Let the presidency address the question how they kidnapped him and brought him to back to Nigeria. The world is as Bleep under this Biden administration and everywhere is just full of confusion!

Aufbauh:
It's really an assailable demand on Mr. President to erroneously terminate a judicial process that is in motion.

The only political solution to Kanu's case is to avail him a fair trial. Anything short of this will be immoral, grossly inconsistent, demeaning and unacceptable.

Pls avoid quoting my mention comparing MNK case with pardoned Boko haram fighters.
One of the clear differences between their respective cases is that MNK case is before the law court.

You are good to go. You have good chances for funding with GA since it is chemistry. Try Utah state university, they've gotten juicy offer for chemistry there. You have no worries for funding. Use search bar on this thread on nairaland to find schools past students doing chemistry have applied and got funded.

Just wrote GRE few hours ago and the result wasn't impressive, your recommendations guys, below is my profile

Bsc: Biochemistry
GPA (WES official) 2.92
TOEFL: S24 W22 R25 L28 = 99
GRE V146 Q152 = 298
Intended programs: Ms Chemistry, Ms Biotechnology etc. I have been doing my own homework but your extra suggestions will be very helpful based on school and programs, thanks a lot.

May God increase your wisdom! If there is anything have gotten in your quote is "Next time your child create a nuisance at home, shoot him dead."

gwafaeziokwu:
You are alive, therefore you are free to turn logic on its head and ask very irritating questions.

Victims of Nigeria's shambolic nationhood do not have such luxury. Most have gone to the great beyond.

Only nature and karma can give you a well deserved rebuttal for trying to justify the shooting of unarmed/harmless youths because your government felt they were constituting nuisance on their toll gate.

Next time your child create a nuisance at home, shoot him dead. If you don't have a gun, use knife and send him to early grave.

Soulless human beings everywhere.

Guy, you are not yet there. Get a good car and apartment, you would see Nigerian girls running after you for marriage!

soundOsonic:
I met a lady last year, we talked well and vibed well. Later on I would go to her shop to discuss and I would have this eye contact with her and I thought I felt something like a spark though. Even the Lady with her suspected we had a thing together but I just recently knew her. We both talked as if we know each otherfor like forever.

She asked me for my number, I gave her. I never asked her for her number simply because I wanted to make sure that the signal we are getting from each other was purely romantic and not platonic and I wanted to take things slow.

I felt that her asking for my number was that she needed to spend more time with me if I am not available physically. So we started chatting. The chats was going smoothly and to my surprise we do chat all through the day we literally chats all hours of the day.
Then I did what all single Hot guy will do, out but apart from the Hot which I am not most times; I asked her out. I was not after sex perse I just wanted enough closure bridging through the platonic platform to a more romantic setting.

But she replied with this exact same words "I am not ready for a relationship, I want to complete my schooling and be focus with my education."

Well despite her reply killed my envisioned sun setting romantic bliss; I understood as she was a good girl, a virgin and someone very focus with academics. I know this because she tells me everything about her things happening each day, minutes and seconds.

I was contented with the platonic relationship, I thought I would wait maybe 2 or 3 years as that's what she was indirectly telling me.
A month later from the time I asked her out and was turned down, that time was December: Christmas period. I took my sister out to a nice eatery and I asked her if she could come along as a friend. She obliged but told me she would be going some place after that I said ok.

So after she left to her place of wherever. My sister told me she is worried, I asked her why, she said she went to her guy's place. I was shocked this is a lady that is not ready for relationship. This guy in question is a Yahoo guy by the appearance and all. The guy later broke her heart as that's the first time she is dating I think at 21. Another guy in the area too was like dating her as well after that guy, at the point of dating he got another girl pregnant and broke her heart (same Yahoo guy).

I thought why did she ever chose not to date me. If at all you were not physically attracted to me why didn't you just tell me instead of all these mumbo jumbo. I am actually an average looking guy. Maybe a 6 or even a 7 based on world standard.

My question is why do girls always refuse to date me, I am not a good guy neither am I a bad guy. The one I am asking out says I am not in her level, that she is in a very low level for me to look at her or ask her out. She believes I am after sex.

The next one said I am too low for her. Though she was older.
The one I confessed my feelings for her heart isn't even with me but another but she started catching feelings but sometimes she gets to her senses and she convince herself she belongs with another.

The girl who I don't even know that keeps greeting me Everytime but I keep ignoring her, I later went for her after a year she turned me down.
I just tire o.

Edit: Not every woman I meet, I ask out. I have a particular type of lady I ask out that depicts my taste. Any Lady beyond or below I show zero interest.

People saying I should move on, I have already. I was never pained o. And those calling me a simp I no even understand, where did you read any simpish move from me? Or do you at all know what SIMP is?
My problem isn't sex o. If I wanted sex I would get it easily from those low class street girls without spending a dime. I am after my kind of girls but they are saying NO.

Not every countries in south and central America, and Asia better pass 9ja!

Gerrard59:
Thanks for admitting it.

Ladies and gentlemen, as you all have witnessed, numbers don't lie and facts don't care about your feelings. So when next time someone says no continent outside Africa and their sh!thole countries can be compared to Africa especially Sub-Saharan Africa, do well to believe the person.

Is just like saying every countries in south America and Asia is better than Nigeria? Can this your statement be true?

tensazangetsu20:
They are only migrating cause the money is low. I have polish, Lithuanians and Belarusians on my team. What they call better opportunities isn't the same thing at all for us at all. You cant compare any country in Europe to anywhere in Africa not even South Africa.

lol... Kettle calling pot black! See how Nigeria has reduced herself. American Embassy talking as if USA na paradise, as if there are no homeless people in there, and no poor in their land and as if there is free money there...9ja don suffer! Being an African is even more blessed than being an American where everyone struggle to survive if no be Africa leaders that are all senseless. USA itself has its own HATES AND DIVISION but rather decided not to wash her dirty cloths in public.

That is the work of prayer... If you know you know. I declare today no matter how your enemies think they are big, when God is ready to fight for you, they are all goner! David and Goliath mystery!

kolnel:
lol
as expected
I still cant believe this man won over trump.

Make una no go tell una god of men una called G.O to stop using una heads to take buy private jets with una suffer-earned money to finance their luxurious lives. Make una dey there dey mumu una self. Zark has solved humanity problems and he is hope to many lives. Created jobs, makes lives worth living for his generation. Africa are the most backward thinkers in the whole world. Self-centered and foolish race. The religion you guys carry for head, na the mumu buttons some old westerners activated some hundred years back and the west has moved on from religion to other things.

Kriss216:
Listen to the dude above. He's making sense


Life without Christ is Crisis.

Installing agbero, owning the Lagos housing scheme, making his stewards as the owner and leaders of major positions and groups. Stealing Lagos properties and lands... To mention but few...

Dsalvo:
If you're honest to yourself you will admit Tinubu's history, socio-economic outlook, fiscal policies and leadership ethos show he is actually the one, not Atiku etal, who will make everyone face their resources and take their eyes off crude.

Tinubu did this precisely in Lagos illustrated by his obsession with raising IGR, stremlining processes, improving security and basic infrastructure, driving changes to attract FDI and many other innovations so Lagos can grow to be self-sufficient, more financially independent and not a slave to Abuja crude oil disbursement.

This effort, to universal applause, quickly made Lagos the six richest econmy in Africa richer than Ghana, Kenya and others.

Hate Tinubu if you must but kindly stick to facts and verifiable history so you never associate him with the mindless, clueless and beggarly lack of innovation that makes virtually all Nigerian leaders, since I999, unable to achieve what BAT and his successors have.

If not for ethnic bigotry, it is obvious Tinubu's ideas, which have worked spectacularly well for Lagos, can deliver Nigeria.

Tinubu is socio-economically innovative and brilliant. He believes in free market, efficient processes, competitive and innovation-drive societies, creative ways of funding infrastructural development, privatization of specialist and technocrstic sectors to stimulate efficiency and the rise of self-sustainable States.

A template for Nigeria's development and growth.

This is good sense. In academic one need ride on wings of a senior researcher. He should just get his name of the paper and make his advisor is recommender on his future endeavors. In academic you need ride on a big wing.

majorgr:
Actually you see most students don't know this, if it was your supervisor that conceptualize the work and gave you the idea on what to work on, then the work is actually his ideas, you only collected data and probably wrote the first draft. In this case, he is well deserving of first author because it was originally his idea. These days, ideas are not easy to come by, if they were why didn't you conceptualize the work? Also, I read somewhere and this is for a forieng institution that your desertation is the sole property of the university, they can decide to or not to include you even in the authors list, even if you take the university to court you can't win the case based on the existing rules. Thirdly, at the moment, you do not urgently need any publication for promotion so its ideal he becomes first author, publication are mostly needed in academia and I can see there is no urgency of you needing any paper at the moment based on your thoughts to let it rot. Besides, a good dissertation is a published one, wether first or last author you already score points as an author and you could use it to apply for scholarships if you are interested in furthering your studies, so it is one way or the other, in your best interest to get the work piblished. It was even nice of him to considered you as a co author, if you hear what other supervisors are doing eh you would be content.

Not only in Nigeria... Respect Nigerians in their decisions; we are one of the smartest dudes in human race! Japanese cars are less problematic; the mechanisms are unnecessarily complex compare to their German counterparts. The best selling cars in the world are Japanese cars!

dadabashua1:
most German cars are complex for our mechanics to understand when compared to the Japanese counterparts,so its easier to fix an accord or corolla or civic or Camry than a Benz or bimmer to an average mechanic in Nigeria,then secondly the electrical set up of most German cars is also a pain in the a*s to our rewires here,like I've always said,I won't drive Japanese car if I'm outside Nigeria,but to save myself the stress I will pick the jap mobile when I de naija,so in summary no be say German cars no make sense o,just that our environment no favor dem..lol

He made this guy so popular that most world powers are even more interested in this guy case than FG.

Mrkumareze:
Wow, all the cloud for Nnamdi Kanu. Buhari has made this guy Hero...

LAMBA! No dey bobo people. The CARE ACT is for Americans. If you got it, you have just gotten something that may work against you in the future. See, you are just landing don't be in haste to get rich in America. The Care act does not even pay all americans in college, it is through a nomination and the bulk of payment goes into most of their school debts.

Tylerbaby:
Just got my 4000 dollars covid relief fund for students sent to my account today. Here for barely 2 months and I'm already a millionaire as a student. Please, if you are really interested in studying in the US and have spent lots of money on it, do not relent, it'll pay off!!!

Just have reasons to chat regularly with great English speakers. Make it natural and besides no stress yourself too much on it; It's a borrowed language. I would advise you to go for higher education in English taught programs. If you have a bachelor's degree, go for a master program in English speaking countries to have access to the native speakers, you would be better at speaking English seemlessly. Take this advice from someone that was very bad at English even after bachelor's degree but now having English language as the only convenient means of communication.

Saneesk:
Nairalanders please i need suggestions as to how i can improve my ospoken English to absolute fluency.

Baba Falana help us admonish fasz to practice too inorder to have a replacement for you as you get old. You are just the only active activist lawyer left now. Please help the upcoming generations. Politicians are just bastards!

Go writeup. Also cultivate the act of saving!

bodybuilder:
One reason you're still broke as young person is because you think you can make it overnight. That has very low likelihood of working out. Stop waiting for dream jobs and instant millions. Only a few people will have the luck to make it overnight.

Face reality, start stacking up your bread from scratch. Making small money is better than not making money at all. Get busy. No matter how small it is. You can build from there. Money is hardly made overnight.

You gotta start from those small pennies and stop comparing your life to others. You need start learning how to make money small small. With the experience you can make more money. Making money is a sport, practice makes perfect. It will be easier for you to make 1million naira, if you know how to make 100 thousand naira. Experience is the best teacher. The time way use dey use dey wait for 1 million your mate dey make 10,000 dey add up dey go.

Nothing can override experience. Doing something over and over and over again.

Its both PDP and APC... Within even less than 8 years of APC, there has been a jump from 2000 to 4000. I just think this set of this 3rd Republic Politicians are just mad and bunch of thieves!

Sunday2021:
PDP 16 wasted years was a disaster to this country.
Cement was not more than 50 naira before PDP took over. By 2015 when the corrupt party left cement was already 2000(two thousand) plus.
PDP die,die,die!!!! Forever.

He has only given you facts on the trend on the sales of of cement from the data supplied or made available for the analysis!

Emocruize:
ok
when a bag was #38 then, were the masses complaining?

Marriage ordain by God? Jesus never married so also great apostles and great men that did exploits in the bible. The bible only admonished us to do so!

TooNoisy:
70% of those that say being married is no big deal are people who have either failed woefully at getting a spouse or keeping one. Most of them really desired married but it just didn’t work out. Rather than them admitting they failed, they begin to belittle the successes of those that got it right!

Marriage is ordained by God. It is a wonderful institution with a lot of fun when it is with the right partner. It is even more fun when there is money!

Not your fault. You live on political deceits.

seunmsg:
He will not rest until the mission is accomplished. Nigeria need him now more than ever before. He’s experienced, competent, nationalistic, educated and influential enough to lead the country and set her on the path of greatness and shared prosperity.

With Tinubu as president, every region can go to sleep with their eyes closed because a nationalistic leader who will carry everybody along is on the throne. He will unite the country and give every region a sense of belonging. Even Kanu will drop Biafra agitation and accept a role in government once Tinubu strikes a deal with him. Tinubu’s presidency will be a win-win for all Nigerians.

The loan syndrome of APC first-term killer!

Nadaken:
This is the only Northern Muslim cum Fulani that i can be rest assured would be liberal as president

He is not a jihadist, he is liberal, he is educated, he is well diversified etc

We forever miss your leadership of NASS

Ask yourself that between Dido and dick which one taste better. If I am real a man I wouldn't date bobrisky. The nature can't be cheated! Science does not stands with the nature, it only improve nature.

sharone21:
Pregnancy is possible that is why some women still use IUDs and pills, however, life is sweet ooo, once there is money, just pay a surrogate ( many companies are springing up for this service and more) to help in carrying the inserted egg and sperm.... If u like twins, u pay more. Technology has helped a lot these days and you don't need to travel out for this service.
Even younger women with problems of carrying to term can avail themselves of this service/s.
In all, put your faith in God as with Him, NOTHING is impossible.

You are correct with this analysis. And the fact is that it's only God and destiny that make riches with no sorrow. Going abroad is not a guarantee to success in life. That is why one needs divine direction from God, the creator of every souls.

adonainana:
As funny as it sounds he is probably telling some truth

There are so many reasons some Nigerians who left Nigeria in the 70’s and 80’s barely want to return to Nigeria. Most cant even afford flights back home, most don’t have houses here, most don’t have cars to drive them around here either.

It’s funny after 30 years no investments in Nigeria whatsoever. It’s possible . These are the reasons you see the U.K. is a pseudo rich but heavily taxed in like sum and expensive country to live

The nurses would have on average thier £1500 per month salary no doubt ( £23-25k per year)

Now this is the problem
Out of that £1500 a month £800 would easily go on rent, bills such as gas transport to work, food at work, clothes, etc would easily take £300-400 a month

Now they are left with £300 right, they have two choices spend the remaining £300 back into the system that have them the £1500 or find a way to make it accumulate every month

99 percent of people would choose spend the £300 on shopping and just to get the feeling that finally you have Escaped Nigeria

Now this is what happens next, months become months and like play like play years go by. Nurses just like everyone earn exactly the same in the Uk for years meanwhile bills go up

Cost of living go up so the £300 left is barely anything again, years become years and the person decides to settle obviously in the Uk and no where else and thier kids give them more bills to pay

In the nursing profession just like other ones they get only 28 days holiday in a year so they are more less trapped in the nursing job or any other job they move to.


The summary above becomes just working to pay bills and living pay check to pay check

It takes extraordinary grace to escape the life of LIVING FROM PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK in the UK

SOME do Fraud to escape, some go into benefits fraud too or credit card fraud

Also apart from living paycheck to paycheck, the UK is extraordinary built on a credit system, the little that the nurses have left after the month starts going on credit card repayments

Mortgage repayments, car loan repayments meanwhile in the midst of this the cost of living in the UK keeps going up

This is not to discourage anyone, the UK is one of the hardest places to be in and you see a lot of money after the month that you don’t think you are using again

After about 10 years it’s possible the nurses were just about the same way they were 10 years before when they left Nigeria, it’s not bad belle, it’s just how rigid the structure in the UK is

No one can escape how the UK works

Only way to escape how the U.K. works is to have a second hustle or side hustle or FRAUD.

But again who will have the chance to escape Nigeria and not take it

But life is not a bed of roses on the other end due to the facts in my long epistle

You used a real uncle not a virtual uncle. Even telling the vo his traceable movement in and out of the states.

Elderbet02:
I used my uncle as my sponsor and there was no funding from the school.

What concerns abokifx with the higher demand of dollars to is supply? Many people in this buhari govt. no even get sense. Reduce the demand for dollar and see if anybody can sell the dollar at high priced rate in the parallel market.

I think you have a limit on those cards in terms of amount to spend. I can help you make the payment but I will be doing it at abokifx rate.

BiggestAgbaya:
I have been trying to make payment for WES application for almost five days now. I have used Naira Mastercard of different banks (GTB and First Bank) and I've used Dollar Mastercard as well but all I get is an error message saying: "Unable to process your selected payment method. Please make sure the entered information is correct and up-to-date. For international cards, please contact your provider for assistance." GTB customer services couldn't help. Who else is experiencing this issue? What can I do to complete my payment?

That is the reason telling the ops not to see PhD degrees as all in all. Not everyone is interested in a PhD degree. And having a PhD does not mean the dude is being the best even in knowledge.

kramer:
People don't do PhD to be wealthy, they do it for the love of the topic/research they're studying. Most of them end up in academia as teachers, lecturers, professors etc.

Don't mind him. Someone pushing the boundary of human understanding in a very narrow area of human endeavour and seeing it as an almighty thing. Anyone can do PhD if there is an interest and perseverance. Why not ask himself why the wealthiest don't have a PhD? I think that would answer his curiousity.

phenylalanine:
To be frank PhD in US and UK are much more easier than what we have here, majority are funded while down here if you don't have your money, you look for funding and at the same time reading, excuse me, what makes you think the guy didn't study or work hard for it,I beg any body can do a PhD if the choose too, is just a narrow stuff in the academics and that doesn't prevent one from engaging in social activities
