Just funny the way we all come here and form Chinua Achebe and Wole Soyinka,.....if he does not intend to be a teacher, as if some of you are perfect at your own jobs! I am sure even with his level of English he can teach most subjects apart from English (thats even if the topic is not a typo). . Pathetic lots!

if there is a nobel laureate for Super Moms you surely deserve one!!!

A real inspiration to people in all ramification of life.

Well Done!

Maybe I did not understand your points, maybe if you had written them in Yoruba i would have understood ....

AjanleKoko: I thought I had stated it earlier in some posts. I can't quote them because we're on this page unfortunately, but if you go to the first and second pages on this thread, you can review my initial comments.

Essentially I found most of the generalizations rather amusing, some of them outright silly. But because nobody dey know pass, I felt it would be good to subject them to the scrutiny of fellow Nigerians.

dont know who 'dirtied' convo with this accent thing
but if this dude is recruited into the NSE etc would you say
he has inferiority complex or superiority complex?

Lol, I really don't know Ibukun Adebayo to determine weather he was brought up in Nigeria or not. Maybe I did not pass my message across well enough. When AOPs talk on radio I believe their first responsibility is to their audience. This accent thing is not local to Lagos alone, listen to some privately owned radio stations in other states and you will find this true as well. A friend that works as one also has the accent while on radio and I know very well he has never been to Togo so where is the accent coming from? What I am trying to say is, why should anyone who has never had any reason to go outside of Nigeria have a foreign accent?

just to add some info to this thread, for those who want to learn more about data analysis you can visit Coursera.org . Go to courses and enrol for any course you think will shed more light on the topic for you.

lovely video so in love with this song....Definately a new style from Chidinma video and song itself is a total deviation from the noble act of Chidinma

While not having much work experience I believe some of the OPs comments are true regarding the attitude of our people, but some of these attitudes where adopted trough years of living poverty and military dictatorship.
To the first part of being crude and unsophisticated, Technologically we are still developing as a country so being crude will likely be seen from that aspect, seems to be correct but from attitude, it would be a different scenario, what is acceptable (e.g having a gay as a friend) to the foreign guy might not really sit well with the Nigerian because. In the aspect of sophistication, I am seriously trying to understand what that means....

In terms of being rude and aggressive, I can say that is quite a generalization that is so wrong because some tribes are quite known to be submissive and like @Aj pointed out, that is a thorny issue which i would not like to go into.

When to come to office protocols like I said earlier I am still starting in this regard so I will fly over but outside the office walls, that is so true. Ordinary simple queues we tend to shunt.

To the planning and improvisation attitude, we most times like to get the job done quickly and this is not helped by our fire fighting attitude.

To the opinionated part, when we are not zombies we have minds and the what is the mind for? If we have an opinion about an issue isn't it right for us to voice such out ( i think your oyibo friend @aj is looking for a submissive/slave Nigerian ojere or the white guy just wants us to accept everything he has said hook line and sinker? These are the same guys that will come and say "can't these people use their brains? Now we have we voice our opinion they complain and @AJ will accept hook line and sinker as well....

trustworthiness is one issue we really really need to get right we can still live with some of the points made here but we can never move forward without trust!

To the desperation part, any poverty ravaged society will also tend towards this part, the black americans, the asians and other african countries also suffer from some of this same issue.

All societies must learn to channel its shortcoming towards productive areas we are not perfect but some issues need addressing, @Aj what you have failed to state is weather you accept with these generalizations or not. In the long and short of the story what your oyibo friend generally want us to do is behave totally like them. Some of these generalizations are found in even developed societies of the world. This thing has nothing to do with being foreign trained or locally trained it is just plain attitude.

*To the foreign accent, I have stopped listening to Nigerian radio stations because 90% of the AOPs always sound foreign and I begin to wonder does this give them a sense of accomplishment, superiority or sophistication (just like @aj's friend want us to be) or they are just suffering from Inferiority complex?

double post

Laughing at your points here, here is a man who is not here to defend himself and you said stories. I wonder where you got this your street story of you heard he masterminded the sinking of ship carrying bibles. The same person that quotes the bible? He was not a perfect man no doubt. Abiola may be dead but yet Nigeria has suffered more for that singular decision. If going by the same thoughts then Nigeria also will continue to suffer because our government annulled a free and fair election!

DailyNews: I learnt that he was a religious fanatic, and fought ruthlessly against Christianity in Nigeria!

Learnt he masterminded the sinking of a ship carrying Holy Bible!

And truly from stories I have read about him, he was a civilian military general working with the military guys to climb to power!

Now I see why he failed. But I liked him then based on my shrewd perception then.

Anyway, RIP MKO, at least, your name is in the history of Nigeria.

as dem dey do the cinema/orimolade side make dem no forget say their abandoned work dey maternity too o!

If most of these students have mobile phones then I dont think charging their pads will become a problem!

As for the scheme in itself I hope one commissioner does not hijack the deal to open a shop at osogbo to start selling computers, due to this scheme!

gratiaeo: Yes, we acknowledge that the
Governor has
promised to give schools a
face-lift...and even though
all that still remains at the
realm of 'promises'...and
we thank him for that, but
such face lift should not
also involve giving shoes to
people who don't have feet.
So, let out great governor
in his best of intentions,
divert the funds for these
computers to other
immediate needs, like
desks, quality teachers, until we have electricity, conducive
environment for those hitech
tools.
computers/ipad don't
(as yet) charge/run on candles!

All the secondary
schools... would these
computers/ipad charge on
electricity or candles?

~Bluetooth:
Power corrupts people.When you are outside the corridor of power,you feel the person occupying that seat of power is bad but when you get there,you become the best villain around.

Gowon never wanted to leave power until Murtala kicked his butt out of power.Babangida promised to return to civilian rule until he became unpopular and had to succumb to the cries of the people after after 8 years in power.Abacha did all he could but ended up dying in power.Obj wanted 3rd term by all means but he failed because the NASS won't compromise.Yardau despite all odds and manipulations by his closest pals,he died.

One would have expected an opportunist like jonathan to accept the will of God and let things happen naturally but here he is;victimizing people by using the instrument of power he accused turai and tilde of denying him to intimidate people who oppose him.what goes around comes around.

There is a God is charge of payback,Jonathan should learn from the past.Nothing lasts forever.

A wonderful piece I wish Nigerian politicians can read....May your knowledge continue to grow!

While techno have definately upgraded in the type of phones they make nowadays the same cannot be said of the ones they made years back. People will continue to be reluctant in buying their phones (due largely to the type of phones they came out with) and I don't see this changing any time soon even with their upgraded version phones. I am not a market analyst but its simple knowledge that Nokia even though they have lost a huge market share in the smartphone world they still remain a popular brand for developing markets like Nigeria where people don't have money to buy the iphones, galaxies and window phones of this world. Nokia has built its reputation on DURABLE and EFFICIENT phones and people have all come to respect and know its phones for these two attributes..remember the saying AS Durable as a 3310?
The same cannot be said of phones produced by techno in the past, from the problem of over heating, poor screen display to bad batteries all these problems made people loose confidence in them. I could remember seeing a techno phone with a Nokia battery once! I have heard positive reviews of the n3 and seen the n7 myself and its a beauty for the price it is offered with its capabilities. The problem I have with it is, will I be able to repair the phone if it gets faulty, are there serviceable part around? Remember even those Nokia phones that cost 3500 are repairable. HTC was also a start up like Techno but they made better phones unlike what techno started with and people don't compare it with Techno (seriously no one would).
I have decided to use Nokia has a yardstick because they seem to be the only phone manufacturer that remembers that not everyone has money to buy phones above N50000.
Overtime if Techno continue to make improvements on their products and address some of the issues above they will even have larger share of our market because there will be renewed confidence in their products.

When JAMB finally outwits the supposed smart candidates, rather than get a round of applause they are summoned by the house of Assembly what a joke. Most of the candidates who failed this exam most probably went into the exam hall with foreign materials but JAMB outwitted them this time around no doubt.
A neighbor of mine who sat for the exam and scored 175 the only subject he passed (scored 51) was Agric Science and that was the only subject he could not find expo (cheat) for...
