I posted pictures from university of Pretoria in one of their threads when I got tired of seeing them glorify mediocrity.

Please tell them. I like the way you dish it to them. Nigerians likes to glorify mediocrity a lot.

I read where you were arguing with someone about the popularity and development difference between SA and Nigeria.

The Nigeria guy said that more Nigerians have more American and overseas degrees than SA.

Mehn, I closed my eyes in shame. He didn't know the reason why most Nigerians go abroad to study is because of the hopelessness and the ramshackle institutions we have here.

Honestly, sentiments apart, defending Nigeria and Nigerians is one of the most herculean task ever.

Our leaders have failed us. If not for oil, I wonder where would have been.

SenecaTheYonger:
I promise you, the close up view will make you hate Nigeria. I don’t know why their students are neat compared to 9JA student

Nigerian students always looks crude and unkempt. It is a reflection of our larger society. The untidiness and dirt and I don't care attitude of average Nigerian.

A student is supposed to look neat and cultured but we have strong men and niggers here.

Our problems are simply many.

God bless the OP. Our country is one of the most backwards in terms of infrastructure but our stupid youths will be here glorifying ghettos and quack infrastructures.

Visit University of Nairobi, Kenya and Makelele University, Uganda, you will be marvelled.

Our architects are not creative and innovative when it comes to beauty and aesthetics in building.

I bet you, if a Nigerian contractor had built that teaching hospital shown in the picture, he wouldn't bother with the exterior landscape. It would be left like that with the heaps of sand, planks and other things.

Tufiakwa! Let's stop glorifying mediocrity in this country abeg,

Solid infrastructure is always an enabler for economic growth.

Countries with solid infrastructures tends to grow very fast unlike countries with decrepit infrastructures like ours.

All these over rated expatriates. Why was she even hired by Adeshina?

Go to UI and other places and see seasoned development economists that understands the peculiarity of African economies and not these oyibos that are interested in fat pay check.

That was how IMF recommended one of their staff as the chief economic adviser to OBJ during his tenure but he played a fast one on them and appointed Soludo much to the dismay of IMF that he promised to appoint their man after IMF gave Nigerian debt forgiveness.

Make I apply sharply since the closing date for submission of entries is now 8th July, 2020.

Nairaland, make una support your own o. I will ensure trade surplus for Nigeria in all areas of trade.

I will make sure that all our products meets the strictest international standard to ensure acceptance of our farmers and Aba made goods in the international market.

See how him glass shift one side for him face. All these Nigerian corrupt politicians, they hardly look well after eating our money.

The most popular CP then.

This racism thing is becoming over hyped with black celebrities using it for show.

Blacks have killed more blacks in the world than whites.

There are millions of moderate whites that are against racism.
Between a black man and a white man, who would I befriend? of course the white man.

As a Nigerian student in UK in 2009, majority of my friends were whites and those from Latin America.

I had bad experience with my Nigerian brothers and switched allegiance immediately without any sentiment.

AJ, you totally got this one wrong. They gave you a racist speech and you read it the way Nigerian politicians read prepared speeches without knowing the content.

If you have any undeveloped land in Oniru, go and start doing something now or else....


If you have land without proper title in Oniru, go and regularize. If you know, you know

Easy ride for Trump.

Sleepy Joe stands no chance at all.

Michael Bloomberg would have electrified the election campaign

I just finished reading WTO guidelines for nomination of candidates.

Egypt made a valid point o. Though they made the point out of fear that Ngozi may be a difficult candidate compared to theirs.

Why are we good in substituting candidates at the last minute everytime?

This is not INEC, PDP, APC that are known for substituting candidates at the last minute.

If followed to the later, Egypt might use this rule to knock off our candidate.

Widows needs counselling a lot. Most of them associates with the wrong people out of boredom.

See how she left 5 young children to be catered by relatives.

I am sure one of those guys was her boy friend for her to have visited him.

My concern are the innocent kids that have been orphaned.

I always tell people that you cannot compare Nigeria's economy with that of South Africa.

South African companies are far more buoyant and highly capitalized than Nigerian companies.

There was one research that was conducted by Forbes to measure the quality of highly capitalized companies in Africa - that is multibillion dollar companies.

It was found out that Nigeria have just 38 while South Africa have 349 multi billion dollar companies.

The profit of DSTV alone can rival the turnover of any major capitalized company in Nigeria.

Yes, they are heavy and very strong security doors. The owner increased the price for sale to N150,000 and whosoever are buying them will have to buy the 3 doors.

You're free for an inspection as I will be available from Monday -Friday at the site.

How many feet is the door

Develop your capability in Data science and mining.

Get your masters and even up to PHD to stand a better chance of working for development and international NGOs.

perfect your skills in areas of SPSS, Data kit, STAT and other data analysis tools used by international development agencies.

Bro, Statistics is far better than computer science. At least, you can still do some professional computer related courses.

Make sure you are sound and comfortable with numbers otherwise , you would struggle with the course

Good luck!

babalose:
Are they entrance doors? Is the glass toughened to give extra protection

OP, I am interested in the answer to this question.

Nigerians, always glorifying inconsequential things.

Our universities have not been able to solve our societal problems.

Let's focus on what those universities in Nigeria can do and not mere buildings.

So Ned actually fvcked Regina


Like fvcked her without a condom and released inside her with her consent


How was Regina able to look at Ned's face while he was cuming? ....I can imagine that niggas face while he is cuming and that's some horror movie shit

So Money actually made this girl look Ned in the eye and not puke while he was cuming inside her.


Kaiiiiiiiiii


Where Money speaks, Nonsense ceases to exist

Madness dey worry you. I don laugh tire

I pity wild life in Nigeria. For Nigerians, every animal is a fair game.

Watch NATGEO and see how animals lives in their habitat and the attention accorded to them by conservationist.

That feeling of completing and moving into your newhouse is unimaginable.

Only house owners can relate.

I wonder how the world was millions of years ago.

Dinosaurs must have been a very vicious beast years ago.

I saw the remains of the animal in Houston zoo in 2014 and was marvelled at the animals cheer size and its canine.

Sad that the animal went into extinction.

omonnakoda:
Depends on who lives there
If you go to some low cost accommodation in London you would be disgusted. Urine in the lifts needles and syringes in communal areas etc.
We need to stop hating on ourselves

That it is done elsewhere doesn't make it right and acceptable in Nigeria. That same thing happens in a low cost areas of London doesn't justify that we should have total disregard for maintenance in Nigeria.

What I said about our maintenance culture in Nigeria still remains. There is no sentiments here please. Our attitude still remains bad towards order and cleanliness.

See how people, rich and poor, throws things on the road, public buildings defaced and in poor sanitary conditions, citizens dumping refuse at any available space, decrepit houses everywhere as a result of bad maintenance.

OBTMOS:
Come and see the building in two years time

You got it. Nigerians and I don't care attitude = The white paints will turn brown and that pink décor will fall off without any repair

Our maintenance culture in Nigeria is terrible and the citizens are one of the most "I don care attitude" people I have ever seen, especially when the property in question does not belong them.

Rent out your property and see how tenants will mess it up in the next few years.

Probz:
Yes. By saying that Nigerians have to oyibonise even our own foods.

Hhaha, I agreed with you. You look nice in your Igbo traditional wear

Probz:
Get out of here.

Oga Probz, did the guy offend you?

Most of the comments above shows the current state of many homes in Nigeria. Dysfunctional, acrimonious, hatred, pride and vices.

A lot of marriages are going through trying times. May God have mercy and mend all broken homes, strengthen couples who are facing challenges and brings peace to families. Amen

Hmmmm!!!

I don't know why young struggling guys are just too obsessed about girl friends and women. Oga, please focus on your hustle first.

Staying in a single room is an indication that you are yet to find your feet in Lagos. Your major concern should be on how to develop your capabilities and work harder towards a better future and not one inconsequential girl that will later abandon you.

Your scenario is common with company's drivers, office assistants, artisans, security people, dispatch riders, apprentice, cleaners, buying and selling merchandise - Do your profession falls in any of the categories mentioned?

Those kind of people sabi spend on girls that will always abandon them. They will train girls in school who will abandon them for a well to do guys.

Oga, if you are already in a hole, please stop digging further

I don't know why this is happening to this man. He is my kind of guy. Thorough bred professional

But those allegations are weighty o. I no go lie

If found guilty, he should face the law. No sentiments please

Nigerians should learn how to uphold ethics and integrity in the organization they find themselves.

That was how some Nigerians students executive embezzled money during my student's days in UK and kept denying it even when the evidence was so overwhelming.

After the investigation, the massive fraud was uncovered and I had no sympathy for them at all

We should learn how to live above board.

Starting with wall screeding works.......

Oga, can I get the contact of the person that did this window sill/hood for you

I am in Lagos

Indians! Medical tourism is a big business in Indian and they are capitalising on that.

People from Europe and US go to Indian for major invasive surgeries at a fraction of the cost in their home countries.

We should have one thing in Nigeria that attracts tourists.

I was in one part of Nairobi in 2011, mehn, see oyibos, 99% of people I saw there were whites on a visit to nearby safari and Kenyan wildlife.

Kenya earns billions of dollars in tourism, that supports hotel businesses and other jobs.

Nigerians spends millions of dollars in India on medical treatment and Indian earns billions of dollars from others visiting for surgery and other treatments.

WITH REFRENCE TO THE BOLDED.

I do agree with your wife on the bolded.
Visitors should NEVER pass through the kitchen, to access their rooms.
I understand that you have 'old age' in mind but please, consider your immediate safety and security first and foremost.
It is someone who is alive TODAY, that can plan for TOMORROW or old Age.
There are places visitors should never have access to in one's house:
Your Master-Bedroom and Your Kitchen because those two places are your weakest point, either for what is most personal to you (documents, monetary valuables, even your wife! ) and where you make your food.

Not all Visitors will have good intentions for you and if they have to walk through the Kitchen to access their room, you have given them the right to "drop some poison" in your family food!
As a matter of fact, Visitors are never allowed in the Kitchen, if they want food, you prepare and give them (except where they have a self-contained area).
Remember, the most difficult ailement to cure is that caused by the food we put into our own mouth.
God forbid if one of those "na my family Village people" come to visit their son who just arrived from America and they see where you are living and one of them is like: His father did x,y,z to me in 1913 and decides its time for payback! E don red be that.
I am speaking from 'non-personal' experience.

Please, quikly re-arrange the entrance to the visitors room so it does not pass through the kitchen, when the time comes, you can open it up again to link the kitchen, it wont cost you much money or effort but righ tnow, it is not a priority, at least not over your family's safety.

Well done.

I am not changing it at all. It is just a passage at the far end of kitchen. I could have demarcated it but I so much love open- plan buildings without the too much block works we do here in Nigeria.

If you are going or coming out to/from the visitors room, the person in the kitchen will see you. So, it is not that you must pass through the kitchen. Just that another spiral step to upstairs separates the kitchen from that passage.

Visitor here means, close relatives and not just random persons. I don't host non family members. Go to a nearby hotel and stay.

I pray our leaders read what they sign.

Trump signs his documents and twits all his twitts. I wonder the function of his PA, SA and other media and personal assistants.
