PoliticsRe: APC Leaders Angry As Buhari Appoints More Northerners by menxer: 7:43am On Aug 28, 2015
We all as football fans know the strategy of playing some key players later in the game or during half time. Does it mean in the appointments of political team players, substitutions are not/cannot be made during half time, or anytime during play time? grin

The man that sees the farthest is the one on top, Let's hope PMB has a better view of the promise land from his perch, and thus selecting his team players accordingly.

So why is the government employing sub-standard teachers then?
what do you expect when mediocrity had been institutionalized in the name of employing "my person" or filling quota? grin

Good initiative.
Needs to be expanded to cover political office holders and medical facilities while the remaining 35 states and 774 LGAs emulate it.
grin
check your mathematics, if you subtract 1 state and have 35, how come you still have 774 LGAs left?
grin

This is really stupid, is it the fault of the teachers that the state cannot provide quality education.
when we talk of quality education, is it all about the building and facilities?
what of the quality of the teachers?

if the government decide to sack teachers that are below par, what then?grin

Yes, it is a choice and no, not everyone can make it. However it is the duty n obligation of the govt to fix n maintain a sound economy n educational system so Nigerians do not feel like they have to make the choice, like it's a privilege or that studying at home guarantees a mediocre level of education at best while foreign education is of abetter/higher standard.

For instance, a greater percentage of US, UK and Canadian citizens have never travelled out of their countries and don't know much about other countries because their systems work! They are guaranteed good education and all other things like health care, jobs security and so on so they don't have to travel to 'develop ' themselves or seek greener pastures. If a Canadian studies in the UK for instance, it is a choice! That is what it should be.
you missed my point.

the systems you cite that are working, are those managed by men from outer space?

who are the ones making the choice to study abroad in Nigeria? are they the children of the akara seller on your street?

common on, the people in government are our kinsmen/women not space aliens.

so when you speak of making our system work, think of that your "uncle" that is a commissioner or minister, or a decision maker in government that has turn a blind eye and deaf ear to the "decay" in the system simply because his/her child has made the "choice" to school abroad. grin

kenny987:
The choice to send children abroad to study is just exactly that, choice! However, the Nigerian govt has a sworn duty to develop and sanitise the education system. If they fail to do that it is no fault of honest Nigerians who want their children to have different experiences. Instead the govt can and should direct that no ward of elected or appointed govt officials should school abroad. That's their prerogative.

Frustrating access to legitimate funds for business and other commitments is just wrong.
choice indeed, as if all Nigerians can make such.

you speak of government as an entity different or separate from Nigerians.

PoliticsRe: FG To Slash Federal Lawmakers’ Salaries by menxer: 8:47am On Aug 26, 2015
please what is the KPI (key performance index) of our NASS members compared to their remuneration?

sitting allowances should be scraped and replaced with allowances for bills passed into law.

how can we pay people for just "sitting",
when the "sitting" does not translate to laws made?

after all, everywhere in Naija people are "sitting" but don't get paid. grin

RomanceRe: 7 Strategies For Meeting Mr Right.. by menxer:
ladies that have the temerity to do the listed are the ones we call "mma Ino" aka "runs girl"grin. that's why they marry the best guys in town.

you expect my praise team leader to hunt for a man in a jazz joint? even if na church jazz event she won't blink at the guy, talk less of walk across the hall to say "hi", else she would have married since.

OP urs is the ideal list, am still looking for the formula to calculate the percentage of Naija ladies that would practice it. grin

drivers license can be integrated also; road safety and police can be issued a device that would display all the info embedded in the card.

RomanceRe: Singles And Sex: How Do I Say No When My Hormones Say Go? by menxer: 11:55pm On Aug 24, 2015
The write up does little Justice to the topic.

It's a mistake to think that spiritual thoughts and activity deadens the sexual hormones, but on the contrary it energizes the bodily functions.

Some worship songs are sexual in nature.
There is a worship song with the following lyrics:

"....i can feel your love inside of me.."

Think of a sex starved lady singing that. grin

Christianity EtcRe: Bishop Oyedepo Says Ladies Attitude Today Is Why Marriages Are Failing Much. by menxer: 8:34pm On Aug 24, 2015
Does he preach submission over tithing, first fruits, sowing seeds? Don't get me twisted.

Woman is a helper, like fire, a good 'servant' but not that good a 'master'.

Women equality has reversed the role of women in the scheme of things from the helper to the helped.

...that's why men help women do virtually everything, instead of practicing the principle of "the virtuous woman".

...that's why a woman expects a man to pay her house rent when it's due. Buy her phone and recharge vouchers etc.

...not many women understand or know their role, those that do, are happily married and their men are basking in that glory. grin
RomanceRe: 7 Silly Characters In Guys That Can Turn A Lady Off by menxer: 7:05am On Aug 24, 2015
francizy:
Even tho I hate doing most of the things you listed if not all, I'd advice any reasonable guy not to stop doing whatever he does just because you girls wish so. Do you know how many things girls do that pisses guys off? But in many cases, the guy just bears it. But on the other hand, you girls expect a guy to be perfect just because of you.

I've learnt in life that whenever I meet a woman who nags over little things, best thing's to run else, the relationship won't last.

By the way, I don't think you should add bad grammar up there because not everyone was afforded the opportunity to attend good schools or even attend any. I see it as discrimination.

Ronald4lif, a million likes..
That's the part I dont understand, lady expecting guy to overhaul his lifestyle just to be accepted, yet she wants guy to accept her as she is.

Does it mean classy lady does not "shit"?
