Aladelokun: Just explain to me how i can also apply to write those exams and just get a scholarship in the U.S too to study medicine. Actually, am a medical student in naija too(a beginner). I will be expecting your honest reply @ any1 who wana help

Go to collegeboard.org and register for sat or register through their affiliates in Nigeria and then look for schools that offer scholarships to international students and when filling your SAT form, you input 4 schools of your choice and you're good to go.

InvertedHammer:
Most importantly, try to steer away from jobs that involve public speaking.

No matter how good you are, white folks are blessed with the gift for gab.

No matter how qualified you may be, they will use your accent to overlook your qualifications.

I am not saying that it is not doable, but the obstacle may be too much for your patience.

Be ready to start from the bottom: fast food, security guard, nursing aide.

And to answer the age long question(?), I have never met a Nigerian that washes corpses for a living

I think that's the reason why Babyosisi advised someone going into media to look elsewhere because of the accent baggage.

Akin Alabi is directing the next one

I've been hearing of Ikenga TV and can't wait for it to kick off. btw, is it gonna be on terrestrial or cable TV?

I'll really like to see the Algorithm used in these rankings cos some things just don't add up. I see no reason why the Super Eagles should not be ranked number one in Africa.

Sincere 9gerian: None of the links confirms a bank robbery incident. There is a difference between robbery incident, robbery involving a banker/bank staff and bank robbery. Look at topic again.

Then Peter Obi is an idiot. So, robbery does not count again except it's a bank robbery? Most politicians in NIgeria are 419 and i'm not surprised.

It's another source of income for these agencies. It's a shame really.

Ajibel: Imagine the Nonsense our boiz played today in Akure... 10 man Enyimba went down. By 2goals

*unfollows thread till next season***

Lol I guess it's until next time. So,, what did pillars play?

First of all we need to start encouraging sporting in Anambra state. Everything mustn't be about business and trading. We need a world class stadium somewhere in Anambra.

Hausa and Islam have become two indivisible elements such that these days, the two have been intertwined and it can be difficult telling what's of Hausa or Islamic origin. But yes, some Hausas have native names.

Abu Mikey:


Your Pricelist tho?

Some are too expensive,while some are too cheap for their designated section.

It all depends on the traffic of a particular section.

CFCfan: Russia qualified ahead of them. Portugal had a topsy-turvy campaign, drawing with the likes of Northern Ireland at home and Israel away.

O just hope they qualify sha. They're the second team i support after Nigeria.

Did i get this one right?

Are you preparing for the olympics? You have to learn to control your anger.

And pls, what's Portugal doing in the playoffs? Who qualified ahead of them?

I really want to commend Poland for a good job. Though they lost, they really played the English boys who play one of the most un-entertaining football ever. Na the English team wey wan win world cup be this?

speedyboi: Wetin you come dey wear ? banana leaves??

Na only traditional cloth dey market?

semid4lyfe: Isn't the solution to this as easy as loading the N250 so your account can be cleared and you're debt free

I think what he means is that he's not owning.

They're mostly about entertainment and a little education. Though i seldom watch reality shows these days.

pompori king: Then select players who didn't play ethiopia game naa...its a friendly oga try out new players

And when he loses, you'll start calling for his head. Btw, this is not the time to try a whole set of new players cos the world cup is at hand and this present team have to play competitive friendlies to get themselves prepared.

This just shows that even Keshi was not intimated about the friendly match cos if he was he would have advised against the date. I don't know why the 1diots that run our football will not get their heads out of their asses and do things the right way. Keshi is the coach of the team and he needs to be carried along at all times.

Radoillo: When I was living in Port Harcourt, I interacted with Kalabaris and Okrikas. I never got the impression that they saw themselves as Ijaws. In fact, I never got the impression that the Kalabaris and Okrikas saw themselves as one people to begin with...

That's Rivers state for you. It's not limited to those supposed Ijaw communities. While living in PH, my church had translators for virtually every village in Rivers state. Apart from the Igbo translator, they had for Ikwerre, Ndoni, Etche, Bonny, Opobo, Kalabari, Okrika, Tai(Ogoni), Eleme(Ogoni), Khana(ogoni), Gokhana(ogoni) etc. They all see themselves as different people though some may form a common front when it's time to address a bigger issue that goes beyond their locality or state.
