Politics / Re: Delta State PDP Gubernatorial Primary: Live Update by amidel(m): 4:00pm On May 25, 2022
Iriruaga100:


Isoko was marginalize during this last primaries in delta south. They’re not going to vote okowa’s candidate.
The PDP leaders in Isoko are all with Okowa and this few individuals will dictate how the populace will vote. If Sheriff gets the ticket, Isoko will vote for him. Let me make it simple; Isoko will vote for whoever gets the PDP ticket in the General election. For this primary, they're all with Okowa.

Health / Re: Benue University Student Hangs Himself After His Father Reject His ₦50k Request by amidel(m): 8:07pm On Apr 25, 2022

A 20 years old man? Still dependent on his father for money? Are you for real?

Once the man give you roof and bed to sleep, oga, 18yrs is the mandate. That's what I owe my sons. Maybe 20years for the girl child.

Anyways, train up a child in the way he should go.

I have zero fvcks for the young man. He is not fit to be alive, that was why nature forced him to self-destruct.

As a man thinks... so he is.




My brother, see wetin him friend type for up @bolded grin

20years old still dey disturb him old man for 50k. For this Tech age. grin

Some of us speak from a place of privilege and think it's so for everyone. Now, you say in this "tech age" hope you are aware that there are amongst us young persons who do not have access to any device to enable them get into tech? The little they get from whatever jobs they indulge in is barely enough to feed. You're in Nigeria and I believe you know how things are now. Give the dead young man a break.

Do not be offended, just my opinion. We shouldn't judge this dead young man based on our own realities.

iLegendd:


1. You're ahead of you're peers for being in school and putting you hands in Cry.pto and FX. I wish I was into Cry.pto when I was in school. I'd suggest you focus more on Cry.pto than FX. Though, they have similar charts and technicalities. Merging it with academics means you should stop day trading and focus on HODL'ing.

2. The real world is not about grades, but what you know, can offer, and luck. In SS 2, there was this new student that joined us.

He was an art student and knows English more than English itself. When he speaks, everyone listens.

With this, everyone thought he was the most intelligent. In SS 3, he ended up as our SP and had great grades. Today, he is a teacher receiving just 50k per month.

This is way less than what my book, Lasticle (which costs 10k per PDF copy) makes in a month. That is 5 copies of the book = his salary. He can write books if he wants to, but he isn't into it.

So, the real world is not about grades, but what you can offer the world. Yes, good grades boost a man's ego and raises his confidence, but the real world cares only about what you can offer it even if you have poor grades.

3. If you want to learn how to say no, get hurt by people either online and offline, then transfer 10% of the anger on everyone and you'll master how to say no.

People have abused me on this forum, so I decided to stop replying DMs because these abusers are still the ones using different monikers to message me.

So, distribute 10%, not 50 or 100 of the pains people caused you on everyone and you'll develop the balls to say no.

All my years watching YouTube videos, I never clicked the dislike button of a video. I always feel those who click dislikes on people's good videos are evil and enemies of progress.

I published books on Amazon and I regularly check the reviews. Sadly, I have gotten demoralizing 1 star reviews just the same way I have gotten tons of 5 and 4 stars reviews. Guess what? The 1 star reviews hurt me, but not anymore.

I no longer care. How did I handle it? When I watch a YouTube video I don't like, I click the dislike button now without giving a f*ck if the owner gets hurt or not.

With time, I said to myself, "You dislike people's videos on YouTube, so deal with it when people dislike your books or your videos on YouTube too." Case settled.

Be you an asshole or a kind person, there is always someone who will like or dislike it.

4. While in school, I never felt inferior around other foreign students — in fact, I felt superior, but I do respect them when it comes to technology. Nigerian lecturer? That is funny.

Anyway, I'm glad he's honest. Do you think it's his calling to be a lecturer? No! He just wants to feed his 8 children and nothing more.

Yes, being a Nigerian and studying in Nigeria is demoralizing, but you just have to make do with what you currently have.

The funny thing about life is: when you feel confident about yourself, they'll say you're arrogant, but when you feel inferior, those same people that called the confident guy arrogant will call you Mr. Low Self-esteem and encourage you to be confident.

In summary, no matter how you feel about yourself or your country, someone will complain, so just do what will take you to the next level even if you're feeling inferior or confident about it.





Thank you so much for the reply. I'll follow these steps

1. Ways of Making money: [/b]Here, I've been learning about crypto currency but it's time consuming considering that I'm a student. I will have to give priority to one. I also trade FX and it's been good so far but I don't know how to merge this with my academics.

2. [b]Bad grades
: I study quite well but my last semester grades weren't as impressive as I expected but in all, we move.

3. I don't know how to say No when a person requests for something that I can do, even if it affects me. embarassed

4. Academics again: I belong to a group which contains students from the western world studying same course as myself. Most times when they're having discussions, I do contribute but I feel inferior based on what they say and the things they're taught over there... It makes me hate my school and department that at times I just feel like dropping out. Outdated syllabus/curriculum, wack practical sessions and all. Some weeks back, I went to meet a Prof in my department and spoke to him about Nano-chemistry but baba was mute just nodding his head and after everything he said "I don't know much about all these new things going on". I said okay and quietly took my leave. I feel I'm not gaining knowledge here, the little I know is from what I read about. I'm tired

Politics / Re: Only The Youths Can Save Nigeria, But They Are All In Prison by amidel(m): 4:08pm On Apr 25, 2021
This is awesome OP.
Lecturers who encourage mediocrity, lack of funds, no research. The government killed the confidence of the lecturers and they're just doing same to the students; It's garbage in garbage out..

We have been made to believe that getting a certificate from a tertiary institution is what will help us in the long run by our parents and guardians. And our fear oftentimes comes from not wanting to disappoint them. That's why we accept the rubbish from lecturers.


On another note, the fear of going against the norms and being considered a misfit is why we tolerate such bullsh!t and also remember that when you speak up, you will be left alone to bear the cross. #ENDSARS protest as an instance when certain persons had their bank accounts frozen(I can't say if it was frozen because of their roles in the protest).
And I believe you know that if you fight against the system, the system (those in charge of it now) will fight back and not so many persons are ready to fight this system.

If majority of the youths can agree to stand as one we can turn things around.
