Practising Engineering is really expensive worldwide and it is difficult, especially for low-income countries like Nigeria. When you compare how easy for a young lawyer, primary healthcare physician, pharmacist, Lab scientist and Physio to start their practice immediately after school you'd understand.

In one of my posts, I was blasting rich and wealthy Nigerian children for majoring in liberal art and lesser courses. This is actually the reason. It is easier for wealthy Nigerian children who want to practise to get fund.
Buhari's daughter studied photography even Otedola's own read history of art and the rest of the elite children majored in useless degrees. Imagine they all read mechanical, civil or chemical, software engineering, don't you think we will have numerous and prosperous engineering firms in Nigeria?

Russian flexing muscles on Ukraine just like SS3 student bullying primary 6pupil.

For those of you supporting What Putin is doing to his neighbor, I don't know what you stand to gain. But if na good thing Putin dey do, wey make you dey happy so, may you experience such in your life
Pls, don't quote me..!

With this comment, no wonder after slavery, Africa countries were colonised easy. Typical black no self pride, not protecting and fight for your interest, no long term strategic planning.

JOemmy:
Other states in the south might also pass laws that will ban processed cow meat that they can't guarantee their health condition from entering their states. This will make southerners to massively invest in the cow business.

Not possible. Have brewing drinks made in Lagos been banned in other part of Nigeria. Or cement in obajalan and ewekoro.

Vinstel:
See women everywhere, that gender ehn

The gender is so easy to embrace insane ideology.

Damn .omo this Saudi na better retirement plan for most footballer.I remember when the offered Messi close to a billion dollars yearly. Then dey pay baller's better money. Ronaldo should be thinking of how to leave yeye United to saudi. Seems Messi is collecting double of what he earns

Ronaldo is going to Dubai

She looks like Kidwaya. Are they siblings?

SE players celebrate too much. It's to celebrate accomplishment, when the actual goal hasn't been met.

Uzomacharles:
E be like e get wetin you SNIFF....

If you don't know what to comment then gerrat,is SE the only people you saw there?

Swiftlee:
Never forget to celebrate your little accomplishments and wins. Every little win is a blessing. That is how men rise beyond limits.

dfrost:
It's a morale booster.

nwajesus12:
bad belle

mrnelsono:
Oga when you appreciate the little things, the big ones will follow

I have been vindicated.

Totilopussylick:
Ez talking about the desert part of Dubai

And what's so special about this. Nature is beautiful especially when one use a good nikkon camera. I was expecting him to show us massive architectural edifice, well mapped city and man-made wonders.

Subtle racism and condescending behaviour; typical traits of desert niggarrrr towards dark skinned African they feel will we arent good enough

joyfull120:
If not for Nigerians and their mediocrity, who would even give this guy attention?

The song sef is so trashy. No album, just a one hit song, bad presentation for branding and marketing. Let him have the few months of publicity.

MEGA4BILLION:
Keep on taxing the the south then share the proceeds to the north. Wetin concern Aboki with coke.
When will he tax kunu and brukutu?

Govt would tax where there is huge revenue. Kunu and brukutu products are not money-spinning. Aside that, it's done in a low production way.

Mr.man use a non-pity Ogun get justice for your son, stop playing with this heartless brown envelope bastards.

Killed my heir apparent, the court couldn't give justice to the killers and they are walking free. Rather go the Italian mafia way

paulolee:
my professor friend do say ekiti state have the most learned people in Nigeria and I do argue..
he said his reason is because that state have more educated people, more professors n less illiterates but I still accept his points but with this achievement this Yoruba demon av done, I think I'll call my friend n tell him dt I now share the same opinion...
this win isnt an easy one...it may take another 100 years for a Nigerian to do this..

Go to Ekiti and see how local that place is. Decrepit and ancient building, No urban planning.

Do any one recommend buying luminous tubular battery especially the ones sold on jumia?

zed7:
The parents or guardians should be arraigned for child abuse. This isn't even funny.

Is it wrong if they were betrothed. Doesn't mean the married would be consummated.

Husiapo:
Honestly. It's not about starting but completion.

And it's not about completion, but making it very effective.

Ekpekus:
Don't allow emotions becloud your sense of judgment..
What is the crime of the woman whose picture and details are put up?
Have you been accused before for a crime of someone just because you are associated with the person? If yes, how did it feel? If no, then just reason am first...

The child is a minor. Therefore, the parent are the caregivers and legal guardian. One can't rule out the parent involvement in this kind of case. Investigation should be made if the parents are aware of any deviant behaviour. If known and didn't report, they bear the consequences.

Ekpekus:
I get your point... however by law if anyone commit a crime, he/she does the time...
So, from what you have written, is there any substantial evidence to prove this woman's involvement? BTW, we don't even know if this person has been rightly identified before bloggers put up her pictures and place of work.
Again, minors can do their time for crime in juvenile centers

I had one in our midst. The parent was aware of his deviant behaviour. The boy was expelled from FG school at SS3. Parent transfer the child to a state school to start SS1. The boy became a bad influence.

Gadafii:
Lots of kids die every week in agege, mushin, and other slums due to forceful initiation into cults, just like this latest victim, unfortunately we don't get to hear about it, cos they don't have people to make it trend, lots and lots of them die

Make authority handle this matter, all these are not neccessary

As they say a close mouth is a close destiny. The family of sylvester cried out and go the needed attention. If not for that, trust me, this case would be swept under the carpet.

We4all:
The family should mourn their son in peace. All these interviews they have been granting to different press crews will jeopardize the investigations.

If the cousin hadn’t called the alleged killers out, probably they would still be in the country.

See wetin this wan dey yarn. Like you don't live In Nigeria and understand our justice system. This case is now in the public domain. With more media attention, the judge and police won't be sentiment. How it's been handled will determine the level of trust the public have with the criminal justice system.

slawormiir:
Damnnn niggar
May the soul of the young niggarrrr rest in peace

Teach your children street ruggedity and toughness

This father looks like an OG. Maybe he doesn't want the boy to grow up to be hard. It's better to be rugged in the corporate world . Street is nasty . You get more chips( money) in the corporate world and smoked in the streets.

Terrible

Bifwoli:
Its ok not to get married .Jesus ,Oprah ,Leonardo DiCaprio ,Tyra Banks ,Matthew Perry etc are famous people who never got married.

It's hard to survive as an elder in Nigeria without a family. Don't think your cousins or siblings and their children will be there for you; they have theri own life issues to face.

faithfull18:
Hmmn, there are females like this oh.

Are you like the op?

sagieramos:
Even here in Nigeria, some sound engineer earn far more than banker

Know the difference between someone working a in bank( teller, cashier, marketing,
DSA, security, attendants) and a banker( investment bankers, top management).

Sleekfingers:
Diploma is enough for music abi? Do you know how broad music is? You think I am talking about those pangolo music, most nigerian musicians dey do?


That's why nigerian government need to invest more in education......

I am speaking in form of industrial amount and what we need as a nation for development and solve our growing unemployment rates.

1stGenAmerican:
I disagree. Amazon was far down that list a few years ago but look where it is now. The top used to be dominated by petroleum companies but look at it now. The number of petroleum companies will continue to decrease.

If so many people keep in Africa, India, China, and the US keep studying stem careers in large numbers, all of those people will be competing for the same jobs against each other and those with experience who have been working in the field. That contributes to mass unemployment.

The Law of Supply and Demand

The current and future is STEM courses and career in that field keeps evolving creating opportunities for people in the industry. From the industrial revolution to our current reality. It's Very easy for STEM professionals to adapt to the reality at any given point in time.

The Law of supply and Demand doesn't come into play.
We are going into space exploration, can you imagine how bright the opportunities abound for STEM professionals?

1stGenAmerican:
I agree with those who said they follow their passion. Who wants to work for years doing something that they don’t love?

Another reason is they pay attention to trends and what is going on in the world now compared to what will be going on in the world in a few years. So many people are preparing for STEM careers that the fields will soon be saturated, making it more competitive and hard to find a job.

Someone said Petro Engineering. Outside of Nigeria, countries are rapidly making plans because of global warming. Petroleum causes pollution so developed countries and car manufacturers are switching to alternative forms of energy. Outside of Nigeria, the demand for petroleum engineers willl start to tank and eventually become obsolete. Things popular today will decrease in popularity.

These parents and kids have experienced life in other countries and see that it is about balance and they are preparing a life for these kids outside of Nigeria.

Petroleum companies still top the list of fortune 500 for many years. Engineering is broad and wide. It's easier for pet eng to switch to alternative energy industry, in form of training or pursue Post graduate studies.

Sleekfingers:
.


You called photography, music and catering and hotel management unpopular.......it obvious, you don't know what you are saying.......

The op knows what he's saying. Look at fortune 500 companies in the world, tell me where photography, music, catering and hotel management fall into. Those are courses you don't need to attend a university. An associate or a diploma is enough.

All stems courses. In a country like Nigeria, we need to refine our crude oil, design and build the car we ride, power our home, road and industries, and control our Internet.

ednut1:
maybe thats what her brain can carry/ she is not intelligent na. If i have a child with average intelligence its stupidity to make hom or her study mathematics or accounting. When sociology dey lol

international relations like Saraki's daughter or other Liberal art courses, that doesn't have much quantitative reasoning.

Telegram234:
U are a fu3king illiterate.
Those course dont matter here in Nigeria.
But they matter a lot internationally.
Do u think those one will even plan to work in Nigeria. They get their BSc and relocate to abroad..

Before you call someone an illiterate, look at yourself in the mirror.

Averages earners means : entry level position which is 55000AUD yearly, 4583AUD monthly before tax. With payment of tax, take home will be less than that.
The attached pic is a questioned ask. That amount is not enough to survive with.

ednut1:
Buhari is not intelligent, do you expect his kids to be intelligent. Children of the rich are dominating stem abroad and other lucrative courses. But in buharis case the kids are dull too and will struggle in stem

In as much we all have issues with Mr
Buhari, we should be objective with our opinion. What about Otedola's daughter that read History of art in her UG?
