MrPristine:
Donald Duke certainly has the best qualities to rule Nigeria amongst our present and past politicians. He will certainly have my vote if he decides to run in 2019.

Hey Nairalanders,

I'm currently in a state of confusion now and i thought i could reach out to the knowledgeable ones on this forum who can help clear my mind.

On applying for admission last year i was given zoology to study, but i didn't like the course. Although i went ahead to take the opportunity, i tried for another admission this year into pharmacy. But my course was changed again on getting admitted and i was given food science instead.

I initially wanted to just go ahead with the one I'm doing already (zoology), but i met some people who informed me that food science is better. Now I'm confused on which one to pick.

Please I'd like any professionals in the above fields to enlighten me more on them including the prospects and which is better in our economic climate. I tried researching on both but i didn't come up with much. I hope i can find answers here.

I don't know the mods in charge but I'd like if this topic can be pushed forward for more coverage.

Your thoughts is the same as mine

Please get off the backs of Ebonyi people.

They are actually good people.

Jakpon:
ndi anambra onye ogwu ego, please come and help we ebonyi igbo to develop ebonyi state the same way you often foolishly claim that you help Yoruba people to develop their land. we Igbo are really suffering in ebonyi. The only tarred road in e bonyi is the one leading to the government house at abakaliki

Threebear:
Nigerians and reactions .
If they actually took that energy they use to react to various posts about celebrities and invested it into something productive, the general poverty ratio in the country would reduce drastically.

But Aunty Toke did you bleach out your brain or did Maje knock it out of your head?
So a man gives you 50 million naira or more and you use it to purchase a bag?
There are some houses in lekki that costs around that range, you'll get a property for life and you'll never go hungry no matter how the tides turn.
Some women are a disgrace to intellectual capacity!

@Laudate
How are you doing today?

@Meilyn is actually a real-blooded Igala guy
and he is who he says he is. I've known
him from his previous useful posts on Nairaland
go back to some years now as an Igala.
He's also lived in Lagos as well!

You know people leave a digital trail online
that gives them away, but Meilyn is Igala.

All the best!

IamLaura:
Is that not the same gown she wore in the wedding party??

hassanyusufseun:

gtrust:

Now, as former minister for petroleum for many years, habaa

Anyway, a certain former governor of Bayelsa state got ALL his 40 houses confiscated by the same EFCC under Jonathan back... No comment!!!

Funny you. The foto of that little boy is to tell you to take your eyes off weightier matters and focus on what you can comprehend.

I have been looking for a transformer for over 2 hrs and can’t seem to find one. In case you find one in your area, be a brother’s keeper and hug one. You will surely be missed. I am not curious to know your origin but if someone is not proud of his origin, then he has no direction as to his destination. You cannot speak for the Binis and I will beg you to hands off.

itsik:
I dont think I have seen a girl that will intimidate me as a young man. No matter how she looks or what she earns or what she thinks she has, or by her intelligence.
My dear ther is a reason you are a guy. Am not saying you should brag cos you are a man or guy, no.
No matter where she is or you are, try and lead her by good examples and nice life style. No one will tell her to adjust and follow and leave all those things that looked like they are intimidating you.
Then if she doesn't, maybe still the show off type, my dear I will leave her like I leave my sweet bed early in the morning, after all the lovey-lovey between me and my bet the previous night.
Hmmm just can't understand how one will be intimidated cos the other is too pretty or intelligent. Just remember as a man, work hard and make enough money. But you are in no competition with anyone ok.

Just get this basic things right and watch things take shape in your life.

Huawei is also in Nigeria.
We do not need them at the back end. We need these guys at the forefront of our industries.

How can nigeria have main one (there's another one but i cant remember the name )and we still get exorbitant charges for data?

I don't know about you guys but I'm sick and tired of crappy services, Appalling customer services and the likes.

Again, I refer you to the power situation in nigeria. These were sold to portfolio investors. But you and I can attest to the shitty supply and service we are getting.

Vodacom first intended to buy a majority stake in Econet Nigeria in a deal worth some USD150 million in equity, and another USD100 million in operational loans but Econet Wireless International had contested the deal in the Nigerian High Court. It sued Vodacom for what it describes as "inducement to breach of contract". http://www.balancingact-africa.com/news/telecoms-en/8603/nigerias-vee-network-the-transaction-that-sunk-a-deal-and-cost-two-senior-people-their-jobs

Knott-Craig former CEO of Vodacom said earlier this year that two of its shareholders - Vodafone, which owns a 35 percent stake, and SBC Communications, which has an indirect stake in Vodacom through Telkom - were concerned about compliance with the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The law, which threatens fines and jail terms, is designed to stop US multinationals and corporates and those companies with business in the US from engaging in corrupt practices. "If it were not for that, we would be operating in Nigeria now," Knott-Craig told Moneyweb earlier this year. http://www.balancingact-africa.com/news/telecoms-en/8603/nigerias-vee-network-the-transaction-that-sunk-a-deal-and-cost-two-senior-people-their-jobs

Guestlander:
Why do you guys lie so much? If Ndubuisi Kanu (who was in office for one year 1977 -78 ) laid the foundation of modern Lagos, where then was Mobolaji Johnson who led Lagos from 1967 to 1975?
E pele iro yi.
Everytime an Igbo man comes out to lay any kind of claim on Lagos, the dream of ever leading the state democratically is deferred further into the horizon.

The lawyer for the whistle-blower, Yakubu Galadima, who informed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission of the $43m, N23.2m and £27,800 (N13bn) recovered from an Ikoyi apartment, says his client will not accept anything below five per cent commission.

Galadima said this during a chat with one of our correspondents on Saturday.The Secretary of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, Prof. Bolaji Owasanoye, at an event on Thursday titled, ‘Tracking Noxious Funds’, which was organised by Kent University Law School and Human and Environmental Development Agency, had explained that any whistle-blower, who helped the government to recover anything above N1bn would receive less than five per cent commission.Owasanoye, who was part of the team that drafted the whistle-blower policy had said, “If you blow the whistle and the government recovers cash, you are entitled to between 2.5 per cent and five per cent. The maximum limit is five per cent.“According to the policy, if you blow the whistle and it is below N500m, you get four to five per cent because the higher the amount that is recovered, the lower the percentage that is given.

This is the global best practice.“If the recovery is between N500m and N1bn, you get three to (Continue reading here)

helpishere:
For someone who assumes a role not assigned to him, it is baffling. You said no one knows Bembe’s Igiogbe in Benin, he was not sent by the Oba, and many more trash that you have been saying about the Ibos trying to cause war between the Binis and the Yorubas. Ajayi Bembe never told you he was speaking for the Oba and for someone to recall what his grandfather did and told him, you are foolishly asking for his Igiogbe in Benin. Where is your own in Benin? You are the hypocrite here because you want to look good among the three tribes. You have been asked where you come from and you greet in Ibo and Bini yet you cannot say where you come from. You did not see Binis and Yorubas at war on the thread but exchanging all the tales that we know about where we come from. Where are you from double mouth?

Judolisco:
then u should knw that d state needs development, and that should come using any means whether through industrialization or through building of new schools

Naughtysite:
Stop saying nonsense.

AGAIN AND AGAIN TILL INFINITY ,IDU people can tell their story but not LIES ON OLOFIN ODU'A. Peradventure, laudate isn't comfortable about my lineage and me, then tell God to reverse from me if God did mistake about our own true story. It will do you more good to do self research on your own lineage within IGALA group before engaging me. There is IGALA thread, go through and contribute your own research studies on them. Yoruba blood till the end! Kiss the truth. ;DYeah, I am lamenting about my history and so shall it be.

Before concluding, I will like to acknowledge the efforts and contributions of Island Power Limited, (an affiliate of the Negris Group in the realization of this project). I also express appreciation to the distribution network contractor, Messrs JKN Nigeria Limited and many others who contributed to the timely and efficient delivery of this project. It will be invidious for me to attempt to individually acknowledge all of them. They have all proven to be reliable partners towards the achievement of our common objective.

This project has demonstrated that the provision of electricity is not rocket science. With the right political will, resource application and dedication, we can eradicate darkness from our land by a Government that is committed and cares.

This project is also very strong evidence, if any is required, of the power of the private sector to drive change in any society and our Government takes pride in this project and the many other PPPs that it has enabled, to expand the opportunities in this economy. http://www.tundefashola.com/archives/news/2011/05/25/20110525N01A.html
