Change is the most constant thing. So let's be optimistic that this radical move will birth the kind of change we all are looking for in Delta state.

My first kiss was the talk of the town for days cos it really made me grow feathers.
However, my best kiss ever was one i got during my NYSC days.
It wasn't from a fellow corp member, instead it was one of the locals out there in Bagudo LGA where i served.
I can't ever forget it.
Talk about getting something where you least expect it.
These days, i guess our busy lifestyles has removed the innocence from our ability to show passion.

I think the Nigerian fashion industry is gradually coming of age. My candid advise is that you can start small and grow up depending on the patronage you are receiving. If all goes well, you may even reject white collar jobs that may come your way. An office colleague of mine was combining the two initially but had to drop her white collar job to concentrate fully on designing. Cheers as you decide on which course to follow.

Abeg! Lager and peppersoup is the most selling thing today.
Trust me on this one. And you can make more depending on how you package the service environment. As much as 300% turnover on a bottle of lager to same on a plate of nicely made peppersoup.

funny , but sadly true

,,,,,, in the Music industry its easy for a nigerian singer to collabo with any singer in the world because the music industry have moved leap and bounds to improve the quality of their music, but the film industry they stood still churning out rubbish on a daily basis (approx 6 to 7 movies a day)

@poster, Will you take that back! I guess for the fact that two or three Nigerians sent you unprofessional resumes does mean the whole Nigerians would be in the same way. Sometimes, you know how to proofread or pinpoint errors from other people's resumes or writings doesn't mean you are not susceptible to writing errors when you writing by yourself.

If you think your company picks students by visual of neat resumes; that means you believe in quantity rather than quality. Remember, you have a lot of organizations that openly help students to write resumes on commission bases. Tell me, if you see a student who has done a lot of research and worked in both Big-Four and Fortune-500 companies and had his or her resume not well put together, but got all the information and experience on it. Would you pick well written resume without experience over that?

Then, remember we are not so much familiar with resume thing like that, except you are being exposed to business world. And most students in Nigeria can afford Microsoft Words software; I think there are lots of reasons not to criticize NAIJA STUDENTS.

I know more than 150 Nigerians in USA, all across southern, US, who could not even make third class in Nigeria; but once they got to states it's always 4.0/4.0 GPA. What causes that if you ask? The results are cumulative in America, meaning what you got in Mid-term is fixed and would never come out in final exam and most time finals might just be %10 of your total grades. In Nigeria, it's on opposite, the final exam is 70 or 75 of your semester grades. Surprisingly, most Nigerians never got less than 3.5/4.0 G.P.A in US Colleges and got above 1100/1600 in GRE or 500/800 in GMAT. Then, you see Ife or Unilag students barely had  2-1 or 2-2 scored above 1500/1600 in GRE and 750/800 in GMAT.


In America today, if you asked about Nigerians students' performance from anybody in USA, the response is always thumb-up. I know mostly about African Americans' organizations like (NABA), (NSBE), mostly Caucasians but blacks included too (SAE). They annually award scholarships to outstanding college students, I bet you, and Nigerians take 7 out of 10 just for all US students and 8 out of 10 for African students. That is why African American parents get mad sometimes, claiming they are the ones whose donate funds to these organization through charities and their kids barely benefit from it. Going by this point, NSBE's national convention this year had to separate African Americans from African's students and awarded the scholarships separately. You can ask anybody that went to the Las Vegas' convention last March.

Issues of correct dictions, Whites never stressed that your sentences must be always correct as far as you are communicating and making sense. I have heard a lot of white Americans making silly blunders in the public, both common people and celebrities. One program like that, they used to interview white folks on the streets, especially down south, they would tell you they can't speak good English; because they didn't go to school and nobody laughed at them.
Just like you see professional African Americans speaking Ebonics; “we was, they was, the things was, “ I bet you would laugh at them, Main while, they could speak fluently than you as far as American society is concerned. No matter how sound is your queens English, you need to start from the scratch when you get to America. Other people can testify to this.

Good points. I concur.

I think we also have discussion threads on this forum??

Emeshot should do us a favour by clearing his name in this mess.

Fhemmmy:
Cos she is a housewife doesnt make her a house help, the kids can still do dishes, the husband can still take care of the laundry, all he has to do is dump them in the machine and take them out, you can still wait for the hubby to come from work and yu cook together {really sexy - u can get lucky in da kitchen too}
Once again, i think you are mixing being a househelp with being a bum, and there is a big difference.

Good comment.

Cant wait for the online war to start, the anticipation so strong i can taste it on my fingers

Tayo-UK:
Just try and reboot it. I just came back from Nigeria and my iPhone wont browse on MTN until I rebooted it. But be ready to top up from time to time as it used up my credit in minutes.

Good luck

Phone browsing in Naija is so expensive.

But sincerely most young people want ready made partners. Nobody wants to suffer. The situation in the country has made love strive with finance. Everyone is seriously in love with a comfortable person and after the mariage of such individuals, wht happens becomes what they have to try and cope with. The trouble begins.
