Education › Re: Sowore Calls For The Abolition Of JAMB, NYSC by daveP(m): 12:01pm On May 15, 2025
Opebiman:
Why should any student forget all he/she read for in just a few days ... 48 hrs is enough to revise and sit back . If you spent 3 weeks to write an exam and failed Nd you know you did not fail, you shouldn't have a problem taking a resit in 48 hrs.

You want JAMB scrap but you cannot propose one single replacement.. JAMB was created to actual structure the admission giving process in Nigeria.

Post UTME and NECO should be scrapped as it is corruption filled and unnecessary.

WAEC should upgrade to CBT
You are part of Nigeria's problems if this is how you reason.


International exams have weeks and months to prepare for exams but you're here justifying 48hr for an exam that if they fail, the Prof will brag about Anti-cheating system?

Why are you talking like this? Why are you refusing to see the factors that caused initial failure and building a myopic POV on that?


Replacement is not what we need. We need a more direct system and scrap this 1978 one that all the modifications cannot help progress an iota of the entire education terrain. Intelligent discourse and minds will proffer better systems with credible use of technology and accountability. Till then, 1978 has outlived it's relevance

True. But if you study Arteta you should know he doesn't follow such rules.

Besides when you look at all three (that's minus Osimhen) they have similar attributes. They can play ball. That's why I suspect Arteta wants them for the calibre of players they are.
That's the issue. He's not the one that really wants them. Berta is. If Arteta had his way, na Vlah or Sesko. Infact the Isak craving isn't actually Arteta's. That's all we need.

That man wan die on system player when his boss is tweaking things year in year out. Lol
Education › Re: Sowore Calls For The Abolition Of JAMB, NYSC by daveP(m): 11:34pm On May 14, 2025
Fact. We don't need Jamb especially as the reason it came about has failed entirely. It is a bottleneck that's having pseudo-progress but it is getting worse and mediocrity has taken over. Fake tears and apologies can't fix this rot. He is right on this.

We need intelligent brains of the highest level to converge and restructure this education sector of Nigeria. The best brains definitely are not at the helm. They're not even proactive. They didn't even remember in all their board meetings that setting exams for 6am for kids was a security risk all rounda. That oversight alone indicts the entire body called jamb.

And as if that wasn't enough, they are ordering a resit under 48hours for an exam that will decide the year of a youth? So 48hrs is enough to study for such an exam after the depression they initially caused. Who are these guys at the helm really? Who are they??

Tahst why I said I don't see him play CF. I am just insinuating, I may be wrong.
He's a trad 9. That's one reason he was in the conversation from Vlahovic time to now with the fantastic 4

2 Victors, Isak and Sesko

All 9s

Gyokeres is not coming to play as an outright CF. He is coming to play a a false 9 or deployed on the LW as a goalscoring/inverted winger same way Arteta used Aubameyang.

The only reason it will not happen will be a change of tactical approach which will mean getting a new CAM and creative LW similar to Doku.
What are you sayinghuh You go to the market full of false 9s and buy a trad 9 to come play false 9? Are you trying to make me laugh today??

Looku is a gamble he has failed before in EPL ( for small teams like Everton and Leicester), he excelled in Bundesliga and Serie' A.... maybe the English game is not for him...Williams is not PR, the guy is an upgrade on inconsistent Nelli and Trossard.


What the team lacks is high level games changer to change match dynamics ( now everyone knows take Saka out of the game and they're Done)...we should be ambitious and ruthless, half-baked player would get us nowhere
That wasn't failure. He just got down the pecking order and was still a stand out in those teams. The PK wrapped everything up and because he now succeeded with Atalanta, by comparism, it looks like a failure. It doesn't mean he will fail again. He's way better. If Lukaku can, why not him? He's way better than many EPL wingers right now tbh.

As for Williams, I don't see how he's better enough to be tagged a game changer. That why i see it more as PR. Of all the players connected to us, his is the highest you'll think he's some top gun in the league he plays currently.

That Saka take out is why we need to even find deputies for himself and Odegaard.

Dembele sits out a semifinal tie and still psg punishes us. That's what we need too

Yeah. I want to see how this squad will be when everyone is back sha. But let the new ones come in. Make everyone dey rotate squad depth dey go. Will reduce % of injury.

Funny side is if we really want this Gyokeres, we need buy a CAM too.

Good Morning @Seun

Pls I'll love to request the creation of the fully independent NL DMs system so users can send messages to themselves without it necessarily linked to an email whatsoever.

I remember those years and surprisingly i got one message from a NL user today but the email is gone and i believe the modification of that feature to a seamless and direct one will be quite helpful.


Much thanks

I will prefer Rodrygo or Williams to Lookman personally...


Gyokeres? Left to Arteta, he did rather be signing Christopher Nkunku ( another Foreman) grin grin grin....
Top skillset for me is independent game changers. That's why those 2 can never fit as much for me compared to Looku. Esp this Williams that his PR os strong. Guy's not even having the Sanchez DNA in him. If i had my way sha.

With the hope of signing a striker this summer, some of our fans are already tipping Havertz to make the starting 11 from the midfield 😂
No wahala now.
Delulu is an understatement. I saw the XI and many Gunner Influencers are behind it.

I saw one with no MLS or Timber but Huijsen in 3man defense.

I saw another with Kai and Trossard in middle.

Psychos plenty for this club o. You'll think they won small cup

The royal rumble dey sweet belle

At least this one will stamp permanently that this man is fully involved in exit and entry

Berta is hellbent on Gyokeres
Baba wants Sesko.
Some say na Isak baba wants. But me i don comot mind cos Castle are going to Europe. If Baba doesn't want that, he should do all to flog Newcastle so Isak go bounce. Else, make he allow Gyokeres enter abeg
Now we await the 7pm announcement

Great observation, but not true. The Abuja master plan is very much active with the best drainage system in west Africa. If you take a closer look at flooded areas, you will definitely notice why Nigerians are so difficult. People extend their plot areas to buffer zones just to gain more plot size after allocation. These buffer zones around river routes were properly plan for, Incase there is an increase in the volume of water. People also find joy in disposing their wastes into drainage systems. Nigerians don't even realize what they have until it's too late, that's when they will start complaining about flood.
Sadly, that's an exaggeration. It is not effective and long term. Yeah we have saboteurs and all that but when no effective policy to back up all those planning, what we see is every new minister's primary job is demolition man and yet 20years later, symptoms still persist
20years is enough is restore factory settings for any urban city in the world. Yet... Yet.

We just have to accept that the glam can't continue to cover the crap. Especially as time passes.

As for the flooding, i maintain my stance. Especially with the recent floodings in the last decade.

Remember Lagos is experiencing this same buffer zone issue and who takes the blame for such? Govt agencies and officials that keep putting pen to paper cos of bribery and corruption. What's annoying iw how they're using hammers to demolish cos they fear the impact of bulldozers on the terrain. Isn't that even hilarious? Yet someone signed on approval for building.


We just have clowns with money and power. Sense and sanity is missing.

Best drainage goes to Abidjan sadly.

Bold of you to assume i stay in the trenches. undecided

Abuja is still learning for urban planning. Especially Drainages and Canal. Death penalty for manhole robbers and that one will stop.

emekanairaland:
Stop disposing wastes into drainage systems and stop building houses along water routes. Flooding will be impossible in Abuja if the masses adhere to simple rules. We are also part of the government.
This same advise since Marwa days and yet, flooding affects communities because of poor urban planning.

Share the responsibility into % and this is how it has always been since the 80s


Terrible urban planning: 70%
Indiscriminate Waste disposal: 30%

Plus, there's also terrible preventive measures and repercussions. Alll on FG or the Govt in power.


Till then
