Please,how much can a person buy RedMI 8 now.
A new one directly from the pack?
I live in onitsha.
I'd really like to join the Xiaomi Clan.

Olamide114:
No store selling it around you ? Which state are you?

Guy i dey anambra state and i haven't found any store that sells RedMI phones.
Do you know any?

Agbegbaorogboye:
Are you serious?
Who are you for then?

Kingsley Moghalu!

I heard this dude made life hard for nikola tesla.

Hassanmaye:
Thank you sir I will go and learn programming

Lol

davillian:

He doesn't know after first degree he would have to work and pay for his master's .....
If he is not lucky to nail a good job the parent can still support him to the last bustop( masters) and after that the parent would chase him out like hen chase it's chicks to go fend for himself......
Right now people are applying for 100k job with masters .....
He should better think of skills...
I was in the uni and my friends with o level that learned pastry and cakes are already earning above 200k as pastry chefs and as I'm speaking thier salaries has doubled ......

I don't have strength again.
Let me point out a certain thing.
I see that everyone here fancies having a skill.That isn't so great.i believe a friend above mentioned something about skills and businesses being "over-saturated".Every body tries to do the same things.And there in an inexhaustible list of those things.
It's not gonna be good that a country with a huge population as ours has an economy that runs on "skills and infant businesses"
It won't take us anywhere.

Cos even mech Engin self no dey rain again!!! My ex GF got a first class in Petroleum Engineering!!! In 2016 served 2017 till now no better work!!!

Wise up bro!!! My biggest regret is going to school to study computer Engineering for 5yrs... If I had known I would have put in that 5yrs in Software Development at home!!! By Now my life for don dey stew!!! In the federal school I went , we were taught programing on the board!!

MODIFIED: my former course mates who made first class 2 of them are lecturing in my school and one is already married!!! I swear no mater wetin Govt work dey pay you you think you're enjoying maybe cos u dey get 120k per month na until when kidney failure hold you then you'll know that salary na nonsense them comparing it with the Crazy high cost of living...

Thanks a lot sir!
I love this and it pains me that the reality we see really isn't very hopeful.
I will strongly think about what you said.
But never will i drop My Education.

Chevrolet076:
so much pride in one post!!

How?
Please?

DollarBuddy:
Lol.... from this post, I can't tell that this poster is still in his late 10s or early 20s.

No worry, the Nigerian system go soon humble you.

Could you explain what you mean by this "Nigerian System"?

Chevrolet076:
when preparation meets opportunity, luck they say is what people see...

I don't need to engage you in any conversation.... let's see where we'll be 10 years to come

Thanks!
And Challenge Accepted!

lordally:
Hahahaha you're still in year one abi Lwkmd no worry I was just speaking the way you are now in 2010 when I entered uni... I wish you all the best but I have to be frank if you love yourself start making plan B...Cos Nigeria would do everything possible to kill that dream of yours...so no gree.. best of luck

Thanks!
But Nigeria can't kill my ambitions.
It's not strong enough to do so.

Chevrolet076:
infact, this Covid break taught me how to live life outside of academics.... I've been putting my hand into several fields, far from my degree... from agriculture, to fashion, to electronics, and so much more that I'll have loved to do.... and it doesn't mean when school resumes, I won't continue doing well by His grace.

the guy is just egoistically myopic... he'll soon learn

Lol.
We'll see,my friend.

"From agriculture to fashion to electronics..."
It doesn't look like you have any direction.
You just do what comes along.
That's not right.
I'm not sure if it's wrong,but i'm sure it's not right.

Yemmyteespeed007:
No other backup other than learning a skill, or running a business .
Education plus the right skill will go a long way.

Not just anyhow skill

Bless You!

Jimmy231:
What is the essence of that knowledge that can't b converted to skill I'm sure after your BSC you can't be better than a road side Mechanic 100percent

You're displaying the "shortsighted"ness i talked about.You think mechanical engineering is all about fixing and repairing "autovehicular " things.
I assure you it's not.
But i'm afraid i can't start telling you what Mech.E is all about and what it has to offer at the moment.
But trust me,it's more than what you think.

Timtellect:
This one never see anything for life yet...
Na this kind mentality I get when I just enter University 2011..
I graduated 2015... Till now no Job
As u grow older, ur reasoning will change... It's not all about education bro.

If my life should play out even with a 73% alignment with the plans i have in mind(God willing),then i don't think i'll be a job-seeker.

kingxsamz:
Lol, funny guy.
You're probably from a wealthy home and attend a private school. Life hasn't hit you, yet.
Or you've forgotten that this is Nigeria?

I'm not from a wealthy home.
I attended a notorious government school in onitsha.
And trust me,life has hit me quite hard.
The slogan "This is Nigeria" is meaningless to me.
And it should also be meaningless to everyone else should they all give it a deep thought through.

kumulus:
While acquiring a skill, you'd be getting educated. At the end of the day, depending on how fast things works out...you could be at the receiving end young man. Haven't you for a moment thought about the implications of fully developed AI technology??! It's far reaching effects!!

I foresee a future where man wouldn't have to work as we've known, robots and computers are taking over everything since machine learning came to fore. From design to development, AIs are perfecting the schemes. What numbers do you have that machines wouldn't finesse in split seconds??

Don't be the shortsighted one, knowledge can be very useless if it can't translate into skill. What good is a husband who knows how to kill a rat in the bedroom but can't kill one at that ungodly hour when it mattered??

I've met a professor of Mechanical Engineering from UI during my IT experience at a workshop in Ibadan who said although he knew all about the car he drove, he can't perform a simple general servicing of the said automobile.

Don't wait to see how far ahead they get!


-Lloyd

I guess he's a "Theoretical" professor of Mechanical Engineering.

And that ain't very awesome.

mosunmola63765:
Just go to any busy junction and be selling cooked noddles..dis govt no get plan for eduction.

It's quite clear from your comments that you haven't utilized the power of the internet.
One of my friends is already in his 2nd Semester,200lvl Mech.E scheme outline(that is the list of courses he'll do in 200lvl and the contents of each),while is school he is in my set(100lvl Mech.E).
And he is doing this while working at a fueling station(Making money and Getting far in his course).
He gets his study materials from the wealth of resources available on the Internet(No be only porn dem they use internet watch)

tommy589:
You must be a brilliant chap. And with this mind set you are going to be successful in life.
Nothing compares with a sound education though I have a limited one. But asking an undergraduate or a graduate to have vocational skill as backup plan is not it for me

Stick with skill acquisition,If you don't have what it takes to attend tertiary institutions in acquiring correct white man's education.

Don't waste money and time going at all.

Thank You Sir!
I will add you to my list of people i can't ever dissappoint.

Yo bro,i'll never neglect my education.
I will still get up to a Masters in Mech.E.
And a B.sc in Economics and maybe in Applied Mathematics as well.Though i'm still in 100lvl doing Mech.E.
My main plan and back-up plan all involves me getting an education so if you like be there and be doing "vocational skill" .we'll see how far that really gets you.
Anyone can learn a vocational skill and still be very educated.
People looking towards skill auquisition as a substitute for True Education are shortsighted.

Mekudi:
Disregard the Fake news circulating about the kidnapped students in Katsina, there is nothing of such, enemy of this country are the one trying to cause unrest .Buhari is working

You're right

Onlinesmart:
The question you should ask yourself and your fellow flat skull geng is: which of the 2 tribes go in droves to each other's land? Answer in one sentence only, I won't entertain unnecessary chest beating

Modified: I can register anytime I like. This forum belongs to Yoruba. If igbos are tired of being bashed here daily, pack ya load and give us space. Na by force? Y'all are the intruders here

You're quite delusional.
Igbos are people who are enterprising,industrious and very pesistent.
We don't particularly stay in one spot but we're always eager to branch out and see what we can do wherever we go.
Yorubas are quite slick and don't fancy exploring places so much.
Values are different.

Alexis11:
Tell your father to shut up.

Truth is bitter.

There is nothing like that.
You're just an ignorant ranter.
I know Nigeria's history quite well.
Particularly that of the '60's.

So don't go about blaming the Igbos for the dissolution of the regional system.
Blame Gowon and his conceited group of people.

Alexis11:
Ask your people. They ruled in the 60s and destroyed our regional system.

Will you fucking shut up?
The North(yakubu gowon) ruined the regional system!!!!
He was the one who turned Nigeria into an American-style federation by dissolving regions into states but yet gave those states very little political autonomy and very little control over their own resources.
Ironsi didn't even rule up to 8 month before that war criminal named Gowon usurped power and gained control of the State.

Doradorwa:
Hi.... I consider chess as a game of mind... For someone with no knowledge of chess what app can I download for it

Chess.com's app is available for download.You can play online against other chess players from around d world live!

tuzle:
I shouldn't lie, I haven't achieved anything, and I don't like how I have been stagnant. The only thing I can say I learnt is how to play chess.

Fellow chessman.
I'm also a chess enthusiast myself.
But my progress has been hampered by my lack of a good phone.
My lichess handle is ONE_KOBO.
Won't be active for a while though till i get myself a phone.
Then i'll face all Nigerian chessplayers.

Wat fone r u using?

Currently working at a fueling station.
Earning some cash.Saving up for a better future. 2021 gatz b good.
I Haven't gotten the resources i need to start learning skills just yet.
Although i really have the passion to be a math pro.When i get a new high-grade smartphone and more cash, i believe my proficiency in Mathematics and Chess will undergo tremendous improvement.
Skills i'm looking forward to learn may begin next year.

Was a 100lvl undergrad in Mech.E before all this strike and coronavirus thingz started.

And i must say,i'm really happy and glad we went on this long break.

And i secretly wish for school to resume febuary.

Has ASUU called off strike?
Yes or No?

I stand with ASUU!

Bomboiy:
Why una dey talk like this? So because of hustling I should forget my dreams and aspirations.


This is why ASUU and FG are playing with our future,we have been on strike for 8 months but NO hustling should be the most important thing. We should be quiet and allow ourselves to be ruined because of one yeye hustle. Which hustling is More important than your degree?

Bless you!
Someone that thinks like me!

Abatemtem:
Those of us that are passionate about school and education nko?

Guy ask him ooo.

mudiana:
I think u feel it's only tru school you can achieve something in life, that's not true. I have a master's but lemme shock u, I haven't used both my b.sc Nd m.sc to get a job. I learnt how to fix laptops in 3 months Nd steadily I grew from dere to selling laptops. I have a big business by God's grace now. School is good no doubt but don't let it limit your progress in life. You can achieve more without school, just look for what you are passionate about and go for it. soon it will become a money magnet for u.

Must money be the central topic for everything?
