lol

We use SUVs to swim in it.

Timely info. Istanbul is on my list for travel before end of this year or first quarter of next year insha Allah.

Japhet31:
Without a deeper thought, one may be conclude that you were being ethnic about the matter whereas you were only saying to note the intra-tribal nature of this fracas.

I have always said it that a businessman's first loyalty is to profit. Things such as ethnicity, blood relation etc all come after profit.

Was surprised they couldn't get this simple point.

sapientia:
This coming from no other person but you is shameful.

Hacked acct?

Nothing hacked. I have a personal resolve to disabuse people of the mindset of crying ethnic victimization for everything. This news reinforces it.

Sleevia:
I am not quarreling with you. I just had to point out that your POV on this thread is entirely irrelevant and unrelated.

It is best suited for when what you opined resurface.

Deal with the issue on ground and call it what it is. Those are people's jobs on the line because of the decommissioning, fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters who are breadwinners of their family will be affected.

School fees will not be paid, house rent will not be paid food will vanish from tables..

Why hasn't Dangote's cement been shut down for all the killings by his trucks?

I will begin to take most of you learned Nigerians serious when you start applying conscientious commentaries in your discourse. Until then, have a nice day.

I have a longstanding personal resolve to fight the tendency of Nigerians to introduce tribal slants to business disagreements between people of different tribes. The news advances the arguments I have always made. I have the right to use it.

You are not the one to tell me the angle to choose to comment in a piece of news.

Interestingly, I'm usually very casual with these applications. Never submitted mybank statements. In fact this year? I didnt even put official company sponsor letter that I used to attach in the past, just a printout of my email to my CFO in London office that I need to come to the UK and his response with "approved".

Passport picked up. 2 years multiple entry visa granted.

100% visa issuance record continues

Sleevia:
I read your comment on Facebook on this issue.

When you wanna talk next time, be bold enough to mention the name of the people.

Instead of attending to issue on ground, which is a clear attack from someone like Dangote, a move that characterize his brand of entrepreneurship... A man who can't fair healthily under intense competition, which will also cause unemployment, you choose to try play ethnic politics again.


Doesn't this confirm what was said about Ibeto?
Since Ibeto is out of the way, BUA now his target.

I am igbo by the way if you must know. We don't give a fork about what most of you think.

Be bold enough to comment with your real name on my Facebook wall.

Dreambeat:
I have always known you to be an old member of this forum and never saw you as a kid.Alas I was wrong.Never knew you were a bigot.Its shame that someone like you could make a comment like this.Please don’t let hate becloud your sense of reasoning.Nuff said!

lol. They have started. I have always been an advocate of common sense. This event reinforces an argument I have always made, even on the pages of newspaper, that at such level in business there is nothing like ethnic victimization. GTB vs Innoson had no ethnic undertone, it was purely business disgreement like this one. I will not relent in driving home that point with any relevant event that reinforces it.

rman:
Is this priority service?

No. Regular

This is a fight between Hausa businessman and Hausa woman-led NPA. Imagine if the businessman were from a certain part of Nigeria, I can bet there would have been cry of ethnic victimization.

ornicus:
It's a lie! Jarus has exited last minute.com!

Lol. Cant believe it myself.

oluwasegun007:
That's their choice...

Why not let's look inward.

We have so many ororo nad Messi littered around the country,

But the system is too lazy to identify them..

If you want the country Jersey, you must wear it with pride.

I wish them the best.

Many Tammy Abrahams, maybe. Not many ororo or Messi. If you're as good as Messi or has potential to be, you will be found even if you live in the remotest village.

Taku555:
RIP man! I still remember how I trekked for more than 6 kilometers just to watch Holland 2005

I was crying with one eye for the loss of a step mum and using the other eye to watch Nigeria vs Holland match in that tournament at the mourning room.

LUGER:
jarus are you the same guy that works in a radio station in Delta State?

No. Never been to Delta state.

GOFRONT:


Last time, It was about the Oldest Gorilla who passed away in UNN....And now a 344 year old Toroise......

Only when they die, That's when we hear about their existence....

I saw a documentary on this tortoise few years ago.

So there is another governor bearing Yahaya in Nigeria

Acing the GRE/GMAT is the most important part of a successful application to graduate schools in the US and to some schools in Canada. Application letters, undergraduate GPA, and letters of recommendation all matter but not nearly as much as the GRE or GMAT score.

As small as the GRE/GMAT registration fee may appear, it is observed that many Nigerians still struggle to be able to afford it.

In light of this, Dr. Michael Taiwo, a US-based Nigerian engineer is instituting a support for Nigerians wishing to study in those two countries.

The support

- Payment of registration fees for two candidates for GRE and one candidate for GMAT
- Mentoring

Eligibility

The scholarship award is open to final year students in Universities in Nigeria as well as recent graduates (who graduated not earlier than 2013)
Candidate must have graduated with a CGPA of 4.0 in a 5-point system (or equivalent CGPA if not based on a 5-point scale) or, in the case of final year students, have such CGPA as at end of the penultimate year.

Application

Interested candidates should send an email to jarushub@gmail.com with the following information:

- Email subject: Application for Michael Taiwo Scholarship (GRE or GMAT as applicable)
- Name
- School
- Course of study
- Year of graduation
- CGPA
- Short note (not more than 10 lines) on why you want your registration for the exam financed

Application closes 15 October 2019.

Please note that shortlisted candidates will be invited for a test to hold in Lagos in the last week of October 2019.

Jarus so this is how you dey oppress police.issokay oo.

lol. Make I no lie, the thing dey work like magic. In fact, in some estates where they have stop and search rules before entrance, you easily get passed without search.

No serious employer will tolerate that.

lol. No biggie. Many Nigerians don experience am.

I don experience the special search twice (Edinburgh, Scotland and Madina, Saudi). For the Saudi one, I even went through special scanner sef. I never even shook - was sure I be legit.

Common sight

Xenophobia

orunmila144:
what are ya building the house in some backwood part of the country ?

How's that your business?

Or you know where my mum lives?

LOL.

I can spend N600K on phone but not now. The opportunity cost at this moment is high.

That's the amount I need to roof the house I'm doing for my mum.

Blue3k2:
Lol that's funny. The Saudi's know not to give Nigerians kind of freedom to enter the country. They dont want a migrant crisis on their hands. Just do your government sponsored pilgrimage then go home.

Less than 5% of pilgrims are sponsored by government.

Yeecar:
Am impressed...
Jazakalahu airan
How can one relate with his companion Jin?

It is forbidden to relate with any form of Jinn (except when carrying out exorcism)

ornicus:
Where is Jarus

lol

My topic abi.

I don show before, just came out of the thread.

OP is a little too technical and I know many people will struggle to understand.
