The FG should bring up policies that mandates the private sector to fund university research, but in my other post, I made it clear that the FG must increase funding to the universities. Do you know the bottlenecks we face to even get consumables to use in the lab to teach students? I'm not talking about research here, don't even get me started on the challenge of electricity.

I say this without contradiction, Google how much the US, EU, UK, Canada and Australia spend annually on funding university education, then you will know that we have lost it in this country. Look ASUU's demands, is not all about pay, it's more about the infrastructural development and funding of the university.

This broadcast was not recorded today. Since the president refers to 18 months, it appears the broadcast was made around February. Are we been taking for a ride again?

CzarChris:
let me assume you made this comment out of ignorance of how university education is run in this country. This is like the local governments asking for autonomy from the state governments. How can you carry out needed research when the government and NUC pegs how much you get, with little or nothing left for research, and you will still come here to say we produce half-baked or theoretical graduates?

I totally agree for the 1st time with Oby on this one, we have a lot of multinational companies with heavy business interests in this country, the should be encouraged(mandated if need be) to sponsor research in the areas they operate in this country, rather than sponsor reality TV shows that add zero value to the country. Without bankable researchs going on in our various institutions how do we expect our academic products to be recognised worldwide? I have a friend in the UK, he is in the academia. This guy got a research grant worth over a million euros. Why won't he do exploits and be taken seriously the world over. For our universities to be ranked at least among the first 500 in the world, we must fund our universities.

UNESCO wasn't crazy when they mandated countries the world over to give atleast 30% of their yearly budget to the educational sector. Nigeria gives less than 2.5%, and you believe we will develop further than this? ASUU, is doing the country a favour, take or leave it.

proffemi:
Jeez. Everybody wants ASUU to come up with schemes to raise money. Are you sure you want me devoting only 5% of my time to educate the future leaders in my field just so I can generate ideas to raise money to subsidize ...arrrggg.

Lets keep it simple. I was employed to teach and conduct research, not come up with business plans to make it cheaper for you to get a world class education. Why should that be my job

kings09:
U know school fees will be one of those schemes n guess who protest most

Death everywhere. Explanation of likely way of departure: punctured injury as a result of force from the front to the chest, in turn puncturing the lower segment of the right lung. As a result of injured blood vessels, blood filled the lung causing its collapse and obstructing breathing. The blood may be too much thereby flowing from the right lung into the trachea and left lung aided by the lying position of the man which may cause complete airway obstruction. And the bleeding of this magnitude will consequently cause extreme reduction in circulating fluid(total fall in blood pressure), body compensation failed and death occurred within a short time. #Traditional ME#

wetin dey sup for 27th august?

1. These seats are not first class seats of the Lagos-Kaduna trains. I have been in them so I know. The only time the first class seats are"headed" is when the the train leaves the Idu station in Abuja. Some seats are reserved for passe. Gers at Kubwa station. But this is not the first class coach

2. Those seats are not empty. You see them from the back and think so because the chairs are large and you can seat in them and be totally covered

3. The problem of people standing is due to corrupt officials who sell even after being out of tickets. I remeber during my trip, theu collected cash from some people.

4. Some managers were recently fired for doing 3 above.

5. More coaches are needed along with more trips; this is the only thing that can stop ticketers collecting money after the tickets have been sold out. If passengers know if they miss the 7am train, there is another at 11am and 4pm, they will be less inclined to pay to stand. Also if there are more coaches, there will be more seats for people

You speak in future tense. Till then, CBN won't permit any bank in this country to accept that for common tier 3 savings account type not to talk of a current account.

BVN is easily verifiable.
National drivers license is.
Permanent voters card too.
International passport, yes.

But NIMC, not yet. No bank is ready to pay huge fine for N1 account. No, not one.

When the news broke that Etisalat is going going to be managed by Nigerians, I immediately knew that the end has come for that once flourishing network...the best we've ever had.

Since after the handover, I've been experiencing glitches that affirm my suspicions the more that it's only downhill from here. These guys are going to run this network aground.

Take for instance this network challenge that I've been experiencing since the past two days. Something I've never heard of in the days of Etisalat. I called and was informed that it's a general issue. People in my area have not been able to browse for 2days now and 9 mobile abi 419mobile has not as much as issued at least a public acknowledgement to reassure us that they are working on it.

Same thing with Glo...Crab. Glo is being run like an LGA firm.

The same Etisalat that was been managed by the Arabs...same equipments... nothing has changed except management.

This is what is wrong with the black mind.

amicable09:
Do they have a portal to verify it?
There are accounts that can be opened with NIMC temp slip but it will have loads of restrictions and limits.

amicable09:
But it is non verifiable Na.

Banks or should I say most that I know, don't accept nimc temporary slip as a valid means of identification.

NIMC should contact NIBSS instead of trying to exchange word with Sterling. I think they are speaking from the position of all banks. Compliance won't even allow the account be opened with that paper

Two Nigerian immigrants have gotten international attention after volunteering to sweep the streets in Italy. According to reports, it’s hard to find a job if one is in the process of claiming asylum but this group of Nigerians living in a migrant camp in Rome have started a voluntary street sweeping collective.

The sweeping collective was founded by Wisdom and Osas, who came up with the idea because they had no money but did not want to beg on the streets.

In an audio interview with BBC, the Nigerians revealed that they've been in Italy for nine months and decided to sweep the streets rather than remaining idle in the migrant camp. They revealed that they are more than 300 Nigerian guys sweeping the streets as people give them money to appreciate their work.
