The survey is based on a project being developed by a group of Nigerian Students who would like to enrich the lives of undergraduates through academic, social and business activities. In order to tailor the project to the actual needs of undergraduates, this survey was developed.

This survey is therefore conducted to get the opinions of individuals on the readiness for and openness to a potential online community that allows undergraduates nationwide to interact and collaborate.

So, please respond to this survey genuinely to ensure that this project is best-suited to the needs of Nigerian Students.
There are no adverts on the page, just 13 questions and every submitted response will be used only for the project it is meant for.

Please help fill out the survey by visiting the link below and also broadcast the link to other groups & channels so as to reach other Nigerian students.
Thank you!

With the current trend of happenings in the country, it has to be painted out if this current administration has been unlucky or they just don’t know how to govern. Things have been really messy, the nation is in a real state of confusion with everyone waiting and hoping for a magic to turn things around for good.

This present administration was evidently unlucky to come into power when the prices of crude globally have begun to decline drastically. Nigeria as a nation has placed her entire confidence and focus on the oil sector which is now really affecting the economy, making it difficult for the country to maintain a stable economy. We can’t blame this administration for the fall of oil prices, but surely, we could blame the entire government that has ever ruled this nation for not investing enough and assisting vehemently other income earning sectors in the nation. This fall of oil prices has really shaken the nation, the dollar exchange rate to naira is devastating, bringing about a rise in almost all commodities in the market, where even the once very cheap and common commodity, garri, has now become expensive with some families finding it difficult to purchase the commodity.

The tomato issue is also one problem that has caused a nationwide stir and given Nigerians a hard knock, as it is one very vital ingredient in the Nigerian delicacy and cannot be avoided. I haven’t heard any tale or ready any history of tomato causing such a problem in the country like it is now, we never saw it coming, nature played its thing. It can’t be said to be the fault of this administration. It is a situation that caught us all suddenly which was caused by the massive infestation of tomato plantations in the north (been the major supplier of this commodity) by the pest called Tuta Absoluta with the common name Tomato Leafminer. No one certainly can blame this administration for this, although, it could be said that necessary precautionary measures should have been taken by the agricultural sector to avoid such disastrous infestation.

Talking about running the government, this administration has not been up and doing, with things moving from bad to worse, Nigerians groaning everyday, massive sacking in numerous companies, insecurity, employment soaring higher. Looking at the fuel subsidy issue, removing the subsidy was a very good call, but truth be told, its timing was wrong. Removing the subsidy at a time when oil prices had fallen and naira losing its value at an alarming pace, it was not a good call. Though, Yes! The federal government was able to make some money from the removal, yes! The subsidy profiteers have been knocked out, but the time it happened wasn’t a good one. The removal of subsidy brought the price of petrol from N86.5 to N145 which dealt a serious blow to Nigerians, bringing prices of commodities even higher after the dollar price has caused its own effect.

The handling of insecurity another issue that has made this government questionable. We were promised a secured nation, but its a no news anymore about the new threats that have began to ravage the country. The government has not done enough is curbing the situation, it is the responsibility of the government to invite involved parties and have a meaningful dialogue, with each party receiving the same care and attention given to others. I personally am waiting for the moment when we would have a government headed by a personality who gives no preference based on tribes.

Another thing about I hold against this government has been the rate of travels by the president. No good leader leaves his home unsettled to settle matters abroad and this has put the president into the black book of many. I recollect a time, in a public transport, a man was bitterly expressing his anger at the numerous travels of the president, asking the questions why? What has he achieved with all the travels? Is any help forthcoming from all these travels? As he was expressing himself, fellow commuters joined also expressed their bad feeling about it. The president has been viewed by numerous persons to be lackadaisical about the welfare of the ordinary Nigerian. His recent travel for the treatment of his ear infection has also caused one big stir in the nation and raised questions, but frankly, is this government taking us for granted? Do Nigerians matter at all to these leaders?

Lots and lots of promises made before the election are yet to be fulfilled, and what the administration could say was “The Mistake We Made Was Talking Too Much During the Campaign”, and one begins to wonder, were they unconscious while making all those promises? What kind of government makes such a statement?
A lot is really bothering this administration, which brings about the question: are they unlucky? Or are they just incapable of governing?

To my fellow nairalanders, whats your response?

If you’re fed up with charging your smartphone every night – not to mention trawling through hundreds of features just to make a call – then you’re in luck.
Nokia has launched a simple $20 (approx 4k) mobile phone that can last for 35 days on a single charge.
It is aimed at emerging markets where electricity is rare, but could also be sold as a back-up phone.
'The new Nokia 105 builds on the success of its predecessor, the award-winning Nokia 105, and adds several improvements to enable you to achieve more,' the firm said.
On top of the enhanced audio for even better voice clarity, you can now talk longer; the new Nokia 105 supports up to 15-hours talk time.
So you can talk, and talk, and talk with your friends and family.
With an extended phonebook capacity, the new Nokia 105 can store up to 2,000 contacts.
It will also be available in a dual sim version.
