tctrills:
You are still refusing to understand. I fully get your comment. It was clear enough but completely irrelevant.
Again, you have had the opportunity to make useful comment but you seem fixed on defending your past comment. Let's move on, we shouldn't beat this issue to death. It's not worth it.

Torh, no be small thing o

greenermodels:
so all the Yorubas and their chiefs been murdered by Fulani herdsmen are northerners worries? Another murdered chief was on the news a few days ago. Continue crying over the Igbos that have long left the country in their mentality and are therefore best prepared to survive and even thrive in the Tinubulation.

No vex bro.

mrvitalis:
Don't ever mistake me for your weak fada ever again

Tor, blessed of the Lord

ObaOfYorubaLand:
Those evil charlatans cheering this old man to his destruction are even suffering more than Igbos.

Igbos will even do better with a bad government like Buhari and Tinubus governments.

Igbos are blessed and you can't curse them and don't have it returned back to you.

Good question

Salewa97:
Toh

Mr Dan Nwanyanwu, are you also advising your people to stop making provocative statements?

Sure they do, they are part of the larger economy

ivandragon:
You should learn to read and understand a person's comments so you do not ask condescending questions that get you condescending responses.

You have spoken about socioeconomic conditions impeding industrialization in Nigeria, didn't I make reference to socioeconomic conditions as a problem? Or don't the bricklayers and iron benders exist within the socioeconomic conditions you just listed?

Yes o, turn by turn

trutharena:
Buhari has done his own, and now its Tinubus turn.

Good question

chiagozien:
Were yobas quiet when Jonathan governing?

Okay

PulaPower:
All these noise makers should just keep quiet..

Tinubu is governing all Nigerians and Ibos won’t be an exception..

Hmmm, it is well o

chiagozien:
No Evil they plan for Igbos that have affected Igbos only.


Nigeria is down because some people believe in keeping Igbos down.

Gbam, la cram la pour

lexy2014:
that still leaves the questions unanswered.

is asking you the following not research? yes or no

since you have read these educational materials, I dont see anywhere in your comments that shows that you have a very good understanding and knowledge about how society works or is stratified.

can you share what you read in those educational materials?

Chief Dan Nwanyanwu shares encounters with Former President, Muhammadu Buhari on issues relating to the Igbos, advising President Tinubu on same subject.

Partially? How?

aribisala0:
Yes
Partially

...and very correct. They see artisans as cheap labour

skywalker240:
Hmm this one is very deep 🤔🤔

Abi o, what a nation

Chibuezem:
The same man will send his children abroad to university. As if those skills cannot be refined in institute of higher education.

Very well articulated, practical is key.

ceejayluv:
You made good points though. I agree that a maintenance supervisor doesn't always require a degree - but to climb the career ladder i.e to Maintenance manager, up to technical Manager/ director, a higher education More often than not would be preferred.
It still boils down to lack of industrial exposure.... Fluid Mechanics, for example has great applications in aerospace, naval, automotive, hydroelectric sectors, etc. So a fresh graduate that "crams" Navier-Stokes applications would ideally have somewhere to gain and contribute practically (especially in R & D and Design ). But that's not the Case here.

Sure, this is really the issue. We need a well structured, professional, reward-centered blue collar sector to attract youths

ivandragon:
You think you must work in a structured organisation to be classified as a blue collar worker?

Why are you arguing out of context? I clearly said socioeconomic conditions and the value system undermines technicians in Nigeria, so what's your fixation with nigerian artisans that are billionaires?

In developed countries, you have blue collar workers that became billionaires.

Lol. Technology rules the world

TEYA:
blue collar jobs are very important, they are well paid in first world countries, yet they don't talk down on professionals like you ignoramuses do. The London city and guilds is an offshoot of the Royal institute of British architects and engineers' professional body in UK. no one in the developed world will say bricklayers and iron benders are the harbingers of industrialisation like your foolish leaders who you well deserve say.

Good analysis. You need to speak to reward for artisans

tctrills:
Funny you don't even understand my comment.
So does an economy need blue collar workers?
Yes.
Is the Nigerian problem a lack of blue collar workers?
No.
So let's stop wasting time on meaningless arguments and start tackling our real problems.

True

ceejayluv:
I was replying another poster and not the main topic. Besides, I stated that we need more large scale investments like Dangote. The more industrialized we become, the more everyone - trades or graduates - Will find a place to fit in.

We all need one another to survive

ivandragon:
So the science and engineering just came out of thin air? Straight from the brain of the innovator into reality right?

Then every time the machine breaks down, the innovator magically knows and telepathically repairs the machine right?

Ok. I agree with you.

The ongoing Africa Military Games 2024 in Abuja has transformed Nigeria’s capital into a vibrant hub of military sportsmanship, showcasing the continent's athletic prowess and unity.

Harsh please

Tommydare:
Stupid man. As if there are no bricklayers, carpenters etc in the country. He should encourage his children to become iron benders as well. Eleribu gbogbo

Deep thoughts

studyless123:
The millions of graduates that Nigeria have churned out, what have they developed? I've conducted several interviews and found many of them unemployable. The smart ones end up learning skills. There's more demand for skilled labour than university graduates. The country doesn't lack university graduates but lack skilled labourers.

HellVictorinho9:
Go and sleep sir

Hmmmm, so touching

smokinloud:
In developed countries self-employed mechanics benefit from the robust economy. In contrast, Nigeria's cheap labor and low demand for skilled workers drive brain drain, as talented individuals seek better opportunities which leads many of them into yahoo.

Abi o

DeepSight:
Doubtful if AI bodes well for humanity.

Very well said

tefund:
You got it all right? Nigeria's apprenticeship programs is slavery and don't encourage massive enrollment, this need to be upgraded.

Easy bro

Manager2016:
Go and tell that to your grandchildren. Tell them to become bricklayers, mechanics and carpenters.

You have your son as Edo state commissioner of Health, if he was a bricklayer, would he be a commissioner?

Well said, don't mind those lunatics who are looking for the low minds to deceive. They send their children abroad, and discourage others so that they will remain at the top with their generations. Talking from both sides of the mouths. I don't blame them. Somebody here will start supporting them. To what extent has he or his likes promoted technical education?

Hmmmm, but we can copy other developed countries and make the labour they put in worthwhile

ivandragon:
Three things are evident from your statement.

1. You obviously don't understand metonymy/synecdoche, so I can excuse your inability to comprehend even though the my reference to 'technical' work force should have given you an idea that the matter relates to blue collar jobs in general which leads me to the next point.

2. You seem not to know that blue collar jobs are the backbone of industrialisation. No matter how many tertiary degrees you have, no matter how many innovations you can come up with, you need people who can put in sweat and blood to do the 'dirty' jobs. People with technical know-how and special skill sets. Those people whom you take for granted which brings me to my third point.

3. You come across as one of those who raise thier noses against honest Labour. You see a bricklayer or mechanic and see the person as sub-human. You think they contribute nothing to the economy.

Hmmmm...

IamANigerianMan:
Their children are schooling in one of the best university in the world but the children of the poor should go and learn Plumber so that they will continue to rule them

I think University education should be more of practical than western theory system

smokinloud:
In other words LET'S GO BACK TO THE 19TH CENTURY.
