Man WTF?

A sex scandal too?

Soliciting for sex from hotel employee?

An absolute embarrassment.

WTF is wrong with these people. Acting like animals

OK. Would be nice to know for sure. Wish this report was actually publicly available

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=791423.msg9438963#msg9438963 date=1319829793]nice looking Nigerian website.

looks more legit than Nigeria's official website, TBH[/quote]Nice website indeed. Ogun's is a bit pathetic though. Worst in the SW right now

[quote author=Akanbi_edu link=topic=791071.msg9439177#msg9439177 date=1319832118]Our people are too emotional about these things. THE STATE DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH RESOURCES TO SEND EVERY WILLING INDIVIDUAL TO UNIVERSITY, a qualitative one at that.[/quote]There is no state even in frikkin America that can afford that. Not to talk of Lagos.

State schools in the US, many of them use out of state students/dumb students paying full price to subsidize costs. There is no way on earth their budget will allow everyone to go to university for basically free.

It doesn't make sense to demand free or heavily subsidized university. It isn't part of the minimum basket of goods a society owes to its members. Primary and secondary, yes. University, no. Uni just costs too much damn money

Office of the presidency is different from the present occupant (GEJ.)

Anyway, if you are so concerned about that office being disrespected, then your first person to squabble with should be GEJ himself. Or was that recent Australia fiasco not a huge international disgrace to the office of the president of the federal republic of Nigeria?

Let us not major in minor, abeg

Her face is kind of wor wor, but her body is banging

And that matters more to me, personally

I see. Did you buy the laptop new?

Cost differential isn't as bad as I thought, only 2X.

How much did you spend on that? Probably 3X or 3.5X what I spent on my HP.

I was thinking about getting an Apple. But they charge too damn much for their hardware specs

And while I like their OS, dual-booting Ubuntu + Windows will give me everything I really need.

To get the same specs from Apple would be like $2k+

Pro Anti:
Mr ekt_bear,

Forget the arguments,
It is inappropriate to disrespect the office of the president.

We shall agree to disagree.

Anyway, technically the office wasn't disrespected. Instead, the current occupant was (well, of the vice-presidency.) Two distinct entities, mind you.

wonderful

Damn straight

And it is a badge of honor

When did Sambo or GEJ become Aregbesola's father?

The analogy fails. This is a federation, not an autocracy or centralized government.

Aregbe is not Sambo or GEJ's sidekick.

Sambo is not Aregbe's oga, had nothing to do with him gaining office. Aregbe's "oga" is the people of Osun State.

Respect is a two way street.

If you don't give it, then don't expect it back.

[quote author=Rhino.5dm link=topic=791041.msg9434055#msg9434055 date=1319782464]^ But thats the "raw" truth. How do expect them to qualify a group of worthless looking moorons, led by a clownish confused dunce, with blinks and tattoo all over them? I mean, that meeting was suppose to be a decent round table meeting, where people discuss ideas and profer solutions to problems and not thug nation or "district 9"(gathering of corrupt blood sucking imbe-ciles with more than 120 contingents)

Certainly, not messionaries.[/quote]I am not excusing GEJ's actions. No sane person would defend it (notice that even an insane sycophant like Beaf dares not.)

Just don't like this particular reporter's tone. Maybe I'm reading an undercurrent that isn't there.

Jungle justice. Worse, done by the police, who in theory represent law and order.

Life is cheap in Nigeria, but justice costly

Hell, if it craps out after a year, I won't be the only one b1tching at them.

Everyone else will too. And they'll get bad PR.

It isn't as if I bought a laptop from a company with a reputation for making shoddy products. HP is a good brand name.

Yeah this computer runs super-cool and super-quiet.

If it craps out in a year's time, I'll harass HP until they replace it.

Yesterday, at a rehearsal for this morning's official opening of the summit, Mathieson leapt into the role of sound system roadie for Gillard, blowing into the official microphone and mouthing the ritual ''one, two, one, two''. The microphone wasn't on. Perhaps somebody should have called Goodluck Jonathan and the Homeboys.

Err, damn

This journalist seems very unprofessional. And dare I say. . .well, let me not say it.

Lmao.

We shall see.

Link me to the model you'd have suggested getting?

BTW it runs pretty cool for now.

If it craps out within a year I'll get HP to replace it. 1 year warranty.

Whoever your boss is must have a helluva time managing you, heh.

How many times must he explain something to you before you get it? How many hours a week does he have to waste leading you away from the idle paths your brain seems to follow after misunderstanding simple statements he gives you?

I'm surprised you haven't been canned yet.

How about you read instead, crack fiend?

I am sober.

Have you been sniffing crack?

You seem to have answered your own question.

Jakumo:
A ten-fold increase equates with a 1000% price rise, and not a 100%, which translates to a mere doubling of the original figure.  If this price increase is necessary for the running of the university, provision for scholarship awards to brilliant but economically underprivileged students MUST be made by Nigeria's future president Fashola.

LASU already has this in place. Get a 4.0 out of 5.0 (or higher) and not only do you pay no tuition, but you are given a stipend.

too many people

What metric does this study use? Like, what does "unhealthy" mean, in terms of #s?
