@ KILODE: stop grabbing for the straw. people from all continents have contributed science. nothing special about western culture or language gives westerners an edge in science even though they've contributed immensely to modern science as we know it. remember the west hasn't always led the world and i'm sure it won't continue to do so forever.

I don't see where you and I disagree bro.

Sounds as though the young lady has a bright future, but the kid will be a social outcast. That's going to matter quite

a bit to a 15 year old girl. She won't ever feel like she fits in during her entire college career.

The American school system does not let kids start school that early or skip grades

Where did you get this bit of mis-information? I have relatives who skipped grades in the U.S. over 30 years

ago. Some of the nonsense found on this board is frightening.

sandokaa:

Somebody just told me the girl is from Bauchi. So, why are the Yorubas rushing to claim her? This one na educated almajiri living in USA! Thank God, she doesn't belong to CPC!

Which Bauchi can she be from? Did you not hear her mother speak? Yoruba-accented English.

"Maybe we will get there, maybe we will fully assimilate, not sure, but[b] I think we have a huge disadvantage due to culture, language and a different philosophical world-view[/b] from the currently dominant ones."

KILODE, this is the statement i disagree with. i also don't think there's any Nigerian or African philosophy or world view that's any more hostile/resistant to science than the western world view is. radically new ideas from scientists have always faced resistance in Europe (galileo galilei and darwin comes to mind) especially from the judaeo-christian quarter. In one of your posts, you credit the judaeo-christian thought with helping science thrive in the west.

So what if she got in to harvard. That does not mean she would get a job, many dont dont. i know a nigerian who never did. After many student debt and could not repay. He is in Nigeria. he had to run back

Becomrich has spoken

Case closed

According to Aare Becomrichn, a criminal from Canada, kini big deal gan sef

who is a criminal. I am not a criminal. You see the school you went to does not matter, it is what is in your brain.

This is university of ife, look many of the universities abroad do not have this. So when people underrate nigeria universities , it is because they never went to one before.

sheesh do you have that picture saved on your desktop or somethin

Its a shame she will come put it in good use in Africa after she has finished.

If like you now using seun osewa, who claim he never went to university or his nairaland, where he edit the post, to make others look silly to judge.





this is inside another nigeria university.  so stop underrating nigeria university. Most of this people online failed in nigeria. 95% of them failed, that why they had to come abroad.  they failed in nigeria universities , so they feel so bitter about and sit on the internet been abusive and editing post. This is what is going on.

That building has a very bad color scheme, among other problems.

why would you think i am a yahoo yahoo. i am not into scam.  

you make me laugh, i dont have time for crime, i have a brain. I have always been smart all my life.  so why would i want to commit a crime when i can use my brain. university does not make you money. I know a man in canada, who did not go to university, but he is a millionaire. people think book will make them rich is stupid.

You are a liar

I just spoke to the Chief of Police in Toronto, and he said you are criminal

You make me laugh fall gbagada for ground

My informant in the CIA just told me that they are sending Navy Seal Team 7 to your apartment. You'd better be ready for them

if you are not a criminal, post your academic record for us to see

the building that house the engineering faculty at the university of Ilorin, which i went too is longer in size than the toronto eaton centre, which is suppose to be the biggest mall in the world.

Dude thats how most schools and buildings in Nigeria are. Dude - have u ever been in the motherland before?

@becomrich
No one is underrating Nigerian universities. We are just celebrating egbe omo yoruba.

DOnt hate, celebrate

yes, you 419 just spoke to the police chief my foot. who is a criminal. You have a hole in your head.

Do you think all african are criminal. Well in Yorubaland, go and ask what we do to a thief.

Your informant indeed. So you think CIA does not have better work to do, than listen to you. Or do you think I am Osama , you are really funny. my life is an open book. I have nothing to hide. If nairaland is what you use to judge people , you have a problem. Nairaland is run by scam artist . you see the apartment , land and cars, they do not exist. You better dont fall into nairaland scam. Nairaland is knew for its many scam in nigeria.

I've only been to Edo state, Delta State, and Lagos and even then, I've never visited a university. What's with these weird designs? What's the point?

I've seen uniquely "Nigerian-style" houses (in terms of architecture) built by rich people that are good looking. Why can't they do the same for the universities?

why should they invite an igbo person like you.  Okoro .

Are we going to University to learn or to look at the buildings?

We should be talking about highly educated tutors not how "fine" a building is. That is why people fail Uni grades

Aare Becomrichn, we need to see your academic record from Ilorin before we can believe anything coming from you

How many As did you get? Did you ever 'gbe egun' when you were at Ilorin?

kandiikane:

Are we going to University[b] to learn[/b] or to look at the buildings?

Who goes to the university to learn?

The university is for shokishombolo. Nothing more, nothing less.

I see.

This is why Africa is seen as backward.

The building is just weird looking. That's all. I wasn't saying (possibly expensive) architecture should really be a focus.


I don't think building weird looking buildings is standard practice across all of Africa, but I could be wrong.

It looks weird to you because you grew up in the US. Looks perfectly normal to me. Red bricks and building that are common abroad look weird to me too  

@SEFAGO, looking at your signature do you regret your life?

kandiikane:

Well technically, thats how I feel about life though. Everything is kind of a burden. There is really no true joy in life, And everything is kind of meaningless.

Not being pretentious though. But just my philosophy of life.

zstranger:

Why is that?

Not going uni to learn. Learn and be educated to get back your resources from outsiders. Because of the book mumus, majority of our resources is owned by outsiders.

Your questions are kind of hilarious. Lets just say there are times I can be in a state of ennui
