It's funny how Nigerians claim they turned out well, despite the beating they received when they were young and yet the society/polity has continually failed to reflect it. The Nigerian system today is a mirror image of the beatings people received when they were young. If Nigerians turned out well as we claim, there won't be rampant yahoo-yahoo, prostitution, cheating, killing-cultism, unfazed lies in the country.

You can't turn out well and be a congenital liar. Lying is a sociopathic behaviour. Nigerians are just pretentious, pretend to be good around the parents, and monsters outside.

You know why western countries are progressing? People are thought to speak out at young age, hence the their stern challenge/stand-up to their politicians with bold faces. Nigerians have been beaten to submission/slave by their parents, the reason why we're dead scared of older ones (elders), even when they are evil. We need to wake up!


My stand on beating kids; there are a thousand ways to speak to your child without flogging him/her. Children are scared of lengthy conversational corrections, it makes them tear up and regret their actions. It's far more effective than beating. I've noticed that most Africans transfer their life frustrations/depressions to their poor kids.

@eis0m0rail

I read your posts with disappointment but you are totally entitled to your opinion so I respect that, even though I completely disagree with you.

Firstly, PDP and APC is the same, so I see no difference. I do not support any political party in Nigeria. I have never voted in Nigeria because I have not seen any smart presidential aspirant that have the qualities required to lift Nigeria. I'm a strong advocate of one Nigeria as that ought to be our strength.

You mentioned that NOI blamed the Governors for sharing oil revenue from the Excess Crude Account. Remember there was a Supreme court judgement against keeping the funds in the account after Amechi took the case to court. Her hands were tied hence the funds were shared. Secondly the function of a finance minister is to allocate funds and see that funds are distributed to the appropriate bodies and institutions, correct me if I'm wrong. Finance Minister can not question the heads of institutions on how they spend their funds unless through the appropriate channel, NPF or EFCC. I dont think a finance minister can hold back fund due to Govt bodies, correct me if I'm wrong. Once there is approval from relevant authorities, she is bound to approve and see that the funds are disbursed.

You suggested that she should have resigned; thats how easy it sounds. I'll use myself as an example; I returned to Nigeria in 2010 to start a company. We got to the point where we were servicing a lot of companies in Abuja. I had over 50 permanent staff and there were a lot of sharp practices that were going on among the staff (always trying to steal and enrich themselves criminally). If I understand your suggestion, I should given up and ran back to where I came from, but no. I tried to change the mindset of many of my staff. I saw that as an opportunity to contribute to Nigeria through provision of employment and also make them a better and more upright citizens. It worked for some but not everyone. I spent 80% of my time on research, building system that will either eliminate or drastically reduce the rate of theft. In the end, you are only left to spend 20% of time on actual company growth. That was really defeating but I didnt give up. I loved Nigeria so much that I fought back real hard and had to employ two guys to research on how to minimize or eliminate theft. They did an amazing job though. Reason for saying all these is to inform you that Nigerians will call you a coward or you may even feel like one when you run at the slightest challenge in an effort to serve your country. You work hard to build institutions or systems that will prevent it from repeating itself, thats about the first thing you learn as an Engr or a Project Manager in western countries. Fighting corruption is best done through institutionalization of our processes.

This brings me to the issue of TSA. She designed the system to prevent head of institutions from having direct assess to funds which was a wonderful idea. These are corruption-preventive institutions. The new Govt came into power and started immediate implementation in a flawed manner. Why would you take out 3Trillion Naira ($10B out of $450B GDP - 2.2% of our GDP) from the economy in one swell swoop. Thats enough to drop the economic growth by well over 2.2% directly, and further drop through ripple effects. To prevent recession, the new Govt should have first struck an agreement with top banks in Nigeria to borrow the fund at say 6-10% annual interest rate rather than leaving them idle in CBN account. This action alone is enough to cause terrible recession. Secondly, stock and bond investors took out about $82-$85B from Nigerian economy as soon as they had hint on forex rules that was about to come into effect (that was 17% of Nigerian GDP).

Why wont the economy go into recession when all the funds that businessmen ought to work with to increase revenue and pay tax to Govt is leaving the shores of the country while some are lying idle in CBN account.

I have also laid off almost all my staff and current have only 4 staff running skeletal operation until 2020 when I'll finally close my operation in Nigeria for good. I know how much i have taken out of the economy and so many of my friends have done the same. I have seen people close their Nigerian operation and moved over a million dollars out of the Nigerian economy. I blame all that in the utterances of the new Govt and the level of insecurity in the country. My friends and myself are closing our Nigerian operation due to regression we saw in Nigeria in the past 8 years. Things haven't got better in anyway, either PDP, APC or APGA.... They have all failed Nigeria. We need a smart, intelligent and creative President who can think outside the box, who have dreams, who believes in surrounding himself with people that are more intelligent than he/she is. As an employer, I love to hire people that will continually challenge me with superior arguments but Nigerian leaders don't entertain criticism, that's why we can never grow. They will always look for "oh-yes" members and mediocre colleagues.

This is one thing I loved about Obasanjo, he had ministers that were far smarter than him. El_rufai does the same thing, AS FCT minister, he hired a lot of PHD holders from the US and the UK and he listened to them completely. Till date, he is still the best FCT minister we've ever had.

Anyways, thats all i have to say. I post on nairaland once in about 2-5years, so I hope to read your comments when next i visit.

"Cutting one short while he is talking during interview" is part of the test. It is proper to cut people short severally during interview.
This is a test of team work spirit (how you manage your nerves when team members disagree with you) and anger suppression/management (when in argument with colleagues).

My one cent.
I'm currently in Alberta and my wife is a PHD student at one of the Unis.
Being accepted as a PHD candidate in Canada doesn't mean you are skipping MSC.
MSC students usually do about 5 to 9 taught courses after which they commence their research (6months research and 3 to 4 months report), while as a PHD student, you MUST still do the same courses within one or two years and then do your research for 2 to 3 years, and then write your report in 4-6 months. The only difference between MSC and PHD is the duration of your research( usually a difference of 2-3 years research). Remember you have to pass your candidacy exam immediately after your taught program(you are strongly advised to complete it in 1 year) before you are considered a PHD student. Your admission letter will have that conditional admission clause. If you don't pass your taught programs and then your candidacy, you will not be allowed to continue with your PHD.
Go and read up your Calculus, Advanced Thermodynamics, Heat transfer and Fluid Mechanics.

Best of luck anyways. There are dozens of opportunities in Canada.

It will have a programmed work flow. Daily staff report accessible by every other staff. Someone gave a bill of 100k to deploy the services and that excludes cost of monthly subscription. It will also be used to assess staff performance.
I'm not into IT, hence my question. Can I offer 50k for the service?

Does anyone know a website I can stream this match please?

Do your research friend, take to google for advise. You dont need US/UN or France to fight your war.
Have you compared the number of bomb explosions and death rates in Iraq pre- and post 2003 US invasion. Iraq recorded over 10,000 bomb related eaths in 2013.

Over 1,000 bomb related deaths in Egypt in 2003, 1,850 in Libya and over 8,000 in Afghanistan, USA/UN/France should complete their missions in these countries and bring their bomb related deaths to zero before they should come to Nigeria.

Furthermore, if USA truly want to help, they should start with their closest neighbors, Mexico where drug-related death are counted in dozens weekly.
US gun-related deaths for 2012 was about twelve thousand (12,000), and it increases annually. America should start bombing the communities where they record at least 5gun shots daily with over 5deaths weekly.

Some people just talk because they have a mouth not because they want to make any sense,  Seriously.

Blame GEJ - GEJ is now the cause of rain in Lagos and he should account for this.

Do you think those people in the UK who often gets hit by flood have time to speak wantonly about their government when that happens?

My friend, u shouldnt make references to unconfirmed information. Following the UK flood of 2008, there was an outburst and condemnation of Gordon Brown's Govt, that lead to the blueprint for the re-designing of the entire drainage system in the UK. The first phase of the design commenced in February 2009 and was handled by Jacob Consulting, if not that its company's confidential doc, I would have posted the prliminary Engr design for your info.
Nigeria/Lagos is supposed to have constructed an active Jetties/Shores in Lagos, not to talk of a detailed drainage system for the entire city. I will always blame the State Govt for not taking the drainage system of the state seriously and probably turning the shores to great tourist centres like we have in Brighton, Southampton, Plymouth etc
