Don't be surprised all these cost 50m.

It is just outrageous.

HacheNoire:
Team “Talk yo the child” will be here soon to tell you how she needs to discuss with her child!

If that child had been flogged when necessary and felt severe pain, No way he will have ever have the instinct of going that extreme.

Now they have to talk to him again and ask him why he did such and why he should never do such again.

You'd wish my father flogged you and not talk to you.

He also flogged but rarely, and it was even less effective that talking.

The boy's nonsense did not start today. She hadn't given the boy sufficient discipline in the past. This is long term negligence.

Ahe is most likely a single mother

That Amosun man is a very petty personality.

The delay was inexcusable. He should have removed pronto all roadblocks to the establishment of the Dangote refinery.

That was how he revoked a Free Trade Zone started by his predeccesor, Otunba Daniels, because he was droma rival party and not his own initiative. The Chinese investor has taken the Ogun state government to court because of it.

ImIfeyinwaWj:
The hypocrisy in this editorial is mind-blowing. The writer is so consumed by envy that he cant see the bigger picture.

Bros,
Calm down.

If you simply said you were Tinubu no.1 fanboy for Nairaland, we go all agree.

FreeStuffsNG:
The late Founder of Cutix is a Akokite. He was a brilliant and pragmatic UNILAG-trained Mechanical Engineer.

He built that company successfully and even acquired other struggling competitor to further expand the business. Unfortunately , today his estate is longer the majority owner of the company.

He died last year and a substantial part of his shares in his company has been sold by his children and family since he died last year. The new owner may later change the name of the company.

He obviously did not prepare his children to takeover from him.

Japanese won't be senseless to allow their currency to drop to that level. They know what it means to be an economic powerhouse.

It isn't what they liked or don't like. Their economy is yet to recover from the busting of the economic bubble of the late 20th century.

They were the third richest country in the world. They are now 4th after Germany.

When you consider that Japan has 123m people and Germany 83m, it is indicative of a huge problem.

lordm:
Nope, you are wrong.
The Chinese imports are lower than their export and they had a surplus of 1 trillion dollars this year so far.
Don't say what you don't know

He did say some facts.

Unfortunately, it was Buhari that left a mess, big economic mess. Tinubu is cleaning up the mess through his reforms.

However, rhe price of cars cam come down if the duties on them can be reduced.. Presently, its outrageously high, the fault coming from Jonathan's government, and as government is a continuum, others simply abided by it, rather than scrap it altogether.

The president of tha5 country asked for assistance.

What .most don't realise are that coups seem contagious. It started with Mali about 5 years ago.

Today, we have Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Gabon, and Guinea Bissau. All are under military rule. After Benin, which country would be next?

Even self, Nigeria it seemed apparently crushed a coup plot.

He is a model prisoner.

He has stopped wearing Fendi.

Tbough AI, no peace for the wicked. Many got killed because of his bloodsucking oratory.

SpencerForbes:
First off, it’s going to take her roughly 20 years to get a million bucks at the rate of $1k per week. So, why don't you just grab the twenty years' worth of payments right now and start planning your retirement? It’s like picking a quick 10k over getting a solid 500k—you can actually do something tangible with the bigger amount (rent, enough provision etc), but the small one won't even buy dinner for 2 days. Besides the company might crash before then.

With $1,000 a week, she could purchase a property of $500,000 with a mortgage, and the rent would take care of mortgage payments, and some profit.

She continues the process over 10 years and she could have 10 properties generating her around $4,000 a week in rental profit. That's about $200,000 a year, and her equity value in them could be around $2m.

Richhard:
But Finland birthrate is low, so what's your point?

Finland's birth rate is 1.26, while South Korea is 0.72

The difference is clear.

udemzyudex:
How does it relate bro?

Birth rate and school grading system?

Haba.

The parent is heavily invested into their child excelling and that takes a toll.

tommy589:
What should children be doing when parents are out looking for daily bread,is it not to be reading books.
If every child here have the same standard of living and are not learning on empty stomach.Pay teachers well,bring the same curriculum and set daily volume of school work that keeps them away from games,television and Internet browsing.
Grade them accordingly,they have no choice than to achieve results in the same manner

This is too much. Not everything is education, work and make money. There needs to be balance.

In climes without such brutal garding scales, students have done quite well such as in Germany and Finland.

brain54:
I don't see the angle from which this correlates with declining birth rate...


You can elaborate more!

The parents have to work very hard to ensure their children achieve this high grades.

The parents are ready to go to any limit to ensure their children excel. This takes a toll.

Some couples, rather than go through this nightmare, opt out from raring children.

Imagine 60% or less is F and you know there is a problem. There's more to life than this.

Finland, which has the best education in the world, has a much laid back approach that achieves wonders.

The only real benefit of this system is that it makes South Korean students excel when they sojourn overseas.

It is the way Nigerian uni students excel when they go to a UK or US university. A Third Class here student can earn a First Class easily there.

Money from the scam wey fem don scam una ontop fake subsidy... that money is from the money wey dem de scam us ontop fuel price ...in collaboration with government officials and cabals

Like that wicked uncle wey hold papa wey don die land de act like say e care for the pikin e sell papa land 50m ...come give 5m as sponsor for education...the person come de happy de praise am....

Dangote wasn't a beneficiary of the subsidy. The subsidy was almost gone when the refinery began operations. If he enjoyed any, it would have been very little.

Wickedtruths:
Reminds me of Dangote Graduate Drivers Scheme.
How many of his trucks do you see graduates driving?

Brethren, sing with me.

If you do good, kingdom...

That job isn't for graduates. That was why it failed. They can't face Nigerian roads.

Now, Dangote is talking. People need to know him outside his business.

Most people just see him as a shylock businessman, man who wants to squeeze out every dime from the pockets of the masses.

I must also add that he is humble and not proud.

He is showing a humane side of his which is good.

The competition Dangote is facing is brutal.

I don't blame the competition. They have been in the business and can't just wake up and see an upstart kick them out of business.

They would have been kicked out of business had Tinubu enforced the Petroleum Industry Bill which basically ended importation of products into the country by those who had zero refining capacity locally. Dangote tried another means: a 15% import duty on imported fuels but there was an outcry and this was quickly dropped.

I like this message. We need our men learning from the girls. The girls are already preparing retirement planning before the end of their football career.

Michelle Alozie is also shining like this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--uRwQRbKGI


It's difficult to see men doing this. Though, it could be that men are well paid but guys are carried away by the allure of football wages they forget to plan for tomorrow. A Footballer's career is not more than 10-15 years and only a few goalies or Ronaldo/Messi have been able to play much longer. Injuries can happen anytime too. Wolves will surround you at your limelight but education will help you in planning your second career.

Only Fabregas I can use as an example for men

Before joining Arsenal, Cesc Fàbregas's education consisted of completing his formal schooling in Spain while simultaneously developing his talent and tactical awareness at FC Barcelona's La Masia academy. He moved to London shortly after his 16th birthday, having finished his academic requirements, and his subsequent time at Arsenal under Arsène Wenger became a practical "football university" where he gained invaluable professional experience. After retiring as a player with Italian club Como, Fàbregas immediately pursued formal coaching qualifications, successfully earning his UEFA Pro License while working as an assistant and youth coach. With this top-tier certification secured, he formally transitioned into his current role as the head coach of Como, demonstrating a lifelong commitment to learning and a seamless move from playing to managing.

Education is no joke please. Invest in it.

She does look intelligent.

No bow down and leak their foot as your masters and the people who saved Tinubu's ass during the last election.


🤣🤣🤣

I am not a tribalist or political.

All I see is someone being petty that Peter Obi lost. He would definitely lose again in 2027 if he refuses to be Atiku's apprentice. He should "serve" him for 8 years and Atiku go give am his own shop (the preisdency).

Tinubu put Buhari there for the sole purpose of him to become president one day, and that is after him. Better go learn how the country works.

When I saw South Korea's grading system, it dawned on me why the country has the lowest birthrate in the world!

It is constant pressure on children to excel, and this translates into agonizing long hours at school, and at home to do very well.

I had 5 A's and 2 C's in both my WEAC and GCE but I doubt I would be able to endure the system.

What about you? Can you survice it? Can your child? Or do you prefer they see expo ?

SlavaUkraini:
Since Buhari and the APC came to power, these people suddenly developed liver and effrontery to misbehave all over the nation ...

Cursed is the day that the APC came to power

No, rather curse the day that Adam sinned, and rejoice the day Jesus gave his life as a ransom for Adam's sin.

South Korea is giving bonuses for giving birth now. Trump has also considering something like that for the US but he won't say it openly that he wants white women to give birth. The question we should ask is WHY? Why are young people not giving birth or why are they not able to give birth?

I watched the video. Thanks.

Did you know that 283,000 children were born in 2024? If that number stayed consistent, that would mean the country would have a population of 28.3 million in a 100 years time.

However, it will only get worse. In 50 years time, the country would have 14.3m people of child bearing age. If at 51.2m, the babies birthed are 283,000 in a year, that would mean at 14.3m people, it would be a quarter of that which would be around 70,750 babies.

The figures are frightening.

Peter Obi never slandered Muslims in that video.

His words have been deliberately twisted to achieve his debasement. That's just savage.

He could never win the elections in 2027. This might have made his chances worse.
