Everyone is making sense here but one thing still stands:

[size=14pt]A programmer with over 10 years experience in java will not jump ship just cause C# is now open source.[/size]

I hear a lot of how good c# is, but no thanks.

You've said it all dude.
Nobody is going to port a stable program because C# is now open source. Microsoft came too late to the party.

Lots of enterprise applications are written in java and they will have to be maintained for a long time.

I have laminated my certs oh because I can't afford to have any erroneous alterations/defacing on them. BTW can someone tell us why those foreign establishments reject laminated certs?

Because you've altered the certificate and that renders it invalid.

Do not laminate your certificate.
There should be a disclaimer on the certificate that says any "any alteration renders this certificate invalid"

Laminating a certificate is altering the certificate.

Hipocrites? Hmmm. Did you even bother to read my last paragrapgh?
You call me hipocrites but you support the spending of millions on material stuffs
Wao ! Smh............take care of your self

Dude you are big hypocrite.
The bible says “One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much."

If you had her kind of money, you'll do worse.

emiraty:
You really feel you just made a point?
Feed a child? Really?
You are so dumb that you don't know monthly subscrption for browsing is so cheap right ? So is daily?

Yep 3m is money to me quite all right. I really don't mind anyone giving me that money as I can touch lots of peoples' lives with it.

I pity you, you have a hard heart but you don't know that yet which is the worst part.

Throw your stupidity won't dignify you .
By the way, you don't wanna know the charities or donation4 I involve my self with. So, when I comment, I know exactly what am angry over.

Mind you, am from a family that can enable me buy a bag of 4m but am not wicked to that extent, yes I term it wicked ness

So please save that crap bout. 3m being change, okay? If you know what to do with such money that will add value to many you will shut up and get a life.

To you subscription is cheap but to the little dude who can't feed this night, that's big money.


Hypocrties like you are the worst kind of human beings.

emiraty:
And so what? Who bloody cares if her family is rich? If the source of money is clean she will dare not be wicked enough to burn 3M on a dress, okay?

No sane person who worked hard for his money burns it uselessly!

Clearly, you are not understanding our point, she could have save many and fed many with that amount!

Dude 3M might be big money to you, to some people, its change. As far as she/ her husband worked for the money, they are entitled to spend the money the way they deem it fit.

Oh by the way, you know the money you spent browsing can feed a child?

So in essence, one cannot be an effective politician and still be decent especially in Nigeria. I am almost tempted to agree with you. However, I disagree with you when you say the best way to get good leaders is to become good followers. The fish rots from the head and those in leadership position have the instruments of power to make things happen. That is why all over the world, people have to remove bad leaders before they can make genuine progress.

It is almost impossible to have a bad leadership with the majority its followership enjoying prosperity.

When i said we have to be good followers, i meant we have to start the change from outside leadership positions. We the followers have to stop voting based on sentiments but on values. It is only then that decent people will be encouraged to enter politics.

I do realize that this is a chicken and egg problem but in my opinion, getting the follower ship right is the first and most important step.

maclatunji:
I find this to be a very interesting situation. Many professionals have this problem when they try to enter politics. The question is: if all the decent people stay back, where will we get good leaders from?
The second question is: can you really enter politics as a decent person and stay so till the end?
A fascinating conundrum.

Can you enter politics a decent person and stay to till the end? Yes but in Nigeria, you wouldn't win any election.
In a country were tribalism and stomach infrastructure takes precedence over ideology, it becomes difficult for professionals to enter into politics especially if you don't want to get stained.
The best way to get good leaders is to become good followers.

SirShymex:
Celebrating lack of achievement and mediocrity again, are we? - it's a Nigerian thing

I honestly don't know the significance of being the head of OPEC, when whatever oil Saudi Arabia and Gulf States decide to pump, is what regulates/determines oil prices.

Rather than wasting time, money, lobbying energy for an inconsequential position, this frog-eyed woman would have served the country better by getting the PIB passed and implemented. And probably get refineries fixed.

These fvckers always have their priorities messed up!

We need to find a way to cure Nigerians from mediocrity!!!

If this is all they found, then all ever did the so called surveillance for two weeks should be fired.
PS: were are the cloned PVCs?

mikeansy:
You tell me?

That's the kind of chaos your Tambuwal is creating!

Hence why wise heads like Falana should be calling out Tambuwal for trying to circumvent the law but unfortunately Falana is trying to sound popular by conviniently avoiding a difficult debate!

Tambuwal isn't creating any chaos or trying to circumvent the law. The speaker clearly believes there is a faction in the PDP and there's a court judgement to back the speaker. Anyone who feels aggrieved should approach a court to declare the speaker's seat vacant.
The idea that "Falana is trying to ound popular by conviniently avoiding a difficult debate" is laughable. The dude knows its not in his place to judge whether there is a faction in the PDP or not.

mikeansy:
There is a court injunction saying there is no division in PDP

This is another ruling that says there is a faction. So which one should we follow?

mikeansy:
If Femi Falana believes a provision so clear in the constitution still requires interpretation or pronouncement of the court before it takes effect then Falana should have said so in his own write up!

Unless you are claiming to be a mind reader you can not know exactly why Falana chose to ignore this important part of the debate!

The constitution says a person can defect if there is division in his party and Tambuwal has defected based on the division plaguing the Sokoto state pdp so what do you want Falana to write?

mikeansy:
It is unfortunate that Femi Falana conveniently dodged the vexed issue of section 68 and whether Tambuwal should remain speaker or not but conveniently carried on referring to Tambuwal as speaker.

I don't also know whether Femi Falana is not in tune with the chronology of events because Tambuwal has withdrawn his case about the withdrawal of his security aides but Falana made reference to this case curiously.

Femi Falana is smart to know that only a court of law can pronounce the speaker's seat vacant.
Until the then, the constitution of Nigeria regards Aminu Tambuwal as speaker.
PS: in case you don't know, the constitution allows for defection.

Seriously 60k for a degree and people are complaining?

I don't get it.

Data centres are supposed to be obscured from the public.
Expecting a sign post in front of a data centre is like expecting a bank to leave it's vault open.

majekdom2:
you really don't understand. Oil prices dropped in those countries because they don't import... That's so easy to comprehend. We produce about 2 million barrels/ day ...which sells at a lower price. You will be importing not at the price the company you importing from sells to their citizens but at a different price. Ok which has to go up.Brent crude oil was averaging just under $109 a barrel for the first six months of the year, and by September it was down to about $95 for the month.

It was at $85.23 a barrel in early Asian trade on Tuesday, meaning that refiners that bought cargoes as recently as September are sitting on losses of about $10 a barrel relative to current spot prices.

The price of refined products in Asia has mirrored the drop in crude, with Singapore gasoil dropping from $110.15 a barrel on Sept. 30 to $98.10 on Monday.

This means that a refiner who paid September prices for crude but is selling products at current prices is staring at substantial loss which has an effect on the export.

You are the one that doesn't understand. Oil prices have dropped and that has started a chain reaction along the value chain. unfortunately, the chain reaction did not get to Nigeria and that is were the problem is.

majekdom2:
oil don't trade in naira , it trades in dollars.

So what has that go to do with my post?

Lilimax:
I feel for Blessing.
US embassy could be so nasty sometimes during visa application.
ould advice you change the location for hour honeymoon after which you may re-apply.

Did you read the post at all?

Oil prices have dropped by about 30%
Price of PMS has also dropped in countries were we import from therefore subsidy paid since the decline of oil prices should have also dropped since the price of PMS has stayed the same in Nigeria.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — An Iranian company on Thursday displayed four brand new U.S.-made helicopters it purchased through third parties, offering them as proof that the country could evade international sanctions over its disputed nuclear program.

The display of the R-44 helicopters came during an air exhibition in Kish Island, in the Persian Gulf.

The four-person helicopters are manufactured by the California-based Robinson Helicopter Company.

Mahmoud Azin, the head of Iran's Helicopters Company, told the Tasnim news website that the helicopters were purchased at a marked-up price through "dealers" and can be used for both training and police air patrols. His company, which has some 25 helicopters, mainly serves Iranian oil sites.

Azin said the purchase showed that Iran could bypass U.S. and international sanctions. He said the international price of the four helicopters is about $2 million.

Iran's civil aviation agency announced the purchase of the four helicopters in September, saying they would be used for training purposes. It did not provide details on who sold the aircraft.

U.S. firms are largely forbidden from doing business with Iran and the Treasury Department has aggressively pursued violators. The U.N. Security Council has also imposed tough sanctions on Iran. It was not immediately clear if the purchase of the helicopters constituted a violation of either the U.S. or international sanctions.

The international sanctions stem from Iran's nuclear program, which Western nations fear is part of a covert effort to develop a weapons capability. Iran denies such allegations, insisting its nuclear program is entirely peaceful.

Iranian and international negotiators hope to reach a comprehensive agreement by Nov. 24 that would see Tehran curb its nuclear activities in exchange for sanctions relief.

If Iran could achieve this despite being under heavy international sanctions, what has the government/Army being doing?

Chylo:
Are you telling me what I know or what I dont know? The biggest expenditure is accommodation, and once you get a group of people to squat together, the rest na pure savings o. Some of those African cleaners you see mopping are millionaires in NAira o, in case you dont know.

Dude I lived in the UK and I know what I'm talking about. You are making the mistake of converting to Naira forgetting that those people don't pay bills in Naira.

Chylo:
O boi, make them no decieve you oo. Money dey jand nyafuu nyafuu.

Just try get job, even say na cleaner, then work multiple jobs. You will be making more than most people wey knot tie for Nigeria.

What about if you now get a good job nko? O boi, u don hammer o.
Then add to that, the good infrastructure, free healthcare, no bomb when you go market.

Guy, forget all this story joor.

(quick calculation for you: UK minimum wage = £6.50 per hour (i.e approx N1,770 per hour), lets say you work only 6 hours everyday, by the end of the month, you would have made above N300,000), now minimum wage is for the least kind of worker. SO do the maths yourself.

Dude you can't survive on minimum wage in the UK.


Op any educated person doing menial job in the UK entered the UK illegally.

jennykadry:
Why should she even bother about her mum? She needs to move on. If she gets married to a man whose mother is alive...no harm in taking her mother inlaw as her mother

She's moving on, she doesn't discuss educational stuff with the mum again.

You guys already had 8 years to "save" Nigeria

Please can anyone point out were the BBC "were having a go" at Nigeria?

jennykadry:
The worse part is when you notice that even the educated ones are the most oppressed. After all the money their parents spent on their okpolor heads to give them that which should empower them, they still choose to act like eediots.

My father's very good friend has only one daughter. She is in the UK doing her PHD. Do you know that this girl's father was discouraged by many of his friends not to encourage her to study for her PHD? Why? Because no man would want to marry her....she is too educated..let her get married .....bla bla bla

I know of a girl whose mother doesn't believe in education for the girl child. She recently finished her medical degree and is trying to specialize but her mum doesn't her.

codedflowz:
Boy boy boy

Back then I played Sega like my life depended on it
Mortal Kombat: used to pick this guy "Noob saibot"..used him to flog my friends then

Played Sunset riders too

And how can I forget international superstar soccer deluxe: "Reshoot, good header, goaall...lol"

This is my story bros.

Also there was a brick game phase in my house and the only person who didn't play was my mum. She hated the game so bad that she would seize my dads own but the next day he buys another one.

The first question i always ask such person is to show me a guy/girl they know who doesn't fear God.

The topic says plagiarism is a serious offence which is true but MR OP is doing someone's project for the person academic fraud/ impersonation?

" I am opposed to recycled material. In a nation of 120 million people we can do better than restrict our leadership to a small group"

This part says it all, and its what we must do as Nigerians to move forward.

If you are a programmer, a professional certificate is a waste of time.
