EducationRe: NYSC Experience:“nigeria Has A High Number Of Graduates Who Lack Common Sense by Demayour: 6:38pm On Apr 14, 2018
PapaNnamdi:
Nigerians dont have Common sense, especially the graduates
No sir, I disagree. I'd rather agree that not all Nigerian graduates have common sense. She was actually right though. I've been saying this to a lot of people now that our younger generation of Nigerians especially those within the teenage and 30s range have more challenges they will pose to the country far more than what we've faced in the hands of our leaders. NYSC is actually a good place to discover that and as a PCM myself, I'm preparing my mind to face Nigerians who are really Nigerians.
BusinessRe: Folorunsho Alakija In The Mood Of Worship (Photo) by Demayour: 12:28pm On Apr 14, 2018
It's still very difficult for humans to really understand God's way even though we have different religious books leading to God. While we're busy accusing this woman of getting rich dubiously, why don't we leave her to God and take legal actions where necessary on her instead of coming out every time to shout "she stole oil wells, she had unfair advantage and so on"?. I wonder if there are anyone among us who will refuse 'unfair advantage' if given one.


Instead of monitoring Alakija who is finding her way to God's presence whether you like it or not, focus on God to get your share of his favour.

Has the Op forgotten that obtaining CERTIFICATES especially through online educational programmes is now at its cheapest? The certificates you'll even obtain concurrently are those from high ranking foreign universities in less time. There's no better time to trade your certificate for even #10m not to talk of #100m than now.

LiteratureRe: Is It That Authors Are No Longer Interested In Children's Literature?? by Demayour: 7:48am On Apr 13, 2018
For most Nigerian authors, children literature does not sell unlike the imported ones such as beauty and the beast, Cinderella, Sleeping beauty et al. Even in the aspect of literature in the mother language, there's been a drastic reduction because they are no longer being patronized. Sometimes the publishers are guilty of not publishing the books in beautiful materials that can pop-up as the children open them hence, the books are less attractive. But overall, we don't have a government that will help the writers by regulating books being proliferated in our schools. Except the author will monitor his own work to the publishing aspect and do self marketing of his books, we may rely wholly on Snow White and others for more generations to come.

CrimeRe: South African Lady Spots Her Rapist In Methodist Church by Demayour: 9:25am On Apr 09, 2018
Something justice in court will never do is bringing the offender and the victim together to reconcile after the offender has been punished. Neither can the girl get satisfied nor the man get relieved of his guilt until they both meet and sort out their differences, the man begging the lady for forgiveness and the lady letting go. It's true justice has been served and 10 years for that matter, but the harm on the psychological system remains till the victim is appeased by the culprit.

RomanceRe: Gay Couple Adopt A 3-Year-Old Girl (Photos) by Demayour: 3:09pm On Apr 06, 2018
Everything for children raised in homosexual families look easy, simple, cool right now. It is until their generation grows up that the world will know what problem it has created. I don't have an insight into what they might be but let everyone of us either we are supportive or against this unnatural phenomenon, be prepared. If you as a person does not engage in homosexualism but you promote the time will come when you'll understand better. I hope you wouldn't regret then.

If we continue to see thousands of generations before us as been ignorant because they didn't allow evils like this, and we in less than a century adorn social maladies to this level, we must be prepared against consequences which those generations cautioned again.

Those agberos we see in Lagos, if you trace it from the beginning severe brain damaged as results of early exposure to harmful and adulterated chemical during infancy and adulthood And lack of proper nutrition.
This singular fact alone is why Nigeria's future challenges is most likely going to be far more than what we're presently experiencing. While we have many young people raised under better conditions, they still became social problems. Now that children are being raised this way by their own father, weeping is an under-reaction for Nigeria's future.

Every verse you stated here are verses that seem to stand against the interest of women in the Bible. As for the books of Ephesians, Corinthians and Timothy that you referenced, I'll suggest you try finding out that statuses of those historical places to understand why Paul said what he said. More so, if you understand the bible and without being biased, you'll know what Paul meant by "the woman is created for the man".
Secondly, you reveal your own hypocrisy by not stating the instances where women judged Israel and God led them as he led men. Have you heard of Deborah before? Try and read the Bible with an open heart and an unprejudiced mind.

PoliticsWhy Women's Right Is Wrong In Our Right by Demayour(op): 10:51am On Mar 08, 2018
I have been putting up even write-ups for some periods that I had to ask myself if there is something unpopular I can reiterate in the social milieu. Then comes the subject of women's right or the rights of women. The topic has been popping up in my mind for sometimes up till yesterday when I felt I should write something on it. The idea got dismissed as I got engaged in other cluster of activities.
   Then last night around 12:15 am, as I was busy with an assignment someone gave me, I heard a radio presenter stating that today is the international women's day. I would not have picked the topic again until he mentioned that gender parity will take about 200 years before it can be achieved according to international reports. His conclusion was that we should work harder towards achieving gender parity more than we are currently making mention of it. In civilized societies, this is the right path to follow. But if I have no objection to certain things concerning women's right, there would have been no need for me to write anything at all.


   For many of us who read M.O Odiaka's Mastering English in our primary school days, we might be familiar with the short story I'm about to write. Nevertheless, I'm not going to state how directly related the story is to the subject at hand but perhaps, you can draw a logical line between the two. Here goes the story:
   
A particular fox once found a carcase and after failed hunting for several days, settled down to enjoy his sumptuous meal. As he was about to start eating, a fellow fox came by to share in the meal and the fox told him "go to the village down the road, you will find many more". The deceived fox went down the road that led to the village and as he was going, he kept telling every other fox that there are carcasses for them down the village. Very soon, the fox who was enjoying his sumptuous meal noticed that every fox around were calling one another that there were carcasses down the village. He himself could not take it anymore and he had to leave his delicious meal to follow others down the village. I guess this is where the story ends. But to finalize it, I'm going to give it a conclusion. The fox got to the village down the road alongside other deceived foxes only to be deceived like they have been deceived. By the time he came back, he has lost the carcase he found to another fox who was looking for food.

  Now to my subject. The call for the rights of women like we were made to understand, was due to the problem Europe encountered in the 19th and 20th century as industrialization heightened in Europe most especially. It was reported that women were underpaid for working the same hours per day with their male counterparts who were well paid. Generally, the outlook was that women were not allowed to benefit or participate like men. This scenario includes disenfranchisement, social leadership and responsibility and education.
  

As the foreign nations who were plagued with these challenges sought to overcome them by new laws, they spread the laws across all other countries of the world where women were hitherto equal in social benefits with their male counterparts. One point that gets me angry overtime is that foreign countries have this attitude of total superiority over countries like Nigeria and though we know that they are not superior, Nigerians are not helping matters in the way we take conclusions made by white men over us. Unfortunately, our academic world which ought to know better is playing front line in the inferiority game of the African course.

  My case study in this write-up is based only on the Yoruba culture which I'm more familiar with more than any other culture in the world. So whatever you read here is in the outlook of the Yoruba culture and (true) Christianity at large. In Yoruba land, men are regarded as the head and protector of the house. Although this give them chief role in their families, women however, are as equally important. Perhaps this is why Yoruba women exercise more rights in the home more than women from other tribes in Nigeria.
  In the old monarchical system practiced in Yoruba land, women have titular and decisional positions just like men. As we have the Balogun (Chief of army) and the Otun (King's right hand man), we also have the Iyalode (women leader) and the Iyaloja (head of the market women). The position accrued to these women is not only in their areas of influence but also in their local environments. For example, the Iyalode is the most important person in her environment the same way the Otun is the most important person in his own environment. If you have ever read the story of powerful women like Efunsetan Aniwura of Ibadan, you would be able to imagine how powerful women were in the precolonial era.
   Aside the Yoruba culture (I promised to write from my angular view), the Biblical world is also saturated with women of great power and influence. I will just state some of them as the bible is more accessible than Yoruba history. Have you ever heard of women like Deborah and how famous she was as a judge, leader and prophetess. How much she respected her husband who was less popular? She was a symbol of true feminism, what the modern day women should be pursuing. Have you heard of Miriam, Moses' sister or Priscilla and Dorcas in the New Testament? These are just some of the women recorded to be powerful in the Bible. It thus become safe to say that our culture, true Africanism does not support exploiting women neither does the bible support it at all. They were in fact, in contrast to women exploitation. Then we should ask, how did we get to the point of exploiting women to the extent that we now imagine that since the beginning of time,the feminine gender has always been exploited?
   It is in the nature of God to set the world in order and it is likewise in man's nature to tamper with the order and create chaos. After creating chaos, man will turn around and go as far as accusing God for man's maladies. The white man conscious of his mistake tried retracing his steps and in the process,he drags the rest of the world who were not even aware he was making any mistake along. Instead of receiving lecture from us, we become his students simply because there is nothing Africans are good at, so we were told.
  This is not a political, sociological or psychological argument, it is what happens in your next door. So pay attention. Our society is getting highly degraded the more we shout women right in cultures like the Yoruba culture where the rights of women is not supposed to be our topmost priority now. Truthfully there are situations where the female gender is been considered inferior and in some cultures, women have nothing else to do than to "end up in the kitchen" but this far outweigh the degradation households are facing presently in Nigeria today.
  The bible stated emphatically that husbands should love their wives like Christ love the church but no one pay attention to this. We think we know better than God and instead of making the world work like God wants, we put aside every doctrine of God and follow sensuality only to fail and accuse God of putting the world in disarray. Presently in many homes, husbands and wives are fighting for roles to play. Many men are afraid of calling themselves the head of their families because they are gender sensitive but when problem arises, the men are called to question. Likewise many women are being dragged by their husbands to be the provider for the family. Meanwhile, women are supposed to support their husband and not provide food, shelter and other things for the family. Domestic violence has risen in the last ten years more than fifty years ago due to new society's outlook.
  The term 'feminism' as a whole is being misused in many homes today. And for unmarried young men like myself, the fear of settling down with a woman who will become a competitor in the house is escalating by the day. As unmarried women are afraid of settling down in marital relationships with men who lack financial buoyancy, the men are afraid of having a home where they will not be in control.
   Finally, as Christians and Nigerians with rich cultural background, there are great women in our history and the bible who didn't go through feminism lectures before they made impact in their own societies, these are touch-bearers for us to follow. As a young person, staying unmarried is not the solution to our social challenge. It will wreck our society more than saving it. Let us look back inwardly and cherish our culture, let's cherish Christ-likeness and we will see our world moving faster and becoming better. Thanks for reading

That's what they simply are "colonial masters". It might sound consoling to call them colonialists but that will be made possible if Nigeria had matured from 1960 till present day. But instead of maturing, it is 'de-maturing', these guys influence thus become colonial masters' influence. It's the bitter truth

CareerRe: Why Did You Become A Teacher by Demayour: 7:50am On Mar 01, 2018
I vowed never to teach after I left secondary school but while waiting for UTME, I wanted to keep my brain stimulated and earn some money at the same time. So I started teaching in a private school. I would teach till afternoon and afterwards I would study for UTME. Though I taught the primary level which is later going to be my field, I really enjoyed every moment I spent with the children minus interruption from the school proprietor.

Well, the problem with teaching in Nigeria is so numerous. Accumulated mistakes of governments from the past has gradually reduced the standard of teaching and the prestige teachers used to enjoy in the past. One of our professors told us in class one day, that he got scholarship for being a student of Education. In those days, you need prolonged trainings just like medical doctors need in order to be a teacher. By the time you pass through 2 or 3 stages of the training,teaching would have become a profession of choice and not compulsion. Teaching presently in Nigeria is only profitable in very expensive schools but even those schools can use their teachers such that he becomes useless to himself. But whoever is ready to teach must do so with an open mind and a heart that is ready to learn. Teaching is not a destination but a route to a better destination especially for young men.

It's really so sad that we don't know the difference between criticizing a government and raining insults on the personalities that hold the government. We have been doing this long enough in Nigeria and that has never stopped these crooks from defrauding us of our national treasures. When are we going to learn to criticize constructively instead of insulting people as if we personally, are perfect to the highest order?
VP said something, instead of criticizing what he said based on our understanding, everyone went on rampage insulting his personality. El-Rufai wanted to justify his anti-people behaviour, he found nothing else against Nigerian youths except for the fact that they can insult. Perhaps this is one of the reasons some politicians have become heartless in the polity!
