First, nothing in those pictures suggest that those NTA engineers were facing any difficulty.

Secondly, NTA is a microcosm of the failed Nigerian state rife with corruption and useless leaders managing the country. If you like bring top engineers from MIT and Stanford University in the USA to cover the match, you will still get those poor picture quality, as long as they are working with the same resources these NTA engineers were provided with. The engineers are not the ones in charge of providing funds to get state of the art equipment, the NTA management is. The management is busy embezzling the budget and neglecting to fund important areas. This is same for many agencies in Nigeria. You won't understand if you are not working as an engineer in these agencies.

Infact, I will commend those NTA engineers for managing to work with stone age media equipment.

A successful person is someone, irrespective of their financial status, who derives joy in giving to the poor/needy and touching their lives positively without expecting any thing in return. Look around your neighbourhood, there are people that even #2000 to pay for tuition to government school for their child is difficult to come by, #1000 to pay for malaria drugs is wahala . The same #2000 that many of us will spend on isi-ewu and beer. Help someone today and put a smile on their face.

nlander, What do we say to the god of Unemployment and hunger?

Not today. But for this OP na today.

Vision2ae:
do your research before saying shit....that country is virtually in Europe...it's Spain's closest African neighbor....

Ignore him/her. A lot of small kids and adults with brain of small kids on Nairaland, you would only be wasting your time answering them.

Meanwhile, you only told me you have been offered Medicine/Pharmacy. Is it in Rabat or Fes? If it's in Rabat, just head to RPF church on Sunday, make friends with the Francophone and Anglophone students after service. You are bound to meet one or two medical students on ground who can explain to you better what difficulties one might encounter. Also if you are in the cité mix up with other Nationalities. Don't just hang around with your fellow Nigerians alone.

NaijaOlosho:
When Nigerians say they will link you to some one becareful ooo

Check if its not Human Traffickers, drug Barron's, human body parts mutilators etc.

Check well oo

Yes, I will link him/her to drug Baron or traffic him /her to Arab slave masters. Are you satisfied now?

Vision2ae:
pls who knows a thing or two about studying medicine and pharmacy in Morocco

What's your current status? Are you in Maroc already? If yes, have you been offered the medicine/pharmacy already? If yes, I could link you up with Nigerian graduates of either course to help you out . If No, your chances of being offered Medicine/Pharmacy is very slim, you could be offered an alternative course instead like BCG or SVT, you could still be lucky though. It's fun when your language of instruction is in French.

If you are still in Nigeria and have not moved to Maroc, find a University in an English speaking country instead. It's difficult to adapt a french degree equivalence to Nigeria degrees. Heck, Nigerians hardly understand their own degrees. (The HND vs BSC dichotomy is an example)The French degree scale is 1 to 20, not 2:2, 2:1 or 1st class, good luck finding a Nigerian human resource personnel with the patience to understand that.

Good evening naira land,
Whenever I search for my phone number on Google search, I get all my comments, post and information on naira land. I have modified any post containing my phone number, but the search still brings up my naira land profile.
Please how can I change this occurrence?

Google has indexed your number. It could take months before the phone number stops showing whenever you search. Do a Google search on how Google indexing, crawling works.

Dude you aint calling no one out, you are showing pain due to your own personal lack...

even the whites wishes fruadsters rehabilitation and corection in medium seciurity prison but black man like you are sooo hatefull you want evil, i guess satan is black

spit!! tueh!!

Let me burst your brain small, Satan doesn't exist! So all reference to the mythological creature renders whatever post you have made above invalid. I am 100% for rehabilitation of criminals(Yahoo boys et al) by the way. Arrest them and their praise singers (you included) and rehabilitate their brains, so they will understand stealing/defrauding people is bad and it is denting the country's image.

iammo:
you seem so pained, kpele they have oppressed your life tire

Lol.... Oppress me? Kikiki ..

iammo:
typical acrimonious envy.. its really not you speaking its your deeply rooted hate

Lol Hate is the new word for people who have the moral standing to call out Yahoo boys, fraudsters, drug peddlers and their praise singers.

iammo:
i can trade insult with an envious person.. now get lost or fvcking flush your jelous self

Jealous? Envious? Because I called you to order for celebrating idiots a.k.a fraudsters, yahoo boys and drug peddlers as rich people. Don't make me laugh. You just keep buttressing the fact that the way you think is small pikin ish !

iammo:
very lame talk... you can use that trash pf damaged image on your fellow poor untravelled type not me after being in many countries

No one cares whether you have travelled to the Moon and Jupiter. Your previous statement was foolish. No amount of travelling can erase that. The one you just made above even exposes you the more, that you are just immature.

iammo:






why else are people rejoicing the downfall of Mompha and other Yahoo Boys if not for deep hate for rich people

The comment above is a foolish statement that can only come out of the mouth of someone with a puerile mind.

Apparently, you do not understand how bad these fraudsters have severely damaged the image of Nigeria, including the idiots who carry and/or sell drugs in other people's countries.

Fallacy of hasty generalization. It's not a poor people's thing, a significant number of 'people living in Nigeria' will take advantage of you whenever the opportunity is there. From the FG(see the way minimum wage is being dragged), the rich, the middle class, SARS, DSS, Religious leaders down to the least poor person. As long as there is no effective system to check their excesses!

and so?

tonididdy:
Get a house bro... Na money nor dey make some people dey say beer is bitter.

Lol ..I have my own house that I pay mortgage and live in with my wife and kids. I will complete payment by 2026. That's six years from now! Planning to purchase another land or key into any other government housing scheme that's available and put that one on rent.

tonididdy:
Brother even in the next 100yrs Nigeria cannot completely occupy its greenery.

This your stats funny well well. It's not even a case of just greenery. An imbalanced ecosystem is recipe for disaster, whether 1 year from now or 1000 years from now.

Elliot2:
lol. I have seen people several times packing sands from the road sides after rain fall. They build their houses from those residues. Those ones cannot save money up to 100k for house rents. Every little 2k n 5k they get,they put to the project. It is not foolishness.

Your matter don tire me I swear. Let me make it simple with a Yes or No, since you don't understand what I mean by what works for person A can/might not work for person B that I have been saying since.

Should everyone finally build his/her own house? YES.
Is it a good decision? Probably Yes.

Is it a wise decision to do this when there's no other meaningful income to sustain the family? NO

The family in this thread can't even buy needle and thread of N30 to patch a torn window net, let alone feed well and take care of family medical emergencies and yet they have housing project.

tonididdy:
So apparently the animals and insects deserve to live a better life than humans.

Well done sir.

Lol...don't see it from that angle. See it this way, their presence leads to a balanced ecosystem which in turn leads to a better quality of life for humans.

Elliot2:
Lol,I dey laff! E better to build on the outskirt n give out for rent n use the proceed to rent wherever u want. I don't know what country you are chatting from,but not Nigeria. Bro, we are talking about a family that changing a bad window net is an issue. Lol. The average Nigerian don't start a building project with the complete money for it. So,waiting to be financially stable before owning a house means that you are going to work your whole life on rented houses.

You are mixing every thing up and do not see where I am going with this. Like I said what works for person A might not work for person B. You are still making the mistake of one size fits all.

Building on the outskirts and renting it out as long as you have the financial capability is fine by me. This means your only worry will just be when will your tenants pay to recoup your investment and also means that your financial power is not low.

But struggling to put up a house on a low income, for example, only to move your family to some far away community with no good roads, no good schools, no light, burglary attacks e.t.c just so that you can avoid rents of 50k or 100k and still struggle to feed your family makes no sense.

chiboyo:
I wonder why this logical explanation seems so difficult for some people to comprehend...

Because the average Nigerian believes owning a house and being called a Landlord is the ultimate goal even if it means living in corrugated iron sheets in some far away community, that commuting to work and finding good schools for your kids becomes a Herculean task.

Owning a property is good if the property is located in a conducive environment and your financial power is not being depleted.

Elliot2:
U n acidosis don't know anything here. This Lady and her husband are not the standard middle class Nigerians who can afford rents. Owning a property is the wisest decision.

Owning a property is a good decision but not necessarily a wise decision. There are so many factors we are not considering and most of the comments, either for or against, have made the same mistake of applying a one size fits all to every person.

The average Nigerian can afford buying and building in outskirts, where sometimes development hasn't taken place and just a few houses. No light, no road, No good schools, No nearby clinic or hospital, easy target for burglaries e.t.c You have to consider if it's worth the pain of moving your wife and kids to such areas or pray that one day development will come to that area before moving. This could be years or it could not come at all. This is one of the reasons why it may be a good decision to own a property but not necessarily a wise one.

idu1:
What is ride?

It means bully or take advantage of.

Overhyped movie. I lost interest halfway and was only praying for the borefest and torture I put myself to watch the movie to end quickly. The only positive from this movie is the forced co-operation/unity between Hausa and Igbo that it was trying to portray. On the other hand, businessmen will only do things profitable to them irrespective of tribe and religion. This cancels out the positive!

I never liked okporoko/stockfish anyway. I don't understand the craze for it by Nigerians, especially the people of Eastern region.

Let's ignore the condescending tone of the tweet for a second and focus on the title of this thread.

ba7man:
If you know Segalink well, he'll slide into Jibrin"s dm to tell him how much he admires him and kiss his butt while explaining that he meant no harm.

He's done it to a few public figures and was exposed.

Let's have some proofs, links, verifiable sources e.t.c Thanks.

Make I run go twitter , that's where the real gist of this story can be unearthed. Nairaland is just for scratching the surface.

tooth4tooth:
Am I the only one seeing this differently? I stand to be corrected though. I suspect he may have picked a baby dumped by the road side by those randy girls who are not ready to be mothers. If not,where did he get a new born baby Well ,let the police do their investigations.

You are not alone. I have similar thoughts.

I'm an avid BBN lover but this is just puerile from these Tacha and Mercy fans. The 2019 edition of BBN is over, what's with the animosity towards each other? What exactly are you guys competing/fighting with each other over, long after the show has ended? Give it a break!

Monaco2:
I just had a dream about being in secondary school, it’s a dream dat comes once in a while.... I see myself in class with my old classmates..... I don’t know wat it means at all, I graduated high school 10years ago n I still dream of being back there..... in their old building n the building was even demolished last year abi early this year sef. I really don’t know y I keep seeing myself back there

I used to have same dream till I did my Master's programme. Since then, this particular dream had stopped.

Shoodboi:
God knows how Nigeria always ends up with these people.

They are already preparing another useless person for us in the person of Tinubu. Our case in Nigeria is beyond redemption if we don't act at all.

ASUU want scam us. Virtually all FG agencies are under IPPIS which has helped to curb ghost workers and bogus payments to at least 90%. So these lecturers have been collecting double and triple salaries under the guise of being employed as staff in different Federal Universities. They know IPPIS will burst their scam, that's why they are against it.
