Properties / Re: Question About Cost To Build by EddyWorld(m): 5:58pm On Mar 15, 2015
Glamrock, please be very careful with making any financial commitments on the Internet to any contractor. There are a lot of fraudsters on the Internet looking for unwary people to swindle them of their hard earned cash. It's great u have such an ambition to relocate here but please you need to be very careful so your experience will be exciting as your dream, rather than regretting your move. Never make any financial commitments on the Internet. I will suggest you talk to established real estate companies about your intention to buy a house and please don't even reveal that you are currently based in US until at the point that you have actually visited Calabar and see things yourselves (it's a very lovely city and one of the most peaceful around here). Though, it may cost you more, but you will be rest assured you are not being swindled. In addition, even if you are talking to an established real estate company, NEVER NEVER make any financial commitment or send cash to anybody online. You will not get your money back. My suggestion will be to buy an already built house where you don't have to deal with a host of issues associated with buying a land, developing it and building a house, and please do this through an established real estate firm and a bank, NOT through an individual, not even on Nairaland. I wish you all the best.

Politics / Re: Yoruba May Determine Who Wins The Presidency In 2015 by EddyWorld(m): 3:27am On May 08, 2013
This is an incisive analysis and objectively and comprehensively written. Quite frankly, what Nigeria needs at this critical moment are effective leaders whether they be Christians or Muslims, but to be realistic, religion and ethnicity play great roles in electing our leaders. Aside from the religious point of view, a Shekarau-Fashiola or a Tambuwal-Fashola ticket will be a strong combination. I'm of the opinion that Buhari should play the role of a party leader given the fact that he is not much seen as a presidential material in the south. However, given that most of us vote along tribal and religious lines, maybe a Shekarau-Oshiomole or Tambuwal-Oshiomole combination might be the alternative if the south-west can vote in block, this combination will certainly give the PDP sleepless nights and much thought. First, Oshiomole is from the south-south the same region with Jonathan. If the South-West doesn't eventually switch to vote for Jonathan like they did in the 2011 election, I think this might eventually be the combination that will make the PDP rethink their strategies. Most certainly, the core north will flock to their own, south-south votes will be divided, hopefully south-west votes will significantly go to the opposition. Jonathan will be left with the north- central and south-east who predictably will vote in block as usual for him. All in all, it will be an interesting scenario to watch, but we must face the fact that anything can happen in Nigeria's politics as the PDP will not fold their hands and allow the opposition to wrest power from them. We still have a long way to go till 2015 and many things could redefine the political horizon. If the PDP house is divided against itself as the ensuing in-fighting in the governors forum lingers and eventually lead to a break away faction, then 2015 will be very interesting to watch.

dayokanu:

Almost every Hispanic kid born in the US speak Spanish in addition to English

So what Stone age mentality are we talking about here?

Every Indian speaks their local language

So tell us what advantage a Nigerian born kid who speaks only English have over those who speak both English and their local language

Some of us are yet to embrace the diversity that Nigeria is made up. You forgot that these countries you mentioned have their national language or a common language. Do we have such? We are so different in different ways culturally in Nigeria that English as a common or 'so called foreign' language has found a natural acceptance.

Afam4eva: There are so many slave wannabees on the thread. It's really sickening.

My grouse is not even that a lot of parents teach their kids English but the fact that they make a deliberate attempt to not make them speak their local language. Even when the kids go out of their way, the parents will puish their kid cos in their slave mind, learning a local language will spoil their English. This is ludicrous.

I think the government has to do something to nip this stupidity in the bud. They have to make it a must for you to be able to speak your language in order to gain admission into the university or to get a job.


Say NO to slavery.


This is the most ridiculous thing and I bet you that such a bill will not even get a single vote in the House of Representatives. What has learning your local dialect got to do with academic performance in the university? This is 21st century and not the Stone Age. Please wake up!
