Lucyspa: We are going to make it as tribal as we see fit. They started it on this Nairaland. For months, I couldn't come here cos of the tribal slurs these demons were throwing around and none of their kinsmen could call them to order. So who are you to tell us what to do now? People must learn and how would they learn if you keep being the bigger person? They must drink from the cup which they use to serve others so next time they know how it feels.
That, comrade, is the essence of being the bigger person. A wise saying once said if you argue with a fool, he will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
In all of those I highlighted in your statement, it the third person, not me and not you that has the initial problem.
If you are not faulty, why repairing yourself? The essence of being the bigger person is not for the aggressor. It is for you. You're being the best version of yourself by not letting the insignificant feelings bring you down and interfere with your happiness and peace.
FireUpNow: Those who don't have good knowledge of how to use computer to type will not ring it funny. Anyways, all the best
Eventually, we all have to know how to use a computer, a tablet or a smartphone. We can even write it from the comfort of our homes eventually, from any device that has a front facing camera for surveillance. So long as we have a huge database of random questions across the years so when you click start, random 40 or 50 questions are assigned to the candidates, and voila.
Bimffo: How can you use what Omojuwa said 10 years ago to judge him now.
On the contrary, ringing the stock exchange bell may make newspaper headlines, but it's still a crap achievement in the grand scheme of things. You would expect a person who 10 years ago, knew ringing the bell is as special as a human specie having a pair of eyes to also grow up. But no, he regressed. Allow him to be dragged please.
FYI, dogs ring the bell too. Their achievements? Your guess is as good as mine.
ivandragon: You guys need to stop this sweeping castigations of ethnic groups, in this case Yorubas, especially on this APC/BAT issue.
There are millions of Yorubas who do not support BAT or APC. But when people like you turn it to ethnic 'war', you force such persons to take sides by defending thier ethnicity.
Limit your criticism to the APC & BAT, don't drag the whole ethnic group into such matters.
Can't be further than this from the truth. I think it has a lot to do with the circles those tribalists keep. In my workplace and residence are a lot of Yorubas; very few of them bought into the APC agenda. You can imagine in a wood market where the other tribes bar Yorubas were prevented from voting, LP still tied with APC. It was a funny, but revealing moment. E tey before dem settle that fight over who betrayed who 😁
SpatialKing: Olamide once sang a song "Science Student" promoting drugs and use of substance among youths...
In the spirit of fairness, let's not tribalize this thing. Just as there are many Yoruba artists that have promoted drug use amongst youths, there are Igbo artists that have done the same too. As an Igbo person, I would know. I easily recall Phyno's Kush from the decade old Playmaker album. Not so long ago, Jeriq released Billion Dollar Dream album, a good number of the tracks in it idolized the use of drugs. So, yeah.
Even you are promising, no matter if the people around you call you stupid. Until you die, there's a potential to change the world for good in everybody.
Cantonese: You think everyone is blind to the reality of events in the country. If not for blindness, you should know that even among the professional nurses, there are reckless and poorly trained ones.
I mean... Anyone who's blind to this is not worth more than two quotes to be honest.
Segzy19: Auxillary nurses are illegal in Nigeria. The are not recognised by the nursing and midwifery council of Nigeria
What do you mean 'recognized'? They didn't get the same training and education the members of the society did, so it's common sense if they're not recognised as members.
A crude example would be the 'masons'. They may not recognised by Society of Civil Engineers but does that make them illegal or nullify their importance?
Warriorprince: Even in your research......the writer define his Injection. Those were prefilled injections...Nursing assistant don't prescribe or give injection and they are not licensed to do that anywhere in the world as of today.
Perhaps we should look at Nigerian laws instead. It appears some actually do in the world of today.
But I perfectly get the point where it is considered an overreach for auxiliary nurses.
NOETHNICITY: Please what is the real crux of the matter? I’ve been trying to figure this out
NDLEA's involvement as alleged by the deceased in the video. The incessant stalking of Mohbad with intent to harm by the NDLEA ambassador as seen of multiple videos and corroborated by a number of celebrities. And the side dressing being the NDLEA ambassador's ties to the powers that be.
1Sharon: Because they are not nurses, they aren't supposed to be giving out injections! You need to go to nursing school to be licensed to inject people. What are they keeping moving since they aren't trained professionals?
In the West they use the terms CNA/HCA, so there's no confusion.
A bit of research never hurts.
Anyways, here's a bit of education 'from the West'.
The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) says plans to introduce the Computer Based Test (CBT) mode in the administration of its examinations are at an advanced stage.
The Head of National Office (HNO), Mr Patrick Areghan, gave the hint in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Saturday in Lagos.
Areghan said that introducing the CBT mode of administrating some of the council’s examination had been part of his vision for the body in the near future.
”We have already started something in terms of CBT examination. We have gone far with our planning and all of that, even in the sub region, the registrar to council is also doing something. “But this is not as easy as some people will think. This is because we ask ourselves, how do we conduct CBT for practicals and essay papers?
“We can only readily do that in the case of objective questions. But so many people will not see it from that angle. They argue that some others are doing it, why can’t WAEC do same.
“Now, no one even talks about energy; how many schools are exposed to computer literacy? How many have computer facilities and how many have electricity to run these things?
“Even where you have all these things on ground, how do you handle the issue of theory and practical papers? So, these are the issues, but that is what I want the council to do in the very near future. “We should be able to conduct CBT examinations, even if it means starting with the objective questions,” he said.
The outgoing WAEC boss noted that already, the council had concluded on introducing the administration of its examination using the CBT platform under his watch, in no distant time, starting with the objective questions and later theory and practicals.
“So, I will like to see WAEC in that light,” he said.
Areghan said asides the introduction of the CBT, he would also like to see all the operations of the council fully digitalised in the near future.
Never in doubt. He is obviously popular among the people.
However, I have mixed feelings over the progress made in emancipating the food basket of the nation from these criminal elements who are decimating their agricultural gold with their nefarious deeds.
YoshihideSuga: But how was the research conducted? Knowing how wealthy non-indigenes are can be very tricky in Nigeria. To even know who are non-Indigenes in a homogeneous region would even be difficult.
All these stats is max, sampling. But it's very negligible given that a proper census has not been conducted in a long while.
loffyloffy: You guys know norhing, but to spred missinformation and half truths
Obama presented his birth certificate at the tail end of his administration as a matter of personal choice, not because of presure from anyone .
The law in the US grants you the right to protect your info from the public, you are not obliged to share it unless the court forces you to, and you can drag it as far as you choose to...it is your right
In a nutshell, Go and Verify is not for everyone. Nice Nice.
Did the autopsy you are also waiting for say Mohbad died from the injection?
How many registered nurses are in Nigeria to begin with? You won't let the professionals leave because of brain drain. You won't pay them well to keep them here either. The auxiliary nurses that are managing to keep things moving down here are now under attack in a rush to bury a lie.
Because the cartel is under attack and you're invoking the spirit of Ngelielie to deflect the crux of the matter.
It is significant that APC didn’t even claim to have won the majority or plurality of the votes cast during the governorship election in Kano this year.
I detest political cultism, which the Kwankwasiyya movement represents, and also resent Governor Abba Yusuf’s incipient governance by destructive vengeance, which saw him remorselessly destroying multimillion-naira buildings belonging to political opponents in his first few weeks in power, but the verdict that overturned his victory strikes me as deficient in both legal and logical merit.
APC appears intent to get back through judicial manipulation what it lost through the ballot box. It’s a higher-order, more sophisticated, and less primitive version of the broad-day electoral heist they perpetrated in 2019 after former Governor Abdullahi “Gandollar” Ganduje lost to the same Abba Yusuf. INEC was manipulated to declare the election as “inconclusive,” even though APC unambiguously lost it. It bears no recounting what happened thereafter.
The single-minded, concentrated, unstoppable political steamroller that Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso unleashed in this year’s governorship election in Kano was simply too overpowering for Ganduje and Nasir Gawuna to withstand.
As I argued in my April 01, 2023, column titled “Between Obi and Kwankwaso, Who’s the ‘Local Champion’ Now?” Kwankwaso didn’t run for president to win it. He did so to “leverage his presidential run to help his son-in-law get elected as governor of Kano State. And he achieved his goal.” He obviously learned from 2019 and was prepared for 2023.
It is significant that APC didn’t even claim to have won the majority or plurality of the votes cast during the governorship election in Kano this year. It merely invoked a welter of issues that are extraneous to the vote, which are balanced on a dubiously slender thread of legal evidence, to ask for the reversal of NNPP’s victory.
Three points constitute the nucleus of APC’s judicial challenge to the NNPP’s victory at the tribunal: that NNPP’s Abba Yusuf wasn’t a registered member of the party on whose platform he ran; that the Electoral Act was violated through “over-voting,” violence, and disenfranchisement; and that 165,663 votes for NNPP in Tarauni, a Kano local government, were invalid because they lacked INEC’s markers of authenticity, i.e., stamps, signatures, and dates.
Invalidating 165,663 votes out of NNPP’s 1,019,602 votes while leaving APC’s 890,705 votes untouched handed a dubious victory to APC by default.
It’s easy to see how APC’s victory at the tribunal will crumble like a paper bag upon appeal. First, membership of a political party is an internal matter that non-party members have no legal right to be concerned about. In its response to APC’s challenge of Peter Obi’s qualification to run for president on the platform of Labour Party because he was not a registered member of the party as of April 30, 2022, when the party turned in its membership register to INEC, the Presidential Elections Petitions Tribunal ruled that, “The issue of membership of a political party is an internal party affair.” It dismissed APC’s challenge on the basis of this.
A May 26 Supreme Court ruling also says rival parties have no right to question the validity of the internal decisions made by other parties unless they can prove that they suffered demonstrable harm as a result of the internal decisions another party took. So, the Kano governorship election tribunal’s verdict on this issue will be as dead as a dodo upon appeal.
Bella while hanging out with an interviewer affirmed that Omah Lay is his close pal. When asked who else he shared such ties with, he said Mohbad and proceeded to call him on video call. The interviewer asked if Mohbad was on his album. With a dismissive gesture, Bella replied "He's not on my album. All these their Marlians..I don't want. I don't want to be involved abeg"
He proceeded to call Mohbad on video and amidst much friendly dialogue, they agreed to meet up later at Buju's listening party. Mohbad even asked if they could link up much earlier at Bella's destination at that moment but Bella told him not to since he would not be paid to be there.
It appears Bella had a forehand knowledge of the alleged absurd practices of Marlians Music before the recent fiasco leading to the death of Mohbad. While a number of people may be on his demise for clout, we can only imagine the kind of pain Bella is dealing with at this point.
If not for the commissioning of the road which I remember seeing, I'd have thought this was a random street in Lagos after that Saturday morning rain. It was terrible. I just got to discover yesterday that a gadget I gave someone to fix was affected by that flooding.
We need to take drainage seriously. The way we build and sell lands, without consulting state plan or observing drainage plans is something that'll jump up and bite us in the ass one day.
