ariesbull:


Don't even call yourself an engineer as they would say! You just have a freaking HND

ask NSE ?

They would call you technician
You're neither an engineer or a technologist until you're certified as one by the regulatory bodies.

As a fresh graduate with little or no experience, you can register in the graduate category with NSE.
Same goes to an HND holder, you can register with NATE as a grad technologist.

In the hierarchy of engineering, engineers needs technologist to survive, the technologist needs technician to survive and so on.

My point is, don't try to make anyone feel inferior because of their qualifications.
Qualifications don't make you, you made yourself.

Your level of development and research will determine how far you'll go in the engineering sector.

The problem we have in this country is because we value certificate more than the what we can offer.

Most of the whites coming to install engines in Nigeria are mere technicians in their countries and you'll be seeing how our so call professor will be saying yes sir to all they say.

I wept for the engineering sector in Nigeria

Politics / 3 Critical Points Buhari Failed To Address In His Independence Speech by blogbuilder: 11:23am On Oct 01, 2018
As Nigerians celebrate the 58th independence today, the president of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari address the country in a nationwide broadcast. However there are pressing issues Nigerians expected President Buhari to address, but he was silent about them, creating doubts and fears in the minds of many, especially civil servant's.

Incase you missed the speech, click [url=https://www.nairaland.com/4763095/buharis-speech-nigerias-58th-independence ]here[/url] to read it.

Minimum wage
Following the warning strike organized by NLC to demand increment in minimum wages on 28th of September, the president didn't speak about the issue.
Although the strike may be suspended but the president refuses to shed light on it whether there will be increment or not.


Education

Education is the backbone of every developed nation, the president failed to address the issue lingering in our education system.


Next General Election

As the country prepares for his next general election, the president refuses to mention the plan he has for the election. Consequently, he failed to commend/Condemn the INEC and security forces for their roles in the previous elections conducted so far..

These are part of my observations in the president speech..

Phones / 4 Ways To Kill Your Social Media Addiction by blogbuilder: 3:34pm On Sep 25, 2018
Social media is one of the greatest source of distraction in this 21st century.
According to research, every social media user spends an average of 2hrs on social media daily.
Among all, Facebook and Instagram have the highest usage.
Only 10% of users uses the app for business purposes while others uses it for some things.

Before writing this post, I analyze myself and discover that I'm spending an average of 6hrs daily on social media. If I'm to calculate this by a year, it is approximately 2190hours which is 19days in a year.

I'm not against the usage of social media if you're using it to make money but it doesn't speak well if you're spending five unproductive hours on social media daily.

Now to the point, how to kill your addiction

Delete your social media app
This may sound weird to some people especially girls that cannot live their lives outside social media. You will not die if you do that
They may be asking themselves, why should I delete my social media app? But wait let me tell you, those unproductive time you're wasting to recieve likes and comments on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter can be Channelled to a productive one. You can use it to sell your goods and the rest.
Deleting the app for 2-3weeks will make you to loose interest in them.

Hide your social media
If you feel you can't delete your social media, you can hide them during the working hour.
This is the trick I used in killing my addiction to social media.
After my morning devotion, I'll check my whatsapp messages and immediately I'll hide all my social media app.
I Will only decrypt them when I'm done working for the day.
You can use apps like X-hide and lot more.
If you don't have any app to do this, follow the steps below...
Step1 Goto Google play service

Step 2 Type "App hider" in the search box

Step 3 A lot of suggestions will pop up, choose the one with the highest rating say 5 star

Step 4 Install and use accordingly

Delete your social media account
There's a saying that "Nothing good comes easily"
Addiction is something that may damage your productive time thereby reflecting in your future.
If you want to battle with this, it doesn't cost you anything if you delete your account.
If you are not doing something useful with it, use this remedy to kill your addiction.
The main social media account that can help your ministry is LinkedIn.

Hide your phone during working hour
Another way of doing this is by keeping your phone away from you during the day.
If you can take your mind far from something for a long period, you'll soon loose interest in it.

Politics / Facts You Might Not Know About Ekiti State And His Election by blogbuilder: 4:59pm On Jul 18, 2018
The election might had come and gone but the impact toward the Nigeria and the world at large will not be forgotten soon.
Fountain of knowledge as it was formerly called is a state blessed with a lot of elites. It is among the top 5 states with the highest number of professors in Nigeria.
The election was free and fair but money influence most of the voters to vote for or against their wishes.
It's worthy to note that Ekiti State was created on 1/10/1996.

These are some of the facts you might not know about the state and it elections

Ruled by highest number of governors(cool: Between 1999 to 2018,ekiti state has been ruled by 8 different governors in just 5tenure.
1999_2003 Otunba Adeniyi Adebayo
2003-2007
Ayodele Fayose
Chief Friday Aderemi
Tunji Olurin
Tope Ademiluyi

2007-2010 Segun Oni
2010-2014 Kayode Fayemi
2014-2018 Ayodele Fayose


No party has ruled twice in a row:
Ekiti State is the only state where a party has never rule in a row. This has been their pattern over the years.
From Era of
Adebayo(AD)
Fayose( PDP) to
Segun Oni(PDP) to
Fayemi (APC) to
Fayose(PDP) to
Fayemi(APC).
It's worthy to note that Segun Oni was not the governor elect in 2007.It was as a result of manipulation of result that Segun Oni was declared . This was later cancelled by election tribunal and Fayemi was pronounced as the winner in 2010


Reelect one person after years of voting them out
: Fayemi returning to the seat of power in the state makes it the second person that will be voted out and return to the seat in years later. Firstly it was Fayose in 2003 and he was reelected in 2014


Two incumbent defeated by one person:
Fayose added this to his portfolio. In 2014 when he won the governorship election, he boasted that he's the only one that unseated two incumbent governor to clinch the seat of power in the state. Actually, this is true. He unseated Adebayo in 2003 and Fayemi in 2014. Both are incumbents.

Politics / Why Ekiti Election Is Crucial To PDP And APC by blogbuilder: 5:35pm On Jul 12, 2018
As the window for campaign closes, the preparation for Ekiti election has been full of brouhaha for the past few weeks.
Firstly it was the case of gunshot which wound Bamidele, later the incumbent governor was attacked.
The top aspirants are prof. Kolapo Olusola(PDP) and Kayode fayemi(APC).

Here are the reasons

Fate determinant:There's no doubt, Ekiti election will determine what will happen in Osun election come August.
It will also determine the fate of the two parties in the next general election

Taking Ekiti from pdp: Ekiti is the only state in the southwest being govern by PDP.
APC are planning everything possible to ensure that they win in Ekiti. Their victory will amount to no PDP governor in Ekiti State.

Fayose doesn't want to loose: If you're not in Ekiti, you might be wondering if Fayose is the candidate for PDP. The answer is not far fetch. It's because Fayose Haye to be a looser. If PDP must come back to power in the next general election, Ekiti and Osun election is not a thing to joke with. Fayose is the frotliner for the PDP.

Revenge time: If you're in Ekiti State in the last general election, you'll know what I mean by revenge. About 30000 policemen were deployed for the election.
This year election is the playback of 2014 election in the state. As of now, the trend is still the same.

Two incumbent:Unarguably, the two key aspirants are part of the current administration. Olusola is the present deputy governor of the state while Fayemi was a minister before is resignation. Loosing the election will leave any of them with nothing to go back to in politics....

She is not working so she can carry financial problems but she want to be busy other than staying at home. If you must know she is Igbo and mbaise. Mbaise girls are industrious they like to work so they can help their husbands. She is a graduate.

Education / Re: 7 Reasons Why Polytechnic Students Are Rated 2nd Class Student. by blogbuilder: 6:33pm On Apr 19, 2018
HigherEd:
Hmm that's so sad. They have no reason to feel inferior. There is no proof anywhere in this Nigeria that a university graduate is necessarily better than a polytechnic graduate. And there is no proof that both class of graduates studied anything meaningful to even make a difference. The curriculum for both Universities and polytechnics are both redundant. I don't see myself ever making any dinstinction between a poly and uni grad as an employer.
Good point you made bro

SuperSuave:
I dey cum

I quite agree with most of your points as they apply to most polytechnic graduates (not all) but the ones I totally disagree with are:
How many undergraduate and post graduate students read to understand these days? especially not when you're studying an engineering course where you have to cram design formulas and other shītz you might never even use in the field. We all know the common slogan among students these days, be it polytechnic or university is "LA CRAM LA POUR". Most people are chasing the certificate and high grades that they forget one of the most important things is the ability to perform.

How many of the things you studied in your first to third year do you still remember vividly?

Can you mention how many federal or state universities you know of that use 2015 or above model of vehicles for their practical? I'm not disputing the fact that universities teach practical even though not all while rarely will you see a polytechnic that doesn't involve their technology students in constant practical.

"How will they be able to handle a modern vehicle after graduation."

very silly statement. Show me a mechanical engineering graduate from a university that can open a repair shop without having field knowledge. What's the essence of the industrial training university and polytechnic students go for if not to learn and familiarize themselves with how things are being done live in field.

Keep on dusting your certificate everyday with the hope of getting that dream job because you have B.Sc while that polytechnic graduate is out there gaining field experience day in day out.

P.s: It's only in Nigeria that I've seen that there's a big dichotomy between HND and B.Sc. The total credit units offered from ND 1 to HND 2 is equivalent and sometimes more than that of a university but never below.

Do you know that HND is equivalent to a bachelors degree in the US an some part of the world and that you can proceed for your masters program without PGD?
I really like your point of emphasis but why I'm concerned specifically about this is that the level at which you will learn if you are able to handle any of this modern vehicle of you're taught in the school will be different from that of someone who has not handled it before...
