All comments here are absolutely right depending on the perspective individual look at it. In theory and according to guidelines established by each country engineering regulating body , engineers major role are majorly design, analysis, simulation etc. All these are only attained through knowledge gained from formal education upto Bsc or Msc in engineering or any other equivalent qualifications and professional registration. Technician roles are majorly repair, maintenance etc. A non registered Bsc or Msc holder can work as technician or technilogist in any engineering firm . It doesn't mean they are engineers by qualification. In actual sense using the definition of designer, innovators we can say we dont actually have real engineers in nigeria. Engineering practices is being abused in Nigeria where anyone fixing laptop, tv, gsm phones called themselves engineers. This is wrong, so the title should be Nigerian Technicians Repair The Damaged Section Of The Abuja-Kaduna Rail Track. Those repairing those rails are purely technician, one engineer may be with them as supervisor, to ensure quality work is done and according to previous design specifications

your write-up is correct, every engineers and technologists knows that. The op was making reference to the headline " Nigerian engineers repair the damaged section of Abuja-Kaduna rail track". The headlines is correct because the contract was giving to a Nigerian Engineering firm, and thus the firm is repairing the rail track.

Like I said mechanical engineers, design, test, analyse, maintain and build.

They build aircraft engines, robot, control system, gas/wind turbines, censors, compressors, e.t.c.

He should be investigated by the DSS, he might have gotten a phone call from the master minders of the attack not to board the Train.

So the perpetrators/terrorist might be ESN disguised as fulanis.

I need a job in the DSS

Let me give you example ...if a car brake fails that's a technicians problem to fix ...but if a model develops similar problems consistently that's an engineering problem he goes back to the design ... identify the problem n provide workable economically viable solution

I see, so fixing the damaged rail track is not an engineering problem and the headline should be "Nigerian technician repair the damaged section of the Abuja-kaduna rail track".

Go and tell all this jargons you are saying to engineering graduate of MIT or the university of California. It's a well known fact that Nigeria university do produced half baked engineering student and you are just a living testimonials of that fact

mrvitalis:
The provide designs for real life problems by analysis , observations , using the laws of sciences n economic viability as a guide

can you clarify on what you mean by real life problems pls?

You said engineers do not build, but they only designed and analyse right. Now turbine engine, rocket, nuclear weapons And so many other complex engineering invention, it is agreed that engineers build the design for those aforementioned invention, now are you trying too say they just design them and left it in the hands on technologist and technician to build them?

For you information,

Mechanical engineers design, develop, build, and test mechanical devices, including tools, engines, and machines.

mrvitalis:
Technicians not engineers for heavens sake

Repair , maintaining and installation are not jobs of engineers but technicians

ok. What is the job of engineers then?

Timo and Luftus check are short 1, the mid field is something else today. Loads of back passes

short 2. Well I blame the coach, we all know Timo and lotus aught not to be in Chelsea team, yet this coach went on and use loftus at the middle without one of kovacic and jorginho. After their away match against Brentford, the coach should have known better

Xilsbridalhouse:
You are not far from the truth. They can be very toxic but not all of them. Funny enough, I prefer making friends with igbos than any other tribe because I’m more free with an Igbo lady than Yoruba. Though igbos can be so rude!

I grew up amongst Igbos and ikwerres, even before the days of Nairaland, they always tag the Yorubas ofeunmanu and dirty pigs. Igbos are so tribalistic racist

Northernblood5:
1. Lol, EU devaluated or Caused inflation in Nigeria?? You seem funnier that i thought.

Black Africans never take responsibilities for their actions. Go and ask Buhari what happened to your economy. White people can only give advice, and Black African Leaders are left with options of following it neatly or Find a way to personally benefit from it illegally B4 implementing it(Which is what they always do)
Hold your leaders

2. Well, i am very sure that you know that 80 percent of AK 47 used by terrorists worldwide are Russian made but as a black African you are full of hate and envy, you decided to blame the US.

pls is the US part of EU?
Just asking a question, because u are defending USA and posting Grant from EU as evidence, so I'm curious

ImoleNaija:
If everyone believes your opponent wouldn't take more than a blow from you before falling & it turns out that, after taking several blows, he's still standing, then you lose some respect even if you finally win.

Take it or leave it, Putin is the toothless dog here.

how many years did it take Nigeria to conquer South East during the war despite southeast having no good weapon or well trained military. Did you remember?

Naiira:
Money spent on the roll-up banner is enough to feed family for a week.

All I see is quest for “Favoritism”

and after the week?

Maxxim:
This is a joke right?

not at all. If you see a multi milloniare with a 4millon naialra car, then probably he his spending his millions through another means. In this life, people cut their coat according to thier sizes. Cars, houses etc are necessities. If a human has the wealth to buy the best of the necessities, we will.

raymondhillmimi:
Am not jealous of him, am only pointing out the obvious. See let me tell you something, that believe is very wrong. Don't go insulting people with old and wreck cars thinking they don't have anything. It's not like that in reality so be careful.

I know many big boys that drive cars less than 3m even 2m self as long as the AC is working they are fine . But they have lands worth 100s of millions. I even know this real estate guy, when we went to my friends birthday party I got to see the car he drives and that sank into me with cold chills because I know this guy is worth over 500m but driving Acura TL of 3m.

I personally prefer to invest in landed priorities as much as I can, it's the right thing to do at this stage.

you are right bro, but one thing I have stopped doing is assuming someone is worth this or that without ACTUAL evidence.

raymondhillmimi:
Lol, untop old C300, guy you better be calming down. No go dey form say you get money they show yourself, there are many billionaires living a very low key life style and driving old Camry but you won't know they can buy your entire village. Car is not a yardstick for wealth, sell that car and get a car you can comfortably maintain and stop making noise for nothing.

stop being jealous my brother. You won't even see a multi milloniare owning a car less than 7m, more or less a billionaire

tuoyoojo:
My condolences for any one on dstv package

You just dey troway your money

If you are not satisfied with their service vis-a-vis your financial obligations, just stop subscription with them and switch to something better like I did

I finally summoned the courage to subscribe for TSTV and I can tell you categorically that I am enjoying every bit of it

Since I stopped subscribing dstv na so them don dey use call and text disturb my life

You get to watch very recent movies, lovely music channels, recent local movies documentaries, lovely educative children channels, news and sport channels

Since I subscribe in January I still dey on promo. I never pay shi shi till now

TStv should be more aggressive on advert that's why many people are losing out

if you can confirm that tstv is available in Ado-Ekiti, I will go get it immediately. Gotv na scam

Lyydia:
Hi Nairalanders,
What is the best way to invest funds without actually being engaged in doing anything? I have what I do that brings in money, I just feel like some funds are idle in my account and Naira - dollar fluctuations isn't helping matter.

For example fixed deposit accounts, which Nigerian bank has the best interest rate?

No cryptocurrency
No forex
No betting
No scam investment
No PM

Thank you.

buy a land and resell

myright:
show us FAMILY houses in your VILLAGES. We don't need buildings of corporate headquarters of multinationals.

Yorubas have nothing to prove to anyone. Only Igbos with small d1cks who are obsessed with dumb comparisons because they always worry about 'measuring up'.

No Yoruba is going to any village to begin snapping pics to post on Nairaland on what should be family and relaxation time.

We are secure and not driven by a need to brag to validate ourselves because we don't have self-esteem issues as Igbos do.

Hope you read that above

Siberia01:


What of all the NIGERIAN Billionaires
Scattered across the North ,East and west

Can't one just bid for Chelsea

investing in UK is not advisable.

I also downgraded my gotv subscription from gotv super to gotv jolli when I found out that the channel different between the two package is just 3-5 unimportant channels.

Also the different in gotv max and gotv super is also just about 3 channels only

rickpat:
really unfortunate. Ronaldo is during alot for a 37year old...at this age..it should be him just relaxing around the 18yard box for supplies to score...just like zlatan in AC milan

staying inside 18yard box and converting cheap goal is what Ronaldo has been known for since the years at Madrid and juve. If he his not getting the required pass now, it's just like we Yorubas usually say: "he has used his youthful age to enjoy what he should be enjoying at old age".

Seunfretty:
ATM was there for the taking ...the agreement was NT to press high....stay compact and defend well ..then if they get the ball link up and break away .. something they are really good at in years and it worked well...but that's NT really rhe problem...the problem is how on earth were they able to hold a team with so much attacking quality like united for 94 minutes..for the mere fact that flat footed players like matic had to be thrown into the game shows man UTD lacks creativity ....the only player that seem to show it which is Bruno always look too ordinary wen they play big sides....and his arrogance also is something i dislike ..he keeps throwing his hand up and shouting at the red to any decision that doesn't favour him....his NT as good as he makes people feel he is...so many players are far ahead....again Ronaldo today was a liability...he wasn't dragging the center backs out enough to create space...this team has a long way to go

Ronaldo will drag center back out, someone that always want to score all the goals will drag center back out so another player will score, that selfish nigga.

Maguire that mostly do score corner kick goals before Ronaldo came is now the one creating space for Ronaldo during corner kicks.
You have Said it all

thesicilian:
Ok
There's enough blame to go round, actually.
The wife takes blame for prioritizing religious beliefs over evidence based medicine.

The husband also takes the blame, because by signing up to become a JW, he invariably agreed to all their terms and conditions including no blood transfusion even for life saving conditions. The wife was only following his example.

The doctor also has some part of the blood, for agreeing to do the surgery knowing the strong stand of JWs against blood transfusion and not providing alternative measures.

I am very confident that if the Jehovah witness general oversear is in a position of death or take blood transfusion, he will definitely take blood transfusion codedly.

Nobody wan die

is there no match in the man's family?

Do you know during pregnancy both kidney needs to function properly?

is the wife not his family too, abi won't his wife chop his money before any of his extended family or relative

flokii:
As far back as 2006 if I remember correctly and remained guest for almost 10 years before registering.. school stuffs and all wouldn't even give me chance. We had others like naijapals, naijaloaded, getjar and co. then, just that those ones have options to upload and download files.

naijaloaded in 2006, u must have smoked Oshogbo weed

Desusi:
Naira landers, kindly advise me on what to do.

l am over 60 years old, a widower. By the grace of God, l was blessed with three children of which two are graduates with good grades from reputable universities here in Nigeria, one is still undergraduate before the departure of my late wife some years back.

As a retired man with meager money, I decided to manage a little business which barely gives me much money. One of these my children, a professional, though not teacher, is currently residing with me doing teaching job in different places as part time, pending when he would get a much better job.

We are living in my personal house. l would single handedly pay electricity bills, lawnman, etc. My son would not want to help in any way, not even with pure water of #10 claiming that he is with his father.

Efforts to convince him to assist me is not yielding positive result, instead he would pick quarrels with me. His senior sister has married, while the junior brother is still in the school as dependant, what sort of counseling do you think he needs to change.

I am afraid even if this boy owns shop rite in future, he would not help either.

maybe you are not the one who pays is school fees, or you stop caring for his welfare after secondary school.

If that's true,

Don't expect him to shoulder those responsiblity also

Kdon2:
Ok sir. But what if they access my account directly?

block ur ATM and get another ATM

MadamVanessa:





Nice one if it's true.

This thing has plunged a lot of people into pitiable debt.

But I don't know how someone can loaned money and find it very hard to pay back on the agreed date. When the loan company start disgracing them, they start crying foul. Some of them will run to nairaland to seek for help. Very stupid and uselesssss people infact thieves. I don't blame loan companies at all for their actions.

some people take the loan because it's the only available means to get the money they need at that particular moment.

The lending platform are at fault, how will you loan someone 15,000 and expect 24,000 back within 15 days. That's about 70% interest.

Now tell me.

Assuming you are in dire need of 1millon naira to save a family member's life, and your only option of getting that sum is by taking loan where you will have to pay 1.7million Naira back within 15 days. Will you pay 1.7millon naira back in 15days. Even if you want to pay, how will you that don't have 1milloin Naira to pay for bills 15days ago now have 1.7millon naira after just only 15days.
