Story, in the north how many times have military burn down communities

Numerous times bro. Numerous times. They even wholesale slaughter their villages sometimes. It's just not carried by the media like it is done in the South.

mrvitalis:
Lol same Nigeria refused to give him land to build plan maintainace hub in Enugu ... Now they are faking smiles like they are happy

Yet Allen is still doing one Nigeria

I have done one Nigeria here on nairaland... Was one of the biggest advocates

But truth is... As long as you are an Igbo man in Nigeria they would never give you a level playing ground ... The sooner igbos like Allen understand this the better

So, how is he now finally able to take his airline to London? It obviously means that the present government granted the approval.

Isn't it clear that GEJ won the 2011 election because of the votes he got from the West?

Politics / Re: Niger Bans Bulk Sale Of Food Items, Orders Confiscation Of Trucks Carrying Food by olyrayy(m): 10:42am On Feb 10

This is an Intelligent Decision by Niger state Governor.

[b]Controlling the open market to prevent bulk buyers from causing scarcity for small retail buyers involves implementing various measures and strategies:

Regulatory Policies: Implement regulations to prevent hoarding and price manipulation by bulk buyers. This may include setting limits on the quantity of goods an individual or entity can purchase within a specific timeframe.

Market Monitoring: Establish mechanisms for monitoring market activities to detect irregularities such as hoarding or price gouging. This could involve regulatory bodies, market surveillance teams, or technology-driven solutions like data analytics to track market trends and detect anomalies.

Price Controls: Consider implementing price controls or price ceilings on essential food items to prevent excessive price hikes that disproportionately affect small retail buyers. However, this approach should be carefully implemented to avoid unintended consequences such as black markets or reduced supply due to unprofitability.

Supply Chain Management: Improve supply chain management to ensure efficient distribution of goods from producers to retailers. This includes addressing logistical challenges, improving infrastructure, and promoting transparency and fairness in the supply chain.

Support for Small Retailers: Provide support and incentives for small retailers to enhance their purchasing power and competitiveness. This could include access to credit, training programs, and cooperative purchasing arrangements to leverage economies of scale.

Market Information: Facilitate access to timely and accurate market information for both bulk buyers and small retailers. This empowers market participants to make informed decisions and reduces the likelihood of sudden shortages or price spikes.

Promote Competition: Encourage competition in the market by reducing barriers to entry for new players and fostering a diverse supplier base. This can help mitigate the dominance of large bulk buyers and create a more level playing field for small retailers.

Public Awareness and Education: Raise public awareness about responsible consumption practices and the impact of hoarding on market stability. Educating consumers about their rights and responsibilities can help foster a culture of fair trade and discourage speculative behavior.

By implementing a combination of regulatory measures, market monitoring, supply chain improvements, support for small retailers, and promoting competition and consumer education, authorities can better control the open market and mitigate the adverse effects of bulk buyers on small retail buyers.[/b]

CSTRR:

A + B = C.
That's engineering.

Even if you are the dullest in the world, once I have told you that the exam is going to contain A + B = C, then you should be able to pass and pass well.

Having your professor as a father is the kind of advantage that can give you a 5.0 in Engineering.

In the arts, it's not like that.
You would need to be gifted, unless you are going to carry a written and prepared answer into the hall.

Oh. Makes sense.

Engineering is objective, so yes, you can absolutely fake it, atleast to the point of graduating with a complete 5.0.

If it was in the arts and the humanities, I would agree that it can't be faked.

Only the Eguns can legitimately claim to be indegenes of Lagos. Unfortunately for the Eguns, we Egbas, the Aworis and the usurping Kwarans have relegated the Eguns because the Eguns did not embrace Western Education in time

Why did you use usurping for only Kwarans? undecided
Romance / Re: My Chest Is Bigger Than My Wife's Breast by olyrayy(m): 2:55pm On Jan 04
Dilijingsly:
how can we arrive to that, any suppliment or things to eat

If she has become generally skinny, then she just needs to add more weight. It would probably affect the breasts too.

To make her gain weight, you just have to make sure she consumes more calories than she burns. Probably get a body weight scale, then increase her food portions systematically until her weight starts increasing.

I gave you a simple test:

Pull up a speech by Sundar, and pull up another speech of an India guy speaking English with his India accent and listen to both; you will see the difference.

Pull Ngozi speech and another with an Igbo guy speaking English with Igbo accent compare both.

Now to my reference to mainstream America accent, compare Sundar and Ngozi speech to mainstream cooperate Americans like Bloomberg, Oprah, etc you will seen that there is more similarities between their speech to these Americans compare to their Native India or Igbo.

Pull up a speech by Tinubu, and pull up a speech by a local Yoruba man speaking with his Yoruba accent and you will see the difference.

Sundar Pichai speaks with mainstream US accent, compare his speeches side-by-side with a native Indian speaking English and you will see the difference. I work with Indians as well, they are highly skilled and adjust their speaking skills as they move into management.

Ngozi had her initial career introduction in the USA, she speaks with the mainstream US accent. There are a hundred and one accents in the US, she uses the mainstream one. Again, no matter how you adjust in your speaking, there is also that foreign undertone from your native country and you hear that from Sundar and Ngozi.

Na wa O. Sundar Pichai and Ngozi sound like mainstream Americans?

Abi what is your definition of mainstream US accent?

I have the same pedigree as you and those jobs e.g. Engineering, Architect, etc you mentioned are mid-level job.

Also you are discounting the reality that, there are many Programmers who are equally as good or better than you and the employees have to make decisions based on other criterias.

Many Engineering and Programming jobs also include the requirement to be an effective communicator. As an Engineer after doing my designs, I have to stand in front of upper management to do Presentations, in some cases convince them about my design solution against another solution, communicating in an accent they do not understand will not go a long way.

Also High End Presale Network Architects, who go into Boardrooms to convince CEOs, Presidents and Company Directors to adopt a new technology from their provider must be good communicators and in many cases, the only option is to speak in the common accent everyone at the table understands.

Low & Midl evel Engineers or Programmers who just interact with keyboards don’t need these skills.


Lol. Have you heard Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google, speaking? Does he use a fake accent? Most Indian-born people in the US speak English with their native accent. Doesn't prevent them from being hot cakes. The person you're responding to also gave an example of Okonjo Iweala.

Somehow funny we have a lot of graduates lavishing out there😁

Actually English language doesn’t belong to us yet we are so outstanding In it and I see no reason why we can’t normalize speaking our indigenous languages like Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, Benin, efik, ibibio and the host of others.🧐


Why? To further entrench the identity of these tribes and create more room for tribalism.

Not surprised atal. She obviously had a good education but Nigeria as usual happened to her. If only you know how many Uber drivers and commercial bus drivers that are educated to the teeth, this woman's speech in this video wouldn't surprise you at all

This isn't true. She just has an accent. Doesn't mean that she's well educated.

1. What you call refineries are just "makeshift boilers" constructed to distill kpofire aka low quality diesel, kerosene and petrol.

2. Crude oil is stolen from compromised pipelines. This is the only motivation for the illegal business. Take away the awoof stock and they will all abandon the hazardous activity.

Destruction is the only option.
