Chairman say he read Banking and Finance. But waitooh, if man tear first class for maths or physics, nothing for am ? I say if for example, if na maths or physics, man get first class, na how ego be like?

SamSara01: I studied Banking and Finance, I just completed a professional course and I'm now a Chartered Banker and no I'm not frustrated. The class of degree I'm carrying as just not so far lived up to the hype students, lecturers and professionals alike have given it.

KeleBaby: Ooh! Maybe i shouldnt have said am a born again. Ooh well, you can call me names for all i care i am not moved. I asked a simple question, i didnt ask for a sermon. Anyway i know what i am doing and i know what i want out of this relationship.

What do you want out of the relationship? Marriage or enjoyment for fvuuking things?

KeleBaby: No, he will not have it like food.

You no serious self!

Sike: Got the same sms too. But i'll reserve my comment till my ATM Card got trapped.

Gragra! Wetin you go fit do if e happen?

ACM10: Access Bank is the worst bank in Nigeria in terms of delivery of service. They issued me a new ATM(verve) card with a wrong pin. I later applied for a change of PIN, yet no response from them. Anytime I visits their bank, they will apologise and ask me to fill a new PIN reissue form. One month has passed, yet nothing happened. It's been a frustrating experience. I will wind down my business with them in the next two months and proceed to close my account with them. I can't stand their inefficiency.

Abeg update me anytime they give you new pin. I bank at Access Bank and also have the problem as you.

I love this thread; it is gingering my swag as a teacher. I will never spare the rod and spoil my pupils. Am going to use carrot and stick approach just like GEJ and OBJ. Thank you OP.

Kanwulia: Your place of birth determines our right of abode!
Depends on where you were born.
In the US. . . MOST FATHERS ARE NOT PRESENT BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE BIRTHS OF THEIR CHILDREN.
They are still AMERICAN CITIZENS!

So, where were you born?

Am a Nigerian and am born in Nigeria.

Cannot having the signature of the father on child's Birth Certificate deny the child some legal right as a citizen?

Though his name and my Mum's name are in the certificate. Every other details were rightly filled including my Mum's signature as demanded but the only thing missing is my Dad's signature.
The only reason why my Dad's signature is not on that certificate may be due to his absence during the time of my birth. What advice do you people have for me?

McLuhan: How I wish Nigerians would think just for once! Alas, we are not very good at using our God-given cerebral powers. Do we need a soothsayer to tell us that a country that has the kind of universities we have in Nigeria can never be anything but a perennial third world country? Does it require a rocket scientist to figure out that the Federal Government is mortgaging the future of our children by leaving education in the doldrums and paying our Senators the highest legislative salaries in the world? Why do we suppose Ghana is investing 30% of its budget on education? Why, pray tell me, is Nigeria ranked so abysmally low in almost all international development scales, such as the recently released Mo Ibrahim African leadership rankings, while smaller countries like Mauritius, Botswana, and Cape Verde are rated so high? Is it too much of an intellectual leap for us to realise that a responsible government does not pick and choose which of its agreements to implement and which to ignore? When will we learn to hold the real wreckers of our country to account? Is it not madness for people to attribute the rot in Nigeria's education sector to the same hapless lecturers who virtually have to coax water out of stone in order to give our children any semblance of qualitative education? I am so exasperated by the tragically contorted reasoning that I have found in some of the comments regarding this ASUU strike. If those comments represent the opinions of a cross-section of Nigerians, then I shudder to think what our future as a nation must be. I pity Nigeria.

Forget them(ASSU)! They are all thieves and corrupt lecturas. Na dem go tire. How dem go demand that kind big money? Ole!

ugowell: Hmmmmm!!!!!
Each time I read abt ASUU strike and FG I feel terribly sad and weakened.
If we take a look at d decadence our social, political and economic system, the level of corruption and many other vices, one will discover dat all these unthinkable and immoral acts all started from our universities..
The reason why I said all these things started from our universities is bcoz.......
Our politician are products of our University settings, our parents are also products of this same institutions and finally our lecturers are also product of the rotten university system.
If u take a look at d society at large u will discover that all these vices started from the university settings.
So I guess our president understands ASUU's better Dan we do bcoz he was 1 of dem b4 he went into politics.
So our president knws exactly what dey are fighting for and nt what we tink dey are fighting for.
As my father once told me that its only a thief dat will knw hw to catch a thief.
He also told me dat if two pple are eating and NEPA suddenly takes d light and deyin start lookin for a lamp, it means dat dey don't trust eachother...
What am trying to draw out here is dat ASUU is scrambling for light coz it does nt trust d FG.
So if we really want to cleanse our society from these immoral attitude my brothers and sisters we have to start from our universities coz dats where all these problems started from..........

Thank you brother. Not only the university. It ecompasses every body -followers and leaders. We all have to stop being corrupt and Nigeria go come better.

alexleo: Hahaha...these children sef. Na wa for una reasoning o. Let me tell you that these lecturers have not been paid since 2 months ago. Yet they are not ready to be intimidated. They have experienced this kind of thing before so they are so used to it. Some of them are already doing partime lecturing in the private universities around, some are doing theirs in neighbouring African countries, some are doing other consultancy jobs or business and they are getting good pay. You think they ll sit down and be waiting for FG to pay them? I have a lot of them as friends and they are living their normal life irrespective of the no work, no pay. The demonstration you are seeing here was done by just a chapter of ASUU and it was a medium to enlighten the public on what they are fighting for. Not as people who are hungry and crying to be paid. Pls read OP well and digest it.

Samchuky: I don't trust either the FG or ASUU, but i fear ASUU more than the FG.
Whatever amount of money the govt pumps into our tertiary institutions; some of these lecturers will stil remain unteachable and that means that they wont just improve.

Guy, I dey your side joor!

alexleo: Which problem do I have? I graduated in the 90's. An employer of labour now. I know Nigeria politicians and their dubious attitude very very well that's why I am telling you students to be careful of your support for them. Supporting them has no good to yield for you.
ASUU is not ready to be intimidated even with the no work, no pay thing. Federal govt cannot do anything more than that to ASUU. They can't sack them either. If they sack them, where will they get the required number of professors and Phd holders to replace them? Currently, the number of profs and PHDs on ground are not even enough for the universities we have in Nigeria. So what do you gain by blaming ASUU that knows these facts and are not ready to shift ground? Is it not better you people push the govt to do their part so that you get back to school? Or you prefer staying at home and blaming ASUU endlessly?

castrokins: Agreement Was Signed On Projections. The Reality Now Is That It's Not Implementable. There's Need For Re-negotiations.

Thank you brother. You sabi the matter wey dey ground.

bxcode: If u are not supporting ASUU, then u are supporting our corrupt government, put yourself in ASUU shoes, a senators monthly allowance can comfortably pay the salaries of 20 professors or more, depending on their level and institution, too bad its d students that are suffering.

Nothing like that! ASSU is wicked.

Littlehooper: IT CAN'T BE SO.
ANY GOVERNMENT IN POWER WILL HONOUR ANY AGREEMENT ON GROUND LIKEWISE DEFICIT..
OKONJO IWEALA IS D PERSON BEHIND THIS ASUU ISSUE....

She is the finance minister. She knows where it is good for our country in terms of finance. Let her do her job.

3ace: I really don't see anything wrong in the above demands by ASUU. These are for the benefit of our educational system. A while ago, I saw market women on TV who do not really understand the real issue. FG is selfish, insensitive and wicked. Their private pockets are their utmost concern. What a pity!

Forget them(ASSU)! They are all thieves and corrupt lecturas. Na dem go tire. How dem go demand that kind big money? Ole!

Emzybrown: Is it the administration of gej that signed the agreement? ASUU should start a renegotiation since there has been a change of government.

I support u brother.

alexleo: Agreement is agreement. FG must honour the agreement they signed with them. All this one you people are making here against ASUU is just noise that cannot help you. If the FG feels for you students they should ve gone further to keep an agreement they signed. They have kept you people in the house and you think by blaming ASUU your problem will be solved. Keep dreaming.

Forget them(ASSU)! They are all thieves and corrupt lecturas. Na dem go tire. How dem go demand that kind big money? Ole!

timpaker:
I support ASUU. The government should honour the 2009 agreement or no lectures.
But I feel that instead of this rally they ought to be doing more on advocacy and sensitization as the general public have no idea on what the rift between ASUU and FG is all about.

Forget them(ASSU). They are all thieves and corrupt lecturas. Na dem go tire. How dem go demand that kind big money? Ole!

Sormeh: If the FG actually signed the much talked about agreement in 2009, there's no way they could have done so without understanding its implication. So, it is the FG who is hypocritical here for failing to honour the document. These people are fighting for us all. When those idi©ts are embezzling up there with impunity nobody calls for heads. Abeg let's fight for quality education once and for all.

FINMGR: We can loan you that money, if you fixed the N6million naira with us at 11%. no other collateral will be requested. PM me

Which bank is that please?

I have been battling to understand or know the English name of a particular leafy vegetable normally called green in Nigeria here. It is used mostly for cooking rice. Please who can tell me the specific English name or scientific name of that leaf? I really want to know. I have googled all day searching for the English name of that leaf, yet I can't find it.

Afro connect: This is very wrong,why waste so much efforts to apprehend them to release them.these are killers,they should all be killed.Jonathan stop playing politics with our security.

Bros no be lie. The chiarman dey play politics with our life.

Richiez: This thread is the meeting point for nairaland maths gurus...i dare you all to ask me a question in mathematics without me having an answer to them, LETS START

Father reduced the
quantity of food
bought for the
family by 10%
when he found
that the cost of
living had increased
by 15%. Thus the
fractional increase
in the family food
bill now is what?

Solve it, maths guru!

Adol16: Maths gurus pls help me solve the simultaneous equations

x + y =5
