Here in kano, things are becoming cheaper. If u have the strength to cook, the it's ur time to get fat. Okro N50 here, you can't finish it. They is this farmer, he sell farm product directly from his farm, oh the whole corpers living around here can't forget this man.

If you want to cook, just tell the man to give u tomatoes + vegetables + onions + pepper, = N100, and he will park it and give to you. the first day I experienced it, it was like a dream, but I see it's because, we are in the rainy season.

Also, having good friends in Nysc can save u a lot, here, am grateful to my female corpers, they always make sure am well fed. they see to it that eat well. Most of them came with this "I am engaged " talk, like we want to disengage them, but now we are living our dream. Anyway, inside the lodge, kano is cool.

Fryzi:
Honestly, I thought we already lost ur article to d cold mouths of those who was wagging their tongues trying to derail ur story. Thank God u re back n 4 good.

Lol, am back sir.

what more can I say, having a feel of what lecturers feel, ranging from exam hall to unnecessary calls, love and gifts, funny words and stylish green light, it seems there is no difference here.

Every girl wants to associate with us, they call, show love to us. I think that's the best we are getting now. Since they are tied strictly to their religion, truth be told, sex here is not cheap unless you take extraordinary measures. The reason is so is largely caused by the fact that most of their life revolve round kano and their religion. their culture made it in such a way that they know no man.


one of my student's was telling me how, a typical Kano girl live her life. it was shocking to realise it was coming from a girl. They accepted the fact that they are not exposed but it still shock me to realise that they actually do nothing at home.

missyojo:
Op welcome back

Thank you Swthrt, happy reading.

Fingerprinter:
Ok, We all know you ain't a virgin, but keep lying though!

Lol, believe that part at your own peril.
Guy me nah Virgin

I had to give my kano girlfriend a break when I realised she was too religious. I called it a quit, till we met one day at my HOD's office and she started apologizing. she came with her friends, seeing how shy she used to be, I opened it up, I told her friends that she is my friend, I could see the fears caused by being shy, the confidence too, she lost herself, for the very first time, we sat together, she looked at me eyeballs to eyeballs. Shame gone, fears gone. Her beautiful face was glaring, yes, she didn't come with hijab, she wore their native dress, with her shoes and hand bag matching the dress.

She apologized to me, she told her friend that I will soon convert to Islam. I looked at her, she knows it's practically impossible, she demanded that I sent her a success message. it was exam time.

Day by day, I kept receiving calls and messages from ladies, my students and those that collect my number from their friends, will I still keep myself am I about to eat the forbidden fruit? why will I break my virginity to a northern girl?? this questions only time can answer

Dream2:
LOL,you welcome,keep it coming bro.

thanks

I must acknowledge the fact that Kano natives are good. They can relate with u and make u happy. I have met so many of them. They brought gift to me during Sallah, we went out together to see the Emir as he went to his mothers home in Dorayi. it was fun celebrating Sallah here, they exhibited their culture to the peak, everywhere was bubbling but no excitement. They cooked their best food.

But one thing I realised is that, majority went to sabon gari both to drink and for party. The same sabon gari they called an evil place, there I saw their girls in swimming pools, with no hijab, nothing. I couldn't believe it, neither will u believe it.

Gentlemen, I have never seen a more religious place like Kano. Everything is religion. The neutral ground for starting any thing is if u r in same religion with them. my Kano girlfriend amused me so much. we don't discuss anything apart from her religion. she spend most of our time talking about how her religion is the only thing that we keep us together.

Justifying my earlier stand, I took a time during my revision class to talk about Kano. I asked my class of 100 students when they start islamiya and western education, I was told it begins from birth. That's the first thing they do. it was a risk but I discussed religion with my students, I asked them questions justifying my earlier take.

I was supervising a class, one of the student came with a baby, due to pity, I backed the baby, during d exam, I asked her when the child will start school and which school, I was told Islamic education at age three.

Welcome back. The thread is about to get hot again. Am back with full strength, experience and stories to tell. Am sure u will enjoy it.

I am most grateful

PDP accused buhari of going against court rulings, are they planning to do same??

Justice Okon Abang is doing the right thing. We must set things right and it's now.

I don't even know why some youths come in here to defend the very people that kept us where we are today. If they have no confidence on Justice Okon Abang, why then did they have a lawyer and even go to the extent of making several prayers and even defending themselves. when judgement didn't favour them, they call Okon Abang names.

Well I don't think there is any contribution, but one thing I know is that most things in Christianity has helped channel science Infact most scientists say that magic is where science has not reached.

They are in different course but religion must agree with science. Christianity deals with belief system whereas science deals with reality, things we can mass produce. For instance, it's not all Christians that can do miracle, like healing the sick, prophesy and so on. But when a phone is produced in china for instance, with same procedure, that same phone can be produced everywhere around the world.

science is helping us use our brain. Left for religion, we would still be in stone age but science help us think and fulfill the purpose of God. For a Christian, rain comes from heaven, but for a scientists like me, it comes from the cloud and nowhere beyond the troposphere but a handiwork of God.

All things science does is what nature has placed for us. Science help us understand and explore them more. Though science is trying to prove the non existence of God, but at the end, it will end up proving the existence of God

In conclusion, Christianity or religion has no impact of science, science only try to prove things people believe in religion. Thanks

JSoE:
Well,you have 'your' point to make but that doesn't make it 'the' point.Whatever you think of my comment is on you.Like the brilliant guy said,if you have a better explanation to the thread,please put it forward to debunk his comment.I'm not really interested in the validity of the Schrödinger's equation here,I'm just thrilled by the fact that someone could easily trigger in me the zeal to take every knowledge serious .Why don't we focus on this inspiration by a fellow African? I mean,this guy is intelligent even if he's wrong.After all,a one-eyed man is a god in the midst of a blind population. You should explain to us your own view on the topic.After that,I'll give you the address to my school so you'd go tell my lecturer how insane he is.

Why will I comment when someone has openly raped modern physics. It is totally wrong for him to take on d ignorance of majority to deceive them. He is wrong., Infact I have to copy and paste what he said on my class group, and you will not like to read what they said about t. If he is a physicist, let him open a thread in d science section. Infact everything the op said has NOTHING to do with the schrodinger equation. they are mere believes people have. it's just like saying that the existence of God has been explained by S.E. it's wrong.


And for your lecturer teaching you Quantum mechanics in first year, I would like to know the school but I still maintain that it is wrong. Infact I have listened to lectures on quantum mechanics from MIT, Stanford university, IIT, their whole series of semester lecture on quantum mechanics, none were taught to first year physics students let alone non physics students.

if it were the only course you will do in ur first year, none of u in d class will understand it.

GogobiriLalas:
Thanks for the response, what I'm referring to is Schrodinger's wave function especially as it applies to quantum computing or the String placement hypothesis..all remains in the realm of conjecture..granted that quantum computing is at its teething phase as we speak

But do u think that S.E has anything to do with what the op stated? I don't. I have solved schrodinger equation for different potential energy, studied S.E yet I haven't come across how it can be applied to the things d op stated as someone is making d ignorance people believe. if this post had been in science section, am sure it would have been dealt with.

elpedro:
Dang... That Schrödinger ish is Classic.. Superstition holds sway in Africa though ..

The Dream part gets to me sha.. People actually think dreams are supernatural moments.. Methinks Dreams are all about the Interpretation of our Brain functions during sleep.. We create cities, cars, people, conversations, actions and sometimes, we experience the dream-inside-a-dream moment...

Einstein is another being entirely.. His works are pure class and I hold his findings in high regards...


Thanks for the piece you wrote brother.. Now, I gotta read more on this...

Don't deceive urself. S.E is more complicated than u r meant to believe. u will run. infact u won't see S.E talk about things like this.

GogobiriLalas:
Incredible nonsensical ignorance, highly pretentious bowl of crock and I mean this not to deride or insult you...it's nice to see a Nigerian interested in these sorts of things, but your knowledge is quite elementary and besides it stems from an established premise I.e. I sense an already established animosity towards God and the state of Israel, hence anything you espouse is tinged with bias, you will not make a good scientist.
Concerning the issue itself I'm unable to say much here, none of these scientific theories you've espoused have been established; string theory and and Schroeding's hypothesis remain in the sci-fi realm...even quantum mechanics is just being understood.
It is the glory of God to hide a matter and it's the glory of kings to search it out...because you've discovered basic scientific principles in no way invalidates the idea of God...in fact the opposite is true, the fact that some kind of order exists in what we would otherwise have considered random acts of nature indeed points to the fact of design...

Calm down bros. S.E (schrodinger equation ) is real and in use even as we speak.

but the truth is that the equation did not in anyway relate to what he was using t to prove I.e ops question. Schrodinger equation is far beyond this, more complicated Infact using t this way is like misusing it.

JSoE:
Wow.Just wow.Would you believe I had a lesson on Schrödinger's equation in first year but not very elaborate obviously because the lecturer is a Christian? As an African mind,I didn't think of going back to make a research on it.I'd have to start taking things seriously,I guess.
Dude,I put it to you.You're a smart one.Keep it up.

Anyone teaching u Schrodingers equation in first yr and expect u to understand t is insane. Infact it is insane to teach u S.E equation in first year.

Am just trying to relate what the Person u quoted with S.E. the truth is that he is just using S.E to explain it. in reality we do not see S.E talk about things like what op said. simple and short.

I must confess, Oron is a nice place. Good food, enough water, big fish, nice ladies etc

Both!

Nwogeh:
@Mrphysics, I guess you are from Okposi. cos me too

Lol brother yea. let me P.M u

princey83:
Half of my Engineering Physics degree was spent studying Nuclear Engineering and materials science. I now currently work in the electrical engineering industry. Most of the countries listed above are already trying to get rid of their nuclear generating station for sustainable means of generating electricity. Money that would be spent on research purposes for nuclear source of power should instead be spent on making sustainable energy more efficient.

The cooperation i currently work for has a mix of hydro, wind, heat recovery from biomass, solar and coal. Coal being the source with the largest input, but most of the research at my work place is focused on making coal cleaner as it's still the cheapest source of generating power.

I heard Enugu has a large coal deposit. Nigeria should make use of that, and focus some research on making coal cleaner. There are lots of Nigerian born stationary/steam engineers in North america that would relocate to Nigeria if the country embraces coal.

Good to know. How far did you go into material science and Nuclear? Are you a physicist? or engineer?

Teempakguy:
you spelled my moniker wrong.

So sorry sir, it's a name so pardon me. your take on the issue. do you think the government is making a nice move?

L for Lalasticlala, S for Seun.

What can you do with the thread?

Lets give Nairalanders the opportunity to brainstorm and discuss the issue. The world and government are watching us.

johnydon22:
I'd rather prefer we utilize other sufficient forms of energy generation that are also safe and green.

Solar
wind

Also, i suggest that other private companies who feel they can generate enough power easily from solar and wind should do it and sell. I think there is a license given to private power companies.

But Nuclear is what only government can sponsor

johnydon22:
I'd rather prefer we utilize other sufficient forms of energy generation that are also safe and green.

Solar
wind

Thinking so too. But even if we generate just 1000MW of electricity from Nuclear, it will help in developing the subject and increase research also.

Governments are not ready to do anything on that solar and wind energy, so if they have chosen Nuclear, it just have to favour research.

4. National Risk : Nuclear energy has given us the power to produce more weapons than to produce things that can make the world a better place to live in. We have to become more careful and responsible while using nuclear energy to avoid any sort of major accidents. They are hot targets for militants and terrorist organizations. Security is a major concern here. A little lax in security can prove to be lethal and brutal for humans and even for this planet.


5. Impact on Aquatic Life : Eutrophication is another result of radioactive wastes. There are many seminars and conferences being held every year to look for a specific solution. But there is no outcome as of now. Reports say that radioactive wastes take almost 10,000 years to get back to the original form.


6. Major Impact on Human Life : We all remember the disaster caused during the Second World War after the nuclear bombs were dropped over Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Even after five decades of the mishap, children are born with defects. This is primarily because of the nuclear effect. Do we have any remedy for this? The answer is still no.


7. Fuel Availability : Unlike fossil fuels which are available to most of the countries, uranium is very scarce resource and exist in only few of the countries. Permissions of several international authorities are required before someone can even thought of building a nuclear power plant.



8. Non Renewable : Nuclear energy uses uranium which is a scarce resource and is not found in many countries. Most of the countries rely on other countries for the constant supply of this fuel. It is mined and transported like any other metal. Supply will be available as long as it is there. Once all extracted, nuclear plants will not be of any use. Due to its hazardous effects and limited supply, it cannot be termed as renewable.

Disadvantages of Nuclear Energy


1. Radioactive Waste : The waste produced by nuclear reactors needs to be disposed off at a safe place since they are extremely hazardous and can leak radiations if not stored properly. Such kind of waste emits radiations from tens to hundreds of years. The storage of radioactive waste has been major bottleneck for the expansion of nuclear programs. The nuclear wastes contain radio isotopes with long half-lives. This means that the radio isotopes stay in the atmosphere in some form or the other. These reactive radicals make the sand or the water contaminated. It is known as mixed waste. The mixed wastes cause hazardous chemical reactions and leads to dangerous complications. The radioactive wastes are usually buried under sand and are known as vitrification. But these wastes can be used to make nuclear weapons.


2. Nuclear Accidents : While so many new technologies have been put in place to make sure that such disasters won’t happen again like the ones Chernobyl or more recently Fukushima but the risk associated with them are relatively high. Even small radiation leaks can cause devastating effects. Some of the symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and fatigue. People who work at nuclear power plants and live near those areas are at high risk of facing nuclear radiations, if it happens.


3. Nuclear Radiation : There are power reactors called breeders. They produce plutonium. It is an element which is not found in the nature however it is a fissionable element. It is a by-product of the chain reaction and is very harmful if introduced in the nature. It is primarily used to produce nuclear weapons. Most likely, it is named as dirty bomb.

what's the state of Uranium mining in Nigeria??


The Nigeria Uranium Mining Company (NUMCO) was a parastatal organization that controlled the exploration and mining of uranium in Nigeria and was a public/private partnership with Total Compagnie Minière of France , which owned 40% of the company. In 1989, Total pulled out of the partnership, and in 1993 the government reassigned NUMCO's responsibilities to the Nigerian Geological Survey . The NUMCO corporation was dissolved in 1996, and the government is in the process of liquidating its remaining assets. [8]
Recently, several important uranium deposits were discovered in Cross River State , Adamawa State , Taraba State , Plateau State , Bauchi State , and
Kano State by the British Geological Survey .

Lalasticlala, seun, Ujsizzle how do we support science and technology?

let us give it the same media publicity we gave to Dino Melaye and Tinubu's wife saga.

Or Laura Ikeji's Bo.obs and pregnancy is better than this??
