There is really fire on the mountain. Dividend yield of 12% not even attractive again. I see the price going down to between 10.50-11

Forceful kidnap and conversion of a minor to Islam is worse than raping someone to death.

Can you really listen to yourself??

You say when such cases are reported in the north, "ALL accused persons are shielded by the Emirate council". Smh. Dude, aren't you taking your exaggeration too far?? Haba. Your hatred has made you distort facts so much I doubt you can even believe yourself if you told yourself the truth!

Did you even read up above how two of the six suspects were granted bail at the behest of one Chief?? What do you call that? Is that also Emirate council shielding the rapists??

I don't just know what part of Christianity encourages this level of needless hatred. The one I practice certainly has no room for such.

Lola is the cause of all this! Ever since she married Peter, she poisoned Peter's mind against his brothers! Their mother saw the devil in her and warned her son but she refused to listen. See the side where Paul said that the promise he made to his father was broken, it was because his father talked to him when he saw the high-handedness of Lola and made him (Paul) to promise that nothing would come in-between him and his brother. But Lola was hell bent on grabbing Peter to herself. Telling him how he was being cheated and how he can make it on his own if he goes solo. The constant fights Peter had with Jude and Paul and Paul's wife made their father's health break down. The man had High BP and those incidents aggravated it!

Lola! Your case dey heaven dey wait! Evil Woman

Holarmide:
I am married with 2 kids, and my wife's kid brother of 20yrs lives with me and he doesn't work. We live in a 3 bedroom flat estimated at 400 per year. Initially I was making 80k as salary and my wife makes 30k cos she is doing a weekend only job as she schools. Now I stopped work last month cos my office owes me 3 months salary n they refuse to pay. So Tell me, is the rent ok or am suppose to settle for something lesser?

Chommieblaq:
No doubts Jude was wrong, buh if am Peter, I would would still attend his wedding with my wife sef. Two wrongs can never make a right.



PS :an average igbo man is not a tribal bigot, not to ur own blood. It's an individual thing and it's in every tribe.

jailing her will do nothing for the dead, let by gones be by gones. it was an unfortunate accident, they shouldnt be harsh in jailing her. living with a conscience that she unintentionally killed someone and having the memory every single day is far worse than any jail sentence. let the woman be pardoned.

ravensckar:
Permit me to lend my layman's view to the ongoing discussion...


First and foremost, what is education? It's the process by which one acquires KNOWLEDGE & INSTRUCTION. The problem with most graduates is that they don't seem to even understand the concept of acquiring knowledge. If not, why should someone ever imagine that he wouldn't make it in life if he isn't educated? Or that he would make it in life by becoming educated (especially studying a particular course). Therein lies the whole misconception about 'Being educated in this country'



Acquiring formal education will only increase one's knowledge, broadens one's scope, develop one's intellectual mind, and shapes one's perception (reasoning). However, the sad truth is that being educated is not (and has never been) a guarantee that one would make it in life.


Lemme clarify with this quote by Napoleon Hill, he said and I quote; 'There is one quality which one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose. The knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it.'


Furthermore, the major reason why most graduates still haven't achieved their desired success has been summarised by Albert Einstein. He said 'Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking' Now let's be sincere with ourselves, have we really been using our brain optimally? Don't most of us (Including myself) depend on what we were taught at school? Or better still what we read in books.



In conclusion, whoever will succeed in this Nigeria of today (No matter the person's educational background) must first identify his calling. Follow his passion and then, be ready think outside the box.


But again, what does a layman like me know?

upload111:
took the thoughts straight from my mind..
well done.
in addition..
i am quite in agreement with fumstar n manie also. I dont believe education is a waste of time.. i see it as a foundation. someone stated on d whatsapp group that there is a difference btw education and learning n i totally agree.

i do agree that wt sunnypar that we as a nation may b or might hav been lead by criminals but that shouldnt be blamed on our educational system.

Nigerian societal perceptions/behaviours today is as a result of our mindset.
being educated is not a determinant of being rich and same way not beinf educated is not a determinant as well.

most of the people mentioned(dangote, bill gates, etc..) all went back to get some sort of education. dangote went back to attend a bisiness sch..bill gates a management sch and so many of them like that..
we may feel we do not use dy/dx ...but in some other countries where reaearch thrives ,,they do use 'em.

eventhough we dont use that, we do use numbers n economics in business, even accounting,,these are basics in any business. n these basics can b gotten from getting education in schs..

like i once said God only gave us oranges and not orange juice. the ability to convert orange to orange juice is what makes the difference.

Sunnypar:
Who are those that have rules us for years? Criminals.....same old criminals.....so, what the hell are you saying? Yes, I am not a teacher. Teach the young kids in school to aosire to be a politicians so we can see the change we want.

fumstar:
Dangote, a self employed entrepreneur with minimum basic eduction who proved that business success is usually through the strength of the mind and perseverance and not necessarily by obtaining Harvard -Oxford certificates or first class academic qualification. His managerial skill s surely is the envy of most economic professors. I understand the perspective you are talking from but not everybody can be Dangote or Bill gates. It takes someone with good business sense to survive in the business world. Your certificate makes it balanced. Find your passion and that does it for you.

Sunnypar:
I agree to the bolded. Fumstar! Billgates, Dangote, Ogbuefi Ikediashi, Steve Jobs, Akerele Tunde, Baba Ijebu and some other notable Nigerians did not have this certificate, dropped out and employ you and I, tell me, do they have certificates?

Redomi:
Hello here, am confuse on what to do now o. Poultry, according to my estimation will cost me nothing less than 1million, where will I get such fund?
Maybe I will go into betting agent or take a part time job as a PTA teacher in Ondo city.

Sunnypar:
Good question. Education in Nigeria is a waste.... How many of the dy/DX have we used? How many of the find x have we used?....... How many if us are using our certificate to work? They way forward is be like the rich criminals.

trishapal:
I'm impressed that we still have teachers who would go out of their duty call to help a pupil. I would suggest that you be particularly patient with this pupil as I see that you are very concerned and want results as this is what really makes us good teachers. Firstly, you need to let the child and the parents be aware of your observations and your willingness of partnering with the home to bring out the best in the child.

Modified: I've also checked the group... It's quite educative. Every parent and educator should join... www./SchoolFinders

You underestimate the work a lawyer does that's what I can see.

Go and find out the workload of a lawyer working in a good law office and come back and tell me how you can balance two jobs at the same time.

Okijajuju1:
Law job..

REASON: Relevant Experience..


The person should assess the Law firm and check if they have a good reputation in the industry. If its one of the top Law Firms, work for them and gather that invaluable experience which can get him/her into an even better Law firm in the future.

The second Job though it comes with better pay, adds nothing relevant the the persons resume and in the future when that job eventually ends, the person will be left with nothing but memories of a job that paid well but added no value to his professional life..

jnrbayano:
These men should all be rounded up and jailed for life.

And people who patronise should be rounded up too and sent to rehabilitation homes.

Ecobank Nigeria Plc has sacked 50 top managers of the bank as it struggles to stay afloat in the midst of biting economic hardship in Nigeria.

PM News gathered that the rank of those sacked ranged from Assistant General Manager, Deputy General Manager and above whose monthly salaries range between N1 million and N2 million.

The affected top management staff of the bank were handed their sack letters from the bank’s head office in Victoria Island, Lagos, Southwest Nigeria on Tuesday.

A source in the bank told PM News that the bank has been going through tough time as a result of crippling economy, occasioned by dwindling oil prices and the crumbling of the naira to dollar.

The source said the bank had been undergoing restructuring in recent times in trying to survive in a fast collapsing Nigeria economy.

According to the insider, the source of revenue to the bank had trimmed since the hardship began biting hard, noting that, it is afecting all Nigeria banks and that since Ecobank had not been making money, there was no way it could continue to pay the huge wage bill of top echelon staff which ranged from N1 million to N2 million.

“Ecobank is not the only bank facing the biting effect of the economy and the bank is only trying to trim its wages,” the source told PM News.

Adding that “since those at the top earned more, it decided to sack many at the top level”.

Im close to Odonguyan Sir.

Reference:
Especially when the soft underbelly is uncovered. Nigeria is in shambles today because of the sub-culture he exemplyfies so graphically. It hurts, it embarasses but it is true. Most Nigerians will trade their matress for an Iphone 6.

Ikorodu please.

datGuyJoo:
And therein lies the problem. You will let a great employee go. Whom has worked all month long. Comes into work on time. Works overtime when asked to. Is courteous and respectful to you and everyone, because the employee did not say thank you for the money he/she earned.

Lord I'm glad I do not have some people as bosses lol.
