She turn William Shakesphere ooo.

All is fair in love and war.

HigherEd:
It is sad that once again a Nigerian who ought to be a responsible mentor for Nigerian youths has towed the unfortunate path of Ignorance. In his recent music video, Fahlz called out Nigerian Churches for building universities with money of the poor yet made it unavailable for the poor due to "expensive" tuition.

This is one of the numerous emotional blackmail that churches in Nigeria are being subjected to. It is sad because one wonders if much of these accusers even realise what it takes to fund a mediocre university not to talk of a good one. In much of these debates and attacks against churches, most seem to abandon the facts rather they go feed on the lies and propaganda against the church which is an easy target because most churches rightly do not have PR teams or many individuals knowledgeable enough to defend them.

How Much Does It Cost To Run A Nigerian University
We would be using federal and state universities as a guide here due to the unavailability of data from mission universities.
In their underfunded states, the University of Ibadan's annual wage bill stands at 800 million naira/month translating to 10 billion naira/annum. Capital allocation to the university also stands at 1 billion naira/annum. While Tetfund's annual allocation stands at 2 billion naira per annum. Therefore all FG induced funding stands at 13 billion naira for a total number of 29,783 students which put total FG subsidy of UI at N437,000.00 per annum. This is excluding the IGR made by the university.
State universities on the other hand have a typical wage bill profile of about 5 billion a year. Example would be the likes of Lautech and EkSu with 390> million naira and 450 million naira as wage bill respectively.

If Governments are finding it hard to fund universities how would fahlz expect churches to do so exclusively?
Until recently Lautech was enmeshed in a serie of Industrial actions which was a result of the two owner state's inability to pay subvention for the university. Adekunle Ajasin on the other hand witnessed an internal crisis when state government had to hike the fees students where paying. All these are testament to the fact that university education is severely expensive to fund. So the intelligent questions that Fahlz should be asking is how state governments funded with Oil revenue, Compulsory Tax and a predictable income regime are finding it nearly impossible to properly fund single universities across their various states. Not why should churches who are funded by Voluntary donations and a nonconsistent income regime must fund free education.

There Are No Free Church Universities Anywhere In The World.
While most of the advocates of free church university education are quick to cite old missionaries as the reason why today's church must give free education it is curious as to why they refuse to cite free church universities in adavanced nations of the world today which currently practices free education. They cunningly make it sound as though tuition fees was invented by Nigerian pastors. But it is indeed far from the truth. The fact is that majority of the conventional churches across the globe funded or founded by churches charge way higher than their counterparts in Nigerian universities. Exceptions would be made of university cum seminaries which are usually also funded by churches.

"Church Universities Are Funded By The Poor" - A lie invented by Mischievous individuals
Half truths are equal to lies, to say that church universities are funded by the poor is to insinuate that they are exclusively funded by them. But that would be a lie because the obvious truth is that they are equally funded by the rich and middle class who in some cases don't even bother applying. Much of these self appointed advocates of the poor are in the reality hypocrites using poor people as a pawn in a dirty war game against the church.
University education is expensive everywhere and where it is free someone must be paying for it. Many of the hyocritic advocates of the poor make it seem as though poor people sell off their inheritances to gift to churches so as to build schools "that are for the rich". But in reality what most church members give to churches or university donations are negligible funds such as 50 - 500 naira. How many 50/100 naira notes are you going to pull together to replace one 800,000 required to educate one kid?


Nigerian Churches Should Continue Their Good works In The Higher Education Sector And Ignore Detractors.
The fact of the matter is that Nigerian churches provided over 30 universities which has given thousands of Nigerian youths the opportunity to study in a country with one of the lowest university per populations in the world. They've done that and have equally saved Nigeria millions in foreign exchange which erstwhile was lost to education tourism. They've funded researches in millions, owned research institutes which helped in curbing infectious disease and now even one now has a startup laboratory.

The article is already opinionated. Gonzo journalism.

Itebu7:
Sometimes some of you talk so heartlessly. Salah was injured by Ramos, now tell me "Who injured Carvajal. Have sympathy of one for once irrespective of your club.
Ramos is Wrong...
With Salah the game would have been more entertaining...

Football is not mathematics

gurunlocker:
I am talking about how important Salah is to their team, he has no replacement like Madrid has for their players.

So the better team won.

gurunlocker:
See Mumu talk..... Carvajal had injury too. Let me ask you how it will feel if it was Ronaldo that get injured tonight, will you say the same thing?

Salah is their main player and he was destroyed, Carvajal have replacement in which Salah didn't...

Bale came from the bench mind you.

TEYA:
They are talking about Salah you are here taking about one useless cavarjal.

No be only Salah, na barka

FoolishBoy419:
Are you comparing carvajal with Mohammed salah? Take your punishment

11 versus 11

When someone said it earlier that Salah has decided not to fast so as to play actively in the final, I gave my 2 cents verdict that it won't matter. Even if he decided to slow, nothing for liverpoool. Omo there were 11 players each on both sides, Carvajal had an injury too.

FoolishBoy419:
Later the useless fans will start bragging. That foul was completely deliberate and pre-planned. Dirty players

Ok



Maybe we all should become vegetarians. Age fast or not, death is still the ultimate destiny.

Thank you Mr. President for bringing Facebook to Nigeria

Na wah oo. Not all men should have dicks.

I crushed on her when I was younger. Charming with a bold look! So sad...

yanabasee:
Left for me.... Atiku might be corrupt, but he'll be a better ouster and will make a good president that won't be influenced by OBJ and its likes...


With Atiku, issues like the Cabal hijacking the presidency won't be heard....


Atiku is a lone striker...

Na so una been talk about the one wey dey there now.

NwaAmaikpe:



I still remember it very vividly,
It was a sunny day in May 1995,
I was in a bus and the useless bus driver out of greed picked up a Fulani milkmaid.

The smell of the Fura Dununu in her calabash was nauseating though the sight of her unbrad brezz was comforting.
We all protested that either the bus driver drops her from the vehicle or we will all come down.

The driver took the wise decision and asked her to drop.

It's so sad that to this day,
23 years after
The Fulani are not welcome anywhere outside their land.

unfortunately they have no legitimate land.

Thanks op

Na only on top these kain mumu things Nigerians dey unite.

I'm sure he is hoping the last minute hulabaloo yields him political results and not economic results for the country. Selfish pipo...

Where did we come about the culture of pregnancy flaunting

Frustration wan strangle dis one

ehinmowo:
Thunder fure you and your simple opinion.

Sanctecosma:
If you may, your opinion does not change anything about the position of the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC and APOSTOLIC Church in relation to her divine Head, Our Lord Jesus Christ. So, the Church is and remains the Mystical Body of Christ Crucified. So arguing with you in that regard will be smacks of foolishness.

I don't mean to change nothing man, na you sabi wetin mystic and wetin static. Nobody is arguing with you cos I didn't request your quotes.

chrisb2r200:
You don't need to the Catholic Church doesn't need lunatics like u....body of Christ are all Christians not just catholics but ur fish brain won't make u understand that

Your gay of a priest has alot to learn from me

chrisb2r200:
You don't need to the Catholic Church doesn't need lunatics like u....body of Christ are all Christians not just catholics but ur fish brain won't make u understand that

I am saner than your Priests.

Imomeetsondo:
You need to read your bible more

Sure, I will. But I will not kneel before idols.

UgoFly:
It's too bad. You couldn't even make a coherent sentence at the first instance. Just go back to rehab.

It doesn't have to be coherent to you cos you don't think straight. Must I be in romance with your beliefs? Clown, you think I seek your approval? I meant what I wrote.

UgoFly:
who let you out of the psychiatric when you haven't fully recovered?

I recovered fully from the pain of watching you lose your sanity. You are not much of a loss. As soon as I was done visiting you, I had to leave the ward.

Clown... you think I must kneel before your idols?

zoba88:
'Catholic priests on a peaceful protest in Akure against the killings of Catholic priest in Benue and threat to the church and the body of Christ'.

Which body of christ? Christ ascended into heaven and did not leave his body on earth.


Edited:
And to the so-called Catholics quoting me with verbiage, you are no better than the Shekaus and Osamas. The reason is that you are violently defending a so-called faith that another man has a simple opinion about. Trust me if guns were put in your hands along with liberty to use, you would pull the trigger at me for stating my simple opinion. Una weh done, cowards

Which kain sufferhead be dis

Good!
