The question is most Nigerian federal , state and local government workers , how productive are they.

Does there input into the system generate that amount or they just want to be paid for doing nothing

So he was arrested to prevent fight from starting. Read what you just typed, Listen to yourself, how do you think you sound? Debt matter is a civil matter.
The only way out for police in this is to cook up charges of fraud. If na just debt as dem talk, it is a civil case and and no ne should be detained.

superCleanworks:


Don't mind them. But it is good to see such comments so you know the mental capacity of your fellow Nigerians.
Army and Police harrass them on the road for a civil matter and they start to beg and cry because they have zero idea of their rights and this collective stupidity is what gives the police the power to harass people.

So if they start fighting each other physically and start constituting nuisance in the society that will be better than involving police, right?

Unfortunately for good educaiton, citizens must bear the burden...either in heavy taxes, or student loans. Even the grants some students get are funded by heavy taxes.

As for subsidy removal,even with that, we cannot earn enough money for qaulity universites. That is why I keep shouting we have to get off oil dependency, and improve tax quality

Volksfuhrer:
Mr Kperogi Farook, it’s too early for all this. When you restructure an economy, it gets worse before it gets better. Mobility of resources isn’t instantaneous, it takes time: hence the externalities we are witnessing now. A little research on your part would have done you a lot of good even if you had never taken a course in economics! The Freudian slip you inferred was petty; you are a PhD, you should know better!

nairalanda1:
Yes, he is right.

(If you want to quote me to abuse me, you will be reported to the moderators. You can be mature about disagreeing with me)

The harsh truth is that funding our universities is a difficult thing. IN 2009, ASUU and government signed an agreement. BY 2013, the money had not been paid, and by 2018, about less than one third of the money promised had been paid...and that's it.

IN 2018, the then VC of ABU, Zaria, gave a speech. IN the speech he stated that his overheads were 600million for the year. Government gave him 120 million and told him to find the rest of the money...like how? That is how he ended up saying ....you want cambridge level, charge cambridge level fees.

You cannot pay fees less than 200000 and expect quality worth 2billion naira. It is not possible. I know that most of us are poor....and so forth, but the thing is, unviersites cost money. Too much money to run, to pay teachers and other staff, to buy equipment. Our universites are in an atrocious state, and paying such low fees, and then pretending we can reach the level of a Harvard or Oxford is a joke. The oil money we have, even if we fight corruption, cannot raise our universites to high level, without us spending over half our budget on the thing.

Yes, our fathers went to university for free...back when there were less than 7 universites with about 4000 students or less. Govt then could manage. Today, the numbers are going up.

God knows I hate the Tinubu loan scheme, and I know it would fail, but what are the alternatives? Taxation, we no gree. Punish corruptuion, we gree...until it is our side (See how people were angry at the US senate for going after GEJ, AND I know how BAT People get annoyed when bullion vans and drug money is mentioned, and then Obi and Pandora and money in the car...and then Atiku own self...lol)...then we no go gree. Pay ASUU their money, we no gree. Diversify the economy, we no gree. Industrialise, we no gree.

Either we find 30 trillion naira every year. or more for education alone, or we just accept that tuition fees is all that is left. Nigeria is a broke nation. The corruption makes it worse. And even if we fought the corruption AS WE SHOULD...it would still not be enough.

My friend SHUT UP.

Empty head.

I can take you to some hospitals in Nigeria today that are better than many hospitals in the UK. I have lived there, so I know.

Most of you are VERY simple-minded, with a very deep complex.

You don’t know anything, yet you think you know everything.

Right now there are first class private hospitals in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt who handle elite patients from places like Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, Liberia, Guinea, South Sudan, Sierra Leone, DRC, and other places.

They fly in quietly and do CT scans and other stuff not readily available in their countries. They pay in dollars and fly back home quietly.

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK WE WILL NOT HAVE SUCH HOSPITALS IN NIGERIA?

There are NUMEROUS Nigerian doctors who have RELOCATED from the US and established top medical establishments here with state of the art equipment.

Some of them even have foreign patients they treated when they worked abroad, who insist on still seeing them, even if they’ve moved to Nigeria. They fly in here, get their check-up and fly back out.

A LOT GOES ON WHICH YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT.

Most of you are just kids who don’t know anyone or anything apart from the simpleton generalised stereotypes and rubbish that only sees things in black and white with no grey areas.

So irritating. And then when they try to enlighten you, your thick block heads insist on remaining ignorant and cretinous.


My guy you know nothing about the Nigerian health sector. Even our neighbouring African countries have better hospitals than Nigeria.
The hospital with MRI or CT scan imagines working 247 is not up to 5% of the total hospitals.
Have you ever seen a foreignal book flight and visa and say he is coming to Nigeria for medical intervention ... even less complicated procedures like botox or plastic surgery ... never
You just want to argue what you don't know. South Africa hospitals is the closest to developed countries hospitals in Africa and even then its 1 or 2 that leave their countries to come there

Nigerians that go abroad and come back to establish mega hospitals, have you ever gone in there to see their standard of treatment? They still employ incompetent and cheap labour to maximise profit. You will see the abroad trained doctor acting as orthopaedic doctor, gynaecologist, paediatrician and all in his private hospital in Nigeria.
Have you gone to a hospital abroad? Only viginal delivery that a woman want to do .. there will be a paediatrician, paediatric nurse, neonatologist, O and G specialist on ground and active. In Nigeria if you get a doctor on ground you are lucky. If he is even around he will be with other patients.
Abeg make I nor talk before I expose too much.

OH SHUT UP, with your ONE TRACK MIND.

Go to India. Doctors are doing Japa to US and Canada daily.

But foreigners STILL travel to India for medical treatment.

I know your simple mind cannot comprehend such complex realities.

Dumbasses with free internet.

StOla:


You are still making the same mistake.

You saved £5000 in a year in UK and you say you have made it?

Money that will not pay for 5months of Nanny care if you have kids.

Meanwhile N500k that is not even the equivalent of the pound amount, will pay for nanny care for 8months.

Whatever you have saved in US or UK, is for later expenditure where you are. Stop comparing it to what a Nigerian saved for later expenditure in Nigeria.

As you do not earn the same, you do not save the same, and you will never later consume the savings the same.

They are 2 separate economies, and they do not meet at the point of savings expenditure.

Angelfrost:


He has finally built the right foundation.

He just needs to buffer up that defense, and get a top 9.

StOla:


That $300 to $500 the career saved in a month, is it not savings that will later be expended in that same economy.

If I save in Nigeria, I save it to later spend in Nigeria, so same applies to the savings in the UK to be later spent in the UK.

Stop tying your UK savings to a future Nigerian expenditure.

StOla:
God forbid the day I will abandon a well paying Nigerian job just because I want to put on winter jacket in UK while my face is unhappy and my health is terribly under stress.

I do not mind doing it for a job or immigration to the USA where opportunities abound for even the very 1st generation of the immigrant family, but UK is a big NO.

The majority of Nigerians who have been in the UK since the early 1980s, they have not made it till today. Their children have not made it too.

The wise 3rd generation have embraced sport and entertainment, so that the curse of the UK will not happen to the 3rd generation of the family.

If you go to the UK, you are going there to suffer so that maybe your 3rd generation family can finally live wealthy.

Tareq1105:


You're very stupid for calling him criminal.

Do you know his entitlements as Dep Gov?

Deputy Governor refurbishing old vehicles recovered from a former dep gov. It's a shame. If I were Shaibu I wouldn't take it from the onset. He deserves new vehicles.

Was Obaseki using vehicles Oshomhole left? Why's Obaseki this wicked?

I discovered that all those who commented before me lacked knowledge of government.

They don't even know what and what Phillip Shaibu was entitled to under the law as Dep Gov. They were just condemning him. Education is very important in life. Pls get it no matter the cost.

Shaibu deserve better than this. He doesn't deserve old refurbished vehicles as Dep Gov then after using it for over 7 years, you want him to return it.

It's very unfair.

Definitely this is not help.... Something you did while expecting thanks is not an help... Either he wore the cloth or not shouldn't be your problem.... You have done your best for him and why not wait for God to reward you.... You never can tell the guy might cherish the cloth to the extent of keeping it as one of his best cloth that need to be wear while going to an important occasion...simply because you haven't seen the guy put on the cloth doesn't means he didn't appreciate...

Good morning Nairalanders, I will try to make this as brief as possible.

It happened last two week's Friday, after sleeping with a prostitute, the sex laster about 49 mins and after ejaculation I saw thick red blood all over my dick, it happened that she was on her period, and hide it from me, which she denied that she thought it has completely dried off, I'm mad at myself because I didn't use a condom. "I haven't been using condom with her though, I last had sex with her about a month plus that was the evening of my marriage day, since then I haven't called or had sex with her, until I went back last two weeks Friday.

So after everything, I went home that evening and took 3 cipro tab, next day, my groin was extremely painful and the lymph nodes on my groin swelled. Two days later I developed a mild fever, accompanied by a light headache, bitter mouth and 4 day's later I had sore throat, and swollen lymph nodes on my both under jaws and front of my right ear. Until now my throat is still sore.

I have taken full pack of cipro tab and other drugs but it's not working, I did syphilis text on Saturday and it came back negative, yesterday I went for more text but the lab attendant isn't around, so I met the Dr on duty and explained everything that happened, he told me not to waste my money to conduct more tests that what I have is chicken pox and not an STD infection, I disagreed because I have previously had chicken pox about 11 years ago, although I had just one boil close to my nose back then when I contracted it.

So he gave me these drugs below, I swallowed it last night and applied the lotion, but instead of the boils to dry down, they became more fresher and ripe when I woke up this morning.

I went to another lab this morning and the Dr I met told me that it's chicken pox, he gave me drugs and injection. I'm highly hoping for it to be effective.

Please, Dr's in the house is this really chicken pox? They're all over my face, little on my head, arms, legs, stomach, beards and back.

Nazgul:
I honestly do not support this. So if a child graduates from secondary school at 15 and clears his/her WAEC. What the government is telling us is that if the child's parents cannot afford a private school, the child would stay idle at home for 3 years before giving university education a shot.

That's like delaying the academic advancement of that child. Very bad if you ask me.

And for the records, I finished my secondary education at the age of 15.

Stargurl20:


Yinmu. Truth is bitter. This isn't me saying I wouldn't work or wouldn't support my spouse. I'm not a lazy person.

But truth will always be truth. Even God Himself made it known. But una no go gree. Na the most bitter truth for modern man be that. Una wan claim head and still wan do 50/50 responsibility with woman.

Una no know say once responsibility is been divided, the role of being an head will also be divided. For example, two of us be friends and we gather money by car, e don mean say you no fit do anything with the car without my consent na. Even if I contributed the smaller part of the money used in purchasing the car, I will still have a say to an extent.

In this life, we cannot eat our cake and have.

NB: I'm not encouraging women not to support their husbands. By the grace of God I will support my husband and that wouldn't in any way reduce his honor in my presence. However, him having the idea that it's my duty could be annoying. It's not wife's duty to do that but we understand the economy.

If a woman is insisting that the husband supports her with chores una go talk say na enslavement or feminism.

Spouses should be support to one another. At the same time, let's be conscious of our roles..

EreluRoz:
You are just insecure that's all.

I get pissed whenever I see a man typing hardworking to describe a lady. Men of these days are just after women to drain, if not for the harsh society a woman is naturally not created to work.

Modern men are just after women that will take up their role, it's the mentality for me, so disgusting.

If a woman chooses to work, it's to take care of herself and not for any man to come leech on. Mtcheww
