maclatunji: I agree with you, there are many ways the article/collection can be improved on. You could list reasons why you think being smart is cool.


Lots of ppl can get d job done(irony). But Right methods witout d right motives are shallow at best n evil at their worst. Wot am i sayin in essence? Ppl can claim being smart, bt nt all smart moves re worth it.

So i fink dat being smart depends on individuals grin grin necessary doz nt need to be listed.

Being smart is a gift of nature, there's no magic about.
Education its self cannot make one smart.

Or it takes really smart people to appreciate another smart person and we may not have the critical mass of smart people yet in Nigeria hence we are the way we are.
You must have heard that a one-eyed man leads blind people.
What do you think

I think you're probably the smartest guy on nairaland to even think the president might actually be smarter than his people and still get likes for it.

to me oo, being intelligent means you're smart, while being smart doesn't guarantee/indicate that you're intelligent... Atleast that's how I see it though...

@ point 3:

Smart folks don't win arguments, they sit quite and let d dull ones vibrate. Nitwits wins more arguments, becos dey always starts nd ends an argument.

If reason 6 is the only one on the list, I think it's worth the effort. The dumb ones are outnumbering the smart ones lately because people pay more attention to looks and superficial things instead of the content of the brain.

@Op: Let me tell you another cool reason to be smart:
It is sweet to your soul. Understanding, knowledge, comprehension and so on are so sweet to the soul and mind! To be able to understand a proverb, solve a riddle, explain a theory, formulate a hypothesis- it is so sweet! Try it and see!!

to an average Nigerian, being smart could mean being sharp, dubious, lawless, corrupt and other vices

cool
....out of many instances, I'll give you one.
A student who is intelligent may graduate with first class and finds no job, but a smart student may graduate with pass and land a good job. cool

Even though ur point is clear, I feel like sharing a bit advise here...
"Brilliant" is what u ought to have used...
There is no way a smart student can graduate with a pass, unless he was a victim of: unseriousness; lecturers failing him on purpose, missing scripts, not the course he wanted, or the Devil!
People often use this example, but they don't bother to knw wat caused it! If the student was really smart, he wouldn't have spent 4 years (plus strike), knwing that he would graduate with a very poor grade!
I heard a story of a guy, he graduated with sumtin lik this, because the lecturers made him there "target". He wasn't even syched/freaked out by his poor grades (cos he knew it was the lecturers), he just wanted to be a graduate since he had no other option...
He graduated and found his own advertising agency in Lagos! And today he's not close to being poor!!

That is the average Nigerian's understanding of being smart, which is why we are the way we are all over.
Meanwhile that may be labelled as being street smart or having street credibility such as Tinubu and IBB.
They are both very smart crooks who know how to psyche up their people and audience while playing and preying on our selfish greed to their personal advantage as we are left poorer despite their sweet words.

That is what we are used to and praise, worship, idolise & adore!!!
