Education › Re: Pictures Of One Of The Schools Tinubu Built In 2001 by elasticlala: 3:47pm On Jun 26, 2022
Assetinvestor:
No wonder why Atiku supporters have totally destroyed the ambition of Tinubu and made him unsellable. Most of tinubu supporters are senseless and extremely dull.

You're comparing schools Peter Obi built as a private citizen in 2019 to schools Tinubu built as the governor of the richest state in Nigeria? Where is your sensehuh

Meanwhile, here is how to play propaganda and fight for Tinubu and not this childish tantrums you're doing. Link is below:

That their very shallow mindset is the reason Nigeria can’t ever come out of its mess. Too many people who do not just think but think far in the wrong direction
Health › Re: Just Got Someone Pregnant... Advise Needed by elasticlala: 12:22pm On Jun 09, 2022
Some people here who are advising you to keep the baby know deep down in their hearts, if they were in your shoe, they wouldn’t keep it.
I just have some few things to say & a question to ask u based on what you have written up there…

1. What becomes of that girl if in the end, she keeps the baby and u on the other hand goes for someone else later in life and abandon the one that had a child for u? Probably at that time, she must have long dropped out of school and disown by her parents …..

Do u think if she knows both of u might not end up together, she would ever consider keeping the child ?

I’m asking this because from the look of things, u really don’t have any idea of the long term effects of any of the options before u…
The girl on the other hand doesn’t have up to 2% of what is before her. If she knows, she probably would have aborted it long before telling u she was pregnant so so so time … The truth about life is beyond what they tell u on social media platforms.

Let me tell u a short story…
My first girlfriend was one of the daughters of a top redeem pastors in Lagos …she was brilliant and got admitted into the University early . She was 19 while I was 26….don’t try to think I got her pregnant �… she was t pregnant. Her immediate elder sister who came for pre-degree in those days got pregnant for a 300L law student who said he doesn’t want any child …not even in the next 8yrs from that time… but this girl was so obsessed with the guy and decided she won’t abort it even if he forsakes her … the guy actually stopped conversing with her and she didn’t care. She decided to not tell her parents about the pregnancy so that by the time they would get to know, it would not be possible for them to consider abortion again….. Of course it was easy for her because she didn’t go home for a long time. To cut the long story short, she later decided to go home after about 4 months…. Immediately the father saw her that she was pregnant, he didn’t even wait for the mum to return. He immediate took her in the car to a hospital in lagos, that was owned by one of his friends, and removed the 4 months old baby….Baba didn’t even bother asking her who, how, when and why it happened… The pastor removed the child straight away…. I was shocked. Till today, I will never forget that incidence…

For your situation, consider several things before u decide on what to do…. I wish u the best in whatever u do.

They should stop using the word, “unknown assailants”. The pattern of cuts inflicted on the victims and the positions match that Fulani jihadist. Compare with the ones in Benue, Kaduna, Jos, et al.

So, it’s only when the victims die that the abductors get death penalty? And the person who pays ransom get 15yrs jail term? What is now the difference between doing good and doing evil in terms of judgement in the sight of this government ? Do they really think at all? Why should a federal government be having soft spot for a group of miscreants who have inflicted series of pain and hardship in the lives of innocent citizens ? Nonsense!

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: How Do I Prove To My Employer That I Am A Graduate? by elasticlala: 11:02pm On Apr 02, 2022
Wait. Didn’t u submit your CV with all necessary credentials when you applied for the job? Or how could you have been given an offer without even a notification of result? Just wondering the kind of job that you are referring to. Anyway, employers would usually request that you at least, present a notification of result as a fresh graduate before you could be given an offer… they also need it for documentation purpose, especially during audit exercise.
Christianity Etc › Re: God Hates Divorce But What Do You Do When One Party Walks Out Of A Marriage? by elasticlala:
Leave those people that just read only one portion of the Bible and start shouting God hates this and that bla bla bla…. as if that is the only thing that God hates. Most people that do not divorce do much more things that God hates and they are there shouting ‘upandan’. If a man or woman has gone to marry another person, the partner is automatically free to remarry because the former had already bridged the edge of sexual default. In the other situation, if an ‘unbelieving wife’ chooses to leave, the husband is also free… I rest my case. Don’t allow any religious fanatics to threaten u with God’s this and that… they aren’t God.

I decided to go and pluck cashew , and I saw this Bush Rat under the cashew tree, it was still breathing when I saw it, I had to use a long stick to smash the head.
That animal is not usually active during the day because of its vision. It must have been bitten by a snake in its hole…that was why it became weak. On a norm, u can’t set your eyes on that stuff twice before it zooms off. Don’t eat it…

Northernblood5:

Yes. they don't even know that Putin doesn't mean well for them. Putin's selfish mind is this "If we don't get it, then everyone will sink " Africans don't know that if that Maniac releases those Nuclear weapons which many will be shot down in the sky, when wind blows, it carries it and when rain falls, it brings it. At the end of the day, life will become unlivable for the living.

That is the Maniac idiots are supporting due to Religion
Don’t mind those fools ranting Putin Putin Putin… they won’t for once read about modern TNT bombs and their impacts. They really don’t know how TNT bombs work and the scope of their impacts on humans and on the planet. If only they have a glimpse of what they are talking about, they would rather pray it doesn’t happen than support one idiot trying to initiate its use.
NYSC › Re: How The Nysc Orientation Camp Has Been Turned To A Business Hub By The Goverment by elasticlala: 10:16am On Mar 10, 2022
SalisuJasper:
I am currently in plateau state nysc orientation camp and with what i have seen so far, the government needs to do better as the 21days in camp can actually put you into depression if you are not bouyant in cash.

The officials have turned the place to a living hell and they find a means in all ways to extort student instead of making life very easy.

i will be pointing out some point thats need to be checked.

They disconnect all the socket in the camp and corp members are being forced to charge at the mami market.

Power bank goes for 100 naira and phones goes for 70 naira. You will have to charge everyday and lets say 200 naira per day for 21days thats total of 4,200.

using of the POS machine for cash withdrawal.

They do not charge the normal fee they do outside the camp.

To collect 1k is 100 naira and anything above that is 200 naira, 8k is 250 and 10k is 300.

Just imagine all this.

Most times we will have to buy water in the morning for 50 naira, when there will be no water in the tank to bath.

I thought the government make provisions for all this and i wonder why the officials are milking the people dry thru the maami market.
.

It a common thing with northern states. It was like that in Sokoto about 11 years ago when I served.

Philipmems:
It's unfortunate hypocrites like you that hide behind religion is so myopic that you can't see beyond your nose. Silicone valley is the home of technology, Elon musk and his peers has revolutionized space technology, if you are dumb enough to think that Russia not collaborating with the US for their rocket engine technology has any effect on the US, then you are clearly not a critical thinker as I expect from fake religious fanatics.
With your commitment to religion and all the pastors and churches in Nigeria, can you explain to the world why Nigeria is not flowing with milk and honey as promised for God's people in the Bible?
U could also have been able to make all of these points without any insult to the man. Still try to respect people especially when they air their views without insult to anybody. When u see some of these people you insult behind your keyboards in real life, u would bow in respect to them no matter what they say.

OP,
First of all, you do not deserve the PhD.
Who seeks advice about moving to a country yet leaving out vital information such as the name of the country in question?.
My sincere advice to you is : Return the PhD certificate, open a business center where you will offer computer training to jambites.
Thank u. Come and collect the certificate from me ooo… u hear ?
How old are u by the way ? U really think crucial decisions in life are based only on what you see or hear? Have u ever heard of the saying “” in the multitude of counselors, there is safety” ?

You don't need a PhD in linguistics to write good grammar.
No doubt about that. However, writing good English is not a measure of one’s intelligence, it only shows how well u understand the language. After all, pass marks range from 45 to 100. If they ask u to write a one-page discussion on a topic now, I’m sure one would find some grammatical errors there.

Even the dumbest person in the whole of planet earth knows that the 1000 USD job is the best job for you to choose! The kind of questions some nairalanders ask ehn is very annoying. And lastly i believed you paid your way through your phd programe because so ssce holders write better than this, even though your phd is on computer science, thats still no excuse
Seriously? Paid way through PhD obtained from the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University? A PhD research supervised by two Professors and defended before 7 Professors ? U are really not saying anything sensible here. … I don’t want to say more pls. Read the post and if u couldn’t understand what I wrote up there, simply ignore and keep mute.

Career › Should I Go Or Should I Stay ? by elasticlala(op): 11:14am On Feb 25, 2022
Please I need your candid advise on this issue. I have never been this confused on what to do. I have been working for some years as an Assistant lecturer in a Private University with a gross pay of 113k per month. I completed my PhD last year and got 3 other offers in Nigeria, the highest was of 177k per month as L2. I had already filled the agreement form to resume there by March 1st, which is just about 4 days from now. Just as I was about moving out my thing yesterday from my current place of work to the new place, I got an offer from another African country to resume 15th of March for a Government Academic job of a monthly salary of 1000 USD which comes with a monthly accommodation allowance of 100 USD and nothing more.

I am lost in the pool of consideration & don’t even know which would be the best for me in my career.

NB: pls don’t mind my grammar o; my PhD is in Computer Science and not in Linguistics and languages.

Thank you in anticipation

There are too many things that could kill a human being in that OAU. For the 8yrs I spent there, there are some paths I dare not cross, some areas I do not go and some things I do not ever go close to; eg streetlights and flaps placed on top of deep gutters as footpath…. God forbid.

RIP young beauty.

Realhommie:
You Should have known that the pregnancy she aborted without telling you most likely wasn't yours, else no reasonable wife will tow that part.

Secondly, from your narrative, obviously she doesn't have respect for you. Also an aggressive partner is a no no.

I'll suggest you send her away for sometime, to see if she'll realize and then have a Change of attitude towards you and your marriage. You guys need to be separated for the time being.

Finally, it seems you're too calm or should i use the word docile. That's why she's preying on you. You would need to be firm and decisive if you want control over your marriage.

Best wishes.
There are things the op didn’t say…that’s where the truth lies. U are married for two years, no mention of any child in the narrative, and your wife suddenly aborted pregnancy without telling you & your concern is her current behavior and not even that a child was aborted after two years of marriage … what exactly was the marriage for ? Business partners or? The man need to tell us some other truth before one can give meaningful suggestions

I've been dating my girlfriend for about 3 years now and she has been a good woman through and through. I've met her parents and we're discussing on the next step. She has been supportive, responsible and caring despite our tribal difference.

However, the problem I'm having with her is that when she's angry she tends to use foul languages and curses on me which I don't like. She end up apologizing after the ranting but I'm tired of going over this. Please how can I deal with this attitude of hers?

I need honest contributions to this thread.
