Career › Re: After 2.2, He Wants To Start Again From O'level! by jpphilips(m): 10:00am On Jul 23, 2013
at 32, you no longer qualify for any trainee position.
will you foot the bills of your second missionary journey?
have you considered professional technical certifications?
with what you have already, you have qualified for NACE already, let alone other practical corrosion control opportunities.

i think you are a very big ignorant dude. your lack of knowledge is fuelling a disgruntled desire thinking that time waits for you.

like you said, your o level foundation was poor and same applies to the foundation of your commonsense.

the amount of money you have wasted in your academic sojourn is enough to make you in life.

like i said, you are just a big fool with an empty head, why did you wanna start with o level?

you should consider going back for a first school leaver's certiticate, elementary school to say the least.

[quote author=black_beau]A woman should never propose to a man because he will end up seeing you as the 'girl who didn't have the dignity to wait around till I asked for her hand in marriage'. Men in africa especially Nigeria,have a different psychology from those in other parts of the world.they want to chase you.robbing them of the chance to chase you makes them value you less. For instance,you would definitely place more value on something you searched for and bought than something which you picked from the street. Believe me,if a guy thinks that he would love to spend the rest of his life with you,he will propose to you.the mere fact that you are the one proposing means he doesn't want to marry you.[/quote]you know nothing about men, u ve spent most of ur days with juveniles in masculine appearance.

What drives a man is interest, i saw where you wrote 'chase' up there, i dey laugh!!

How many real men chase women these days?

All he needs is to pass you a note in the restaurant that he likes you and will like to call you, its upto you give him your contact, when you dont, he assumes you are off the market and he walks away.

You know why? Because he is busy, there is work to do, all those evening visitors and sugar coated tom boys, are just as jobless as their actions.

Real men quite the chase a long time cos there are lots of deals to close.

Hang out with real men so you will have a change of mindset.

Nb: mind you that after refusing him ur contact and he jets out in his SUV, the real you will always whisper to ur ears

''baby, you fuucckkeedd up''

Nija gals are wiser than that sh!!t you wrote up there.

Family › Re: Should A Woman Ever Propose To A Man? by jpphilips(m):
PureOhio: While I think it’s perfectly fine for a woman to bring up the subject of marriage, and highly advisable for a couple to discuss the topic of marriage before a proposal, I want to reiterate that it is the man’s duty to get down on one knee and ask for your hand in marriage.

Ladies, don’t believe any hype that a man tries to sell you about us being “equals” and how “a woman can propose too.” A real man wants the honor of getting down on his knee and asking his woman to marry him. A real man does not want you to take that away from him.

https://cdn.madamenoire.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/propose-378x350.jpg

With all that being stated, I now want to ask all you ladies a couple questions:

Do you think there’s anything wrong with a woman proposing to a man?

Would you ever propose to your boyfriend if he wasn’t taking the initiative to propose to you?
where is the honor in kneeling down to beg someone to accept the fact that you will provide for her the rest of her life?

I dont need to beg you to accept salvation, all i need to tell u is; '' get ready we are seeing your parents this weekend, you will know when we get there''

at what stage in life should men be at the recieving end of such magnanimity or are we sub humans?

Is it a crime for a woman to kneel down and beg the man to stop searching while she takes up the mantle of providing for the family, in an event where the man lost his job?


Where do we get this pack of double standards as social norms? Foreign culture? What happened to ours?

The last time i checked, the only proposal acceptable by tradition is taking your elder brother, uncle, or father to the girl's parents telling them that you have come to pluck a ripe apple from his vine yard,
anything short of the above is foreign and should stay with the foreigners.

Kneeling down to propose is for poor men who cannot actually take care of a woman or they wanna marry someone who will equally contribute to his own well being and survival.

If your woman knows you are capable, she will ask you to go see her father, proposed or not before you change your mind.


ladies of the world,

We have not evolved.

DANGOTEONE: Nothing extraordinary as most Nigerians will do better if given the same opportunity. Peace!
dont mind these myopic plummels, her father is a king as such they are royals, how many Nigerians have that opportunity?

Talking about havard, with her fat degree and container loads of CV's in two administrations, the chasm between the upper and lower class widened, is that an achievement behooving a havard product?

What has she done in our economy that will make the middle class to send their kids to havard same opportunity she got?

Bigotry and petit mediocrity will send this country to its grave.

At the same time she was havardizing and extorting the obj administration via debt relief, prof chukwuma soludo, our own 'lion' class of 84', from our backyard UNN struck a chord that brought the middle class back to life.
Where was her havard when soludo's UNN certificate was stimulating the Nigerian economy?

How many Nigerians benefitted from her debt relief policy and how?
Of course her brother swindled obj of 15 percect of 16billion usd, reason obj threw her out.
Who is fooling who? Only Nigerians will be impressed with a mediocre and over praised iweala.

Where was her havard kleenex when soludo was creating jobs and stimulating the stock market?

The redenomination our UNN soludo suggested to our brain dead senators years back is the monetry fibre the ghananians are thriving on.

The naira has been so weak since she assumed office and nothing is done abt it, yet the same people at the recieving end of the agony are the ones eulogizing her failure, re we cursed?


Today, iweala with her havard sand paper, mis calculated and removed subsidy, at the time, her havard pampers was telling her its gonna be a single digit inflation, into the second quarter same year, world bank brought to her notice a 2 digit inflation and she still hasnt buried her face in shame.

Most Nigerians are foooools, havard my ccuunntt.

However, I just can't get my head around the number of people viewing this thread, Nigerians and you lot's innate over-gratification of paper qualifications.

Their mum graduated magna cum laude from the same Harvard and held an impressive portfolio at World Bank, but she has been a failure of epic proportions at transferring all that over-bloated CV into real life situations, despite being in-charge of the country's finances for more than 10 years combined now. I just hope they're different from their mum.

It's high time you lot started gratifying shakers and problem solvers, and not just having low self-esteem about paper qualifications. undecided undecided[/quote]oh! Preach, Nigerians are so freaking blind, go to big companies and see SSCE men that are retained for their experience and problem solving abilities and here we are eulogizing a fat CV with zero service record.

[quote author=Flawless~diva]Chai, you have a typical Nigerian mentality.
It's easier to get into Absu medical school, try unilag or UI and see if you'll enter. Like the person whom you earlier quoted, it's about one's abilities not necessarily money or academic qualities(tho is part). One can be admitted into Harvard and obtain some form of financial Aid. There's nothing like if its education, or Engineering. You have not heard of Harvard business, medical or law school eh.
This comparison you brought up is not necessary. None of them studied Engineering, i'm sure they would have gone to the very best.[/quote]how much does it cost to get an engineering degree from havard and what financial aid is available for a Nigerian Immigrant?

tsmack: I truly fear for this nation!

Despite the amount of time some people spend on the internet, they still spew their ignorance (with pride) all over the place. And these are supposed to be the leaders of tomorrow?

You should at least do yourself the justice of googling up Harvard before embarrassing your family and country on the social media.

In case you don’t know, Harvard is not about money. It is about ability!

You need to prove BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT that you belong to the top strata of achievers - irrespective of your race and age - before you are accepted into the school. Besides, most people use STUDENT LOANS to fund their studies. It is almost automatic.

Harvard is NEVER about money!

Ngozi's children should be celebrated because gaining admission into such a school is an achievement on its own. Why do you think some Companies only employ graduates from Harvard?

Or have you ever heard of an Harvard graduate being “unwillingly” jobless? I don’t think it’s possible!

Invest in your life by spending time reading about value adding stuff. You don’t have to play the internet idiot; leave that to the others.

God bless Nigeria!
shut up young man, who will give you a student loan to study in havard when you just arrived with a student visa as a Nigerian immigrant?

Who will guarantee that loan?
Immigrants pay cash at havard nothing more, talking about brains,

you make me laugh, the real brains in Nigeria are the freaking nobody's. You may be suprised that your driver may turn out to be smarter than you.

Havard for a Nigerian in Nigeria is about the money first before anything.

NeoTesla: Very impressive. It takes brains and diligence to get into Harvard and survive there. Kudos to the parents who taught all four kids the value of hard work.
brains to study social studies and American literature? You guys need help, rightly put, Ngozi could afford it hence her kids being there, wots the fuss?

The real brains that can pass through havard with distinction cannot afford it, thanks to havard Ngozi's econo mic policies.


my mechanic did not see the four walls of a school, not even elementary school yet he can replace one gear box for another, all he did was sit in the workshop with mechanical engineers for years and voila! He is good to go.


now that the iwealas have harvardaised their destiny, does it guarantee a better economy for Nigerians?


Do you seriously think iweala is doing great for us with our level of poverty, unemployment and other social vices? For a harvard trained bizzaga who is saddled with the responsibility of piloting our affairs?

Brother, i prefer a buhari who passed through our local millitary academy but understood the need to keep inflation below 5% while sending IMF and world bank packing.

OR

our infamous sani abacha who studied at the obscure school of assasins but understood the need to keep inflation below 8%.

You guys enjoy being fooled.

30kva is too small for airport and its environs as reported, however, im certain that the olodo reporter has confused some units up there.

a 30kva power unit doesnt qualify as a plant but a backup generator.

Simply put, Oando wants to purchase Gas generators for two airports in Nigeria.

Is the reporter trying to insinuate that every Nigerian who has a 30kva gen set, has an IPP at home?

If south africans are not threatened by Nigeri's military power, then tell me why whenever there's a thread about Nigerian military you people start to bring in SANDF.

You are the one that needs education.

South africa needs to redeem itself after you were disgraced in CAR by rag tag rebels that don't even have on helicopter before you can think of taking on Nigeria.

If militaries were to be ranked by experience and battles won, south africa will not even rank close to top 7.

chris365: you are just ranting rubbish here. To think that Nigeria will engage your helicopters with tanks is hilarious. (we have better as our main battle tanks anyway)

first of all you'll need a place to launch your helicopters from, and then bypass our radars (since they are not stealth). Before then our satelites have picked your locations and move our AAA or SAMs to position to take out you helicopters.

And please don't talk about your grippen jets cos you don't have an aircraft carrier to move them close to our boarders.

Libya was rated second best because of hardware but were defeated by Chad. Which makes me question the ranking methods.

And to use a war of Libya against NATO and inside rebels(including defected generals and soldiers) as an example only exposes your S.TUPIDITY.
Libya was never a military power, they were like the Saudis that have many weapons but unqualified manpower.
It is mentality like yours that your generals used to send your boys to CAR. And see how it turned out.

Where were your designer hardware when seleka chased your troops out of CAR and took over their hardware for you to never return?

SA had a military during the apartheid regime and even at that they never won any war.

SANDF of today is a big joke with few bright generals and ex militants.

http://www.history.com/topics/arms-race

there are more references,but im in a hurry right now,just make a search on Google.
The US and Japan had been in a state of mutual suspicion and Preparedness Years before Pearl Harbor,if not so?how do you think that the US was able to decisively trash Japan as quickly as it did,the US was surprised by the attack on Pearl Harbor,not the Attack in itself.
Up there you pasted both countries were on an arms race which they halted in 1921 according to you, nearly Two decades before the attack and ur grey matter interpreted it as readiness on the side of the US?

So because Naija bought arms in 1968 means they are ready for an invasion in 1998?

Just like obasanjo bought arms in 2006 automatically means we are ready for an invasion in 2026?

Thank God i dont think like you because even the cricket in my home knows that the pearl habor attack was a suprise attack.
