Family / Re: Do You Think Intertribal Marriage Should Be Encouraged? by NigerianScholar: 9:10pm On Aug 24, 2017 |
OrdercityWeb Thus is a very nice topic to discuss but I think you are mixing up intertribal and interracial marriage. But all the same. Marying from the same culture is closer to inbreeding than marrying from a different culture. Because there is a lower option for selection in the gene pool. The only exception to not marrying from another tribe is if you have conflicting views on something major. But this is very rare Most of everything you said rested on the point that 'cultural identity has to be preseved'. But whether there is intertribal marriage or not. This cultural identity would s vanish. How many yoruba people still believe in oduduwa, how many yoruba people prostrate or kneek down to greet their parents today. I dont know the origin of jollof rice. But its enjoyed all around the country same for suya/kilishi/boli. You said south east asians dont marry out of their culture this is very false. Many of them that migrate to other countries like usa have interracial kids You also tried to support your claim with the bible. The reason God prevented marriage with another tribe is because they were viewed as heathens. That was a generalisation that wont work today via the merging of tribes. The only main issue I can see is with the kids having identity issues. But this isnt that big of a deal You cant prevent inter-tribal marriage. The whole africaryan (black nd white mix from us) has been around for a while. And as more tribes mix. There wouldnt be any pure-blood. Everybody would be mixed. Culture isnt something parents teach. Its something you get from your environment. A yoruba couple living in igbo land will have to have igbo influences in their yoruba culture...... I can see people rent being mature with their discussions. They go to insults as a form of defense. I wont do that |

Education / Re: 5 Useful Mobile Apps For Students by NigerianScholar: 7:58pm On Jul 27, 2017 |
Instead of copying and pasting. You should have customised the post for a nigerian student 1. We dont have enough money for multiple devices or cloud storage. Advice investing in a usb drive instead 2. Good app. But it would have been better if its popular. But it isnt. A simple google search can help you. But tbh. Reading online books wont help a nigerian student seeking to pass. Everything needed is in the handouts or whatever material the lecturer gives. Ill recommend a picture to pdf converter 3. This is good for people without internet. That is if it doesnt require it. But a simple google search is better. Multiple sources. From regular people and dictionaries. This will help the student understand better by combining knowlege 4. I personally think using a calculator on a phone is a bad idea. With whatsapp/nairaland calling on my name. Just invest in an original casio calc 5. See 1 6. Not relevant. Handouts are still better. It might be a good time-filler if you have a lot of free time I am just doing some nit picking JARUSHUB: |

Education / Re: Can I Be Admitted With This Kind Of Result For Computer Science? by NigerianScholar: 2:32pm On Jul 20, 2017 |
Slurity: Everything i said is true friend, you cant sugarcoat it...the logic of "you can be anything you want to be if you really want it" is true. But you need effort, knowledge/skills. Pick out every point i made 1. Computer science is a very hard course (I know that because i am studying it as well) 2. If that result was an accurate description of his abilities he cant be a computer science student. Getting an E in physics. Its just not possible 3. I didnt say anything contrary to the bolded above. I simply adviced him to go back and re-learn. Or take the practical route 4. Even if he takes the practical route,he still needs the kmowledge of every subject above. Especially the english that he failed...The hustle for money is very competitive now and being sub-par with your oponents wont allow you compete Please tell me which one of the above is wrong with reasons. N.B- we re just discussing...you can actually prove me wrong |
Education / Re: Can I Be Admitted With This Kind Of Result For Computer Science? by NigerianScholar: 11:34am On Jul 20, 2017 |
chichijas: This is not a matter of if you can be admitted. Its a matter of if you can be a cs student. You can get admitted only to drop out because you dont know anything If this is you at your best and theres no bad luck or whatsoever. You cant be a computer science student with this result. Its just too poor c maths. E physics. You didnt even have any b. Computer science is a very hard course. And its not like that ict/computer studies they teach in secondary school. My advice. Work harder. Attend ss1/2 again if you have to. You need knowledge not just the grades. Or work on entrepreneurship learn html and css,java etc |

Family / Re: How Should Parents Handle A Kid That Watches Pornography? by NigerianScholar: 10:01pm On Jul 16, 2017 |
jejemanito: Let me give you a logical approach to this Forget beating him or taking his phone away by force or anything like that. It wont work. The child will be more creative in technology than you. Saying that we should help you because you caught your cousin with porn is not what you should be asking. You need to understand many things before you can know how to help him. Is it his first time, how often does he watch it, is he addicted to the porn or self service. Many many questions. Just talk to him and try to understand. No matter how awkward it may be and be as fast as possible. Because the more he watches. The more he gets addicted Let me just give points to make this shorter. 1. You may have to take away his phone. with his consent he may be trying to stop. You never can know 2. Never let him be alone. You may have to spoil him. Take him out a lot. Let him do activites that will wear hin out. Eg sports. Get him a ps3 or sth. Never let him have nothing to do 3. Assuming hes addicted to self service. Dont tell him all that BS that masturbation will give you erectile dysfunction or diseases. 4. Introduce him to PDA to reduce his sexual urges. But make sure he knows that hes meant to keep it in his pants. This isnt a 100% though. He may be too young but he has to start somewhere 5. Observe him properly. Never allow him stay too long in the toilet/bathroom. Be inconspicuous with your intentions. Pretend as if you want to use it as well 6. Let him sleep in the same room with you 7. Steal his charger so you have more control over his phone 8. And for the love of God. Dont let him go to any hostel. Let him be going to school from home 9. Tell his parents the truth...if you are positive they will over react and make things worse. Just tell them a lie that he told you he has emotional problems or something. Or you noticed he hasnt been sleeping well. Just tell them something that will make em observe him well. Make sure he knows about this so the lie wont spoil 10. Put the idea that "he is ashamed of what he is doing and he doesnt want anyone to find out" in his head by threathening to tell his parents or someone that hes scared of. (Do this before 9) I still think you should give us more info after talking to the boy. I am a teenager and i have seen many cases. I am just happy i never had the mind to watch 3 Likes |

https://ng.indeed.com/m/jobs?q=Computer+Engineer&l=Lagos+State There re many jobs out there for computer engineers. As long as you have practical skills and the papers. Youll surely get a job. Or start something for yourself. Like i said. Many boys in my school start making significant money from 300l. Fixing laptops etc Andela employs many young comp tech/engineering students etc Some companies in nigeria have started manufacturing android phones. A guy in my school showed me the blue prints of a phone and tab he was designing for the company Get a comptia hardware certification with new horizons nigeria. And theyll hook you up Did you study computer engineering or another kind? Do you have practical skills as well? kdon0000: |
Education / Re: I Need To Increase My Cgpa By 1.7 Points Before I Graduate. (advice Needed) by NigerianScholar: 7:32pm On Jul 11, 2017 |
I get The sacrifice part. But it is relative. Two people with the same gpa wouldnr have put in the same effort(sacrifice) I think i need serious help. Anytime i lock my phone/laptop away thinking ill read. My mind will just go back to them and ill go and carry them wherever they were left. Also theres suspense in most films i watch so i cant help but go back. I cant do with my phone as well. Since my class has a whatapp group and i wont like to miss any serious update. Like assignments,rescheduled classes,tutorials etc Before i got my phone after my waec. I was scared of failing. That made me determined to read. Even when i read the subject that was most interesting to me. Nothing entered my head. After sometime i just gave up and stopped reading. I had 4 a's 5 b's. No expo. But this doesnt work in the university as lecturers spend less time talking. So my listening in class to pass doesnt work now. Maybe its just how my brain is or i need to change my reading method (i have tried every single one i could think of....no effect) kdon0000: |
