Bobloco:
Op, I understand your concerns and they are very valid but you have to understand that these south east politicians are career politicians who run to Abuja and pride themselves about being highly connected at the Nation seat of power

They know that a Peter Obi presidency will put a stop to that and ensure they become jobless just like the way he retired some of them in Anambra State to the extent one of them voiced out his frustration by accusing Peter Obi of being stingy because Peter Obi did not provide drinks when people pay him a visit at the government house. Peter Obi answered that the government house is not a beer parlour

The masses have come to see politicians for who they're. Peter is a gift and consolation for Nigerian youths. For the Southeast politicians, both Umahi and Chimaraoke is irrelevant in southeast presidency and for Ekweremadu he'll rot in jail

EbenAK:
It baffles me alot how some people think or believe that the Igbo's support for Peter Obi is based on tribalism, is not at all.
they do support him just because he has a track record and believe in the integrity of his sincerity and competence.
replace Tinubu with Osibanjo and Obi with Orjiuzo kalu or even,
Akinwunmi Adesina vs Okorocha and see is not a matter of tribalism.
if Tinubu is an Igbo man contesting for presidency with all this questionable character, age and health issues surrounding him believe me Igbos I know will be the first to reject him.
but in the south West reverse is the case, many of Yorubas are supporting Tinubu today just because he is a Yoruba man, forgetting that disadvantages and evil effects of bad government knows no tribe(go and check in the north) very eager to drink poison with the cup of tribalism without knowing or minding the consequences,
some times I do wonder if Nigeria is truly under spell,
infact, may GOD deliver this nation.

That's what they adopted in the last meeting of tinumboo urchins. But they're finding it difficult to push the narrative because tinumboo is incapacitated and corruption ladened. If he was young and vibrant like Star boy (osibanjo) it would have been a tough competition coupled with his Muslim-Muslim nonsense experiment, plus including corruption and drug trafficking. Tinumboo is very difficult to market even in our Yoruba land. We should vote emi lokan because is his turn? Nonsense.

Ttalk:
When Nwankwo Kanu wanted to establish his foundation to help heart related problems patients, Peter Obi was nowhere to be found, there is no single record of him supporting young athletes that have made Nigeria proud yet he claim to be for the youth, maybe he is referring to Mkurumiri addicted youth.

It is on record that Tinubu came up with a BEE Competition where the winner acted as a day governor and given scholarship to pursue his career as motivation to academic excellence, where is Obi's legacy for the youth?

We have the minutes of the last meeting of tinumboo urchins. We know your moves even before you make them and we'll be there in the next meeting. Ours is to reveal your agenda to the online community including nairaland

You wouldn't be here stressing yourself defending incompetence if tinumboo chose osibanjo or let go of his Muslim-Muslim terrorist presidency...

Your worries never start, u go still fight for public

Tinubu campaign organization will generate fake news with Obi's name and debunk it to favor tinubu. When the obidients will commence this part you guys are following, na still una d urchins go complain.

voiceoftruthNG:
Op pls let the man be, what is your interest? Something kept telling me your intentions are evil

You don't know the op. The guy is a low budget Reno with a touch of FFK. He is a Known political jobber. Just like atiku he moves from one political party to the other, also he only appears during electioneering seasons when duly paid by the highest bidder. And like tinubu he is among those that sold buhari to us despite the fact that Jonathan was his distant cousin in the niger delta. It is written "there exist honor amongst thieves" but for the op he has no honor. He's one of the reason everybody is chosing obi.

The op forgot that his post is littered all over nairaland. He also forgot that the youths are not voting to be paid, they are voting to stay alive and Peter Obi is the only hope in this our hopeless situation

Just like Reno and his gang of paid journalist, obi who was atiku's running mate all of a sudden has become an abomination thereby telling us that PDP is a party of thieves and APC is an evil party and a gathering of killers and drug barons

Ask him who he will vote for and why he is voting the person. Then you'll see why atiku is his principal...

I am happy to witness this day when money, tribalism, ethnicism, nepotism, religion and sectionalism died in Nigerian politics. The op is helpless, how has the might fallen

Auskyd:


All your mates making it big with tech aren't in school bro. They didn't even go to the university. You can as well drop out and start out on your own without degree since it's worthless or wetin you think?

You're wasting your time trying to educate "school na scam generation" they live in illusion of their own minds. Lecturers are even trying. Get a PhD, get good academic papers (well indexed with excellent/good/fair impact factor or citescore) and start processing your visa to leave their country for a sure postdoc scholarship. In Europe/America you'll be teaching the children of their political elites with a very good pay and spend much of your time in the lab doing research. Lecturers should focus on themselves and allow those ones to perish in their hate fuelled by ignorance. I always pity lecturers who give all for their students. Most of them end up being subject of caricature and mockery among same students they invested in. To me I always advise them to focus on themselves finish your doctorate, get the certificate and start applying for a postdoc. It's very much easier than they think...

Stay blessed

Queensee:



Auskyd and his fellow Buffon's will not see this one.

Most of those professors barely do any work. They shift majority of the workloads to their assistant lecturers while they do go about gossiping in the faculty

I think you should be discussing sex and more sex in the romance section and not education

Questions
1) Who is a professor?
2) What are the prerequisites for being a professor?
3) What's the role of a professor?

You shouldn't be here in education section. It take intelligence to understand some life/academic phenomenon/mode of operation.

word of inspiration: Albert Einstein wasn't such a bright student right from his secondary education to his undergraduate and Postgraduate years (he was so poor academically that he didn't pass a language class) even his supervisors didn't care to give him a reference letter for a job placement. Einstein worked hard enough to attain academic relevance. He didn't go ahead hating his teachers/lecturers. You also can be like Einstein in your chosen field of endeavor

My point: Inferiority complex is the reason behind the hate for lecturers, Dr., nurses, lawyers, Engr etc. That professor you claim doesn't impact knowledge and doesn't know anything have students scattered all over the world that are doing exceedingly well. Where were you when others were gaining from his knowledge base. May be you were fantasizing sex in class? I have four students studying med surge, one med rehab, two studying engineering and these are the few I can recall. I still have students like you who got pregnant and dropped out of school, another that was obsessed with a guy that is yet to gain admission into any tertiary Institution (the guy have destroyed what's left of her life). May be by tomorrow she will start hating on Dr, Engr, physiotherapist etc whereas she was the cause of her own woos.

My advise: Go talk sex in romance section, they need your contribution more.

Nazgul:

Haven't you noticed that students are closer to their secondary school teachers than their university lectures upon graduation.

My secondary school old students association has a Facebook page of which I'm a member of, at the end of the year we usually hangout at designated locations, celebrate life and raise contributions for some of our teachers who are in need.

No one does that for university lectures because most of them are sadist, wicked, vengeful...etc. Also, most Nigerian lectures lack the ability to impact knowledge on their students. They teach with anger frustration, some are so lazy to keep up lecturing appointments with students that they just hand over course material to the course rep to photocopy for the students.

If you claim to be a parent, you must see every child you mentor in class as your child, and do everything within you ability to ensure that they get the best from you. That's what every good parents does. Unfortunately our lectures do the exact opposite.

You demand maximum benefits with minimal pay. Buhari et al. had teachers both in secondary and primary school what have become of those teachers now. I have taught in a secondary school, I will tell you your assertion isn't valid at all.

The term primary, secondary and tertiary education isn't the same. University is mostly for research and learning (learning through research) while secondary education is mainly for teaching and learning.

If you kill universities, you kill research too. That means we keep importing and depending on those who fund their universities

kingmsookwagh:
Of All their demands, non is directed towards the interest of the student. It is either on UTAS and payment of arrears.

Later they will resume and start carrying their shoulders up like it's their personal school.

I go kill that lecturer. Walahi!!

They're documents containing ASUU demands. Please get a copy read and study it. That's if you're not an APC apologist.

Anything but APC anybody but tinumboo

Hueyreckless0007:
Personally, I don’t really understand why people are backing ASUU.

ASUU are fighting for ASUU (their pockets) not for the Nigerian students.

During my undergraduate days, we witnessed series of strikes, the government settled them on several occasions but students still sat on bare floor just to attend lectures.

Greedy set of people.

And ASUU is to be blamed for you sitting on the floor. APC indeed is an evil gathering. When you pay someone his salary to APC urchins that's settlement, ASUU didn't work for the pay. APC think Nigerians are fools. You don't want to call out your incompetent government and tinumboo right? Shame

Shame!!!

Ninisun:



But school fees are remitted to FG and who told you parents can afford independent funding Universities . How many of your siblings attended private Universities?

Use you brain na.

The opinion of the person you quoted is a reflection of how bad our universities have gotten. In this age and time, parents and people don't know that funds generated by the universities are remitted directly into FG accounts. ASUU have nothing to do with university funds at all

okechuks22:
true difinition of Nigeria, one of the dead brain have spoken

Don't blame him, Nigerians don't value education and can't appreciate the benefits of a quality education. They even elected a known terrorist sympathizer as a president and about to elect same as a VP. People that are so in love with terrorist, acknowledge that western education is evil. To them school na scam but their political elites are sending their children abroad, even one of their presidential (Atikcul) aspirants was proud of his peoples backwardness

iLoveYouToo:
Nazgul I like your name; as a friend to some lecturers and some SSANU staff, I can boldly tell you that these men are fighting for themselves but using student’s welfare as their gambit. Na wash, it’s all about the money

APC and propaganda. Lies and more lies

adanny01:


You have not said 1 thing I will agree with you.

Tell me one agency of government that is working the way we expect? Does ASUU expect that govt will prioritize them over the entire responsibilities of the govt?

ASUU are teachers as well as those who teach in primary and secondary schools. The demands by ASUU in comparison to all other civil servants that depend on government is simply outrageous. If every civil service union behaves like ASUU, govt will never be able to solve the issues with the current state of the economy.

Besides, in saner climes, government does not foot every bill of tertiary institutions. ASUU shouldn't have the moral audacity to hold the tertiary system to ransom if they know that it's not a right for them to be treated above the reasonable means of the govt. Govt is simply doing it for the sake of the very students ASUU has no regard for. Govt funding of the tertiary institutions is a responsibility it has to provide education for citizens of Nigeria. ASUU successfully kidnapped that responsibility for ransom. It's a bad thing. No excuses.

APC indeed is an evil party. So, agencies of the government not working justifies ASUU (GL) earning less $150 and professor earning less than $320 per month. Inefficiency in government is the fault of ASUU and not the incompetent APC government. You guys sound stewpid each time you attempt to defend this administration.

In saner climes. Even APC supporters wants to talk about saner climes. Imagine!!!. Blaming ASUU for Buhariii overtly incompetence.

Keep it up Na your pikin go suffer am.

Enjoy bigotry

Blackfox:
must you work in abroad why don't you use your skill to develop your country

You're a funny person

I think if you're not an APC apologist you should have asked your president and tinubu and maybe atiku "must they receive treatment abroad, why don't they use the money and equip our hospitals"

Stay blessed

Ninisun:




You are the one Ogun will kill!

BabaO2:

Bros
These nonsense set of people called ASUU are dispensable. Foreign employed lecturers will be cheaper, more effective and useful at long run as they will not be profiled for bonus and hidden benefits as these present greedy ASUU being contract staff

Sounding like a typical APC apologist. You can't defend incompetence. You'll always sound off point doing that. You wan hire foreign lecturers with $410/month. Nigerian Lecturers are among the least paid in Africa. Who'll agree to come and slave for your country with all the insecurities everywhere. APC and their urchins, see want poor education have made you do in a public space

Neoteny:
The same lecturers that emotionally, academically, psychologically, financially, and sexually abuse you are the ones you think will fight for you, to the extent of losing their salaries for months?

APC and politics of divide and conquer. Incompetence

Hueyreckless0007:


I don’t think so.
If u’re a parent, sponsoring your child to a Nigerian University, will you be happy seeing this type of news?

It’s soo annoying because at the end of the day, when it’s all said and done, Nigerian students get to bear the brute.

The children of this same Lecturers will be graduating from private Uni’s, while Ure sitting at home because a certain ASUU chairman has said 2 years is not too much to sacrifice

If only ASUU had embarked on this strike long time ago once and for all, then maybe we won't be here today.

During my years in the university I had same thinking pattern with you. ASUU need to stand their ground once and for all and get a long lasting solution. The lectures can always scheduled academic activities to accommodate students. I am a beneficiary of the corona virus strike

It will pain you more if after so many years your children also embarked on strike too.

Solidarity for ever

Stay blessed

dchamp234:

So is the political system, maybe you don't really know what assu is fighting for, find out then come back and quote me, I'm waiting. It's because their children are schooling overseas that's why it looks like a joke to them, then you'll see youths and students who will use 7 years for a four years course still vote for the same people who have no plans for the country except for their selfish reasons just like you said. No wonder buhari called them lazy youths.

The irony of this struggle is that the children of the oppressed are the one fighting for the government, more like a slave in love with his chains

If ASUU perish we all perish. Me I can't afford private university, so I am 100% on their side. I have taught in a secondary school, I have supervised and monitored schools in my area under the state government. If anyone tells you that the private primary/secondary schools are better than the government schools they lie. Government schools have the greatest bright minds that are not paid salaries that correlate with the services they render.

The death of public primary and secondary schools was because they weren't paid right. So, if you think paying a secondary/primary school teacher peanut is the best, then be rest assured that your children will end up in his/her farm or become a nanny and a house help during school hours while she sends her own children to private schools after all teachers can always spare time to teach their own children at home.

Public primary/secondary schools are a mess because the government decided to pay them peanuts. Presently, when you call for a private school teaching position people run away from it, even POS attendants earn more than a private school teacher. You want teachers to produce excellent students using poor salaries

Stay blessed

dragunov:


Imagine. Thank God he called you out like I did much earlier. You just open your mouth waaaa! There is a solution better than yours but I will rather discuss with open minded intellectuals who see and think outside the box. I won't waste my time with you or anyone on this forum. Nonsense!

You think people call APC an evil party for nothing. You always look stupid trying to defend incompetence. That's how a bright mind like him can go

muykem:
Private schools are paying lecturers less with better output compared with public universities. ASUU is SCAM and greedy, they are known for strike from one government to another.

Private universities even pay lecturers higher, yet their students can't get enough knowledge than those in the public universities. #fact

Most Nigerians are uninformed or misinformed and the government is taking full advantage of that

Why is ASUU a scam?
What makes ASUU greedy?

I hope you're not among the beneficiary of political elites or APC apologist

In my local clinic, nurses recruitment is seconded with a plea for the not to leave Nigeria, my HOD's daughters who are medical doctors have left the country. Presently, I am processing mine.

Ask questions if you don't understand unless you're here to exonerate the corrupt/incompetent government

Stay blessed

seunmsg:
Nobody is fighting for anybody in this country. Everyone is fighting for his or her interest. ASUU will always be a problem irrespective of who is president or which party is in office.

There are only two solutions to the ASUU problem:
1. FG should completely stop funding university education. Parents should be made to pay what is commensurate for the university education they want for their kids.

2. Government should scrap National ASUU completely. Each university should have an independent union to address local issues peculiar only to the university. Even if it’s going to take prolong strike and mass sacking to achieve this, it is worth the trouble.

There is no easy solution to the ASUU problem. FG need to make a tough, painful and firm decision on the union. Pandering to the union every time by signing crazy agreements that can’t be implemented has never worked and will never worked. It’s better to disrupt the system once and for all.

And you said you're campaigning for who again? Lord have mercy.

Please people should come and see ooo. If this is the best of APC then we are doomed already.

So, APC is fighting for APC and Tinubu is fighting for himself alone and not Nigerians. Nigerians come and see ooo

If you can't afford a private university, ASUU is fighting for you.

If you're a hater of covenant, Madonna, landmark, KDUM, Tansian and other high fee universities then ASUU is fighting for you.

If you still want your children to benefit from good academics then ASUU is fighting for you.

If you still want your certificate to be valid and used to process your documents to Japa out of this country then ASUU is fighting for you (Remember Abia state polytechnic).

If you want to see Nigeria progress then ASUU is fighting for you.

The university is the last of our public school system left to be conquered by the political elites. They came for the primary schools we applauded them, after all primary education doesn't matter, private primary schools can do the job, then they came for the secondary education, we still left them to destroy it, the effect is examination malpractice. Lastly, they are targeting the peak of our education and people are blaming the defenders and not the offenders. If the government destroys our public universities then education will only be limited to the elites and those who intend to leave naija using their certificates will be stock cos your certificate won't be acceptable in any country.

Confucius said "when workers are paid well they're motivated to work well"

How much do you pay primary school teachers, how much do you pay secondary school teachers. You pay a teacher #10k in private school and you expect him to do wonders.

Those backing the government don't know that they are promoting illiteracy and backwardness. Most countries don't value our certificates. I wonder want becomes of you after studying medicine, nursings, engineering, physics, chemistry etc and you are told that your certificate is not recognize abroad then you'll understand what you've opted to defend. What of those doing PhD and MSc just to finish and be informed that you can't go beyond Nigeria with your PG certificate. God forbid

If ASUU perish we all perish

Stay blessed

Oyigboupdatee et al. wants to reduce Southwest votes

That's what happens when you are loved by the youths. Hunger is no respecter of tribe nor religion. Peter has come to stay and certainly a win we the youths shall give him

When Nigerian youths call, Peter Obi answers

igbotormentor:
Are saying you are Yoruba? that means something is wrong somewhere, Igbo are trying to rubbish your strongest political leader but all you see is beyond your nose? common if Tinubu is successful rubbished, Yoruba will amount to nothing in Nigeria, we will be marginalised, no significant political or governmental agencies will be allotted to Yorubas, we will suffer in the hands of Igbos that call Lagos no man's land. if you are truly Yoruba you should have a brain to reason with

Tinubu was never my leader neither was he a role model. Osibanjo was our greatest asset to change this country but what did we get in return "it's my turn". Not only did he disrespect credibility by making mockery of Star boy he went ahead to mock christians by picking a Muslim. Disrespecting the entire Yoruba people of over 65% christians.

* Lagos existed before tinubu and will also exist after he's gone, tinubu isn't from Lagos self.

* No matter whatever you say about Igbos calling Lagos a no man's land, everyone knows that our people are the Lagos landlords. The Igbos can not journey from the far east to lay claims to Lagos. The distance is just too far. We should rather worry about our neighbors up north, Yoruba and Igbos don't share a common boundary and have never had land dispute since Nigeria inception

* Everyone hates incompetence

* Please quit tribal politics it only benefits the political elite unless you have something to profit from it

* I respect tinubu as an elder but certainly he is not worth being our president

Anything but APC, anybody but tinubu

matrixmuzi:


U are just a stupid ass. Igbos will for ever be ahead of u. Nobody talks about u if u are nobody. Igbos are the greatest and u must talk about them always or u will perish.

He is a tinumboo supporter. They're presently attempting tribal politics, just that they're mostly low/slow on the IQ levels. Just ignore him.

No need to abuse him. Just allow your silence to drown him.

Anything but APC, anybody but tinumboo

Stay blessed

igbotormentor:
The hate for Yorubas by Igbos is what they are reaping,
they hated Awolowo peddling lies against him, they hate Osinbajo calling him unprinted names, they hate adewunmi adeshina calling him corrupt when USA was investigating him now it is Tinubu because he is contesting for president , Igbos are planting thorns and they want to reap rose, that will never be possible.

You are the Yoruba hater. You want our people to vote in incompetence and a Boko Haram apologist/sympathizer. Com'on Yoruba are a people of class, go and tell tinumboo that. We are sophisticated, we know what's best for us and tinumboo doesn't represent that. Endorse osibanjo, he said no, now you went ahead to mock christians by picking a Muslim. Allow tinumboo to pay for his wrong decisions abeg.

Incompetence knows no tribe

Anything but APC, anybody but tinubu

Only tinumboo supporters hate Igbos. Christians must vote to stay alive. Tinumboo insulted us all by refusing to endorse osibanjo and to add salt to injury he went ahead to mock christians by chosing a northern Muslim despite the outcry of christians.

Anything but APC. Anybody but tinumboo
