Gentle reminder that those numbers you see on Piggyvest or any bank for that matter are.....just numbers that someone or a computer input to make it look like your money is sitting pretty somewhere all the time. The reality is a little different. The actual (or real) money has gone into different investments across Nigeria and across the world; and these are investment decisions made by someone somwhere who thinks he knows better than average people. Also, some of that money has gone into private pockets and used to buy houses in London and Dubai, because (what do you know) most people aren't going to wake up one day and want to just withdraw all their money at once. Some of that money has been badly invested and generating negative returns, but of course, you the investor is never told that. Instead, they just punch more numbers into your account to look like you are making money.

The whole thing falls apart when shit hits the fan and people now need their money. Piggyvest in particular is an investment platform I can never trust. One, they have track records of making bad investment choices (e.g. Agropartnerships, Farmcrowdy, etc.) which is a sad reflection of their due dilligence team, and they do not open their books to their so-called customers so that the customers know exactly what is being done with their money. They also have a track record of denying when their nyash is opened in public, e.g. with the dude from that church that they may have invested money with. They also often promise unreasonable returns that don't reflect the reality of the Nigerian economy, e.g. over 25%. And more importantly, while NDIC itself says very clearly on its instagram that piggyvest is not NDIC insured, Piggyvest on their own website claims that they are NDIC insured. The duplicity! They are also no bank, just a savings platform. But what do I know? Good luck to you all who will put your money is any hole you see on the internet, as long as some returns are flowing in. What you learnt with the fall of Agropartnerships and co, you will soon learn again with Piggyvest. And when it happens, I'll be here laughing at your foolery...because you have been warned!

When I did a quick check on the number of technical colleges in India, it was around 15,000 colleges. It's no surprise that Indians are some of the most skillful persons in the world, a trait which propelled them to being CEOs of top companies. They don't wholly depend on imported technology, they devise improvise and improve. And that's how they began launching spacecrafts. Read about the man called Abdulkalam. You remember that noisy generator Lister, read about it. The Keke Napep that's now ubiquitous is an innovation from India.

Now, let's dovetail to Nigeria. We shockingly have 129 technical colleges for a 200+ million people. Per capita, India has new technical college for every hundred thousand people while Nigeria has one per 1 million persons. The current drive by the likes of Bugaje to restore and improve technical education is laudable. It's one of the few things I give a thumbs up to the present government.

tunjijones:
Nice one from t-pain. You try for this one.

Most gen z children don't know technical college.

TimeManager:
Mr President is keen on reviving technical colleges nationwide. He recently approved N45,000 monthly stipend for all technical students across the country. He has subsequently approved the renovation of the schools and installation of standard equipments across board. God bless Nigeria.

A 2 nights quickies with a family female friend which resulted me being infected with a stubborn STD that am still battling with now. As if she knew what she did to me, she has not stepped her feet to our since then. I have not got close to my wife since for fear of infecting her.

Falling in love to the extent of buying fone for a girl. Easy buy for that matter ooo. And the broke girl dey expect me to always call her.

No matter what you do, never date a completely brokgirl. Especially, when entitlement mentality come join the tin.

CommonSense1967:
Smart man. Play along, then show Wike sege later.

Everyone will collect sooner or later.

You showed your hand way too early especially when Wike has almost total control of the House.

Last year, it was Mmesoma who put JAMB on the spot, this time it's the glitch !
It's hard not to read internal sabotage into this.
The Registrar is humbled.
Instead of a resit, JAMB should just remark the earlier attempt of the candidates and give them their true scores.

pansophist:
The best way to get a wife is through referral (AKA arranged marriage).



The area that you might have to compromise on is on attraction, because a referred wife might not make your preek stand

But in the end, we will all settle. It is up to you if you want a beautiful marriage, or a warzone because you married a lady with a big behind.

Juliearth:
lovelybobo please take this advise. The good thing is that your son is good in writing codes and so he can self-develope in that aspect while studying in a related field that our average Nigerian universities can handle... Maybe Computer Science.

He's right about the importance of animal protein like eggs in overall development of a child.

But he's wrong by attributing mass failure to high cost of eggs.

By creating a society that rewards talent and virtues, not crime and vices. If you show off with money, cars and material things in Brazil, they will dislike you. Some societies are still sane. We can choose to remove our sim card from insanity.

oyichi:
The bini or ubini people as it is supposed to be called brought a lot of slaves from abor slave market during the Era of slavery but when slavery was abolished, many where dumped in some certain areas within that region, so if igbanke people say that they are ibos, they may be right but that does not mean that they own the land they are staying, if you want to remember history, make sure you do it in full. Slaves don't act as king in bini kingdom, that we let everything go does not mean you should take advantage of it
