@pavore9: Any idea on how to write a proposal for d creche? Cuz I need to meet wit someone who asked for it n am at loss. Thank u in anticipation.

l don't know about that but l do know there are Education consultants out there who can professionally package something for you out there. Please do not patronize people who couple up proposals from what they pick online but those who consults for already existing crèches!

Do we need it to pass WAEC?

tonytony208:
Hmmm. Me I do article writing jeje . being doing it since 2011

lt is good to focus where you have your strength. l personally love working on anything database as it also have reseller value. l did a database of about 20,000 business enterprises within a certain business niche in Nigeria for my brother which comprises business name, physical address, phone numbers and email addresses, he uses the database to sell what he is producing. l know people who will comfortably pay me N50k for that database but l no fit spoil my brother's business!

mubzay:
Thank you so much. Its appreciated. I found the information useful to me. God bless you abundantly.

Amen.

Hmm.....

The quality of Education in Nigeria has truly gone down!

Phillipines sounds OK, I just dislike those South Asians such as Bangladesh Pakistan Indian Omg. They've taken over the whole site and even look down on Africans like us yet we are more intelligent and educated. Well well you're lucky you don't have to do articles they can be stressful. Stopped those long time ago too.

Those Freelancer fees are not a joke ooo but what can we do, they help us find work unlike this our Naija of a country

They feel they are superior but better English dem no fit speak wetin person go understand! Yeah, freelancer's fees are crazy but like you said they help many earn an income. At least with the $105.13 l got it has covered my Cable TV subscription and electricity bill for the next 12 months!

Aida13:
Ugh at the risk of being racist I so detest those guys. If I just see an invite to bid from anyone from those Asian countries I will just vex lol. I can never ever bid on their projects EVERRR. Its good you dumped the project. Everyone knows their rep now so it would not look too bad that you have one or two abandoned projects.

Just avoid them in future and never do those off site interactions thru email unless you are close to the client. Do everything thru Freelancer and make sure the 100% milestone has been paid even before pressing that ACCEPT PROJECT button.

But l will make an exception of the Philippines as the guy l did a data mining job for 4000 Philippine Peso ($90) after freelancer had collected their cut of 500 Philippine Peso. He had paid 100% upfront even without asking for milestone. The guy was so nice as he loved the pace and quality of work that he gave me a bonus of 1000 Philippine Peso. na im freelancer bounced on top of it and deducted 100 Philippine Peso as their own cut. and forwarded me $109.13 as my total pay!

Though l am not a full time freelancer but when l want to work, l go for data mining/webscraping as the pay is bulk as against article writing!

Make somebody try am for Nigeria!

Una try!

Thanks a lot for this FREE education (insight) that you have given me to confirm some of my intuition.

I would like to be proven wrong but I am almost certain that Mohammed has not given back (in the form of scholarships to indigent students like he WAS-and more) to the Maryland school where he was offered the opportunity to break through in life. Would you know?

This is the part that is missing with us black people and why we continue to lag behind other races who understand that each person is placed within the context of his background and reference group irrespective of his individual success. Just like the yoruba narrative of the vegetable seller who protested that her vegetable is not from the refuse dump DESPITE being very fresh looking, even without anyone alleging that they are.

The interpretation scenario got me laughing too
Cheers, man!

l don't really know if Mohammed is giving back to his people but l do know that most don't. l have a cousin who is a Catholic Priest based in Austria and over the years whenever he is visiting home he came with Austrian friends who wanted to have a feel of the village life and he always come down with lots of goodies which included free medical check-ups and surgeries by his Austrian friends.

It evolved into building of a Secondary school which is fee paying but affordable but scholarship is being given to brilliant kids from indigent homes and the beneficiaries of the scholarships are told to also train one person in that school in return when they become successful in life.

My cousin Priest always say if you want to develop a community, educate them as it would refine their ways of reasoning but the sad reality is most of us are self-centred, failing to find validity in being a light to others, some would prefer buying a N20m Jeep and post it on social media while the roof of the primary school they attended need only N200,000 to repair so that the pupils there can learn in a better environment!

Thanks. Feed us with your details through our email, then we direct you to our nearest office. Royalmorn@gmail.com/ 09024779142

Is the training done in your office(s) or farm? l want a farm visit before any commitment as l need to evaluate your output level that is on ground.

She really had no say in her own marriage. She was the victim. Good thing that she's standing up for other victims. That's applaudable.

She was even just 2 months shy of 19yrs when she got married.

It would be interesting to find out from your brother whether his classmate (Mohammed) was not on scholarship of some kind from the Catholic nuns.
More interesting would be, what/how did he turn out to be today with the education he received.

Mohammed owns a travelling agency in Abuja.

Yes the Sisters did waiver some fees because it wasn't easy seeing someone from that part of the country being so keen on seeing his son get the best of education despite his low financial status and for one who never had formal education.

What makes me laugh as l type this is l can remember my brother telling us of an incident that involved Mohammed when they were in primary 4, Mohammed was told to invite his father to the school by their class teacher because of an issue concerning his son and being that Mohammed's father do not understand English, Mohammed was the one translating from English to Hausa. It was during their break time that Mohammed told my brother and others that their Ghanian classteacher said something and he was translating something else to his father because if he given the correct translation, punishment awaits him at home!

We should not.
The elites see it narrowly as a tool for retaining power over their people without taking into account that they are also seen as part of their RETARDED people by others outside their group

However the solution is NOT legislation per se.
No.
It is education (formal & DEBATES/exchange of ideas openly & liberally) that opens the mind of people to new possibilities and the people will drive the change in law & comportment.

The experience of Europe was no different.

Question is- what role can we (as individuals) play in making that happen

I share your line of thought regarding education over legislation. l remember while growing up in Lagos, my younger brother while in primary school had a classmate who is from Sokoto. The school, Maryland Convent Private School, Maryland is run by Reverend Sisters and one thing so exceptional about this classmate of his is that his father was then a Mai-guard in Mende and his mother hawked Kunu around Mende, Anthony and the Northerners' enclave near Ojota new garage.

How his classmate's parents managed and remain convinced all through the eight years he spent there to pay his school fees was baffling when there were alternatives in form of 3 public primary schools within the Maryland complex.

His classmate (Mohammed) finished from the school very confident with his tenses like every of his classmate and exposed. Today, someone like Mohammed though still observing his faith can not give his daughter out in Marriage at 14.

Education is very key in addressing the situation. When parents become conscious that their daughters can become nurses, doctors as it applies their society is more comfortable with female medical personnel attending to their female folks.

Is the Son responsible? Wearing faze cap backward before his father and guests.

U be traditional African!

Money speaking........

lt is even better as he has been told to give up his third term ambition but he stubbornly refused despite the deaths in the last few days! What has he achieved for his people? NOTHING. Burundi remains a very poor country!

How did you prepare the mixture? Procedure please..

Just get a glass of warm water, squeeze 2 small sized lemon into it, chop a clove of fresh garlic and cut a small size of ginger. All mixed together in the glass of warm water and as you drink it, you have to chew the garlic and ginger in it. l must warn you when chewing it your eyes will see double as it taste pepperish! You can use powdered ginger and garlic instead of fresh ones but l prefer fresh ones. Take the mixture first thing in the mornings and last thing at night. lt also helps in bowels movement.

IF it is any consolation, please note that Christianity in Europe was not much different until some 600/500 years ago.

Even at that. Why do the today's Northern's elite not see it as an obligation to gradually steer their people away from that path? ls the recycling of poverty and VVF not enough reason to do away with child marriage or should we wait for some hundreds of years?

anonimi:
Don't worry, I did but I believe something must have been established finally as the minimum age or the Bill was thrown out completely?

Moreover, it is also an opportunity to show further the differences between the VALUES of the south & north hence the COMPLICATIONS of having a national IDENTITY and sense of belonging to one nation.
Cheers!

Personally, l often wonder why Northern elites who insists on the status quo don't give out their daughters in marriage at such tender age, go through the profiles of their daughters when getting married they are already graduates. Have you read anywhere the Paedophile called Senator Yerima giving out his 14 year old daughter out in marriage?

We can't have a national identity with these retrogressive minds in the mix, who are very comfortable with the cycle of backwardness, keep up popping out children that will become rich fishing pond for the likes of Boko Haram. l sometimes wonder how a religion can stagnate one's mind!

The man will never leave empty-handed!

My question is what does the law of our country, Nigeria say and NOT what is done by some people in one part of the country.

l hope you followed it when it was a raging issue at the Senate and the opposition of it by Northern lawmakers.
