Seriously, this team and their coaches deserve a lot of flogging..I don't understand how there will be no single creative player in a team. Fine the players seems to be hardworking but its a case of being busy without any result..... From the defense to the strikers, they lack composure, their passes are predictably sideways, creativity is so dead that we have not scored from open play since the Qatar game.
The coaches are doing nothing from the bench and I think this tournament is over for them....
Pls when is the premier league starting, let me start my countdown

NYSC / Re: Buhari Signs Bill Stopping NYSC From Posting Engineering Graduates To Schools by Arelyn: 11:10pm On Mar 22, 2019
A good initiative but the main problem is indigenous Engineering is dead a long time in the country. Engineering produces one of the largest group of graduates in Nigeria each year but you ask the question, which company is going to absorb them.

I don't really blame NYSC for posting Engineering students to schools most times because there is only a handful of indigenous engineering firms in Nigeria that can take more than one graduate engineer.

FG needs to find a way to develop the capacity of indigenous companies across all the fields of Engineering, then more space will be created for graduates to fill and that way they will be engaged better.

Politics / Re: Temitope Olatoye Sugar Dies In UCH After He Was Shot by Arelyn: 9:49pm On Mar 09, 2019
So "SUGAR" fit die

I thought he is above death with the number of lives that were lost as a result of his thug life. He killed many student( both cultist and innocent) at FCE Osiele, Abeokuta

He was so powerful( diabolically) and connected( politically) that no one could do him any harm with all the atrocities he committed

So its true that he who kills by the sword will die by the sword.. Nobody can cheat death when it is time

Education / Re: Summit University Offa, Kwara (Islamic) In Pictures by Arelyn: 2:40pm On Feb 02, 2019
So funny what we think education is in Nigeria. Our first thought is a giant structure with a acres of lands but we neglect the content. Most universities in Europe has not more than a single building and yet the quality of education is better than our "mother of all universities" in Nigeria.

I know many Nigerians will die to get a visa to study in a block of classroom like this....Our idea of education needs to change and it should not be about structure but content

Many months ago there was "show us your school trend" online. I couldn't help it but laugh when I see alumnus of different universities bashing each other but they all fail to understand that in terms of content received from any of the school, they are on the same level.

Some alumnus will argue that they have many professors in their department, but ask them what the prof has made them to achieve, they start counting the stars in the sky. Even the profs are barely known outside the shores of Nigeria ( except for a few)

For you to be a standout student of any university in Nigeria, you must have put in your own amount of knowledge seeking sojourn.

I care less about the container of a product, but the content is the ultimate. Coca-cola has change his container a few times, but can they dare to change the content even for a day?

]Lol.
My friend works in a multi-national organisation here. Anytime him and his has to go for business trip, his own visa will be denied. Painful thing is that some of his colleagues are from other African countries: Ghana, Rwanada, Cameroun etc

Here is a lil extract from our conversation this morning.

Many will never know how bad Nigeria is, until they live Nigeria. While they are inside the country, it's okay to shour “Sai Baba” and collect 30k stomach infrastucture. It is well o
.........................................................................................

With due respect, your friend may be doing something wrong or he has done some wrong things prior to his visa application. He might be under some banned list sort of which he is unaware of as the embassy don't announce it.

All things been equal, there is little to no reason why any embassy will fail to grant him business trip based on his passport and his nationality

There will be some salient things he is not aware of

We need to understand some things before jumping to conclusions as Nigerians. We are always in a haste to propel our own image downwards.

The Henley passport index is not a measure of the strength or economic prowess of country rather it is the ranking of passports based on how many countries such passport can access without Visa.

The visa free agreement between countries are direct implication of factors such as Geographic region, Trade agreements, population, susceptibility to communal diseases, wealth, colonial heritage, Freedom, Education, Terrorism and the likes

So the fact that chad or Ghana is ahead does not mean our passport is useless. Countries like Japan and Singapore are ahead of the likes of USA, UK etc and I don't think that makes them better.

Career / Re: Mechanical Engineering Or Computer Science? by Arelyn: 11:17am On Oct 17, 2018
Reading through the comments I found out that they are all passing out the same cliche information like "follow your heart", which has been overused since the beginning of creation....
Guy, let me tell you the honest truth, Engineering is as good as dead in Nigeria and that's because the country is not indigenously industrialized. The supply of engineering graduate far outweighs demand and that's another reason why competition is stiff and when you eventually get the job, you are paid peanuts.
Computer science is the bae of the future as people do say but I don't think that is in Nigeria because we are still literally many thousands years behind the real digitalization the western world is living in. Is it the same computer science students that are still being thought pascal, fortran, cobol etc in our universities you are talking about or another.
I don't want to sound as a pessimist but I will encourage you to go for computer science and don't rely on your university education rather start doing professional certifications. I think this will make you highly marketable even before you graduate.
If you really want to make impact and earn well, computer science certifications are the way forward, all you just need is to determine which branch you want to focus on and if you need more information, you can contact me privately
This is my advice as a trained engineer in Nigeria but now a professional cybersecurity expert in a major country.
And for some that may feel bad about the truth, facts don't give a Bleep about how you feel

Health / Re: Nurse Seen Taking Lollipop In An Emergency Room While Attending To A Patient by Arelyn: 11:29am On May 10, 2018
What I hate most in this country is how we blindly support our own ignorance. We have a lot of people that know nothing, yet they still think they are the wisest.
Give it to this medical professionals, especially the ER team. Some of them work their ass off to ensure sanity and safe lives in our numerous hospitals to the point that the have little or no time to themselves. If anyone has been a victim of Emergency, and you will see how the health team tries as much as possible to safe lives, you will know a lollipops, biscuit etc might just be enough for them also not to become an Emergency patient.
Let me ask one question..
I guess most people don't know what it takes when you don't appreciate this people enough, what you get are the angry nurses you see in most hospitals.

Education / Re: Please Help I No Longer Understand Things If I Read by Arelyn: 9:01am On Jan 15, 2018
Melison:
I got admitted recently into a university, and av resumed lectures but my problem is that I fail to understand all I read or study and even if I understand a little it evaporates in no time
Pls any advice??

This is my advice as someone that passed through same situation. What is happening to you is not that you are being bewitched or your brain has any issue but it's just the realization of a change in the scope of what you are now studying.. I experienced the same thing in my 100level days and these are what I did
1. I reduced social freedom and fun by making myself realize that the main reason am in school is because of my academics
2. Limit religious meetings and responsibilities.
3. Ensure you have enough rest before studying and remember what works for you, won't work for your friend
4. Don't attempt to crash read as you use to do in secondary school, it won't work here because of the complexity of what you will be studying. So have some consistency in your reading.. "4hrs everyday is enough to succeed in university for any course"
5. Inculcate the habit of extracting vital information from your course material.. This will make information to be assimilated smaller
6.Try to have at least two contact with each course before exam( first contact is when you read to extract the material and the second contact should be with your extracted information)
7. For every 1 HR you intend to read, read for 45mins, take water and relax for the next 15mins and repeat the cycle( you can get glucose and mix it with water when going to read, you will observe that your brain is refreshed for the next reading cycle)
8. Pray( you will observe the steps from 1-7 is all about work, add prayer to it and thats how God crowns ones effort and not by praying(faith) without work)

Tested and trusted.....

In as much as freeze can go off grid at times, he seldoms speak the truth. Some pastors gave people like freeze the reason to castigate them and I believe if you are good with words and overlook worldly things, it's takes just a bit of brainwashing to have your bills settled as a pastor or Islamic cleric.
Oruma was brainwashed by his pastor and same left his condition to degenerate to this level...its a callous way of life

Business / Re: Why Most Uneducated People Are More Successful In Business - Johnspeak Uwangue by Arelyn: 11:46am On Dec 18, 2017
OP, you think education is what makes a business successful? ..there is no standard or assurance that your level of education will take your business to lofty heights, what you only need to succeed in any business is focus and flexibility with ideas

So, this write up is a big fallacy to me and its borne out of a converse Generalization. I have seen educated people that are successful business wise. OP, wait a sec, what do you think most uneducated people will venture into if not for business.. so there is a high number of non-educated fellow going into business and Dats why it's more pronounced compared to educated fellows that have a wide array of opportunities to them. Starting up a business is not a priority, when you are educated
