Buhari seems sympathetic to Rochas - Left to him, he would tell the crowd to vote for Rochas's candidate, Uche Nwosu.

Buhari, through history, hardly turns his back on his avow supporter. Whether the supporter is misbehaving, Buhari will keep defending the person.

His heart seems to still be with Rochas for all the support the man gave him in the South East when Rochas was undisputedly, the mouth piece of Buhari in the South East.

Rochas was flying with Buhari in presidential jet up and down and seems to enjoy the comfort and confidence of Mr. President before Oshimole came and scattered the whole thing.

My people, there is nothing wrong with 9-5 or 8-4 jobs. People have left their well paying jobs to dabble into their so called passion and got burnt big time.

Nigeria business climate could be so unforgiving when it comes to starting business. A lot of huddles to cross. Those without adequate capital and support base will regret it. I have seen it all, though I have not experienced it myself but from people's experience.

If you are working in a decent company and you are happy, please maintain yourself there. If the passion to start something becomes too much, set it up as a side hustle. When the side hustle starts earning income equivalent to your monthly salary or cover your basic monthly expenditures with some disposal income left, then you could decide to quite or better still run both concurrently.

I REPEAT AND I REPEAT AGAIN!!, Do not QUIT your job till your side hustle starts earning substantial income.

You have 2.1. Source for scholarship overseas. Honestly, the chances of you getting employed in this discipline in Nigeria is remote. The country is not developed and the productive capacity of Nigeria is seriously hindered.

If you finish this type of course overseas, you will be in hot demand. There are bodies dedicated to environmental sustainability, multibillion dollar companies, government and united nations agencies, research institutions and agric sectors that could absorb you. But certainly, not in Nigeria.

The course is also within the STEM categories and there would be organizations committed to funding your research.

Aim towards furthering your studies abroad if you could afford it.

Which government agency updates their websites? Even CBN still carry stale information in their website talk more of less fancied agency like supreme court.

I doubt if anybody is managing their website likewise all other agencies.

kai Kai Kai, Nigeriya!! joblessness everywhere. Honestly, what all these crowd things tells me is that the rate of unemployment have reached an elevated level.

Government needs to engage our youths!!

Keep the boy corpse well before Oduduwa children finish work for e body

You just need deliverance of mind, soul and body. This is all you could say after reading this!! I pity your type.

Corrinthians:
I've seen the photo, what I can't find it the "love-up" in it.

Bloggers ehn.

Anyway, let me and my guy enjoy our dues paid by diligent ipob members. This is what every well meaning Igbo man should be doing on February 16th!

No election in biafraland.

Be deceiving yourself!! See how your savior is enjoying his self with his wife and children abroad and his followers are here dying of hunger and in prison suffering.

Mental emancipation and freedom remains the best emancipation of any human being.

BeardedTraveler:
Lol, her lecturer also did her dirt.

I have come to a conclusion in my mind that Nigerian lecturers are one of the most wicked set of people you can ever come across. Wicked, inconsiderate set of sadists.

Very bunch of inconsiderate and unintelligent fellows. Yet they will be forming over sabi. If you happen to school abroad, you will hate Nigerian lecturers. In Uk, if you see how renowned Professors and scholars relates with their students in terms of academics, you will know that Nigerian Lecturers are just sadists.

Always playing god and forming super intelligent yet have nothing to offer.

This their apron. I was meant to understand that the apron wards off devil and brings prosperity. Let a member confirm that to me.

Members sometimes behave somehow. No hating please

Corrinthians:
Kai. This is capable of sending one into an emergency room in a hospital.

My sympathies to the victim.

Totally correct - I witnessed it first hand in Amuwo Odofine. The old man on getting there just collapsed and they rushed him to Isolo General Hospital. He pee inside the sienna that carried him to the general hospital.

I don't wish this to my worst enemy. To build house in this country is not a joke talk more after building with all the stress and hustle, the building is demolished.

Nawao, but the man greedy sha - see the massive compound he acquired from his village people to build the mansion.

My concern is not even the car and the spoon-fed Cuppy but the beautiful interlocking and well paved work and drive way.

Oyibo and finishing!. Attention to details in artisan works is always topnotch. Give Sheriff or Kazeem interlocking job to do, he would do rubbish. The company that molded the interlocking will pack sand full every where.

By one month, one side of the interlocking will go down while the other side will be up. After three month, weeds and unwanted grasses will take over the whole place.

our standards are simply too low in this country. " Leave am like that mentality" is killing detailing in artistic works.

No amount of money or effort is too big when life is the subject matter. I just hope the child is still alive.

In a civilized world and not in any shithole country

One thing I could deduced from all these "crowd" thing is that unemployment in this country have reached a record level. Believe me, 90% of these people that attend all these rallies have nothing meaningful doing at the time.

God help our youths!

Octaves:
Labour should fight this nonsense. How can you put an age limit of 24 years for people with Bsc and NYSC. This is an injustice that must be fought. What is the minister of labour doing about this

You people should continue hating on those attending private universities, calling them all sorts of names. Average age of graduation in private university is 21 and some graduate at 20.

Go to entry level recruitment of top consulting firms, multinationals and banks, greater numbers are from private universities and the rest from universities abroad. I tell you from experience.

I sorry for products of Nigerian public universities. The world have left you behind.

Honestly, my country Nigeria is a sinking Shithole. You hardly see very beautiful vacation spots. When you travel abroad, you will be wondering the kind of leadership we have in Nigeria.

Go to Southern Africa countries of Botswana, Zimbabwe and Namibia. You will be marveled at the beauty and development that has taken place there to attract tourists even though those countries are classified as very poor. The basic things like descent environment and proper infrastructure are there and well taken care of by government.

Every rich Nigerian travels abroad and snap pictures of beautiful places and come back to the ghetto and continue his or her hustling.

Nigeria, a country where money is made and not to be spent!

In once instance, in 2011, there was a gala dinner at the Lowry Hotel in Manchester for the SSF and the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital.

The £150-a-head black-tie event raised almost £11,500, but Mr Christopher said "not a penny" went to the hospital.

Judge Michael Topolski QC told the defendants: "You have brought shame upon yourselves and your family."

He said "at least £63,000 can been shown to have been received by the fund", and added that this did not include cash donations.

The defendants "went out of their way" to ensure that proper records were not kept, he said.

Any good works done in the past would be "forever tainted by their dishonest and disreputable conduct", he added.


I always like the way British reporters report news and how their lawyers analyses criminal activities.

Nawao, loan from Juventus to AC Milan and now loan from AC Milan to Chelsea. Before the season end, it would be loan from Chelsea to Fulham.

Being sent on loan shows that you are surplus to requirement. Sarri should have looked at Argentine or Brazilian league. There are sharp and deadly strikers there than this aging Higuan

Poor decision from Sarri. In Chelsea now, anything other than Morata is acceptable.

Tinalex:
Me likey, but a suit in this hot weather? A simple T shirt, pant and face cap would have been okay. But ehhh....its is body sha

The guy thought he was going for showbiz event. Still dey do celebrity things . He doesn't know that those things do not impress the real voters, the street people.

Real voters are the street people and not social media users.

E go shock am sha.

kingemzy5:
Afonja where are your people

Very STUPID comment!! Go and face your own hustle! Ethnic BIGOT

Seun, please work toward these tribal insults and hatred on Naira land. It is becoming annoying.

The pictures at that Trump Tower are confusing. It looks as if US secret and homeland security came to arrest the man and people were resisting the arrest. I am not sure but lets wait if he comes back.

Please I am not a Zombie neither am I a wailer - Nobody should attack me.

To sum it up.. It is still on overpopulation issue

It is still not overpopulation. I hope you understood what population demographic structure is? As someone earlier pointed out in the thread, they do not want their future children to grow up with migrants or your own children. Czech can comfortably cater for all these Nigerians and other migrants. But the fact that they do not share the same culture, race and origin with the Czech makes it even worse.

There are a lot of Europeans living in Czech but they are not concerned since those people are Europeans and have similarity with them. It all boils down to race and racism. You may like a person, not that the person is exceptional or intelligent but because both of you share certain characteristics in common.

Likewise, you may not like a person even though the person may be the smartest and good but you people do not share things and certain characteristics. You will always feel happy and contented with the person you share certain characteristics. RACISM & NEPOTISM

greenprince:
Totally correct!
And unfortunately people fail to understand and keep seeing people like Orban like an anti-christ. He's a shrewd politician yes, but I don't think he's a bad person.

I'm African but I buy his idea and that of Putin. If I was in their shoes, I'd most likely do same.

Let almighty Saudi, Kuwait, Brunei and Qatar that are filthy rich, open their borders at least to their Muslim brothers from third world and conflict ridden countries.

Saudi and other rich Gulf states are Arabs and they know what Arabs are capable of doing. They will never allow even their moslem ummah to come in because of violence and terrorists- related activated. Those migrants have turned to Liberal Europeans for help. Yet the same people that are seeking help are also constituting nuisance to their host nations.

I have lived in Europe and I tell you that the rate of decline in their population is alarming. The far -right party in German called Alternative for Germany, is already afraid that in the next 10 years, the one million Syrian refugees allowed into the country will triple in size because of high birth rate among the Arabs. The high birth rates coming from those refugees have economic importance to the refugees as the host nation pays the woman that gives birth something of EUR800 and in Canada it is about CAD650 every month till the child get to like 5 or 8 years.

So, most migrants including Nigerians, have the tendencies to give birth at will to get State's patronage and support but some far right and conservative elements in Europe are now against their continued stay in their country which is fueling populist support in Europe.

fatymore:
They don't want their country to be overpopulated.

It is not about population, it is about demographic change. Czech have a very small population but wants to maintain their cherished identity.

countries like Hungary, Poland, Norway and even Austria are doing the same. Victor Orban of Hungary has been at loggerheads with EU over migrants quotas allocated to his country. He made it clear that he wants to maintain the Christian identity of his country and Europe at large. That is why he has refused to take asylum seekers from Syria

Africans and Arabs are known to breed and born children in large numbers and they fear that the trend if not check will cause demographic disruptions in future since their own populations are declining.

Why do people think that Nigeria would still develop? For me, not possible. Leadership is a product of the greater environment. Look at the decrepit building called a faculty building in a University.

People that rules countries are product of their respective institutions and value system of the environment. When people condemn our police force and other security agencies and government officials, i laugh. They are a product of systems that were not meant to work.

Products from this kind of University will be more toxic to their immediate environment than being good. Our leaders have killed us.

As i always said, descent environment have a correlation with quality of learning.

I weep for my country.

Andywinnie:

Andywinnie, We have Mgbuka both in Nkpor and Obosi. Mgbuka means were cars are broken down into useful components - There is one in Obosi.

You have the opportunity of studying in a very descent environment.

You have opportunities of enjoying your course and equip you for the oil job you have been dreaming about.

You interact with lecturers willing to teach unlike the sadists in public universities.

You graduate in record time to qualify for entry level aptitude tests in multinationals and top consulting firms.

Please, leave and go to ABUO . . Don't think twice. Thank Daddy for the idea.

ExpertNLer:
wow so they did not know about the scholarship before?

You think na every graduate de sabi all these things . You will be shocked that greater percentage of graduates are not even aware or heard about PTDF before.

Daud1016:
portal opened again just someone registered.

I just got two people to register now to apply for the M.Sc. - Both first class still looking for job. The portal is open

Zangazanga:
Focusmind pls I sent you a private mail here on nairaland.

I responded -

AKB1:
Thanks so much, good areas. I applied for MSC and I mentioned some of the terms you suggested, including investment and taxation. Overall, I was not too specific as a PhD proposal would normally look like. What do you think pls? Do I have chances of making it to the MSC interview?

Since you are for M.Sc., you are competing with people from your state - sharpen your communication skills and talk well if given the opportunity. Most of the panelists at the interview may be from Engineering background and will struggle to understand your research and statement of purpose coming from none engineering background.

Being an M.Sc. candidate, explain your statement of purpose very well and situate it to the oil and gas industry.

The competition is fierce and you are competing with people from your own state. Hope for the best as I cant say much as I don't know what the interviewers will be asking. Go through the thread for comments made by people here.
