Some of us are way over our head and paranoid!

I am disappointed at how most of you have given up,where is your Nigerian spirit and the never say die attitude?

In less than 90 days all these noise will die down,time they say heal wounds,lets just pray we dont have recurrence of such! Nobody is talking about the positive step that Umar snr took by reporting to the US embassy simply because Negative news sells more but trust me the media will get tired pretty soon and you will be fed with another distraction.

I have studied our situation properly,trust me guys, Nigeria is too powerful than how you people see it,our major challenge is bad leadership! As at today Nigeria is the biggest trading partner with america in sub saharan africa, Nigeria supplies 11% of america's oil,so you think they will just shut down all these?
Fighting a west african superpower,and a population of 168 million is not a task anybody will want to contemplate for now so forget about US nuking the country.

Travelling rule will change for everybody but its not as if the US has been liberal with its visa policies in Nigeria in the recent past.

It will take the citizen of another non-islamic country attempting thesame thing for all of you to know that this issue is beyond Nigeria or no NIgeria,

May God Help us all.

It will have any impact on Nigeria that is different from what Nigerians have been experiencing over time. Even before Farouk's incidence, how many Nigerians are given travel visas in Nigeria? Nigerians were always harassed and humiliated at international airports when they travel. Farouk's father did the right thing by informing the USA and her security forces on time, so they are to be blamed for not taking the necesary precaution against this guy. Though its a pity the guy was a Nigerian national, It could have been anybody from any country in the world including USA. Terrorists are every where and so security agents should be at alert at all times.

NO! I don't think his action is reflective of his upbringing in anyway. i don't know why people like to think rich people's kids are worse than poor people's kids.

it's not 50/50 anything. a terrorist doesn't need to be from a wealthy family as there is enough financial backing from the terrorist groups. i don't even buy the story that loneliness led him to this. we are not like white people who do silly things when they are lonely. when we are lonely we spend and party. the guy had so much money so he could have had lots of friends, plus there are loads of nigerians in london, muslim nigerians too. it makes more sense that a nigerian with so much money would try to buy happiness with money not death.

Oboma1:
I tire oh!. How can a young fine boy like that be brain washed!. Osama and his cohorts, should have carried these bombs first, and let these boys see how they died, before brainwashing these boys, and sometimes women. Let them die first , and these boys will emulate them, rather than being cowards, and sending morons to do the jobs for them. Abeg, anybody with any idea how much this Nigerian slowpoke was paid? Abi, was he to die for free?

Guys it is simple. This one about a Nigerian guy spending time in toilet is simply profiling. The guy shouldn't let them get away with it. Look at it this way, their have been many people that come from other countries that commit acts of terrorism yet no body labels all their nationalities terrorists. This guy (the slowpoke bomber) doesn't even identify with our Nigerian culture. He is Nigerian and so bleeping what. Majority of Nigerians are trying to fend off militancy, violence and terrorism. We are also trying to remove extremist elements from within us, just like the americans are trying to do. For any nicompu to turn around and call me a terrorist would attract an equal proportion of retaliation. Maybe this guy that was deemed verbally abusive was just defending himself from hostilities. Don't take the poo and they would be more cautious before accussing another Nigerian next time. Yesteday's incident doesn't give anybody the right to associate Nigerians with terrorism. So guys don't throw away your passports in shame (as I have heard so many folks here say they would), you would just confirm to yourself and onlookers that you are a terrorist. I didn't do anything wrong, and I expect to be treated with respect. So guys stay strong.

You can work in the Exploration,Appraisal and Development stage of oil and gas production as any of the PE functions i.e
Petrophysicist- Aquisition and interpretation of logs(NMR,GR,Res,Sonic etc).
Res Engineer- Reservoir modellling thru Material balance-characterisation of Reservoir i.e drive mechanism, Fluid composition thru PVT analysis. Reserves Estimation-Volumetrics, Well testing

I am sure you touched many of these areas in your Msc programme.
