Bontee: The cost for attending a unity school is the same irrespective of the cutoff mark used in gaining admittance so the logic does not correlate for me and there is no where in the world such is practiced.

Requirement for acceptance is same cost..

Bontee: There is nothing absolutely wrong with the cut of mark so the house of reps will at the end of the day be chasing shadows. The purpose and system of admission into the unity schools has already been laid out so why the fuse about the cut off mark. We should rather focus on using a different criteria to select students into the unity schools since the present criteria is not allowing us to see the reason why they were established in the first place.

Note: In my opinion the present arrangement of admittance is faulty but the disparate cut off points is on the right foundation.

Let's put it this way, do you mind paying N135 for a litre of petrol while someone is allowed to pay N5 for the same litre of petrol simply becuase of his geographic location?

Why does he have to donate money to OJB? How much money has OJB given to charity before he became ill? What happened to his savings, investments, rainy day funds? Did he blow all the money up on women, cars and bling?
Instead of telling WhiZkid how to spend his money, why don't u go and make ur own money and spend how you please.

mizzkizzes08: umm honestly u didn't have to comment just to sayy next

U got what u wanted!

mizzkizzes08: Usually I attract Africans on Facebook and they all seem so sweet. I met this Nigerian guy and omggg he is extremely attractive + sweet extremely sweet. But i notice a change in him and he started to call me fat and being an African American yess it gets to me... Also i wanted to know if they are all scammers and do they really love us African American women as they claim?

Yes, they are all mean and scammers because MEN Killed JESUS. Next Please!

Richard Branson said that Virgin Naija iwas his biggest mistake. Any private company that ventures into this so called PPP is only driven by loss. Another avenue to dole out Naija money to their cronies!

Symphony007: Rubbish! Do this people know the meaning of priorities? They are building a bridge in a areas which will have little or no economic impact in nigeria but there is no road connecting port harcourt to bonny island, the location of the largest oil terminal in west africa, largest LNG plant in africa, the only plave in nigeria that has uninterupted power supply. Do you know what a road linking it to port harcourt will do for the niger delta economy? Yet they keep doing lip service for years. Common sense is not common.

Cos Naija politicians are incapable of using their brains to build something that can benefit the country.

SELFWORTH: I am surprised by the volume of insensitive comments on here. Who amongst you knows what awaits you tomorrow?

Mama could be wrong, but until you are in her shoes, how can you judge so heartlessly? Let's hope many of the so called commentators on here will not one day find themselves in Mama's shoes. Life is unpredictable. Its easy to be shouting someone else down as a 'loony' until your own dark days come.

And ur fkcuing point IS??

omocheche: what re u talking abt civilized person, do u think d white men don't practices ritual too? I am not on MC LOHP mum side but don't insult nigeria just because u re not proud of what u re.

What a display of ignorance. You are the one insulting our intelligence!

If he hadn't been drunk and overspeeding, this accused ritualist wouldn't have " killed" him. So the ritualist deleted his sense of judgement and forced him into overspeeding? People are always shifting blame instead of accepting responsibility!

dahonestboss: What is great Britain doing to Africans and Indians, through them, Britain earned her greatness, and the eastern europaens who contributed nothing to Britain can come in millions without restrictions. What racism and double standard. Who isn't an immigrant anyway?

Starting with the Queen who has a German root, Williamm with an Indian DNA, Boris Johnson with a Turkish ancestry....we are all Immigrants someway somehow. There was a time in history when there was no single europaen in America, Australia, Newzealand, Canada etc, but they immigrated there usurped these lands, killed the aborigines and populated these lands with themselves and took Africans slaves to till these lands and farms in the carribaens to feed their greed and build their wealth, now they don't want to share.

A time will come when Europaens will beg Africans to come, but Africans will not see the need. I wish Britain luck!

Delusion of grandeur. Africa will never be better than EU cos they are not lazy and never fold their hand wait for you to pass them.

9ja_I_hail: Some comments are really irrelevant, how will NASS, Ministers be hit most if this policy stays come Nov?

They and their families are most frequent travellers to UK. Why are they protesting over another country's policy as if it's their birthright to be issued UK visas? Let them fix Naija instead of running to UK for shopping, holiday and medical treatment. How is this case of national importance? I bet you less than 1 million Nigerians are going to be affected by this policy, there are over 20 millions Naijas that are unemployed. 160m Naijas need constant electricity and we are debating why another person wants us to pay a gate fee before we are allowed in his home/party.?Misplaced responsibility !

Wey those NL E-warriors wey dey always bash Naija in Diaspora?

NASS , ministers,relatives conubines are worried because they are going to be the hardest hit.

WhyAWhy: My papa preaches something doesn't mean I agree with it

You are a hypocrite if you have not disavowed his teachings; and you are a benefactor and heir to his religious empire.

I keep saying that corruption is the only evil that brings all Naija politicians together while some gullible folks think their political party is better. These are all political harlots that jump from one bad party to another one that is even worse.

Practice what u preach does not apply to Pastor Kumuyi's folk?

dayokanu: Bisi Akande was named the best governor in Nigeria, he built the State secretariat in 4 yrs.

What did Oyinlola do in 8yrs

Who named him "the best governor" in Nigeria? So his most outstanding accomplishment was building a state secretariat? Smh.....

Garri the 1st: PDP really destroyed the South-West. Yorubas did. The wise thing to booth them out. Same with Edo State. PDP is bad news any day, anytime, anywhere!!!

What did AD do b4 PDP came into power? Folks like you think that party is the problem instead of greedy politicians. Same folks that started AD, late joined PDP, and formed ACN , Labour and APGA.

Look at who's talking. Where was his patriotism when he was illegally awarded an Oil block which he later sold and $500 million? His shipping company run by his younger brother, Musa controls almost all the foreign shipping lines berthing on Lagos ports. Where is his patriotism when he has illegally stolen what belongs to Naija? He's the chairman of ENI Nigeria, how did he become that if it were not for corruption and greed?
The only reason he cares about Nigeria is because of his illegally acquired wealth and investments.

Sibrah: There is no offense in leaving some school the way they are until the funds to fix them become available. Atleast, he hasn't borrowed, so it is safe to say he is planning to reconstruct these schools as the funds come in and avoid paying interest.

Cretin statement of the year!

Rap maestro: carbon dating is not always correct...

So is "bible dating" more accurate? Who determined Metusellah's age?

U got lucky they did not lose your passport. It happened to a friend of mine at Naija Embassy. They got their job through cronyism and Oga at the top...

sureteeboy: This post is simply insultive to the bible. Didn't Methuselah live for 965 yrs.

Until you provide the site/tomb where Methuselah was buried in order to use carbon dating to find out his real age, his long age seems unproven and as such, could be called a fairy tale/parable!

Instead of folks to see that Politrickians are taking them to be fools and stealing from them, they resort to attacking the messenger.

FG has the power to ask Thuraya to give such info. Go ask Blackberry how some Arabian countries demanded some info of their subscribers. Govts are monster and can threaten to shut their operation down or label comforter of enemy.

AdoOloro: You are clueless, popcorn and groundnut selling for someone who'll have only Saturdays and maybe Sundays to run things

Kindly read the OP's post again.

A full time employee in Nigeria, no matter his income, is a big boy who'll never sell groundnut. That is Nigeria.

Thanks for the insult anyway, we know your type.

Unless you meant clueless as a compliment , I'm insulted as well. A N200,000.0 idea of a mobile business must always take his time. A big boy is someone who's striving to consolidate on what he has, not someone who feels that something job is beneath him/her. I think you are fixated on groundnut, u gotta be innovative, how about real Naija Honey roasted/baked nuts that are well packaged and sold to some super markets?If someone is making money selling chin-chin, I see no reason why healthier nuts cannot sell. Get ur mind off big boyism, it's ur bank account that determines how big boy you are not having a job. Additional income makes a lot of sense, he has to roll up his sleeves to get it done in order to make some bread.

AdoOloro: I can't believe what i'm seeing. Popcorn?? Ground nut For a big boy
Don't you want him to live long?

A big boy is not asking for a N200,000 idea. Big boy idea is how to invest N50-N100million. You are still warped in poverty idea. Ever wonder why coca cola, Pepsi and Coscharis are in "pure" water business? Start small and grow big!

sambos994: We should use any means possible to stomp out Boko Haram. Even if it means cutting of sat phones.

U still don't get it. Why discussing your winning strategy with the enemy? If they had Sat phones, they would simply switch off!

SLIDE waxie: U are the DUMBEST

You are the dumbest! How about not telling them or asking Thuraya to give them accesd to listen to Sat communications originating and terminating in Northeast? Must we alway employ crude tactics in everything?
