The depreciation was impacted by losses recorded in medium and large capitalised stocks, amongst which are; Nigerian Breweries, Dangote Sugar, Zenith Bank, FBN Holdings and UBA


THIS IS bad for business [/quote]Bros,

You just took a bit part and formed an opinion. In actual fact, reverse is the case. The Nigerian stock market has done pretty well of late....

Analysts attributed the drop in indices to profit taking by investors on the exchange. According to them, investors leveraged the price appreciation recorded in the past few days to recoup their investment.

Despite the decline, they reiterated that stock prices remain attractive, making room for bargain hunting in value stocks, amidst still-positive macro-economic fundamentals.

I recently ended a thing with a lady and damn she didn’t take it well.

She was annoying, but I told her I was simply too busy with work and other things and she was pushing for something more serious.Truth was, i easily grow bored whenever a relationship stretches for more than a month

After I told her I had no intention of getting serious, out came the shaming tactics “You’re not a real man are you” “You’re just a fuckboy” “Don't let your look deceive you. you can't get anyone better than me” “Maybe I should send a guy friend to Bleep you up” “You wasted 2 months of my life” "you took advantage of me because i was vulnerable"

Now the whole time she’s saying all this, I kept thinking of the phrase women use to shame and shut down men who get aggressive over being rejected, “you’re not entitled to anybody’s love or affection”

So I decided to use it. I said “you’re not entitled to anyone’s love or affection” And she hit the roof telling me, “I can Bleep any guy I want, I can have a new guy every day if I wanted”

I gotta admit, it felt pretty damn good to use that on a chick.

Well sweetheart, why are you wasting time arguing with me? Go do that then!!

Typical woman. Feels entitled to my time but if I was being billy beta and getting Aggro about her not committing I’d get told I’m not entitled to her love and affection

Bros,

7. Rich Guys Believe Broke Ladies Are Gold Diggers!

This we all know is a fallacy of hasty generalisation, but the world in general live by fallacies of generalisation and nobody can change it.

Again, majority of broke ladies are truly gold diggers and this unhealthy attitude of most have ruined the chances of broke ladies getting married to rich guys.

In developed countries like USA, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Japan, Australia, Spain, Switzerland, etc, you can never see a rich guy getting married to a poor lady because they don't want the lady to later divorce them and file for child support and alimony, which usually runs into hundreds and millions of hard currencies.

So in the western world, laws and policies helped in stopping rich guys from marrying broke ladies and in Africa, gold digging, hungry attitude, pressure from the poor girl's family are part of the reasons rich guys avoid marrying broke ladies.

I think broke, average and semi average ladies have a big task to change this bad mentality successful men have about them for things to change for good in future.

I think these category of ladies are predators. These are the lazy ones that have purposed to live off men for the rest of their lives. Is it a poor -lady phenomenon? I can't conclude. I think the society is much more complicated than a simple generalization like this. Check x scenarios
1. Rich actors, sports stars and musicians who mostly come from poor background end up in many cases marrying models and actresses. Their marriages is fact becoming a 10-meter sprint.
2. Societies that have the Alimony system encourage both the rich and poor ladies with predatory intent.
3. Rich girl without proper values, work-ethic and orientation may not be different from a typical gold-digger. Someone has been paying her bills since childhood, someone must continue to pay her bills.

6. What The Society Will Say!

Against all odds, some rich guys who by nature's making fell deeply in love with broke ladies end up not marrying the broke ladies simply because of what people will say, what his rich friends will say, and what the society in general will say.

It is not that easy for a truly rich and famous young man to marry a poor lady he picked from nowhere, the odds of it happening in today world is very slim.

Especially now that we have social media broadcasting every single step we take in life, most rich guys hate negative media because it may affect their business, career or family reputation and political image.

I pray rich people "wean" themselves from this position. We are having too many failed marriages because people don't marry their friend

5. Broke Ladies Are Very Difficult To Please!

Contrary to what many guys believe, rich ladies are easy to please unlike the broke ladies.

A rich lady may gush over a rose flower you got for her, but a broke lady will never do that but will only be pleased when you buy her reigning expensive clothe or gadget, and this mentality of broke ladies unknowingly to them, distracts rich guys.

A rich guy out of love may feel getting his broke girlfriend a rose flower or something like that as bday present, and to his greatest surprise, the lady was expecting the latest iphone or even a car which she may unknowingly show, and end up making the guy cancel her from his top list of would be

I have been out of "the game" a long time........hence my tots may be different

1. It is natural that boy friends get gifts for their ladies. The choice of gifts should not be static. Ones the relationship gets to a level, mutual exchange of gift is good. Choices will now depend on many factors - level of appreciation, spice, cover gaps and sometimes strategy etc. I bought my girl friend (now wife) her first phone by intuition and ended up a good strategy. A richer "toaster" back then was late to the game. She simply told him he shouldn't bother as it is of no use to her. This "toaster" called me to tell me himself that I beat him to his game.

2. Even though my wife was into the "flower" business at a time, we both still feel some of some borrowed culture may not be adaptable in our society. For some ladies flowers will not be appreciated, and this does not make them classless. Not all rich ladies even appreciate flowers. People should not live in denial. When I was dating my wife, she had preference for cakes of various and exquisite kinds, perfumes and wines. So my waka had to do with backers, perfumery and wine shops........

3. It is also important that guys should not just work from a template. Each lady is unique. Get to know her preferences. Observe stuffs like here favourite colours (so when you buy stuffs), her favorite spots and other orientation. Don't bring flowers if she prefers a phone. Absolutely yes. If this is the girl you feel good with, you wanna spend the rest of your life with......then get her what your heart tells you

4. Being Financially Dependent or A Liability is Not Romantic!

Forget the Yahoo boys who just jam money by chance or crook, hence, their broke guy mentality or poverty mentality is still in them, which makes them run back to their class of ladies....

Truly rich guys and those from rich family backgrounds have been groomed to respect money...they have grown to understand that being financially productive is a major quality every human must possess....for this reason, they tend to dislike people who depend so much on them financially or those who keep running after them for money and material favor....this is one reason many men start keeping distance from their old time friends once they become financially successful.

If you want to sustain your friendship with anybody in life, try not to be a liability to them, especially financial liability or else, they will flee from you no matter how rich they are.

Try and be contributing something meaningful to your rich friends if you want them to stick around you for long or else, they will flee from you.

So as a lady, if you want that rich guy to stay for long and possibly consider you for marriage, then you must stop being a financial burden always begging for one favour or the other....rich guys are so used to people begging them for money and favour, so you being his girlfriend or lover, you are not supposed to become another financial liability to him, or else, you will start to become unattractive to him

@bold is true.

Your advise should not be limited to ladies alone. Some men also want to "leach" off their rich friends, hence such get cut-off

3. Most Broke Ladies Have Disgusting Mentality & Money Attitude That Repel Successful Guys!

How do you explain the life of a lady who is so fixated on her mobile phone chatting with every Dick and Tom trying to hook up to the extent it becomes her habit, such that even while she is still with Jesus Christ, she will still be looking for the Savior

You are with a very promising young man on a date or something, but you are busy chatting and smiling with some unknown Yahoo boys living in Malaysia or some Janitors living in California, who only dresses up after his Janitor work and rushes to pose in front of McDonalds to snap some cool pix and tag it: Lunch Time! Ah my sister, you have joined bad gang

Due to chronic poverty and years of suffering, most ladies' mentality has been raped front and back, they believe taking them to shopping denotes true love and buying them the latest iPhone means you will marry them, ah ah....is that how you used to do Aunty me

Men generally don't like spending much on the lady they truly want to settle with because they know that whatever they have belongs to her, so whats the need trying to impress with what she will still get to enjoy to the fullest

Most times, men spend lavishly when they want a lady; probably a new catch to open legs lavishly and very fast at that, so they use heavy spending within a twinkle of an eye to blind her reasoning and before she knows it, she is screaming....daddy ejoor, egbami o

Most broke ladies want to live Davica Daloca lifestyle at the expense of some mumu guys, and with time, this becomes their way of life, which repels successful young men they want to marry

This depiction is that of a greedy and materialistic girl....such traits is not limited to poor girls. I hazard a guess that there are many decent poor girls, whose demands are even next-to-nothing.

2. Their Parents Won't Allow Them to Marry Broke Ladies!

My brothers and sisters, haven suffered so much and later you are able to climb out of that poverty hole, believe me, you will never wanna go back there, neither would you want your children, grandchildren and even siblings to go back there, never!

This is why rich men fix marriage for their sons and daughters to also marry sons and daughters of their fellow rich friends. It is as easy as that, and please don't blame them....blame Mr. Poverty for showing them pepper while poor

By chance, some rich guys, guys especially do come across ladies from broke or poor family background they wish to marry, but most often, these dream gets murdered by their parents who will go extramile to ensure their children dare not make the mistake of marrying a broke lady, its sad, but that's the reality, so if you are a broke lady and you are dating a rich guy, my sister....don't rejoice yet because the doomsday will come...that day he will present you to his family and everyone is like....who is she? what does she do for a living? who is her dad? which school did she finished from?

Don't give up....in every rule, there is always an exception and who said yours can't be the very few exceptions Please don't forget to send me your wedding invitation so I can at least come chow some free chicken and still go home with free wedding box gift, Fatima Dangote's wedding comes to mind

This narrative is overused and overrated. Check some scenarios

1. Rich guy marries rich girl because the truly fell for each other
2. Rich guy marries poor girl because he was smitten by her.....and the parents support it cos they want what makes their son happy
3. Rich guy marries poor girl because rich mother in-law wants a WIFE and not slay mamas, undomesticated-makeup-barbie, girls without "culture-intelligence", outright-lazy-rude-disrespectful girls etc. As such she influences the choice of the son. This presupposes that there is that bond between rich mama and son.
4. Rich guy marries rich girl because aside affection, she fits into the positive narrative depicted in (3) above
5. Rich guy don't send - Rich or Poor, gimme a good woman

Hey ladies and gents, I am here to reveal to you, some of the major reasons rich guys marry rich ladies.

This thread is not talking about some classless guys who by chance or luck or whatever reason stumbled upon big money not really wealth per se because wealth comes with persistent gathering of riches with years.

So before you read further, note that Yahoo boys and their likes are not rich by my own standard!


Truly rich guys don't and will never marry a poor or broke lady, and you know why

1. Their Daily Activities Run Opposite Direction:

The picture you paint here is a case of a lazy lady not a poor lady.

In as much as majority of women wish, desire and daydream of getting married to a rich guy, many won't achieve this not because they are not pretty and sexy, but because their daily activities does not match with the daily activities of rich guys, which makes it highly impossible or let me say, difficult for rich guys to get to see them often.

For instance, Paddy Adenuga who we all know is a rich guy, wakes up, prepares and heads straight to his office to start the day's business activities, where he will be probably be meeting with other top company CEOs, directors, top bank marketing executives, brand ambassadors, etc, and maybe during lunch, he drives down to his usual lunch spot at maybe Lagos Atlantic or any other top class restaurant to have his lunch, and probably heads back to his office from there to continue meeting with other top executives and business gurus in his field.

While he is doing all these....Folake, a very pretty girl who has been daydreaming of marrying a rich guy like Paddy Adenuga is at home with her phone logging in from Instagram to Facebook to Snapchat to Badoo to Twitter, changing her best photoshopped and filtered photos hoping to catch one rich guy that will end up marrying her.

Folake refuses to get busy with a career or business that will increase her chances of meeting potential successful guys.

Advice to Folake:
Start a business and be dedicated to it, or get a job, if you can't get one, learn a trade, something like fashion designing, etc, maybe from there, you might get to make a dress that Paddy Adenuga's sister or niece likes and from there, she makes you her regular designer and gets to introduce you to her family members and you may probably get to meet Paddy Adenuga or other of his rich brothers and cousins who may probably fall for your beauty haven get to see you as a dedicated, hardworking, pretty fashion designer and not just a usual fine girl they come across everyday and possibly chop and clean mouth

You just depicted a lazy girl and not a poor girl

Abiola this, democracy that.

The real truth those old enough can remember is that Abiola is a hater or Christians and Igbos. Do you know how many people died during "oso - abiola" how many ppl sold off their ppties as peanuts, how many bibles he sank in the Atlantic or destroyed?

He ended up the way he did cus of collective cries and prayers of the people who feared for their lives should he be sworn in as the president.

Go and ask ur parents about this before you quote me ignorantly. If your parents were too young to understand politics then, as your uncles or your grandparents .

Thank God for the likes of Abdulsalami or else military won't have handed over to the democracy you're all celebrating.

Why is it that anyone who does not share the same opinions and perspective with the Igbos is a hater of the Igbos?

Your fables about sinking bibles in the ocean are quite retarded in this present age.

Abiola was well known as a liberal Muslim who was tolerant of all men of all faith.

That you even mention Oso Abiola as a factor to why the election was annulled, only shows you don't know anything about the timeline of the history you are trying to teach others.

Who feared for their lives because of Abiola?

For what reason?

What manner of collective cries? Cries from Igbos or who?

Spare yourself of unnecessary discussion with him. You know some kids just come here to spill trash after their illiterate parents have told them fables

Prof. Nwosu has aged. He was a fine boy during June 12

Life! Mayegun it was that was injected with lead. It took him several surgeries and therapies to get his body cleaned up.

Mayegun also narrated how himself, Sowore and some other guys worked with Kayode Fayemi & Co on the Radio Kudirat Project; how thy will sneak to Cotonou and back to have meetings with the NADECO crew......

The story of June 12 needs to be made into a film.

Throwback:
Since it has Channels TV, then it definitely was not 1993. That has to be 1998 after Abacha's death or after Abiola's death.

Channels TV began airing in 1996.


Modified:
And indeed I have confirmed with the John Momoh interview of Abiola after the annulment in 1993. This confirms that Channels were active, even if not yet airing, and explains why their name plate is on a microphone at a 1993 protest.

Bros,

Channels TV began in 1992

Lilimax:
Why was the sudden noise from the present Federal Government on June 12 issues?
All for political gimmicks?
Nigerians are wiser except those that wants themselves to be deceived

Were you expecting any other basis for "gimmicks"? Why had others before this FG not played the card? For what reasons, this FG had done something noble that generations will never forget. Deal with that. As for "Nigerians are wiser.......", lay off the sentiments. The likes of you who make the statement are the people pained that June 12 became an actuality and that it was through PMB

akdjr:
Truly Abiola was actually the presumed winner. But I hate the fact that people still refer to this election as free and fair election ever. Big lie! In my place in Akoko-Edo local govt,the election was well rigged in favour of Abiola and being a money politician money exchange hands.

Bros,

If you were truly around in 1993 and knew the Option A4 model, then what you have described her is not believable.

Deprofessional:
Abiola sunk a whole container load of Holy Bible into the ocean.

That was the day heaven rejected him.

That was the day nature wrote him off.

That was the day his habitation became desolate and his position another took.

Moral: Play with everything, but never go against the creator of the universe.

I guess you heard this falsehood from your Village tales by Moonlight? This event NEVER happened. This is the semblance of fake news of today as was spread then.

If you knew Abiola, you will know that not only does he read the Bible as well as his Quran, he was vast in sections of the Bible. When Abiola had meetings with Christian body, he defended his Choice of Kingibe stoutly quoting relevant passages in the scriptures about choices, God's Mercy and Grace.

When Abiola was in detention, he had access to only the Bible and Quran

CSTR1003:
Yes.

Abiola was a popular candidate only because of his philanthropy.

But He was insensitive to run on a Muslim -muslim ticket and had very little intellectual substance as a presidential candidate.

I wonder if you are an "Indomie-Generation" kid or you just chose to be ridiculous. Stop talking about things you have no clue about

1. @ Muslim-Muslim ticket - MKO had a meeting with the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) executives on the issue of Muslim-Muslim ticket. Abiola defended his choice of Kingibe to CAN and after the meeting...in the full glare of Nigerian press, CAN told the whole nation that they were satisfied with Abiola's explanations.

2. Abiola has little intellectual substance as a candidate? ARE YOU MAAAAADDDDDDD? Some of who children are so daaaaffftttttt you just make statements that are unbelievable. You better ask elders in your family to explain the person of MKO to you. Don't come here and make ridiculous gaffes.

I was in my ND1 in 2006 when they came with such promises of scrapping HND and adopt B.tech but all was false. After my ND programme with a year Industrial Training (IT) I crossed to the university to further my studies. My people this is 2018 (12yrs after) I av banged Degree, Master's Degree and also running some professional programs yet Polytechnics have not stop awarding HND to their products. Am not here to discriminate cos polytechnics still stand has a gateway to my success but just that don't be deceive by this so called useless govt of our country. Believe in yourself and what you have and I see will all achieving our DREAMS.

Lemme guess,

1. You didn't read beyond the headlines
2. You just want to "vent" your pain.....

CChillz:
Nice move by the FEC because the kind of discrimination polytechnic graduates face in some private establishment is really alarming. The problem now might be that it will become hard for those that have gotten their OND to get admitted to further in the B.tech category. Let hope this reformation in the tertiary institution works for the best.

The reform itself should be all encompassing. It is also about redesign and restrategising the curricular of Poly education for better fit into technology drive in the govt and private sector. I noticed some interesting things in the report

1. All non-Technology based courses will be scrapped
2. Polytechnic will now become campuses of proximate universities. The VC's will then appoint Rectors - This potentially slippery but will be interesting how this pans out. Will the B.Tech then be awarded by the proximate universities or the Polytechnics?
3. Current HND certificate elevated to same levels with B.SC. Private sectors are not obeying this rule

kazyhm:
Confused state of Nigeria.

What problem is this going to solve ?

instead in my opinion for them to reduce the number of conventional Universities and strengthen Universities of technologies and Polytechnics to empower the middle class and drive the country through technological innovation and development.

well, they've actually succeeded in demoralizing polytechnic graduates from now henceforth..........and i doubt if this myopic reforms will hold water.

You alleged myopic reforms, yet you gave opinion that is just a concoction of flowery words. Reduce the number of conventional universities? how? Cancel or withdraw license? outright close-down? or what exactly? How exactly are Universities of Technology and Polytechnics going to empower middle class?

My tots are that you do not understand this intiative, what intent it was to serve and how it ties into aspiration to properly integrate polytechnic graduate correctly into the "system". What I see you do is an attempt to denigrate this initiative with a rather confusing/confused submission.

frowland:
B.Tech is 5 years in any University of Technology (exclusive to Federal?)
B.Sc is 4 years in any university
Now Polytechnics should be B.sc equivalent not B.tech. Its uncool for we B.Tech holders be paired with Polytechnics.

....if educational standards are improved and rated on the level of "cool", then you have a point

ElsonMorali:
Those with B.Tech had 5years of education in a University of TECHNOLOGY.

How do you equate that B.Tech and this other B.Tech that is to be awarded instead of HND?

You don't need to equate it. B.Tech is B. Tech. There is an educational path to the award of B.Tech. What this news is simply telling is that anyone that get's admitted into a Polytechnic gets on the B.Tech curricula from day 1. Can it be any brainier?

niceprof:
[b]Why not upgrade them to full fledged degree awarding institutions [/b]as most of them are far better than most universities. As for 70% of their courses being not tech based and needs to be scrapped,you will always need to close the various Universities of Techs,Agrics in the country as over 70% of their courses are also neither tech nor Agric based.

Policies need to be thought through before being pushed to the public domain.

Is B.Tech a diploma?
