Men should rise up and stop this sh*t going on.

No one is allowed to beat no one.

It is a fact that whoever starts trouble must be prepared for the consequences.

Whether man or woman. No preferences.

I hope the world hears me.

Whenever a lady tries to get violent with you as a guy, the best thing to do is to walk away from the heat of the moment.
What if she slaps the hell out of you as you walk away. You'll certainly be immediately nicknamed p**sy.

Don't mind my use of words.

What a silly post! Face the truth by telling men to step up. Any concerned person knows that the value of masculinity is fast declining. If not checked, women will exploit this weakness to their own advantage.
This post was a wake up call to men to exploit this new reality as quickly as they can.

Women have been seriously working towards this for years. Men didn't realize the extent of the damage until it has gotten very out of hand.

Now, men are waking up. That's the good news.

Foolish
There is only one way forward for mankind. Cooperation from the women.

Hoping on this is fast becoming a pipe dream.

We have prayed that you will change for the better but it seems as if our women are just getting started.

I hereby encourage men to refocus our expectations and begin to look for alternative means to our needs as quickly as possible.
RomanceThe Death Of Traditional Women by bettermike(op): 9:00pm On Jul 17, 2020
Marriage crashes are happening more these days because women have decided to abandon their traditional roles. (Cooking, cleaning, respect and making babies)

Women are now BECOMING Neo-Men. (SECOND MaN)

Men on the other hand seem to still maintain their status and still behave as expected.

Unfortunately, women will not realize their mistakes just like their ancestor (Eve). They are ready to run themselves down as long as they won't have to play second fiddle.

ADVICE TO MEN

It is time for 2020 men to wake up to this new reality and adapt fast.

Employ women to make your babies.

Employ women to cook and clean and take care of your surrogate kids.

Kill your emotional dependence on wife or girlfriend. Better still, love your self and your children.

Wake up! Women are hell bent on destroying themselves. Let's begin to improvise. Don't kill yourself trying to live according to societal expectations of staying in an abusive and cheating relationship. And eventually die in the hands of one jezebel.

NOTE:
If you however manage to stumble upon a traditional woman in this day and age, wife her fast You will join the lucky few.

Wish our men and the few remaining traditional women the very best.

Sorry but I don't get the bold. There was a reason for the lockdown in the first place and the campaign to stay at home. In China, people were actually locked in their own homes by their government.

I ask again, is the virus airborne? That's the only way you can justify that statement. Other than that, it's all in your imagination. It's not safer anywhere unless the safety precautions are taken seriously.

It's easier to seat orderly in a classroom some metres apart from one another than setting a perimeter in the market place where everyone is screaming at anyone and all safety precautions are entirely jettisoned including the use of facemasks which many now use as chin-masks.

While I'm not even in support of school resumption because I don't even plan to return to work soon, logic should prevail on this matter and not some cork and bull.

May I remind you that an average of 240 people die of cancer daily in Nigeria and 80,000 yearly. This is not a pandemic and is not getting necessary attention from the government but a virus that takes about 10 people daily on the average is taken like it would end the world tommorow because the western world is treating it as same. It just doesn't make sense at all. More people die of malnutrition, HBP, Lassar, etc but we panic because the west panics. What a shame.

The numbers you see daily are largely under-reported. People in their millions are living with the virus already and don't even know.

Well, good luck to the government and I hope they don't open up soon but keep paying me.
The cork and bull made perfect sense to me. lol.

Some people just come here to argue for the sake of arguing. The guy you quoted was up and about yesterday, yelling and yelling.

If only some people know how many millions of people will die if schools don't resume soonest.

It is easier to sit in your house compelling people not to go out when you have a means of income. At least, empathise for those who don't.

The government that knows better has decided better.

Nice one my brother. Thumbs up.

For someone who wants to be so obnoxious, you talk too much online . Your posting history is littered with your personal details. Your vices (eww), your multiple usernames, your real name (yep), your school, your phone number,your medical and marital issues (implied) etc. Just 5 minutes in your history have revealed your abject state (as well as your occasional attempts to rise above it; I give you that).

One or two schools? Do you know that there are close to 10,000 secondary schools in Nigeria? Bros, take it to the bank, you will have positive tests in at least 500 schools over the next few weeks. And for you to think a principal "worth his onions" can prevent students from infecting themselves or others shows that you are out of touch with how secondary schools in Nigeria operate. No matter how many guidelines, will you stop students from walking home together? Playing together? You may think it makes sense to just cavalierly blame principals for infections, but there is no power on earth that can stop students infecting others. That is what the Israel example shows us. You are also cavalier in implying some students should just write SSCE next year because of a stupid rush that I have already shown makes no sense. Isn't that cruel of you?


Everything you've said here is obvious to anyone who has followed this outbreak. I was was de emphasizing the kids because your initial post made it clear that you thought the main concern was about kids dying.
Mr man, do you know how many people have already been infected by coronavirus and have been healed? Without leaving their premises.

People with loss of smell and taste.

Corona will go round but it is not deadly as alarmed by Bill Gates and his wife.

I know that the population is now ready to confront this disease as it has gone round already.

ASUU is there, politicians are happy with the virus, Lecturers are not willing to return (50yrs and above) etc. My dear, it's inevitable
ASUU is a contaminated association that needs a new life. Those lecturers do not have the interest of education on their mind. Plus they keep dragging the entire tertiary education backwards willfully.

I know that one day this ASUU shit will end so that tertiary education can progress unhindered.

Psoul:
Well, I beliv you reacted without really understanding my stand there. Probably, u may be thinking that I was against the proposed protest by the teachers. I was never against it. What I meant was, instead of government trying to find a solution to them, they will rather resort to making things more difficult for them.

With the way government behave towards private school, instead of seeing the good things they are doing in the society; trying to restore the decaying education system, they will be giving them stringent conditions that will make their operations difficult.
I understand you now.

I also expect private business owners to have a rethink when it comes to electing Lagos governor in the next election.

A governor that secretly pays civil servants and gladly ignores private business owners and their workers.

I hope those civil servant votes alone will be enough to bring him back next time.

Most countries are having it tougher than Nigeria when it comes to covid. But they are looking for ways around it rather than locking their citizens at home in hunger.

Nigeria is fast becoming a failed state. Not because of lack of resources but lack of bright minds at leadership levels.

It is like we are being controlled by people 5times less intelligent as us.

Most people know what is right. Except the people at leadership positions.

This plays out regularly in the army where foot soldiers post Twitter videos telling their leader (buratai) how to stop leading them into destruction.

This same thing is happening here. Our state governor (Lagos particularly) as well as the federal government are making wrong and uninformed decisions everyday.

I begin to wonder. How the hell did we get to this disgusting point.
EducationRe: When UK Schools Will Open And How They Will Run by bettermike(op): 11:54pm On Jul 14, 2020
Summary:

Schools will resume in England in September 2020.

Attendance is compulsory

Students are to wear uniforms.

Classes will not interact with other classes

Head teachers should sanction students that refuse to attend school

Government would visit schools regularly to assess their level of compliance.

I hope our government can take a cue from this.
EducationWhen UK Schools Will Open And How They Will Run by bettermike(op): 11:49pm On Jul 14, 2020
Coronavirus: When will schools reopen?

When schools reopen fully in England in September, the government wants teachers to keep classes or whole year groups apart in separate "bubbles".

Who will be expected to go back?

Nearly all children of legal school age will be expected to return to class full-time in September to "start to reverse the enormous costs of missed education".

This includes those with special educational needs and disabilities, or who have been shielding during the pandemic.

Do I have to send my child back?

Attendance will be mandatory again from the beginning of the autumn term.

Head teachers will be told to follow up pupils' absence and issue sanctions, including fines in some cases.

How will the school day work?

Schools will be asked to return "to a broad and balanced curriculum," Education Secretary Gavin Williamson told the Commons.

They will be asked to minimise the number of contacts each pupil has during the day, by keeping classes or whole year groups apart in separate "protective bubbles" rather than practising individual social distancing.

Schools must:

have strict hand-washing policies
promote the "catch it, bin it, kill it" approach when it comes to coughing and sneezing
step up cleaning arrangements
be ready to contact NHS Test and Trace
The government expects school kitchens to be open from September.

What else does the government say?

Pupils should wear uniform as normal
Pupils should bring only essentials to school - including lunch boxes, books, stationery and mobile phones
Pupils and teachers can take books and other shared resources home, but must avoid unnecessary sharing
Non-contact physical education can take place - outside if possible - with "scrupulous attention" to cleaning and hygiene
GCSE and A-level students not happy with the calculated grades awarded this summer can resit in the autumn
GCSEs and A-levels will take place in summer 2021 but with adaptations to ensure fairness
Primary school assessments will happen as normal next summer
Ofsted inspections will remain suspended for the autumn term - but schools may be visited to assess how the new arrangements are working

Amidst rise in New Corona cases, they are still trying to find a way.

Nigeria on the disgraceful hand is throwing 2021 into the narrative. Big disgrace of a country.

A minister of education can not educate himself enough on how to deal with issues like this and is trying to drag the entire country down to the level of his ignorance.

Voting on party lines is bad for us as a nation. Smart individuals do not seem to get their way to the top of the two major parties in the country presently.

Nigeria, being the big brother to these other nations should be in the fore front of growing her economy amidst the covid crisis.

Nigeria should show example to others on how to maneuver their way through this. How to open schools, airports, hotels, churches etc.

It is a pity that smaller countries are taking the initiative while our leaders are still lost on what to do. They are not even learning.

Opening schools is not a big issue. Ensuring safety is not a big issue.

China is already profiling individual citizens of her country. Nigeria cannot even coordinate a safe gathering of people. Pity.
