Should education be appraised on the strictness involved before the reward or the quality of the education?
So tell me, a third class in Harvard is equal to what in the above universities.??
So u think a PhD program that lasted 8years is strictness (one of my lecturers ordeal) or stupidity and mediocrity.
I hate people saying this poo. Upon the whole wahala we put ourselves now....Nigerian universities for Africa is nothing but rubbish.. You better stop this rubbish comparisons because every student has their own story to tell. A university is only better than the other by qualitative education and pragmatic approach to human problems not outright wickedness that u call strictness.

Finally, someone who really thinks. It's only in Nigeria that students brag about suffering through school as though it's normal.

An incident at an airport really put me off.

This one time I was traveling by a certain airline - lets call it Amirates. My flight was going to be more than 24 hours, so lets just say I was very comfortably dressed. Now I enter the airport and started walking towards the business class queue to check in my luggage. One of the staff members approaches me and tells me please join another line - the one for Economy Class passengers. I wouldn’t have had an issue but I had paid for this ticket and I did not find that reasonable. I let him know that I was heading to the correct queue. He asked me to show my ticket. I did. He says he’s sorry, puts on those happy faces, says a thing or two and tells me to have a pleasant flight.

While this might not be a big deal, I really felt bad that how people have this biased perspective on how rich and successful people are supposed to look and behave and would not accept that looks do not define a person.

The things people will do for cheap popularity.

This question was asked on the American forum Quora. Yes, you could have asked the same question on Nairaland but you went as far as copying one of the most upvoted answers, claiming the experience as your own. This is deception, this is a lie. And it's just wrong!

Here's a link to the source: https://www.quora.com/Has-someone-treated-you-poorly-until-they-discovered-you-were-wealthy-and-or-successful/answers/27013430

Update: I see that the Op has now modified his post, referencing the source.

this is how it works..

if you help someone. that amount let say N50k. this 50k will enters your mavro account. and it grows at 30% a month. at the end of 30days it will be N70k. so if you request for help. someone will help you with the N70 cash out. the person that help you with 70k another person will help that one at 30days. then u too can help another again and again just like that.

Yes! This is clear. However, at no point is money paid to MMM. People pay into each other's accounts. So, the question is: how does MMM make their money?

The last time I checked she wasn't complaining.

And neither is Rita.

omas1:
but she is happily married.
The fine ones like Rita Dominic still dey fast and pray for husband .

Any topic regarding women, the next thing you guys mention is marriage. And it doesn't matter that Annie is married to a man who's had 4 children out of wedlock. She has a husband , therefore she must be 'happily married', right? Please!

NB: I'm not judging Annie, neither am I judging her husband.

I really wish Okene write a book about some of his adventure on the sea too.. I hopefully wish to meet him.

Seriously, of American screenwriters lay their first gers on his story, they will make a blockbuster out of it

See What I Found When I Opened Blue Band

This morning I decided to eat butter and bread after about a week of eating the butter, but when I opened the butter, I found this.
What does it mean?
Is it now bad for consumption?

There is nothing wrong with the blue band. You allowed crumbs of bread to fall into the blue band. The crumbs have begun to decay. Always apply your bread spead with a knife and do not allow bread crumbs to fall into the jar.

Thus world has got nothing for introverts...

How To Re-Arrange Your Home

I get your point. I learned this lesson the hard and painful way. However, I won't say the world has nothing for introverts. In many ways, the extraverts get things more easily.

By the way, I like your blog.

I am very glad that a good number of nairalanders are interested in working with the Nigeria police. We all know that our police force is riddled with corruption and malpractices. Haven't we all complained at one point or the other about the issue?

Now, some of us will get the opportunity to enter into the system and change things by being different. When you make it into the force, please do the right thing. It will not be easy to be upright in the midst of morally bankrupt people. But I have faith in you guys. For the sake of posterity, do the right thing. Posterity will judge us all.


I wish you the best in the screening exercise. Thank you.

This is a highly abhorrent act, and must be looked into

Pun? Nothing here sounds like pun. Do you know what pun is?

The bolded is true since (wo)man is not mere statistics, and those "valid points" won't be palatable to some people.

Thanks for the statistics.

Lol. Actually, I struggle to think of a good argument in favour of polygamy. I think it has some dire consequences. I'll be happy to hear your views though

menxer:
From your analysis, it means at say age 30-40, women out number men, which still leaves a large pool of potential wives in spinster-hood.

Are our ladies tolerant of themselves approaching 40 and still single?

How often do you find men in churches gather to pray for a life partner like women do?

As the OP, rightly pointed out, sometimes our ladies have (too) high expectations of what their "ideal husband" should be, thereby limiting the options of "real husbands" available to them (women).

No. according to the chart below, the population of Nigerian females only begins to lead that of males from about age 50. http://www.indexmundi.com/nigeria/age_structure.html

My point is this: for every unmarried female aged 30 - 40, there is a corresponding unmarried male. But because out society is less tolerant of unmarried women versus unmarried men, nobody talks about the unmarried men. And that explains why the unmarried women "gather in church to pray for life partner". Our society puts pressure on them.

Maybe there are other valid points in favour of polygamy, but 'population of men vs women' does not support that argument because women are not more than men.

charix:
She may act humble but all her jet-setting and celebrity-selfie taking ways prove to the average Nigerian that she is way above their level. When she tires of this DJ thing she'd settle into a corporate position as a top-level staff of a multinational company at best or a very successful indigenous company at worst.

Come on, don't make her feel sorry for being rich.

menxer:
Though this is a misplaced topic, I am of the same opinion.

We are deceived with the portion of the Bible that talks about a man being a husband of one wife, forgetting that it was specifically addressing a certain group of men, those that aspired for the office of the bishop. (1 Timothy 3:1)

Meaning, If one has no such aspirations, one has no business limiting oneself to one wife thereby depriving other women of sharing in the joy.

And our women so indoctrinated builds a fantasy of it, that is at variance with reality of living.

If everybody begins to marry two wives, I think there will be wife scarcity. Almost all over the world, the male/birth ratio stands around 50-50. In fact, in Nigeria, at birth it is about 51-49 in favour of males. But as they age, the number drops (men don't live as long as women cos they take more risks, drive more, more involved in military, violence, hardwork, vices etc.)

In the olden days, it may have been OK for men to marry many wives since the women outnumberd men. Most societies required men to join the army and many died in wars (like in biblical times).

Today, I don't think it's really not really husband scarcity we experience. rather, I think it's spouse scarcity. Our society is a lot more tolerant of single men. Bachelors go unnoticed. The women are not so lucky.

I wonder. All the words mentioned are english words.If they were not meant to be used, how did they words come about? To me our pidgin english should be adopted as our lingua franca, because of its versatility - you are not tied to any strict rules of grammar: you are right as long as your listener understands you. The language is immaterial if the meaning is plain-lovely pidgin.

How can you adopt a language that has no rules of grammar as lingua franca? Imagine writing our laws in such a language.

How could you say that. Sentiments apart, the English language is a beautiful language. It is very rich.

As for pidgin, it is not standard. It even differs by region. People invent pidgin words anyhow.
