebrating second rate? |

trekkie:When Nigeria is in the news a million more times for similar reasons as this one, then CNN can be prompted. . . |

Aloy.Emeka: CNN Really? How exactly does it concern 250million americans who cant locate Nigeria on the surface of the earth? Why aren't the local stations running with this, AIT,NTA etc etc they are busy showing us madam dora's wedding big Kudos to the guy/girl |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by MrCrackles(m): 11:42pm On Sep 27, 2009 |
Nchara:Maybe CNN or AIT should carry this perhaps |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by trekkie: 11:44pm On Sep 27, 2009 |
and if they feel nigerian news is important enough to send a reporter to the niger delta in nigeria i might add, to cover kidnappings,millitancy etc, i think they can cover something positive about the country happening in their own backyard. granted the story has limited appeal but it will help to boost a positive image of the nation that is why i added that madam rebrander be alerted. we all know the power of the media. |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by AloyEmeka9: 11:46pm On Sep 27, 2009 |
Dis Guy: CNN internal no dey? . Don't mind me jare. The CNN request was funny. Isn't it time for us to make our NTA become popular like CNN so we can strengthen our image using our own media? |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by trekkie: 11:48pm On Sep 27, 2009 |
MrCrackles: hehehehehe ahhh |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by DisGuy: 11:49pm On Sep 27, 2009 |
trekkie: What happened to our own media, shouldn't they take a break from talking about politicians and some corrupt money bags they can also take a break from showing us 'society' weddings every weekend! |

really, would any of you not think CNN was raving if they gave 1 seconds coverage to that piece of news? |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by trekkie: 12:01am On Sep 28, 2009 |
Aloy.Emeka: Dis Guy link=topic=329552.msg4622435#msg4622435 dat e=1254091774:bros i gree. i only mentioned cnn cos of the international nature of the news. not to go off topic but what can they do you saw the thread about the assasinated guardian reporter. apart from that even when there is something newsworthy going on here our pple will prefer to be interviewed by cnn rather than nta. that is a popular complaint by our journalist. i wonder why that is. |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by AloyEmeka9: 12:02am On Sep 28, 2009 |
Shouldn't we be more worried that this guy left Nigerian schools for studies in Mexico?. Are we that bad?. Somebody will soon graduate in Somalia with Egwuofor-Cum- laudae. |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by MrCrackles(m): 12:05am On Sep 28, 2009 |

I got a Magna Cum Laude (85%) in Europe (this is true) and I consider myself not so hot, since I did not make a Summa cum laude (the highest grade). When will Nigerians stop being mediocres and celebrating second rate? Agree, but if I say am some idiot would come and start calling me a pompous person. lol |

Thank God Nigerians that succeeds abroad are well recognized. If they had studied here in Nigeria and excelled, nobody would have known these students. Is it a good thing for Nigerians to leave their fatherland and succeeds outside? Yes, but does it really speak well of us, since we can't recognize our own successful students? |

Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by chiogo(f): 2:16am On Sep 29, 2009 |
LOL na wa for some people sha. what's with the hating?? shiorr. As for the question, "Is Nigeria that bad?" or something like that. . .yes it's that bad. This news is a big deal because it's not easy assimilating into a new environment and coming out at the top of your class with the majority of your classmates indigenous people of the place. What stopped them from doing better having lived there their whole lives? Abeg joo, it's not mediocrity. |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by SEFAGO(m): 2:32am On Sep 29, 2009 |

This news is a big deal because it's not[b] easy assimilating into a new environment[/b] and coming out at the top of your class with the majority of your classmates. I do have to agree, with the culture shock and everything, well not mediocrity persay, but neither excellence. Excellence is Chinua Achebe, non-excellence is the rest of us |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by Sagamite(m): 8:08am On Sep 29, 2009 |
SEFAGO: You really need to cool down. I met a junior relative of a friend in London who knows you and told me who you are, even your name. So calm down as I now know your level and stop boasting around, as I can spill the beans on your "achievements". |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by SEFAGO(m): 8:47am On Sep 29, 2009 |
Man, I am actually beginning to get creeped out , with your obssession, if it is a girl, I would not be worried , but if you know me that is fine, a lot of ppl do on nairaland actually, as I said I have bigger concerns rite now, "you spilling the beans" on my so-called achievements is the least of my problems right now, definitely 0 in priority rite now- please do so if you must- , that doesn't mean I wouldn't insult you when u say somethin stupid or disturb me . |
Re: A Nigerian Is Best Graduating Student In Mexico by Sagamite(m): 8:51am On Sep 29, 2009 |
