Agboriotejoye: You started out with giving reasons why she could have spent five years. While I agree with the part-time, I let you know that possibility of her doing part-time is remote. But you insisted that it could have been the case bringing up reasons like being homesick like she's a secondary school student or she's been in Nigeria all her life. That's what I'm trying to let you see. There is nothing about her that we know that suggests she could be homesick for example giving the fact that she gets an holiday every three months, her parents go to the UK every five months or thereabouts. You also alluded to reasons people do part-time and I let you know such do not apply in her case except you don't realise the daughter of ego she is. Anyway the guy I was having the argument with was looking to prove that buhari never sent his child to school as president because yes!! He promised not to send any of his kids abroad as president at Chatham house. The illustration I gave you is to buttress the reason why these elites practically abandoned our educational system. Imagine if his daughter was in that school, do you think the rector could have done what he did? That's where I'm going with that illustration. I understand if you said it's possible she spent more than three years but you must also agree that the possibility is remote esp given the fact that it's the speed and structure of Uk schools that endears it to Nigerian elites The statement "the possibility of her doing part-time is remote" doesnt make any sense here, because anybody can do part-time for any reason. You asserted that people study part-time because of financial/work commitments, which is simply not true! So I provided you with other reasons that people may study part-time, the list of which was not exhaustive. This "there is nothing" "there is no reason" stuff is your sticking point. "There is nothing about her that we know ...". The things we know about her are very few. What about the whole host of other things that we dont know? Not only secondary school students get homesick, even adults can become so. She gets a holiday twice a year, so? What if its not enough for her, what if she's sick, what if shes dyslexic, what if she needs to be kept in line so that she doesnt misbehave, what if she takes time off for religious obligations, what if she couldnt cope with her studies, what if  We dont know! Your assertions can never cover the infinite possibilities that abound concerning why she may have done a part-time course. Okay; that was wrong of him anyway. He should have kept some in Nigeria but then, is it fair to allow the innocent baby to suffer an educational system that is lacking (that was not only his doing but also the doing of presidents past). He should just have kept his children out of his campaign because everybody knows that its not safe or practicable for them to study in Nigeria. Your illustration is apt; there is an Igbo adage that says "When somebody else's house is on fire, to you its as if theyre just burning trash". People only act like that when their own interests are not at stake. It's a pity. The speed and structure of foreign universities is what actually makes it more likely that she could spend 5 years in school because they are 100 times more organised and understanding of individual students' circumstances that can interrupt their studies. All they have to do is let the school know of their issue, fill out some forms and follow due process. If people could do such in Nigeria we wouldnt be reading sad stories on here every day of how somebody got kicked out at 300 level and had to start all over again. |

Agboriotejoye: Kindly explain how I bad-mouthed her graduation. It is even you and ur cohort that are claiming she spent five years that are bad-mouthing her graduation. I'm exposing the hypocrisy of the father and you're here defending it by saying she spent donkey years in school I was uninformed of the rationale behind your comment; from a bystander who just read that post in isolation by chance it seemed like you were just trying to pooh-pooh the girls achievement by going out of your way to prove that there was no way she could have schooled for 5 years. Now that you've explained that your motivation is related to the hypocrisy of politicians embezzling public funds meant for our educational system and lavishing them on their own children so that they will study outside, I can see that you weren't bearing an actual grudge against this lady but the circumstances that allowed her to go there. By the way 5 years is not "donkeys years" neither is it an insult. Somebody who scaled through a difficulty to complete their education will always be a source of admiration to others so the assertion is neutral and not negative. |

Agboriotejoye: Maybe you should have read the comment well before jumping in to display your zombeism. I'm irritated not that he sent his kids abroad to school, but the hypocrisy involved. For example, a certain polytechnic is closed presently because the rector bribed his way to extend his tenure beyond retirement age while deducting workers' salary arbitrarily. Again, why did the man deceive everybody that he would not send his kids to school abroad in 2015 when he had no intention of doing so? Why lie? Is it just to bear the title president? I'm sure you're aware that universities do go on holidays so I wonder where you got the idea from that she did not go home for years. Like I said, your poor attempts at plausible reasons for her to have spent five years remain conjectures. There's no logical evidence that any of such thing happened. Her sister Zahra who is older I believed spent 3yrs which is well known and in the social media. So I don't know how you expect me to accept ur conjectures which are all innuendoes I started out just informing you that it was possible for somebody to stay in school for over 3 years. Then you took it in another direction until we ended up here. I am not sure of the relevance of the bolded to the issue at hand; maybe you could contextualise it. That there are closed polytechnics, dilapidated universities and uninhabitable hostels up and down the country, though very unfortunate, does not detract from the fact that what I said was true. Are you referring to a campaign promise? If he pledged that he wouldnt send them abroad and then went ahead and did that, then he is a hypocrite, I agree. You said that the dude was in London for 3 months in 2017 so how can she be homesick when the father is around? Now that youve seen that that doesnt make any sense, you suddenly remembered holidays. The fact that her sister spent 3 years does not have anything to do with it; you must not follow exactly the same path as your sister, just because she is your sister. There is no logical evidence that anything like that happened, yet you havent given any logical evidence that it hasnt happened either. You dont want to acknowledge that what I said was true, just because they may possibly apply to the lady in question. Thats where all the argument is coming from All I said was that it was possible for somebody to stay in school for 5 years, which you want to argue about just because you dont want that woman in particular to have studied for 5 years. So rules which obtain for everybody in the UK suddenly must not apply to the woman because you want to prove a point about her father? Strange reasoning. |

Agboriotejoye: You don't know her too or do you? If you do kindly tell us if she did any of the above and indeed spent more than three years. What you and ur collegiate zombie are trying to do is to prove that Buhari did not send his daughter to school in the UK after becoming president. So far as we know, there is no reason for her to have to spend five years so all these ur conjectures remain what they are. And it remains presumable and logical that she spent three years and therefore started school after Buhari became president. All that ur homesick and arrange marriage as if Buhari no dey London for three months in 2017 na only you know. So, go and do ur investigations or keep quiet and stop defending who no send you work with half-truths and innuendos I am not defending anything Sir, I just saw the comment at the bottom of the page and replied to it. You shouldnt allow your irritation towards the president to cloud your judgement and start unnecessarily bad-mouthing somebody's graduation. Its not her fault that her father is the president, just like its not our fault that we are not children of presidents. I dont like him either but what youre saying doesnt make any sense. The man was in London for 3 months in 2017 so that means she wont go home for years? That is total nonsense. Youre the only person giving out half-truths and innuendos here, which is why youre finding it so difficult to defend what you wrote up there. |

Agboriotejoye: You answered the question yourself. Why would she take a part-time course? She does not need to work to pay her fees which is usually the reason for going part time. If you had said maybe she did a foundation course it would have sound more possible than part-time. I literally said that she may have done a part-time, foundation, IT or 1-year abroad course; go back and check. You wrote that "part-time does not mean that you will spend two years extra", when thats exactly what it means. Part-time is not only to do with work or money. Some people have long-term health conditions, small children, sick parents, or are unable to cope with the pace of the full-time course. Agboriotejoye: we can see, there is no peculiar circumstance for her to have had to spend five years since she's the president's daughter and everything is basically taken care of. You dont know if she was homesick and needed to spend time back home with her family, you dont know if she was trying to arrange her marriage, you dont know if her parents summoned her back home, you just dont know! People have all sorts of reasons for delaying their studies which they explain and work out with their programme tutor. Why are you making all these assumptions as if you know her  |

And I'm sure except she's a citizen or has a work visa, she can have no reason to do part-time course A part time degree in the UK takes 5 years or more. Lol the presidents daughter and youre talking about visa? After how many million  Ha! Anyway I was just reminding you that there are such circumstances that can extend the course beyond 3 years People also switch courses, take time off or do foundation years, who knows what her own case was. |

You can't claim people who don't want to be claimed. Is it not what you people always tell us about the ikwerres? Remove all those groups from your stats first.

Agboriotejoye: It's still not adding up. Most courses in UK universities have a 3-3.5 yrs duration. UK admission is twice in a yr which from your info will mean she got admission Feb/March session. 3yrs on means she should have graduated Feb last year or worst July depending on the course. So how come she's graduating one year later? You can study a course part-time which makes it longer. Plus some courses have an extra year for IT or experience in a foreign country |

greatbrian: For those trolling the op for asking his wife to get pregnant first, I feel you folks are very wrong and haven't seen life from another perspective. Lemme shock u guys many years ago when I was 15 or so, my uncle who z a doctor wanted me to join the medical profession so he always take me alongside to do surgery etc. We did lots of histerctomy or so. Complete removal of the uterus. Along side many we've even done. I can still remember a case if a lady. She was around 19 beautiful etc. She was a bad case when they rushed her in that year and my uncle called me to change into the theatre wear and use my nose guard. From what I heard the lady HV removed 4 pregnancy and this last one, she tried removing from a quack and the quack just cut the head of the baby etc . unknown to her, the babys leg was still inside and it was already decaying. Between God and man immediately they cut the tummy u need to see the smell. The babys skin already peeled off and decaying. It already affected the womb and everything that can make the lady into a woman.
My uncle was like Bryan u need to pray to God before u decided on meeting a lady this kind of girl now she will package herself after now and walk around and innocent guys will ask her out and marry her only for her not to be able to gv kids.
am not a party to sex before marriage though .but u need to see the number of ladies out there who can't even carry a baby again. Ask doctors and gynaecologist what they see each DAy with young ladies womb and you will tell ur woman to give birth first before marriage sO u wont end up marrying a lady without womb. Bottom line, I can't blame op at all on his pick about pregnancy before marriage You can test people for fertility before marriage. We aren't in the stone age. Truth be told, the guy just bullied that woman |

MissCookie: Omo see gbese ooo! 
I recall how midnighter adviced that you should opt for clean closure, most people on here wanted to rip her tongues out. Now you are caught up in this mess, an ugly predicament you would have dodged if you had gone for closure.
Ladies and gentlemen, seeking closure does not mean cowardice or weakness or inferiority complex, as a matter of fact, you seek for closure for your own sanity and for you to be able to move forward, peacefully.
Haba! Op would have invited her and some of his close families, tell them to their faces what she did, listen to whatever stupid excuse she wants to give and tell everybody his unquivering STANCE on the situation. That is what you call closure, maturity and a clean breakup.
You lots let your emotional side get the best of you but forgot that after one, then two.
Op, you are just the luckiest person, if that lad had died, your name would have been sorry.
Now the closure you refused to seek for, you will be forced to initiate it, albeit in the full glaring of plenty people.
Good luck! MissCookie: You are a wise and an emotionally intelligent person. Your contribution was one of the few wise ones I read here, but I was a bit confused why they were all misunderstanding you. Untill I remembered we have a lot of disgruntled young lads on here, who would rather cut off the nose to spite the face than go for a non destructive solution to a problem.

WackyJ1: Listen. I made a mistake in at that post.
Fine. The error was that I said Sultan5's reply was to you when it wasn't.
I have admitted that error but I maintained that since you and that person he was referring to shared the same point of view, agreed with one another and even exchanged compliments that what he wrote applies to you.
I refused to change it because the mistake had been made already and you've seen it. The mistake did not detract from my point not the general logic of my comment, so it changes nothing whether I leave it there or not. Haha  You've admitted the error but still left it there in your post, incorrigible soul. Youre propagating incorrect statements, while castigating somebody else for making incorrect statements; You are not serious! It only applied to me; it did not refer to me. So why not write it like that to correctly reflect the message you want to communicate? Isnt that what the "modify" button is for  That somebody shares the same views with me doesnt mean I must automatically answer every comment that pertains to them. Do you go about replying to absolutely everybody who happens to agree or disagree with you? No. But because you want to be difficult youre busy peddling lies in order to buttress your point, which wouldnt be necessary if you actually had any confidence in your argument. You know youre wrong! How can it not take away from your point when youre lecturing me about manipulation and incoherence, yet you cant even correct a simple misinformation when you are clearly wrong? So on what grounds are you challenging me? WackyJ1: In the entire post pointing out your... confusion, incoherence, subtle manipulation, blaming the OP and Contradictions
Which I buttressed with facts and examples of your previous comments in This thread. Nope! Up until the comment in that link you posted, what I wrote was totally in order. No contradiction there. After I made that error I was still in line with my previous line of thinking. What I had been saying from the beginning still obtains to the end. I made an error in my understanding of the problem and not in my judgement itself. If you leave a committed relationship without any discussion you're just kidding yourself. The fact that he didnt do that doesnt detract from the reasoning behind my comment, it just didnt apply to him specifically. Which I have acknowledged already. You are reading confusion and manipulations into it because you didnt understand the point I was making in the first place, which is why I abandoned you to your warped opinions and left you alone. WackyJ1: The only thing you have continued to point out is that I made a mistake which I admitted to.
It means you have nothing against the other things I wrote there and have only chosen to look at the weak link.
Which only makes you look weak. I just skimmed over your comment and acknowledged that you had made a mistake there without addressing the other points because I was done with the topic already. Whoever didnt get me by then wouldnt get me I knew from our last conversation that you wouldnt even understand me anyway. You would just write whatever you felt like, which is exactly what you did! You actually looked weaker by writing a paragraph instead of simply going back and correcting your error. It made you look immature and incorrigible. WackyJ1: You have replied every single guy here but when it comes to me.
Looks like someone who is defeated. It may look to you like defeat, you can tell yourself that if it makes you feel any better. Like i said, anybody who clicks that link you posted will definitely see that you were just talking off-point, so there was no need answering you again. WackyJ1: I am happy that you have seen where I also pointed out a comment that you missed where he clearly told the girl off in the presence of his sister.
Good to see that you had already apologised. Of course. An apology was in order. And I am actually sorry for missing that key piece of info. I only got so irritated because I wanted him to get rid of the girl finally instead of all that stuff you were saying. Which he did!  WackyJ1: While also admitting that you were insulting the OP based on incomplete facts because you were not observant enough to read all his replies. You are extremely funny to talk about incomplete facts when you have only quoted part of what I have written concerning this thread! You only selected quotes that suited your nefarious agenda which is why I never even bothered with what you had to say. |
