Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Get A Federal Job Or Move To Canada by Focusmind: 2:55pm On May 05, 2022
Get out of this country if you can.

Canada is becoming the most immigration friendly first world country. However, you have to come in through one of the numerous legal routes to enjoy the opportunities it offers. It will be difficult initially settling in but you are gonna have prosperous future for yourself and kids.

Best of luck!

Just look at how the market is? Like a concrete jungle. People hailing non State actors with guns is an invitation to long term anarchy. They should continue. I wonder how the region will be in the next 20 years to come.
Education › Re: Which Course Can One Study With A Waec Result Like This by Focusmind: 12:06pm On May 04, 2022
Social work with specialization on animal care - Na to use the certificate japa be the koko

Those courses people used to look down in Nigeria before like nursing, social work and other health care courses are what people are dying for to get because of recent opportunities in developed countries.

Use it and apply to school that offers social work at the under graduate level.

What do you gain by going tribal? The Catholic Church is not Igbo, the Catholic Church is universal.
Stop responding to all these SE based Igbos. They are always insensitive to the views of other people, fuelled by crass ignorance. Chest beating is part of the culture there. Imagine going tribal on top Catholic matterhuh
Travel › Re: Rwanda's Capital Kigali Is The Cleanest City In Africa by Focusmind: 11:13am On May 03, 2022
Nigeria is a jungle with heaps of concrete. Most African countries have left us behind in terms of liveability of cities and decency. The only benefit or edge Nigeria have is money. All these African countries can't boast of any opportunity for business.
Travel › Re: What Are The Cons Of Moving Abroad? by Focusmind: 9:49am On May 03, 2022
Loneliness. Gush! I hate that thing. Forget the interactions and gatherings of Nigerians and parties that happens once in a while. After that, you are back to your loneliness. Call your friends for an adventure somewhere, some will tell you that they are working. People were really shuttling between jobs to make ends meet. Rat race everywhere.

Racism: I never experienced that in UK. I packaged my self very well, with good sense of dressing. I participated well in the affairs of my parish, Catholic church and made lots of Scottish friends in the Paris that always invited me to their houses for Sunday lunch.
Even while working in a hospital, I got along well with my white colleagues and the chief matron. One volunteered to be picking me up from my place to the hospital. I was the only black person in the hospital.

Election lawyers are taking note. For failure to resign within the recommended period in the electoral act, your victory at the pull is hereby annulled. The person with the second highest number of valid votes will be returned as the duly elected candidate.

There will be lots of litigations after the 2023 election.
Travel › Re: Four Die, Others Injured In Third Mainland Bridge Crash by Focusmind: 9:26am On May 02, 2022
Nigeria's public transport drivers are the most deranged set of human beings in the world.

So reckless, careless and stubborn. In some cases, driving with a bottled up anger from the park and the influence of substances on them.
Politics › Re: Demola Seriki Buys Lagos Central APC Senatorial Form by Focusmind: 8:36am On May 02, 2022
Confirmed.

I have come to the conclusion that no career politician will take am ambassadorial post seriously. It doesn't pay in their own reconning. Being an ambassador or a diplomat is one of the roles I cherishes so much. The government should stop appointing politicians the post of an ambassador.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Germany Finally Approves Heavy Weapons For Ukraine by Focusmind: 8:25pm On Apr 28, 2022
We are about to witness the longest war in European history.

For sure, Russia will not back down. They will rather increase the offensive.

Wished that Nigeria could capitalize on this war and earn some good money on gas.

EU is not considering Nigeria for long term supply contract because of issues surrounding security of supply.

They can not rely on Nigeria to guarantee them supplies as at when due because of political and economic instability

Algeria and Qatar are going to be the biggest beneficiaries of this war.

Health › Re: Woman Gave Birth Along Ozumba Mbadiwe This Morning by Focusmind: 11:16am On Apr 28, 2022
The traffic and stress this morning reach for person to give birth prematurely

Starting from inward Marina, a heavy tanker, fully loaded, lost control and rammed into the fence of the Governors lodge, creating a heavy gridlock all along the Marina. Any pregnant woman along that route heading to Ozumba would be forced into labor.

Lagos stress is too much.

Penguin2:
They’ve finally turned 2023 to a joke undecided

All I know is that all things are working together for Peter Obi.

But thinking critically, I think this is Tinubu foes giving these men money to buy ticket to chop into Southwest delegates since Tinubu thinks he’s smart and is insisting on Indirect Primaries.

Osinbajo and Amosun will share Ogun delegates

Fayemi will take Ekiti delegates.

Akeredolu might direct Ondo delegates to vote Fayemi or Osinbajo.

Oyo will be shared by all Southwest aspirants.

That leaves only Lagos and Osun for Tinubu.

Southeastern and Southsouth delegates would rather burn in abyss than vote for Tinubu.

Whie northern delegates will definitely go for whoever Buhari endorses.

Tinubu and his urchins will forever regret his 2015 treachery against the south.
Be deceiving yourself. You people always hype yourselves and your chances and at the end, you would just fall like pack of cards.

All these may be political strategy. On the day of the election, all these hired aspirants will step down for Tinubu, much to the dismay of top contender like Osibanjo.

Stop hyping Peter Obi. Outside the educated and well informed Nigerians, nobody knows him. Ask any average voter in the North whether he knows who Peter Obi is and he would answer no.

Christianity Etc › Re: Ibiyeomie: Joblessness Is Not Caused By Devil. It's Caused By Lack Of Integrity by Focusmind: 5:07pm On Apr 27, 2022
All these pastors and motivational speakers are not always fair to Nigerian youths and job seekers. We may have everything - good grade, made the effort, press the buttons, prayed hard and yet, Nigeria will still do you. It is not about possessing the right qualification, the system sometimes, conspire to make your efforts to be wasted efforts. The country and its business environment is simply not employment and job friendly.
Car Talk › Re: See What Happened To Me After I Changed My Car Tyre For The First Time (graphic) by Focusmind: 11:40am On Apr 27, 2022
Honestly, I have never had any incidence to change my tyre myself. The near incidence I had was coming from Ajah towards lekki phase one. I had a puncture as I was getting close to the House on the rock church.

I brought out my tools to do the unthinkable. As I was looking to know where to start from, two young boys of about twelve years appeared and collected the tools. They worked together, removed the punctured tyre. One even had to use his weight to let the spanner rotate properly to remove the screws.

I really felt sorry for the young lads because of the current economic situation. I had to ask them to follow me to the nearby ATM as I didn't just want to give them the little money on me. I wanted something bigger and they really showed their appreciation, kneeling down and thanking me.

They are the real street hustlers not scammers.
Properties › Re: Construction Of A 3 Bedroom Bungalow by Focusmind: 11:22am On Apr 27, 2022
SOCHDESIGNS:
..Yes...In a situation where both beams that met at the corner are continuous( came from a considerable distance), you might not require columns at the corner...the two beams can hang freely( once properly reinforced and depending on the overal span of the overhang and the amount of load you expect ontop of the beam as you continue raising the structure)
That's if you are having one corner window just below the beams. How do you do it when you want to have like two or three corner windows in the same vertical direction, just below each other without having any column at that corner
Properties › Re: Construction Of A 3 Bedroom Bungalow by Focusmind: 10:25pm On Apr 26, 2022
SOCHDESIGNS:
...Thanks boss...am sure you already know the reason for the two columns at the entrance porch.....as for the Two on the both sides of the living room, a look at the 3D, you will notice we have corner windows at those two points....and having those columns there is cheaper than a fully reinforced overhang beams...... please take a look at a place we had a similar use case
Well explained. Could there be a situation where you won't see columns at corner windows and still have openings for the corner windows? I love the beauty that corner windows brings to building

More fire, Mr. Ekpa.

I want the ignorant supporters to feel the impact and direct their anger towards the idiot. Lucking down a whole economy! Could you imaginehuh Some unemployed youths, who have nothing to loose will be hear supporting this kind of behavioiur.

I like the way FG is following this sit-at-home. No comment. Just silence and ignore them. Nothing pains a person when you ignores him or her despite his effort at attracting your attention.
Phones › Re: Twitter In Last Minute Negotiations With Elon Musk Over Sale by Focusmind: 3:15pm On Apr 25, 2022
SmartPolician:
I consider Elon Musk the most innovative man the world has ever known. One man: SpaceX, Boring Company, Tesla and now, Twitter! Jesus!

Well, I didn't know that Jack Dorsey was going to sell this company. Indeed, impossible is nothing. BTW, Elon Musk should do more of charity than buying up every forward-looking company.

There comes a time in a man's life that he has acquired so much wealth that he cannot even finish in his lifetime. Be like Bill Gates and help millions of hungry ones around the world.
You are right regarding his contribution to charity cause. I do not know if he funds any charity like most billionaires in US. Anyway, it is his money. He can do whatever he wants with it.

If Trump had succeeded with bullying Tiktok, Musk would have bought Twitter
Agriculture › Re: Snake Killed Inside Toilet At The Farm by Focusmind:
oz4real83:
the gland that contains the venom is in the neck of the snake, not the head.
Based on what I watched on NatGeoWide, especially Simon Keys program, "Snake in the city", anytime he wanted to extract venom, he opens the snake's mouth and puts the upper fangs in a cup and press its head. I hardly see him press the neck. It is the head that he presses and the venom will trickle from the upper fangs inside the little container.

Hello madam, if you are the one, I beg you, tell your husband not to take that risk. You can continue with your teaching in Nigeria while he goes there to survey the environment. All these African countries are Sitholes when it comes to economic prospects. Except if you have huge reserve of cash to set up a new business without much local competitors
