God bless u. I keep telling people all the time. That's basically how I made my 2.1, by cramming. I feel only lazy students don't cram.

Even though I made a 2, 1 too, 2 1 no guarantee u nothing in naija brother. Plus cramming or not, the main thing na to pass ur exams and pass them well. How one goes about that (by hook or by crook) shud nt really matter for me. But in all try to attend lectures and understand at least the basics of wateva course u studied so u won't be a dunce when ur talking with your colleagues of the same field.

PS: Cramming cannot and does not work for all courses. If ur an engineer or graduated from the pure sciences like statistics, physics, mathematics or chemistry u will understand what I just said.

u ppl sha lack sense of reasoning.. wetin concern Yoruba with your thrash? u well?

I'm a Lagosian and I will say this any whr anytym and it's not meant to be an insult. Just as igbos like money too much, yorubas are very fearful and are averse to taking risks. This is why many of them end up as never do Wells or as yahoo boys... Some wud call them cowards but that is taking it too far... Now do ur worst bozo!

There is no provision for u guys allowance anymore my guy, hustle ur way out... This is what we have been saying, this current govt is just too blind and deaf and lame and the president doesn't know math and can't speak good English.... While they have been fighting corruption (on the pages on newspapers) the real corruption has even multiplied cos they all know govt is only focusing on the last administration. This is the worst method to fight this evil. The fight against corruption should be holistic and systemic, it shud be about plugging the loop holes in the constitution and otherwise that aids and abet corruption. Anyway na neanderthal (ancient man) be una president so what does he know?

Well, typical of many yorubas. Too fearful even when thrs nothing to be afraid of. For ur own hometown u dey fear dey run like person wey thief. Abeg u deserve to lose evrytin u lost. Next tym be more courageous... Oni iranu oshi

Lol. Error niyen o! Most times the company expects u to have done ur own background checks to get an idea of their salary structure. Also, if ur successful at the interview, u'll get to the final stage where grade or pay as the case may be, is thoroughly discussed. An offer letter on which ur total annual breakdown is contained is handed to you and if u don't like the pay u see u can either tell them it's short of ur expectations and reject their offer. If they really want u, they'll increase the offer. This is an HR person speaking...

Firstly I hope he brought money from 1985 to pay them or where will the 2m naira each come from? Secondly, if this is true and he actually made the decision himself how can he still go to the podium and announce 209m naira? The man does not know how to read cos it's obvious he just read out wat was on paper, he doesn't even know value of money, imagine mistaking 2m for 200m. Mehn I cant believe this! Meanwhile, where will the money come from? That's my own issue here, cos it definitely isn't in any budget. This man called buhari needs to be saved from himself.

Interview at IGR NIG at 11 am today? How real is this?

I think it's real, when did u apply?

Lagos has been the nerve centre of commerce in nigeria since the 19th century. Most of the biggest coys have their head offices here, so yes its where the most opportunities are. Though you can get rich any whr in nigeria but lagos makes it look so easy. Though I muse add that it can be very stressful cos of traffic and too many criminals and touts evrywhr. Eko o ni baje o!

asEdeyHOT:
The deliberations were going on well till, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe of Abia state decided to emit IPOB induced nonsense

The main problem we have in this country is IPOB youths.

These group of criminals and terrorists are waging war against anti- corruption policy of the government.

Nigeria will conquer IPOB and subdue them

The senate should ignore any IPOB supporting senator and pass the budget ASAP so the government can implement it

God bless Nigeria

U and ur ilks are the reason nigeria may never get out of this cesspit. I spit on ur face! All ur posts are about IPOB, IPOB of just yesterday. U knw ur problem? U just don't knw anything, I mean nothing at all! Make IPOB matter no give u chronic hypertension o.

Oya beg me more . Abeg I no get tym 4 u, swerve binsh

Ioannes:
that's not the question. the question is, why is it that every tribe and tongue you guys come in contact with despise you, be it in Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Indonesia and so on?

Who be this one again now! O boy carry urself go one side cos if I give u a piece of my mind this afternoon it won't be funny. Go and ask ur father that question. Onye nzuzu...

And the tyrant could not say anything about this... Nigeria is just useless...

ElFenomeno1:
Thank you my brother. If GEJ had a choice he would have truncated the transition of Democracy when Nigerians kicked him out in droves last year.
A man that brazenly supported electoral fraud, people are praising the cu nt for a peaceful election and for handing over power... do you praise people for doing the right thing?
Smh. Once again, koni ragba fun GEJ.

O boy, all na same ppl, stop hating and get a life.

KMJY:
Which "one section?" I am from the North Central Nigeria and there are million of us who are against this Buhari's government of impunity, propaganda and misrule. For the fact that there are thousands of internet users in the South compare to the North does not mean that northerners aint lamenting. Kindly come out of the web that has caged you and your biases and u will understand what I'm talking about! Pls, anybody that insult IPOD again base on the foolery that they are the only ones who are against PMB, tell them that alot of ppl across the nation aint smiling at all!

Thanks for this comment bro. When igbos talk yorubas are quick to play the ethnic card foolishly while denying reality. The country is sliding into a deep recession, too much lie and propaganda such that no one believes whatever the govt says anymore, no policy direction, suffering has increased. Yoruba ethnic warriors need to understand that it's not a sectional or tribal affair but reality. I personally am against buhari cos of his past records and as they say, a leopard doesn't change its spots. If APC fielded Kwankwaso or even Atiku or El Rufai, I wud have gladly voted for any of those 3, Buhari is just not it mehn... So u can see it's not tribalism but realism that is the crime of igbos in this country. Just like Sanusi said, the yorubas are the problem of this country cos they are always too quick to throw up the ethnic card. I pity this country, all these are symptoms of a deeper problem. I'm just tired...

oga the way forward for our country is when every well meaning individual start asking themselves what will they contribute in making nigeria great in their own little way....how we use our God giving talent, intellect and idea to change the situation of our individual life as well as our immediate society. read america history, years after america's independence they fell into great depression, things weren't working out the way it should be, but they knew 1 thing for their to be a great america citizens should think of what they should do for their country, and not necessarily what the country will do for them...orji uzor kalu was soo poor when him and his bro nnanna was attending cameroon road primary sch, his mother was selling akara in front of their yard at market road, his dad hanger at ahia ohuru. but today he have not only made name for himself but for Nigeria at large while most of his mates (who are still in square 1) will be like "Nigeria is rubbish, nothing is working out, i dont have any job since, the government have done this and that".
my point is use what you are blessed with to make yourself great and your nation proud.

Ur behaving like the proverbial ostrich and don't want to face the main problem of this country. Just brace urself for a terrible year economically cos all indices are pointing to that, even China is almost having a recession...

IQnoCommon:
no be only FP material na ZP material u better stop causing genocide with style or what rubbish are u trying to start?you better be careful cos u have Internet doesn't give u room to say trash that will influence ignorant people

Why don't u read it to the end and stop saying trash huh? And is any of those things up there false? Get the hell outta here mehn...

Elhabeeb1:
The way some people on Nairaland chose to be stupid baffles me without definition.

Pls shed mire light sir.

The parents have to be either stark illitrates or they are overprotective of their son. Before I was 18, my momma (may her gentle soul RIP) used to warn us that at 18 she and dad no longer owed us anything as it is the adult age in Nigeria and that after university we should find our own path and that made me n ny bro sit up and understand that that house was truly not ours bit our parents own. Immediately after school I cud no longer even bear the house so I wonder how the guy has been coping cos in ur parents house you aren't a man of ur own, small thing dem go dey ginger u like say u be baby. If he doesn't stay alone now and plan his life, when will he? He shudnt mind the parents abeg cos they aren't helping him at all, in fact they are killing him.

Kimberly60:
I met her when she just graduated from Madona okija, she is from Edo state and lives in Benin, she was all I wanted in a woman, am ibo, I live and work in Ph, I will make it brief, we have dated for 2yrs now, her mom is aware of my efforts and struggles towards this relationship, to be sincere I have loved this girl with all my life, sometime in August 2015 I engaged her in her church, she accepted to marry me only to get home and her mom asked her to return the ring, she can't marry me cos am ibo and she is Benin, secondly am not very rich, and I practically have nothing to offer her, finally she is the only Gurl, Hmmmmm she never wore the ring for one day after d engagement, I kept complaining but all to no avail, she never made me see her put effort to be with me, I kept complaining, I can't count the number of times I drive to Benin just to see her, if I say 40 times God knows it's too small, I have introduced her to my family and making arrangements for marriage only for her to chat me up saying the relationship is over, she cant continue, am in deep pains, deeper than you can imagine, telling me she is the only girl of her mom, am trying so hard to move on, her mom knows so well my efforts, she never stopped the relationship all the while, when her daughter was posted to delta for service I drive all the way from ph to Edo to pick her and take her there, I can boldly say through out her service year not for once did she go to her PPA alone, all of a sudden I have nothing to offer, God will Judge them all. They deceived me: they will forever struggle and at the end have a worthless end, I write this in pain, I just need an advice on how to move on, is it wrong loving a girl who isn't your tribe?

Bro, she never really loved you, co's uve been the one trying too hard to make her love you but she just does not. She used u all the while. If she really loved you she wouldn't care whatever her mom thinks about you. Chide urself a lil, drink or smoke or do wateva relieves ur sorrow for a while then pick ur fúcking self up and move on, taking the bitter lessons from this episode. There are other beautiful girls out thr trust me.

PS: If there's no fireworks from the start and she isn't deep into you, don't invest too much in it financially, emotionally and otherwise.

Emeraldcute:
will i read all that

But it's short na

sickstars:
Thank u

So I meet u on this thread with a sad smiley once again. I've noted with a heavy heart that ur deeply in need of someone to reach out to. Remember that no one should exist or live in isolation as this mostly leads to more despair and hopelessness. Reach out my dear, thr is nothing that ur passing thru that is the first of its kind in the world. Please I plead with u to share this burden, with me if u want. I'll modify this post later to delete it. I hope to hear from you sickstars

LaRoyalHighness:
I just hope they ain't innocent people. I don't trust Nigerian police. #Police is not my friend

My dear I jus dey look the news o. 3 armed robbers and only 1 gun? Something doesn't feel right with this news

I don't trust NPF in anyway so I take this news with a pinch of salt. So where are the other guns? Or 3 armed robbers were sharing one gun?

I have just one question. How come it was never mentioned that there was blood on the bed? Also, the doctors said absolutely nothing about forceful breaking of the hymen, does it mean she wasn't a virgin? At 14? Nawaa o...

Meanwhile Mr James can kiss his job adios... He shud be jailed asap.

FisifunKododada:
Because our Judicial system is rotten to the core - even Ibori was ONLY brought to justice by a British court. Even if a Nigerian court finds Dasuki and Metuh guilty this afternoon, within 24hrs they would bribe another judge that would vacate the ruling of the original court. And the saga will continue endlessly, wasting time and money. What Buhari and his legal team are doing is controversial but necessary. We have to get some of these stolen funds/associated assets back so that they can be used to solve some of the teeming problems in the country. Also, indefinite detention will pass a strong message to all future looters that they can no longer depend on a corrupt judiciary to shield them from the executive arm. These are extraordinary situations that require extraordinary actions.

Bode George and Nyako were convicted where pls? There are other names I can't rmbr right now. Truth is the law is an ass and the onus always lies on the prosecutor to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused is guilty and not on the accused to prove his innocence.

I'm sure u still haven't read the article Mr man. Seems reading it is a gargantuan task for u huh? Pls don't mention Mr again until u have read it and spare me all this ur Uzor Kalu storey man...

banki:
Op

You started by telling us how igbos are hated in the north and not accepted

Please tell me why you failed to mention that many successful igbo people were trained in the north and cut thier billoniare teeth in the north, if they were hated why will ikpeazu, orji uzor, Rochas okorocha, erisco foods etc be successful? Abi were they not in the north?

What is this bullshit about civil war? Did the biafran not also kill fedral troops? Was it not a war why single him out? What about the people that started d war and ran to Ghana and ivory coast?

Why didn't u also tell us that ume ezeoke and chuba okadigbo were his running mates in 2003 and 2007

Stop the victim mentality

Mehn, ur mind needs goko cleanser it's too full of ... The article isn't really about Igbos, it's about the way forward if we must coexist together. Nothing to do with victim mentality. It's not only igbos that have regional agenda if not why do.we have ACF, OPC, MASSOB, etc... Did u actually read the article to the end?

phrankchek:
That Muhammadu Buhari as a young military officer internalized this anti-Igbo sentiment in the North is not in doubt. That Buhari was part of this plot to exterminate the Igbo race during the civil war is stating the obvious. That that hatred against Ndigbo is still ingrained in him even till date is glaring

But Olusegun Obasanjo was a key player during the war in "exterminating the igbos", he played even a more prominent role against the igbos during the war, soo how come the same igbos voted massively for him during the 1999 elections even went ahead to vote for him again massively during the 2003 elections even when Ojukwu the igbo leader ran for the same seat under APGA, as if that wasn't enough the same Obansanjo gave Nigerians the brother of one of the igbo exterminators - Shehu Yar'Adua as the next President, the igbos voted for him massively even when one of our illustrous son Orji Uzor Kalu ran for the same position....soo igbos "do we really know what we want?"

U and I knw igbos voting for igbos would even worsen the whole matter. Besides all those candidates had no chance in hell of winning even if all Igbos voted for them so wats ur point? Anyways the article isn't about Igbos producing a president really, read the last 2 paragraphs and tell me Wat u see. It's about the way forward for this entity called Nigeria.
