Some people are dumb sha

You don't need to grow rice to mill it.

Any more than you need to grow raw cocoa to produce chocolate......

Sambo is an id1ot

Is useless talk alone like his what will solve deep problems like lack of power

These guys are too sentimental. Or stvpid. Or both.

It honestly doesn't matter either way. There is nothing wrong with buying raw products from elsewhere and making refined products from it.

Hell, this is what the rest of the world has done to Africa for hundreds of years...and they've made a handsome profit doing so

The purpose of a factory is to turn inputs into outputs. Presumably one wants to source those inputs as cheaply as possible. Sometimes the cheapest input is local, other times it is not..

Either way, doesn't matter

It doesn't really matter whether the rice is grown in Nigeria or not.

Nigerian government...full of lazy whiners and complainers.

Lol. And who is buying these so-called substandard goods?

If many Nigerians are not happily buying them, there won't be any market.

Rather than complaining, improve electricity in the country so that there will be more alternatives.

delomos: It assumes that more code in the world is an inherently desirable thing. In my thirty year career as a programmer, I have found this … not to be the case. Should you learn to write code? No, I can't get behind that. You should be learning to write as little code as possible. Ideally none.

It assumes that coding is the goal. Software developers tend to be software addicts who think their job is to write code. But it's not. Their job is to solve problems. Don't celebrate the creation of code, celebrate the creation of solutions. We have way too many coders addicted to doing just one more line of code already.

It puts the method before the problem. Before you go rushing out to learn to code, figure out what your problem actually is. Do you even have a problem? Can you explain it to others in a way they can understand? Have you researched the problem, and its possible solutions, deeply? Does coding solve that problem? Are you sure?

I agree with this. Solving problems should be the goal, not writing code.

Eh. How can you blindly throw your support behind words that were at best tasteless, and probably dangerous and idiotic?

I strongly disagree with the ACNs position on this.

In any case, wetin concern them about a dispute between CPC and PDP?

This is the sort of thing I would have hoped my state would take initiative on.

Alas.....

This is because we have identified power as very critical to Nigeria’s Industrial Revolution Plan.

Understatement of the decade, lol.

Well said.

Computing is really important. As for the way forward in Nigeria..a difficult question.

Heh.

I like you guys. And no sarcasm is intended here, this type of stuff genuinely warms my heart.

At a minimum, if you are going to post pictures of buildings in Ibadan built in the 40s, then let us also see pictures from your area of buildings from the 1940s..

Eh.

Old cities certainly have parts which will look older than new cities.

I wonder why people always post pictures of places built in the 40s, 50s and earlier rather then say Bodija.

I'd rather follow successful models rather than anti-European models.

The objective is winning the game, not necessarily doing it with an entirely unique, indigenous strategy.

Let's be more pragmatic...take whatever works and use it.

I think the best thing is to just work to see the country split apart.

I'm not sure that working within the Nigerian political system will lead to good results.

The entire thing needs to be destroyed and split into pieces.

He may have suffered in the past, but had been pretty successful as an actor

Interesting

Anything a man can do, a woman can do better.

You will underestimate women and their capacity for corruption at your own peril

[quote author=haka_nai]^^^What ever rocks your world guy!!!! [/quote]I don't have a high opinion of Northern politicians. So why would I be interested in seeing any of them as president?

afam4eva: Not when Seun is sharing money accrueing from ads with Google. Linda Ikeji gets direct advertisement from companies but Seun uses a 3rd party(Google). Though i still think Seun makes more money for now but that may change in the future if Seun does not leverage on the advantage Nairaland has over other Nigerian states due to it's traffic.

Actually, you and the OP might be right. I visited her site just now and am seeing local, directly placed advertisements.

Local advertising might pay more money? I don't know what the figures look like exactly.


Hrm, incidentally, she looks kind of cute:

egift: what a waste of spermatozoa.

lmao

Too bad his mother didn't end up swallowing him

If:

a) seun is getting a lot more traffic than her
b) they both make most of their money from advertising

then it follows that Seun is making more money than her.

Unless for whatever reason her viewers clicked ads more frequently, or her ad rates were somehow higher.

Meh.

If it is Fashola/somebody else, I support the alliance.

If it is northerner/somebody else, I have zero interest.

What is so bad about this?

N2000 is not even $20.

I don't think that introducing a $20 note would be considered revolutionary

lmao

Jonathan Targets 3.5m Jobs from Agric Sector by 2015 (ThisDay, May 1, 2012)

President Goodluck Jonathan has said his administration is targeting about 3.5 million jobs from the agricultural sector by 2015, out of which 1.3 million will be from cassava processing.


lmao

Why not 100 million

Wow. Impressive.

This guy is a muthafuckin boss.

Kudos to him.
