The responsibilities that come with being a first child are humongous. I'm not a first child but I'm aware of several challenges my elder brother passed through up to this stage;It's been one challenge to another.

It all started when we were teenagers growing up in the village with our grandma.My brother would do menial jobs just to get money for my Christmas clothes at his own detriment.He was always happy doing this.

His elementary and secondary educations suffered major setbacks because of financial constraints. During my brother's time,we were living in abject poverty. he struggled all the way from primary school to the university level;this affected his performances immensely.

I never passed through all these;mine has been free-flow so far.

I've always prayed for my success to pay him back.

First borns;I pity una!

ha! bet why? lo and behold! the world stood still after hearing this

I've been told many lies but one of those I found more funny is the one my mum used to tell me and my siblings:''If you drink coconut water,You'll lose your memory and become a dullard forever " But reverse is the case,It has enhanced my memory and thoughts.

goingape1:
question 1: I must have been a failed father who didn't teach my daughter the moral of life or my daughter is the foolish type and if any man would ask her hand in marriage, I will tell the man that if you want to marry my foolish daughter I will never be responsible for the outcome.

question 2; if the table was turn around assuming the single mother was my sister or daughter. as for the daughter part, I have answered the question above and if it was my sister I will tell her right in the face that she is a stvpid girl for making that kind of mistake.

Your comments depict how parochial and naive you're. I wouldn't be shocked if you're still a teenager.Though,you were making points to some extent,your juvenile-self revealed itself..It's people like you that end up condoning abortions just because you want a happy life for your child.

kunlesufyan:
Put your self in your parent's shoes, would you allow your child who has had a child before??Think very hard before answering the question.

And how does it make her less humane than other ladies out there?Assuming you're the father of this lady in question,would you ever give out her hands in marriage?

Thanks bros

you're welcome.
which school and department did you finish from?

BabyGirl114:
Yes sir,my passion is high,but you said those who performed well aint gonna be picked, thats exactly my fear

One of the greatest obstacles to success is fear-If you can do away with and remain positive,focus and resolute; success will be yours.Who says you can't make it even with the prevailing situation?

BabyGirl114:
Hi everyone, Please I need your prayer and help, am an aspiring student of medicine,I wish to study it after my MSC, which I will likely be finishing nextyear.I actually want to study it for the knowledge I will gain from it, I have decided to write WAEC again,Jamb too, my problem is that am afraid of how am going to gain admission, because all my brain is telling me is that everything in Nigeria is through long leg, and I am a daughter of nobody, that has always weaken me. Am an average student and I believe I will be able to struggle the medicine year through but those medicine students close to me won't just stop telling me medicine is very difficult and 80%of student will end up not graduating etc,this has created large fear in my heart. Am a female and am not in the rich side, some people will even say in studying medicine I will have to be buying different costly textbook.Please advise with schools to choose, what I should be aiming for in my WAEC,JAMB etc. Am really afraid of WAEC because I don't believe they give one ones result as when I wrote my first WAEC, there was almost nothing I knew not in those subjects I took, but still I ended up with Cs.There are some schools in my area that have been tagged schools that have As in their WAEC,those with B grade and those with grades etc, but then, I was young and foolish and thus think its not true until my friends we are of the same brilliancy level got As and I ended up with Cs

From your story so far,It's vivid your passion for medicine is astounding but you must be very wise in choosing your institution.Gone are those days when people are placed on the same level of tests and those who actually impressed are ultimately admitted.

The change in the system has disrupted the mode of admission giving those with distinctions upper hand:this is where the choice of institution comes to play.

If you wouldn't want to compromise your belief and faith,you shouldn't indulge in examination malpractice but if you wish,it's your choice to make.

Lastly,believe in yourself that you'll make it no matter what happens.winners don't quit!

mrsfavour:
pray hard. good wives scarce these days.

Hmm...No doubt.

mrsfavour:
my type of mum can't even use her ear to hear that am even smiling to another man in my office, na that day she go ask my husband to get me back my laugages to my father's house. yes ur right,it depends on her mum type. but what the lady is doing ,personally I don't like it.

I'm beginning to fear women with the unceasing stories I see on social platforms everyday.I pray God gives me an archetype of my mum as a wife .

mrsfavour:
I think ur wife shld know the extents she can condole in that her office, u don't need to remind her, she shld know she is married. Ask her again BC I think she is cheating, if she refuses pls invite her mum.

So you think her mum has any question to answer?definitely No:Nobody even knows how faithful is the mother.The husband has a lot of works to do:He needs to romantic,proactive and circumspect in dealing with this issue.

Zulu212:
Can't and will never happen in uniben.....we say a CAR BODO REJECTAMENTA to that

There was a time it could have happened to one of my group members in Agric..As penultimate students,while we were almost through with the day's practical work,we carved out time for ourselves to rest..Then,there came a very notorious lecturer who derives pleasure in intimidating students.He began to complain and insulting us,then he said ''All of you should kneel down,instantly, we started discharging but one of us couldn't.. The lecturer had to concentrate on the lady that didn't run..It was when she almost started weeping that she was allowed to go.It can happen anywhere; some lecturers are recalcitrant.

Curvinus:
Spokesman of the Northern Elders Forum Prof Ango Abdullahi has waded into ongoing debates about President Muhammadu Buhari's dismal performance in office, declaring emphatically that the country may never really get out of recession under the policies of the present administration. Here are excerpts of the interview....

Many people have been talking about the Nigerian economy, the recession, for instance. What is your assessment of the recession we are said to be in. Are we likely to get out of it soon?

No. My overall assessment or projections about the recession as presently managed or in terms of the proposals that are being made for us to get out of it is that we will never get out of it. It may sound too pessimistic but I cannot see how we will get out of recession with at least two or three of these policies on ground. One, the naira has been so decimated to the point of almost being valueless against currencies which countries we do business with. Let me give you an example. Supposing we want to improve on power, we are going to buy every pin, every screw, and everything else you think of that is associated with power development from outside the country which means that we have to get the naira equivalent to the dollar that you have to have to buy everything that you want to import for infrastructural development in this country. Where are you going to get it with a country where there is hardly any productivity anymore? The country is certainly unproductive. So I was arguing very strongly that one way to get out of recession is to reduce our consumption, particularly consumption of our unproductive public sector because the public sector is unproductive, take it or leave it. They may not like what I say, but it is unproductive. If our public sector had been productive we cannot be where we are in terms of our power supply and social infrastructure. It is not working. The productive areas have been neglected. They say agriculture will be the alternative, but look at the budget in 2016; agriculture was given 1.6 percent as the capital allocation for a sector that still provides 40 to 45 percent of the GDP. In the so-called 2017 budget, the allocation is 1.8 percent. The recommendation of FAO, IMF and other world bodies, developing countries should at least give 20 percent of their budgetary allocations to agriculture. This is what Malaysia did. Malaysia for 10 consecutive years their allocation to agriculture was not less than 15 percent annually and that’s why today when they got their seeds from us, the year they got their palm oil seeds I was just graduating from the University of Ibadan in 1964. Today if you fly over Malaysia you will see nothing except palm grooves. They are the largest producers of palm oil in the world and they are already converting palm oil into diesel. So, I cannot see any action now. I talked about the issue of salary.

The country must save from its wasteful spending. Eighty percent of our budget goes to recurrent. Recurrent means salaries and allowances of staff and with due respect to people in office the public sector is unproductive. So if it is unproductive one way of saving money from it is to reduce the size, but I don’t support reducing the size because it would create its problem. They should reduce the salaries, the salaries that are being paid to unproductive public servants. If the country cannot pay a minimum wage of N18,000 what is the justification of somebody getting N100,000, N200,000, N250,000, one million naira and many millions a month. So they are not really being honest with regards to seriousness in terms of saving our scarce resources in these various areas. They want to leave like before when we were getting this windfall which again has been wasted which is why we are where we are today. So agriculture they have neglected, unproductive sector is taking our money, and the third one is our consumption pattern, which we have not domiciled to put in alignment with our capacity to produce. One will like to demonstrate the decimation of the naira. In 1986, I bought one dollar and 40 cents with one naira and I bought one pound sterling with one naira 20 kobo.

Today if I want one pound sterling I have to go and find N670 and if I want one dollar, even in the Central Bank they will take N305. You tell me how this could work. And you can also use an example of labour. In UK the minimum wage per hour is seven pounds, 50 pence. Supposing one works for five hours in a day, he is getting 40 pounds per day. Now, multiply 40 pounds into naira, that is 40 pounds times 300, that is roughly N120,000. This is the minimum wage being paid to a labourer working for five hours in London and you are not able to pay N18,000 a month as minimum wage. Something is totally wrong and I cannot see us out of recession until we go back almost to the beginning because I cannot see all these touch and go approach when you talk of productivity. Where is the productivity coming from?

The factories are closed. In Kano in the last five to 10 years about 10,000 factories have closed. Agriculture is not getting the allocation that will make key production. So I cannot see us getting out of this recession except through meetings. Officials are just deceiving themselves because they know that this is not going to happen under this current regime of remedies that are being proposed.

It's so dismal and disheartening that we still have old folks who feel nothing good can ever come out of this country..It depicts the bad mentality that has become part of us and thus,likelihood of being transferred to the next generation.. But as a patriotic Nigerian, I believe Nigeria will surely rise again.It will definitely take time but that day will come to pass.

Umtiti, Pique, Marscherano

Alba, Busquets, Iniesta, Vidal

This formation would favour Barca because the likes of Rakitic,Gomez and Dennis are all average right now.

ideology:
The road to career fulfillment as a graduate is different for many. We may have big dreams, but things may not pan out the way we want them. For those who find themselves on the receiving end of reality, no hope is lost.
Waiting for the job we desire does not mean we have to wait idly… There are always things we can do to maximize the time we have on our hands.

In the light of this, I have decided to share ten things you can do while waiting for that dream job.

Teaching
Much respect to the teaching profession, but this is one job that is readily available anywhere. There are many schools around Nigeria just starting out and looking for teachers.

Most times the pay is low for these schools. Take a stroll around your area and apply for teaching roles. Of course, teaching is a lucrative profession when you’ve got some experience and can deliver the goods. If you have good level of experience you can apply to standard ones such as Corona Schools, Chrisland Schools, Turkish School
Home lessons/Tutorials
Are you good with children? Do you enjoy impacting knowledge then home lessons are perfect for you? I know someone who makes over N100, 000 monthly from home lessons. However, trust me when I say he is good at what he does. It has its own set of peculiar challenges but can be a lucrative side job. If you can’t get kids from rich homes, try applying on Tuteria.com prepclass.com.ng

You can teach online too on Homeworks.ng and NigeriaTrainingCourses.com

Freelancing
There’s a lot of money on the internet. Freelancing is one way to tap into this gold stream. So if you’re good at writing (I mean excellent), then you may end up taking freelancing as a career itself.

Why? Because it pays and pays well. Same applies to graphic designers, web developers, programmers. Your skill is a money-spinner if you’re a genius at it.

Register on Freelancer, Fiverr, Elance, upwork, Belance, Nairalance, Pushnaira, Freeciti, Contentmart, vrtsk, even on Nairaland and earn some money from home

Learn a skill
The world today is more about what you can do with what you know. Many people know things; few people can actually do them. Instead of doing nothing, learn a new skill. Baking, sewing, writing, welding, graphics/web design, etc. Just learn something new related to your career path.

Blogging
If you’re into social media, then you can start a blog. Choose a niche and generate useful content for it. Blog for fun, write short stories, open an online diary. You never know, that blog could be a plus on your CV the day you apply for a Content Strategist or Digital Marketing role at a firm.

Click here and own a blog today for just 350/month


Take an online course
Similar to learning a skill. Take online courses when you can. It is your duty to educate and re-educate yourself. There are free courses online some of which come with valid certificates. IFP MOOC is one of them.

Also, check out Educations Macaranta Udemy, Lynda, Coursera, Alison Shaw Academy Sijison Training, Sijison Educational, Nigeria Training Courses, Nigeria Training Network and CodeAcademy for more.

Join the family business
Often times, some of us have a ‘family business.’ This can be a provision store, a restaurant or a construction firm. You can join in this business to learn a thing or two. Valuable life and career lessons can come from there too. Don’t forget we have business families on online forums like Quora and Nairaland, join one today.

Study past questions
For a recent NYSC leaver, it’s not out of place to finish every past job question you come across. Practice them until you can solve them in your sleep. Being good at these tests increases your chance of getting to the next stage and getting the job.

You can practice online too, on Learning Indicator Indiabix, SHL SHL direct

Be active in church
Of course am smart, but my secret of success has always been God. Be active in God’s Courts. Not just in church but also in any group you find yourself (like a book club). This does not mean it you stop doing so when you get what you want. It’s more about being useful wherever you find yourself. Better to spend that extra time being a blessing than spectating.

Volunteer
People often ask where they can see volunteer opportunities. I say they have to search harder. For example, the sickle cell foundation has a volunteer program open to the public. While writing this post, I also saw that of Foodbank. There are other causes around if you look well enough.

In conclusion, avoid being idle while waiting for the next job invitation. You to make good use of the time available while keeping one eye on your goal. In the famous words of Dick Dastardly,” Don’t just stand there, Do something.”

You're very foolish to have written this crap..Are you insinuating he should forget about his certificate and move on after 4 years?For the fact you couldn't go to school just because you're a dummy doesn't mean others are as dunce as you.Without certificate, what have you achieved now?

Not all medical officers are doctors. We have Nurses, pharmacists, etc

We Nigerians keep confusing ourselves with minute issues like this..If anyone who has a bsc degree in nursing or B.pharm tells you he/she is a medical officer,that person has committed a crime and It's punishable under the law..It's just we take some of these things with levity,thereby,endangering our lives and subjecting ourselves to charlatans..

Lexusgs430:
Medical officer and not Doctor......
Been a medical officer would entail roles that are not medical evasive in nature...

What's this one saying?If you don't have any meaningful thing to say,I urge you to keep mute.Doctors in the civil service(ministry of health) are called medical or Dental officers.
