These footballers especially....

You must be a proud brat.. As of now MTN foundation scholarship is the highest paying at 200,000 per session. NLNG is 100k and shell is 75k, so you need to tell me how you came up with such inflated figures. BTW you are not supposed to be in more than one scholarship. What's your full name?

Please a client contacted me to move his WordPress site from MTN host to a better hosting company since the MTN host was always giving him problem. I bought a hosting space from Godaddy, but on requesting for domain transfer an ID was sent to the admin email address of MTN (admin@mtnbusiness.com.ng). I have called MTN several times to help me with the ID since I need it to authorize the transfer, but it seems they are unwilling to help.I am now stuck with either allowing the domain to expire or going for a new one altogether. Any help?

So Seun you are planning on something big like this and you refused to spill the beans here in Nairaland. Anyway, its long overdue. Kudos to you Seun.

Brimmie: Thank You Very Much!

Just like our Politicians, our Lecturers are bunch of Greedy Old Folks and Perverts! After failing Students (female) and asking them to Pay with their body, they still want more money to buy beer.

There was a seminar that was held in ma dept (FUTA) few months ago, a Man came with his Wife from UK to lecture us. He rubbished the way they Lecture us. He lectured our so called PHd Holders and i couldnt believe it when they were clapping for this man.

Practically, these Lecturers are Dumb!! A Lecturer taking a Photography Course that couldnt Operate An Analog Camera.

And to our Politicians for turning deaf-ear to ASUU matter, Una Papa o!!!

You just showed us how dumb you are. If your lecturers at FUTA are dumb, my at FUTO are definitely not.

BTW if you are not comfortable with education in Nigeria, why not travel oversea. Your mates are their making 5.0 CGPA and you are here ranting thrash. Get a life dude

Please forgive me for the format of the post above. I am posting with my phone. I will edit and restructure when I get a PC.

I'm inclined to write on this issue not because
I support underage marriage but because
at times it is neccessary to correct some
positions which are ignorantly held by
some people. The Major problem we have
in this country is the speed at which we
comment on issues that we have no
knowledge of. I watched the senate
proceedings few days ago where the
senate voted on the constitutional
amendment. Midway into the proceedings,
the Senate president asked the senate to
vote for or against the removal of section
29(4)b of the 1999 constitution as
amended. For the purpose of those who
are not conversant with the constitution, I
will reproduce the said clause beginning
from Section 4(a)...Section 4(a) says "full
age means the age of eighteen years and
above".......section 4(b) says "any woman
who is married shall be deemed of full
age". Now the amendment as submitted
by the joint committee on constitutional
amendment was geared towards deleting
section 4(b). When the question was put
to vote, majority of the senators (more
than 2/3) voted for the removal of the
clause. However, Senator Yerima stood up
and posited that removing that clause will
offend islamic law. I must at this point say
that I'm not a muslim and I cannot confirm
or deny the veracity of that assertion by
Senator Yerima. However, due to the
pressure from Senator Yerima and Senator
Goje, the Senate president decided to take
a second vote on the issue. After the vote
was cast, majority of the senators voted
for its removal but unfortunately this
majority was not up to 73 as required by
the constitution. But as it is common with
Nigerians, the social media was agog with
the story that the senate has endorsed
underage marriage in Nigeria. Now my
question is ''how can we possibly say the
senate has endorsed underage marriage
when in actual fact that clause has been in
our constitution since 1999? The senate
actually voted for its removal but could
not ganer the required 2/3. It must be
noted that that same clause will still have
to pass the stringest test of the house of
representatives and the various houses of
assembly. How are we sure the house of
representatives will vote for it to be
retained? Lets assume the house of rep
and the various houses of assembly vote
for it to be retained, the germane question
here is whether that clause makes
underage marriage lawful in Nigeria when
interpreted literarily. My answer to this
question is No. The clause says "any
woman who is married shall be deemed to
be of full age" .what this means is that if a
five years old girl decides to get married,
she is deemed to be 18 years and above.
However, the clause does not in anyway
say that you can marry an underage girl
without her/her parents consent. What
this means is that if its true that islamic
law allows underage marriage like senator
Yerima posited, then you cannot question a
muslim who gives out his 5years old
daughter for marriage willingly. At this
rate, what we should concentrate on is
making efforts to enlighten our people
most especially those in the north (no
offence meant) against the dangers of early
marriage rather than going to the public to
pass half baked information. Finally I want
those promoting this senate and underage
story to take a look at section 29(4)b of
the 1999 constitution as amended so that
they can criticise constructively. That
notwitstanding, we must ask our senators
why they voted against people oriented
amendments like Local Government
Autonomy. God bless Nigeria.

Nice one Mod. A little advice to Nigerian students; instead of sitting down in your house and grumble about ASUU and FG, make yourself productive. Look for something doing, it might just be that opportunity that will propel you into something big. Every disappointment is a blessing in disguise. Have a positive attitude and I bet you wont regret it when the strike is finally called off

Admin, please remove this post to avoid misconception.
Many might not be opportuned to read this post to the end and the rumour might spread to others and it would be a post from our notable nairaland
thanks

Does today look like April 1st?
