PoliticsRe: 5 Signs Nigeria Has Damaged Your Mindset (a Wake Up Call) by djseanjohn77: 12:27pm On Jul 14
PrinceOogaBooga:
5 SIGNS NIGERIA HAS DAMAGED YOUR mindset (A WAKE UP CALL)

The average Nigerian is intelligent but suffers very subtle mental issues, here are 5 proofs.


1)You go to Church or mosque to pray to God to solve the Problems a working government should provide.

Nothing makes Prayer Warriors like a bad Economy and a Government that fails to provide amenities that are seen as basic necessities in other parts of the world.
The church is not primarily created to meet your needs ..that's one of the mind damage that Nigeria has done to you.

If God should give us a good government over half the christians in Nigeria will have no use for God.


A lack of Amenities, like electricity, road transports, livable neighborhoods, food and water provision
Are not Hallmarks of good governance
.
They are not the peak of God’s love, so you don't have to die praying and fasting for them

They are not the product of Hardwork, so it's not a function of your squalor and labour.
But the average Nigerian believes otherwise.

That is why unlike every working country where these are seen as basic necessities.
The average Nigerian thinks he is only entitled to this, if he prays and fast and pays tithes to God like a good christian or Muslim.

Or if he cheats his way through work and bribes the most people or hustles the most.

What this does is that,

It removes accountability from the politicians and puts it on us or God.

You may argue that Nigerians demand their government to do better.
Yes they do, but not enough because they don't Expect them to actually do better

And why do they not expect, because of this mental damage I am talking about.

We subconsciously do not expect them to improve for a plethora of psychological reasons
And this is the difference between Nigerians and other countries where their citizens are not mentally shackled.



2)No Real Outrage

Nigerians are not shocked by anything.
There can be Power outages for a whole year, 40 Children kidnapped across all states, and a whole village can be wiped out.

And all Nigerians will do is post, shout, rant and make skits.

And this is not external, it's not like they are not doing anything because they physically can't, who can fight the government? That's what they say.

No, it's not just about the actual physical powerlessness, it's the mental cage of adaptation to suffering that psychological damages our ability to be outraged by injustice..

In contracts
You see the outrage in US and European Citizens over ordinary social changes?
Because they are shocked that elected leaders fail to do the needful.

Imagine the outrage that would rock the developed world if electricity suddenly became unstable, if schools went on strike, if they now had to pray to God to release hundreds of school children from the den of kidnappers.
It's not about the country , it's the people

We are mentally handicapped to even be outraged enough
And until those shackles are broken
No new election

No new candidate
No protest
No party
No tragedy, no New kidnapping across all secondary schools, no New Herdsmen attack
No Boko Haram bombing
No new News of looting and stealing and corruption
Will Force the Nigerian to break out of his mental shackle he will adapt
And continue like that enslaved fish, a worthy bondservant of his liquid cage.

3)Complain has become your coping mechanism

The African complains a lot and immediately goes back into fields of slave labour…instead of taking action, he cries and continues his wallowing.

The average Nigerian believes in complaining like his life depends on it.

When they see those who actually take action, they are shocked …that's why everyone is still waiting for the government to deal with the bandit Fulani insurgent…
Folding their hands till they are wiped off the face of the earth, waiting for “Government to handle security issues”

Once they see who actually fights back they are shocked and bewildered..some will shamelessly ask “why jungle Justice”?

Because the average Nigerian is a coward and an expert in complaining..why because that's his coping mechanism


4) You Don't Know how to exist in a system without Corruption.

Churches are filled every Sundays
Mosque are filled every fridays
Nigerians are very religious
But lack the Knowledge to exist in an incorrupt system.

How can a Nigerian survive in a system where you can't pay money to someone to “Run it for you”(whatever the context may be)

How can you just exist where they can't “work it” where you can't settle someone to settle another someone..

This is not a moral write up, it's purely idealogical…

Why Nigerians are like this is because this is the only system we have ever known.


Nigerians can never be saved until they realize that their problem is more internal than external.
Lack of electricity, insecure travel routes, the increasing uselessness of the naira and the unsure future of the economy isn't our main problem.
The reason why year in year out we continue to wallow around the issue of good governance with no end in sight is because we have been conditioned into abnormality.
And if existence in abnormality is all we have ever known, that remains our natural habitat.

We can complain all day, but if we lack how to function in a normal society we will never find a way out of that situation.

It's like a fish wishing for fresh air,
No, all you know is the river and the seas.
Fresh air may look nice, but your desire for it doesn't in any way mean that you know how to survive there.

In other words, like a fish we don't even know how to survive outside our natural ecosystem.

An average Nigerian has been mentally incapacitated and it's made worse because he doesn't know it.

The masters of our pain understand this and they have used it to consolidate and isolate power.

5) You are insensitive to Children

You may think this isn't mental damage, but it actually is, the average Nigerian had such a corrupt and abusive childhood that he has become insensitive to kids

In working society's, child marriage, child labour, child physical abuse aren't issue to rant about online, or make post or create online outrage while the problem continues.

These are issues people RISE and Ensures it is put to a stop
But aside from rejecting it from your family and friends in Jesus name, the average Nigerian doesn't care.

the begging almajiri on the street, or that small boy following a blind man about when he should be in school, invokes nothing but a slight discomfort in you .


Mental Illness…that we must remedy with knowledge

There is a solution and I and my Generation will soon share it, it's a matter of time

A side Note(on God’s Plan for Nigeria)
Also a mental damaging of expecting God to send angels to save Nigeria, when it comes to economic turnaround, that has never happened and we never happen, we are the ones who need a mindshift.


Nigeria isn't the center of Gods agender..God is after souls,
And souls are everywhere, if a nation continues to mismanage resources it will remain poor and God will still be God.

God In the US, God in China and God in Nigeria.
If we don't follow the steps to nation building we will be poor and God will still get his souls one way or the other.


Share this across Every known known outlet…let's wake up our Youths

You don't need to know my name…for now

THE WIND BLOWETH
4) You Don't Know how to exist in a system without Corruption.

Why Nigerians are like this is because this is the only system we have ever known.

Speak for yourself please - I have lived in systems where i do not have to pay anyone or settle or know someone to know someone before i am able to do anything.
Perhaps because while in Nigeria, i never benefitted or rely on government or favor from anyone for anything. My father worked with United Nation, and aside that he raised us in a certain way - For instance, i do not rush to get anything, when i get there and see people jumping queue or acting like barbarians, i step aside or come back when the rowdiness is gone down. I didn't get bursary even as a student, because my father was exempted from Tax....Nigeria didn't do anything for me whatsoever, zero benefit, and it didn't change who i am while living in the same Nigeria...... I do not complain about the things i am unable to have or get - For 33 years of my life, i lived in the system but chose not to allow the system to get to me - I have never offered bribe to anyone before, i ensure i have correct papers for everything, no cutting corners, everything can wait. And when i eventually left 13+years ago, it felt normal to adapt and adjust to the new system.
Me aside, i have seen people also easily adapt. Even while in Nigeria, i do not throw liters away anyhow on the street or through the windows of my car. Changing the nation or anything starts with you, it is not about the government or policies but you as an individual.

Perhaps you were raised to pay your way through everything, be rowdy and get things done at all costs any which way. perhaps that is what skewed your mindset, but do not generalize it. Not everyone is like you or raised as you.

This thing is simple - you get a portion of crude from Federal government in naira, which is in turn enough to supply the Nigeria market, why not sell the crude in naira to Nigerians and sell the crude in dollars for your exported products? This is just criminality.

For people like me that's more interested in the Naira conversion:

West Africa

1. Nigeria — ₦14,552–15,461 (verified) — producer pricing power, glut notwithstanding
2. Ghana — inflation −14.5% YoY (unverified price level) — easing
3. Côte d'Ivoire — ₦8,983–10,688 (estimate) — coastal hub, branded premium
4. Senegal — ₦8,292–9,975 (estimate) — import + regional producers
5. Cameroon — ₦8,983–10,688 (estimate) — dual factory + import
6. Mali/Burkina/Niger — ₦11,056–14,250 (estimate) — Sahel logistics, import dependence

East Africa
7. Tanzania — ₦8,983–10,688 (unverified) — manufacturer hikes, clinker import
8. Kenya — ₦8,983–10,688 (estimate) — imported inputs, FX pressure
9. Uganda — ₦7,601–9,262 (estimate) — landlocked, supplied via neighbours
10. Ethiopia — ₦6,910–8,550 (estimate) — state-linked integrated plants
11. Sudan — ₦11,056–14,250 (estimate) — conflict-disrupted supply

North Africa
12. Egypt — ₦6,219–7,838 (estimate) — big local capacity, cheap gas
13. Algeria — ₦6,219–7,838 (estimate) — state-linked integrated plants
14. Morocco — ₦8,983–10,688 (estimate) — CIMAF hub, coal energy cost
15. Tunisia — ₦6,910–8,550 (estimate) — mature local industry

18. Zimbabwe — ₦9,674–12,112 (estimate) — FX disorder, power shortage
19. Angola — ₦6,910–8,550 (estimate) — oil revenue offsets import
20. Mozambique — ₦7,601–9,262 (estimate) — coastal, regional trade
21. DRC — ₦11,056–13,538 (estimate) — near-landlocked, logistics penalty

Continental weighted average is roughly ₦7,325–9,262.
You sat down, did an estimated cost to make comparison with Nigeria - what kind of statistical data or inference are you drawing on unverified data and information?
I guess you have achieved your aim, which is to attract criers' attention - they are already shedding premium tears under the incomplete data analysis. If you meant well, it doesn't cost anything for you to get an accurate measurable data. Even the price quoted for Nigeria isn't correct. All just to get an attention, keep people cursing and hopeless.

The self-acclaimed world superpower who always need allies - sanctions, blockade, regime change campaign, supply of arms to terrorist to assist them in waging an internal war or engages in global media propaganda to fight a war. They either do all of these, or select a weaker opponent-even at that, they use all their allies and multiple of these tools.
Have you ever seen any war fought by Americans all by themselves without their allies involved in one way or the other?
if Iran were to be weak, France, Uk, and others would have joined in as well. They didn't join because they fear being attacked, not because they feel the war is unjust- all of their wars have been unjust - since they create the narrative using their sponsored medias.
They do not even have the effrontery to confront wars - they are weaklings, cowards.
They bombard secretly, while engaging you in a dialogue, then claim victory and exit. Also, most of their wars do not follow UN engagements. They bombard schools, hospitals, civilians, power greed etc. They mostly do not succeed wherever the people are united or patriotic.

The difference is - are we borrowing externally or internally through Federal government bonds?
Federal governments have looked inward for borrowing - using Federal parameters rather than external borrowing. That is the difference, and another difference between this government and the past governments in NIgeria history is, the President do not write or make it public any internal borrowing - they just dip their hands and take since it is a fund at their disposal. It's even on record, that, as soon as World bank saw that the President wrote to borrow funds, they offered us 11 billion dollars and IMF offered 50 billion, but the government rejected it. Since then, they both have result to media attacks.

Hegseth just repeated similar thing yesterday, America does not care what global law exist - they simply do what they want to do without consequence.

It never made sense even before the war for Dangote to be importing crude oil.

A presidential order can actually guarantee an adequate share of crude oil from Nigeria wells to be supplied to Dangote refinery and the remaining can be exported..

But Tinubu's power is only about winning elections. No plans to make life comfortable for Nigerians.
That's how he rushed to build coastal road when Nigeria is struggling to generate 5,000 megawatts of electricity.
The amount spent on coastal road is enough to build power plants that can generate additional 10,000 megawatts.
Nigeria is worst affected because petrol runs almost everything. You need petrol to have water in your homes. You need petrol to run your businesses.
Many of you are as ignorant as what I cannot imagine or describe.... Perhaps you should try leave your comfort zone and move around the globe or do a little digging - Try using your brain to make investigation of your own.

90% of allegations from a Nigerian woman against men are often false. 70% are often initiated by them, when you opt for pull out, they will use everything against you to run you down.
They have often succeeded in Nigeria, using their bromance with Nigerian forces and system to get their way 9the popular ones).

To succeed in life, avoid them, to excel as a an of God, keep distance, they will throw themselves at you, and still turn to blame you for it. Women naturally seek a powerful man, an influential man, spiritual man - That's why you see them always around these people in their numbers. They do not have problems o, they just want to bring you down just as they brought holy men down.

The America's war equipment has been so exposed as ineffective against a formidable opponents. But you do not expect America to accept that, accepting that means they will lose the market to competitors.
First, it was Russia exposing the lapses in their equipment, and then Pakistan vs India few days war. Now Iran.

The truth is, can America fight you heads on with equal opportunities to resources and economy? Absolutely not.
They fight by first weakening your capacity to live, breathe, produce war machines, regime change, uproar (by paying unpatriotic citizens to betray you). When they feel they have choked you enough, then they come attacking.

Iran has been under sanction for over 40 years, 47 years precisely. Yet these people are living, have been able to survive and at the same time build a defense for themselves.

Since their economic war hasn't worked against them, they want to come militarily. But they cannot do it alone even though they lie to themselves they are the strongest military world-wide. If they believe themselves, they won't be using proxies and economic war to fight Russia and China. Yes, they have quite a multitude of expensive piece of irons called, but mostly ineffective. the toilets on their Aircrafts carrier were not working for weeks.

Their style of warfare is hit and run. then push proxies to fight you - such as NATO (32 countries put together). They had to use these many countries to be able to overcome Libya, Yemen is still standing militarily, they spent 20 years in Afghanistan to replace Taliban with another Taliban, with America losing thousands of men for nothing and equipment.

Since 1999, ASUU has gone on nationwide strikes more than 16 times, totaling over 1,700 days (about 4.7 years) of university shutdowns

Buhari – ~580–630 days
Obasanjo – ~541 days
Jonathan – ~359 days
Yar’Adua – ~127 days

Tinubu – 0 days 💯🥂💪🏾

Obasanjo made me spend 7 years in the University without single extra year or extra semester - That guy almost ruined our lives.

That's why someone like me will never ever pray or wish good for any PDP member, past or present. That man would not even mind protesters - he would use Mobile Police to block the entrances of our universities, add soldiers to it. they will beat hell out of anyone caught demonstrating. I hate OBJ with passion. There was a time we sat at home for straight 8 months, another one 6 months and several other smaller months. They merged batches for admission later on sef. Nigeria's education system under him was terrible-

That's why anytime that witch Oby Ezekwesili talks, i sigh....as education minster she was horrific. She was always disagreeing with ASUU, condemning their demands. The same woman today complains about Nigeria not working when she was a monumental failure. She should point out 1 reform she brought to education system or university.

America cannot fight anyone heads on- they fight you by first placing abundant sanctions to cripple you, weaken you, then media campaign and steering up gangs against you before they attack you.

In a fair system with level playing grounds, they cannot withstand many nations. Most of their weapons are expensive overhyped pieces of shits. Good on papers but cannot stand many nations power. and they fight you very far from home, for fear of uprising bring the war to their own homes. The regime change will start from there if nations start hitting them right from their home.

They seek gold, power and control while protecting their businesses. they have tried to penetrate Nigeria many times - they help launder money for the sponsors of Boko Haram. It is also the hide-out of all the world evil perpetrators - they only arrest who does not belong to the clique who steps on any member of the clique.

EducationRe: The Same Rage For Paternity Fraud: Apply It To Degree Procurement. by djseanjohn77: 11:22am On Mar 08
StoriesUpdate:
The Same Rage for Paternity Fraud: Apply It to Degree Procurement.

The decadence and rote in the education system have left degree holders shameless, deserving no respect or trust, and with no moral obligations. They have completely obliterated every form of moral compass in society.

Your social status doesn’t matter.
Your oratory prowess cum fluency in spoken English, your fancy suits, exotic cars, and position in society do not suffice to the fact that during your first degree, you procured mercenaries to write your exams and do your project. It cannot be forgiven that, during your master's, MBA, or PhD, you cited, “I’m busy at work and hardly have time for myself,” and then you contracted your project work to someone to help you get it done. You deserve no place in the midst of intellectuals.


This is your situation.
A perfect scenario of your situation is likened to that of a cheating wife who got pregnant by another man while still married to her caring and loving husband. The husband has taken care of the child for a reasonable number of years, bonding with and caring for the child with no reservation, and finally finds out through a DNA test that the child he had cared for for so many years is not biologically his. Imagine the pain, the agony, and the rage that brews in that man’s eyes with heartbreak. From the woman's perspective, she feels shame and regret at that moment. Taken together, this is how you who earned the degrees you're proud of are meant to feel. Shame, shame, and more shame, and society should treat you with disdain with the kind of anger the man with a failed paternity test feels.


Let’s put this in another perspective.
Like the story of the leper in the bible, the way lepers were treated in society back then ought to be your reality in the committee of intellectuals. If you are reading this article, you should not be appointed to any public office or allowed to lead any sensitive role. Because, tell me, how would you feel, for instance, as a man, if you saw a beautiful lady whom you admire? You approached her, exchanged contacts, started dating, went through the full courtship process, and planned and executed a court wedding, a traditional marriage, and a white wedding. On the night marking the beginning of your honeymoon, you booked an exclusive exotic island with premium services. Then you procure a man to make love to your newly married wife. Your reason is that you are busy with work-related responsibilities. Mind you, you are very healthy and sound, with the right energy to give any woman the best treatment and satisfaction in the bedroom. This man you contracted with enjoys your beautiful, elegant, and gorgeous newlywed wife and has gotten her pregnant with twin baby boys. Tell me, as a man, will you be proud of yourself in the midst of legitimate fathers in your circle, knowing that those boys are not biologically yours? The answer is NO. This is how the procurement of degrees feels demeaning.

Pause your education if you are busy with work. It is not a do-or-die affair.
If you are busy with work and you are unable to handle both work responsibilities and education, quit or pause the studies and concentrate on what puts food on your table, and then continue with your academic pursuit when you feel you have the time instead of ridiculing yourself for procuring a degree. You should fail an exam or project and retake it, not pay someone to write an exam for you or do your project work. Your PhD, MBA, Master’s, and BSc project work is not an “invention programme". You are not tasked to invent something new that has never existed. This is research on existing events, so using artificial intelligence is not a crime.


Should I use AI in my research?
Yes, using AI to aid your research is ideal. What is not acceptable is using AI-generated content as your final product. This is why paraphrasing was imperative, especially when there was no internet and no AI. Research was conducted in the libraries and through site visits. However, the information gathered was paraphrased in your own words, making it original. So while you are using the right prompts to get the best research results from AI platforms, you need to paraphrase them into your own words. This will not only boost your writing skills but also give you the confidence to speak boldly about the research topic without fear.

It is better to score a C (Pass) by yourself than to score an A (Distinction) by procurement.
Back then, in secondary school during WAEC, some teachers organized mercenaries to help students with the exams. This was championed by a teacher called 'Uncle X', not his real name. Uncle X has been in this business for 25+ years. He looks good and dresses well, and all the young, beautiful teaching practice ladies flirted with him, and he “bagged” them all. Uncle X didn’t need to touch his meager teacher's salary to fund his expensive lifestyle; he was making enough money from exam-mercenary supplies. During the exams, he would ask students to pay a specified amount. In my set, the fee was N1000 per student (in 2001). Students who paid will be separated from those who didn’t, and the exam halls were named Heaven and Hell.

Most of the challenges we faced at my school were due to a lack of teachers.
Some subjects never had a teacher. Further Mathematics (Engineering Maths) was one of the subjects with no teacher in the entire school. As a mathematics lover and science student, I purchased the Further Mathematics textbooks: Projects 1, 2, and 3. The books were for SS1, SS2, and SS3, respectively. I engaged in self-study and group studies with my friends. During the exams, a few of my friends and I refused to pay the N1000 for the exam aid, and, as you can tell, we were isolated from those who paid and were sent to the “Hell” exam hall with strict invigilation. In the end, I earned a C in further mathematics, did well in other subjects, and went on to obtain a BSc and an MBA with no form of procurement.

The irony of this story is that, in my class at the time, there was a particular student whom we all knew was a dullard. He was among the bad, illiterate boys who sat in the back row and never answered questions or passed tests. But at the end of our WAEC exam. He emerged as the best-performing student, with many As (Distinctions). He couldn't even believe his own results, so that he couldn’t celebrate them. So how did he ace the exam? He paid the “Heavenly Exam Hall” fee and a special package, too. He had a mercenary who wrote the entire exam for him. So you see the negative effects of degree procurement: a lack of confidence and pride in defending it. So for those of you who have procured your PhD, MBA, Master’s, or even BSc, you should hide your faces in shame. The Dr., Prof, or any form of appellation that prefixes your name is marred with moral decadence and shamelessness. It does not matter the political position you hold, the leadership role you hold in society, or the wealth you have amassed; you are simply a degree miller who should be an outcast like the lepers in the Bible, far from hardworking academics at intellectual gatherings.

This is the conversation i have been having with some people recently, I have maintained that many of these people always attacking government, saying they need new governance, many of them have benefitted from the rot, therefore they are part of the rot they condemn.

Graduates are as good as uneducated - many are unproductive, cannot solve basic life problems talk-less of complex job problems. I am and Environmental & Sustainability Manager abroad, I have few Nigerians I have helped guide in the job, however, the way some of them handle simple and basic data calculations is disturbing as a sustainability specialist. Some do not even know Mean, Median, Mode - simplest statistical data analysis, how much more complex. I have taught and continue to teach, explain that i am now fed up. My baby girl is 9, she is smart and will solve this at a GO. When you have to explain same thing for years and you ended up helping them prepare their reports, then it is frustrating.
I have come to the conclusion that, these are one of those who paid through education, or all together did even acquire one. All they can do is speak English.
Some dumb people will say in abroad, your education is not required or necessary - but what life problems can you solve? You can't even demonstrate critical thinking, yet you talk down on education. You think these are things you acquire with your dumb head? You must have a form of education. Elon Musk and the rest didn't just rise to the top, they are either secretly supported by Mossad, used by the government (government create wealth for selected individuals they use especially for data collection - I can't say more than that). Even at that, these people use the brain of other educated people to achieve their billionaire status.
I belonged to the class where your hand has to touch your ears before you are deemed right for primary school. I was the last set in the mid 80s. Then my secondary school then is better than many private secondary schools today (mushroom schools). We had every apparatus and chemicals/agents for sciences - we had standard laboratories, and one of the best teachers. My school back then in the 90s usually top the SSCE distinction list..on 2 occasions we were the overall best school.
My secondary school was better equipped than LASU of those years. The school already prepared us for the challenges ahead, ours was the era of A1, A2 & A3 before B was introduced.

Iran is the only true independent state in this region - Their fate and future is in their hands, their security, their lives and that of their people are in their hands. No one dictates to them and that is why we have this war. They do not want to be vassal to any imperialism.

The rest pays America heavily for security and protection, they rely on America to survive and whilst they themselves pursue their own agenda in smaller African Arab countries.
They need America badly to hold on to power in their different state, otherwise their own people would have rebelled against them, demanding for freedom and liberation from one family rule.
