Oceanjagaban: It's very degrading and almost like a curse to tell someone you are from Nigeria,especially when you are in the diaspora.Our leaders have failed us....the original person wey cause this problem na that foolish idiot wey them call lord lugard,join two different people with different ideologies together,North and South....Original sin
Nigeria is not even there despite all the noise, bragging and needless comparison of institutions some Nigerians make everyday.
This means we have a lot of uneducated people in Nigeria and we can all see the ugly manifestation of the situation everyday.
Our government needs to declare the state of emergency in the education sector, all the stakeholders and bureaucrats involved in the management of the sector should be properly trained and retrained for effective service delivery.
Our leaders should stop playing politics with our education and appoint only the qualified individuals that will rapidly revamp the sector.
(CNN)A Black Hawk helicopter took its first autonomous flight without a pilot on board on Saturday at Fort Campbell, Kentucky.
The helicopter flew for 30 minutes without any passengers on board first on Saturday and again on Monday, according to a release from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Department of Defense's research arm.
The test flight is a part of DARPA's Aircrew Labor In-Cockpit Automation System (ALIAS) program, which aims to put "removable kits" into already existing military aircrafts to "promote the addition of high-level automation," the program's webpage says.
The Black Hawk helicopter, a UH-60A model, had Sikorsky MATRIX autonomous technology installed in it to make the helicopter fly without needing a pilot. Sikorsky MATRIX is a technology produced by the company Lockheed Martin.
"With reduced workloads pilots can focus on mission management instead of the mechanics," said Stuart Young, program manager in DARPA's Tactical Technology Office said in a release about the successful test flight. "This unique combination of autonomy software and hardware will make flying both smarter and safer."
The ALIAS program has "leveraged the considerable advances in aircraft automation systems over the past 50 years," the release said.
Young said autonomous helicopters, like the Black Hawk tested in this instance, will help Army pilots better achieve their missions.
"With ALIAS, the Army will have much more operational flexibility," Young added in the release. "This includes the ability to operate aircraft at all times of the day or night, with and without pilots, and in a variety of difficult conditions, such as contested, congested, and degraded visual environments."
MrBrownJay1: only a very deluded biased fool would compare Nigeria's economy with that of the USA.... no wonder so many countries are failing when their citizens think like the above.
here is a simple clue: the US generates $4 TRILLIONS in taxes every year to create just as many jobs as they desire, how much does Nigeria makes in taxes every year again?!?!?!
pocohantas: Wetin concern Naija men and redpill? Naija men wey fit sell their future for woman. As them take wicked, naso them take dey mumu for woman kwa.
abeg shift make I pass pocohantis you and I have had this argument sometime ago and I frowned at your comment that day.
Let me repeat what I said that day, all naija men aren't the same dear, I can control myself well.
I want to assume that you look pretty hot and so many men have come your way trying to date you, the reason for this statement every now and then because I know some foolish men can do the unthinkable to please ladies.
My advise for you, don't let this moment pass by without a marital decision, it won't always be like that forever
(CNN Business) Employers added a record 6.6 million jobs during Joe Biden's first 12 months in office, by far the strongest record of any president's first year in office.
The unexpected strength of the January jobs report along with some revisions in readings for November and December pushed Biden over the 6 million mark. But he could have claimed that distinction even without them. The previous record holder was Jimmy Carter, who saw a gain of 3.9 million jobs in his first 12 months in office.
By comparison, Donald Trump's first 12 months in office notched a gain of 2 million jobs.
This is visionary leadership guys, despite the pandemic that ravaged US with almost 1 million deaths, the economy has recovered very fast.
In Nigeria, president buhari has spent 7 years in office and there's nothing to show for it, unemployment and inflation rate is unprecedented due to bad policies. There's fuel scarcity right now, going and coming back from work is not going to be easy, I hope the scarcity will disappear soon because it will affect so many things, we are already feeling it.
What is wrong with us as a people? Why can't we govern ourselves? An oil rich country oo Seun, lalasticlala, myn44
everythinggirly: God! RIP to the dead. The energy the Nigerian Army is exerting on IPOB should be transferred to the northern bandits. Banditry and terrorism are our problems not secessionists.
they all pose serious threat to our corporate existence
Five soldiers died on Tuesday while others were critically injured after a MRAP (mine-resistant, ambush protected vehicle) had an accident in Anambra State.
SaharaReporters gathered that the soldiers from the 302 Artillery Regiment, General Support, Onitsha were on their way to Ihiala to join with their colleagues at a military checkpoint after receiving information that operatives of the Eastern Security Network (ESN) were planning to attack the checkpoint
This is sad, sending my condolences and speedy recovery to the injured.
MITCHELL96: Asin ehn, that's how they sold water to me as kerosene, I didn't know untill one day I bought 4 litres only for my Stove to stop catching fire in just 2 days, I opened it and checked, to my surprise, it's water they sold and have been selling for me, so it's not only fuel, they do this with kerosene too.
MITCHELL96: Even as they're not a Member of NATO, There's a high tendency it could lead to WWIII, you never can tell, like I said, These guys are all thirsty for blood, believe me, there's how it's doing them in their body having all these high end weapons stored Their armoury house doing Nothing, the world is so ill bruhh
Yeah, though having those dangerous weapons are more of deterrence, I don't think they will ever use nuclear weapons against each other, I may be wrong sha
MITCHELL96: We have no say in this, It's only prayers that can help us, we should just pray Putin listens to Biden, because if Russia invades Ukraine, I can see a World war III happening, and with all these new age weapons, 90% of World might be cleared off, It's going to be a bloody one
I don't think It will lead to world war III because Ukraine is not a member of NATO, US and other NATO countries will only provide weapons, they won't get involved directly
