Yup, I am referring to Lutheran High School, Obot Idim. I was in Ekong house.

Mrklemo:
Obot Idim... Is it Lutheran High School?.
I was in Nau House.

There is just no perfect place on earth. However, if we had good leaders at the helm of government and life was easier (like it was in the 70's) I would move back home cos there is just no place like home.

Did he give his reasons that amala should be banned?

Blacks should step-up and redeem each other instead of adopting a "defeatist" mentality because of their skin color or expecting deliverance from another race. Where is African Union?

Have you factored in taxes, rent, bills, groceries . . . ? Yeah, one could be making $15 an hour which is $600 a week, but after taxes, take home pay maybe under $500 a week times 4 which is $2000. Deduct 401k investment, groceries, rent, phone bills . . . from it to get the remaining sum of money.

P/S Earning two million naira a month in Nigeria is way better than $15.00 an hour in the US

1stGenAmerican:
You’re right about that. The myth of working 2-3 jobs like a dog is just a lie people tell unless someone is in either country illegally.
Example: Amazon in the UK and US will hire just about anyone over age 18 who is in the country legally.

Here in the US, Amazon’s minimum wage is $15 per hour, even for people working from home and it’s $10-11.76 per hour in the UK.
A couple without any higher education in the US legally who are authorized to work can stay home and each work 40 hours a week for Amazon (overtime is optional and sometimes unlimited). So without working any overtime:

USA
$15/hr x 40 hours/week= $600 x 2= $1,200/ week
$1,200/week x 52 weeks/year= $62,400 annually in the household

UK
$10/hr x 40/wk= $400 x 2= $800/wk
$800/wk x 52 weeks/yr= $41,600 annually in the household

USA
Overtime = 1.5 of hourly salary
Amazon Overtime for a Minimum Wage Worker in the US is $22.50 per hour

UK
Amazon Overtime for the lowest paid worker is $15/hour

This fits the definition of having a cushy job, "24m per annum salary."

1stGenAmerican:
Abroad is not for everyone but asking respectfully, what is your description of a cushy job in Nigeria?

Since "there aren't always about the legal age but age a person is truly considered to have all the freedoms that go with being an adult," then, maybe, that is why they government want to try the 15 year old murderer as an adult (to attract stiffer punishment) instead of a juvenile.

Kobojunkie:
These aren't always about the legal age but age a person is truly considered to have all the freedoms that go with being an adult. For instance, the legal drinking age is still 21 in many states.

To each their own, but I wouldnt advise anybody to trade their cushy job in Nigeria for life abroad. A bird in a hand is worth two in the bush.

It varies from one country to another. In the US, an eighteen year old is legally an adult while in Nigeria, I think it is 21 years old. There have been calls for certain juveniles to be tried as adults.

Kobojunkie:
A 15-year-old is nowhere near being an adult. An adult would be someone about 22 years and older.

Read the story of James and Jennifer Crumbley who are being charged for the school shooting carried out by their son, Ethan. They are insisting they shouldn't be held accountable for his heinous actions.

But it did, his wives were at loggerheads and quarreled with his son, Kola, for misappropriating Abiola's wealth while neglecting to pay his siblings school fees. It got to a point that it was mandated all his (Abiola's) children should do a DNA test to ascertain if they were biologically his or not. That created a huge division and ruckus in the family that was played out in the media.

OYINBOGOJU:

Must all Igbo be held to ransom because of One person that contributed nothing but pain,anger and spill innocent blood.

Landed properties, Cars and Chieftaincy title remain priority for Ibo more than saving life.

What if M.K.O Abiola is an Ibo man his properties would have brought in war?

I don't think I have heard of this party until now.

The VP, Yemi Osinbajo, is married to the former Dolapo Soyode who is the granddaughter of Awolowo.

Has the inhumane conditions in Nigeria's prison deterred robbers from commiting crime in the country, has the fear of jungle justice (which is common in Nigeria) stopped criminals from engaging in their nefarious acts?

Blakpot:
If their jail system was as horrible as Nigeria's alot of these senseless crimes won't happen.

He might even get richer and famous after this.
Increased media attention, crime documentary producers, filmakers, might want his story.

As ridiculous as it sounds, it could be he did it for fame.

How can you tell who is a terrorist and who is not? Don't let looks deceive you.

OgunLaakaye:
He is mentally challenged and not a terrorist.

He is depressed and why he had to kill 6 and injure 20 with an assault rifle from a rooftop.

Fake news.

Very beautiful, thanks for sharing.

No regrets for me. I got my Masters over a decade ago and it was one of the happiest days in my life. Praises to God in Jesus Name Amen. I like what I did which was a media campaign for a non-profit organization for my dissertation.

He is a member of the family irrespective of his position in the family but trying to misappropriate his father's properties because he is the first son and calling the cops on his brother is completely wrong. That man should be grateful that he was adopted into the family and then humbly converge with his siblings on how to share their father's property. Some nerve!

ihedioramma:
Not a member but the first son of the man .

The adopted child is still a member of the family.

For someone with a low education like an NCE, OND and likes to come over, what are the likely jobs he/she can get?

Hillary Clinton won the Senate race shortly after leaving the White House for their successor, George Bush the 43rd President and son George Bush, the 41st President of the US. So politics as a family affair isnt restricted solely in Nigeria but is also entrenched in the US as well.

I have done that before when I visited the Calabar zoo and spent some time taunting a lion. I made faces at it,slipped my fingers inside the holes of the barricade.

Great guy, he should receive a befitting medal from the government.
