Good graduates should be able to create jobs, and good graduate should not an employer is there a difference.

Creation of jobs sometimes is not the problem funds is the problem

Yes of course, there’s a difference...
First, NOT every graduate is a good graduate.

Further, the operative phrase is “should be able to” (not ‘should’)...
Thus, what a good graduate elects to do with her capacity is her prerogative.

Meanwhile, let’s not drift away from the corpus of the discussion...
The more good graduates Nigeria produces, the more likely they will create jobs!

Entrepreneurship is a talent. Yes, you can learn it and improve it but, just like singing and drawing, if you don't have the talent there's a limit to how much you can improve.

BTW, hope you know that some “singers” nowadays do not actually sing...
While there is of course a large swathe computer-generated drawing and art.

Entrepreneurship is more of an instinct than a talent...
But whichever it is, it blossoms with opportunities and development.

Any properly-educated person can see multiple opportunities...
Whether they choose to pursue same or any at all is an individual choice.

Coldie:
.if it were so all abroad graduates will be employer's of labor

Job creation opportunities lie in solving challenges...
Things that are taken for granted abroad still need to be fixed here.

BTW, I never said every graduate should be an employer...
But reality is that there are greater opportunities to create new jobs here.

Congrats nwannem! A nation that rewards merit as it's never based on race, ethnicity, religious inclination or godfatherism.

With the resources they inherited from you abi?

Dude, the most important resource is found between both ears...
But you are likely one of those dodgy “graduates” and thus baffled!

Quote ASUU president. U choose not to see the sense he's making

backnbeta:
You people are deliberately being unfair to ASUU and the Nigerian educational system. You know ASUU is right on this, but you have chosen to see things only from the FG's perspective!

Normally, not a fan of Bubu’s government...
But only folks who have something to hide would seek to avoid IPPIS.

IPPIS is merely a biometric payment system...
It does NOT affect autonomy, or the so-called Triple Helix Linkage (big words from folks who cannot track their alumni).

Nonetheless, nonsensical that folks who keep running to government for funds are blabbing about autonomy...
If the universities do not depend on government for their very existence, they couldn’t be compelled into the IPPIS system.

Gwilym:
Nigeria cannot position universites to be number one on a budget less than 500million naira, when the ASUU//FG agreement of 2009 put the amount of money needed at 1.5 trillion naira.

Either fees are raised, or a loan needs be taken again.

Money is not the answer to every problem...
What have the universities done with the little money they have to give anyone confidence they will do better with more?

alizma:
But Buhari has something to do with Dangote's wealth ranking among the world richest people? You guys have something crawling in your heads

Diversionary Strawman’s Argument, but nonetheless since you raised it...

Buhari’s cluelessness DIRECTLY prolonged the recession that DIRECTLY led to the Naira’s massive devaluation...
Which devaluation DIRECTLY eroded Dangote’s net worth. It’s not rocket science or should I translate it to Cattle Rearer’s lingo?
>

Mftivi:
it doesn't benefit average Nigerian in any way. FG Bonds rate is unattractive now so it's just common sense that investors would shift towards equities, it adds nothing to the common man.
FDI (foreign direct Investment) have been nose diving since this administration took over and FDI can affect the average Nigerian but in this case negatively.

It does...
If an "average" worker's retirement (or other mutual) fund is invested in equities.

Further, the value of a company's stock affects its valuation (and balance sheet, if it holds treasury shares)...
Which means appreciation may enable it to borrow to invest/expand, and create jobs for the "average" Nigerian!
>

alizma:
Children of hate will say Buhari has paid him 30k

Fortunately, Buhari has NOTHING to do with the NSE which is a PRIVATE entity...
If Bubu did, he would have probably fired the CEO and replaced him with a cattle rearer.

DonFreshmoney:
See as she dry like firewood for harmattan.

I cant believe Mikey saw all the ladies in London and UK generally.. all those plush, sugary, plum and sexy women from all walks of life and then decided to pic this bonga fish as wife. Mike Olayemi Edwards aka Aireys.com. you fall my hands, legs, head and even yanch. Fine niggs like you should have done better.

Anyway as my great great grand father said in 1935. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

My great grand father then concluded by saying opposite attracts each other.

Dude, unlike you, not everyone likes FAT women (not body-shaming btw)...
Furthermore, most INTELLIGENT people marry for CHARACTER (and what's inside), not for nyash. SMH

banio:
Two per State isn't bad. Medicine usually have to graduate not more than a certain number of doctors per year, guess 60 to 70 doctors. This is based on lecturers available and other facilities.

However, are all states represented. The answer is No. Thus ABU should be able to do it's maths and come up with a good admission format.

All in all, it's not easy.

Nigeria needs as many doctors as it can get...
Admitting only 2 per state ON MERIT (others on opaque grounds) is a SCANDAL!
>

So, ONLY 2 candidates per state are admitted on MERIT at ABU...
And still folks wonder why this country has rapidly descended into its sh*thole condition!

simplesearch:
Heard his success story was inspired by that of Bishop David Oyedepo. He probably could be doing so secretly, we never can tell. Real men don't joke with God wherever they found themselves, only narrow minded confuse elite or dregs will spew thrash against God, He is behind everything and will show his mercy to whomsoever he wills Muslim or pagan. Notwithstanding, going to heaven is another different ball game with no iota of compromise in it's demand, which is a complete surrender of one's life to Jesus Christ. Anyone who fails to meet up with this simple criteria or acquire this cheap entry permit, will find it absolutely impossible to meet with God in eternity.

Focusmind:
I can bet you that I pay more taxes than some of these Nigerian millionaires and billionaires. Getting them to pay their fair share of tax is always a problem. That's why the poor are not feeling the impact of these so called millionaires and billionaires.

In advanced countries, taxes from all these millionaires are used to support the poor and provide public goods.

Many billionaires in advanced countries barely pay any taxes...
Certainly NOT what would ordinarily be considered their "fair share" (Warren Buffet ponders why he pays a lesser rate than his secretary).

Despite better tax administration (not necessarily better citizenship) in the West...
Most wealthy folks use a variety of methods to avoid taxes, and wealthy companies (Google, Facebook, Starbucks, etc) hardly pay any taxes.

Meanwhile, EVERY Western taxpayer (not just the wealthy) support public services and the poor...
Conversely, EVERY Nigerian (not just the wealthy), outside of the civil service and few others subject to withholding tax, mostly EVADE taxes.

We need to feel sorry for Africans. Where is Dangote making his money?

Bill Gates and Jeff Bezo and all others making their money would never even think of establishing in Lagos or anywhere else they do not make money except to hide it in shell companies in Panama.

Abeg see see, make una see Africans jubilating for African biggest money launderer.

Some of us have have wondered aloud what business men like Dangote sell outside Africa to be paying big money for adverts in USA.

We have Africans mumu that only foreign investments can liberate Africa, even as Africa gets poorer.

The next saviors to liberate Africans are money launderers.

Ask all the local and foreign businesses how much foreign currencies they have earned for Nigeria instead of looting our forex legally through Central Bank.

Do you actually understand what money laundering is?
Or are simply one of those petty-minded Nigerians who denigrate success (while primordially celebrating failure)? SMH

Microsoft has a Lagos office...
(not to mention the Gates Foundation has put millions of US dollars that Bill gates earned elsewhere into Nigeria).

By definition, EVERY foreign investor in Nigeria earned the monies they initially invested in Nigeria elsewhere...
Nonetheless, a Family Office is merely an investment vehicle to invest family wealth (not corporate funds) in businesses.
>

kiyosaki1:
Dangote is doing it to protect his family business, which is a negative for the nigeria economy and someone is saying good move .

franchasng:
Nigerians lack wisdom. This news alone will trigger so many negative effect on Nigeria's economy because it will further discourage more foreign investors planning to go to Nigeria to invest. Nigeria have a very long way to go

No, it will not...
Because he continues to invest in the Nigerian economy.

Meanwhile, a Family Office is merely an investment vehicle to preserve generational wealth...
Most wealthy people have it in some form, and it has nothing to do with their corporate businesses.
>

RPirez:
There's no way he'll make money, trust me.

In a transparent system like the U.S, there's no mago-mago, no where to hide... no monopoly et al...

Let's see his Net Income after taxes...

Apparently, you do not understand the concept of a family office...
It's NOT an operational business, but rather merely an investment vehicle (Danjuma has one in London).
>

wink2015:
He should first of all consolidate well in Nigeria.

But Dangote should also come and establish Administrative offices+ factories in the Niger delta region.

It is disturbing to state here that Dangote has no office in Delta state or Rivers state.

The cement trucks are a nuisances in most of the streets.

They do not have a garage of their own where they can reach their customers.

Why should he "come and establish Administrative offices + factories in the Niger Delta region"?
Is he the federal government setting up "political" factories and businesses? Or do you want his staff kidnapped by "youths"?

Unless it makes business sense, dude is NOT coming...
Security and insurance (plus community MOUs) alone will render the business cost-inefficient.

$4.9 billion dollars in 2019, even if he paid a 1% tax(which is impossible) that is $49million dollars =#17.64 BILLION naira from only one man, Oga Tunde Fowler has questions to answer...........

That's net worth, not income.

You only get taxed on income (or profits if you are a company)...
You do NOT get taxed simply because your assets (eg, your house) appreciate in value!

budaatum:
This is not a portrayal of Nigeria, but of we Nigerians who create the despicable things described here in our country called Nigeria!

We Nigerians will change our ways when we finally decide to dislike being described this way.

BLESS YOU!

"Nigeria" does not on the wrong side of the road, NIGERIANS do...
"Nigeria" does not sell fake medicines, it is NIGERIANS who do so, etc, etc.

Sometimes u can't satisfy a woman. Money can't guarantee you happiness.

Meanwhile, Linda and amebo...

9jawear:
You can't satisfy most women . Like the proverbial allegory eve gene or character, the urge to go higher, more and more, the comical character in marvel comics because of a woman almost ..... Oppps revealing too much information.

CyberWolf:
They done knack his wife probably ... Women eeh

Kingrefreshed:
Women and their problem. Bring her back to stay in Nigeria she will Nag and complain. Keep her in
London she will Nag and complain bitterly.

If God could not satisfy women who are we.

Gave them Hair.... They scrap it off and put on wig.

Gave them eye lashes, they cut it off and buy fake ones to put.

Gave them lips and they paint it.

Gave them ears and they perforate it.

Gave them boob's and they change the sizes.

Gave them nails and they cut it and fix artificial nails.

Trying to satisfy them is mission impossible!

Etc.... The list is endless!

As a married man when you marry like me.... Get real gees around you so when they start nagging you move out to have fun with your fellow gees. Drink beer, chop pepper soup and be happy.

Life is short!

Happy New year

How do you know? Did they discuss it with you?

How do you know they actually did NOT break up (assuming they did) for the GOOD of the children...
Obviously you do not understand that an UNHEALTHY marriage and household may not be best for the kids. SMH

Timileyin1234:
Ever since Sonia insulted Ighalo brother cos the guy use ighalo house for birthday party, I hate her
The girl is rude

Dude, if you have so much emotional energy to invest in actually hating someone you do not personally know (and who probably does not know of your existence), then sorry to say but you seriously need a LIFE, a job or mental health assistance!
