Lol thank you.

So, gist me, typically what do these your friends like to be bought for them? How do they want money to be spent by their would-be men?

Landed properties in the choicest areas of Ikoyi, Magodo and Ikeja.

SurvTessy:
Good day guys! Please how do I know if "Tailor" is on the demand list for express entry or any of the pnp? Thank you for your prompt response.

Hi Tessy.

The tailor profession can be found under the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST) Express Entry route.

The NOC Code for "Tailor" is: Teer 4
NOC 64200 as seen in the image below.

One of the requirements for this route is to show your qualifying certificate that you obtained in the course of your skill acquisition.

Cheers.

Absolutely! I recalled when I worked in Nigeria and we were preparing to publish the salaries range of employees in a major industry in Nigeria, my boss' friends cautioned against it because people would now know how much their salaries are. We too dey hide things, especially info that could be of immense benefit to the society.


My female classmates from secondary school and university have chastised me for being "stingy". In my defence, I say I am frugal or prudent. One said na lie, that I am parsimonious. Truth is: I am not a fan of giving people money "anyhow". I believe there has to be workings behind every financial request and well detailed. Just like my fact-finding mission, the person has to provide reasons why that money is needed. One in secondary school likened me to Nkem Owoh in the movie "Calculator". I spend on women and largely with no strings attached. I can invite a random lady to a nice restaurant and I will cover the bills (I have done such both in Nigeria and here). What I don't like are excessive demands as I see on social media these days. I will snap out of anger. I have bad mouth sef.

We are shy of speaking about money/salaries in this part of the world to avoid "billing" or for security purpose. Sometimes, I don't blame hoarders. We too dey overdo things.

Loool, I'm short of words. Do wetin dey work for you sha.

Excessive demands ke? Hmm. Oh well.

Ughhh!

Fly away Peter, fly away Paul.

It answers many questions such as their trajectories, their tuition fees and locations. For instance, soon-to-be parents can know where a school's strengths lie. Even for this school, its exploits could be compared to other top schools nearby. There is much dearth of accurate information regarding everyday discourse in Nigeria. So much anecdotal information which is not balanced and cannot be easily verified. When data is available, it makes people make better decisions. For those who are behind, it shows where the problem originates from and what they should do to improve. For instance, in this school, parents can know why it is better (in which areas) than others. For would-be employees, they know how much salaries and bonuses are offered.

When people ask questions, accurate answers need to be provided. When people make certain claims, they should be backed up with valid data. That way, everyone learns and society is better for it. Outlandish claims should not be allowed to stand the test of time. Everything should be backed up with cold-hard facts.


Amen too. You really like money o. Wahala go dey be that because....


Honestly, I find that statement very irritating. I have no issues with anyone having an opinion (everyone has the right to one), but please don't run with it as a fact, especially in public.

Oh certainly, I agree with your reasoning.

We need to inculcate the data keeping habit in Nigeria. It'd take a long walk to the promise land but I believe it's possible.

Why I nor go like money?😂😂😂
Lol what Wahala, talk na, I'm all ears.


Hahahaha you're funny though. Even sellers in the market use that line to deceive you to buy their rotten/substandard goods. "Oga, buy my market, na better Jos tomatoes, I nor fit lie give you, you be my brother". Proceeds to sell rotten tomatoes.

Amigoss:
Oh ok,I was confusing the two...

Lol, I know.

Gerrard59:
Thanks for the info. Before your post, I did a bit of search and saw the school produced the second-highest JAMB scorer in 2024. Not a mean feat. So, the school is good by all accounts. I have a lot of work to do regarding checking the trajectories of alumni of the most expensive secondary schools in Nigeria. That will be one interesting study.

You are a rich girl o! Got any of your friends to recommend?

At the bold, you don catch me. I like a data-driven discourse. It makes everything interesting and edutaining.

Yes of course, the school is good by all accounts. I like the balance between academic and social activities for the students.

Lol, what are you planning to do with the data of expensive schools in Nigeria. I'm curious.

Amen oh, I claim riches in my life. 😂😂
If I recommend any of my friends, you must spend money oh.

Lol, yes, I've observed you're a facts and figures person. It really is a good thing by the way instead of relying on "Bros, I nor fit lie for you".

Gerrard59:
How much is the school fee for a term in say SS1?

cc: folake4u You mentioned excellent academics. Please do you have access to where the JAMB and WASSCE scores of their students are published? Where do the majority of their alumni end up after secondary school education? Private universities in Nigeria? Federal universities or abroad (which of the abroad)? I know the questions are plentiful, but I am just curious because those are some of the metrics used to assess how academically good a secondary school is.

I can't remember how much their fees cost again. I don't know the current price.

No, I don't have access to where the scores of the students are published.

They end up majorly in private schools, abroad and few end up in public schools.

A good example of an alumnus is Amarachi, Winner of Nigeria's Got Talent Show.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amarachi

All in all, the students of the school are sound. Unfortunately, I don't have "data" to show to you. Lol.

Amigoss:
Udss

There's UDSS and also UPSS.

jelel6:
Very expensive school. But they try to educate their students beyond traditional academics.

Their students are mostly the best when they compete in state wide competitions.

Thank you for your honesty.

Gerrard59:
I appreciate your honesty as that is likely the major reason behind those who vehemently criticise them. It is one of the disadvantages of living as a middle-class to an upper-middle-class individual in Nigeria: one gets so much envy from nearby people and passers-by.

The absolute truth. Lool.

Ahigbo1:
Congrats, girl 🎉

Hi Sir, you sent me a PM.

Is there any problem?

Is it worth it since its her past or I should take my bag and leave, note that it's not certain I would see a virgin, even my own body count is more than 30 if I'm being honest here

Na wa.

You dey find virgin when your body count is more than 30? Yet you still have issues with the said lady who said hers is less than 20?

Such audacity.

Lol, a community prîck indeed.

Congratulations on your bountiful harvest.

The aroma and taste of this native white corn is out of this world.

Kai. I'm craving corn and ube now.

Ahigbo1:
They're looking too huge for secondary school.

Well, these indomie children mostly appear older than their age

Lol yes, this is true.

Staywithbina:
The school just do advert

Advert ke?

School wey the children of politicians and rich folks attend in Benin City? Keep playing.

I was patiently waiting for this video to enter Nairaland.

UPSS is one of the most expensive schools in Benin City. And this has been a tradition for more than 10 years.

The school is known for extravaganza, so I don't understand all these noise. They even have their own TV show which used to air on ITV where they show the social activities of the school.

It is a good school actually but quite expensive. They're good in academics and social activities.

siofra:
Nigerian men are very confused people.

They will disturb elderly women and beg them to be sugar mummies. When these women reject them, they come back to nairaland and say older women have no value so that their fellow men here will give them cheap likes to use and console themselves.

The bar keeps rising.

The goalpost have shifted to following women in their 50s-60s.

Congratulations to Nigerian women. Una too much.

Davash222:
The gum used to hold that "555" sticker is stronger than the unity of Nigeria.


You can use the cup for 30 years and the sticker will still be there.

😂😂😂😂

Then you're a crook doctor.

Are you okay, Doctor? What do you take me for?
