He looked lean and may be suffering from one undisclosed illness. People like that should not be exposed to exhaustion or strenuous activity where they could be faced with harsh weather elements.

Rip seminarian.

SportsRe: How Much Do You Pay At The Viewing Centre In Your Area? by Focusmind: 1:44pm On Apr 16, 2022
Mine don't charge me anything. It is not a viewing center but a hang out joint. I take at least two bottles of Smirnoff Ice or star raddler while watching. I don't enjoy watching matches at home. I enjoy it more at joints
CrimeRe: I Don’t Know Why I Stabbed My Boss To Death, Stole His Car – Suspect by Focusmind: 11:50am On Apr 16, 2022
My aged parents have refused nanny or house boy. My mum is 67 and dad's 77. My mum is the one driving the car, cooking and bathing my dad as he is mildly incapacitated. This kind of news is making her not to bring any outsider to come and live or work with them.

She said she doesn't want any one that would collaborate with an outsider to murder or steal from them. I just have to stop insisting on getting a helper for her.
PoliticsRe: Insecurity: US Approves $1bn Attack Helicopters, Others For Nigeria by Focusmind: 8:24am On Apr 15, 2022
I don't know why US have not thought it wise to give us military aid. We do pay for every military hardware purchases, unlike some countries that continues to enjoy multimillion dollar aid in military hardware.

Egypt, Israel and recently, Ukraine have been getting military aid worth billions of dollars. Simple attack helicopter we have been asking for, they will bill us humongous amount and still delay the delivery of the hardware. Honestly, they have not been fair to Nigeria.
CareerRe: 7 Tips For Building A Successful Career by Focusmind: 1:27pm On Apr 14, 2022
In all situation, please use your brain. Do not be deceived. Understand your environment and have your next move deep in your heart.

Finally, make sure that you are in good books of your supervisor, especially, if you are working in Nigeria or else, na OYO - Be wise o !

Your supervisor can make or mar your career and recovering back could be depressing. People change job not because they hate their jobs or the company, it is because they hate their bosses.
EducationRe: I Feel Like I Wasted My Time On Education by Focusmind:
The problem with most educated/graduates is not knowing what to do with their qualifications.

With that your qualification, you are poised for a career in international NGOs, consulting and international agencies. The additional qualifications you got were not necessary. With your degree in sociology and masters in statistics, you should have developed more competence in SPSS, Data visualization, data analysis, TABULAR, Graphics design, Info-graphics and other statistical tools.

With this, you search for opportunities in monitoring and evaluation, program management, report writing and data management with UN agencies and INGOs. You should be able to know where your skills are needed.
FamilyRe: Training Your Wife To Be Through School by Focusmind: 5:37am On Apr 14, 2022
Marry her if she has all the qualities of a good wife, especially, respect and fear of God. Please forget this university of a thing. Enroll her in any school of nursing in the same State where you are living. University education is not the only license to better life in the future. Qualified nurses from Nigeria are securing jobs abroad now while those with the so high - grade qualifications are roaming around, looking for jobs.

Age could have nothing to do with marriage if the couple are sincere and respect each other. My wife was just 22 when I married her and she has grown and developed under my watch. Note that marrying a younger lady comes with a great deal of patience, responsibility, care, understanding and guidance. You will be practically doing a lot of things yourself, especially, if you are bringing her to a new location, as she grows and develops into the marriage.

All the best.

Okezie Ikpeazu and Yahaya Bello should follow suit and meet the president to inform him of their intentions to run. They possesses the requisite criterias. The president would be very excited to receive them and wish them well.

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Spotted In Lagos Boarding A Commercial Flight To Edo (Photos) by Focusmind: 7:59pm On Apr 13, 2022
This man should device another strategy. I know he is a very frugal person. This is Nigeria biko. You have to show workings before people could take you serious. Nigerian electorates are not swayed by these kind of thing. Majority are too ignorant to understand what it takes to govern.

Most Nigerians will still vote in the most incompetent candidates in 2023 and come online to start abusing them. Obi represents a paradigm shift but his way of operation will not get him the presidency. The presidency of Nigeria is mostly decided by illiterate voters who do not even have an Idea why they are voting.

Obi should build alliances. If he is not chosen via concensus by PDP, he is not getting the ticket. He has to bring in his war chest. That's how the game is played in Nigeria.

English language was probably his problem.
The best answer so far - English was his problem. He simply could not communicate properly.

Arsenal, by all standard and ranking, seems higher than Villarreal in the pecking order of popular and big clubs, even though they have not won continental trophy in recent years.
SportsRe: UCL: Why We Eliminated Bayern Munich – Villarreal Coach, Unai Emery by Focusmind: 2:30pm On Apr 13, 2022
But why this man no fit perform for Arsenalhuh

He almost took Arsenal to relegation. Since he went back to Spain, he has been doing well.

That is why it is good to assess where you are and decide if change of location could help improve your situation. Do not remain stagnant. Either you sack yourself or your organization sacks you. Then strategize and put on your thinking cap. No time for lamentation.

Well done Unai Emry.
PoliticsRe: Calling Buhari Major General Is Abuse Of Press Freedom - Lai Mohammed by Focusmind:
My respect for Punch Newspaper Editorial Board went high when they decided to address Buhari as Major - General Buhari, to highlight his high-handedness and absence of rule of law in his government. They do not even call his administration, government. They address his government as "regime".

We will never trust a northern again with power till further notice. Peter Okwute Ndigbo Obi for the rescue or everyone goes their separate ways. No tym for nonsense.
You think it is by threat?? That is what you people failed to understand. You can not continue with this IPOB menace and agenda and expect other Nigerians to support Igbo presidency. I like Peter Obi for sure but SE people do not know how to play good politics. Those that matter will sideline Obi when the time comes. Presidency is not served to anyone or region alacarte. You have to be deliberate and push towards it.

SE always play politics of We Vs Them. It is time you embrace other Nigerians and warn IPOB members to tone down on their rhetoric, which is not doing Igbo presidency any good. IPOB still remains the greatest threat to Igbo presidency.

Validated:
Tinubu's vote will be 5% of APC delegate from SW. There is a huge conspiracy against the Jagaban Borgu, Asiwaju of Africa. How are the mighty fallen.

I am awaiting Akereduolu to join the race so that the SW delegates votes can reduced per candidate. That way, the Jagaban can only get just Lagos and part of Osun state delegates.

With CBN governor joining the race, CBN should ban movement of bullion vans for a week before the primaries. Lets see how they will move the cash with pickup vans.grin grin grin grin
Na only you sabi wetin Tinubu do you grin

You hardly waits for any news about Tinubu to surface, you are already poised for show down. Abeg leave our Asiwaju alone.

All these politicians are the same
Foreign AffairsRe: Ukraine’s Zelenskyy Requests Address With Africa Union by Focusmind: 4:32pm On Apr 12, 2022
This man should go and sit down and stop requesting audience with every tom and dick.

This is a war that should have been avoided. He has seen how African countries have maintained neutrality in this whole drama and he is looking for opportunity to bring them to his side. I admire his propaganda and soft persuasive power sha.

I don't know why Nigeria should be voting against Russia. We should maintain neutrality and abstain. That is how it is done because we will still need Russia's help when it comes to fighting bandits and terrorists.

PetsRe: Photos Of The Python I Saved On Sit At Home Day by Focusmind: 8:26pm On Apr 11, 2022
Generalwoodz:
Are you in Ogidihuh

Growing up in that eastern hinterland saw me and my friends play hide and seek with Eke idemili (python). This snake is gentle and would do everything it takes to stay out of harm's way. It is revered, worshipped and sacred.

It's virtually every where one turns. Under your bed, in the ceiling, under your table and boy ! I kid you not. These creepy creations are always in places unimaginable.

Sometimes in the night, As a boy (nwoke) hungrily waiting around the three stones supporting a Boiling pot, as mama puts all required ingredients to cook us AKPU and ofe onugbu. we would chat and discuss heartily how the day went... At some point, one would feel something cold rub, massage his Achilles heel which would give you a chilly sensation and you'd quickly scamper. when you go for the kerosene lantern to confirm what it is; you'd see the EKE in it's full glory slithering way like a visitor with abandon.

Till this day the custom is still respected.
You are a true Nwa-afo. You just described my village settings in the 80s. I am also from Idemili. There was a time we brought out an old box from an abandoned room in our old house in the village. As the box was opened, see this sparkling python crawled out. The people just watched as it made its way to the nearby bush.

Russia is just a advanced Nigeria

Few fvcking rich people and poor masses.
Nothing comes close to Nigeria abeg.

Eastern European countries are very corrupt but you hardly see it as the government try to develop their country to look like other countries in Europe. Ukraine , Bulgaria, Serbia, Russia and Romania are all classified as very corrupt based on the European standards. Official corruption is one of the factors holding EU from commencing Ascension talks with Ukraine to becoming a member. Ukraine is equally seen as very corrupt. Forget the war going on. For some of their citizens, it is now opportunity to japa to EU countries. Just imagin, just after 3 months of war, more than 4m people have left Ukraine, including people living in areas that are far off the war zone

One thing about Europeans is that no matter how corrupt the government is, provision of basic amenities is taken for granted. Infrastructure and other basic necessities must be taken care of unlike the kind of greed and corruption we have in Nigeria and Africa.
