please make up your mind. you cannot come here running your mouth about naija this naija that then tell us your siblings are different

go and drink water.
one school out of hundreds of tertiary institutions still don't reflect brilliance.

AjanleKoko:
Actually Wale Adetugbo, who you refer to, went to Unilag. Not OAU.

i doubt it. . . .
wale went to ife unless you are talking about another wale!

dayokanu:
My University experience is in OAU while most students graduated with grades they deserved/worked for

any oau graduate deserves my respect.
scaling the first hurdle from the 100 level to 200 especially in their sciences is an acid test on it's own.

Cultism and the likes, are not peculiar to eastern universities, they seem to be the norm among Nigerian universities. Isolating and denigrating eastern universities it's what i find ridiculous. During my undergraduate days in Nigeria, even though those things were there, they did not by any means affect my activities as a student.

i will let oau students reply this. . . . .
as far as i know, it's the only public school in the whole of nigeria without cultism problem. their lecturers are sadists too. . .they are not fazed with money, etc.

considering the fact that as a nigerian student he definitely passed via occultism and settling (na so u talk am) should we be suprised?

he went to oau. . . .there was no cultism in his school.

i hear telnet only take 2'1? how the guy take do am?so how many people did he kiss arse for before he got into telnet?

telnet take 2'1 only from the students of other schools.
a 3rd class student from ife would get to telnet without stress if he knows his stuffs.

wale(the first ccie man in the whole of west african region - a telnet employee) passed out with a 3rd class from oau.
i have been told 3rd class in any engineering course in oau is equivalent to first class of most federal schools.

That's hardly unique to Nigeria. Most Indian employers believe that 85% of Indian graduates are unemployable. The same India where some Fortune 100 companies are hiring CEOs from. The much-vaunted hi-tech India

if 85% of indian graduates are unemployable usin the indian employers' yardstick then 99.999% of nigerian graduates should not even apply for jobs.
if you take the annoying accents of indians out of the equation, they know their stuffs. they are utterly brilliant. they are hard-working, dedicated, serious minded and they don't always take the short-cut routes readily like most nigerians.

davidylan:
dont mind them. they just bleat out names any how. My uncle studied Computer science at OAU in the early 1970s, he never saw a computer or used one until he started his masters deg in the US later in 1981. He used to tell us the joke of how he beat everyone in the theoretical aspect of his first job interview . . . imagine the utter shock of his eventual employers when they invited him to test his ideas on a real computer and he had no idea how to operate one.

utter shock!
a man that could analyse all the working mechanisms of a computer theoretically couldn't operate a computer.
that's the horror movie with nigerian graduates but they will beat their chests here claiming king-kong on most of the things they have never seen.

chamber2:
Seriously, were you denied admission into any eastern school?

denied an admission into eastern school? now, why would i wanna graduate from such schools where violence is the first course students read?

Casting aspersion on all eastern universities just because you were denied admission is not the right thing to do. I studied in an eastern Nigerian university, but i can confidently say that the picture you are trying to paint is far from reality. The last time i checked Futo and UNN are still eastern universities.

of course, i know you won't be proud to tell us the shyte that goes down in those schools.
come on. . . .be a man. . . . .you want to say you never heard of cult wars in your school? lecturers harassed/intimidated? female students sleeping around to cop high grades?

Get your facts right before going public with them.

it's an open secret!
the fact that you deny it here does not make my facts untrue.

I did dude. To accuse someone else of being dumb. How rich. Bill gates had a 1590 out of 1600 in the SATs and got admitted to Harvard. So much for using him as the poster child for 2-2 graduates.
He started out using elemtary school computers as far back as 1968, where would a contemporary nigerian have such a chance? Ode.

especially when most computer engineering graduates never saw a router in their entire years in nigerian universities. . . .
my cousin went to oau ile-ife between 1994 and 1999 to study electronic/electrical engineering. his first experience with a computer was in 1996 at the age of 20.
he would tell you the functions of a router but he did not see one until he graduated and started working for telnet in lagos.

Complete BS. How many eastern schools have you been to? You seem to have lost touch with reality. For you to have said there is ''no connection'' in the country you reside goes a long way to expose your naivete. Maybe you reside in heaven, where everything happens by words of mouth.

mostly all the eastern schools are corrupt. . . . .
who's going to connect who to a big job? the number of interviews you would do will expose you if you are half-baked.

Stop living on hearsay. Inasmuch as i would accept that people sleep with lecturers to make a 3rd, 2-2 or maybe 2.1 on rare occasions, i will find it difficult to believe that someone would sleep with lecturers to make a 1st class degree in any Nigerian university. Making a first class requires more than just a few As in a semesters. It demands consistent effort right from the first day of uni to the last day.

you have probably never heard of the rubbish happening in eastern schools.
any simpleton can come out with any grade - it depends on money, occultic associations or sleeping around.

oyb:
what nonsense - of course connections exist everywhere in the world. surely you know how many strings were pulled for george bush right from his days as an undergrad? does that change the fact that people like steve jobs got to where they are today?

there's no connection in the country i reside.
top grade students are identified even before they graduate by these employers holding seminars every session.
there's a graduate scheme too and they are promptly eased into the job market without stress. . . . there's a working system in place.

unlike nigeria. . . . .it's a jungle of dog eat dog.
a chaotic state.
a haven of crooks, touts and no do gooders.

these naija based boys get on my nerves with their inability to admit they operate in a fraudulent system.

university girls sleep with as many lecturers as possible to make first class and people worship their certificates and these same girls cannot solve a simple arithmetic problem or construct simple sentences in english.

you begin to wonder at the disconnect between the grades achieved and the personality standing before you.

So, what's the conclusion? 2-2s are better than 2.1 and 1st class right?

3rd class is better than 1st class in nigeria.
it depends on which school and which godfather you know.
you wanna tell me all those eastern schools and niger-delta where cultism is a religion and cultists force lecturers to drugs their grades actually produce brilliant students?

woetooam4j:
You are making little sense. Bill Gates never had to apply for a job. He would have been fine in Nigeria, connection or not

yea right!

So the 10,000 people who work in First Bank are all connected to OBJ, and all the 4,000 people who work in UBA are connected to Chief Nzeribe.

they all know somebody who knew someone and so on and so forth!
of course, some got there by their sheer brilliance but 80% got there by connections. . . .

at the end of the day, you go to most banks and interview the workers there and you would be amazed most of them did not even graduate in accounting or a financial course. . . . . .most of them did geography, history, yoruba but they are highly connected to chief nzeribe and swine olusegun obasanjo!

TV/Movies › Re: How Do I Break Into Nollywood As An Actress? by coogar: 10:00pm On Sep 09, 2011

Realstar86:
This topic must be exhausted by now, but unfortunately, all the discussions I found on it are slightly older posts, therefore I am seeking fresh and updated insights. I am a young woman, seeking to break into nollywood as an actress. I possess the innate talent (so I've been told by my acting instructors), the education (took acting and scriptwriting classes), and the physical appeal (beautiful). I spent a number of years in the United States, so I am highly fluent in the English language and my English is refined ( I am told that this is a desirable attribute in nollywood, but I'm not sure).The only thing missing is the opportunity to showcase my skills. If anyone has a strong lead on how I can connect with a bona fide director or producer in the industry or how I can break into the industry, I will greatly appreciate it.

N/B: I don't need any bullshitting or opportunists who only seek to exploit others. In addition, I took my time to study the craft, so I expect to work with someone who has, equally, studied their craft. Having clarified these points, all insights, advice, information etc will be immensely appreciated!

i believe it's the easiest industry to break into if you can do unprecedented acting. . . .
the industry needs sharon stone, paris hilton, grace jones, etc.
if you can up the ante and bare it all. . . . . .within 3 months, you will be bagging millions of naira at the speed of light.

that's actually a midfield battle.

Can you prove beyond reasonable doubt Messi's balance is solely down to steroids?

messi's incredible balance is the work of the steroids. . . .
people say he stopped taking it. . . . .as if it's a reasonable excuse.

when treating growth hormone deficiency the kid is dosed according to their height (the aim is to reach their "natural" height which is calculated by averaging the height centiles of their parents) and treatment is stopped once the growth plates in their bones fuse.

it's fairly obvious just looking at messi that he has received excessive gh-therapy. you can never rule out the possibility of messi overdosing on his prescriptions consciously or subconsciously .if you look close at his legs you will see that they have the shape of a cement factory labourer.

you can also compare the size of the muscles on his legs to the size of his muscles in his upper body. it's over dimensioned and that's a good indication of outside stimuli that only steroids could have facilitated. knocking messi off the ball becomes more difficult - something more achievable with ronaldo because cristiano's frame is more symmetrical.

It doesn't even matter how he got there. . . Whether steroids or akamu. The fact is he's THERE!

and he's ran to the ground by a better athlete with no steroids.

Why you dey modify your post na? Or have you now accepted Ronaldo can't lace Messi's corset?

messi cannot lace ronaldo's shoes. . . .he just plays in the best club on the planet. outside that club, messi is nothing!!

messi is not an athlete. . . .
his body strength got cooked up by loads of loads of steroids. . . .

messi thrives because you cannot easily knock him off the ball - a testament to the steroids he took making his lower body disproportionate to the upper body.
as you can see in the recent game against nigeria. he walked through the nigerian defence even after being tripped, fouled, pushed and shoved.

that is not a natural attribute. . . , the steroids made him do it.
cristiano is natural. . . . . .the bestest player on the planet. watch the video and see what it means to be a natural athlete. . . .no film tricks!

Well until he scores, his one-season wonder isn't sufficient for his name to be labelled in the same category as Drogba. .
Puhlease!

it saddens me that one of the best brain boxes in the chelsea towers is spewing fuckery. . . .

i said. . . . .

chicharito is better than any striker in chelsea.
cleverley, welbeck are rookies. . . . .united still have carrick, fletcher and anderson in their midfield.
the defence is rock solid with the emergence of smalling, phil jones, johnny evans, the brazilian twins. . .

i was just assessing united's strengths in comparison to chelsea's
as we speak, there's no striker with the same goal scoring prowess as chicharito. . . . i am not comparing their pedigree.
i am just saying united have enough ammo in their armoury upfront than chelsea. . . . .this season!!!

because drogba has scored 400 goals per season in seasons past does not mean he will repeat it again. . . .
drogba is now 33, he scored 13 goals in 46 apps last season and at this stage, you would expect his scoring ability to dry up.
chicharito is 23, he's not even in his peak yet. . . .so the comparison is now. . . . .not what happened when you were in diapers.
