Script well played.
Labour and TUC never meant to go on any strike.
They played us.

SmartProf:

Ehen! You must have been the secretary in all their meetings. Can u pls furnish us with the minute of the last meeting?

LibertyRep:


If they truly wanted to go on strike/protest for the hike in the prices of petrol and power, they do not need to grandstand and procrastinate till the industrial court stops them.
The postponement of the action till next week was just a ploy to buy more time. Now they have an alibi.

This country is just a joke. When you are tired of the joke, u either look for a visa or join those joking with it.

I swear this is what I long realized during this pandemic. I don't have the magnamity to join politics or anybody's arse to lick my way up in a federal parastatals so CAD/USA VISA on our mind when school finishes.

SmartProf:

You'll be happy you did. Later on when you've made some really good achievements, U can visit & donate some palliatives and bolt out again. Let those who want to pray for the country keep praying.

flyingpig:
Exactly bro. I'll surely give back to society. Let those who will keep praying, keep praying. When I got into JSS1 in 2006, we used to say recite two prayers everyday: "prayer against bribery and corruption in Nigeria", and "prayer against chaos in Nigeria". I was appalled to learn from my school father in SS3 that when he got into JSS1 in the year 2000, his own school father; an SS3 student at 2000 said the prayer had already been there when he came for his own common entrance. That takes us way back to 1994. I'm just trying to point out that that prayer has been recited everyday for over 25years old, but nothing has changed. And nothing will change. Those who intend to keep praying should go on. They will either get old and be full of regrets and disappointments, or wake up from slumber on time and get a VISA, or at least join the circus show of looting.

When Nigerian students hear that NLC want to go on strike on the very day they were to resume after seven months of not seeing their boyfriends and girlfriends......
Students be like.....

SmartProf:

. That's why u'll need to visit and donate palliatives for them to use so they can have the energy to keep praying for their looters in govt.
