This is a 2022 article which the minister for Aviation was talking about a visa ban

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2023/03/uae-rejects-buharis-plea-maintains-indefinite-visa-ban-on-nigerians/

I think on this thread last year we even discussed it and blamed those hushpuppi people and cultists
Yea, clear. Congrats to Jagaban(dit), I pray he continues to undo the damage he enthroned on Nigeria via Buhari who he said he made president....2015 levels remain the standard for now.

Fair way to put it but it doesn’t apply to money alone.

Nikolai Tesla died delusional and alone. One of the greatest minds humanity has ever known but he had one-dimensional intelligence even though 6 types of intelligence exist. I’m not sure if he got what he wanted out of life.

Intelligence must be correlated with results or you’re just going to engage in relentless mental masturbation.
Tesla achieved the dream of every scientist: He made key contributions to science and wrote his name on the sands of time.

Do you know how his descendants would feel whenever they see physicists using that name all around the world when studying electromagnetics?

I don't think you understand the honor and feeling it brings when your name is used to name concepts in Physics studied by millions.

Then, the way we do science today is starkly different from how it was done in Tesla's times.

Today, if you had half or just a quarter of the knowledge Tesla had in his time, there's no way you wouldn't live comfortably. You can never be poor in today's Internet age.

That's why scientists invest a lot of time in research. The fact is, if you make certain discoveries as a scientist in modern times, you can never be poor.

There are just so many ways to make money off your discoveries as a scientist, unless you're based in Africa where the majority don't value science and technology.

It was still 1-dimensional fam and I say this not to mock his memory but to lament the possibilities that never happened. He understood Math and Physics at a high level but he didn’t understand how to collaborate with people and sell his ideas. That was the tragedy. I don’t think I’d like to go out of this world the way he did.

You can be a Marconi or Edison and leave you footprints on the sands of time whilst balling good.

I’d rather be a Feynman than a Tesla.

George W Bush my favourite American president of recent years


When I was little, na me and VOA d sleep. I don't have access to internet and I love football news. So I always tune in to listen to Sony Side of Sports. VOA always play that speech every September 11. I don't know whether they still do it sha.

Tesla was Tesla, and Feynman was Feynman. Both were great physicists with good and bad sides, but Tesla was more influential.

Modern scientists don't aspire to be either unless they work in the same research area.

Life isn't a game you just choose, "I want to be this person or that person". There are various factors that shape a person's character.

I don't think there's any physicist that would say, "Oh, I want my life to be exactly like Tesla or Feynman". It just doesn't make sense.

Then most African scientists don't even aspire to lead their life like Tesla or Feynman because as an African, a scientist already has many forces working against him, unlike those in the West.

The environments are different.

Then, people that do Physics as a career mostly choose popular physicists that worked in their specific area of specialization as their mentor or guide. Physics is very wide.

About selling ideas, a person just does his best and leave the rest. No matter how good you sell some ideas, when the time for those ideas to be accepted by many people hasn't yet come, there's nothing you can do.

Some ideas would simply take years to be accepted by many people. It's nature.

When a part of the body has suffered a deep wound for long, it's unnatural to expect it to be cured on applying a treatment within a second or minute.

Such is the nature of some ideas. They'll be accepted when their time has come.

Anyone that promotes philosophy, science and technology in Africa would know it'd take years for many Africans to integrate them into their cultures unless such a person doesn't know the history of science and philosophy, especially in the West.

One just does one's best for posterity's sake. The current generation of Africans are mostly a lost cause. It's not a question of selling ideas to them, but the level of rot and decay.

But why is he so vilified in the Republican Party and not respected like former Presidents from the party?

Is it because he wasn't conservative enough? He is barely involved with the party.

These are the reasons the middle East can't grow beyond whatever they are now. They must loosen their Islamic values to draw in investment.

....check the date of your attached. LOL! You're always in haste to get astray, instead of taking your time to understand the path. Since when alcohol has been decriminalized in UAE?!

UÁE have been adjusting their laws and policies to favour westerners consistently. Friday and Saturday used to be weekend until 2021.

In fact church services used to be held on Friday because its general week-day break while Saturday is half work-day for many firms.

You're well educated but seem you need to work on your exposure to international events. Really surprised you bought that nonsense that Buhari Government successfully lifted ban on the Visa and Flight too. LOL!

Till now, work permit for Nigerians is banned, especially for new Immigrants, I hope its part of the new deal sha.

Trumpism. They feel he is not extreme like Trump. He is an establishment and not a disruptor like Trump. He is a simple guy not someone to beat his chest about his achievements or not, and many felt he was dull and not charismatic enough

Personally I don't trust radicals who say they will disrupt things whether to left or right, they most times are just demagogues and always end up being worse than those they chased out of power

Funny thing Democrats hated Bush throughout until he left power and they are seeing real werreys that came after Bush. It will be like Republicans who hate Biden now and see AOC succeed him
