Education › Re: Which University Is Best To Study Computer Science In Nigeria? by persius555(m): 5:49pm On Dec 16, 2018

Nigerian university will teach you the basic of general computing. Its a prerequisite if you are to go far in any computing field.

But you will have to get the necessary Brushup to get you going in your career. Every knowledge you acquire will be of relevance someday. Never be confined to the knowledge within the four walls of the university.
As a student of computer science with up to date knowledge, you will stand out among your peers who lack the rudimentary.

As for the university that will ground you well, I suggest covenant university if you can afford it

Politics › Re: North In Nigeria’s Workforce: Priority Determines Motivation by persius555(m): 6:05pm On Dec 15, 2018*

OP, We understand your point. The casing point of the north not been motivated to venture into unchartered academic territories as its regional peers all emanate from its unwillingness to adapt to changes because an average northerner sees education differently from how the southern peer sees it.

To compound this, the encroachment of the military presented an open opportunity for the northern elites to fill up the disparity or academic bridge between the north and the south. Most of the beneficiaries of government appointments got their confirmation not based on merit but through mere selection/appointment by military administrators. Like they say, " You value what you sweat for".

The north is too traditional to be able to quickly solve its immediate academic problem and this has always been a drawback when it comes to competing To to Toe with the south.

A good example is the nomination of chief justice of Nigeria. Between 1958 and 1987, southerners who had reached the very peak of the legal practice been SANs and the rest got to that office by educational excellence and prowess. But between 1987 to 2016, most of those who have held those positions are mostly northerners who have barely been confirmed as SANs. By lowering the bar, this has made the need for the northern folks to compete unnecessary. This has resulted in the fallout we are seeing today.

The north needs to compete on a level playing ground in order to achieve this feat. It can be done in due time.

One of the best ways to confirm a bank transaction is through your bank app. Never rely on SMS alert as it can be easily modified and made toblook like the text originated from the bank.

Never rely solely on the USSD interface as in extreme hack cases, they are not 100% foolproof. USSD relies on your telco that acts as third party.
Business men and merchants should develop an habit of relying on bank apps than SMS transactions.

A lot of CCTV installers are quacks and are limited in the knowledge of surveillance camera angles.
Many are not properly trained on angle placement. A security camera placed in the middle of a four by four room is the height of quackery. Imagine the camera lens directly ping to the floor. Didn't the owner of the shop notice this anomaly before the incident? Stop patronizing quacks.

Tell me one product which has vast and up to date support and development community that has emanated from china? The chinese have very low respect for privacy and intellectual property. Their products are agents of spywares for their government.

The upper hand the chinese have is their swiftness to adopting new technologies while others are pussy-footing. The foundation of most of their products are technology from elsewhere. All the same, the chinese have done well for themselves but they know their place.

That's a dumb CCTV camera. To up the stake, surveillance cameras now have upgraded features that allows alerts and screenshots to be sent to mobile phones at anytime of the day. This is pre-programmed to trigger at an instance of breach within a restricted time domain (10pm to 8am or as preferred)
The Internet technology aides this. As criminals become bolder, owners also need to upgrade. With a screenshot and alert sent to owners mobile phone, a quick call to the police or nearby security personnels would have thwarted this act.

Politics › Re: METELE ATTACK: Poor Orientation, Not Lack Of Weapons Was The Major Culprit by persius555(m): 8:12pm On Nov 25, 2018*

BlowBack:
Is Nigeria not signatory to the anti-mine article?

Mines also will not work as the Nigerian army does not require a string of permanent bases but rather the military must re-strategise from frontline trench warfare to blitz screen fast manoeuvres. This is easier said than done as communication and discipline as well training to fight in cohesive fashion will require a massive overhaul of the Nigerian Military manual.

Semi permanent remote bases like the one that came under attack just provide easy targets for BH who will just spy on them for weeks, picking their weakness and combat readiness from where they can launch an isolated and well cordinated strike.

If you have constant patrols in close contact to each other all over Borno, BH members will not know which to attack and if they dared to do so, an attack on one platoon will easily be repelled as support can be called in from every direction thereby entramping the enemy.
v

The treaty doesn't cover anti-vehicle mines, just anti personnel mines. This is one the military can explore. The mines can be tagged and gun marked from metres away from the base.
BHT relies heavily on these guns trucks. If they see their trucks being torn to pieces, this will slow down their advances and their shooting capabilities will be reduced to long distances.

PatrickOkunima:
They were shot inside their trenches, but are you 100% certain they're out of ammo?

Yes, I take FarahAideed comment to be very factual. My concern about this war is why the hierarchy has not deemed it necessary to plant mines around our critical bases. Boko Haram, a rag tag group used these tactics, which was why Sambisa Forest became a fortress of some sort for their carnage. The use of these mines slowed down movement of our troops advancement buying BHT valuable time to carry out ambush. If BH is deploying such why are we not, considering the fact that metele is a border town to the chadian force, and they had tactically withdrawn from these war, leaving our base exposed. A five kilometers mined field radius around that base would have seriously damaged numbers of approaching BHT AA mounted gun trucks.

It doesn't baffle me how BHT are able to encircle a base like that. They know the first line of defense are shallow dug trenches which can be defeated by high calibre gun power. I bet BH would not carry out attacks in the dead of dawn if they knew they base was fortified with mines as those AA trucks they rely so much on will end up in pieces.

Mines around our bases would deter Boko Haram. The army authority should look into it.

Engineer123:
How I wish I had time to explain to people what is happened in North East. The way military personnels talk or report situations is different from civilians. All what the soldiers said we're true. BH are using drone to spy the defensive location of Nigerian army and BH have more sophisticated arms and ammunition compare to Nigerian army. BH do advances with support weapon like general purpose machines gun, rocket propelled grenade, anti air craft and many other more. While Nigerian army are using outdated AK47 and less fire weapons.
Some time the MBT and APC do over heat and the efficiency of the tank is very low. If you watch BH advancing towards Nigerian defensive location, you will see hilux mounted with AA and other support weapon. Before a lieutenant colonel will lost his life in the battle front, know the the situation was critical. What the soldiers mean by arms and ammunitions were carted away by BH is that Ak47, magazines, RPG and 3 or more GPMG were carted away. Which is less in term of super power to BH. One anti aircraft bullet can or RPG can scatter a battalion. In summary, there are conspiracies in fighting BH. Is only the Armed Forces that understands the situation better. If Nigerian army in collaboration with airforce decided to wipe BH out, some people sources of money will stop. I forget to add this, some generals are sabotaging the efforts of soldiers in North East. Later sir

Watch how the Nigerian Army are ordered to take a defensive position other than offensive. Two weeks of intense air and landed offensive approach will deal a blow to this group.
A certain GEJ did it towards the electioneering campaigns in 2015 and after that they went back to status quo.

The conspiracy in this war is so glaring, even the blind sense it.
