Coming from the first female Governor in Nigeria.


Fiction!

Being a female wont make somebody a bad governor and being a female is not an insult

jnoz23:
You no serious

Lol

mu2sa2:
Bros, maybe you need eye glasses. Hahahaha, speck of dust on a brand new certificate. The dust flew all the way from Sahara desert, abi.

You need to take some lemon juice to neutralise your bitterness upon somebody else's success

What about her graduation gown? Is there a comma there too?

Bad belle

Lol warri no dey carry last

Juliearth:
It boils down to semantics. Article "an" is used for hospital( pronounced ospital) but I won't flag off an individual that uses the artcle "a" provided the h sound is obvious. Same semantics applirs to happy. Note that its consonant sound and not consonant word.

Historically words like "hospital" and "hotel" have been pronounced as "ospital" and "otel", so they used "an". But this pronunciation is no longer accepted

the "h" in "happy" is always pronounced except if the person is not saying it correctly. So she is wrong

mu2sa2:
Look at the position of the comma again. How can a "world-class" universities allow such blunder on it's most important documents?

Lol Its your mentality that has comma and not the certificate

Look at the resolution of that so-called "comma" compared to the rest of the printed words. Why is the "comma" less sharply focused than the writing? Im telling you its just a piece of dust and youre still saying nonsense to console yourself and your poor result

Or maybe youre looking at it on a cheap phone that doesnt allow you to see very well. As if youve ever seen a university of London certificate before. Are you the NYSC certificate verification brigade?

Chai! Bad people everywhere oh. I bet this Maryam babe is sneezing seriously right now wherever she is with all the rubbish you people are saying about her

Breaststroke:
,My Bible tells me that when I pour out my heart/feelings to God in prayer, I shouldn't turn off my capacity to think.

Yeah I agree with you, we need to be more realistic about these things instead of "leaving it to God" all the time.

Probably because its an important decision, people find crutches to lean on, like "he is more religious", "he has more money" so that they wont have to dig deep and look into the details

But its the details that come back to haunt you in later life! O di egwu

prinxwizard:
I can deliberately leave my phone at home, yes but it doesn't mean I can't forget to take my phone with me. That 19 is a fat lie.

Really its not a lie its a popular grammatical quandary that people talk about a lot. Truly, you are supposed to refrain from saying that you "forgot" something in a place for syntactical reasons

But practically it makes more sense to us to say it that way

djoe21:
midnighter come and see.

Lol ive seen it oh. He shouldnt have let her film it

Ibime:
In Queen Mary University? You're joking.

This is one of my former Alma mater. Them been nearly kill us with work. Every week, we had 4 serious pieces of homework to submit, all of which count toward your final grade. Each piece of work was like 2 to 4 hours of work.

Some Naija graduates cannot even form proper sentences. They would die in QM.

yes! anyone who knows anything knows that their Law department and Barts medical school are some of the most prestigious in the world

People who studied at some backwater community college in Ohio will come here and open their pus-infected orifices to say that 1st class is easy

KingAzubuike:
How Nigerians really reason can be baffling atimes. They keep saying it's easy to make this and that abroad... You can only acheive such if you work hard and the UK educational system is designed for you to work hard and use your brains.. you on your own part wouldn't even want to burn the millions of naira (equivalent) you are paying as school fees so you gat no choice than to sit up. No Nigerian university is even among the best 1000 in the world yet see them running their mouth like tap.
Cc m!dnighter

Lol dont mind them... inferiority complex dey worry all of them

Uk universities should look up to Nigerian universities that go out of their way to frustrate their students, otherwise theyre not "serious" according to these backward people.

So UK policemen should start collecting £1 bribes and harassing people, otherwise theyre not "real" policemen. People just reason from their backside

DonBenny77:
By your moniker one can tell your occupation. It's was the Henny in me that quoted you earlier. I don't exchange with farm tools.

Im grateful that you've admitted that youre a drunkard. Maybe you will tell us that you showed up drunk to all your "foreign" examinations and still scored 100%

Rubbish human being. Its your generation thats full of farm tools

mu2sa2:
Look closely at the certificate:"Bachelor of laws with, Honours First Class" - either the certificate is fake or the university authorities don't know the basic rule of placing comma. Again, how can a university worth the name award a Bachelor of Laws "in law". Do you award Bachelor of laws in any discipline other than law?

Its not a comma its just dirt/dust

They are specifying the degree type and the subject

Like "Bachelor of Arts, with degree in English"

"Bachelor of Science, with degree in Physics"

LLB has its own name so thats why it looks like that

lexy2014:
No one is talking about ranking which is what u talking about. Folks are only saying its easier for a Nigerian or anyone to get a first in d UK than in a Nigerian public school

Then they should say it like that and stop bringing their inferiority complex into it

She didnt school in Nigeria so what is the point of them saying it

philipobiz:
This is recircled post. Mod do you have interest in the poster or Maryam?

To be honest I think he is her father.

"Abu Maryam" means "Papa Maryam"

jnoz23:
I be pure isoko boy o! But you are not the first to say I resemble those people sha!

Lol isoko wado! you for kuku learn hausa, go up there and collect one of them, Maybe they wont even flog you first

OChimex:
Maybe they meant that the stress one goes through in our universities couple with lack of learning facilities, sound and unbiased lecturers; not conducive environment, hunger, malaria, and barrages of sicking news around Nigeria make it fantastically impossible to achieve the deserved academic excellence.

So if one gets Third Class under these unfavorable conditions in Nigeria, probably that person will get first class in any institutions in the Western world without those bedevilling challenges ?

Of course that is true but they are being vindictive about it. Of course somebody who grew up in harsh conditions will fly high in easier conditions.

But the way theyre trying to minimise somebodys achievement is pathetic to see

Its actually paining them that someone achieved something

DNSPro:
A guy left Nigeria with lower credit, went to the the US and made a first class..

The person I am talking about is a nairaland member who shared his story with us.

If somebody had an issue or wasnt able to fulfil his potential in Nigeria, but came upon better circumstances or less distractions in the US and was able to better himself, why must you turn it into an avenue to bash others The ways people are taught and assessed in Nigeria and in other countries are totally different

The primary and secondary curricula in Nigeria are often more advanced because we start university at 16 while other countries start at 18. And its based on the old O-level system from the British, which is more challenging than what they are teaching nowadays. So it would be easier for the average Nigerian student to grasp the material in another country.

Thats all you need to say! Give clear evidence for your opinion and stop looking for ways to look down on people

In other countries there is more emphasis on practical work, research, publications and innovation. No need to keep cramming pages and pages of notes from 1982 about the theory of whatever. They will just learn the basics and get straight to the point

You people want all other countries to start behaving like Nigeria so you can feel better

DonBenny77:
travel and see "Bushman"

Lol as if you have even left your village before, uncivilised brute. There's no school, at home or abroad, that could ever admit you with your stupid attitude. First class degree in backwardness.

Oya tell me to shutup again and shame your so-called "school". Useless creature

Lol why cant they do brain scans before selling phones to people. Some people go dey siddon for mud house dey press phone dey yarn rubbish

DonBenny77:
that was a typo English is just one language, people that can't speak English still do first class. With your myopic membranes

Idiot, can membranes be myopic? Do membranes have eyes?

Your entire life, from conception up till now is a big typo

DonBenny77:
Shut up u don't know anything some of us schooled abroad as well. First class is easy there for a Nigerian student. The students are spoon fed. It's easy...

Lol i hope you yourself are not included in the "us". I "done" know anything abi?

Funny how the so-called "intelligent", "foreign" graduates in this place are jumping around shouting at people to shutup instead of simply stating their point

First class degree from UK School of Agbero Knowledge and Toutery, tueh!

GraciaKim:
You just called a pre wedding photoshoot a joke?

If an image isn't realistic then what should it be? Swerve, you don't have a point.

The pre-wedding photoshoot is not a joke, but the concept is a humorous and not a realistic one

Even a real market trader would clean up before taking the photo

What should it be? In this case it should be more polished since, as you said, its not a joke

jnoz23:
Is she not supposed to have a brain before?
As if having a brain is a new thing!!!

As for beauty, I'm still looking for it, cos she looks like all those factory produced Fulani babes!
Same face, same makeup, they all resemble themselves!

Lol your picture even looks like Fulani, are you sure youre not just trying to drive guys away from your sister

franchasng:
Any Nigerian student that manages to sit for WAEC and JAMB whether he or she passes or not can graduate with a first class in universities in US, Europe, Canada, Australia, etc.

Let her come back, enrol at UNN, or UNILAG or UI or FUTO or FUTA or OAU or the likes and bag 3rd class then we can agree that she is truly intelligent.

Like someone rightfully said, a 3rd class graduate from a Nigerian government University or Polytechnic can bag a first class in a foreign university.

franchasng:
shutup! Did she invented anything new

Getting a first class in European or American or Canadian or Australian or even Asian university is very easy if you devote few hours of your time everyday to study and do the assignments your prof assigned to you.


Its not a big achievement bagging a first in a foreign institution, what white folks are more interested in is research, invention and using their brains and skills to create solutions to global challenges not doing your easy assignments and writing exams based on what they taught you, where lecturers want you to pass, unlike in Nigeria where lecturers and professors only derive joy when you fail or get a low grade in their course so you can come sort them or Bleep them like we have been hearing, so stop hailing her cos most Nigerians schooling in Nigeria will graduate with first class abroad if given the opportunity to travel out to study abroad.

So you are not really talking about intelligence, you are talking about being able to beat our bad system which is not supposed to be bad in the first place

So how is there any comparison

She can only be intelligent if she can prove that the UK law professors tried to invite her to a hotel room? Or if she suffers unnecessarily reading outdated lecture notes full of grammar with no diagrams? Is intelligence supposed to be marked by suffering?

Some people sha. Drop a congratulations and leave, they wont

Where is the sense in this thing you just said now?

Trying to dim somebody else's light wont make your own shine brighter, hope you know that

Fine babe, well done Be sure to come back and sue all our stupid politicians to oblivion

@abumaryam012 is that her real certificate? Maybe you should take it down...Its kind of a sensitive document right

BluntBoy:
Beans and ijebu garri with very cold water (I like drinking cold garri water granted that the garri is Ijebu garri)

If you want to make me super excited, put a lot of palm oil, and some ground crayfish in the beans.

Lol I understand you, I enjoy it as well

Coolgent:
Today u cant even be a Governor between 31 to 41yrs, some are even trying to become ward councillors

Lol and be part of the "youth"

victorian:
Me sef, I wonder too o

Because this my friend hustle like no tomorrow . and its making her age quick, I then asked her what about your husband ? She said I shouldnt even mention him that he's a very wicked man , he doesn't give her a dime and he travels abroad for biz and back. I say na wa o!

Hmm such men are not one and not two , they are considerable number of them in the society . Where they originate from? I don't know o.

Good women please be very careful whom u decide to settle down with, so you won't regret and say had I known.

Be very careful and prayerful about it .
May God help us all. Amen

Hm. Amen oh

GraciaKim:
There should be sweats, think about it. The man was coming from a place inside the scorching sun. The sweats makes it more realistic.

Lol was it supposed to be realistic?

They were just joking and not acting a movie. How can the guy be looking like that and taking a photo

The man is not particularly old, just overweight

Unfortunately he looks too realistic as a market guy while she only looks like shes acting

Or should that be fortunately It should be a good thing that she looks better than him rather than the other way around

Well HML! Your wedding photos will not be taken in the market, so you wont strain yourself too much for them haha

Why not stop tweeting and go ahead and do it, mind our business from what

They just wanted to spoil somebodys evening
