PoliticsRe: PDP Caught Spreading Propaganda With Fake Pictures by Focusmind: 10:49am On Nov 24, 2018
Nigerian youths! They will soon start insulting themselves on what the political class did. It still baffles me why the youths keep fighting themselves because of deception of the political class. People that care less of them and are not even aware of their existence will come online to start bashing themselves, religion and tribe of their 'opponents'. At the end, some will be sending you private mail asking for N10K to save them from hunger and will still come online to fight over the politician.
PoliticsRe: Next Level Logo: Rex Institute Vows To Sue Buhari, APC For "Stealing" Logo by Focusmind: 7:18pm On Nov 22, 2018
I don't know why Rex Institute is threatening the president and APC. Was the logo patented, registered and copyrighted? If not, anybody could come up with something like that or even use the same logo. It is only when you register a logo or copyright it that you claim infringement if used by someone else.

That is why you see some names, logos or brand with these signs " ™®©", showing that it is exclusive and have been registered and should not be used by anybody without express approval from the original owner.

If I call somebody to design a business logo that I am using today and someone decides to use the same logo tomorrow, the law does not stop him from using the same logo. If you are using a logo that is not registered or patented, you cant claim exclusive right in the court of law for that logo.

shiffynaani:
THE QUESTION IS: WHY DID YOU RETURN BACK BRO?
I am a career minded person. That category of job would not help me in future. I struggled to get a professional jobs in my area of specialisations in UK but the conservative government of David Cameron was making things extremely difficult for foreign students.

A financial institutions in Nigeria came for the yearly "careers in Africa " summit in London and I was hired. The entry pay was lower than my monthly gross in the care home I was working . But when you considered that I was going to be working in my cherished area and the Potential for growth, I took the offer and I thank God I did.

Stayed with them for six years, gained valuable experience and joined an oil and gas company.

Have built my own house in Nigeria and about even resigning to set up my own independent business consulting firm.

Had my kids abroad with citizenship so that they don't experience what I saw in UK based on nationality when you get to the final stage of interview. They always asked me if I had the permanent right to work in UK. Once I said no , they won't get back to me.

But some Nigerians with British nationality that I did interviews with got offers.

Honestly, Cameron government dealt with us. Bared companies from hiring none UK /EU professionals

BusinessRe: How Old Were You When You Made Your First Million?, And How? by Focusmind: 3:55pm On Nov 18, 2018
I made my first million in 2009 as PTDF scholar in UK. I was being paid £500 every month by PTDF plus the initial £2000 given to me before departure. Not millions in pounds but when I converted as I was transferring my earnings to my Nigeria bank account

I practically didn't touch the money as I was also working as a cleaner in a hospital, earning £6 per hour. I worked 4 hours a day and unlimited hours during summer. So, I had sufficient money to cater for my needs.

I also did a care giver job at old people's home, cleaning their poo and bathing them at a rate of £8.5 per hour and was fed with all sorts of foods , cakes ice-cream, fruits and juices. I saved quite a lot before returning back to my beloved Naija
TravelRe: Canada Rejects 70.7% Of Nigerian Asylum Seekers Who Crossed Borders by Focusmind: 5:17pm On Nov 17, 2018
Nigerians, very desperate set of people. Always bastardizing opportunities. I blame the Canadian prime minister that said that refugees are welcome and is even paying them 650 dollars pay month for each child.

Some that were lucky to enter start making babies immediately to increase their allowance from government.
TravelRe: Caterpillar Accident Hits Agulu, Anambra State - Pictures by Focusmind: 4:59pm On Nov 17, 2018
Anambra seems to have good tarred roads going by Nigerian standard. Anytime the state is shown even if it is a village, the roads are tarred with street lights.

Whether it is working or not is another thing.
PetsRe: California Wildfire: Abandoned Hospital For Stranded Animals (Pic) by Focusmind: 4:22pm On Nov 16, 2018
Oyibos are correct when they call Africa and other developing countries as "emerging" economies or country.

The emphasis is on the word, "EMERGING". The meaning is that we are still undergoing human development. We are still not behaving the way the normal human should behave.

Our economy is still not matured the way it should be.

This can never happen in Nigeria or any shithole country
TravelRe: When Will The Zenith Light Come On? by Focusmind: 11:08am On Nov 15, 2018
City in darkness. Lack of electricity is seriously affecting the aesthetics and beauty of Lagos. That has even made Christmas decorations to look unattractive and local since it is only the decoration that glows and shows light while the surroundings are in total darkness.

you will hawkers and backwards people snapping in front of the decorations and posting online with total darkness at the background.
Christianity EtcRe: Is Catholic Church Of The Transfiguration Most Beautiful Church In Nigeria? by Focusmind: 4:44am On Nov 14, 2018
Why do we spend fortune in building places of worship why many are poor?

Go to Europe and see simple ancient stone cathedrals with beautiful interiors that costs just a fraction of this edifice and well maintained

Why can't we do simple things instead of gigantic buildings just to claim the biggest.

The church in my university town in Scotland is a stone cathedral with artistic in nature and natural yet very aesthetic in appearance.

Nigerian should learn to be modest inn things of ostentation.
BusinessRe: MTN To Acquire Banking Licence In Nigeria, Says CEO by Focusmind: 4:33am On Nov 14, 2018
Nigerians and low IQ. They have already turned this to political insults. Note that this will not result to any significant investment by MTN as they already have the infrastructure which the banks are currently using.

They just want to have their own branded banking payment system and rely or partner with any existing commercial bank.

Note also that they are not acquiring any commercial license as some uneducated nairaland peeps had assumed and have started praising the government even when they're still looking for jobs.

Ojukwu!! I don't understand this man with Reverend Sisters. Throughout the war, his cooks were Irish Reverend Sisters not even Igbos. He was not even eating his wife's food. Throughout his stay in exile in Cote D'Voire, Reverend sisters were the ones cooking his food.

See his wedding with reverend sisters.

They will be like 'go back to your region' cos we will not 'accommodate you again'
Stupid lady - is that all you could come up with? Ethnic bigots everywhere. Do you think that the man knows who you are or even your existence? We should stop all these ethnic insults. It makes sick and fear for the future of this country.

The annoying thing is that ethnic insults is common with the low and jobless people in the society. The rich lives above these petty things. Watch out the caliber of people he will invite. People of his class and not his ethnic people.

Foolish girl.
If she wants to celebrate her mother she should bring home a husband.

The best gift any daughter can give her mom is a grandchild.

Not a house gift that is even the direct proceeds of
her sexual iniquities.
You didn't read well before commenting. Check the first statement she made. That her mother will be too emotional when the next gift comes. That's certainly her wedding or bringing home her man

CelebritiesRe: Khloe Calls Out U.S, U.K And Canadian Embassies Over Visa Denial by Focusmind: 11:08am On Nov 08, 2018
Honestly, I don't understand this embassy with " letter from where you work and your pay slip". Must everybody be an employee? I have seen severally people that are running their businesses denied visa even when those people are doing very well.

They always prefer working class. Once you mention that you have your own company, that you don't work for anybody, they will just deny you instantly.

I always advise business owners to see themselves as employee of their respective businesses with letter headed paper and pay themselves a steady monthly salary through the company bank account. If they ask for documents from the company, kukuma use your letter headed paper, signed by your brother or wife as human resource manager and print your pay slip with the letter headed paper of your company.

Don't go there and brag that you are the founder/owner of one God forsaken one - man business, Bro, na automatic denial except if the visa office de feel you.
EducationRe: See The Sorry State Of This Primary School In Zamfara: Photos by Focusmind: 10:24am On Nov 07, 2018
If this did not cause you any remorse, you definitely don't have a human feelings. I just imagine seeing my lovely daughter in this decrepit building as her school. What kind of human beings do we expect to be churned out from this type of settings.

You see, you cannot sow pepper and expect to harvest apple. It is not possible. The society is as good as the product of their institutions and environment.

Believe me, the cost of painting this building and putting a corrugated roofing sheet over that building is far less than what it would cost a government official to change the four tires of his Lexus SUV. But they will never do it. This is where the poor trains their children.

In future some of the products of these type of system would turn against the society to take their revenge!!

Have you ever wondered where the Suya sellers keep their remaining sales after each night? The very day I saw where one of the mallams kept his after night Suya, I stop buying Suya. I only buy Suya from Abokis that sells in a hotel or some other eateries environment.

I have totally stopped buying from road side Suya sellers.
