Don't you think if he doesn't address this, anoda of his fan might decide to do same thing..
He's only addressing this to prevent same thing from occurring.

it is a shame that some Nigerian youths are still in stupidity mode.The truth will soon be revealed how Jonathan and his cronies heavily stole from the Nigerian people.

Yes it is because at worst it will end that reality(life/body) but the real you lives on for eternity anyway. Illusions don't exist for ever, they fade as your shift in time. Time itself is an illusion.

You are your God....your actions can only hurt yourself. Let's not forget this physical reality is not real. It's like playing Call of Duty and getting shot. It will seem like it hurts you even why it's only the character in that game will be affected. On a more advance level, we are God living like we are our body, which we ain't. Our true selves is HUGE and cannot be hurt by the silly things we do with this Avater.

adajoe555:
I have

adajoe555:
Ok no problem

adajoe555:
lol.
thats good a need you to tell me the story

adajoe555:
Don't worry you will soon become one.


Don't worry you will soon become one.

adajoe555:
Yes I did

That's why we are good but sometimes I don't just like the way people treat us. though it's fulfilling bible prophecy

adajoe555:
whether it is made up or not they shouldn't ridicule us

what sort of rubbish story is that

adajoe555:
If you look around the world Jehovah's witnesses children are more decent than any other all these rubbish trash you people are saying here about us beside no one is perfect everyone makes mistake. you guys keep castigating us everywhere.I will stop talking to people like you who corrupts us

What is my middle name

How did Frank fire the first shot? The troll started it by calling Frank an oversabi. Of course Frank is a celebrity so it's easy for you guys to ignore the first diss.

TheGoodJoe:
Can you as an engineer maintain a machine for three years without repairs? Maintain is to keep it in working condition.

TheGoodJoe:
Did you not read maintain? Na wa.

Engineers in the USA just do not build bridges, submarines, Airbus and spaceships from their salaries, these projects like railways, power stations require a lot of financial resources to muster the design fabrication, prototype testing, model construction, testing and actual project implementation. Only governments or large financial loans can foot such bills.
And who says safety is a guarantee? can you remember the NASA space ship challenger, and the accident that occurred at launch. That wasn't their first or last. It was not out of poor design or incompetency and I am sure NASA and the USA government have taken measures to prevent such an occurrence in future.
The fact is, there is nothing holding back the minister from saying that "Nigerian Engineers will now build our railway system".
The minister, if he is technologically sound, should have the basic idea of what a railway system is all about. He will then proceed to look inwards for capable persons who can come up with the needed design ideas, who are capable of making recommendations to the resources available in our country that can be pulled together for such a project.
He will further build up a basic plan for the project startup, which will involve fabrications and assembly of parts needed to build railway equipment.
Our government need to invest in home made technology for big things. The North Korean nuclear technology is built by North Koreans, they cannot afford to have foreigners involved in such a project.
The missing thing in our country is not the knowledge, it's the opportunity. We are used to importing technology, right from time and the risk is that we will always import technology especially at the rate technology is changing or evolving in every field. We need to start so we can catch up someday.
Our railway system like Innoson vehicles you refer to may not be the best looking railway coaches or tracks at first build but all technology products start from somewhere to what you see and call modern today, cars from Mercedes, BMW etc are looking sleek and sweet every year because most times they just put a new body over the same frame while they develop a new frame. same thing with phones. Remember the Tecno mobile 15 years ago, I wouldn't buy a Tecno, It used to be a very weak, china product that would fail any day, with its 2 or 3 sim.

We can make it if we try, building technology for ourselves. Nigerian engineers can build powers stations, warships, planes etc, if the government focuses on supporting indigenous technology. And that is the first step to over come failures because we will easily identify the problem within the design, the weak part of our product, that is causing the failure and make it stronger, hence a more reliable product at the end that we can sell to other nations.

I have built and fabricated a few things myself since childhood. I studied mechanical engineering, but I love electronics. In 1987 I built my first FM transmitting station on campus and continued to develop my design till 1994 when the NYSC sponsored my project to build and install an FM station on the NYSC camp in Kwara state through Colonel Sofoluwe who was the DG of the scheme at that time. That wouldn't have been possible on my own. I was not presented with an award even at that.
In 1998 I built a transistor UPS inverter which I powered a few appliances in my room using old car batteries and this were not inventions but things I made myself using components manufactured by other people and available in the market or some from scraps.
I still build things to day with a lot of ideas but you only stop at designs and a few prototypes because big cash makes things real.

Innoson will soon become one of the leading auto manufacturers in Africa in a few years as soon as they can break even and begin to produce cars at a price people are willing to try. If an Innoson brand new car goes for N1m or N600k I am sure people will begin to think again. What our government or ministers need to do is to move into Innoson and subsidize their manufacturing so they can roll out vehicles at unbelievable prices such that Nigerian can try them out, this will give Innoson the opportunity to discover the areas of improvement in their design and give them the needed resources to get better.
Nigeria can make it, our leaders do not believe in the country, all they want is to make money from contract! contract!! contract!!!

Mechanical engineering

Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies engineering, physics, and materials science principles to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is the branch of engineering that involves the design, production, and operation of machinery. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines.

FROM WIKIPEDIA

If a Mech. Engineer cannot figure his way around a car engine, is that one a Mech. engineer?

TheGoodJoe:
Mech Engineering Professors should know the engines of Cars and Generators inside out.
