YoungestPapa:
I laughed out loud when I read your reply.
Have you heard of the Gleeson map of 1892, that's the real map of earth before the owners of this world changed it to a globe.

On the map, point A is Australia and point B is the USA...it clearly shows that all flights to the USA from Australia should go east. It cannot happen otherwise.

You have just proven a flat earth to be true.
BTW, the United nations logo is also a correct depiction of the Gleeson map, which all represents the map the earth.

I have flown due west to U.S from Australia, using Qatar airways, so I don't understand what you are talking about

This is not a topic worth a reply but I'd humour you.
The photo below is what a theoretical flat earth would look like.
If the earth looked like this, then a plane which takes off from Australia to fly to California cannot fly eastwards. That would lead it to space. But we know that planes leave Sydney and fly eastwards to U.S all the time.

You are right when you feel useless with your phd, but not for the reason you think.
Stay sane bro

AguluLiar:

Now that I am aware that we have baby gorillas in Nigeria, this bill should be used to clean the yansh of baby gorillas, otherwise,we are ready. If this bill should pass, we are very ready for it 100%.
If I resided in the SE for 10 years for instance and I automatically became an indigene of SE, and then I wanted to buy a choice land in the SE and they will be telling me that the land is an ancestral land or community land and cannot be sold to a stranger and then somebody will now take me to one land beside a shrine and ask me to buy it, that's when they will know that I can break bottle on somebody's head. If you are pushing to become an indigene in another man's house, you had better think it twice now. If the bill is passed, we don't want to hear that Fulanis cannot be given free lands for ruga in the SE. Because many Northerners are married to Ibos and have been living in the SE before independence.

now that you have vomited your frustrations on SE, do you feel better now?

Tranquillity360:
Confused boy contradicting himself just in few minutes.


Nah still you ekuke said below When I told you I am proud Igbo from Asaba delta state 👇 👇 👇 👇





With above every reasonable person now know you are from that tribe



Umu ekwensu 🤣🤣😂😂

I was about to say the same thing

ivandragon:
Let the impunity continue.

Let those who support impunity continue to do so.

But one day, no matter how long it takes, the tables will turn.

The apc has brought governance at the centre to its lowest ebb in Nigeria’s post colonial history. Never has the country had it this bad in all ramifications - from a worsening economic situation for the masses to blatant impunity and disregard for due process.

They curiously believe Nigeria would cease to exist once they leave power. Even if it takes 40 years, one day, we will reply all their questions

helinues:
Be bold to mention names

yoruba. Wetin happen

The people from the other part of southern Nigeria has so dealth with Ijaw people eh...
They frustrated the first ever Ijaw president Jonathan out of power with 'coordinated opposition'.
Today they have frustrated the first ever Ijaw governor of present Rivers state out of power.

But in the midst of all these, guess which tribe Ijaw hates the most in Southern Nigeria...

Lol.
Ijaw sha

Kachara?

Mynd44:
You must be a proponent of the now popular saying "school na scam"

capital punishment derives from Caput which means head.
It means decapitation. You go school so? You that single-handedly ruined nairaland with infantile bigotry in the name of moderating opinions

frankson1:
The relocation is perfect and the right call to make since it's not Sanwo Olu and Wike

shut up bro, Markets are relocated in Lagos all the time without much Ado. This particular market has been in the pipeline for relocation since 1999 and has nothing to do with your petty tribal shìt politics

owobokiri:
Mbah, he is good with his project delivery.. But totally terrible with understanding the undercurrents that determines national politics in Nigeria..

Why? Because he is not in Wike's camp? APC urchins have taken Nigeria back to 1980s politics that we prayed our way out of

madridguy:
Impressive, do you think since the Nigerian bargain for 100K is enough reason for him to start stealing building materials?

Well no, but employers should put a system in place. It should not depend on how honest employees are. In Qatar, I know an Indian HR who left workers in the payroll long after they were sacked and was cashing the cheques until he was caught

madridguy:
Then what is happening at home? A construction supervisor will be diverting cements, iron rods and other materials to his own site.

The same company will pay a Nigerian construction supervisor 100k a month and pay his Indian counterpart 800k a month plus accommodation and transport then turn around and act outraged when Nigerian guy steals cement.

Ruke1989:
The government carries all the blames for being inept, outdated and out of touch with what obtains in other countries. Both the executive and legislative arms are to blame.

Other countries force companies to employ locally by putting regulations to that effect in place. That's why Canada issues LMIA and UK has COS to companies before they are allowed to bring in workers from abroad. The govt over there set up agency to scrutinize companies before giving them such certificates and penalties any company that violates it. You cannot get a job in Canada from outside Canada except you have a skill that no one in Canada has or no one in Canada who has the skill showed interest in that role after 3 months advert - this is the regulation put in place by Canadian government and implemented by Canadian agencies.

The issue is that our politicians are too local and busy playing Igbo Vs Yoruba, Christian Vs Muslim politics that they don't have time to read, think or implement what other countries have implemented which benefit their citizens. As long as Nigeria doesn't require companies to have a certificate of sponsorship before bringing anyone from abroad and there are no stringent laws put in place by the sick national assembly, companies will keep going abroad to employ staff and even pay them higher than Nigerians.

Do you know the law in Dubai makes it mandatory for companies to pay Dubai citizens the highest, followed by Europeans, then the lowest goes to Africans and Asians for any given job role. You people don't know the power of law making and execution agencies that's why you expect people to behave well where there is no law in place

I agree

madridguy:
The issue is always annoying going around seeing Asians taking over our jobs. We can blame the government, the ministry of labour and other agency but I think we Nigerians need to change our way..

Sincerely our attitude towards work is nothing to write home about.
I have not been to Oyinbo country before but from their movies, facebook or other social media you will know how committed they are to their work.

Many of us are not committed to our work, you will be hearing words like " I cannot kill myself jare " " You too carry work for head " and other funny words.

We are committed. Are we not the same people overseas studying and working, overworking ourselves?
We just have low national esteem

Greenlandz:
All blames goes to federal government. If they had provide jobs for the masses all these nonsense wouldn't have happened

I blame the government yes but not for the reasons you have said. Government do not provide jobs. Private sector does. Government's role is to create the macro and micro economics that can stimulate growth.
I blame the government however for granting work visas to foreign workers without asking the employing companies why it must be a foreigner. Why not a Nigerian

A country of around 200 million with high unemployment rate curiously has a lot of Asians and Arabs working in strategic companies.
My flight with Air peace the other day was filled with foreign crew members and flight attendants. As in they couldn't hire exclusively local flight attendants?
I also hear Dangote is filled with Indians.
This is sad. We have a ministry of Labor that has not done anything else other than negotiate poor minimum wages for striking unions.
A ministry of labour that cannot reform the rules around hiring foreign workers because the minister of Labor is busy looting funds meant for his ministry.

Asians and whites see us as fools and we prove them right any chance we get

I am as confused as you reading this my post
Wetin concern Igbo say Tayo, Moshud and Akin dey fight over who go eat fulani nyash pass

aswani:
They had a choice, they learnt their ancestral language and they learnt Yoruba.

You cannot put Yoruba on the same level as other languages in ala Yoruba, same in al'igbo, you cannot put igbo in the same level as other languages.

hausa is taught in some Enugu schools where a teacher is available. Children should be able to choose which language to write in waec not the one forced on them because of parochial interests and stupid ethnicism.
Igbo is taught in schools in Abuja and kano. Yorubas are setting a lot of bad precedents in this country. Will there be a time yorubas will start setting good precedents?

aswani:
I grew up in an area with kids of different ethnicities, they all spoke Yoruba fluently as well as the language of their ancestry.

Those I went to University with from Lagos, we all spoke Yoruba most of the time and those from non-Yoruba towns used to go for their student development union meetings.

Nobody died because they learnt Yoruba, stop being silly.

should they not have a choice?

In my experience, people love your success if they stand to benefit from it. Friends and family who you spend on would on the balance of probability keep wishing you more wins.
Those outside your circle of spending, who don't see any benefits from your success are going to be envious.

chopnaira:
Is Yoruba being taught in Anambra or Abia? What makes those two states different?

lagos is multicultural ogbeni. It was capital for 150 years. You guys know how to piss people off. So you want igbo and hausa kids to be learning Yoruba? So they shouldn't have options? Is anyone asking you to teach igbo in ogun state?
