Food_consumer: I don't know how to explain this.,
my dad's a tall and muscular man, ma mom's a short, and fat woman...
Fortunately, I'm lucky to inherit my dad's height(i'm 5"11 & still counting)..

But one thing I'm missing from my parent is enough meat on me(i tend to be a skinny guy)

i eat well(my moniker says it all), still yet I'm skinny

Is there something I'm missing?

"Govt": Okay, we don build the house, bring money.

abroad pay= nija rent beta house=new houses don plenty=Govt economy don improve.

WHICH PART OF THIS ANALOGY IS THE PROBLEM?

eGuerrilla: 9.86 million Nigerians living in the US?

Is someone shooting the breeze again?

usmsam: The day I hear this man has done something nice and charitable, that is when I will start respecting him. He should leave all these photo shoots alone, grow up and get married, like his mates.

anonimi:

You obviously do not understand how government works in Nigeria. How will he get his own egunje if he does not "pay anyone to do that"
I see, you may have been carried away by that STORY of N1.5b research grant, right? My bro, abeg learn to read between the line make you for sabi how these poliTRICKians work! Mark this thread and come back on June 07, 2014 to review what has been done so far, ok?

I guess Eko Ile wants us to start singing Halleluja and Alhamudilalhi because supposedly smart Fashola WILL BE installing (future tense) very big generators for the tertiary institutions in Lagos at hyper inflated prices as usual.

Somebody shout Hallelujah to the people's governor

It matters not that so many primary and secondary schools in Lagos state are dilapidated, have no toilets or pipeborne water etc.
MISPLACED priorities.

eko ileee: Funny how we blame the government for not supporting talented Nigerians with research and development funds, but N1.5 billion free research funds is sitting dormant with zero interest or any researcher to claim it for research..


smh...

50calibre:

You are right, work experience superceeds degrees in some cases but if its your first job, then what counts is your qualification on paper.

If there are two fresh graduates vying for a position in a law firm, one with a law degree, the other with a marketing degree. Who do you think would be employed.

javadoctor: Don't study architecture in Nigeria,2reasons
1.CAD.Computer aided design applications has leverage the production of building and electrical drawings done on paper. Therefore people (mostly non architects) can draw their own design diagrams without consulting an architect. Also people can download building plans online for free. This is the result of a vast growing ICT world where Information technology is making people unemployed.

2. Secondly,architecture can't be fully exploited as a course in Nigeria,in developed countries,architects are known for design,architects draw building plans as well as Cars,machine parts,robots etc.architects are useful in a very developed economy

50calibre:

All courses are important some place else but in not in Nigeria. In Nigeria, most courses are useless. Science and technology isn't dead in Nigeria, rather Yoruba or other linguistics are dead in Nigeria.

You see a Yoruba graduate working in a bank, not because there are no qualified people to fill that position, but because of corruption.

peleson: Don't study elect elect in unilag, mowete , mohammed n Co will make u hate u were very smart and brilliant

CFCfan:

I tell you. The entertainment industry in Nigeria is huge! Nollywood has to be amongst the highest employers of labour in Naija.

bory09: Theatre art: is just wasting of years to study theatre art when one will still finish and get to apprentice with an illitrate
phsycology: no one need a phsycology in nigeria because situation of this country is enough for someone to think and reason. independently
food technology: nigeria eat anything they don't think how nutritious it is
computer science: prior to the fact that most successful computer gurus get their knowledge from computer schools and company why waste years in the university
music: so much of musician are not music graduate so far you are talented you are good to go
PHILANTROPIST, IRK, ARABIC: just hate the course

kgold: Propaganda that's the word. As some1 wrote it would take hours. The BarracKs is fortified. Am a soldier and can tell you nothing happened. Dog tags n wallets with Idcard. It costs #250 2 make these each. That's y AHQ has changed the I'd card, so people won't lie about. We have our share of losses, but we have inflicted heavy on their end.what I would advise is that these guys have sponsors and ignorance fuels their agenda. We make breakthrough when villagers distance themselves from these ragtag bandits. Imagine a pregnant women faking Labour to hide a wanted commander if not for our due diligence, there would have been a blood bath. I know the NA isn't perfect but we get the job done, while minimising our losses.
