Make a rational contribution to a discourse instead of raining abuses and casting aspersions on exalted personalities. Remember people of South West are not docile to accommodate unreasonable rants and inglorious attitudes characterising purveyors of bad information.

Having watched this video, it now dawns on me that there is no any responsible governor in this country. This is just a wickedness!!!
Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Employment Test: 1+1=? Justify Your Assertion by idike: 11:04pm On Sep 15, 2013
The answer to that question is very simple. The interviewers were trying to test the knowledge of the interviewee based on the concept of ''SYNERGY''. In business organisation, it is expected that 1+1=3. It means the effect of two variables would have a profound influence than a variable that is isolated. This concept can be applied to elucidate the theory of division of labour, teamwork, separation of power, etc.

Please don't nail me, i am just learning.

Family / Re: Raising A Child To Speak English In Nigeria: Is It Proper? by idike: 3:11pm On May 06, 2013
nene1: Hello all,

I think it is equally important for the child to learn both languages. Like another poster said, English is the commercial language of the world and most popular with French 2nd. For almost any job, unless you live in a country where English is not the official language, you need to know English. It is very useful worldwide. What I plan on doing when I get married and start a family is teach my child both. Maybe my husband will speak English to our children when they are young and I will speak to them in our native language. When they begin school and get a chance to speak English everyday with their peers, then we will transition to speaking our native language completely in our home. If my husband happens to be from another ethnic group, we will begin with English until the child begins school. Then we will both begin to speak in our diff native languages to the kids. I think when they are very young is the best time to each them English and their native language. They absorb everything better then.

One can be very well versed in your language and culture while at the same time being modern. You can be fluent in many languages. As the world is becoming more globalized, it helps to learn many languages. I think for international use, knowing both English and French is very helpful.

You've said it all. I grew up in a village and i found speaking nice and correct English as an uphil task even till i completed my secondary school education. It took more than enough time to get myself acclamatized when i got admission into Polytechnic before proceeding to University. I, therefore, made up my mind to embrace English as a first language for my unborn children. Today my daughter is just 3 years and she speaks fluent English better than her dad and mum and even fathoms the local language and reacts when her mum and i communicate at home.

There is nothing bad in using English as a first language for your kids if you do not want them to lag behind among their peers. It is significant to expose them-kids to the modus operandi of English Language at their infant stage because the brain is sharp to accomondate as many languages as possible. Mind you the most widely spoken language in the world today is English. It is the language of communication and business. Guys from rural area should please make English as a first language for thier kids and other languages would be added unto it.
Politics / Re: South Africa Vs Nigeria: Which Is More Influential In Africa? by idike: 11:31am On Apr 04, 2013
South Africa is a member of BRICS
Nigeria a member of OPEC
Someone should do the comparison

The BRIC countries comprise Brazil,Russia, India,and China. South Africa, therefore, is not a member of BRIC. In terms of comparism Nigeria has a large market and this makes it more influential than SA, while SA has a cost advantage when it comes to technology and infrastructures development. Considering the rate at which both economies are growing, Nigeria has potential to overtake SA as Africa super power in some years to come.
Politics / Re: The African Economic Revolution by idike: 7:34pm On Apr 01, 2013
The reason why attention has been shifted to Africa-especially Nigeria is because of the plateuing growth and the saturation of the industrial triad and developed country markets. Since real GDP growth rate has been improving in some part of Africa countries in the last decade, firms in the developed world have seen Africa as destinations to attain market share and competitive advantage. The exodus of these firms could, therefore, translate to economic revolution in many of these countries where they establish presence. In Nigeria, apart from the economic indicator such as GDP growth rate, inflation rate, foreign trade etc., the intimidating population and the growing number of middle-income level could also facilitate Nigeria to becoming a super power in the next 10 years.
One the factor that would acelerate foreign direct investment in Nigeria would be the accessibilty to cheap labour. Manufacturing fims in the developed economies are now looking for environment to obtain economies of scale and scope through access to cheap labour. Considering the labour market in Nigeria which is characterised with crop of unemployed graduates and underemployed individuals, the country is therefore a veritable source of harnessing cheap labour for most of manufacturing firms. These are some of the reasons why Africa countries are projected as supeer power in the next 10 to 20 years. This is just my own idea!!!
