omenka: Oritsejafor the gunrunner busted yesterday, bomb goes off today!!! Do the math!!

Kelly32: Why use such an event (that deserves to be FIRST CONDEMNED) as a platform to suggest what you have not personally investigated. what do you benefit by trying to whip-up political or religious sentiments with this event?

We as Nigerians should all stand together against this act of barbaric savagery. Those are peoples brothers,sisters, children, husbands and wives with a future and have been innocently slaughtered. You did not condemn this evil, but you are rather making insinuations. Perhaps you have an evil interest in this.

obailala: May God deliver the black man from sheer ignorance and pure stupidity...

Common sense combined with a little education tells me the structure was weak and probably built on a weak foundation. It was a disaster waiting to happen all these while and the sound of the flying object simply introduced a little vibration in the area which caused the structure to crumble. There are even reports the building had only 2 floors until it was upgraded to 5 or 6. The question sensible people should ask is if the foundation was capable of carrying up to 5 floors (I'm sure it wasn't).

I would have assumed the people commenting on Nairaland are at least educated to know these little things but instead I can already see several comments swallowing and supporting the illiterate theory of 'spiritual attack by a strange flying object.'

As usual, this case will be dismissed as spiritual and the engineers handling the project would not be arrested and punished. Just the same way we keep having poorly maintained planes falling off our skies and instead of punishing anyone, you hear people in authority spitting out gibberish like "it was an act of God."

Sometimes I wonder what we use our education for... Most people think education is just about getting a white paper with which they would get into a high paying job. God help us!

dvee2: SINCE YOU TALK ABOUT COMMON SENSE, LETS DISCUSS WHAT SENSIBLE PEOPLE WILL DO IN SUCH SITUATION. NOBODY IS SAYING MODU SHERIFF IS GUILTY, BUT IN THE LIGHT OF THIS CURRENT REVELATIONS, A COMMON SENSE PERSON WILL TEMPORARILY DISTANCE HIMSELF FROM THE ACCUSED FOR A WHILE AND WAIT FOR THE OUTCOME OF THE INVESTIGATION. THAT'S ALL WHAT EVERYONE IS ASKING FOR. THAT'S WHAT COMMON SENSE PEOPLE WOULD DO ALL OVER THE WORLD, EVEN MORE IF HE IS THE PRESIDENT OF A NATION. IS THAT A DIFFICULT THING TO ASK?

FINALLY, WHEN YOU ARE BEING TOLD REPEATEDLY THAT YOUR WIFE IS CHEATING, USE COMMON SENSE TO TELL YOURSELF THAT ITS NOT POSSIBLE BECAUSE YOUR WIFE LOVES YOU. DON'T INVESTIGATE TO UNRAVEL THE FACTS OK?

skimarvel: He is no longer at war with PEJ its GEJ he turned it to. A man with all that white hair should have better things to do with his already short time.

aljharem: I don't think you read my post

I said maintained

Moreover who expands a road for 29 billion naira

aljharem: Ok prove otherwise then !

Who has been maintaining Ikorodu road

unknown: Lagos begins expansion of Ketu- Ikorodu road at N29 billion.


http://thecitizenng.com/other-news/lagos-begins-expansion-of-ketu-ikorodu-road-at-n29-billion/


^^^^^ That's for the ignorant poster about FERMA and Ikorodu road...

aljharem: Fashola and the APC lead Tinubu government are full of lies and propaganda. Lets itemize the things he claimed to have do with a loan of 160 billion Naira. Also note that Lagos generate 29 billion Naira monthly apart from 12 billion Naira monthly allocation from the Federal Government

Is Shoprite a Lagos state project ? No

Is Lekki epe a lagos state project ? No and if yes then why are we being asked to pay at them toll gate, is this not double taxation ?

Are those housing estates Lagos state project for the elites or masses ? if for the elites then half of them is owned by Tinubu. If not then why sell a Lagos state "low scheme" flat for 30 million naira ? Does this even make any sense ?

Are those malls shops for the elites or market men and women ? The tejuosho mall and co are rented and sold at high prices. Most of them have already been bought by his commissioner and SA wives.

Is FERMA also Lagos state ? Ikorodu road has always been repaired and maintained by Ferma, not to talk of other road.

Point out what Fashola has done apart from over inflated projects, planting flowers and elites housing estates

Hoping for PDP to take over this Tinubu Empire

For the Men, which one are YOU, and For the Women, which one is Yours, for single ladies which one do you want?

Everybody will choose number 10 though.... But I bet we aint dat common like dat.

You can still add yours!

Smooyis: I said it before. Keshi may be a good coach but definitely not a gud manager. He sometimes over dramatizes issues. An elder rebukes a child with the right hand, and soon uses the left hand to draw him closer, but this is not so with keshi. What if IK were to be his son. He should just get rid of pride and draw the boy nearer to him. Afterall, not going to d world cup was enough punishment for any futbal player. Two wrongs can never make a right

dhope: i neva wish he return as our coach again but am sure he will soon leave us. where are his favourites for brazil? d likes of ameobi (who is already past his prime), uchebo and gabriel. dis is how he had issues wit adebayor in togo b4 he was sacked there. it is absurd for a single man to satisfy his desire at d expense of more dan 100million pple. he need to learn to combine being bossy wit managerial skills.

mbhs139: Let's even say Coach Stephen Keshi called IK Uche, like I he said, and Uche said he wanted to be begged before he will play for the country, is it sensible for a coach, who I suppose wanted to put things right in the first place, which was the reason why he called the player in the second instance, to now come out in the public to benignly reveal what transpired between him and the player? I think that is very very wrong of him as a coach.

There is really a difference between a coach and a manager. Keshi, as far as I'm concerned is more of the former than the latter

50calibre: I'm guessing this granny never actually fired that weapon, the recoil of an AK-47 is enough to throw her several feet backwards.

with that gun, she's more of a danger to herself than the intruder she's trying to fight off

berem: you're right! I didn't know Kerosene was far more expensive than gas. Sorry for the misconception.

berem: The price of refilling a 12.5kg cylinder is quite on the high side. A common man cannot afford 2,800naira for that. The price should be reduced if they want a success in their campaign.

publisher: The Nigerian army have now turned the tide and become terrorists to Boko Haram members and their supporters.

...but the truth is that Boko Haram fighters are being decimated rapidly and their only hope of survival increasingly rests on the pages of selected newspapers, reckless social media fora and opposition backed news websites.

Ahmeduana: I THINK IKORODU IS A LOCAL GOVERMENT AREA NOT A STREET?

Aromas: space 4 sale

bandol: Omsiore leading in Ife axis-Central, East, North and South. Aregbe leading in Osogbo and entire Ijesaland. ?? #Osundecides

johnstar: i'm a student of oduduwa uni, in ife... we juz dey campus dey peep outside nw, dat roundabout, d road dat leads 2 edo-ekiti juz tyt wit security, army dem..... make una knw vote for dat arebesola ol, d man shuld b out, bcus oau stil dey on strike, im nt happy about dat oo, aregbesola out

[quote author=deucelaw]OAU is a federal University, thus under jurisdiction of the FG, not the state executive...If u have a genuine reason, state it!!

eves4love: sorry for quoting u, but i want u to get your facts right before misleading people. First, the Attah Igala is a position with islamic influence since the creation of the igala kingdom in the 15th century by HRM Ayegba omaidoko after he won the jukun-igala war with the help of the six mallams from bebeji in kano through thier prayer and works. They were muslims, which the past 21 Attahs were muslims except the siiting attah who is not a muslim. Thats why the past attah Dr aliyu Obaje was burried with an islamic rite. So u now see that the issue of ikorodu is different because the throne has no connection to islam, therefore he shouldnt be burried with an islamic rite, compared to the Attah Igala whose throne is islamically linked

caseless: u are misleading the general public with this unfounded history. So, jukun that river was poisoned for dis water they drank and they died, and u ar telling me igala won d war with help of hausa? It was only ameh oboni(evn thou he later changed to a traditionalist like his son did) and Aliyu obaje, i can't recall any attah with affiliation to any known religion apart from trad religion and, u gave as much as 21 of them having link to islam.

Silensa: am sure that he was aware of the burial rite for Oba's before taking the mantle.
The family has utterly failed and should be punished for this.

No respect for our traditions again.
Smh

macof: We are Yoruba not Igala, if Igala want to sell their throne to Islam we won't.

An Oba is a person who can promote the values of the Yoruba not be a promoter of Islam...this is an Emir's job
its because of useless obas like this that Igbo people call us Fulani slaves

Rilamaka: First of all I'm not Bro, I'm sis. Secondly I do not have any wahala with Yoruba Muslims at all! To me they are the true Muslims that preach peace. But our Boko Haram brothers think otherwise.

One question tho... why is violence stemming from Islam on the high rise? Like it's trending

Rilamaka: So all these Boko Haram, ISIS and Al Qaeda terrorists that have declared Jihad, have never come across this portion of the Quran that you posted?

oilyngbati: And if I may ask, I doubt if you are Arab/palestinian, how are you related to Arabs, are you an Arab?

You islamic terrorists talk so much about hate, and I ask who is doing the hate, to the point of killing innocent people in the name of religion? What is the religion of your islamic boko-monkeys?

true2god: You muslims are ignorant of your religion. This is what allah told mohammed (spit be upon him) in quran 5:51, 'take not christians and Jews as friends, the are friends to one another...'.

So with this incitement from allah asking muslims to take Jews and christians as enemies, how do u expect peace to reign in this world? Anyhw, it seems the God of the Jews is more powerful than allah.

franciskaine: Did learnt something from this, never a wasted time.

Alishachris: We have being trying to reason with them for hundreds of years now, look where it got us. The more you reason, the more foolish and weak you appear to them. it's high time they know that we would never condole any rubbish from them and any violence would be adequately returned.

laudate: Bros, sometimes there is a need to be strict. Too many inane topics litter Nairaland. For someone to ask this question, it appears that he or she wants to pursue graduate studies in a uni and must have already finished BSc or BA, not so? Anyone who has attended a university in Nigeria, knows how to get the answer to that question. If they don't, then it means they went to uni to fritter away their time.

If any of my young undergraduate relatives asked this kind of question, I would ask them to go directly to the source - the postgraduate dept within their school! Lazy minds should not be indulged. If you are too weak to walk into any of the PG schools, why not log on to Google and review the various PG courses being offered by the Nigerian universities as well as the entry requirements for each course?

Why do people like being spoon fed with info, from sources that cannot be verified? At the end of the day, you might end up more confused with the plethora of opinions being thrown at you from a social network platform, instead of doing your own research using authentic sources & getting it right.

Aren't undergraduates taught the rudiments of research & learning anymore? What are their lecturers there for? What are the PG schools set up to do? And the counselling units? Even the OP's question was rather open-ended.... no specific course or uni was stated.

Why do people like going to Sokoto to find out what is at the hem of their 'sokoto' (i.e. trousers) as my Yoruba neighbours would say?

Someone has just responded by saying '"you can only do a masters within your course of study if you have a 2.2," which is NOT totally correct. What about all those studying for MBA, MPA and other such professional courses? Do they all have a 1st degree within those course of studies?

Before you know it, others will come up with different opinions, counter arguments will ensue and the whole discussion will descend into a cyber free-for-all, with all kinds of strange opinions flying in from left, right and centre.

Abeg, e don do ..... I don talk my own!
