Draxler:Haha...... Bro it's nothing... Atleast we can't come online and be so incomprehensible. I thank God am a product of a Private University and would go to a private uni over and over again if I have to...why go to a federal uni when all most of them dwell on is past Glory? A school where its 200 students to an equipment during practicals..a school where victimization is the order of the day??... A school where strikes occur at anytime and delay is part of the school calender... The list is endless.. #irepAjayiCrowtherUni... #irepGeology.. #thankGodforprivateUni... |

Akeema14:Dude...No one said kwara is not a yoruba speaking state but since u don't understand my post kindly allow me to school u abit...what I posted is basically the geography...kwara is North central....check ur map...kwara is made up of nupe/fulani/hausa...geographically you share boundary with Niger state plus if u pay attention to history ilorin was invaded by the fulani...this is why u have places like geri alimini, sulu gambari and so on...talking bout kwaraa bein predominantly Muslims...am not too sure of the averages but I know offa- Erin Ile axis has a higher percentage of muslims so also ilorin. Finally kwara is a yoruba speaking state doe it's not under the SW-geopolitical zone...and it's regarded as one of the 19-Northan states. So chairman what did I falsely deduce with a fallacious context? I rep Kwara B'15... and so far so good..kwara has been peaceful..... |
DrMeroThaEmperor:Your opinion! |
DrMeroThaEmperor:Daddy first to serve...I hail you..if u must know na me dem threaten pass say dem go post go remote location...But am here serving in ilorin... I love the fact that u were serving while I was writing jamb doe....coz it shows how out of date ur record is....2012/2013 is a really long time...and it's not like kwara is a place which is growing...if u must know u can't get all the free stuff anymore apart from accommodation ...the free transport and all is gone.... You can go read from the beginning of this thread, no serving or ex corps member has ridiculed kwara. Chairman abeg...lts not about fun...the only thing you get serving outside ilorin is electricity..and it's not errywwhere..i do respect that u are an elder states man I only implore you to see it from my point of view. It's not erryone who will get ilorin...All they need to do is pray that if dey don't fall under ilorin they will land in a good place like u did...instead of landing in baruten or kaiama. |
DrMeroThaEmperor:Odunharry please come and see this comedian... You no even call offa you dey call omu-aran..where the only bank present is in landmark? Dude because you are not opportuned to serve in ilorin doesn't mean omu aran is better..the only place almost as good as ilorin remains offa... Ilorin happens to be the state capital so you have 100% social amenities plus accessibility to errything you might want... Offa on the oda hand has her banks closing between 10am and 12pm.. Omu-aran has just 1bank and it's not like you have access 100% access to it..reason being it's in landmark and they don't let people in anyhow... Young man people in oke-ero and the omu-aran sef come to ilorin for supplies n u say am misleading people? Bros it's not ryt oo...ask around properly before you just jump to conclusion. |
Odunharry:Abi ooo...dem no sabi waddup...especially with this state coordinator wey dey do like jagaban.... Ilorin south go take about 300 corpers...and dats about same for west and east.. Inside 4500 corpers na only 900 get probability of bin in ilorin the remaining 2600 dey go all d weird places with no light no water and worse of all prolly no network. |
Odunharry:Comrade Odun I hail you ooo.... A'15 toh sure... Make dem dey jonze dey find light...na dem go tire na... Make dem post him go Tanke make he go dey stay amuyo or idofian coz of light... |
abbeymaniak:Hope your stuff ain't too big... You will be required to carry your luggage on ur head when you get to camp... plus do frog jump from the military check to the gate for check in. |

suco01:Haha....... Do I really need to go over this? |
LMAyedun:It depends on where in ilorin you are posted to. If you are posted to ilorin south...ur main challenge is cost of accommodation. You should know that the state does not pay allowance. Also electricity and water is also cray.. Every oda stuff is on a cheap. |
Y'all are welcome to the state of Harmony... Team kwara #B15 |
