Good question.

Politics / Re: 35 New Firms Open For Business In Ogun State In Two Years by ektbear: 2:50pm On Aug 07, 2013
dolphinife: Apart from that, 80 new companies presently have their applications before the state government via the ministry of commerce and industry.

How long does it typically take for a company to get approved? Ogun can help affairs by streamlining the process..I doubt that all 80 were submitted in the past month.

Foreign Affairs / Sixty Years Ago, Most South Koreans Were Illiterate; Today.... by ektbear: 8:45pm On Aug 03, 2013
"Sixty years ago, most South Koreans were illiterate; today, South Korean 15-year-olds rank No. 2 in the world in reading, behind Shanghai. The country now has a 93% high-school graduation rate, compared with 77% in the U.S."


Amazing stuff.

Politics / Re: Lets Just Admit The Truth About Wole Soyinka by ektbear: 6:32pm On Jul 31, 2013
dayokanu: Wole is not an intellectual you are the intellectual

Yet you havent passed WAEC while Wole is a professor

Yet no one knows you while Wole is a globally acclaimed Playwright and Nobel laureate

He is just against anything moving, yet he was against the Cabal who didnt want Retardeen to rule while you were sitting on the fence begging for crumbs

I dont expect Soyinka to be an intellectual to you. Just like I dont expect illiterates to understand a professor of Quantum Physics

Politics / Re: Why Is Marijuana Demonized? A Nairaland Debate. by ektbear: 6:59am On Jul 29, 2013
Marijuana shouldn't be demonized. I agree, less dangerous than alcohol for example.

Nothing wrong with smoking it. But for me, I can't afford to because it makes me stup1d.
Romance / Me And Naija Girls... by ektbear: 6:45am On Jul 29, 2013
Don't seem to get along for some reason. Went to brunch today with my buddy, his girl, and this gorgeous naija chick. Georgeous naija chick was feeling me hard (and it was definitely mutual), but then somehow I did something to piss her off.

For me, black and white American girls are so much simpler and easy to get along with (and easy to not offend).

Alas...

I pray that God will grant you a speedy recovery (both physically and mentally) from your surgery. Amputee or not, you are still the same admirable man I've come to know over the past few years.

Politics / Re: Sw Senator Betrays The North by ektbear: 1:40am On Jul 23, 2013
manny4life, where is the evidence (verbal or otherwise) of this Senator agreeing to vote for marrying little girls?

Moreover, even if he hypothetically agreed to such evil, are we to denounce him for then realizing that what he is doing his wrong?

Finally, how do the actions of a single senator come to reflect upon an entire ethnic group?

With all due respect, you guys are being pretty ridiculous

Prof Corruption:

What's betrayal? How can you betray someone without a pact?

The point I am making is that the original poster's (Nchara) argument is senseless.

Even if one assumes for the sake of argument that this Senator views himself as best friends with the North (which there is no real evidence for), it doesn't follow that he must vote for a bill that serves the North's interest but undermines that of his own, and the interests of his people.

Just because you and I are friends doesn't mean that I'll jump off a bridge with you.
Politics / Re: Sw Senator Betrays The North by ektbear: 10:54pm On Jul 22, 2013
Heh.

Better to betray the north than to betray common sense, the values that decent human beings share, and future generations.

Being friends with someone (if indeed this senator views himself as a friend of the north) doesn't mean that you should follow them into insanity.
Politics / Re: 12 Year Women Can Give Birth Safely-sheikh Abubakar Gumi by ektbear: 7:50pm On Jul 22, 2013
Na wa o

they want to turn the country into Afghanistan?

12 year old female is not even a woman. Someone getting pregnant at that age reflects poorly on her parents and society.

Programming / Re: MATLAB: The Language Of Technical Computing by ektbear: 6:49am On Jul 16, 2013
For me, my main beef is that you cannot have more than one function in a file.

Anyway imo Python with Numpy + Scipy can do 95% of what Matlab can and is free and more enjoyable to program in.

I don't mess with Matlab any more these days.
