Sixfeetbelle:
He ghosted her and then came back. Why?

Is he ready to feed her now?

No, perhaps he felt she must have made some harvest. Or perhaps encountered some of this "send me your pictures and let me credit your account" people

Michdaf:
If you want to know why I stopped chatting and calling you, why didn't you tell me yesterday. why did you have to bring it here. I don't know what you wanted me to do then. I ask why haven't you eaten and you said you don't have much. And I was not that buoyant then. And I explained everything to you. Then you start giving me attitude. that period, I was invited to court and you know the reason. I was face with the court issue for six weeks. At first I was arrested and my phone was taken from me. All this period you didn't call. and the best thing you could do is to bring it up here. Am very disappointed

You better be careful young man. From all indications, this one is potentially worse off than your ex you claimed you just got off from a battle with.
See how she suddenly ran to strangers to lie, played the victim and labeled you the villain.
And she claims to be a born again Christian.
I don't think you've got came to this planet with much luck with women bro, but I'm sure you've more than make up for it with other aspects of life.

Sixfeetbelle:
He should not have ghosted her. Simple!

Saying you don't have money to give her to feed is more than enough.

How did her feeding become his responsibility?

CalliDora1:
My dear. @bolded is my thoughts because he resumed the question this morning again.

Sugar what?.. this person I'm telling you is a MAN as in very mature guy and from all indications he's not a play boy. But why he pulled that stunt at the last minute was what got me upset and worried.

I'm thinking whether to download all he did to him and how I see it or just block him.

I don't want to appear wicked or rude but my interest is no longer there.

How will your blocking him affect him or hinder his progress in life?
It's your phone bruh! Do whatever pleases you.

Perhaps he's trying to avoid the "I need 2k urgently crew" hence the asking about your potential ability to afford three square meals per day and business stability.

Even if it's 8 years, the Abysmal Staff Union of Urchins(ASUU) will wait.

shadeyinka:
Are you saying that ASUU should just go back to work, collect their salaries and don't bother if the system finally shut down or become a glorified secondary school?

This can easily be done. Lecturers mark time in the class, publish junk research papers, promote themselves to become professors and produce totally useless graduates who know virtually nothing more than that with which the y came into the university from their secondary school.

Do you have a minimum deliverables and expectations from the Lecturers?

What do you think is the cause of this strike in the first place?
Once a payment Platform is agreed and they get paid, the strike will be called off.

I can't count the number of times Biodun has cried out that they can't go back to work on an empty stomach.

shadeyinka:
I smile at your seemingly lack of comprehension of the magnitude of the problem.

If NMA goes on strike for 3 days, people die!
That's an irreplaceable loss to families.
FG has to act fast and they always do

What happens when ASUU goes on strike for 6 months: parents pay extra, time is wasted,
FG waits until it becomes embarrassing to them

Unfortunately, strikes in whatever form is not good for the Nation.
If only the FG will do the right things at the right time, there may not be any reason for strikes.

The irresponsibility of Government usually lead to these strikes.
The effect is not as drastic.

Exactly the point. So ASUU strike can't force the Government's hand as you people think.
It's not only getting embarrassing for the Government, it's already embarrassing for ASUU too.
ASUU should find something else to do and stay on their job and put end to all these incessant strikes. 14 months and still counting in just 2+ years, when do they even get to work.

Michael33:
I guess you're new in this country... How many court ruling has this current government honoured?

That doesn't mean ASUU shouldn't give it a try.

NOwazobia:
as far Nigeria is concern, there is no alternative. Your government only understands violence (physical or mental). You suppose to know this fact.

Lol, so what physical and mental forces have been exerted on the government so far in this almost a year old strike?
If ASUU claim their is a signed document that the FG have failed to honour, let them drag the FG to court and present the document. But they'd rather be on an indirect paid leave.

shadeyinka:
If you are within the system, you would have understood.

All FG owned research organisations are suffering of what ASUU is demanding now. Since the inception of IPPIS non had been able to absorb Post Docs, Visiting Researchers, Adjunt Researchers and Sabbatical staff. All the protests and objections have fallen on the deaf ears of the FG.

Sadly, the only language the FG understand is FORCE! Only two organisations in Nigeria has been able to get the FG to reason and these are NMA and ASUU. NMA has patients in the hospital as leverage while ASUU has students as leverage. It is unfortunate, but STRIKE is the only language the FG understand.

ASUU had been discussing this same issue of IPPIS for more than 4 years now to no avail. As a last resort, ASUU went on strike. How then is it still their fault?

So when has NMA ever embarked on a 9 month strike before?
If ASUU says they have a mou with FG in which the FG have refused to honour. How many times have they explore the legal option by dragging FG to court?

Around 2018, they still embarked on about 5 months strike, with this 9 months, that's 14 months and still counting in less than 3 years. Just how much time then do they spend in the classroom impacting students with knowledge in their career.
It's just like though they enjoy downing tools cos at the end of the day it will be more or less an indirect paid leave to them.

This ASUU strike is nothing like a show of force, if it is, it won't have linger for this long without a solution. It's just an avenue to waste student's time and frustrate parents' efforts.

I don't think NMA has ever gone on a strike longer than 1 or 2 months before.
ASUU needs to stop this nonsense, to improve the quality of tertiary education in Nigeria is a collective effort and not ASUU sole business, we can achieve that by putting the right people in the right places, so ASUU should stop using this claim to line their selfish interest.
As long as we have this current crop of thieves in Power, even decades of strike won't change anything.

And NASS need to review the strike action and Industrial act in the constitution. This is embarrassing looking at it from the outside,
In this case of the current strike, they don't deserve to be paid more than their two months full salary when they get back to work.

shadeyinka:
But what would have happened if government took actions well before ASUU called on the strike?

Would they still have gone on strike?

I'm not on anyone's side, but I'm totally against not working for 9 months out of 12 months in a year. It's becoming embarrassing, ASUU should find something else, or perhaps Nigeria as a whole should find a lasting solution by electing only sensitive and visionary leaders.

The DOB on your WAEC certificate is the correct one.

No matter what, you don't have the right to abscond from your work for 9 months in the name of strike and still expect to get fully paid for those 9 months before going back to work.

You don't know what you want from her yet, when it's time she will be the one to run.
I'm sure you'll never extend such generous offer to your fellow man.

All4good:
This is my candid advice for you, Op and others looking to migrate.
Gambia is a mono economy solely dependent on tourism. With a very small population/implying that the market is equally small. Minus the foreign tourist trooping in and Gambia is DEAD. Lets pray something of the Covid19 magnitude doesn't repeat.

If you are in the medical field or planning to join, I urge you to grab a Nursing certificate first from Nigeria. There will always be a HIGH demand for nurses no matter the country. Apply to any of the state schools of Nursing in Nigeria for the 3 years Diploma, on graduation you can secure a job in the UK and achieve citizenship within 3yrs. I need not explain the advantage of the citizenship.
So its important to be strategic in planning your migration.

Food for Thought:
Do you think a Nurse working in Nigeria could ever accept to work in Gambia?

At your last question, why not?
Most of these African countries that are smaller to Nigeria on paper have better renumerations for their health professionals.
You think the OP that migrated to Gambia is not better off than when he was in Nigeria?

My cousin who is an imaging scientist got an offer in Sierra Leone in 2017. Two years contract with a pay of $20k per annum with 5% withholding tax.

I can't answer any question for Kepa's cousin.

No.
Most of them think all they need to bring into a relationship is the vagina.
As long as they have a vagina, then to them, they are the richest women in Babylon.

They aren't good this season. Liverpool should've won them with a wider goal margin .

Which one is "should have" did they subtract from Liverpool goals in the match?

hapholaby:
I am a Muslim, I shave both sides because it boost my confidence and makes me happy.

There's an hadith that says "al halal baiynu wal haram baynu" lawful and unlawful things are clear, and the determined of what is lawful and what is not, os the heart.

This legitimate hadith supports being yourself and not copying others ignorantly.

I have checked my heart and morale, and I believe me keeping my hair this way doesn't affect it, however I would not discourage other Muslims from following this if their hearts says so.

May God guide us all to the straight path filled with happiness.

proffemi:
All ramifications? I hope you're not a Science or Engineering graduate making such a sweeping and patently false statement. Research funding? Infrastructure? Student facilities? I can tell you with 100% confidence that every single federal university has improved significantly in at least one of those areas over the last 20 years.


Don't be slow. Saying they are improving is hardly the same as saying they are world class or even of acceptable standard. That they still remain in relatively bad states despite the increased funding and interventions should tell you how bad things were, and how much is really needed to take them to world-class standards.


People get so selective about hiding information when they are lying freely. Mention at least one of those your two universities unless you're afraid or ashamed. I am in Obafemi Awolowo University for example. I'm neither proud of, nor ashamed of that fact. Challenge me, and I will tell you some of what TETFUND has done in my university. Mention your own university, and I will do same for it.

Lol, I spent 5 years there.
Upload the pictures of the bathrooms or toilets and let's compare it with how they were 20 years ago.

Upload the pictures of white house that's not really white anymore.

Ask those students going for practicals, how many students per table/ apparatus.

How many Lecture halls do Law department have?

Do you know how level one students do pack themselves inside 1000 seaters like Sardine?

In OAU, people go to receive lectures in an open field in sport complex, even Law students.

It's in OAU you see law students dragging lecture halls with Medical students at HSLT.

My Dad actually chose the school for me then, cos it's also his Alma mater. I could remember when my mum was buying my things then, he was like i don't need all these buckets that there's Shower in Angola.

My Alma mater in the North is even more organised and well structured than OAU but the place is still nothing to write home about.
But OAU is one of the fastest decaying Federal universites, even though ogunbode tried to decongest the hostels and did some patch works in the name of renovation.

The only thing that improved in OAU is security, i could go to my bank at 2am to use the ATM, from when it was behind the library before they moved it to banking area.

proffemi:
Yes, it is just up the alley of an individual like you to argue from limited, myopic personal experience while rejecting *peer-reviewed, verifiable* facts.
That something is improving globally does not mean that all local instances improve. I do not know your alma mater, but if you were to mention it, I'm sure interested posters will point out the recent TETFUND interventions there (assuming you *did* attend a university of course).

I have neither interest in, nor time to cross swords with you. All I have time to do is provide evidence of your misconception, if you are interested. Re-calibrate based on superior information or stick with your preconceptions, it's up to you and no longer any business of mine. Sayonara.

Whatever you say, only private universities are better off, then a few state universities.

99% of Federal universites are in a worse state in all ramifications.

You don't need to bother about my Alma mater, i already stated earlier that i had first hand experience in two Federal universites and i have families and friends, siblings who attended/attending others. And of course we read News and see pictures everyday.


You are even a clown to want to dispute that not most public universities in Nigeria are suffering from old, dilapidated hostels and inadequate lecture halls and ill-equipped labs.

proffemi:
Daddy, take it to the bank: the universities are absol-100%-utely improving. And it is largely due to a program (TETFUND) that is ASUU's brainchild.
Unfortunately, TETFUND has not completed its 20-year impact assessment study. But If you actually wanted to learn about a subject you've been posting on all day, the information is actually out there. Take this study for example : http://www.ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/jsd/article/view/39128
It focuses on EBSU, but the authors extrapolate to the entire Nigerian tertiary education system (as they well should), and you can see the clear trends.

If you must post so aggressively on an issue, at least try to familiarize yourself with the facts!

By facts you mean what's in the papers or what's published online?

They are improving yet, students are sitting on the floors and windows to receive lectures, the hostels are overcrowded with overstretched facilitues. The Laboratory are ill-equipped with archaic apparatus.
Students have to shine their smartphones light into the simple microscope to view specimens.

Some practicals get delayed or postponed cos of lack of Power supply.
Most of the reagents in the laboratories have expired thus unreactive.
I can go on and on.
Things were not as worse as this before, and it keeps getting worse and no amount of ASUU strike can fix that.

dontgiveup:
This is the third time I am seeing this " SPAROGATIVELY" and I have been worry to know the meaning. Any help?

It beats me. Maybe it's the German or Latin form of prerogative.

Gabbriell:
Improving university is not a job for ASUU alone. Many people don't know ASUU or their functions.

ASUU - Academic Staff Union of Universities. They are one of several section of the university staffs responsible for teaching the student.

There are also the Non-academic staffs like the NASU, SSANU e.t.c.

Apart from salaries, the money ASUU always fight for in the name of university development goes into the university wallet not ASUU. ASUU make sure the FG release the money to the universities. The univers headed by the VC who answers to the government (state government in most cases).


SO "universities improving or deteriorating" is not just the fault of ASUU.

The problem is that Nigerians (both leaders & followers) have the habit of making a simple problem look complex. For example, this strike isuue b/w FG and ASUU; very simple problem with simple solution, but look how complex both parties have made it.

So why are they always inferring that they are on strike for the betterment of the universities.

All their incessant strikes, cutting across decades are only capable of wasting student's time and putting some change in the pocket of the union.
So i don't quite agree with your claim that ASUU should be supported so that the public universities won't go the way of the primaries and secondaries.

Their strikes doesn't matter and it won't make the universities better. If FG decide to overlook the IPPIS today, they will go back to the classroom. It will still be the same overcrowded lecture halls, 12 students per room and 40 years old bathrooms in schools like OAU, UI and UNN.

What does this means? This is the second time I'm coming across this, don't know if you wrote the first one too.
