You certainly don't want this crisis to end. We need to ask you what you are personally gaining from this crisis. Or are you one of the criminals robbing Herders of their cattle?

For your information, this is more than robbery. In fact, the primary aim is to kill, secondary is the rustling. Evidence of this is sometimes, they just kill the cattle too. You talk as if other communities in all part of the country don't have crisis. Ife/Modakeke and Aguleri/Umuleri are examples.

Maybe the primary aim is to kill, but after they are done killing, and your killer herdsmen are done with their reprisals, your government still sends bombers to bomb innocent people, arrest and prosecute the 'rustlers', can you say same of your herdsmen??

Or do you think that all the people whose wives, husbands and children were killed and their farms pillaged do not have the wherewithal to go on a reprisal?? Would you say you haven't heard about such incidences in the news? Are their cases, whose perpetrators we know too well different??
If the government can still deploy soldiers to protect the perpetrators instead of hanging them, do you think I should still side with them.

Pataricatering:
people are lynched for stealing garri sef , talkless of 300 cows !

Yes, and they are arrested, prosecuted and sent to the hangman. Can you say the same of the murderous herdsmen??

mfm04622:
I will never justify taking human live. Even 1.

To solve a problem, you must diagnose the problem. Wrong diagnosis will lead to wrong solution being prescribed. So the real situation is some Berom criminals are killing and robbing Fulani. Stop that and Plateau will go back to being peaceful. Presently, efforts must be geared towards securing all roads that lead to and fro the area to stop killings on roads that have commenced

Are people not robbed daily in other parts of Nigeria? That they resort to murder means they should be served in kind. If everyone robbed in Nigeria resorts to murder this country would have been long gone.

All of una wey dey talk home button and back, fingerprint on screen dey purge una??

Computer Engineering is not Software Engineering or Computer Science. You don't even have a clue of what Formal Methods is about.
All programming languages are similar, so you need to know that understanding how to research, choose the right programming language for the requirements and how to code and develop reliable software is what a degree in Software Engineering and Computer Science will teach you, this way you can pick up any programming language and you will understand the syntax and how to work with it.

There are thousands and even millions of syntax in a programming language but self taught without a Degree in Software Engineering or Computer Science and mediocre programmers do expect a Software Engineering Graduate or Computer Science Graduate to have memorised and mastered every programming language and all the thousands and millions of syntax in a programming language what a joke.

As long as there are no regulations in place in the programming sector self taught without a Degree in Software Engineering and Computer Science and mediocre programmers will continue to talk the way you do just to make themselves look relevant in order to keep writing the unreliable and bug filled code they are writing now.

There is no version of Windows, Mac OS, Linux or any other operating system that is bug-free, and the software your 'professionals' build run on those. For your mind now, those OSes were developed by non professionals ba?? If you have even the smallest knowledge of software development reliability, or life cycle, you wouldn't still be arguing this point of yours.

And you saying that all programming languages are similar is another red flag that tells us, not just me, that you are nowhere near a Software Engineer. Even though Java and JavaScript share syntax that look similar, they are fundamentally different on all levels save for a few syntax structures. For your mind now Assembly and JavaScript are similar ba?? Or Fortran and Python shey?? Or Brainfuck and COBOL?

@raymod170, bot101 and other self taught programmers, the courses below are similar to what a Software Engineering Graduate or Computer Science Graduate would have studied while at uni. A self taught programmer can never in a life time acquire the knowledge a Software Engineering Graduate or Computer Science Graduate have acquired while at uni. If Software Engineering Graduates or Computer Science Graduates are given the chance to gain experience by writing the programs the self taught and mediocre programmers are writing then the quality of software Software Engineering Graduates or Computer Science Graduates will produce will become a different ball game.

Year 1
Information Systems Modelling and Design (Core)

Have you seen a Computer Engineering course curriculum?? Every single course that you listed here is taught in computer engineering except mobile app development (I didn't do that in school). In addition to that, we are taught electronics circuit design, integrated circuit design, embedded systems and we also do a bit of power systems. As for computing maths, don't even go there. We did that every year for 4 years. You want me to list the languages I was taught in school?? In the order I was taught from my first to final year (5 years) QBasic, Fortran, Assembly, Java, C/C++, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP & MySQL, but we all know that all those are basic knowledge and concepts of programming. Yes, you'll be taught programming patterns in school (singleton, factory, maybe adapter and a few others if you are lucky), you'll be taught a ton of other things like SDLC for example, but tell yourself the truth. If I give you a project to develop an enterprise ready neural network with only the knowledge you gained from school, would you be able to do it??If you know how rapidly technology changes in the software world, you'll know that knowledge gained in school became obsolete before you were even taught them. I say it again, there is no programmer that knows his/her worth that isn't self taught.

Edit:
The fact that you put (core) after each of the courses you listed there, tells me you haven't written any nontrivial program on your own. Linus Trovald (Linux), Rich Brendan (JavaScript) and the people that authored all the programming languages we use today can't boast of knowing every nitty gritty of the languages the themselves wrote. What you are taught as 'core' is called basic concepts in the real world.

You don't know that because you haven't written a program that's deployed in the real world. Write one or maybe two, and you'll delete everything you've posted so far

raymod170:
I have a few questions to ask Op which for the life of me I just can't understand

1. Is there a software that isn't bug free? Big companies like apple, google, Microsoft with all their developers who are experts, supervisors and projects managers , blah, blah blah still roll out software's or products that contains bugs which they fix and keep releasing updates from time to time.

2. fundamentals of programming which is data structure are you saying because I am a self taught developer who learnt this I should lose feel inferior to someone who went to uni and learnt the same thing

3. Most schools curriculum in the country teaches out dated programming languages how then do you expect a graduate who doesn't improve on his own to write software's with out making one of the errors we were taught in programming 101?

4. I may be wrong on this but please explain how windows OS which is one of the softwares with 20 millions lines of codes which has been built for over 20 years still has miscrosft best development team work day and night to realese updates why didn't they just released a bug free software since you claiming the above-mentioned

5. Yes I may agree with you on some certain context but the blame should be on those self taught programmers who felt they should cut Conner's simply because one or few codes they copied from the internet worked for them... but wait a minute what am I even saying I have friends who studied computer science or computer engineering and they cant code professionally as well

lastly I belive experience is what makes you an expert overtime as the more projects you work on and it's complexity gives you a more positive mindset towards fixing errors and avoiding it as we all professional programmers know that the first rule in programming is solving the solution before wrtiting the code.... while fixing the bug is more important than looking for a bug .....because no matter how you claim your software is bug free there is that single person what a ctrl spoil ability lol.

kind regards

That's why I said he's a persona non grata with matters relating to programming. In his mind now, there's a perfect software that doesn't need maintenance.

A Computer Engineering Graduate is not a Software Engineering Graduate so you don't know what you are saying. Coding covers just about 10% in a Software Engineering Degree and Computer Science Degree as there are more important things they cover which has to be considered when developing an application. Self taught and mediocre programmers expects a Software Engineering Graduate or Computer Science Graduate to produce code just like a magician. If Software Engineering Graduate or Computer Science Graduate have not worked on a code for a while he needs sometime to refresh his memory as he is not limited to just one way of coding like self taught and mediocre programmers who just learn and uses one type of coding only and expects Software Engineering Graduates and Computer Science Graduates to produce that same code just like magic even though they not done such for a long time.

Software Engineering Graduate or Computer Science Graduate can learn and use any programming language that is needed to write a reliable and bug free code that does what the user expects.

Self taught programmers like I said before will always talk like you do to make themselves look relevant as there is no regulation yet to keep them away from writing unreliable and bugs filled codes.

You just go on google, copy whatever makes sense to you, post it, and assume the position of authority on the subject.

Computer Science and Computer Engineering are pretty broad fields, and anyone can specialize in Software Engineering in either discipline. An Engineer would even write a more optimized program give his better understanding of the computer hardware architecture. And you failed to address the issue of Professors in Computer Science/Engineering who can't code. I've had first hand experience of working with them so you know.

Actually, the best position for a fingerprint sensor is the screen, and that is already a reality.

CodeTemplar:
Same here.

Wow, that's good to know.

Febup:
No, professionals who are software engineering majors and computer science majors have acquired the academic skills at uni to write reliable and bug free codes but programming is one profession were it is the mediocre programmers that are programming and heading software developement teams and all they are after is to write code quickly and deploy to users without worrying about the outcome.

Stop saying what you don't know. I am a Computer Engineering Graduate, as well as a Software Engineer, and I also know some Computer Engineering/Science Professors who can't code, and this isn't peculiar to Nigeria. It holds true even in the US. Knowing theoretical programming principles is completely different from knowing how to actually write code.

Also, learning programming principles is a lot much easier than actually learning how to write code.

1 million naira in 2018 is not what it used to be my people. this is for those wanting to invest in transportation with 1 million naira

That's how you see it, but will definitely work. There'll be a lot of work to do on your part, especially with vehicle and drivers' management, and you must be willing to not touch proceeds generated within the first year of operation (means you must have alternative source of income to take care of yourself).

Invest in the transportation sector, return initial investment capital after 7 months and pay a 50% interest over the next 3 months. Sounds good??

From the 2 audio clips, I can bet my 3rd testicle that she actually failed the course.

She should tread carefully.... YES she failed, YES Mr Lecturer requested for 5 rounds...THAT is a strong case already.

If the scripts are re-marked and she truly failed, her credibility would be damaged. If I was the lecturer, I would even ask them to dig up her undergrad scripts if she graduated from OAU

People like you....Nigeria can never get better, because of.

Yusuf might be a youth but it was wrong for an old man like charly to call him out. Remember buhari and his family are covered by immunity. So whatever buhari calls the youth cannot include yusuf because of immunity

Oh my God!!!! I am very sorry for quoting you the first time. If I knew this is how your brain worked, I'd never have quoted you. It'll never repeat itself again.

You are insincere and economical with the truth. Muamar ghadaffi trained and armed terrorist who later migrated to West Africa after the fall of Libya. Buhari even made it clear in London that ghadaffi is the cause of the killer herdsmen but your hatred for our president will not make u say the truth

You and the president should bury your heads in shame. A dead man killing your people without retaliation and you spew trash. Op shame on you ooo. The people buhari called lazy are not other people's children... they fell from the sky.

Common Peace Corps Buhari reject and dey claim the future of the country is in the hand of the youths.

You and your lot are the reason Nigeria has a very bleak future. Telling the crime enforcement agencies to 'free' criminals. Shameless criminals you all are!!!

C is used mostly for systems or embedded programming. Since you are a mechatronics guy, it would be easier for you to lean towards the embedded systems programming. So I'll advice you learn a few microcontroller architecture, circuit design basics and get an electronics development board (Arduino, Raspberry Pie, Beaglebone, e.t.c), then practice, practice, practice!!!
