Madam,you let go leprosy to cure krokro.You have to help talk to the evil and greedy private security operators who collect 50 to 70 thousand naira per guard from clients only to pay the guards 15 to 20 thousand naira per month.And they won't even pay it on time.

Oby Ezekwesili, she is one of those psychologically homeless Igbo people we have been seeing in the news from time to time. She herself on record talks about how kwashiorkor basically messed her mind up.

She is a joker and has nothing to offer

I beg to differ.

Can you really separate a Nigerian and "awoof"?

Pay them N100k/month...still nothing beats those freebies.

Your DNA please. Some of us have some dignity. It is better to drink garri with some self respect than to eat a whole roasted chicken acquired from begging.

Shorrop there, na people like you dey use fake account here dey beg for money to pay school fees every other 2 weeks, school fees that never gets paid even if u collect 100k ,you will be here again doing same with another account in 2 weeks

I am not just blabbing.. for decency sake I will not expose the people who beg me on social media daily. Facebook ooo, whatsapp oooo, guy I Don taya... even those I see are not doing badly, judging from the pictures of their house, car and what have u, those are the worst. They will lie that government have not paid them from the contract they executed and now their rent is due bla bla that I should rescue them.. they will even give u a time line that in 2 days of u don't send theme $$$$ they will be homeless, bla bla bla

A couple of them got busted the last time I was in Nigeria.. one of them thought I was still in the US and he was asking me money, so I went straight to his house and saw that he was actually feasting, having a party, he was so shocked to see me. I asked him, "if you will be evicted in 2 days, why are you partying? You should be saving every kobo towards the rent"

I SAY IT HERE WITHOUT MINCING WORDS, THE AVERAGE NIGERIAN IS A BEGGER... AND IF THEY ARE NOT BOTHERING YOU YET, IT SHOWS THEY BELIEVE YOU DON'T HAVE. IF THEY FEEL YOUR CONDITION IS A BIT BETTER THAN THEIRS, THEY WILL BEG YOU FOR BEGGING SAKE, EVEN IF THEY DON'T NEED YOUR HELP, THEY BEG FOR FUN, EVEN YOUR PASTORS ARE BEGGERS, SOW SEED, BLA BLA BLA, IS ALL EXECUTIVE BEGGING

I beg leave matter joo

you are right about the officers,but my thought was for peanut-salary earners like cleaners,gatemen and such.we all have pride as humans; we mostly only ask for help when we have no choice.it's bad tho that begging is becoming a norm in nigeria just like yahoo; it's the result of bad leadership

I don't know how beggarly attitude of gatemen affects the nations economy. I really don't know how.
Same here. That should be private side hustling. Some of these personnel earn little above 15k/month. How do you survive with such amount in an economy like ours here?

Under Obasanjo, this same woman wanted to sell Unity schools to people like Dangote. That single step would have ensured that the children of the low wage workers like gatemen would never be able to afford Unity schools.

She attempted to deprive coming generations of public education and she's trying to form holy. She thinks everyone has short memories like her supporters.

She should shut up cos she's part of the problem and stop making hypocritical noise. With her hair like the experiment of an inexperienced barber.
Think. What percentage of Nigerian students attend Unity schools per year?

Think. What's wrong with privatizing education?

And think. What is the state of the Unity schools now that they were not privatized, are they better off?

The comment read like it came out of some sort of dislike for Mrs Ezekwesili.

We need a minimum wage that will cut across Nigeria, until then we are not ready
This government na for mouth only o, they increased police salary to 84k for constables since last year november, till now, they nor do anything. Some police men work 24Hrs on and 24Hrs off, some work 24Hrs without off everyday. Yet you manage to increase their salary with mouth with nothing to show for it yet they want them to perform well. My guy, money dey boost moral o

Nor mention police abeg, the salary is too poor. Not justifying begging but i sometimes Dont blame those who do

Story
Weren't you asking me if they now attend unity schools?

How many Private institutions give concessions to children of low-earning staff?

Look at that poultry called Madonna, look at the mess it has become.

Even those pastors, how many children low-earning members get concessions to attend their schools?

Unity schools are the last hope of intelligent but indigent students, and this hypocritical woman wanted to cancel that opportunity cos of greed.
We didn't vote the pastors to lead the country - stop expecting them to.

Scholarships are the last hope of indigent exceptional students not unity schools.. cheesy

Lol, my bro, they use mouth increase am o, we never see the effect for alert. The salary is 45k with small small change, no additional, promotion comes nothing less than once in 4years and and they lack manpower seriously Hence they over work the men on ground. NPF nor too bad but the high price of things for Nigeria nor dey help matter. I really wish things will go well for you too, people they beg to get N.power o. This country is just Turninoniown

Mr. Fallacy, tell me about fallacy!
How do you test your hypothesis to conclude what I said is fallacious?
Is there anyone you know since you were born,
that is a Nigerian that has not begged for something in your presence?

I don't know any, living or dead!
Even Abiola (MKO) was described by Fela Anikulapo Kuti,
in his album "Underground System"

- na so Abiola bigi man go dey beg everybody oooo, e go begi soja,
e go begi navy, e go begi police, e go begi airforce, e remain small
make him come beg himself-

you honestly think that line of his song is a lie?

IF YOU CLAIM NIGERIANS ARE NOT BEGGARS, YOU MAY AS WELL
CLAIM NIGERIA IS A SUPER POWER NATION. Some truths are so
obvious, that the veracity of the proposition needs no testing

in warri we call it para, (coined from the word parasite) those days
in lagos they call it ragging or hussle the guy. even lecturers intimidating
students through their acolytes to come block is a form of begging.

no be all begging be, please borrow me, I go pay you later oooo
