when u slander odas,u lower UR'"own" prestige. I'm not here in support of anY randy goats in form of one Dr Bello/Prof Waidi.If the said lecturer had upgrade her result,she'll kip quiet.U missed ur test,fine.Ur best bet is to resit it/read to pass ur exam not going around knocking lecturer "door mouth"/kneeling down to do magomago.Dis is why I like them Deeper life girls.U failed,U resit.Simple

You are jumping in to conclusions too fast. No where was it stated that the girl was seeking for upgrade of her result for missing a test. If truly she missed a test, there is nothing wrong in meeting the lecturer involved to notify him/her. The lecturer at his/her discretion can reschedule a test for her or award her a score in relation to her previous performance or at worst outrightly tell her there is nothing to be done than the zero she got for being absent.

That is why i advocate the govt. should build more science and tech schools, not more quaranic/islamic schools.

When people get so entrenched in religious doctrine, they typically turn to extremist when they have little or no western education.

Amosun no dey do anything! All this na wash wash!! Ogun State is known for its bad roads!! Sometimes I wonder weda the government of Ogun no dey see road? Ogun is a neighboring State to Lagos and it still look as bad as it is. I was in Ogun in Dec 2015 and hated it sooo much!!! bad roads everywhere!! In the areas called Matogun, Alagbado, Akute and Oke-Aro, All crappy!!

The governor of Ogun State need to wake up and help his people!!! This people(govt) forget they will leave office someday, get old and see the mess they had opportunity to amend but did not. Lagos may not be all that good but its waaaaaay better than Ogun!
my 2cents.

He cant fix all the roads in Ogun state till he finishes his tenure, he has done considerably well on roads, in fact he has been derisively called "titilari" governor. It is quite unintelligent to think because you saw a couple of bad roads, the governor has done nothing. Are you aware of the state of roads within the state pre 2011 when he came in? Fashola didnt fis all bad roads in Lagos during his 8 years tenure, same way Ambode wont fix all the bad roads till 2023.

Nigeria is terribly sick at the moment, She is one of the doctors treating Nigeria.

You op is like the sick patients relative who thinks the doctor is incompetent because the patient is admitted in the hospital, and lying critically ill in the intensive care unit.

This Mr Karma sef

less than 1% of boys grow taller after age 20, infact after age 19, most boys stop growing in height, for girls , by age 16-17.

He cant be older than 14 in this picture.

We need practical solutions, not the usual cliche of free education that Awolowo did some 50 years ago. What was the population of students in public primary and secondary schools then? How many state owned tertiary institutions were available then? If there was any? what was the population of such tertiary institutions?

I dont think he is selling the schools by the way, i feel he plans to divest a part of the responsibilities of the state to private hands, which i think if done in good faith will yield favourable results. Govt supervision of the human resources in public schools and even recruitment have failed and will always fail because of the 'i dont care attitude' of an average govt. worker to his/her job.

Politically correct ideas are not necessarily the solution to correct the rot in the system.

hedonistic:
Hard times or underperforming governments bring out the 'shine' in a competent minister of information. In such trying situations, the minister's endearing manner of communicating with the public in a charismatic, likeable, persuasive manner (even if slightly dishonest) would somehow improve the public's perception of the government. All of this is where Lai has failed woefully. He has not been able to make the transition from an opposition party attack dog to a government minister of information whose party is in power. There are massive differences in job description, stylistic requirements, and general approach between these two starkly different roles.

His repugnant face alone is a turn off as it rankles beyond what I can describe in words. When he opens his mouth he fouls up the entire atmosphere and inspires nothing but disgust and contempt. Absolutely nothing likeable or believable about the man.

A more charismatic and competent minister would have made a LOT of difference.

I understand your plight, Once you are putting on a lens of hatred to view someone, whatever (s)he says is putrid.

At the ministerial screening, he simply took a bow for a reason. He is good at what he does.Although the minority leader was quick to label him a propagandist. Transitioning from a party's publicity secretary to his current position meant he has earned a large pool of enemies from the other divide at his former role. Many have even maligned him for saying the Govt has technically defeated the BH, but if any sensible reasons what technical defeat is, he was not out of line.

There was a reason the widely admired Dora Akunyili lost a chunk of respect during the trying times of Yaradua's sickness, although she tried to redeem her image at the tail end of the Yaradua debacle. Hard times do not bring out the shine in a minister of information. NEVER. It sinks them if they are not competent.

Lai Mohammed by a long mile.

It is quite hard to defend the govt in this trying time of the economy.

quite disheartening !. He messed up big time, and i would really want to know what is in his mind about the herdsmen.

Most states are discovering these ghosts because the FG compelled them to conduct the exercise after the Bail out.

She has a kind of public confidence that way surpasses her age.

For those screaming she should focus on education, i dont think what she is doing should affect her education. Infact she can "home school".

Brands can leverage on her mass followership base.

Enough of this nonsense !

I am sure there is massive shortage of STEM (science, technology, egineering and maths) schools and teachers in the state. Enough of quranic bullshiit, there are more than enough almajiri teachers to teach quran to people of the state.

In the neighbouring Jigawa state, the total numbers of doctors is less than 20, and some local governments do not have a single doctor.

Fayose now inspecting projects, I guess when the project is completed in osun, it would be moved to ekiti.

Ekiti is not witnessing stomach infrastructure any longer talk less physical infrastructure. After 2018, Ekiti will look back and the bulk of them will laugh at their 2014 poll decision.

pple like u prefer a molester to take ur sis and be paying u dollars ,,,,,,than 4 u and ur sis to be in darkness and be set free some day

Dont be gullible, those guys are fighting for their pocket, the likes of Asari dokubo and tompolo are now billionaires, they are not fighting for the common good. What is paining these set of criminals is that the stolen crude oil they get access to in setting up illegal refineries is no longer accessible.
Excluding the generic FG allocation, Governors from Oil rich states earn 13% oil derivation. The current FG @ the onset of its administration pledged to clean up lands in the niger delta, starting from Ogoni. Remind me if was an ijaw man or Hausa man that was president from March 2010 - May 2015 ? Stop reveling in foolishnesss.

tankara1010:
NDA are very caring to have wished our children "Happy Children's Day". If you read their press releases they are very careful of not hurting civilians and even military.

Are you kidding? They are killing lots of people by their actions, even babies yet to open their eyes in the hospitals incubator. They have thrown the nation to darkness, and some of you with the brain of a toddler gets excited at every bombing.

'
WELCOME MOVE U SAY.. OK LETS SAY I AGREE WITH ALL YOUR GIBBERISH ... THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE A LAST RESORT REGULATOR AND NOT A PROVIDER OF SERVICES.. THEN WHY DO WE HAVE TO SPEND SO MUCH TO MAINTAIN THE SO CALLED OVER BLOATED REGULATOR ....OOK FINE EVEN IF LAGOS IS IN A CLASS ALL BY ITSELF .. IS OYO ANY DIFFERENT FROM OGUN.. WHAT IS AMOSUN DOING RIGHT... IS AJIMOBI THAT CLUELESS ..
IS IT SO BAD THAT THE ENTIRE GOVT APPARATUS CANNOT SUCCESSFULLY MANAGE SCHOOLS..

THEN HE AND HIS TEAM SHOULD ALL QUIT AND GO HOME .. WE DO NOT NEED GOVT IN OYO STATE... WHATS THE USE... OF ALL THE ALLOCATIONS..IF THE MOST BASIC OF INSTITUTIONS CANNOT BE EFFECTIVELY MANAGED .. COMMON SECONDARY SCHOOL..

IF HE CLAIMS THERE IS BAD MANAGEMENT..THEN CHANGE IT ..AFTER ALL WE VOTED FOR CHANGE... GET NEW PEOPLE INTO THE SYSTEM TO MAKE THINGS WORK.... NOT SELL IT TO YOURSELVES ...

WHY THROW THE BABY AWAY BECOS THE BABY AND BATH WATER IS DIRTY...WHY NOT JUST CHANGE THE BATH WATER AND GIVE HIM A CLEAN BATH

AM DISGUSTED AND AMAZED AT HOW LOW THIS GUYS WILL GO TO SHOW INCOMPETENCE.... TOTALLY DISGUSTED..

THIS IS AN EASY WAY OUT FOR A LAZY GOVT ... I REPEAT ... LAZY GOVT...THAT LACKS WILL... RESOLVE .. AND INNOVATION....

ITS SO SAD THIS IS COMING FROM THE SUPPOSED HEART OF THE YORUBA RACE WELL KNOWN TO BE ROOTED IN THE BASIC PRINCIPLE OF FREE EDUCATION...

it is people like me and you that makes up management of the school, that school inspector who didn't do his/her job well enough That lazy teacher who only taught students thrice instead of thirteen in a term, that parent /guardian who fails to attend any PTA meeting of his/her wards. That parent who fails to monitor academic performance of his/ her ward. That govt body members of staff in charge of recruitment of teachers who recruited 'Dundee' in the name of govt teacher

We show ' I don't care attitude' as govt. Workers and wonder why anything govt. Touches fail.
Let the supervision of the schools be in private hands, and the school performance will gradually improve. Most of the private schools teachers earn way less than their counterparts in public schools,yet the teachers In private schools are 'forced' to give optimal best in teaching students. Public school teachers are now scared to take aptitude test for fear of being exposed. The Edo state teacher who couldn't read simple court affidavit she declared is still fresh.

bettercreature:
The man is very stewpid,selfish and arrogant,he is doing lot of project,even federal government projects but refused to pay workers

That means he knows how to prioritise. I guess he has prioritized 4 million osun citizens over 70,000 + state workers. I guess workers at project site are paid by contractors. At the end of his tenure, posterity will judge him. Life would have been easy if decisions were all in binary form of 0 and 1.

ade2008:
With this new Oyo state government policy, there will be large number of secondary schools dropouts in Oyo. what's the essence of governance ,if they find it hard to fund basic education. Even health is in shambles,bad roads, decaying infrastructure everywhere. The question is why is black man like .

Of what use is a ss3 graduate from those public schools with majority earning over 5 F9's in their WASSCE exams? Most of the public school graduates are at best jss 3 standard.

Great decision, i want to see it judiciously implemented.

Public private partnership is the way to go with the public schools, or missionary schools be returned to their previous owners.

There is no need to be politically correct on education affairs. It is time for practical and workable solutions.

You need base to neutralise acid, water wont work as well as a bar soap. I learnt that in my chemistry class, grab a soap ( toilet soap) it has got base in it. acid +base = salt + water

My mischievous chemistry set it as an objective question many many years ago.

12 months down, About 30 months left before election. 30 days in politics can change a lot, talkless of 30 months. No doubt it has been a turbulent past 12 months for the buhari regime, 30 months still at stake.

By Mid 2018, the stage will be close to set, and opinions and decisions would have started to set on who seats in Aso rock by may 29, 2019.

Do not forget that close to 10 million nigerians will benefit DIRECTLY from the allocated 500 billion naira in the social scheme of the 2016 budget.

those 10 millions have electoral value oooooo. All in all, it is too early to be discussing an election that the earliest time it can hold is dec. 2018

slimfit1:
Ambode 50 can you do mathematics at all how many people would 50 take when we have 25 to 30 million people living in Lagos 50 too small for Lagos. 200 at least.

I didnt know the LASG withdrew all commercial buses in lagos to donate 50 buses, cos that is what your statement implies

The boko haram man arrested with her is not among those in that gathering

she found her missing phone, and who knows maybe he has found his missing rib too.

emmysam2:
Am still trying to figure out how a "prized article " in captivity can be allowed to wander off alone in the forest, all in the name of going to fetch firewood. It doesn't add up by my rekorning. The story is half truth or not true.
Was she sent to fetch firewood alone? And with her baby too?? That would be a prelude to escape, and the Boko Haram terrorists who have held on to these girls wouldnt allow such silly loophole.
I think the girl was deliberately released for some unknown reasons.

couldn't you read and discover she was not arrested alone? she had someone tailoring her. Many of you have a one track fixated mind. Once you conceive anything in your mind, everyother glaring fact after that fails to register in your mind. It is a sign of an educated illiterate.

fiizznation:
Please I want my Niger/Delta brothers and sisters to stop accusing the northerners of owning and controlling "their oil" when in fact and truth, the oil blocks are owned by multinational companies. I think the Niger/deltans should direct their cries at the "parasitic" multinationals.

This thread is a rejoinder to the particular thread below. I just couldn't believe what I was seeing there. Honestly many Nigerians are ignorant.

https://www.nairaland.com/3109832/iyc-wants-unfair-allocation-oil

Several Nigerians are ignorants, but a greater majority of these sorts choose to keep believing the falsities even when confronted with fact. They are proudly ignorant and choose to believe their lies.

Negotiating with terrorist is setting a wrong precedence. Let the battle reign jor.

There can be no end with negotiating with terrorist, and humans greed can not be satisfied. GEJ the son of the soil rewarded those criminals with mouth watering pipeline protection contracts, coupled with the amnesty package from the yaraduas regime, yet crude oil theft was at the highest in gej's regime, and there were several cases of pipeline vandalism.

op, how old are you?

Have you ever heard of average production rate for oil producing countries? Nigeria produces average of 2 million barrels /day. Your assignment is to find out what others produce daily, when you are true, you will feel fooolish with your calculations.

What you have done is like Mr A's wife assuming Mr A should be earning the same salary with Mr B, since both Mr A & Mr B work in the same company.

MrDavidson:
But don't forget that Qatar for an example, has a population of less than 2 million people, Saudi Arabia has less than 30 million, and Kuwait less than 4 million, etc. I'm not trying to make up excuses for Nigeria's many failures and profligacy, but these need be considered too.

dont mind Nigerians with their baseless comparison. Saudi Arabia produces over 9 million barrels daily, that is close to 5 times the oil we produce daily, and it has like 15% of Nigeria's population , it has a thriving religious tourism industry.

In fact , the price of pms in saudi is no longer what the op stated.

Monimatic:


Only APC Zombies will believe that Fuel price will crash.
Nothing goes up and comes down in Nigeria

Cement sold at 2,800 at some point in 2014

We were a net imprter of cement as at then, today Nigeria is a net exporter of cement. Cement only recently increased to 1,500 from 1,300.


The moment Nigeria can refine its crude oil locally, and surpass the local demand, the price will tumble

greatgod2012:
Instead of #12.62increment on fuel, it's now #58.50 increment! Haba! on a litre of fuel! What offense have we committed to deserve this type of insensitivity from the govt we voted for? What have we done wrong for them to inflict this type of hardship on us? How do they expect us to survive with this our #18000 minimum wage. Apart from the increment in the price of fuel, the price of everything in the market have skyrocketed.
Please, even if you don't pity us, please, pity our children now. How are we going to meet their basic needs for God's sake.



Fayose, love your analysis.

Analysis to deceive the gullible.

Marketers who import will no longer get dollar @ official rate to import fuel.
