Education › Re: Education: A Curse Or A Blessing by agitator: 8:39am On Jul 07, 2017 |
amadiwati: I'm of contrary opinion. We make education to seem to be some kind of restrictions as you stated. First you note that education is far way beyond the walls of learning. Education opens us up to possibilities. It unveils your strength before us. Education Makes an engineer to KNOW that he/she can succeed in business. The key word in education is learning to know and it can come via any medium I agree with you to some extent. The problem is people trying to study courses based on expected pay and some even attending higher institutions in Nigeria just to obtain a certificate that will enable them earn a salary better than a secondary school certificate holder. The western world is advancing because people seek more knowledge in areas they are interested in and have passion. Example is the guy in the thread below who had so much passion for drawing that he even had to get beaten just to have the opportunity to see what the senior students were drawing . https://www.nairaland.com/3902975/etuk-unyime-draws-udom-emmanuelveragistonline: https://i2.wp.com/veragist.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/FB_IMG_1499265645941.jpg?resize=640%2C427
A young artist, Etuk Unyime recently drew a picture of the Akwa Ibom State Governor, Gov. Udom Gabriel Emmanuel, using the new made in Akwa Ibom pencil and the governor seemed really happy about it.

According to the artist who is from Akwa Ibom State, the drawing was done strictly with AKEES pencil and charcoal.

According to him, he did it in a bid to support made in Akwa Ibom products. “I am from Akwa Ibom and I support made in Akwa Ibom products.” He wrote.

The Pencil factory which is situated at Km 2, Uyo Etinan Road, Ekom Iman, Etinan Local Government Area in Akwa Ibom State is one out of the five pencil factories in Nigeria, and is owned by the Akwa Ibom State Government floated under the Akwa Ibom Enterprise and Employment Scheme (AKEES).

“When I was a kid, I had this burning passion for creative and challenging things. I remember stealing comic books just to draw the characters.”
“I still remember offering myself in secondary school to be flogged in front of SS3 students who were drawing so I could see what they were doing.”
“I remember being mocked at because I drew rubbish. I remember buying pencils upon pencils, watching tutorial videos in lecture room, skipping classes to go and practice how to shade well. I also remember getting a job and drawing up to 10 pieces only to select the best one out of it.”
Turns out his story is that of passion, hard work, perseverance and dedication.
We must say it’s a beautiful portrait.
SOURCE: http://veragist.com/news/artist-etuk-unyime-udom-emmanuel/ When people study what they are passionate about, there is nothing stopping them to excel. They can go to any lengh and are always looking for ways to improve, do things better.  |
Crime › Re: Gunmen Abduct 14 Passengers, Demand N1m Ransom Per Head by agitator: 8:29am On Jul 07, 2017 |
eprince21: Gunmen have reportedly kidnapped 14 passengers traveling to Port-Harcourt, Rivers State to Warri, Delta State. According to Punch, the news emerged on Thursday, July 7, but the incident occurred on Monday near Rumoji in Port-Harcourt. It was gathered that the gunmen attacked the bus their victims were traveling in and dragged them into a nearby bush from where they were taken into hiding. Subsequently, the hoodlums contacted the family of each victim and demanded N1 million ransom per head, the report said. "The gunmen have reduced the ransom to N100,000 for each of the passengers," a security source told the newspaper. "The 14-seater bus was travelling to Port Harcourt when the men waylaid it and kidnapped all occupants, including the driver."
Confirming the incident, the Commissioner of Police in Delta State, Mr. Zanna Ibrahim, said the incident occurred in Rivers State and not Delta State, his territory.

toffy333: Now get this straight I am neither an anti biafran nor a pro biafran agitator, i'm just a concerned Nigerian that want a better future for the unborn Generation. These are the few questions i have for both anti/pro biafran agitators and well meaningful Nigerians
1. Can biafra stand on it's own as a country?
2. What effect will biafra have on Nigeria if it is actualized?
3. What is going to be the relationship between biafra and Nigeria if actualized?
4. What will be the official language of biafrans? Is it igbo or English?
5. If biafra is actualized what is going be the status of the igbos currently in Nigeria prison and other countries?
Lastly,
6. As we all know that 50% of Nigerians arrested for drug trafficking in Nigeria and other countries are igbos, how did biafra as a country tend to curb and handle the situation? If you no get work, I don give you one now. Catch this spider. https://s18.postimg.org/gy8ofpqah/myre_1.gif |

greatiyk4u: Points to note from the post
Abdulaziz Yari is the sitting Governor of Zamfara state
He is an APC member, Governors Forum Chairman and a core Northern muslim
EFCC did not spare him due to ethnicity, religion or even party
His constitutional immunity protects him from arrest
The looted fund has been forfeited
Summarily, this one won't be seen as witch hunt even by core wailers like...........
Deduction here is that Buhari does not care about leaving the Yam with the goat, his concern is that the Goat has no legal right to touch the yam
God bless PMB for having the political will to touch the previously "untoucheables"
Sai Baba till 2023 If they are serious EFCC should present evidence to the state assembly to impeach him to face criminal charges. The US governor that sold Obama's senatorial seat, the money was seized and he was impeached, tried for his crimes, sentenced and is still in prison.  |

prospero5: God will punish whoever that put the nonsense immunity clause in our constitution.
a sitting MP in Tanzania was arrested last night for just a comment she made but here it is forbidden to arrest a 'big man'.
bode George was the very first near-big-man i heard was convicted. but for how long? they only used him to play on our collective intelligence.
until these people are paraded on national TV and jailed like the poor man who steals a neighbour's pot of soup, i won't believe in a better Nigeria.
Nigeria! O my Nigeria. Ignorance at its peak. Its in you. There is no immunity clause for Senators and House of Reps members. Why not arrest them? Immunity clause is to shield political office holders from Civil cases relating to actions taken while in office. Example, a state needs to do road expansion involving demolishing of some houses. If any owner refuse to accept any form of compensation, then the governor can exercise is executive powers to give order for the house to be demolished in the best interest of the state. If Fashola gives such order as governor, the individual cannot sue Fashola to court, but Lagos state government. However if Fashola confiscates a private property for his own use then the owner can complain to the law enforcement agencies, which will present the issue to the state assembly, and the assembly will impeach him to face criminal charges in court after investigation and confirmation of the allegations against him. How many past governors still have immunity? Why not prosecute them?  |

yarimo: please kindly post a section in the nigeria constitution that stated that the senate can disqualify any candidate, please look for a English teacher or a lawyer to tell you the difference between reject and disqualify in the nigeria constitution Since Nigeria there is no such section why did he send letter for them to confirm?  Oga it is "an English teacher" Secondly when someone is rejected it means automatic disqualification. Do you reject an applicant for employment and still employ him/her because the he has not been disqualified?  |
