I am concerned about the consistent narrative that Northern states are being left behind. While addressing regional disparities is important, we must also ask: what about the challenges faced by the Southern states? Shouldn't all regions receive equitable attention to ensure balanced development?

It’s essential to acknowledge that the Northern states have historically received certain incentives, such as lower JAMB cut-off scores and other support measures. However, it is worth reflecting on whether these approaches have achieved their intended goals and if they remain fair in the current context.

Equity must be our watchword, ensuring that every region is empowered based on need and potential. Let us have an honest, inclusive discussion about how to address these issues comprehensively and sustainably

TemporaryHansel:
Course??

Yes course. Academic

Can Peter Obi donate to me and my course?

I promise to use the money judicuously

Beautiful

Did you all actually "vote" for him? It is my understanding that he was selected so deal with your choices just like you dealt with Buhari. Stop disturbing us all with your tales of discontent.

I thought it was a skit when I first saw the video a few days go. So, it's 'real'. Wonderful

Not nearly enough.

Very shameful

haybhi1:
lol... everyone is obsessed with it. It's become an extremely weaponized tool to enjoy life. A metric for living, and it doesn't start today. So please, allay the younger generation of the blames please.

I will try

I understand now why the younger generation is obsessed with money

Do we have a choice to say no to BRICS?

Don't bother. We all know that it is unlikely to happen

1.2 million. Congratulations to Gov Soludo

Calitoscassius:
Now you are lecturing me on how i must share my views?

More rubbish feelings.

Useless

Calitoscassius:
Only you, why would you feel sad for him? He doesn't even feel sad himself. What kinda rubbish feelings is that?

You can share your views and still make your point respectfully without being insolent.

I feel sad for him. Who else feels the same way?

It's insulting

Terrible

Itooweak4una:
Seriously this is the rubbish pushed to the frontpage.

Whoever is in charge of pushing topics to Frontpage needs to be sacked. Horrible job by the lad.

Well said.

Hmmmm

Really pretty.

Angelfrost:
Lol... Like they will know if variant is here.

As if they have or keep proper records.

My thoughts exactly

Confirmed it how? Do we even have the resources to confirm covid-19 variants

Konquest:
True that.

Indeed, when the Nigerian-American, Dr. Julius Oni left his job at the Johns Hopkin University as a musculo-skeletal specialist in the United States and moved back to Nigeria a few months ago in 2024 after 25 years of living in the U.S., some posters online said he was "mad" for doing so. But this is a self-aware guy who already has real estate investments in Nigeria and took that conscious decision to move over to Nigeria with the full support of his wife to start his own specialist medical facility after selling his house in the United States. He still maintains professional ties with Johns Hopkin though.

I follow the brilliant Julius Oni (who is originally a native of Ile-Oluji in Ondo State and still in his 40s) on Instagram and the original video he posted on IG including subsequent videos went absolutely viral. Since then, he has had a lot of media engagements from media outlets who interviewed him and that gave him massive publicity and clients.

I was on a YouTube channel of one of the top media brands with over 1 million subscribers and another U.S.-based doctor of Nigerian descent posted a comment on the channel stating that he has been inspired by Dr. Julius Oni's "Reverse Japa" story and he too was already planning to give back to Nigeria by setting up a specialist medical facility in Nigeria. That's the power of putting yourself out there and telling a POWERFUL story that would be of benefit for all.

Very well said👏👏

femi4:
No spiritual risk whatsoever. Leave that thing

I totally agree. These risks simply do not exist. I fear for our collective mental state. It's really primitive

femi4:
Just do you. No village people anywhere. Away with this naija mentality. Oyinbo will do preggy trimester till she put to bed on social media n nothing will happen

People fail to understand that there are benefits and risks in every single thing that we do.

Posting one's achievements on social media has some benefits as well as risks. Does the benefit outweigh the risks? What exactly are these risks? Are they actual risks based on cold facts or are they just Nollywood inspired?

luminouz:
Lmaooo...you are telling me to do exactly what I don't do. Oh I have so many achievements but NL is also SM. If I start counting them here, I'm fûcked. I prefer to be the punkass, brokeass, redpill troll everyone here thinks I am. It's more fun that way.

Nice engaging with you on this topic but now it's back to troll mode.

Same time tomorrow? See ya!!

Didn't expect anything less. Happy trolling.

luminouz:
Lmaooo .what else you think I post, my bedmatic skills? Scholastic achievements of course. But I learned early enough NEVER to do it again. Stay hidden and grow..that's my motto.

That's strange. How exactly does one hide their scholastic achievements? They are there for you to announce it to the skies. What's the point of getting all that education if noone knows about it?

Hold on, can you carefully tell me what you think scholastic achievements mean? What did you study in school and what degrees, if any, have you obtained?

luminouz:
Yeah...I give you shiit most times but on this topic, I'm being real with my last post. SM validation doesn't work for me but I'm glad you are benefitting from it.

Thanks. I hope it works someday for you too

luminouz:
It may work for you and that's fine but don't ever think evil people or village people don't monitor. That's a very wrong assumption.

Seeking online validation by posting my life has never worked for me. It's not in my nature and never worked out well. I excel better when I keep my mouth shut and my hands busy hustling. My star/moon or whatever zodiac attracts too much envy and jealousy from others and I can't keep looking over my shoulder. You seem fine though...good luck

Also valid.

Perhaps my star is different from yours because at this point, I have remote jobs that pay better than my current job, all because I 'overshare'.

I really don't know what you all do in your social media space but mine is simply tailored to show off my skill set and scholastic achievements.

luminouz:
Someone cannot play with you again?🙄

I am used to you contradicting everything I say.

luminouz:
So you like online validation. Like almost all women. You just can't do without it.

Urghhh 👿

Please read my posts carefully to understand the message that I am trying to pass along.

The only opinion or validation that I need or listen to is mine and mine alone. I post my achievements because I am very proud of it and even though it may make others mad or uncomfortable, I sincerely couldn't care less.

**I just realized that it is you. Figures. I shouldn't have wasted my time replying
