Why should I answer the question myself? You are the one making the claim. Meanwhile, you haven't answered the following:

If u say that there is no certainty that terrorists are communicating with govt with cell phones, what now makes u think there is certainty that the terrorists are communicating among themselves with cellphones?

Is there any record that turning off cell towers affected their activities?

Before this last incident in Kaduna, what steps did the govt take to neutralise the bandits?

If sheik gumi knows where bandits are, how come all the security agencies in Nigeria don't no where bandits are?

Are the bandits ghosts?

OneCandleAway:
Haven't made up my mind yet but Tinubu is out of it.

I want someone that can tackle this northern insecurity and deal with these northerners that only contribute problems but can share in the revenue generated by the South.

lexy2014:
But why did the govt force Nigerians to get NIN? Isn't it because of these type of scenarios? Why did govt shut down communication towers in some northern states some time ago if mobile phones don't come into play?

You quoted the part that sooted your emotions. Why leave out this below?

“We acknowledged it and we appreciate it. But what we want to add is that the government should speed up the process of discussion with them (terrorists) so that they can come out to release our people soonest. This is our appeal now,” he added.

lexy2014:
You just spoke my mind and it's d same questions I have asked several times in previous posts. The level of intelligence of people in this govt is less than that of nursery school kids. They blocking lines for NIN all in d name of security yet using the same phone to negotiate with terrorists

You're a bloody Bastard. Bye. Thought you were updated in modern warfare.

Don't you have Google?? If you have anything against Buhari, go and meet him. We got a modern chopper here used by the American marines but you still complaining with your bloody dumb fuckin mouth.

Check my previous posts i don't normally insult people but you're a bloody Bastard to be a coward and traitor to your country. How dare you say that the AH 1z cobra is not top 10? Are you okay? Browse the top 10 combat helicopters. You'll just be typing before thinking. You're a bloody fuckin jerk.

There is nothing like AH 1z Apache. It's AH 64 apache. Check it and come back foool.

DaveDGreat:
I wouldn't mind. Although I don't really know how to do this but I have replied the mail.

Happy Sunday man.

Ban Open Grazing and end senseless killings, but Buhari was more concerned about Grazing routes and promoting RUGA, now non state actors are taking full advantage.

Dear Sir,

May God bless you for this. Even if Him nor want bless you before, make Him bless you twice and without delay.

It's only a fool that would ignore this advice of yours.

While in the university, I just wanted to graduate due to the hardship I was going through then. Lecturers rarely knew me. Except in final year when I was opportuned to lead two teams on research (project team and engineering design teams) both under very cerebral professors. In fact, my HOD only knew who I was when a company wanted to recruit the best students and he had to call me since I graduated amongst the best.

Recently, I became interested in foreign scholarships and saw the essence of research experience, publications, and leadership experiences. Na so I go back go publish my project. Did research assistant for free (it was very very very stressful) and working on other publications too.

When I wanted to start applying for grad school, my undergrad project supervisor was angry that I didn't inform him that I was having issues getting my transcript. This professor used his influence to help me get it on time from a Federal University ooo. I cried tears of joy. You need to see the strong recommendations I got from two professors, my HOD and 3 other lecturers. They school will request for 2 recommendations and I'll supply 3 Which school nor go respect HOD and professors recommendations?

By God's grace, it's paying off. I applied and get MS positions with funding. The last time, the professor (over there) was telling me she would be glad I join her and that she would do all within her power to help with funding. I just shock. I just collected my transcript this January ooo and applied after deadline while some I just hurriedly applied cos deadline was fast approaching.

If I tell you that I never knew about scholarships till last year, you go shock and LinkedIn made it possible cause I saw my classmate from another dept wey don JAPA. I regretted not knowing this while in school.

Now, I tell the young people in my dept that they should "chingum" a lecturer and beg him to allow them participate in his/her research, they ignore me. I would have kept quiet but I now see my mistakes and I don't want them to repeat it.

NOTE

Please if you're an undergraduate in any University in Nigeria, don't joke with that our oga I quoted just said. Don't joke with your lecturers thinking that you would need them after school, Las Las you would always come back.

Please be humble, be kind and respect them.

Ebubu:
thanks for the advice. I’ll reflect on it

stevedeey:
Had I not changed my course from Agronomy to Computer Science I'd have regretted. Thank God for the decision I made. God did not allow Lautech to change my destiny - I picked computer science they gave me Agronomy, a name I had not hear about until when I was offered a provisional admission into dept of Agronomy...agro wetin? Mo ya Japa.... Funny enough some people were encouraging me to stay at Agronomy saying that's what God wants for you and bla bla bla...

AntiBMC:
Chai. This set of people in govt are the most backward in history.

What's stopping FG from doing their own lobbying? Always looking for who to blame for their uselessness and failure.

As if Ghana needed to do much, to get companies to leave Nigeria for them. Who will choose a Terrorist-ridden country, with no constant power supply, clueless leaders, stvpid policies/ exorbitant taxes and a totally failed economy over a country with constant light, no terrorism, fast growing economy, good business environment and actual leaders?

This is one of the reasons why Ndigbo need the Presidency thing badly.

You can see that since this government came in, most of the projects has been to his region.

Post-utme is partly because of the prevalent cheating and "miracle centres" not necessarily because of space sir.
No one is saying Private universities can't perform. I believe in possibilities.

derecho:
I started laughing when I got to 200million people as if the 200million people are the ones writing Jamb... As much as I won't want to dwell on that,the 200million includes the millions of graduates out of the universities and many who aren't planning to even go to university. So when next you bandy figures think well.

We've not even talked about polytechnics o.

Now to address the essentials,
How many people are in our Federal universities? And who scored 305 in jamb, passed post-utme and was refused admission simply because no sufficient admission space? Telling lies won't help you.

The bolded is subjective so I'll skip that.





This is a weak argument because it shows you don't understand the issue.Ask yourself the number of students in those private universities. Do they even have the requisite faculties to accommodate those competitive courses? Or you think we are talking about just going to courses that you can study online?

Oga , we are talking about Universities not coaching centres.



I wonder the logic in this. So why have more schools without accreditations? How is this solving the problem if not compounding it? I just tire for this kain reasoning.


Your last point is so watery. So the government should encourage those profiteering from the destruction of our universities?Encourage moneybags to fleece the already impoverished citizens?

Finally, if you have the money spend it on quality. You can even travel abroad or go the established ones like Covenant University.

derecho:
It's okay to differ but make sure you contribute without being rude.
It's unfortunate you can't see how abandoning public universities and allowing alternatives will affect them.

By the way,
[b]Did it occur to you that these schools won't be free?How many Nigerians will be able to afford them?[/b]Where will the manpower come from?New graduates or the ones from the public you refused to pay?

Is decongesting the schools the problem or equipping them with modern facilities and paying the staff? Your suggestion is tantamount to destroying the ones they have and allowing substandard ones start.This will further waterdown the quality of higher education in Nigeria.

Need I remind you that it'd take time for those schools to get full accreditation?
Maybe you think every private university is Covenant.

Friend, it is not as simplistic as you are making it look.There are ripple effects and no one who loves this country should support anyone who waste resources on useless ventures and become frugal when it comes to education.

The Simple logic should have been improve/preserve the ones you have, equip them,motivate the academics and staff. Those 12 new universities can wait, we already have
43 Federal universities
48 State universities and
79 Private universities many of which you'll be shocked if you visit

stanisbaratheon:
The insensitivity of this government reeks to high heavens. Public universities are on strike due to poor funding and here they are trying to fund/establish new universities.

What point is this government trying to prove?? Or is the government mocking the citizens??

Kokaine:
do you see how infuriating this news is to me. Why are they opening new private universities when the government ones go on strike every time. How many Nigerians can pay the fees for private schools now. Are they trying to eradicate university education for the average Nigerian now?

Prettychild:
It’s not their fault. When ASUU keeps going on strike what do you expect? With time ASUU will loose its relevance because private universities will soon become affordable for the masses, everybody’s concern will just be the certificate and not the environment. When you tend to overdo things, you begin to loose your relevance
