ziccoit: About "Money isn't made out of paper it is made out of cotton wool" is not true for Nigerian money which is made out of polythene bag.

Ugoh11: I am utterly amazed at the level of reasonin on ds thread of wot wud b nigerians youth...i expect dat in all ur analysis it wud have bin more objectv dan subjectv...
1,i hear some pips say if ibos vote in for GEJ he is assured,my questn is r d ibos fairin any betr undr ds regime..we have d highest cutoff marks at both secondary nd tertiary level to gain admission dan any other tribe..ibos r d mediocres in civil service structures with most of them at low to mid levels..our states have not fared any betr from d federal point of view....except if d enugu intl airport is wot u feel is wot we deserv aftr 3budget cycles
2, our educatn sectr nd health sector has more or less dwindled under GEJ...with d ministr o state for educTn leavin hs duty post to fite a gov hu in every respect has done well for hs people..
3..lastly my people dr r over 40million youths without jobs out of whch 23million have tertiary education..
4..our foreign reserves r depletin wen crude oil prices r increasin nd d bkip tellin us our GDP is risin... Well if u must knw.. Our GDP is more of a reflectn of d growth of one biz man..Aliko Dangote not an expressn of GROWTH as d wuf have us bliv
IN ALL of ds wot am i sayin... I expect us as learned individuals to look byound etnicity nd phony politics to actualy concisely examinin d situatn with a view to holdin our present leaders responsible or support one with credibility nd vision cos evidently GEJ lacks One

My Opinion: Abeg make una hold me o cus dis lafta fit make person jump for inside river unknowingly

Brokenbars: This sounds strange 2 me. 4 d past 7years, my man tels me he luvs me at least once a day. cals me at least 7 tyms a day wen we are not together i.e wen im in d ofice, market or visitin a friend. kiss me gudnyt, gudmornin every day & he's a nigerian.

zico2: This is a good motive. I pray it yield a good result. Youths have been sideline for a long time and it needs to stop. Imagine a situation where federal jobs meant for qualified graduates been sold at to political cronies at rate of 100k to 250k, nsitf and civil defence job for instance. For how long re we going to hold our peace. The time is here and something needs to be done. If you have time pls be there. Let the revolution start, we re not fighting for ourselves alone but for the unborn generation. Finally,IF THERE IS ANY POLITICAL CRONY THAT WISH TO DERAIL THIS THREAD,I PROPHESY THAT YOU WL NOT LIVE TO EAT THE FRUITS OF NIGERIA. So shall it be.

cdoffx: For those who do not understand. When the Arab spring was to start, it started on social networks however this is not going to be like the Arab spring because this association is will not tow the path of violence.
For those saying after getting unemployed why continue staying in the association. The meeting is where the name will be changed this is just to catch attention of all those concerned. It'll rather be something...Against Unemployment which will make it open for every Nigerian[entrepreneur.employed, rich or poor ] who wants to kick against unemployment now and for generations unborn to join.
What you people should understand is that this is not just unemployment fight but equally industrial revolution as its one of the key to solving unemployment.
God bless Nigeria.

ecolime: Woww... I like this.
The only challenge I see here is continuity. Most key members will opt out immediately they get a good job. I just pray it lasts. Nice initiative Ehis. Keep it up

ehixking: It all started like a joke on nairaland when a post went viral about graduates coming together to form an association or movement to stop unemployment. Most people saw the idea as a very welcomed initiative that will go a long way in influencing governments policies to create a place for unemployed graduates in the National budget.

Graduates have been sidelined for years in Nigeria,jobs are not forthcoming and graduates find refuge in obtaining masters forms while some depend on their parents for daily bread and recharge card. Nigerian graduates play PS2 better than their counter parts in other countries yet some people speak about been entrepreneurs- but where can we find the enabling environment. Take for example a graduate of Agriculture that lived in Lagos all his life wants to start a poultry farm. Most definitely land would be in his feasibility study in which the land use act of 1978 is the first disadvantage, he needs funds-where would he get it, roads to transport from lagos to other point of sale are bad, electricity to power the farm ..nothing to write home about, funds in case of disease outbreak like gomboro or Newcastle disease " nba"

So how can he manage? Should a graduate start small buy rearing 5 chicken, 2goats, 1 sheep....in whose compound? Has he himself even eaten today(chance for Baba landlord to throw your things away)

In the light of these interested graduates has been mobilised from various parts of the Nation to hold the first general meeting in lagos

Venue.---Unilags sport centre
Time.--9 AM prompt
Date...saturday 7th of september

To discuss the way forward to scrap the menace of unemployment
This is an open invitation to the general public and anybody that would like to support morally or any other way you can

Easyfren: Guiness stout, guiness malt both (1759), cement- can't tell exactly which product. 1st cement block house was built in Nigeria in 1875. Western education- Hope Waddel Training Institute (1894).

Penboy: Pawpaw, groundnut, cassava, hide and skin etc. These are product from the soil and animals respectively. They should be more than 100years old. Even before our colonial masters came.

naijacutee: Great point! i'm really learning from your post. PZ Cussons apparently came to Nigeria in 1899 as just PZ (Paterson Zochonis), and thus has been in Nigeria for over 100 years!. Their history is on their website : http://www.pzcussonsng.com/content/our-history





No comment. There's no point. (This is how to build your nation. your politicians don't owe you sh1t, either).

chipet: Oga go sleep! You no get talk!!! How can someone be looking for products that have lasted for 100yrs in Nigeria when Nigeria is only 53yrs old?

PalmTree: Product? No, but First Bank as a brand has been around for over a century.

naijacutee: This is Nigerian Politican behaviour on a small scale. Someone said if you remove 100 politicians and replace with 100 random Nigerians, Nigeria will still remain the same. People complain that it's the people at the top, when we (Nigerians) are the problem. Someone gets a contract to build roads and the default attitude is "What's in it for me?". Someone asks a question on a forum and the default attitude is "What's in it for me?". Nigerians have no right to insult politicians because they would do exactly the same in their position, as they share exactly the same thinking. Better to say nothing.

Back to the question: Lever Brothers (Now Unilever ) are a pretty old brand in Nigeria, but I don't think their products have been around for 100 years, as the British started bringing these companies in a few years after amalgamation, 99 years ago.

Old brands in Nigeria (at least 50 years old) are ones like Blue Band, Lux, Star beer, Bata, Leventis, Bic. I'll put some more down if I remember.

omonnakoda: Fani Kayode is a great writer and it is impossible to read too much of him

prettyify: Don't get me wrong, she is strong for coming out to tell the world the truth. But is enough, we have noticed u enough. If you want God's forgiveness, pray in your heart and not for everyone to see. What does she really want? The only Advice i will give her is to pray to God Truely and leave the rest for Him. God knows what do do to him not you (dats if ur saying the truth). The worst of it all he didnt even force you Find a way to find peace and not putting it on the media, it will only make things worst for you

victorv12: Abortion should be legalized. If it's legalized we won't be having all those bastard militants, ritual killers and crazy Nigeria politicians that litters every nook and cranny of our country cursing confusion.

Assuming it was legalized way back, Nigeria won't be having most of the problems we're having now. Abortion should be part of the family planning in our country. We really need abortion clinics in every borough and streets for the next coming generation of these bastards! We must be fully prepared before they bring them into this world.

Because presently, as a country, we don't have the social amenities to sustain the citizens presently not to talk about a girl that mistakenly got herself pregnant or doesn't want to raise a child and was being forced by her family to born it. If such a child is forced to be delivered, mentally, that child can't be sane. The moment you're being forced into this world and not properly groomed by your parents, and installing discipline and respect for the rule of law, all you bring from your mothers womb is anarchy!!

So I think such a child is rather being terminated than to bring destruction into this world in the first place!

infonubia: I attend Dominion International Center

manny4life: Those asking him to increase his income, if you cannot manage $100, what makes you believe he will manage $1,000? Management is key, this is what separates the U.S. and China today. China is a saving economy no matter how small their citizens earn while U.S. is a spending/credit economy no matter how big their average earners are and Nigeria is gradually copying their template.

actoor: Beyond insurance investment.
I stand to be corrected, ask any question base on insurance/assurance investment, ill state reason why its remain the best of investment for every mankind.

texaco1: oga this is my advise to u ,if u have a a regular job .then use ur money to purchase properties.like land .it will alway appreciate .

JOXY: A very good and reliable customer of my company is into supply biz with a reputable company. 3 weeks ago I invested N250k and I got 5% of that in 3 weeks which I have re-invested. If you have interest let me know.

smartmom: They probably knew it was too late for any help and didnt want the stigma of having a patient die in their premises.

Such a sad thing for any parent to verbally and emotionally abuse a child. Children should have above all things the unconditional love and acceptance of their parents. I bet mama kemi will regret all the days of her life.

Olufhemy: She's got it all,
The SMILES......
The BEAUTY....
...If at all she's poor there,then train her!!!!
