'Scale-Low' LOYOLA COLLEGE IBADAN...
The seniors be like ... "O ya, go and sha 'scale-low'" (not sure of the spelling though, nobody cared about that.
It is like trying to do press up, so you lie flat, raise your body while your hanging body is suspended by your elbow tips and your toe tips, and your fingers grab your ears. Crazy and excruciating. Just 10mins, you go become born again sharp sharp Mad seniors (including me self sha)

..I see the value of guys rising. Women have to empty their accounts to get a cap-full of 'fluid' from the men...

miketonic: As long as the man did not rap$e or molest the mother or daughter...he should not have burned or killed. Having sex is a personal relation situation , u either agree with the person u having sex with or accept money for it . The guy who set the man on fire need to be sent to jail or even executed. Am a judge in America so, I know what am talking about.

Only in nigeria someone will say you stole something , before you know it, your getting burn alive
Only in nigeria 4 innocent kids will be killed because of suspicion (aluu community)
Only in nigeria a rich man can send u to jail, because he has the money and feel like it
There is more....

That's why I can't return or even thinking about visiting nigeria...that place is a jungle

Actually, I 'liked' your comment until I read the last sentence...so, i 'unliked' it again. You are a part of the problem.

True, and this is also true...
Only in Nigeria are those who are supposed to help solve the problem run away to another man's land to become second class citizens mopping floors and poking fun at their own homeland.

Why all these burn burn things na? Nna adokwa not good o.
BTW, why did he spice the victim up with grounded pepper before burning him? Sure Sunday must have lived in Kaduna before, he knows something about suya.
God have mercy!

That guy don almost win abeg...make I help the less privileged. No ojoro

Mod, if there is a need to edit the topic, please do so. I would really appreciate if this is moved to the FP. It's an awareness for everyone - the young and the old. Thanks.

Hi guys,
I really feel compelled to write this because I think it’s high time we did sometime about education trend and study patterns in Nigeria (and Africa). Looking at the population of Nigerian students in tertiary institutions (home and abroad), it is saddening that students studying Art related courses constitute a larger percentage than those in pure and applied sciences.

While studying Art courses isn’t a bad idea altogether, but when 70% of the young minds run into Humanities, it becomes a big problem for the nation on the long run especially considering the fact that the world now is a science-defined, idea-driven and innovation-dependent one. Having gone through several top university directories in the States, Canada and United Kingdom, black students (and Nigerians) are wanting in core courses in sciences and applied sciences.

Majority of contemporary inventions (almost 98%) are done by science students in their teens, 20s and 30s. Unfortunately, one can actually count the number of young black inventors on one’s fingers.
Take a look at the list of some of these young inventors:
• Mark Zuckerberg (1984) was 20yo when he founded Facebook in 2004, along with Eduardo Saverin (Brazilian) @ 22,
Dustin Moskovitz @ 22, Chris Hughes @ 21 and Andrew McCollum.
• Jaan Tallinn (1972) founded SKYPE @ 31 in Estonia.
• Max Levchin (1975) was 23yo when he founded PAYPAL in 1998, along with Peter Thiel @31yo, Luke Nosek @ 23yo, Ken
Howery @ 23yo, Elon Musk @ 27yo.
• Mike Lazaridis (1961) founded Blackberry in Canada in 1999 @ 38yo
• Jan Koum (1977) and Brian Acton (1973) founded WhatsApp in 2009 @ 32yo and 36yo respectively.
• Ted Livingston was 20yo when he launched KIK in 2010.
• Larry Page (1973) and Sergey Brin (1973) were 25yo when they founded Google in 1998.
• Chad Hurley (1977) was 28yo when he founded Youtube in 2005 along with Jawed Karim @ 26yo and Steve Chen @ 27yo.
• Kevin Systrom (1984) and Michael Krieger (1986) were 26yo and 24yo when they founded Instagram in 2010.
• Jack Dorsey (1976) was 30yo when he founded Twitter in 2006 along with Evan Williams and Biz Stone.
• Talmon Marco, the founder of Viber is in his 30s.
• Reid Garrett Hoffman (1967) was 35yo when he founded LinkedIn in 2002
And of course, my favorites, my friends and young Canadian entrepreneurs,
• Hongwei Liu (21yo) and Leander Lee (19yo) were just 20yo and 18yo when they started MappedIn in Waterloo, Canada. Now, they are rolling in millions. Check out their 7mins Dragon’s Den presentation here: http://www.mappedin.ca/about (click on the Dragon’s Den Video).

All the apps on Google play, Play Stores and Appstores are developed by teenagers and early 20yos in North America, Asia and Europe; and these apps are downloaded by millions every day. Who isn’t familiar with games like Angry Birds, Jewel Stars, Bubbleshoots, Minecraft, Tetris, Solitaire, Mario, Mortal Kombat, Sudoku, Scrabble, Monopoly, Temple Run, etc All these are being developed by teenagers and 20yos.

Landmark break-throughs are being recorded daily in cancer research, quantum physics, neuroscience, health, environment, engineering, space science, aeronautics, computer science, finance, etc but we hardly hear of Nigeria names (or even Africans) being mentioned. And these are carried out by young scholars - Caucasians and Asians predominantly.

The bottom line is, we have to start encouraging our young ones to venture into science especially from junior high school. When 60% of the students in a university is into Arts and Humanities (Philosophy, Mass Comm, Anthropology, Sociology, History, Political Science, Public Admin, Music, Philosophy, Cultural Dance, Geography, etc), then there is a big problem for the country and the future of the youths. Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Further Maths must be encouraged at all cost.

Your opinions and contributions are welcome. Share with us if you know a young black (Nigerian or African) with inventions. Thanks.

Lolz. Why always him?

Nice beat + nonsense lyrics = just there song

Jeez! So na this dude self? Always catwalking and looking weird like he is seriously looking for a missing person? Frequenting oriental hotel, Sherlaton, civic Centre, Eko hotels etc...Jeez! Who d f says he is not gay?

Yeah, I remember him and his jerry curl hair. Sets of Daniel Murphy (can't remember his names) the Ragamufin...what about him now? Planning a comeback?

Even if the 'suspect' has confessed, he still must be convicted in the court before we can call him a convict...for now, he is still a suspect...

You see your life? After 21 years of hard work, you ruined it with just N2000 request. Who knows whether he even eventually got the N2000.
But then, after 21 years in the service, the man was still a road side sergeant ? Whatever happened to promotion? Na wah o. Incredible hulk things dey happen o.

brosun: The state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Alex Akhigbe, confirmed the arrest but said they were yet to establish the motive behind the attack.

what other motive do you need for God's sake? They wanted money...thats the motive, abi I dey miss something for this story?

[quote author=S@NNiE]The 6-3-3-4 indicated six years in the primary school, three years each in junior and senior secondary schools respectively; and four years in the higher institution.[/quote]I bet they forgot their maths. It should be
6-3-3-4(x) where x is an indefinite significant coefficient in Nigerian tertiary education...
(x = > 3years of ASUU strike etc)

Bobby4090: So Fashola is now operating Concentration Camps in Ikorodu just like Adolf Hitler did to the Jews in 1945.

The Army should storm those camps immediately and rescue other detainees, some who who may have been there since January without their relations even knowing that they are in Fasholas illegal detention centers.

Tundeolaniyi: Which means you are a poor dude. If you are still doubting my paternity I invite you to my branch at New Market road Onitsha.

His real name na Kelechukwu Onaji. Na yeye boy. How many nairalander use their real names to create an account here and openly speak against their own? Na mumu guy. Someone should please tell him this is 2013...not 1997! Odenson

RedBenson: Due to when i joined Nairaland, my first encounter with this kind of charity was for ojb. Therefore, pls i have a question below.

Does this kind of wonderful way of raising fund to help the needy cover every nuck (not sure of the spelling) and cranny of Nigeria and beyond or is it just because Ibadan and Lagos (folake and ojb respectively) are very closed to Otta (Ogun state) which is the headquarter of Nairaland? Why am asking this is because the story posted says that 'Mund-44' and 'Tgirl' went to see the lady themselves. If the needy was in Aba, Abia state, would they still travel down to see her with thier eyes so as to call for donations?

Thanks for sincere answer.

God bless all the donors and grant the receiver safe medical journey!

I understand your angle my broda but make I yarn you:
If my broda/sister from Enugu is the one in this problem and I can help (in as much as na nairaland FP am),nna mehn, I will surely help.
If na my broda/sister from Sokoto get this wahala and I can help (in as much as na nairaland FP am), wallahi I go help.
If na my broda/sister from Ondo get this yawa and I can help (in as much as na nairaland FP am), gba! I go help.
If na my bros ye from middle belt enter this gbege, and i fit help (in as much as na nairaland FP am), guy man, I go help.
If na my broda/sista from south south get this kasala and I fit help (in as much as na nairaland FP am), bros ye, I go help.
Bottom line, a friend in need is a friend to be helped...south, east, north or west...a Nigerian is a Nigerian regardless of the tribe. Forget all those talks about Ibos being deported or not, all those ones na bone thugs...Help a Nigerian, help a brother/sister. Chikena, otan, odukwa finish.

jimmysho: Tunde olaniyi, you are a fraud

You should have simply capitalised that 'fraud', make it bold, change the colour to red, change font to Tahoma, and add some ice cream on it like this:
