The vulture guy is irredeemable.

Don’t waste your time trying to get something reasonable From someone who’s bent on being a hypocrite.

AbuAeesha:
where is evidence pantami gave order of the killing?because definitely pantami didn't kill him.
where is the evidence that the son was actually killed inside the mosque?
is he the first person to die inside a worship centre? dont't people die inside churches,hostels?are the priests held responsible for the killings?
am not in any way promoting unlawful killing but when you have to accuse someone do it with proof beyond reasonable doubt.
hypocrisy is an ugly character.
quote with proof beyond reasonable doubt

You cannot properly explain your point without an attempt at explaining "Fatwa" in details.

Mrlcredible:
hi is your mailbox active?

Any update?

Engr. Goni Zana is one of the few Patriots we have in Nigeria. Some sectors like security, economy, education, etc should be above primordial interest. I live in the SW and I have to admit that if we elect another poorly prepared president, BH, ISWAP, etc will take over Nigeria before the next decade...

Akell:
Love of the world
The words of the Holy Spirit, through the Apostle John, to “love not the world, neither the things that are in the world” are not just idle words. They were the inspired command of God to all men, everywhere, who entertained any hopes or desires of dwelling in eternal peace with Him. To love the world is to hate God! In the Epistle of James we read, “Know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God” (James 4:4)[/b.

Good morning,


A story of a young man who got married 11yrs ago

Getting her a help to reduce the workload on her is one way of solving the problem. Another way is to ensure that the children spend part of their holidays with their grandparents.This will leave her with more time to take care of herself.

If she's the the one doing all the house chores and at the same time working, please find a way of intervening to reduce her stress.

Then you can have the conversation about how you would want her to look more beautiful...

Please note that she cannot be the same again again after having children, you can help her to be the woman you want...

Divanona:
Going through all the comments here and all the things in my head, I get more confused.

Divanona, see it as a personal responsibility to face your problem and solve it. It's also important for you to separate fantasy from reality. You may consider the following steps in taking responsibility for your son's safety:

1) See him as a partner (more like a colleague) in bringing up your child. This should tell you that your legs should remain closed to him. Forget the aspect of school fees for now, you've spent more than that caring for his son.

2) Get the contact and address of his parents and siblings. Request to speak with them on phone after he has done the necessary introduction, request for a visit (do not visit them alone).

3) Interrogate the last eight years of his life including work life, family, social and religious ( you should get names, places and addresses that you can verify)

4) Find out if he's not running away from law enforcement officers

5) study his phone habits, collect his phone and go through images, sms, emails, whatsap, telegram, IG, check all chats don't assume a name is Male or female. Pay attention to his body language while you're going through his phones

6) While it's good for a child to have is dad around, you have to exercise caution in this case, you may need to combine the roles in the interim till you ascertain that this personality is safe to be around your son.

7) Do away with the hidden desperation for marriage, your safety in this case matters a lot

Do a Google search of his name

9) Forgive yourself, this is the most important step.

All the best in your search

When you start hearing empathic messages from politicians, just know that they are on to the next game. In simple terms, he wants to be president in 2023...

He gave obaseki a good advice. The message is simple. present your S.S.C.E result this time around, ignore your degree and NYSC cert

This professor outrightly captured my thoughts and suspicions on George Floyd and the BLM. This is an election year, the need to analyse information from mainstream media should peel more resolutely now than ever before

The media has done huge damage to critical thinking and it's really sad. I really appreciate this author for being objective and highlighting the below facts that is being suppressed:

...George Floyd was a multiple felon who once held a pregnant black woman at gunpoint. He broke into her home with a gang of men and pointed a gun at her pregnant stomach. He terrorized the women in his community. He sired and abandoned multiple children, playing no part in their support or upbringing, failing one of the most basic tests of decency for a human being. He was a drug-addict and sometime drug-dealer, a swindler who preyed upon his honest and hard-working neighbors.

And yet, the regents of UC and the historians of the UCB History department are celebrating this violent criminal, elevating his name to virtual sainthood...

Blue3k:
Yes sack anyone who wants be insubordinate. You weirdos act like you're being oppressed by following legal lawful directives.

Guy,
Stop displaying your ignorance on tertiary institution issues. Get a dictionary and check the meaning of "strike" and "industrial dispute." From there you can make an informed argument on labour practices.

omonnakoda:
You are mixing things up .
12. Whether or not universities are privatized has nothing to do with this issue
3. Nigeria cannot afford free university education for the current population
3 whether it cost 300k or 1 million is down to market forces we need to improve the quality of our university education and emphasise quality over quantity. It has to be PAID FOR.
4. How it is paid for is an entirely different debate and one I welcome but with our population and debt the bitter truth is people have to pay if they want quality university education.

My comment was a general response to all the comments I've read here, so the issue of mix up does not arise.

Nigeria cannot afford number 3 according to you but can use about 25% of the budget to fund the national assembly? Nigeria is definitely not poor as the politicians want you to believe.

One major difference btw the first nations and the third world is the % of their budget allocated to the education of citizens. The system is so effective that you can opt out of the university to solve a global problem immediately you identify one. I am sure it was not done through a centralized system but an effective peer review system. The peer review mechanism in Nigeria university system will be greatly reduced with a centralized payroll system because IPPIS cannot be customized for such.


The end game of IPPIS is to further reduce the quality of public universities.

You've really made sound submissions for quality but are we there yet? If we have the state of the art facilities that can attract international students, we can go ahead and privatize.

Toxic hate for ASUU right here!

Well there is no need to emphasize the obvious that ASUU is a union to beat. A lot of Nigerians chose to be uninformed on the workings of academic institutions. They'll rather tout government propaganda. ASUU does not thrive on propaganda, the intellectuals see through the deceit of politicians

I may be right that over 90% of comments here are from graduates that benefitted from highly subsidised tertiary education that ASUU gave them at the expense of robust take home.

They'll come here to lament their fate and generalize based on that. They would rather have ASUU submit to FG's antic of privatising public universities through Babalakin (a capitalist) led FG negotiation team. One of the FG's proposal is to introduce a fee of 300, 000 - 500 000 for undergraduate programmes. This would price tertiary education beyond the reach of 80% of Nigerians. They see ASUU as a union that must be tamed to achieve this and willing tools are those that benefitted from a highly subsidised university education.

This same wailers would still come here and complain of senior ASUU members doing more than one job, well you can't blame them, they are just wallowing in information poverty.

The same short sightedness would make them register for a postgraduate degree without considering the industry need for that specialization. Postgraduate degrees are to solve problems you don't just register for a postgraduate course because you like the name, find a knowledge gap in your discipline and train your self to fill the gap. If you don't the senior ASUU members will continue to hold 3 or more adjunct lecturership positions and there is nothing you or the FG can do about that.

Stop thinking of universities as an IDP camp for the unemployed. ASUU is not your enemy, politicians are!!! They are not aware that our health institutions lack facilities and resources till Corona did a system reset. Should we wait till when we have a national crisis before we fund education?

Let's look up to (Corona) lock down babies in October/November

My concern is the absence of palliative for those without access to government funds. Provision should be made for unconditional cash transfer of #10, 000 to all Nigerians through the use of bvn.

Sharap there, if you like don't contribute anything to the national economy and be here disturbing us about ASUU. Lazy set of people, is it not the same ASUU people that can read on tv or can't call numbers during elections. My friend go and sit down, ippis is here to stay, if you don't like it you resign. All due process must be followed before peculiarity allowance should be restored. Better start seeking for approval for salary and wages commission or else it would continue to get slashed. Your mates are developing ventilators, you sit and use outdated curriculum.

Your idea that academic staff in universities lazy reveals your stock. Stop showing ignorance. Stop comparing those that just process memos to those that carry out teaching and research. It reeks of lack of understanding. Comparing professional association subscription to research is an all time low for you. If you are a dean, H.o.d or head of a committee it is seen as community service, stop the unequal comparisons. Guy use the internet during this lock down now! I can't teach you everything.

Most academic I know are subscribed to a minimum of 3 professional associations (Int'l, Nat'l& Specialization), it's just what it is. Leave your narrow group of friends and expand your horizon. It may open you up to what constitute academic work

If you are a product of a faulty tertiary education system, blame yourself. Stop generalizing. I've had wonderful lecturers that won international grants. I know.of lecturers who are in research teams in in the USA, Canada, UK, kenya and SA. These are teams with funding from Bill and Melinda, UN, NIH and co. Your narrow perspective is definitely not the state of the art in Nigeria.

Guy,
I understand that you're obsessed with ASUU. I am not the solution to your problem but I have helped out with reducing your ignorance.


Stay stafe and update your knowledge, skills and competencies.

awele186:
You have written a whole lot of jargon and also contradicting yourself. Lol everyone within a government circle is either a civil servant or a public servant. The definition of both is there for you to see and you can resign if you don't want to be called such. My dear i also recieve peculiarity allowance and if you don't have approval from salary and wages commission it would be removed when you join ippis.
You must also think mdas are just for core ministries forgetting mda means (ministries, department and agencies) even dpr are cbn are called mdas are the not under ippis. They were exempted because they kept a certain percentage of their revenue for running cost(personnel/capital expenditure). However you bring absolutely nothing to the government. You very lazy and lack the capacity to innovate and develop inventions. Just imagine calling 35k as what you use to publish journals that's change compared to what other people in mdas used to renew their yearly professional subscription.
If the non academic staff was not paid, they should sort it out with ippis as many of you work for different universities at the same time and you would be exposed soon enough. NUTAS is just another way to continue with the ghost workers, the Nigerian university system keep peddling.
Lastly the university system in Nigeria is very lazy, you carry out no research and you want to compare yourself to your counterparts in developed nations. Do you know how much foreign direct investment those universities bring to their nation or even grants. You sit down with your outdated curriculum and expect the world to revolve around you. If you like don't sort your issue with ippis and come online to rant. You want to resolve government subversion and still remain independent.

I have said before and I will say it again the government will still invite ASUU to the negotiating table because they see beyond the deceit of politicians.

All ye anti ASUU, see the politician as your common enemy, the COVID-19 pandemic has made that evident. They don't even know that our hospitals are poorly equipped. How will they know about the lack of reagents, learning resources and spaces, acute shortage of experts in certain disciplines on our campuses.

ASUU struggle is about quality and affordable Univ edu needed to provide the needed knowledge worker for our development efforts. Since most of us can't travel abroad

Guzel, Carbuyer83 and oshiox thank you for increasing the knowledge level of a lot of us here

awele186:
Oh please, what are Nigerian universities doing right now in terms of research and development. Universities in saner climes are developing prototypes of ventilators and ASUU is going on strike because of ippis. We know Nigerians don't know how lectures squander all the reserch grants given to them by Tetfund. It's just pathetic sha, they can't come up with ways to develop their igr, can't get research grants from ngos, can't generate their own electricity, can't develop or research anything. Just obsolete if you ask me. The only set of people government should not joke with are health practitioners and those in university teaching hospitals.


The politics of this higher education unions tire me. You can always sense the hidden disdain for ASUU in their comments. When you ask them what they've done to improve the system...that's a $1B question

You sound like one of the anti ASUU gang that lacks basic understanding of the idea behind the strike and those who trust politicians with their future.[/quote]1) Universities in saner climes are developing prototypes of ventilators and ASUU[/quote]......I believe you are referring to BUK[/quote]2) We know Nigerians don't know how lectures squander all the reserch grants given to them by Tetfund[/quote]....Please provide evidence cos left to me you know nothing. The three universities that attract the most Grants in Nigeria are i) University of Ibadan ii) University of Lagos iii) UNIJOS. They have what is called a research management office as a result you cannot squander grants because it's monitored. Read up on the history of Tetfund may be you'll better appreciate ASUU. Don't believe everything you read on the pages of newspapers if you don't have your fact.[/quote]3The only set of people government should not joke with are health practitioners and those in university teaching hospitals.[/quote]..
Again, you turn logic over its head. Who are those responsible for training them? ASUU members.

We shouldn't be blinded by hate, neither should we permit politicians to divide us. I interact a lot with with ASUU members and I read what government has done so far in refusing to fulfill it's part of the agreement it freely entered into. Why are we not holding politicians responsible? Because we prefer they oppress us and squander our common patrimony. Not forgetting that they also divide us long ethnic, religious and fake news lines. Unfortunately for them, ASUU sees beyond all this.

I sincerely respect both NMA and ASUU they both understand how to deal with these sets of corrupt and dishonest politicians.

dollext:
‘Wht is university contribution to national development?’ Wht if Govt decide to ignore dem and pay more attention to other sectors who have contributed immensely to national development and in the long run polytechnics graduates and private university students would be employed to feel d current vacancy? Let’s continue watching in a 3D television.

I am really surprised that you work in one, you can as well resign. I'll try to increase your knowledge a little, while you read up on the rest during this stay-at-home.

Universities provide the required highlevel manpower for all the sectors of the Nigerian economy. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic frontline Medical personnel in testing and treatment in Lagos, includes substantially academics from CMUL/LUTH and other tertiary health facilities. This is seen as community service. This is in addition to the teaching and research functions. Compare the fatality rates of Nigeria to that of the first nations. There you have your answer. Stop being myopic, selfish, think beyond your take home.

I've read a lot of selfish post like yours and I'll point out certain facts. You benefitted from a highly subsidised tertiary education and also employed in one, with your meagre scale from Contiss 8 - 15, can you successfully train 3 of your wards in the private institutions? Your guess is as good as mine. I've followed ASUU for a long period and I know they always get the government back to the negotiating table, how they do it I don't know. I only hope members of other unions would not proceed on strike after an agreement between them (just like we read about the EA wahala).

I think I agree with with ASUU that the strike is beyond IPPIS, it's for the survival of public tertiary institutions for those that are poor (and the rich). The end game of government is to privatise public universities which would make it unaffordable for majority of Nigerians cos right now Ngr is the poverty capital of the world.

This is not the first time that salaries of ASUU members are withheld by NGR leaders. It may not even be the last. It's better you take it in now that ASUU is a top notch union with strong ideology of cheap access to tertiary education as a fundamental right of qualified students. It's always disheartening when I see other unions in tertiary institutions working against ASUU when they've done next to nothing to in this regard. Government sees university unions as one and ASUU as the intellectual leader that sees through the deceit of politicians.

The politics of this higher education unions tire me. You can always sense the hidden disdain for ASUU in their comments. When you ask them what they've done to improve the system...that's a $1B question

Buliwyf:
Yeah just like the days of a fictional Noah right? Isn't it funny that all your references are usually centuries old fables that cannot be verified?

Human knowledge increase all the time and are constantly updated. But your Bible is stuck with the same old myths and no one can actually see anything claimed in there happening

The only proof you need that the bible is true and not just a fictional book is the accurate chronology and prophecies about the Jewish nation. According to the bible, the Jewish nation was set up as an example unto all other nations of the earth.

Ruling out a book you've hardly studied is not the best way to show knowledge. Knowledge has greatly increased hence the bible mobile app. Search the scriptures for the truth you seek. You may be knowledgeable about a lot of things but not on the bible.

Link the old testament to the new testament and you can then call me for a serious debate for or against the bible.


NB Modified

Although some misrepresentation of the prophecies occur all the time. Regarding this pandemic, we can trace it to the actions and inactions of men.

No be lie. Party way babes no dey, no food, no booze. Confra is destructive, if you survive the consistent precarious ordeal while in school, it takes a lot of dedication and tailored mental
toughness to pick up your life together and start all over again - Herein lies the problem: the post-effect of cultism, the demonic blood oaths that is taken with a pinch of salt by a lot of cultists, and finally the continually deceptive sense of belonging you will always have. If you are not mentally strong enough, it will incapacitate every ability of yours to reason logically and critically for your own personal development.Imagine the pain of coming to each court hearing with chains sitting on the floor as a criminal, imagine the pain of seeing you mother experience you go through each molestation while she strives to fight for your freedom, NOTE, NOT YOUR So CALLED CULT BROTHERS.

The pain in her eyes after seeing the judge refuse you bail or not being able to meet the bail terms and you are been thrown into the black Maria back to prison. It's not worth it young lads. Face your studies,do your fine boy with sense and make sure you graduate as at when due.

Please be wise, shun confra.

Cheers.

Your experience almost moved me to tears. It's really sad. I pray you find the peace and joy you seek.

It is experience like yours and similar ones that deepen the impact of saynotocultism campaign. He that has hear, let him hear.

Undergraduates may not find this unusual sermon and testimonies in religious organisations. They are now better informed about what constitutes life and death, it's my prayer that they choose life and live.
