I do not support NB doling out hundreds of millions to this guy's mother just because he died they should pay as much as his insurance covers and they should consider whether the guy waived NB Plc from bearing any responsibility.

Things should be done the way they should be done. For God sake 6 miners just got buried underground in the USA, most probably dead. The company responsible will take care of it's basic responsibility as stipulated in it contract.

Which one be N100 million? You want make people begin enter Gulder Ultimate Search with the intention to die?

ejunkie:

Let evaluate this for a min,

Boy is only son of his parents (lots of value)

Boy is the only emotional support of his mother (loads of value)

Boy just graduated, could ve well gone on to become anything (literally mega value!!)

i think it's only fair NB diverts 100 million out their much publicised, proudly cited 400 million naira budget to console the bereaved and stop trying to absolve themselves.

The show most likely continue, but then let them pretend to demonstrate a liitle responsibilty.

olu-hak:

What a pity! A lot has been said on this issue, my only advice for NB Plc is to discontinue with the programme and have the family compensated.

Having known that the contestants are not professional swimmers, organizers should not have taken these people to a pool that is detrimental to their degree of professionalism.

May your soul rest in perfect peace.

my sentiments exactly.

this is a reality show.in real life, events do not follow any prewritten script.

the young man made his choice. It seems we all want to adopt the victim culture that pervades america."every bad thing that happens to me is someone else(usually a Mr BIG with deep pockets)'s fault.

with all the hints that 'mago mago' involved in his entry into the show, should anyone be suprised.

one of the issues steven covey discusses in the seven habits of highly effective people is the tendency of people to fake abilities/skills they do not have. he pointed out that you can get away with this up to a point, but sooner or later, you will find yourself in a position where you will have no choice but to use your nonexistent abilities, and that's where the problems begin.

its the same sort of deception that causes collapsed buildings in lagos(built by contractors with '20 years of experience').

in this case,the only direct victim of deception was the deception was the fellow himself.

I hope future contenders for reality shows (the new ,raging get rich quick scheme) will consider this.

also, it has been said : it takes five years to become an overnight success.we should stop looking for shortcuts (becoming an overnight success in three weeks)and accept reality TV for what it mostly is, human beings debasing themselves on national tv while the sponsors reap millions in free advertising.

Dekie:

Instead of you to say thank you to Dekie for the correction given to you, OLODO , I now realised how you managed to have stayed in all the major cities of Nigeria.

Thanks Techie please help and educate them on the realities of life.

iT's so sad but I think this might not have to do with his inability to swim. . I just have a feel it's not ordinary but more of a spiritual thingy.
