Hope Kogi State is exempt?

etibaba:
Rivers and Bayelsa state have really funny names and surnames sha. Heineken, lyon, Manager, Suffernomore, Inspector, Advantage, not forgetting the chairman of a political party "Secondus".

Where I served in Taraba also has people bearing more hilarious names. I have seen names like Clever, Honest, Costly, Mechanic, Abstain, Adviser, Tailor, Calculator, Andrawus, Jepson, Artillary, Bethuel, Charisma, Commando, consman, Increase, Nice, Activities etc. I get shocked each time I see these names.

When I was your age, I already had my masters. I'm not even a Polytechnic graduate. Kids everywhere. So easy to spot one. Poly graduates are better than your Nigerian (public) university graduates including you

Mtcheeew. After marking masters exams scripts of some of your poly lecturers I don't think I should be arguing with you. If polytechnics are so good why do they employ BSc holders and why do they lecturers process for masters and PhD degrees?
There was this HOD of a department in a poly in Plateau State begging me to help upgrade his scores the other time. Hahahaha

SegFault:
Which dirty 168? Come on, commot for here. After una don settle finish una go come here dey look down on poly students. I am not a poly student but these university students dey vex person, after cheating your way through the system you come to feel boss. Nna ehm.

Yeah, because Poly graduates don't also cheat. They fell from Jupiter.

ibuildstuff:
In United States, they don't know what hnd is, so if u present and hnd result they simply evaluate it, and equate it to a bsc because of the number of yrs.

So your hnd or bsc from Nigeria is thesame thing in the US.

HND is only equal to an associate degree. An associate degree is less than a full degree and also enjoys what you guys love to call 'discrimination' in Nigeria. Abeg no come here de lie for us.

sbaks:
This you did to be accepted in the job society not that it was necessary (as per knowledge wise). Whenever you get to the field, you'll deliver and then it will look like "all thanks to UNN" where as you have that Polytechnic advantage which is what built you. Now tell me, what about the massive rest that didn't have the opportunity you have? This is what I'm saying. University system has lost it.
I get your point though

Says a poly graduate who was lectured by corps members with BSc and full time lecturers who graduated from the same universities he denigrates. Hahahaha

hinere:
University or Polytechnic....once the two have gone for NYSC. They are all GRADUATES

Graduates of COEs also served in the past, does that make us all the same?

Gabe427:
This is cool

venza not bad

But please what wrong with Inosson

I've literally never seen anyone with that beast
especially here in the North

Their vehicles are expensive, do not last, and parts are said to be both scarce and expensive.

In contrast, other cars are very cheap and more durable.

Pierocash:
This malnourished being a kidnapper?
Is it 500 500 hundred he collects as Ransome?

Malnourished ke? That's how a typical Fulani man looks no matter his wealth. The fat ones are usually mixed heritage. Check El Rufai, Buhari, Sanusi Lamido, etc

Nasarawa State should be up there. More than half of the people referred to when talking about Abuja actually live in Nasarawa State.

sbashir10:
Dr dipo fashina, he's now in ABU Zaria, helping setting up the First philosophy Department in northern Nigeria, and ABU has automatically elevated him to prof,

Kogi State university has had a department of philosophy long before 2016. I have friends that graduated with philosophy long even told fore 2010. Kogi state is in northern Nigeria, just to set the records straight.

Randymarsh:
when did retired ak 47s become military grade i was expecting to see m16s or m4s not rubbish

Don't mind them.

Offpoint:
Doesn't look like robbery to me, more like WW5
I wouldn't engage such robbers in a shoot out if I was to be a police officer.


Anyways...

Give everyone a second chance, but never make the mistake of giving an armed robber a first chance.

There is nothing special about those weapons. 6 are AK 47 used by our police and soldiers, the only special weapon there is the GPMG which is only used by the army. Even the number of magazines there isn't too much. That's about 3 magazines for each AK47 there which is normal.

Who is 'they'? Is she not part of the 'they'?

Minemrys:
rivers state u mean? Cos ksu dy learn work in terms of cultism.

Are you sure? Close to 30 students lost their lives last year to cult clashes.

Sultty:
Cool. my first time of hearing kogi state university tho shey those bandits dey go school?

Obviously you don't know where Kogi is on the map. Again, you must be the type that doewbt travel anywhere.

Foodqueen:
The truth is sometimes when some girls don't av any reasonable thing to say, they spew rubbish. It's in their DNA.

They don't know that somethings hurt more than sword.

To her, she thinks she was been helpful.

I guess you are a kid too like the poster.

SavageResponse:
The ban on international travel is taking a toll on wealthy people who would otherwise have run out of the country to seek medical care in Europe or America

more people are dying abroad than here. Corona.virus has no cure bro.

kuuljay:
Thugs just broke into that facility and made away with lots of equipment as we speak

Not true. They attacked the FMC in Lokoja, not this place.

murmee:
Tests or no test, is anything alarming happening in the state. That is the question!

Are people dropping dead on the streets of most other countries with the virus? You guys font have a point. Even South Africa with a small population compared to Nigeria has more cases and deaths. Many European countries with more cases than Nigeria do not have their people dropping dead on the streets. Make una de use una sense abeg. Our stats are similar to most other countries meaning we are generally doing the correct thing.

Redman44:
The world is resuming full activities on all fronts. Covid-19 is being phased out gradually. Why are cases of Covid-19 rising in Nigeria suddenly? Is it because of the money that will be collected from the WHO and other donor Agencies? Africa has not really been affected by the Coronavirus Pandemic. Let us be honest with ourselves.

Nigerians cases are not increasing suddenly, they have been increasing since day 1.

sunshine1974:
fear God brother, how do you throw down your blocks and only few will break? Is it a brick?

Op dont follow this man, never throw your blocks, it will scatter like a pack of cards

I didn't throw them down literally, I dropped them from a Peugeot pick up van, I'm sure you know that van isn't tall and the soil was sandy. Only very few broke bro, for my workers to commend the quality of the blocks is enough attestation.

I moulded 11k blocks in 2018. Moulding is cheaper and usually stronger provided you water the blocks extremely well. Watering is very important, if your blocks aren't well watered they may even end up worse than commercial blocks produced with lesser cement and worse sand and more blocks per cement bag. I spent about 950k to 1m in producing the blocks.
1 40 blocks per bag
2 cement at 2500,
3 workmanship at 550 per bag of cement moulded.
4 about 22 trips of sand at 8500 per tipper load.
5 transport: I used my personal pick up truck. I have no estimate of costs.
6 at least six full tanker loads of water at 5k each.
7 I used about 24,000 litres of water to water the blocks only twice with a hired pumping machine. My blocks still ended up very strong though. My workers could throw my blocks down when offloading them from the picking with very few breaking. In fact my workers who made the blocks so strong.
8 location is Kogi State.

Chigold101:
what pandemic?
The fraud pandemic or the real pandemic?
Ask yourself why people are not dropping dead all over Kogi and Cross River States?
The two states that refused NCDC to come in with their false and fake results

Your question is very dumb. Have you asked yourself why Lagos with the highest tests and confirmed cases doesn't have people dropping dead despite allowing NCDC to do their job? The fact is the virus isn't as deadly in African countries as it is in the western world, that is why people aren't literally dropping dead.

Kekereekun123:
some of them their parents married while squatting. What is wrong in marrying and building with a man

Yes, squatting with money in their accounts, not 500 naira per week while feeding in people's houses.

Sultty:
U don't need money like Dangote to marry, if u find a really good lady u will be married and achieve in marriage

Without money? Most of my friends aren't married just because they can't afford to feed another stomach. In fact feeding themselves alone is a huge task.

Karleb:
Men get married late too, whom should we blame for that?

...and this is coming from a man?!

Blame the same unemployment, its a very simple thing.

Seventy7kings:

calm down and stop forming woke. Bello didn't prevent them from doing their job, he only asked them to be quarantined before they start. Who are they that you all feel they shouldn't be quarantined? Are they immune to the virus?

Hundreds of thousands of people have entered or passed through Kogi for the past few weeks, Bello didn't bother to quarantine them but he is eager to quarantine health officials who came to help the state. Does that not tel you something? All the masses northeners being caught in the south East and South West entered through Kogi State.

puyol005:
And till now Kogi have not recorded any strange death. Make FG leave Kogi alone joor!

Lagos State has the highest number of cases, yet it hasn't reported ''strange deaths'', you don't have a point with that one.

Tobinrobin:
But the man said there’s no coronavirus in his state & he doesn’t have any covid-19 related deaths yet so why not just leave him?

how does he know without conducting tests?

kb83:
Logically with the high temperature in Kogi,I bet Corona virus cannot survive it there, moreover the are angry that the cannot dish out figures in Kogi like they do in other states, please leave my people in Kogi alone, Corona na by force.

Kogi is not hotter than Kano, Katsina, Maiduguri, Yola or Damaturu where cases have been reported.

greenhulk:
So they should start picking people up at random for tests? So far there are no suspected cases, then there won't be contacts to be traced and tested.

What about the suspected cases reports by doctors that they refused to test? Why do you think the NMA is also fighting the governor of Kogi State?
