irunooboo:
What is the hype with this stark illiterate bread seller that everyone seems to be obsessed with She will and will always remain a stark illiterate who is known for hawking Agege bread. I hope she is saving enough money to buy enough agege breads when her fake fame diminishes? undecided I give her 2 years she will be back to hawking bread. Bloody ugly stark illiterate dullard who cant even say a word in English. Mtcheeew angry angry

My dead Hate is just an unnecessary drain of energy. When people achieve something rejoice with them for u never know how your help may come. YOU said when her fake fame disappears she will be back to hawking bread but remember she now has a house on the island, which could be worth millions of naira. Even if she does not work again, that is enough to sustain for life if she is smart. Please life is too short to be hating PLEASE.

So what field is Dada in?

Is 5.0 cgpa now a contribution to his field of philosophy?

layla129:

You should go and ask the clueless Jona that gave them the award. We can't continue making mistakes...we should learn from these developed countries we always want to run to.

Go and ask what Rowan Atkinson aka Mr bean did to humanity to deserve an OBE from the queen. Its abt contribution in whatever form in your field.

Aki and Pawpaw got national awards but a fellow with a real achievemient shouldn't?

Aki n paw paw have contributed far more than a 5.0 paper certificate. Their contribution to d entertainment industry in Nigeria is great and has brought so much joy to millions of Africans n beyond.
Literature / Re: I Self-Published A Book! Thank You Nairaland by jostking: 12:29pm On Mar 20, 2016
Congrats NSG, you did one of the hardest thing many Nigerian writers are failing to do. The old saying Nigerians don't read is just nonsensical. If you want to make it as a writer YOU MUST FIRST OF ALL BUILD YOUR AUDIENCE in what ever form u can. But please reduce the price to N1000, N3000 is about $10 is way to pricey for a new author. Now start working on your next series. Congrats once again. A great fan.
Programming / Re: Is It A Wise Choice To Start Learning Java by jostking: 5:20am On Mar 18, 2016
Thank you very much asalimpo, you have spoken so much. I must commend your effort in explaining this thoroughly.

You have said it all, discipline and passion is all that is needed. I have started learning but with tears but wouldn't give up even when its making lil sense. My goal is to be able to solve problems for people and be involved in challenging projects.

Thanks will love to connect with u better.skypeId: Sylking2.
Programming / Is It A Wise Choice To Start Learning Java by jostking: 8:39pm On Mar 17, 2016
Hi. This post is to all experienced java developers in the house. Please educate, advice and lecture me. I have always wanted to program but never really gotten my hands to it. Procrastination has been my greatest enemy. Now I want to devote a large proportion of my time learning java because I love the fact that it can run on any platform.

Please what are the opportunities for me here in Nigeria. I rarely see any openings for java developers, mostly php, JavaScript, python


Do you think I should continue. How long would it take me to be able to solve real time problems for people or should I say a mid-level java programar.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: 4 Lessons I Learned From Quitting My Job With No Back-up Plan by jostking: 12:12am On Feb 16, 2016
Hmm exactly what I did last year, quit my job for freelance writing; it was suicidal. My client cancelled the contract, before then transformer blew up and power was out for 2months, when they brought the light it was high voltage; destroyed my laptop. I suffered men. Thank God I was able to bounce back. The freelance world is unpredictable. I learnt the biggest lesson of my life in three month of depression.

B.Sc. Civil Engineering, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria


It is my greatest passion to solve some of the greatest infrastructural problems facing the country and that is why I have decide to study engineering, which to me is a solution to Nigeria's quest for development.


I do not compromise on professional ethics as such you can count on my integrity and sound practice. I also understand that the importance of duty and hierarchy in the field and how negligence can destroy a good work.


I seek for work opportunity from well meaning Nigerians so as to actualize my dreams and contribute to the growth of engineering. I am also open to any training where required

My email is civilengineernigeria@yahoo.com, my no is 07035616537 and I reside in Lagos but can work anywhere. I will be willing to discuss how my abilities may be best employed by your firm.

its going to be fine. dont loose hope when you are almost at the finish line.

Let me tell you my most guaranteed form of getting a job;

1. Do away with all those application for now
1. settle down and learn a useful skill in the workplace and become an expert in it. Give yourself say 4 months of dedicated practice
2. Approach the company and tell them how you can add value to them
At this point you are most respected than when you compete with thousands of graduates.

Please Nigerians run away from employers like these, they are nothing but slave masters. How can you tell someone to work for you for two months without pay in a country like Nigeria. Later we will blame the Indians and Lebanese, when we are the biggest culprit. No money, no/low spending, weak economy, this is what you will be causing when you refuse to pay for services rendered. Useless website!
