"Saner climes" lmao 😂😅 Nigerians with inferiority complex.

Term used as descriptive,and to emphasize a point, not as an indication of inferiority or otherwise.

Kalulu44:
He can still be attending classes while playing. Many footballers have done it and still doing it

Focus

Yinmu! Just talk sey you wan go buy degree

School will help refine him he has a very annoying street altitude that affected his career.

nairalanda1:
Not all of them. Some do go back to school, some even do it partime while playing.

The late Sam Okwaraji was doing his education partime while playing aborad..and he was born here.

Yes even ndidi and ihenacho are university graduates from universities in the UK.

LagosOrigin:
He doesn't really need the degree because he has become successful

Do you know how much of real estate that osimhen has to his name in Lagos and Abuja?

He's made for life

He is made for life no doubt about that but he knows he still needs some education for refinement and communication amongst the elites.

nairalanda1:

People that use that statement for whatever reason are inferior, you are not an exception because there no such thing as "a saner clime" because every country have her problems. In America people shoot themselves everyday, two died in my area this morning (for example) Will you now say it is a saner clime because afterall they have jobs and good roads for example? Yes we have problems than they do but that doesn't make anywhere a saner clime. Na inferiority complex dey worry una.

Helinuse:
But one small dude somewhere in Nairaland will rush out to tell you, "School na scam."
The funny thing is that unimportant men make slogans to justify their own unimportance.

A dude who can't pass exams enough to qualify for higher education will say, "School na scam."
A dude who has obtained a degree but hasn't had any opportunity to be valuable to himself with it will say, "School na scam."

But a person who has created value for himself and his society via the degree he has obtained will never say the same.

Anything they teach you in unilag you can learn times 10 of those info on chatgpt..
School na scam. Education is not scam chief

Freshtruth:
oga graduate full my fish pound

I love you boss

You have to understand that school is a western thing. You suppose know say eget reason why they gave us school and starve us of important things. They gave you school without knowledge. Which western school no get better infrastructure for practice.

Person wey finish with elect elect here go still buy phone and calculator they cam never create.

Wotowotoman:
Victor really needs the education. This same bobo wey lodge for hotel wey I lodge for VI and carried like ten exotic cars come.

In his convoy, you go see Rolls Royce, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Range Rover, G wagon, etc. and he no dey comot without all of them.

That shows illiteracy. First, why blow all your money on all those exotic cars? Second, why moving around in all of them at the same time? See as them just dey constitute nuisance for the hotel. The guy should quickly go that school. He need am

What about davido boss

What is school?
What is education?

Is school not education?
You see why people like you shouldn't be going around saying "school na scam?"
You are contradicting yourself on very basic terminologies in a bid to sound woke, and you are failing on it.

saintopus:
It's a very good one, most Nigerians football stars lack education.
Them no go school.
Apart from those born abroad, the homegrown ones lack education

Smh.

Abroad means better to you because of inferiority complex.

It is Nigerian-based players that even study hard and known to be professionals.
Segun Odegbami is an Engineer, Amasiamake was a lawyer, Okwaraji, and co yet were not born abroad.

I dare say that getting university degree has always been the Nigerain-based player turf.

Sonnobax15:

Good one.

Imagine a billionaire like osimhen still has the guts and zeal to say he wants to return back to school,but one small Yahoo boy wey him mama just pay 1000 dolls from her pension money go open mouth say school na scam

But then again,we all know it's not gonna be easy but at least we've heard how other ex players did it and were successful on it.

But I hope he won't do that in any of these our current Nigerian universities cha, cuz,Even ordinary peller that went to his paparazzi school one time ago,the rate at which Nigerian bannies were stalking him,the werey had to drop out by force

George Weah had to go back to the University to be considered as knowledgeable enough to become president of Liberia.

Oshimen does not need to school in Nigeria. He can afford the best of the best anywhere else...without writing JAMB.

Wilfred Ndidi made sure he finished his bachelor's degree before leaving Leicester

And you somehow think that schools out there are better than Nigerian ones because they "don't write JAMB?"
What if you discover that they write far tougher exams than we do before entry?

Do you know what an SAT is?

Lol. After a Masters degree in USA.
I don't know where you were in 1998 though.

Sorry, I dont consider exams as tough. You get the syllabus and past questions and prepare for it.

There are certain nuances and experiences that digital platforms can not teach you.

There is a research that shows that from 2010, Students especially GenZ performed 2/3rds lower than the previous generation when the norm is that the next generation outperforms the previous and the culprit is digital learning.

Recently, I asked chatgpt to teach me something...it did. Nevertheless when I carry the book by myself begin read am, I saw a much more broader and detailed information that gave me a fuller picture.

School is not meant to teach you everything. It has a syllabus.

People wey go school for Nigeria and USA know wetin I dey talk.

And people wey go school when personal computing never exist go understand.

Very typical.

Online big boys.



USA indeed.
The kind of USA that doesn't need notes, but only a "syllabus and past questions."
This guy, na JAMB wey your mind, wey you still dey struggle with, be the USA masters wey you dey infer.


Because the last time I heard of "Syllabus and Exams" was in Jamb.

For both my Master's and my Doctorate degrees, I never once used the word "syllabus."
And I don't need to tell you where I obtained those degrees from. I will let you enjoy the "online big man" position.

Ok you just need it for social status not a job go and do management courses online or part time

Sheuns:
To you money may be all you need in life, but it’s not African.

A good name is better than gold and silver. African proverb (in fact it’s Yoruba adage).

Power is greater than money. Someone with power can render your money useless.

The bolded one is from the bible.

Is there any course in this world that does not have a syllabus ? From elementary subjects to Doctorate courses ?

Which means you dont even know the difference between a syllabus and a curriculum....and you claim sey you get doctorate.

The mere fact that you are arguing this simple fact cast serious doubts on whatever education you claim to have.

How can you claim you went to school and not use the word syllabus ever.

Meanwhile,any school wey you claim to go for this world no go ever reach Havard.

Unless you go Harvard,Princeton or MIT, sorry I no rate you at all.

And if you schooled in Nigeria, if you no go OAU, UI or Unilag, sorry na poultry farm you go.

And where were you in 1998 when the primary way to know your Jamb result was to take your slip to Jamb office in Ikoyi and be on the line for several hours.

Dey run your mouth anyhow.

Goodman247:

Not everything is money. There is life after football and having the right education opens certain doors that will remain closed to you if you dont have the education for it.

George Weah found out the hard way when he wanted to become President. He had to go back to school in USA .

A lot of ex footballers that did not prepare for life after football remain stuck.

Those who did like Sunday Oliseh, Mike Emenalo,Seyi Olofinjana and Mikel Obi get to do other things.

I have a bunch of ex-professionals that I play with every Saturday in Atlanta. Some are delivery drivers and one can not even read to fill forms by himself.

Automatically some doors are closed to them.

Even with money, if the mind is not engaged, depression go set in. When the lights are gone, the chants of fans and the daily training is no more.

What next.

I’d love to return to school, get a degree — Osimhen

Come England, you can do both together

No need my brother, people that have degrees in Nigeria are regretting. Some have burn theirs. Just look for a good teacher to teach you how to read very well and how to manage your resources

You see why I say, sometimes it is better to be quiet? If you had been quiet, we would still have accorded you your "online big man."

But let me inform you: a PhD does not have a syllabus. It's a research-based degree.
Even the few universities that mandate taught courses mandate only "Research Methodology" courses as prerequisites.
After you claimed that you graduated from the USA, you are then running up and down with the word "Harvard."

I don't know why you brought in "curriculum" when you were simply talking about a syllabus. You are chasing your shadows, oh.

Again, I repeat, your knowledge of school is not beyond JAMB. That is why you keep talking about JAMB as if it were your greatest achievement.
And it is only in JAMB that people do what you said: "use the SYLLABUS, to study an EXAM, then you pass."


Na only JAMB that system was popular on.
In systems, you study your NOTES, practice with past questions, and pass.
