A Professor of Employment Relations and Human Resource Management, Prof Chris Obisi, has decried the lack of funding for research in the nation’s higher institutions, calling on corporate organisations to assist.

Because they seek brand awareness not innovation

Nigeria was designed to keep people docile by your primal leaders. Know the game and break free from the illusion. Too dangerous to wake up in Nigeria. Evil is so entrenched. Evil pervades every fabric of it's society. Every institutions of government is weaponized against you. Even your religion and tribe is hacked against you.

What you gonna do?

We was made to believe that black peoples don’t innovate. Leave innovation to the white community.

All we do is party, have kids and kpai

Nigeria is typical definition of container economics. Nothing concern us with research, very few manufacturers. Most Nigerians deal on buying and selling 🤷🏿

But again,what’s life without proper bedmatics skills seff,I’m here to solve all your woes
Re: Nigerian Companies Fail To Fund Research But Actively Sponsor BBN - Don (video) by motymop:
And who told you Nigerian companies don’t fund research?

They do but only research that benefits their line of business. Even something like BBN was research driven before they put money into brand awareness. They looked at the data first before investing.

Do you really think companies just throw money around anywhere? No. Companies everywhere invest in research that gives them an advantage and keeps them ahead of competitors.

Nothing new here. Nigeria is not a serious country.

A country that felicitate with outsiders when there is a tragedy and ignores it's own.

A country that abandons it's hero's and rewards sports people with millions.

A country where runs girls make more money than hard working people.

A country where the president takes treatment abroad while neglecting our hospitals.

Prof Chris Obisi Needs to know that Nigerians need to be kept busy with entertainment.

Research does not distract people’s attention and that will keep making them discuss about the administration of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

Personally, I believe the show should be aired every quarter of the year. That will give room for the government to concentrate on development.

What innovation have the professors proposed? Lol. Even you give them money, they will misuse it all. It's their way na. People wey still dey use black/white boards to teach coding. grin

BBN organisers understand that branding is good, and they know how to use modern innovative ideas to convince sponsors. However, they call themselves experts in classrooms but cannot convince potential sponsors. They don't even see themselves as entrepreneurs, but only want to bully government and everyone. If they can make others support them, not me. Let them use tools BBN managers use to convince sponsors. That's what their counterparts in other nations do.

It still boils down to the Consumerism culture of the average black man.
They derive pleasure in consumption than production.
To them your research is tasking and finance consuming but bbnaija satisfy their mundane rotten senses and obscenity. So why will they invest in something that will be productive?
Re: Nigerian Companies Fail To Fund Research But Actively Sponsor BBN - Don (video) by Angelfrost(m):
So?!!

They actively invested (not funded) into what gave them massive returns.

Their returns on investment into BBNAIJA could only have happened because most Nigerians especially youths are mentally controlled and lust-filled degenerates who would rather watch tv shows, gossip endlessly on social media, and chase frivolities than focus on academically oriented ventures.


How else do you explain that Dstv has made Billions of Dollars from BBNAIJA and EPL viewership in the last decade than any othe educational show?!! lipsrsealed


There are no sentiments in business... You invest in and supply what's in demand.

Most Nigerians have a shockingly high demand for mind-numbing, trivial and senselessly mundane things.

This is interesting but truth is not all companies involved with BB9ja are into science.

However it would make sense to see the same enthusiasm for BB9ja channelled to science and technology.

Is it companies that sponsor research? I lik3 BBN

.... it's like that because all of their general managers are all nincompoops only good at showing off senseless authorities, bullying the junior staffs and workers, putting round pegs into the square holes, diverting funds that were meant for something meaningful for their personal useless flamboyant lifestyle grin grin grin

This also amazes me, why will companies bring out money to sponsor porn (blue movies) but difficult to sponsor research?

That's called misplaced priority right?

The rich people also support themselves making it hard for development to occur. They can't be blamed because economically Nigeria is in reverse mode

Because stupid and nonsensical things is what sells and attracts attention in the present day nigeria.a country even here an AGBERO or a THUG can become a governor or president

undecided

The Nigerian society, directly or indirectly promotes waywardness which is what captures many if not everyone's attention. And thanks to social media, attention brings you money, lots of it.

What sustains companies? Money.....

Or.... Am I missing something?.....

It is a classic reflection of our society. In the last election, a candidate backed his ideas and plans with statistics, researched properly which was evidence in his responses. However, Nigerians decided to vote someone who boldly said "na statistics we go chop?"

In essence, the companies are all about the glamor and profits.

Is it only in science that research are conducted?

My question is to you, what impact have you made in the society for the betterment for your immediate environment?

It's really difficult for people to understand. These guys just want to make money. If you want them to sponsor research, show them how it benefits them.
Re: Nigerian Companies Fail To Fund Research But Actively Sponsor BBN - Don (video) by PigTormentor: 2:19pm On Sep 17, 2025
They are all waiting for govt to fund everything.
Business enterprise are usually the backbone of research and development.
