I personally asked to be moved to Canada when there was an opening. I can't wait to go next year March when the new office opens.
From my two weeks visit during my training stint in the US, Canada doesn't seem like a lonely place. Maybe because I feel very comfortable in my own company.

2011, he supported Jonathan and he won. I am just trying to balance it for you.

Tinubu also supported Jonathan in 2011, so whatchasay?

I no see the difference o abi na my eyes?

Who?

Sterling Bank.

This World Cup somehow odd to me. Maybe it's just me, but I can't seems to remember World Cup is going on somewhere.

omonnakoda:
16.5 is the rate that the CBN lends to banks that is the lowest rate for banks and the likes of Dangote

They're actually trying to make me believe CBN rate is now 21%. This was after I was informed it rose to 16.5% earlier in August this year.

So why is Sterling Bank telling me it's 21% from 16.5%?
Thunder wey go fire them still dey do press up.

banks in Nigeria defraud their customers

Ecobank most especially!

Rogues

That Bank, SMH. All the staff members are thieves.

This CBN Governor is the most clueless we've had since independence.
From illegal deductions from your account ( you won't know unless you get a detailed statement), to dubiously programming ATMs to dispense a maximum of 10k for cards from other banks.
May I inform you that it's these banks that made the values of our Naira to fall like Satan fell from heaven? In all of these, the CBN is MIA or playing blind, deaf and dumb.
Banking has never been so difficult.

Multidimensional poverty rate takes other factors into consideration in addition to the regular indices. The fact that people still cook with charcoal and firewood will put them in this category, not necessarily because they earn less than $1 per day.
All in all, multidimensional or not, this is worrisome.

I have already learnt nodejs and react. Currently learning web 3 (blockchain).

Just do some personal projects like an API using nodeJs and use react to build the front-end and slap it on your CV. Practice algorithms and other basic interviews answers and you're good to go.
If you have opportunity for internship, go for it.
And also, open a LinkedIn account, or if you already have one, make it up to date.

Nigeria is above such useless politics you describe above in the year 2023. And for the uneducated voters, it will shock you to know they are more enlighten than you politically. They might be uneducated westerly but Locally they aren't.

It's still a fact that it's mostly the same party that wins the presidential election in a polling unit that also wins the elections for the parliamentary seats, because the elections take place simultaneously.
You probably don't know because either you don't vote or you've never presided over any election before, or both.

I am rounding up Angela Yu's 2022 web development bootcamp course in Udemy by December this year. I am planning to take up Kotlin or Python from 2023 January. What is your advice. Python and Kotlin, which one is better and which one can I use to get Job faster.

Also, with my knowledge of web app development, are there any forums, wassap groups or organisation for Nigerian programmers I can join for connection. Thanks.

Go and learn Java with Spring boot or nodeJs and thank me later. There are more junior and entry level roles in those than any other languages.
Getting jobs with python (if it's not machine learning or data science) and Kotlin (mobile app development) is not so easy.

I still don't know why we're glued to HP in Nigeria. That wacky thing.

coconutbag:
I hope these people are all richer and progressing under this current economy.

This one is waiting for a regime to come on board for him to get richer. You'll get old waiting.

One month actually.
I believe you should be able to pay your rent, saving half of your monthly income for two months.

I bet same thing was said about Buhari in 2015.
Woe unto those who put their hopes upon politicians.

Good. so based on this "the suite of skills, attributes and behaviours that allow individuals to engage in and contribute to the economic well-being of society", kindly explain How does nigeria have a population that isn't enterprising?

Which economic growth have you driven?

Are you a bot? How much does an average Nigerian youth contribute to the economy? That's the answer you should be giving me to counter my claim.
As for your last question, I'm not going to tell you anything to prove a point.

CheapHomes1:
You still haven't answered the question. How does nigeria have a population that isn't enterprising? has thed meaning of the word enterprising changed in the dictionary? Which economic growth have you driven?

Enterprising capabilities:...

the suite of skills, attributes and behaviours that allow individuals to engage in and contribute to the economic well-being of society.

The youth are the majority in Nigeria. How's that reality reflecting in the economic situation in the light of the above?

VoteObi2SaveNai:
God bless you!

This is nothing but propaganda to deflate the outcry of the fraud that happened in NE and NE.

We all knew how difficult it was for adults in the East to register due to large crowd and you're telling me that little kids like these managed to register. How possible is that?

Even on election day in the East, the officials are always strict and often disqualify voters over flimsy reasons talk more of little kids like this standing on the line to vote.

Also, the East is an "open area", whatever happens here always finds its way into mainstream media, so how come nothing of such has ever been reported and it's now it has become more difficult due to BVAS that such is happening?

Someone is doctrine all these!!

You still don't know the politics behind having large voting strength.

As a Presiding Officer in a senatorial bye-election in 2010, I can categorically tell you that 4 out of 10 people in the voters' register in Gombe state are underaged.
In my experience, it's only in Yoruba land that issue of registering underaged is non-existent. I'd always known that voting strength in the North is over bloated. South west has the highest voting strength in Nigeria in the real sense of it.

CheapHomes1:
How does nigeria have a population that isn't enterprising?

Because we have a population mostly of young people who should be the driver of economic growth, but are missing in action? Care to explain why?

KennethEnyi:
These are good solutions . Just like in game of thrones , hard decisions have to be made sometimes for the good of the realm
If there is no overpopulation resources will be evenly distributed and everybody will live comfortable lives no reason for crime or japa
But with overpopulation Wetin one man suppose chop, 20 people go share am!!!!!

Population becomes a problem only when a huge part of it is unproductive.
Majority of our population are young people. I know it would be a lot easier if our government provides supports, but should I say, we have a population that's highly unskilled or not enterprising?

A northern Muslim girls can never marry a Christian man.
Na our Christian sisters dey find husband

You're lying. My wife is a Fulani, a Moslem from Adamawa.
I'm a Christian, not just by going to Church, but indeed. You can only see beyond the limits of your sight. Stop saying what you don't know.

Amarabae:
His statement is futuristic, "we cannot have I dollar to 1000 naira,.
Olodos

The statement can also be termed as a protest for Naira being exchanged at 1000 to a dollar.
If you're not clouded by hate and bigotry, and assuming you understand English, that's how you'll read that statement.
You won't die if you're objective, at least, for once.

Meksumnoiz:
for where rented crowd from various states.am from jos am currently at home and most persons.moreover this is a flag off of their campaign and it is normal to have representative from various states.

How only you know most people in a city of about 1 million are at home from the comfort of your own house is beyond me.
I live in Abuja. The man that repairs my generator attended the LP rally in Suleja Niger state. You people should rest abeg.

vibrant99:
Hope you are following.

Person wey dey Do 18k(Naira) hotel for chad no dey pick beans,.......you fit pay 18k for Naija hotel?

U see say the job suppose to pay well? no be to dey ontop bed dey type ooo

People earn 5M monthly working from home in Nigeria. Face the topic.

Theunbothered:
You wouldn't know the reason why someone being investigated for heroin trafficking and money laundering would lie about his front business.

You are hopelessly foolish.

It seems you want to be unfortunate right?
Is it me you're referring to as foolish or your wretched father?
I'll make you regret your existence if you don't guide your utterances. Are you mad?!
Front business? Have you ever in your life have a flourishing business talk more of a company?

Theunbothered:
Tinubu himself denied having any other source of income aside from his alleged Delloite job. Why would a man with a registered company lie about owning it unless it indicted him of criminal activities?

Good or bad, I wouldn't know his reasons he denied having any other sources of income (if he ever did). What I want to point out is that he had a company offering financial services.

Theunbothered:
This Compass Finance and Investment Company that he used as a front for his drug business?

The same Compass Finance and Investment Company that had two men under investigation for heroin trafficking as directors?
Thank you for confirming that Tinubu is indeed a drug Kingpin.
https://www.nairaland.com/6948844/daily-beast-tinubu-two-drug

But I thought you said he didn't have any registered company?

Theunbothered:
The answer to that is a giant NO

If you know the name of the registered company he had in 1993 tell us right now.

Who's the promoter of Compass Finance and Investment Company?

Acidosis:
Ebiras are everywhere in the three senatorial Districts.

The Igallas are the Sons and Daughters of Olamaboro soil.
If I'm not mistaken, the Deputy Governor is from there. I don't like the idea that only Moslems would vote a Moslem-moslem ticket.
