Sometimes i wonder if Christmas is being celebrated because of the birth of CHRIST or the myth of santa claus. this tallies with 2Tim 4 vs 4.(And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables). Please friends celebrate CHRIST this season and not the myth of santa claus |

Education › A Student's Comment ASUU 2013 by AdekunleSegun(op): 5:48pm On Dec 02, 2013 |
I was browsing facebook for updates as usual, i came across an update by myschool @ https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=685003394872659&id=100869999952671&refid=17, i saw this comment as regards the ongoing ASUU STRIKE 2013 and i think this worth talking about. Over to my fellow Nairalanders Infact, most people are now attacking ASUU based on what the politicians are saying. This is the real situation of things in Nigeria. We do not see any thing through to a logical or even radical end. Nigeria spends and waste money on nonsense projects with no benefit to Nigerians. Our Universities are not measured up in the world. Politicians are busy enjoying themselves with our money and NO ONE HAS THE GUTS TO SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! Their children are all abroad or in private universities, yet what ASUU is asking for is to reinvent our universities by reinvesting. But its not a political priority because non of their children are affected.Our universities are busy churning out half baked graduates, with no clue of what they actually studied. No creative minds in our youngsters apart from how they want to be a cultist or work as a politician.Engineering students are nothing less of a technician. Medical graduates are more like senior Nurse. SO IS THAT WHAT WE WANT FOR NIGERIA WHILE THE REAL CROOKS ARE BUSY EMBEZZLING OUR MONIES AND WE ARE BUSY CELEBRATING THEM.Only in Nigeria you see old men still fighting to remain relevant in a position, while the young ones stay away. If you dont have a name that has been known in the political arena, then you are nobody! And that is why NIGERIA IS GOING NOWHERE!!! WHY CAN”T PEOPLE NOT SEE THESE THINGS?I only blame ASUU for even considering to go back to work without getting what they asked for. If you can’t be ready to die for what you stand for, Why did they start in the first place? Even if they are all sacked, the universities will remain the same and no improvement will be done as Nigerians easily forget. source: https://m.facebook.com/comment/replies/?ctoken=685003394872659_7645481&ft_ent_identifier=685003394872659&gfid=AQAZvX-9NGktcaOY&_rdr#685034848202847please note: i am not one of the Admins of http://myschool.com.ng |

Politics › Why It Is Difficult For Me To Re-marry – Oshiomhole by AdekunleSegun(op): 3:01pm On Nov 16, 2013 |
I came across this and decided to share this part with my fellow Nairalanders. Governor Adams Oshiomhole cele brated his 5th anniversary as governor of Edo state last Tuesday in grand style. After the colourful occasion, Oshiomhole discussed national issues and his life as a widower with journalists and he declared that his greatest regret in life today is the death of his dear wife Clara. He spoke on other national issues. Excerpts:
By SIMON EBEGBULEM, Benin City
Why have you not remarried since you lost your wife? I wish you would have avoided the question because really when I talk about my late wife, people may not understand why? You are in a position to judge whether to agree or disagree. When a man in my own case has the privilege of being elected as a state governor or president, your wife’s status changes automatically to the first lady of the state or the country with all the glamour that goes with it.
To have the kind of wife I had, who was familiar with all the police stations in Kaduna and outside, and sometimes searching for her husband who might have gone to work and detained by Police on account of trade union work, it was her lot to stand by me and she bore all the deprivations of a husband you were never sure where he was going to be at the next minute. At a point, she called me an absentee husband.
In one interview she said ‘I have donated my husband to the Nigerian workers’, so she went through all that pain and the day we were inaugurated is usually the day where women put on their very best, befitting a stature of the first lady of a state. But on that occasion, we discussed how to appear because we didn’t have the opportunity of long planning. I was declared on the 11th as the winner of the election and was to be sworn in on the 12th.
So I said to her, I can’t change my identity now because I have been a worker and have used khaki as a factory worker and President of the NLC, and I don’t want to look different and she agreed. Rather than going to buy lace, she opted to wear the same khaki, except that my own was better sown than hers because the woman who made her own was not used to sowing khaki for women.
So I looked around and imagined that she should have been by my side today to share the joy of my 5th year anniversary. If you come from my background, any woman who agrees to marry a man who is not rich, a man who alternates between police stations and cells and lives in a one or two bedroom apartment, that is your real love. When my wife said I love you, it was from her heart.
I just imagined how she would have felt seeing all these people. The only worry she ever had was who was going to employ our children owing to my agitations with big establishments, because as an organized labour, when we leave the NLC, we fear that our lives would be lonely because it would be a payback time for all those big people I have harassed in the course of my work. So, it would have been joyous for her to see that five years down the road , I have more people around me than I have before.
Her second fear was that she never approved my involvement in politics because she was very proud to be referred to as the wife of Oshiomhole because then she gets all the favour and saw the affection because most Nigerians were happy with my stewardship at the NLC.
She was worried that once I get into politics, I would be ridiculed and all of that would go. She felt I should keep the name. But I told her even before I went into the NLC. NLC was a write off as military apologists, the human rights community distanced themselves from the NLC and I said you can always chose how you want to be remembered; that I’m going into politics to redefine and demystify governance and reconnect with the very ordinary people and politics offers that platform for anyone who believes the ordinary man deserves a better deal.
So for all that and for many other reasons, that is one thing that I regret that she should have been there to also see the other side of life. I have seen it all, in this state now, they are people who will call me the oppressor and you know who they are, the oppressors of yesterday.
If you ask ‘Mr fix it’ who I am, he will tell you I’m oppressing him because I have de-fixed him. It would have been nice for my wife to see life’s full circle; that those guys who feasted on us and cheated, that we have reduced them to political vegetables and placed them on permanent political oxygen.

goood. [quote author=tm-tech]These pple funny gan Õoº°Úº ..... Aw does d indecent dressing of our generation contribute to the decadence in the older generation.....she wan turn Nigeria police to school teachers wey go dey flog pple for indecent dressing.....she needs a copy of naija constitution....and let her start the floging wif her own children ....................morning guys.....[/quote]go to bed please Royal Roy: Put women in a position of authority and their first victims will be their fellow women.
So if she Is empowered her concerns will be the indiscriminate arrest, harass and flogging of young girls?
Let any indecently dressed lady face her own shame alone. What's the business of the public with that?
So much for gender equality and balance. The business with the public is that the immoral ones made it public. you can go naked in your room but not public. mtcheeeeeeeeeeew possibilita: its a good ideal and also a bad ideal because not everybody can be guilded by fear of God in them since not everybody is a christian or moslem,and you will be obstructing our freedom to life so back of and let them learn life the way they want,decently or not because at one point they will learn to do things right either with regret of not. You mean learn life by influencing the naive ones? what is the use of wearing cloths? please remain naked in your rooms and not public. why are some PARTS of the body called PRIVATE? please be critical in your reasoning. [quote author=Lil'Barbie Boo]OGA keep quiet[/quote]Madam sorry it is against your business...look for a more moral business. sorry ehh, i feel your pain  i just viewed your profile, with your details, replies to posts, the kind of posts you have replied, i think i know why you are nairaland. i wont say that for now. you are under watch. i just pity you. |

How will they continue to use thesame members of staff and they think there will be change? sack all the officers that head operations and leave the casual workers because they are innocent. sack all the previous ogas @ the top and employ people with your view. Remove the formal bad heads. This is my own opinion o. |
