You posted the links so you should have read them.

UK- lectures joined the larger labour union cos they're part of it (like NLC/TUC going on strike... ASUU must join)

Kenya- was in 1994... Pikin wey Dem born dt time will be 20yrs old in 2014.

India- were specific to two higher institutions.

Compare the above with Nigeria's incessant nationwide ASUU strikes. One is ongoing.

tensor777: That's not it . You are all over the place with your posts jumping from one unrelated topic to the next and even confusing economic activities with economic development.
I prefer a more disciplined opponent not foreigner who is merely intersyed in taking potshots at Nigeria
I am versatile enough to draw from my wide and varied knowledge, experience and logical reasoning ability hence I won't let you and ROSSIKE mislead some Nairalanders with your narrow mindedness.


I live work and play in 9ja. I get green passport too.
I wish to see Nigeria develop faster than you can imagine and her citizenry enjoying this.
If we do not say it as it is we can't change the mess we are currently in.

tensor777: You don't know what you are talking about as you don't have a basic understanding of economics. I am through with this pointless debate
The debate is pointless because your line of argument had met a superior one but you're too proud to cede the fact.

We have digressed a lot just to prove that Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja and Murtala Muhammed International Airport Lagos which are Nigeria's best are below par in terms of provided services quality when you compare to international airports in other nations.


Better luck next time.

tensor777: I don't know why he keeps talking about the 1970s as that was really the hey day for the elites. They really had it all in those days as there was very little competition whereas the demand for well educated graduates was very high.
This is why (see pic)

Nigeria produced far less amount of oil in the 70s and 80s than today but had a higher GDP and the standard of living was way better back then.

tensor777: Man you need to end these arguments because you don't know what you're talking about.
So gold and shipping is a sign of development
And since when did Tourism become a yardstick for industrial development.
I referenced Ghana and Kenya because despite tourism and gold THEY STILL cannot balance their budgets without relying on significant amounts of foreign aid.
I put it that you are incorrect to claim that Ghana and Kenya can't balance their budgets without foreign aid . Nigeria is the one that needs foreign aids to eradicate polio, HIV/AIDS, terrorism, bunkering and piracy. Not Ghana.

tensor777: And how exactly would you do that? Fine the government would have to invest massively in technical and scientific education, the population would have to be kept in check and whilst this is taking place the the government and the people would have to eliminate conspicuous consumption, corruption ,waste and inefficiency
Finally there would have to be an entrepreneurial class that would be able to take advantage of this this cadre of trained engineers and scientists when they come to the labour market by producing goods and services for the EXPORT MARKET
That is how the Asian Tigers Developed. That is how the Chinese developed.
Any other model is just living in cloud cuckoo land to be honest.
In the late 70s Nigeria's economy was ahead of the Asian Tigers (Taiwan S Korea, Singapore and Hong Kong) who focused on massive investment on technology and a diversified economy building financial services centers in the 80s and 90s.
Malaysia came to buy oil palm seeds from Nigeria... Vietnam, Thailand.... All these countries are more developed than Nigeria today.
We are always talking about visions 20XX that never materialises. Just the way you sound.

tensor777: Man you arguments are just baffling. What is this crude oil you keep going on about. It is in fact a raw material that Nigeria sells on the international market to industrialsed countries. Having oil does not in of itself guarantee development or even provide mass employment.
What it does is give the FGN A STEADY stream of revenue - $30 billion - which they can use to provide basic services and maintain infrasructure.
However to get that amount without oil and without indusrialisation would mean either that citizens are taxed to the hilt and that Nigeria would be dependent on foreign aid as are a lot of African countries like Ghana and Kenya.
Your argument is flawed.
Nigeria is not any more developed than Ghana or Kenya. Steady stream of oil income and Nigeria is not any better than the Ghana and Kenya you claim rely on foreign aid. That tells me Nigeria has messed up.
Foreign aid reliance as you claim is not even true by the way. Kenya has tourism and tea while Ghana has gold and shipping

ROSSIKE: Please stop this romanticization of elitism. I prefer we have 135 average unis than 5 or 6 elite unis for pampered elite kids.
Stop speaking grammar.

As we speak it's only in Nigeria that students who should be studying are at home doing nothing.
I'd rather the 'elite' (permit me to borrow from you) unis of the 70s without strike, producing quality graduates than the mess of strike unis we have today.

Average unis indeed.

This Ghanaian higher education system today is reminiscent of Nigeria's in the 70s. Few in number but delivering quality education. Witnessed by the high number of Nigerian patronising Ghanaian higher institutions.
TravelRe: Passengers Remove Their Clothes At Unbearably Hot Murtala Muhammad Airport Hall by LRNZH(m): 5:37pm On Dec 01, 2013
ROSSIKE: No it wasn't. It was skewed in favour of a tiny, favoured elite (an offshoot of colonialism). In the 70s, we had about 5 or 6 universities for a population of 90 million people. Those graduates all got a job and a car the minute they came out of uni, because they were so few qualified people and many jobs to fill up. Today, we have 135 universities for a population that has only doubled in size since the 70s. It is no surprise that access to resources has become more 'democratised'..
Those unis of the 70s were internationally competitive. Today's myriad of unis are patronised by kids whose guardians have no option of sending them to Ghana, India, Malaysia, Cyprus, UK, Canada or US.

So much for' democratised' (sic) development in Nigeria.

tensor777: What point are you making. Take it from me Nigeria was not rich in any way shape or form in the 1970s That a few thousand middle-ranking and senior civil servants could afford to drive brand new Peugeots tells you nothing about the standard of living of the average household in Nigeria. You do realise that most people then were subsistence farmers and petty traders and there were just a handful of universities.
What's more manufacturing and the wholesale trade was dominated by the Lebanese oligopolys like PZ and Leventis
Rich or whatever word you want to use.
Those 70s farmers and traders, civil servants trained our parents and some of us or we relied on abundant government scholarships. Today, how many farmers and traders or any other artisans can adequately send their wards to school? Government scholarships are non existent except you are well connected or a militant.

If you're too young to know this consult your folks.

ROSSIKE: Listing countries like Canada, Norway and the US alongside Nigeria is ludicrous. The ''oil curse'' does not refer to already industrialized nations or to tiny oil-rich fiefdoms like UAE and Kuwait.

Educate yourself on the Resource Curse, which is an important area of academic study.


Resource curse

'The resource curse, also known as the paradox of plenty, refers to the paradox that countries and regions with an abundance of natural resources, specifically point-source non-renewable resources like minerals and fuels, tend to have less economic growth and worse development outcomes than countries with fewer natural resources. This is hypothesized to happen for many different reasons, including a decline in the competitiveness of other economic sectors (caused by appreciation of the real exchange rate as resource revenues enter an economy, a phenomenon known as Dutch disease), volatility of revenues from the natural resource sector due to exposure to global commodity market swings, government mismanagement of resources, or weak, ineffectual, unstable or corrupt institutions (possibly due to the easily diverted actual or anticipated revenue stream from extractive activities).


The idea that natural resources might be more an economic curse than a blessing began to emerge in the 1980s. In this light, the term resource curse thesis was first used by Richard Auty in 1993 to describe how countries rich in natural resources were unable to use that wealth to boost their economies and how, counter-intuitively, these countries had lower economic growth than countries without an abundance of natural resources.[1] Numerous studies, including one by Jeffrey Sachs and Andrew Warner, have shown a link between natural resource abundance and poor economic growth.[2] This disconnect between natural resource wealth and economic growth can be seen by looking at an example from the petroleum-producing countries. From 1965 to 1998, in the OPEC countries, gross national product per capita growth decreased on average by 1.3%, while in the rest of the developing world, per capita growth was on average 2.2%.[3] Some argue that financial flows from foreign aid can provoke effects that are similar to the resource curse.[4]'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_curse
You have a brain. Think!

You chose the countries you want to analyse for resource curse. You say the others are already industrialised or fiefdoms. I laugh.
It is simple. The right things they did to become industrialised before oil is the same thing they are doing and managing their oil resources better.
You couldn't industrialise before oil and still can't manage the oil resources and you call it resource curse
You messed up.


By the way if you believe in resource curse how come you think Nigeria is doing a lot better today compared to the 70s? Nigeria can't be better and still be cursed na?
I too know book but no wan think.

tensor777: Man you are all over the place with your posts. Are you talking about corruption MMIA Ghana v Nigeria or what.
Learn to state your points coherently.
But lets stick to civil servants driving peugeots in the 1970's. Fine how many were they then and what was their level and how were these purchases financed.
You are making my point. Nigeria's development stage in the 70s was commensurate with the size of its population. But the population has overgrown it's development stage hence civil servants can't afford brand new cars (not even assembled in Nigeria options exist). Try and finance a car or house purchase today if you will not be enslaved with the 18% or more interest rate.

ROSSIKE: If they had oil and gas they would most likely have succumbed to the 'oil curse' of other developing nations, for whom other sectors became 'unviable' to the business elite once oil and gas deposits were discovered. Afterall Nigeria also exported a variety of things like them before the discovery of oil.

Also, trying to analyse the Nigerian situation is not ''making excuses''. It is using your brain to analyse why such and such is the way it is. Every situation has a reason or history that led to it.
Oil curse is an excuse peddled by countries to account for their mismanagement of oil resources.
Look at the list below of oil producing countries ranked by their volume of oil production
I want you to point to up to 50% of the top ones cursed by oil.

Canada produces more oil than Nigeria. Is Canada cursed by its oil?
Again stop making excuses for Nigeria.

Guy !
Na pomo (hide) and shaki (intestine and gut) be meat?
In the 70s civil servants were buying brand new Peugeot (top cars of their time assembled in Nigeria). How many civil servants fit buy brand new G - class or Range? No be used cars from Europe and US we dey call new car?
My brother the world has improved from 70s to today but Nigeria no follow. Because they have improved their technology and economy and we get access to those doesn't imply that Nigeria has improved significantly.
If you correct for Nigeria's foreign exchange earning and about 600 billion US dollars of oil money embezzled so far due to corruption she is a failure.

Go and see Kotoka International Airport in Accra, Ghana. It is more modern and functional than MMIA and Nnamdi Azikiwe Abuja Airport combined.


ROSSIKE: What has ''got worse''? I beg make we hear word. In the 70s kids ran around nake.d in the villages. You would eat a plate of food with ONE MEAT in it. That was the norm. Today, even mechanics eat dishes filled with all kinds of exotic meats and vegetables. Food is plentiful and cheap. Kids are driving around in Jeeps. In the 70s, rich men used to ride Peugeout 404. Poor men rode Molue, and Lagos was a cesspool of filth and garbage. UNLIKE TODAY. Many states have improved compared to the 70s.

ROSSIKE: They are still not similar given that Thailand has just 64 million mouths to feed while Nigeria has 170 million! So Thailand can afford to spend $1 billion on a bus station, unlike Naija.

If I might add, Thailand lacks Nigeria's social problems - ethnic, religious etc. Their main ethnic group comprises 75% of the population, and 95% of the country are Buddhists! So you will always have less problems there compared to a place like Nigeria, especially in development stages as nations.
Na this one b development stage?
Hmmm retrograde development you mean.
Fela saw all this in the 70s. It has only got worse.

Thailand's major exports include Thai rice, textiles and footwear, fishery products, rubber, jewellery, cars, computers and electrical appliances.
Imagine if Thailand has some oil and gas.
Please stop making excuses for Nigeria.

Hey guys. I need help.
Note 2 bootloop issues:
I've had my note 2 for a while (JB 4.1.2). I rooted it via odin successfully. I then re-partitioned my external SD card so I can use some part of it as an emulator for additional phone internal memory since note 2 doesn't use the external SD card memory for apps.
I created fat32, ext4 and swap memory partitions.
However, the phone could only access the fat32 memory partition.
So I used swapper2 and swapper apps (off Google playstore) to try and manually assign the SD card swap partition on the phone.
Now the phone bootloops endlessly.
I have reinstalled stock room (alongside PIT file) via odin successfully but it won't fix the bootloops.
The error message I get when I boot to recovery mode is Failure to mount efs (scary).

Any ideas on how to fix this?

There is news making rounds about the (lack of) willingness of the present Gov't to quell the BH menace.

You can read here so we don't derail the thread.

tinkinjo: Do you understand yourself? If Libya and even Syria with better armed forces couldn't defeat rebels what made you think that Nigeria can? And who told you which side the international community would be supporting?

So long as we ignore calls for a national conference, we 're just waiting for the evil day.
Nothing short of a Sovereign National Conference (or a revolutionary coup d'etat) can solve Nigeria's problems with minimal chaos.

EasternLeopard: But MEND Started during OBJ era and ended in Yar adua regime. So why couldn't OBJ stop them.
OBJ was in the process of acquiring warships to wipe the Niger Delta of all MENDish parasites...
But along came traitor Atiku who leaked the plan to the press to gain sympathy from the SS for his political ambitions.

If not for Atiku.... Any miscreant would have preferred to terrorise other neighbouring countries not Nigeria.
Dem for hear wehnnn....

PEREP: So Amnesty came from Northerner abihuh Let's learn to put discuss objectively. The Leaders of South South brought Amnesty and Yaradua agreed to that term. Now, a Niger Deltan is the Number one man, where are the leaders in the North? Have they stood up to be counted? They are rather crying for 2015 while the whole region go into ruins for all they care.
Go and listen to the Interview granted by President Bush Jnr on the commemoration of September 11 anniversary in 2011. He gave details on what it means to be a War time President. That you are even seeing rail roads completed, Privatization of Power Sector among many other strides is a confirmation that GEJ is a Manager.

We are where we are today because the likes of IBB, OBJ and Co have for long used "power" to bottle up agitations in the country and it is simply bursting out and now been managed by a GEJ (no be easy thing)

I want to believe that Rossikk mumu and the nameless others were either deported from one western country or the other.

I am amazed that we still have freaks like them defending gross corruption, ineptitude and mismanagement in Gov't by GEJ's PDP.

All of you claiming that corruption and mismanagement have reduced in Nigeria will continue witness progress in a similar guise in your affairs.

taharqa: I knew you were ging to link me to this Source.

This was what the Source said the President ACTUALLY said (ie the words in double quotation marks):



Having 'strong links as to those involved in this terror war' IS NOT THE SAME as 'knowing the SPONSORS of BH'!! If you did English in Skul, it should not be difficult to understand the difference bw what he said and what you (and the Newspaper's Title) apparently interpreted it as.
Ok. Good for you. No wonder going after BH strong links has become pleading with them for amnesty while they butcher people in excess of 180.

You're slower than your president. And I'm not exaggerating.

You do not need to search too far. Lemme manage your ingnorance.

GEJ claimed to know BH sponsors on Sept 02, 2011 in Abuja while launching the new national driver’s license and number plates. Link below:

Rossikk: You have an evil mindset which is why you veer straight to inconveniences. I am free because I drove back home today with no problems, have had a nice dinner, and even tipped my gateman. His smile alone made my day. Soon I'll be stepping out to have a drink with my guys and maybe some pepper soup. I couldn't do that in the UK and US when I lived there. Too much pressure. See? You can be happy in Nigeria if you let yourself be happy. But if all you care to think of is your pothole and generator noise, then live out your life in misery all you want. Wasted life.
If things were working well in Nigeria, why do you need a gateman in dt ur small compound? Why do you pay taxes? What are the Police and other security agencies there for?

The unfortunate gateman guy could do better with his brain than to waste his life virtually doing nothing waiting for you to tip him.

You're totally an embarrassment to Nairaland Forum to begin with.
