Abeg from your knowledge of bridge building, how long should it take assuming that all resources are available?

13yrs to build a 600m bridge is rubbish jor, the longest bridge in the world was constructed in just 4yrs, and it was 165000m long.

chuka5000:
onitsha bridge AKA Niger bridge is at the South eastern part of Nigeria, that's why it's called onitsha bridge and not asaba bridge.

A bridge linking asaba and onitsha together, is located only in onitsha?

Does that even make sense to u?

What exactly did he say that you have heard and have deduced from your own intelligence that is sufficient to cause division? I'm really curious because as far as i know, the only people in America Trump has consistently attacked are democrats, and as far as i am concerned they are the ones fueling the division as a political tool.

But what do i know, I am expecting to hear from you.

Do u follow Trump on Twitter, do u watch his press conference and interviews.
If u do all this and think he's totally ok then no problem.

dokie:
I am earnestly waiting for the answers too from ibuildstuff:, because these guys just follow the crowd, without making objective deductions on their own..

What is Donald Trump's sin?

If u follow America politics and Trump character and utterance seems ok to you, then no problem. Don't expect me to spell anything out for u.

Bojack:
You have a long way to go

U mean culture of using people as slave. Bro come lemme school u. You are still a learner.

WILLuKPquiet:
Christians will never force Christianity down anyone's throat. Its a thing of choice. If your hear preaching on your radio or TV and you hate it that much. Common sense is to turn it off.

Whatever u say.

lagdmark:
No! the so called developed countries started the enforcement, who told you there's liberty anywhere.
have been ever been arrested in Nigeria and asked to worship in a church or mosque on gun points

Of course they did enforce religion on us like 400 yrs ago but we can't keep dwelling on the past.

Nigeria may be ok for u like this, but for me it's not. No need for the long argument.

SegFault:
It's true but, bros I hear that Christian communities over there discriminate against people of other religions especially muslims and stupidly they are usually racists.

Of course no place is perfect but am honestly tired of Nigeria, being in this country is just frustrating me.

There are many developed atheist country tho.

SegFault:
Bros if you jam American Christians you'll realise that 80% of them are dumb.

I Know that, but at least in a develop country everyone has their liberty to be what ever they want.

Here in Nigeria they will force the Religion down ur throat.

A friend told me dat he had a dream dat he was fvcking me ND when he wakes he saw sperm all ova him..pls am I a spiritual wife?

You are not his spiritual wife, dude probably have a crush on u and has imagine banging you b4. Secondly he is very Hot at the moment n has not had sex for a long time.

It happens to young guys, when they don't have sex for a long time they start having such dreams.

If it was a science Discovery, Nigeria people will tell u it's a lie. But as na Bible then is true. Dumb people. I hate this country.

Injera:
Mr man dig deep, really deep and see that Trump alone is the one stopping those working with Satan to enslave humanity.
These people have successful destroyed the UK , Sweden and France through destruction of their cultures and heritage.
USA is next and they are ones funding this so called BLM movement..cough cough Soros

This is my exact problem with Trump supporters, even if there was to be a second Messiah, Trump is definitely not that person.

What culture and heritage did UK ever have, speaking of morality is UK not even better than US.

BotherMleeper:
It's actually worse for Biden.

Trump is using the violence to portray Democrats as supporting anarchy and chaos, while Trump uses the "Law and Order" mantra to spread fear and prop himself up as the savior of the American way of life.

Already Biden has lost some ground while general opinion of race has taken a negative turn because of the endless protests and violence.

Same could be said about Trump even some gop senators are avoiding Trump.

To be honest no one can predict the next US president

dokie:
Did he really cause the division?

Here in Nigeria, we have a clear case of how a president can cause division in a nation. What exactly was Donald Trump's sin?

His utterance, generally the words of a president are powerful, not to talk of the US President. US has always been divide along political line but not this bad. Trump has us his mouth to increase the division.

Trump speaks without thinking, he's Abit similar to buhari but US citizen are not as cool as Nigeria.

nwaanambra1:
trump has a very solid support base from the people that actually matters in American Politics - THE WHITE SUPREMACISTS.


he will have a landslide victory in this election and will try to change the American constitution to accommodate his third term.

The only way Trump is winning is with the electoral college.
If Trump couldn't have a landslide Victory during the last election, then there's no why he can have a landslide Victory now.

Dminister:



Okay, I am replying to this very late because I am a very busy person. I expected someone to quote me, but, I didn't have the chance to check and reply the same time.


I hope you digested your quotes very well before you posted your conclusions. As for your understanding, I gave an example, as in an illustrations why BSC and HND can't be rated the same. There is no where I mentioned I have five credit passes.
I have seen the reason why many polytechnic graduates lack understanding a simple theory.

For the fact that you have already made your conclusions, I expect you to place a clause on the subject matter that I am better than you.
Did you ask yourself why our educational system requires one to have minimum of five credit passes per university's entry requirements and why the polytechnics entry requirements is minimum of four credit passes?

You were aware of the discrepancy before you chose to get HND, Why are you competing with BSC holders and protesting for equality? This is just a feeling of inferiority. It is absolutely not normal.
You wanted HND to protest for BSC and HND equality later? This is just an example of students trying to pass exam through the backdoor.

There is always a scale of preference. You either choose the first one or the last one, you can as well have both results. You guys should stop trying to force what can never be. If you wants BSC you can go get it. Why disturbing the polity? The system is filled with too many problems already.

It would be unfair to be expecting university Diploma holders to start protesting for Diploma and HND equality too.

I want you to know 6 credit passes is still average result considering five credit passes a poor result.

I would rather have an HND from PTI than a BSC from most Nigeria university honestly.

quentin06:
Sorry the HND system didnt teach you use of English.

An artisan doesn't have a college degree, give an artisan a degree he as good as any graduate.

BTW there is nothing wrong with artisans, most of them own businesses and employ graduates like you.
Many of your female colleagues open their legs wide for artisans than they do for PhD blokes.

I didn't say there's anything wrong with artisans but u are mistaking the role of hnd for artisans, I was only trying to correct you.

What u said made absolutely no sense to what I said.

My point what that BSC design while hnd build what the bsc has design not repair.

Am not trying to belittle anyone here, I don't think I even insulted u in my post.

Okoeshin:
As Kano always been like this or the media just started paying attention to them. Like it has been in the news much lately

It's has always been like this, infact rape is very common in the north. But they don't read it on the news.

I served in one local government in the north and heard of more the 6 rape cases n some attempted rape cases in just in one yr.

quentin06:
These guys are missing it, monotechnics and polytechnics were designed to bridge the nations technical gap, they were not intended to sit on desks and compete with university graduates.

Blame the emphasis on certificates rather than competence for this problem.

If every school becomes a university who will fix our cars, roads, man our tech drive?

Foreigners from other countries who education is less than our HND.

We must learn to prioritize competence and practical knowledge over certificates and certification.

An expert is an expert because they know their onions not because of certificates and membership to some bogus association that just collects membership fees and does nothing to improve competence of its members.

The proliferation of many so called professional bodies in the country proves this.

All talk and no do.

You are so wrong, u have no idea, hnd holders are technologist not artisans.

When the degree guys do the theorical design, the hnd guys are the ones that check if the design is actually practicable n also build the design.
Hnd holder are not made to repair but build. But in Nigeria today no one design no one build.

Secondly there's really no need for hnd. We have universities of technology which teach exactly what is been taught in polytechnic and they award btech.

So the hnd thing should just be scrape, it's really of no use.

[color=#550000][/color] I won't say a word

U are not obliged to say a word

obonujoker:
If God does not exist, then why are you alive??

If god exist then why are lots of people dead, I lost a friend last month, young guy in his 30s. If god is responsible for people being alive then who is responsible for people being death.

Please if u want to have this argument with me, say something reasonable.

NobleSeed:
bro check here there's something for you (psalm14:1)

Absolutely nothing

NobleSeed:
Hmm 80 million What!!!
Op Abeg allow God use you for once na

God does not exist

Junior66:
HND is only equal to an associate degree. An associate degree is less than a full degree and also enjoys what you guys love to call 'discrimination' in Nigeria. Abeg no come here de lie for us.

Nope, u are absolutely wrong, US use the number of years and number if courses study to determine if your result is a degree or associate degree.

The US regard 5yrs for any degree, they will never equate ur 5yrs hnd to 2yrs associate degree.

The problem with Nigeria hnd and bsc in the use has to to with courses. I don't want to go into details but us treat hnd n bsc from Nigeria as thesame.

Infact US will regard a 5yrs hnd from Nigeria more than a 3yrs bsc from India.

Bagehot:
I would imagine that polytechnics are equivalent to community colleges, not universities in the U.S.

Nope, US regards polytechnic as universities.
E.g California polytechnic state university.

Polytechnic are thesame as universities in the US.

Polytechnic simply means an higher institution offering course in vocational subject, meaning it's more practical oriented. The certificate a polytechnic offer could be degree or associated degree.

In America, a polytechnic is regarded as a university.

U can check this out urself some universities in US are actually polytechnic. A polytechnic can award degree (bsc) too, so they consider polytechnic in Nigeria as universities too.

GrammarNazi1:
I can't believe you just asked this question. So it is only the number of years that determines equality.

In United States, they don't know what hnd is, so if u present and hnd result they simply evaluate it, and equate it to a bsc because of the number of yrs.

So your hnd or bsc from Nigeria is thesame thing in the US.

pheelhip:
We need something like this here in the west too

All military or force have the headquarters and schools in the north, from NDA to police academy to this army university. Even the airforce chief has proposed an airforce university in his home town in the north.

Oladimejjy:
Here in the North,the student don't even read at all.
Currently serving here and I have to write expo on the board every day of d exam!!!
They had English yesterday, I don't even bother to go.

The north is another story, I wrote waec for like 3 student at a time. That money saved my áss back then Sha because 19800 have already finish n month never end.
