Education / Re: Recommendation Needed - Online Learning Platform For Tech Courses by Leerikz(m): 1:06am On Mar 22 |
There are a bunch of options available from Alx, AltSchool Africa etc. I however advise that you go with Zarttalent Academy, the access to an internship right after the program makes them stand out for me. |

Politics / I Pledge To Nigeria My Country. by Leerikz(m): 10:45am On Sep 25, 2014 |
I pledge to Nigeria my country, to be faithful, loyal and honest, to serve Nigeria with all my strength, words taken right off from the Nigerian national pledge which 80% of Nigerians have, in one way or the other recited each and every word, but contrary to what we pledge, we are the ones who drag the name of our country to the mud, we heap all blame on our leaders, saying they have caused all our problems, yes i agree we have bad leaders, but we seem to forget that we also partake in the corruption that has eaten deep into the fabric of our society. All classes of people in our beloved country seem to have rubbed their noses in this menace called corruption, ranging from infants to elders, teenagers these days forget their studies and join gangs, some start the so called 'yahoo yahoo' to make quick cash, even the ones who try to face their studies are tempted by every form of 'runs' at all levels ranging from WAEC to POST UTME, university students resolve to sorting in order to make good grades, lecturers act as villains and threaten to fail female students if they don't succumb to their demands, also making it hard for students to pass their courses at the same time. Even after students manage to graduate, employment seems to be granted based on the 'who you know and who knows you policy' because every entrepreneur wants the success of his family members before anyone else. Tribalism seems to be the order of the day in the relationship that exists among our people as people from a particular tribe prove to be antagonistic towards members of other tribes. young men who strive to make a living are tempted to partake in crimes like robbery, kidnapping, ritual killing amongst others to make quick cash. Even religion has become a way to make quick cash as religious leaders have turned 'businessmen', using different methods to sway well-meaning members. virginity is a trait that has become very scarce among youthful girls as they seem to be caught up in the 'heat' in one way or the other. leaders seem to be too busy trying to make their political opponents look bad to cater for our country's needs, embezzling public funds in the process. family members plan evil against one another just because of the success their own family, families are divided immediately a rich father dies as everyone wants a piece of the 'cake'. cooperate outfits devise illegal means to make profit. The rate of divorce is alarming as young couples seem to be too desperate and rush into marriage. The bottom line is: the Nigeria we have today was made by Nigerians themselves and things would only get better when we all decide to straighten our paths, the truth might hurt but we must acknowledge it. Live positively! 1 Like 1 Share |

deeobserver209:..well said sir.. Your points are noted.. But you see.. Evil has come to take a larger portion of the world today.. The devil has used a lot of vices to deceive people into playing roles in his plan.. But it seems like all the blame goes to the northern part of Nigeria today.. People have forgotten so quickly the number of lives militants claimed in their quest.. And today it seems they achieved their aim and were offered amnesty, thank God for that though.. People also forget that day by day.. Lives are being lost to crimes like ritual killing, robbery and the rest.. Instead these people have come to put the whole blame on this boko haram menace.. You need to see the way 80% of poverty stricken northerners in cities like lagos are treated with isolation and hatred by other tribes.. It's like all other tribes have formed one formidable force against the northerners.. I agree and acknowledge the harm this Menace has brought due to its bombings and killings.. And i am not in anyway saying that terrorism is the solution to their plight.. But all i am saying is we should see things from different angles and put ourselves in the shoes of these northerners who are tagged as killers at the first sight. |

leo1234:..I'm painting the picture of the Northern child.. Sometimes people need to ask themselves the right questions and not go about putting blame on factors that will never change.. I did not in anyway say that terrorism was the solution to the plight of the Northern child.. I only thought of the grave circumstances that have lead to this boko haram menace.. |

bushdoc9919: A good article...and part of the problem too is the mistake made by the Gowon administration in the early 1970's when flush with cash, they took over most mission schools. A lot of these schools existed in the North...and many of them were crucial to the ending of the gap between North and South..well said.. Thank you for seeing things in a different way.. Nigerians need to learn to look at things from different sides and not just focus on what affects them. |

UnknownT: Forgive my french, but this whole write up is nothing but bull sh.it. And dont quote me telling me "u r lucky u r not in his shoes". If the community can afford watching TV in the village square, why wouldn't the brainwashed nothern children aspire to go out to that cities they watch on TV? That is not a reason to take to insurgency. There are rural areas in all the states,tribes and LGs in Nigeria, so they all should take to insurgency cos of government neglect? Bullsh.t!!!!!!! To even think that the Northern elites have been ruling this country since time immemorial? Once more, bullshi.t writeup!!!!!!!!..Read the post well.. The northern children were shown how their kind suffer in these cities and towns.. Therefore there is a slim chance of them surviving where their kind has not survived since life seems to be about 'who you know' and 'who knows you'.. Once again i will state that i am not supporting insurgency of any kind.. I'm just looking at things from another point of view.. You should try it too |

Politics / The Plight Of The Northern Child by Leerikz(m): 5:33pm On Sep 22, 2014 |
sometimes i ask myself, was it my fault that i was born into a northern family??, life seems to hold nothing for a young hopeful northern born child like me,i was born in a rural area in zamfara state,a typical Hausa community, i was raised accordingly by my parents, on getting to my teenage years, it dawned on me that everything seemed to follow one pattern in my community, it was compulsory for everyone to follow the Muslim faith, it also seemed compulsory for every male indigene to marry from the same community, i observed the whole life process here, everything seemed the same, nothing different ever happened, men were born local and died local, the whole community lacked innovation, nobody ever thought of anything new, life was an everyday process which everyone had to follow. there was hardly any form of electricity supply in my community, power was supplied on very rare occasions, and on such white collar days, the whole village would gather at the village square to watch tv, most times news, probably to everyone else, they were having fun and expressed it with big grins on their faces, when they saw big cities like lagos, kano, abuja and the rest on television, to me, it was like watching a totally different world, most of the things i saw on television were non-existent in my community,good roads, water supply, electricity and the rest. It all seemed alien-like when i saw them, the schools we had in my community seemed like death traps, with the buildings dilapidated and slowly collapsing due to age, i used to imagine how old those buildings must be, not to talk of the kind of teachers we had, most of them took extra holidays and came to school whenever they wished, we were mostly taught Islamic doctrine and a little bit of arithmetic and English to go with, you would wonder where we the students got our motivation to keep attending school, it all seemed that school seemed to be the most exciting thing happening around us, even though we could not say we had even up to quarter of what you would regard as a stellar education. I myself had dreams to be different, to make my community a happening place, to make my family proud of me, to help all kids in my community have standard education, to put good roads and water in place for my people, but as i grew up, i faced reality and it dawned on me that my dreams would eventually amount to nothing, 'where would i start from?' was the question i asked myself frequently, i was willing to do anything to actualize my dreams, but everytime i tried to muster a little hope for the future, my dreams were dashed by reality .life went on like this for a long while until something happened sometime in August 2008,a group of men came to our community school and separated the male folk from the female folk, we were told that a lot is going to change in our lives in the next few months and advised to prepare for anything.The lessons we were having at school changed totally,we were now lectured in the reason why our lives and community had come to be like this, we were told by our instructors that our kind was hated and neglected in the whole of Nigeria, we were shown videos of how our kind performed roles of servants to the society in urban areas, how our kind seemed to poverty stricken and isolated in such towns and cities, we were told that we would be in the same situation if we tried traveling to such places in search of greener pastures. Therefore we had to do something that would make our lives and that of our families better, we were told that if we cooperated, our families would be rewarded with huge amounts of money and life would get better. We were then told that it would involve killing and suicide bombing for our plans to really work out. Already our minds were prepared for anything. That was how we took up arms to fight for better lives for ourselves and for our families.So next time you want to open your mouth to judge the youth who have joined boko haram,think of the situation of this young man, think of the plight of his family and underdevelopment that had eaten deep in to lives of everyone in their community. live positively!.
