Durentt:
Hello everyone, I'm a university student in 200lvl elect engineering, and I have recently decided to read 8 hours everyday for the rest of my life (I started 2 weeks ago, and I've been doing just fine, albeit some days I feel tentative to read when I ask myself "What do I have to gain from this"

I combine both school work (5 hours) and general knowledge (like reading self-help books, books on historical and monumental events like the Renaissance period e.t.c for the remaining 3 hours).

I've thought on reducing this to 3 hours daily for all my readings, perhaps.

Am I missing out on anything in life? Or on the right path?

PDP planted, watered it, now time to reap from their labour. Or should PDP labour in vain?

PDP is a fraud.
Multiplier effect of corruption
1. A young man works for one of the state ministries. His salary is 120K. He makes 15,000 everyday on this desk (N75k a week) engaging in corrupt practices. As a result, he spends the daily cash as he cares. Living large and far above his legitimate income.
2. He visits the local joint every evening and buys drinks for friends, and area boys. They hail him. He is married, but has two girlfriends. His "income" is enough to take care of them. The Asun seller at his favorite joint is happy, the joint owner is happy.
3. Everyone was benefiting from his "income". Friends, family, area boys, joint owner, Asun seller, girlfriends, wife and his church. Life was good.
4. Then suddenly the ministry implemented the Treasury Single Account (TSA) at the beginning of PMB administration. His extra "income" disappeared and he had to adjust to the reality of event and live within his real income. That wasn't easy.
5. Initially he reduced his daily visit to the joint to 3 days a week and stopped buying drinks for everyone. He reduced the plates of Asun. The Asun seller started to find it hard to sell a full goat each day and resorted to buying half.
6. The young man's girlfriends started to feel the heat too. No more iPhone 10. The joint owner noticed a drop in sales. The young man finally stopped visiting the joint after a month. The area boys started feeling his absence. The effect cascaded down.
7. The young man started spending more time at home with his wife and kids. The family had to readjust to the reality of the new normal. His hair stylist noticed the young man suddenly stopped tipping. He will even wait for his N200 change after haircut.
8. Things are different. Times are hard, they all cry. The young man is blaming Buhari, his wife is blaming Buhari, the area boys are blaming Buhari, the girlfriends are saying Buhari must go, the joint owner is saying Buhari killed the "economy"
9. The Asun seller is cursing Buhari, the hair stylist is insisting Buhari is too old to rule. This is the story of our nation where corruption fuels the "economy". Those who are not engaging in it are benefiting from it.
10. This tread is not about Buhari's achievement or failure, but rather about the "multiplier" effect of corruption and how we have built a system largely driven by corruption. It's about policy implication (good or bad). It's about the choices we have made.
Finally, the young man had to withdraw his kids from what he called expensive primary school his kids attend. He added:"what are they teaching them there sef " Obasanjo didn't go to a private school. I just laughed .
I Will explain part 2 of this story in our # NEXT LEVEL

Go and look for work, you will never make it in life with this your scamming business. Yes, it is a curse, any money u make from this scam will never be useful to you and poverty will continue to be your portion until you get a legitimate source of income

I'm currently in Boluwaji, Ibadan. The light has significantly increased since the nationwide blackout early this month.

Good people of nairaland what's the situation in your current location?

Nigerian is on the match to make history once again. On the 16th of February, 2019, we are expected to pass a vote of no confidence on Buhari and his APC government of fake news, forgery, lies, propaganda, nepotism, ethnocentrism and outright wickedness!

Nigerians, we should not reinforce failure. Let's throw Buhari and his incompetent team out of Aso Rock forever. Please, let's Atikulate to restore our lost jobs and engage our teeming youth on productive venture once again.

Remember, Atiku means jobs!
God bless Nigeria
