Wooooooooooow!
if there is an archive of useful IT resources that one can get their hands on and become a force to reckon with in the field, its this. I must confess, I got more than I bargained for. Its worth more than a hundred times the remuneration paid. Thanks for being gracious to share Mr VStuffs.

is Arabic Nigeria adopted language?
Well, maybe you didnt read my post till the end. I'm not in support of it too. But, you should knw that we use several other languages including Latin and Greek too on several occasions.
However, you have to give it up for those inscription in the currency. Its not Arabic, its Ajami (ancient Native Hausa) that is usually written in arabic letters. Just like I could write your name in Arabic and it would still be pronounced 3moses and meaningless in arabic.

THAT INSCRIPTION TRANSLATES TO "ONLY ALMIGHTY ALLAH CAN GRANT VICTORY - ONLY ALLAH!"

LIKE THE OP. MY QUESTION IS - IS ARABIC PART OF OUR LINGUAL FRANCA? undecided undecided


WHY NOT WRITE IT IN ENGLISH??



THIS IS WHY I SOMETIME WONDER IF THIS COUNTRY WAS REALLY MEANT FOR ALL OF US! undecided


FEW DAYS AGO ONE MOFUKA PUBLISHED LIST OF CIVIL SERVANTS BY STATES BUT FAILED TO ALSO GIVE US LIST OF OUR MILITARY, PARAMILITARY AND OTHER SERVICES PERSONNEL BY STATES OF ORIGIN!

HIPOCRISY!!
Allah is translated as God when you're translating Arabic to English. Just the same way you'll change Musa to Moses, Yunus to Jonah etc.

Mogidi:
Everything in Nigeria is Islamic, check the inscription in our currency also.
how myopic? Arabic is a language. Everything Arabic isnt Islamic, just the same way every English isnt for a Religion.
Stop the Ignorance.
It means ''Victory is from God''
The inscription from the currencies 'tells' the amount for those that can read in the Language and it isnt even Arabic, its some Transliteration. Just like I could transliterate English to Arabic, I could write Arabic and you'll read it as English and it would be meaningless in that Arabic.
BTW, I also see no reason for that inscription to be in Arabic when English is the Lingua Franca but I'm not sure thats our Army logo

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Shell Discrimination Of HND Holders, Equating Them With Bsc Third Class. by laykhorn(m): 3:27pm On Nov 10, 2015
fratermathy:
This is getting too old and stale.

While I do not support totally embarrassing HND graduates and denying them of promotions, appointments and a chance to make a successful career, it should be noted that HND and B.Sc/B.A/B.Agric/B.Tech/LL.B/B.Fisheries are different and the dichotomy must be emphasised.
HND is a technical diploma. It is technically not even a Degree but a National Diploma. B.Sc and its other appellations are the recognised standard for academic, theoretical and career based jobs and appointments. That is not to say HND cannot be used. It is just that HND is better off for handy middle-levelled and technical jobs/careers. The whole essence of HND is to make sure that there are middle-levelled skilled people in the society that can be called upon and relied on for their technical expertise. University graduates are seen as having done a theoretical study with much intellectual rigour and are, thus, deemed to have a high intellectual acuity for certain professions and careers. This must be known and not relegated. No matter how much sentiments come in and no matter how much we try to equate these certifications, the sacrosanct fact is that they are not the same. As long as one is a "Diploma" and another is a "Degree", they can NEVER be treated equal and same.

On the issue of Shell equating HND with Third Class, I have iterated in the previous paragraph that HND is not seen as an intellectually inclined degree but rather as a technically inclined diploma. Having a Distinction in HND only proves that you have an excellent technical expertise, perhaps even beyond that of University Degree holders. However, this does not translate into the fact that you are intellectually buoyant enough to stand a University First Class product. It doesn't add up. For one, our Nigerian Polytechnics operate a 4 points GPA system as opposed to the 5 Points used in our Nigerian varsities. Secondly, the units of courses taken in HND programmes are far lower, both individually and cumulatively, when compared with a University. Thirdly, the course contents in Polytechnics are peripheral and elementary as opposed to that of a University! Fourthly, the calibre of academic staff and their standing is much lower than that of a University. For one, a Polytechnic cannot have a Professorial Cadre! Polytechnics usually have substandard facilities and make-shift labs and instruments. All these come together to haunt the graduates of Nigerian Polytechnics!

The solution to all these bifurcations is easy. Polytechnics should be made to award a B.Tech rather than an "Ordinary" or "Higher" diploma. Polytechnic facilities should be overhauled and made to standards. The Professorial Cadre, alongside its competitive and cumbersome "floating" process, should be introduced to the Polytechnics. Polytechnics should employ the 5 or more Points GPA system and courses should be well developed, standard and carry higher units! In fact, the term Polytechnic should be hijacked from parlance and replaced with University of Technology or any other soothing appellation. We should always strive to follow the UK pattern in our technological pedagogical system.

Finally, on the issue of ostracization and stigmatization, I believe it is only Nigerian Legislative Bodies that can end this once and for all. As long as they are comfortable with it, nothing will change! Let's just stop flogging this issue and look forward to better things! This issue has been discussed, ignited and quenched severally since Nigerian employers' decisions to employ preferential treatments! It is time we either take drastic measures or simply let it go as we have always done.

#MyTake
Mr. Baminasri, I am sorry about your plight! Your best is yet to come. I'd advise you to get a PGD and possibly a Masters though.

Thank you for this. May God bless you. How many times would the issue of HND being equivalent to BSc be flogged. They are not equal. One becomes an Engineer, the other a technologist.

just like how the foreign media do exaggerate Nigeria situations to the outside world until they come and feel, see and experience things by themselves
What they do to Nigeria, they do the opposite to the West. They wont portray themselves in bad light the way they do to us. That is what they do to Africa and Middle East as compared to Europe and N America
