Oloshi ni Moyes ati giggs o, why Giggs na, the guy is just playing cards with our game o, cleverly is 'playing save' too much, Young isn't progressive, he can only pass to ferdi and vidic, while Welbeck is a tool, especially with those chances missed. We need Nani, hernandez/anderson to change our game, Giggs and cleverly out!

coogar: @MUFCXI : De Gea; Jones, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Valencia, Cleverley, Carrick, Welbeck; Kagawa, Van Persie. #MUFC

moyes is a genius...
coogar: you are correct
moyes is a fool - playing giggs in this game makes no sense. that old fool should just retire already. what form has giggs shown to keep nani, anderson & kagawa out of the starting line-up?
grin grin grin grin

On a serious note, seems Giggs 'don' jazz Moyes too.

Although I have extended families that are financially okay, for reasons known to them, they have refused to help.
This caught my attention, a very young, vibrant and enterprising man like this has got no form of assistance from 'well to do' family members? Quite bad! If at all he was/is the unserious type, then there is justification undecided anyway, there is something they know/see that others don't.

Meanwhile,this is called 'entrepreneurship' tongue at least to make ends meet. Just that, he has got to step up o.

Lastly, can a degree holder do thishuh #just a question#

So, we just have no choice than to conclude that individuals are to be blamed. Quite understandable, but the questions are, those ready to learn, what will keep them motivated and moving? Is it the passion to come out with something new, or the need to survive, or to outwit others.......? Also, what is the place of those that have done it successfully? is it just for them to continue to look, talk, anlyse, simplify, proffer,.....? Too many questions, too many analysis/analysts, and too many un-resolved problems.

God help us!

ATMC: many atimes nairaland is as boring as...but esere made a difference today, i got two of my colleagues to read this and from d argument dt ensued afterwards i learnt something interesting...it wont be long bfor its effected...this thread is an expose i must say. maybe d op n others should consider starting a youth foundation...
God bless you! Esere said, we should endeavour to learn on our own since the system is bad, Sir AJ too agrees, although he is saying that the system is still cool, I am in support of both, and I am suggesting that we forget the bad system, and push for a change by contributing towards the success of these youths (the ready ones) cos they just need a pull, one among many nairalanders I respect is Jarus, he and some others sat down, and came up with an idea, very soon, I believe it will kick-off.
Those that have created their paths should endeavour to help others create theirs, since the system that ought to has failed, then rescuers should come in, most cannot create paths on their own, considering the level of poverty, discouragement, disappointment and what have we.

Sincerely, a foundation is a very cool one, at least to start with.

AjanleKoko: There's an unspoken collusion between teacher and student alike in Nigeria, to not 'go there'.
It's that simple. After all, that your mechanical engineering chappie might one day become a lecturer, or even a corporate manager, and will join the nationwide moan about 'bad system'.

Youths build home-made bombs everyday on the Gaza strip. I guess their universities do better 'practicals'? undecided
I know you will definitely find your way out of this sir(I sincerely like that), but to be frank here, youths that do such are not much, what will happen if there is a system that will make it happen more than the infinitesimals that we have? All am saying is this: for there to be a change, it should start with US, aside from the readiness of the teeming lads, what about a form of support? The established will make things happen, corruption will soon annihilate the effectiveness(little) of the system, so its better to leave the system and its mess, encourage the coming ones and support them, later-on, the system will catch up, it is a matter of time. If those lads are to do the thinking themselves, there will never be sustainability,they might eventually loose out, which can be much more disastrous. Only one in a million can go around situations on his/her own. Cest fini.

esere826: I think that once in a while, some individuals can succeed without the system helping them out
however for the numbers to be great, and for the individuals to owe some amount of loyalty to the system, the system needs to provide some intervention.

But systems in Nigeria are presently in states of coma with no hope for resuscitation in the immediate future
the system might even completely collapse after oil dries up
so it is left for individuals to push hard and past the systemic limitations

We need to learn how to learn on our own
Believe me, it will be a long and tiring ride, I think instead of 'learning how to learn on our own', it's better for those who have learnt a lot on their own and through the system to independently(without the system) teach others/us what they have learnt. It is high time we left the system let it be on its own, when the system sees the efforts and effects, it will adjust itself.

I will come up soon with strategies that should aid this.

esere826: Such kind of education is the type that the American system provides its citizens in entrepreneurship. It rewards adventurous individuals and provides a cushion for them when they fail and start over again.
I butress my point with that quoted. How can one be successful in entreprenuership without a nice system that brings in the wealth of experience of great entreprenuers? forget those 'one in a million entreprenuers' that made it without intervention. These skills are not just easy to self-develope, sincerely, it isn't easy!

AjanleKoko: The interesting thing here is the way we all talk about this practical.
Truth is, there is adequate provision for the practical in Nigeria. The question is, why are they not utilized?
Every school in Nigeria, even in the villages, have laboratories built in there. At least most of them. When you don't have enterprising teachers and eager students, you only get excuses.
I dissagree with you on this o, maybe you wanted to say that the presence of technical schools sparringly aids practicals, and that is at the secondary level of knowledge acquisition, at tertiary level, it is zero, check out technology schools (both federal and state), nothing near simple equipments are found there, when I was serving, I met with a mechanical engineering graduate that couldn't (don't know whether he can do that now) even recognise a bolt and a nut, quite pathetic because he even went to a top-tier federal technology university, he told me they did nothing as per practicals. (Am serious o).

Meanwhile, you asserted that it is the individual and not the schools, well, I want to say that it is both the individual and the system (leave schools), please check it out in this perspective: the readiness of individuals to self-develope themselves and the bad system, if you say the individual alone, there are limits, can an individual acquire those high technical skills all by himself without the support of the system?

esere826: My experience of this phenonmenon is that foreign organisations tend to engage learning institutions first before looking outside the box
It isn't strange to us all that this is impossible in Nigeria, it is when practicals are encouraged in our so-called learning centres, that the above will become possible. Check out your story, Bayo's suggestion made the project a success, alhough this was done outside Nigeria, if there were ways, then such would have been done before by these local learning centres (with the help of the govt considering the cost of the research).

True that self development will help, but it may not help/be effective in fields that require high skills and expertise, e.g Engineering.
