The funny thing is the minister is right. It can be done, and it is done in many countries but it cannot be possible in Nigeria. Nigeria is not safe or enlightened enough to make it happen. I know people who do just that and they make a killing. The government needs to create an environment that is conducive before talking about tourism. Security being one of them.

If you are a private school owner, have you forgotten that you take your approval and license from the State Govt through the Min of Edu? You will be compelled to offer it as a compulsory subject.

It is not mandatory for you to have your school in SW. You can take it to any other region or even sambisa forest, where the Min of Education will not enforce the language on you
Like I said; what you should clamour for you won't.

FamilyRe: 9 Things Teenagers Don’t Want To Hear From Adults by banmee(m): 11:25am On May 05, 2016
Ekiti360:
I guess it comes with the territory, but every adult in the world seems to think they have some secret knowledge that will crack the youth. They attribute their expertise on the subject of teenagers to an accumulation of years and experiences.


Apparently, the magic of time has given them a compete and all-knowing understanding of how we should feel, think and behave during all hours of the day. However, all beliefs should be challenged – and I for one enjoy setting grown-ups straight.

Here are 9 things that make teenager like me cringe.

“Listen to your parents; they’re always right.”

Wrong. There is only one Yoda. Everyone else in the universe is bound to be wrong sometimes. I know it might surprise some adults to hear this, but us, teenagers are not always angsty, impulsive and inexperienced. Sometimes we know even better than you do – Give us a chance.

“This should be the best time in your life. Enjoy it.”

So… You’re saying that my life has peaked at 15? Excuse me if I refuse to believe that. I will enjoy all the world has to offer on my own terms, thank you very much. Otherwise I might become a teenage runaway, and you wouldn’t really like that would you?

“Wait till you get to the real world.”

Okay. Hold on, just one second. Are you saying that this is in fact NOT the real world? Hold up. Is this the matrix? Did we somehow transport to Narnia without me knowing?

Sure, I may not be working year-round in an office, but Algebra isn’t exactly a walk in the park. My life is real enough: a package deal that’s all inclusive with drama, responsibility and obligations. Don’t belittle me.

“You’re a teenager. This is just a phase.”

How can you possibly predict the future? Are you some sort of psychic being who sees into the future? If so, why don’t you tell me how to fix this world. I am currently in a process of creating an identity for myself that isn’t defined by the people around me. This phase might just stick. Even if it doesn’t, please just let me experience it without constant judgment.

Hint: The more you hate it, the longer it will last.

“Why don’t you tell me anything anymore?”

There are two possible explanations for our ‘lack of communication’:

Explanation 1: All I’ve done in the last few weeks is school work and watch re-runs of my favorite TV shows. I apologize for not giving you a play-by-play, but there is simply nothing of significance for me to be telling you.

Explanation 2: You’re being nosy and it’s annoying. NO amount of torture will make me spill my secrets.

“I was your age once too, you know.”

Yes, of course you were. There is no denying that you are in fact a human being. I understand the progression of time, but just because you were a teenager once does not mean you can relate to my experiences or how I’m currently feeling. Even if you have gone through similar things (in the past), you have been tainted by the knowledge of adulthood.

Sorry, not sorry.

“I’m your friend.”

Nope. Not gonna happen. Don’t get me wrong, I like you and all… but we are not friends. I think that comes with the whole power dynamic of the family.

If you give me rules, you are not my friend.

If you make me wake up in the morning, you are not my friend.

If you make me wash the dishes, we are DEFINITELY not friends.

Please, stop.

“You don’t know what’s best for you.”

Okay… and who does? You? Please refer to ‘Things Teenagers Don’t Want To Hear’ numbers one through seven. I know what I want. I know who I am. Don’t set limitations on what I should do or who I should be. It’s not yourselves.

“Grow up.”

Look here parents, we are growing up whether we like it or not. We love you (ever so dearly) and absolutely appreciate the unconditional support. Sometimes I think you forget that the mistakes we make are actually the perfect way for us to learn right from wrong. It’s a process, be patient.

Why do some parents take pride in their children not being able to speak their language?

Can they be more British than the British or more Spanish than the Spanish or more French than the French?
here's the problem with you people. The things you should be clamoring for you don't, but the things that don't make sense you'll be all for it. As long as i can remember, yoruba as a subject has always been on the curriculum in public schools, so why bring up the legality now? And, if i own a private school, you cannot tell me the subjects i should teach which is why it is private.

It is terrible info because it is not true. The only reason vehicle in Nigeria tyres burst is because drivers in Nigeria wear their tyres out to the point of exhaustion. The information about your tyre's recommended gauge level is on you tyre not your door because all tyres are different.

We haven't heard anything bad about her naa
Nigerians are the most hypocritical set of human beings alive today. Obama smoked marijuana while in havard, i repeat, while in havard and today he is the president of the USA. Nigerians don't have their priorities in order. These are the same people who jump up for joy when murder is committed and are here criticizing cigarettes. Ok.

CareerRe: We Earn More Than Bank Workers –FCT Cab Drivers by banmee(m): 10:42am On May 04, 2016
Emmaesty:
Such hasty generalization.

5000x22 working days equals 110,000.

Assuming he works everyday, 5000x30 = 150,000.


Meanwhile for permanent staff, Diamond bank pays 247k, Access bank pays 230, Gtbank pays 209k, Stanbic pays 180k.

With a bank job, there's career growth. But as a cab driver, there's little growth as most of them remain in one spot until they are old and can no longer see in the dark.
Lol....Stop trying to make sense. It does not work in Nigeria.

Do you have proof of what you are saying? Nigerians need to stop saying anything that comes to their head. It is a good thing she is being sued. All she has to do is counter sue Teebillz for saying she slept with numerous men.
