The awards wouldn't clear his name, it is the DOJ of USA not Nigeria.

Remember same US accused Atiku for one crime and also let him in during the peak of election.

Don't take US serious. Their own crime against many nations of the world far outweighs fraud they accuse others of.

Another evidence logical reasoning is not your forte. You allege her probable inability to code even in the light of someone who worked with her during her internship stating otherwise. There's no point belaboring you with providing evidence anymore though. You obviously are as empty as they come.
The saying "he who alleges has the burden of proof" does not register anything to your leaking cranial vault does it? And when did I mention that I know her? Mental hallucinations also part of your plethora of maladies? I'm only someone who knows how to rejoice with those rejoicing. To celebrate the achievement of others. Hers is a stellar performance and I celebrate her with all my being. See how even you think I know her now? That's how life is supposed to be. Not for sour grape souls like yourself that choose to dim other people's shine just to feel better with their inconsequential, audio dour existence. Bloody hater.
My friend shattap dia. Ask around and you'll understand nobody wants to know jack about your coding. At least not from a hateful soul like you. An intellectually bereft soul like yours has no tenable point of argument.
Typical balderdash from someone impervious to reason. Trying to use empty agbari to answer. And I'm not surprised you focus only the buildings that collapse- reminiscent of your own collapsed existence that makes you see everything from the perspective of negativity. The millions of buildings that are standing nko? Who do you accord the credit?
The millions that get well from treatment by doctors everyday nko? As if if you're sick now you still won't go seek medical help from Nigerian accredited doctors. Hater that can only spot negativity. Can you see how well you've advertised your diabolically distorted negative mindset to every single reader here? I'm glad it's easy to goad you into displaying your true full colors to the consternation of the generality.
Lame. Try and be original next time please

Of course I'm enjoying my world with my positive outlook. I celebrate Ebhomielen Ofure Mary who this thread is about and her real achievements. To hell with those who can only see negativity and blackness and doom and collapse and sickness and wrong prescriptions... and lest I forget coding wey dem carry for head like gala

I remember you said I should get a real job. Remember I asked u, what is a real job? To wear suit under AC and earn? Chew on this. Companies I have dealt with across board, things I have done, risk I have taken, deals I have done. You cant match them.

You see the year? I have left that terrain and after dropping it on nairaland for others to eat from and currently on something different now cos I am adventurous and hunger keep getting better.

My world and yours are different. It would be best you appreciate this. I don't need to wait for a job like it is done in your world before I can feed. I create my own opportunities. I don't conform to the rules of your world.

Logical reasoning? You should have guessed by now that I don't read all your crap cos why you still live in theoretical world, I speak from experience.

I sound insane to you just they way you sound abnormal to me.

Here we go again. You must have said this a zillion times yet you keep coming back to answer me. If you can't be termed as confused, a better word doesn't exist.
Biko leave the gentlemen out of your rants. They are well accomplished people in their chosen fields. They exercised their civic responsibility by voting a candidate of their choice and you come foaming in the mouth. Is it their fault you are inconsequential in the affairs of Nigeria as not to possess the kind of platform they have? I don't expect you to accord them any respect because you are the only champion in your world.. with all your unverifiable audio accomplishments.
You have a problem with grammarians now.. na we no make Nigeria progress.. Dude you keep embarrassing yourself on here with your warped thinking. One minute you tell me I don't understand the meaning of the word "may" next I'm a grammarian one minute my mother is breastfeeding me, the next I should drop my certificate and come compete with your hustling ass. Dude are you for real at all? Never had so much fun watching a grown man make a complete fool of himself like you are doing here. Keep humoring me son
You keep drowning in the morass of your own ludicrousness dude. The saying is "he who alleges has the burden of proof" You are the hater that first questioned her ability, alleging her not being able to code. Have you proved it? I repeat dude you are totally incapable of logical and coherent thought from all you have been spewing on here. Someone who worked with her during her internship already gave credence to her sterling prowess at everything related to her discipline including this coding wey you carry for head like gala but your hate for anything good in others blinded you to it naturally.
You are literate but obviously far from being educated and that explains your meaningless rants on this thread. As stupid as this analogy of yours is, kindly google the difference between an engineer and a technician first. Then I can school you a bit.

Your problem is you are just being stupid without realizing it.

You accused me of not proving her abilities to code but even you has not proved to this community that she can code.

So if you who has been defending her as though you know her can't prove her ability to code, so why should who does not know her prove her inability to code?

My point of argument stem from the fact that most Nigerian coders are self taught because of the power system we have here and many of them learned this on their own, especially after leaving uni. Go to the programming section on here, ask around.

But you are here defending what you don't know just to massage your ego for being a degree holder.

I even more realistic than you are.

Being a Technician and Engineer are just terms, dude. The end result is to proffer practical solutions to problems and you know quite well that there engineers who are not worth the degree they brag about in this country. Who are the guys behind the building collapses in a Nigeria? You might want to dodge this with the excuse of draftsman being the ones behind such, but who approved the building and all other things?

I made reference to a medical doctor who gave wrong prescription to me, he was certified by a medical body wasn't he?

Don't flatter yourself young man...

You may not be the son of your father after all.

Our worldview are far apart... This clash will never end. Enjoy your world and I hope it pays you as much as I am enjoying mine.

7thLemonLOVER:
Easier said than done.

How do you raise the capital and sustain your "self employment" when the government is over taxing the citizens?

you can start by offering services... Offering services is the fastest way to raise money, smarter way is offering the service to get paid in dollars and I know a few Nigerians who do this.

Learn skills that can aid you to raise this money by buying some courses on udemy.com. I suggest digital marketing and the likes.

Turn around and use that knowledge to help companies in UK, US, Germany when you become proficient in it. You can go a step further by doing some consulting with same knowledge.

If you do consulting and get paid $500 a week/ client, how many can you do in a month?

Don't doubt this figure because someone once contacted me and he paid me $500 bucks just for few hours of my knowledge in a different field, not digital marketing.

While most of you clinch to this watery excuse about capital, 90 % of you can't make anything meaningful when they eventually get the capital because your foundation of business is faulty.

I started my movement with Nokia C1-01. Google that phone and get an idea.

The question is how bad do you want it?

I don't know what too say is good reading post like this,now I know am not all alone.i lost 800k in 2017 too mmm and the likes.up till date am still paying debt ,I had to pay one last week after I made the payment I almost cried.i also remember clearly in same 2017/2018 dec_january I started buying coins and icos like davor etc before January ending I had lost 400k(first time I will do internet business without profit)
In 2018 I kept my cool concentrated on trading forex since have been at it for long i got an investor who opened an account with a broker which turned out too be scam.we didnt withdraw the proceed for a year it was December that we discovered that the broker had become a scammer and the money inside the account was 1.4m I started with just 1000$.for good two weeks I was in shock I was hoping too use my share of the money too clear part of my 2017 debt now all gone. Let me just say have learnt my lesson and am still learning my risk and losses have reduce greatly this year and I made sure I don't take loan or anything again too fund internet business...I still trade forex am profitable as usual and also have decided too start physical business.Now within the past three weeks many friends asked me what business too go into I told them ur business should reflect ur personality

Chai, inside life. I warned people about this MMM back. Then. Even one girl went to borrow people's money but they refused to listen.

She is still. Paying that debt till today.

Roysnickz:
. Seems you are just a proud person. So fast to praise your self and quick to condemn every other fellow... Everyone but you is not good enough and can't be good in their choose field. Truth be told, many graduates ( non Nigerians inclusive) can't replicate their good grades in real life application, a whole lot are however, doing wonders. Why are you so convinced that this lady belong to the former...Why not give her a benefit of doubt. You might have seen many first class graduate who know next to nothing in their fields, so you said. However, I'm sure you ve not met a perfect first class graduate who knows next to nothing in his/her field. The lady in question is not just the regular first class. She graduated with a perfect CGPA. That means she had only As - and no single B- throughout her program. Why not give such a person a benefit of doubt and allow her prove us wrong. I' m not saying she must be practically good to attained such wonderful feat. But is certificate (result) a prove of lack of practical knowledge in her area of study? For your information Mechanical Engineering is quite different from the normal road side mechanics you know that fix car and generator engines. I don't need to be one to know that Mechanical Engineers every where in the world don't fix cars. One don't need to be able service a vehicle or even use a spanner to be a very good Mechanical Engineer. Again, that you are into street hustle as you claimed, doesn't mean every one should be in. Many are making wonders in their various fields with the knowledge and skills gained in school. They don't challenge you to go and compete with them. So, why must every one drop their certificates, career etc to go compete with you in the street? Who then attend to our health need? Everyone can't be a street hustler. We need good economists to plan our economy. We need Good lawyers to defend us. We need good doctors to attend to health challenges. Your street hustle can't manage our health. You actually made so many points which do not count but I want to here.

I did not downgrade the lady. The only thing I said is she MAY not know how to code... And may means probability under this context...because I have never met her, it was not a statement of certainty.

I never said her first class is fake, I never said she used sex to obtain them.

I have friends who graduated with distinctions and I was having same until I lost my only parent and that destabilised me.

But that olarge and his crew were just rambling about grade as if it's the ultimate. It's the reason I had to remind his likes that academically outstanding folks voted a Buhari in this same country, many of them overseas.

If you analyze my comment, you will see I am actually harping on being SKILLFUL.

Trust me, out there, a highly skilled 3rd class will disgrace you and your first class.

Degrees are only used to screen people during recruitments in this part of the world.

At least a friend shared story of a lady who got job right here in Nigeria, while the company is outside Nigeria and that means she would be working from home.

She needed a job and took her problem outside, a case where had it been in Nigeria, they would frustrate with degree.

I am not proud, quite far from it.

As for street hustle, I enjoy what I do. I enjoy identifying problems within the society, including ones people on here complain about, do something to solve it and cash out. That is the summary of how I live my life.

This kind of life is not taught in school, even till this day and its not for the faint hearted.

My thirst for knowledge and inquisitive mind led me to it.

But I have to admit not everyone is cut out for this kind of life...

Every spheres of establishment in the world is a business center, whether you admit this or not. Some people sit on chairs everyday, press their PC and get paid but there are another set within that same company who make sure you get paid at the end of the month, they go out to get contracts, they risk, they negotiate, they bid... They compete.

What sounded like pride to you is a case of me being practical. School life is different from outside world and your grammar will fail you if you are not smart.

And while those guys tried to make me run with my tails between my legs, I await the day they can plant knowledge on nairaland for people to use to sustain themselves pending when they get a better option, to pay school fees, start small transport biz, get additional source cash stretching over 5 years for guys who stumbled on my foundational info etc like we do at the business section, but not under this handle.

My health? I still live with the damage a supposed doctor(probably a first class) caused me when I was in secondary school, experiencing relapses every now then 2016-2017 I was not myself, by 2018 I had to accept my fate, and you know how much that cost me? But I live like nothing happened.

All the best to you guys.

purest21:
Until Nigerians quit fighting back from the comfort of their homes behind keypads, the government can never be enlightened that power belongs solely to its citizens. And only then can the masses realize how much power they wield as things play out.

Now take a look at the massive protests going on in South America for over 2 months now. South Americans who happened to find themselves under the same shackles of poor leadership as Africans, but have fiercely refused and rebuked it consistently over the decades.

The recent protests started in their most developed country - Chile since October, over inequality, lack of opportunities and government's inability to distribute wealth and social services. The protest had only began for 1 week, the president already panicked, sacked his ministers, reshuffled cabinets. The citizens demanded a new constitution and his resignation. Out of fear, a committee was immediately set up and they're seriously working on the new constitution to at least get the over 1.8 million people off the streets of the capital who have caused a total city shut down for over 6 weeks. And maybe calm them enough with the new constitution that gives them equal rights to participate in the economy so they might reconsider his resignation. That's a man who's scared cos he has been brought to light on the powers the citizens possess.

Bolivians followed suite in protests just about same time. Why? Because they believed their president rigged the election to re-elect himself. (Does it occur to anyone that these are the same damn things we experience but would just murmur about them over keypads for few days and it slowly dies off) Now the Bolivian President has resigned and fled to Mexico to seek asylum, CHASED OFF BY HIS OWN CITIZENS! And now they're planning on their new election. MASSES = RESULTS

Peruvians and Ecuadorians are also at it. While Peru came out in numbers to support their President in closing down a corrupt Congress, Ecuador citizens came out in numbers to pressure their President over removal of gasoline subsidy. And as expected, they're all getting results and not backing down until all requests are fulfilled.

Moral lesson:
No matter how authoritarian or totalitarian a government thinks it is, fact remains that no government on earth can cope with a total shut down with millions of citizens on the streets making serious demands in one voice.

Never compare a countries with a single language and another with over 200 languages.

They are not same.

Oh lawdy lawdy... So I was wrong to assume this was done and over with You always have no time for my epistles yet will respond with an equally long one. How mentally decrepit can you get?

In all sincerity it is your ability to appreciate things in context that is grossly in question. "May?" How about this, I'm invited to the naming ceremony of your child and I tell the other guests the child MAY not be yours. or I'm a guest at your wedding ceremony and announce to the other guests the bride MAY be a retired olosho. I guess both contexts should sit well with you after all I've left the margin for doubt. I may be wrong.

Even Dangote can be rubbished here unless he's willing to discard the garb of anonymity. You won't do that. I won't do that. Common sense should dictate to you to drop that obtuse line of argument. These audio claims ain't earning you no points on here. Be smart enough to at least recognize that.

So genius and positive decisions are mutually exclusive in your world ba? Sir with all due respect you are incapable of deductive reasoning. Those guys you mentioned exercised their civic responsibilities by voting APC and used their established platforms to give their chosen candidates the edge they could muster cos they saw him as a better of 2 evils. How does that even question the soundness of their intellectual sagacity? Trump emerged in US. How will you interpret that?

This banter is getting stale by the way but of course a mama's boy like me has all the time to straighten out a confused, hating old man like you.

Confused hating? Dude you write too much and you don't want to accept reality.

Well I wish you best of luck.

But I hope you consider better countries. If you have a master degree it’s almost 90% sure that you will get into USA coz their student visas are actually guaranteed when you apply for PhD.

If you have an undergraduate degree, you can apply for masters here in USA and admission is guaranteed even without GRE or TOEFL. But the main issue is that the visa chances for masters student continue to decline since Trump took over except if funding can appear on your student I20 document.

I bet you, coming to USA for schooling above undergraduate level will be a better decision than moving to another African country as an entrepreneur (unless if you have lot of capital) which more or less are just a lil better or even worse than Nigeria.

Note: Try the Nairaland student visa section thread, you will get a lot of info on there. I travelled couple of years back through that thread before I started wasting my time on the politics section.

user283:
There's this lady I've been dating for two years now. We happen to be members of the same church and I ought to have taken the relationship to the next level by getting my parents to her place for our introduction last month but I had a rethink and postponed our introduction due to an issue that might cause problem in the future

I noticed my girlfriend is the stingy type. When I mean stingy, it's on the high side. Assuming she's just averagely stingy I wouldn't really be bothered but this is gross.

I work as a bank teller (contract staff) and my salary isn't really much while she works in Shoprite. Even from the little I earn, I'm always sensitive to her needs and I tip her whether she's stranded or not since I love her but how can I explain being with a lady for two solid years and I've never for once received any gift no matter how little it is? Not even something as little as toothbrush or hair cream

Initially, I didn't see this as a big deal probably because I grew up with the mentality that it's a taboo for a man to expect gifts or little support from his girlfriend when he's in dire need
but I've now grown to realize that "give and take" is one of the key elements of a good relationship

Even if I get stranded or go into debt, my girlfriend acts nonchalant and she'll be the
last person that will ever render a little financial assistance to help my situation. You might say I should sit her down and discuss about it. Yes I've already done that and I made her understand that I actually postponed our introduction for no other reason but because I'm still indecisive if I want to spend the rest of my life with a selfish woman but her response shows she takes pride in being stingy

I even used logic to whine her younger brother recently just to be sure if she's stingy to me alone but the boy confirmed it that her sister is very stingy. I decided to carry out my findings on her brother because I believe he should know her better.

You might want to talk about sex but my belief is that sex is just a mutual pleasure and does not define what a woman gives to you in a relationship especially a relationship that will lead to the altar

What's getting me worried is that we've come a long way but I don't want to end up with a selfish woman because it's written all over her that she cares so much only about her own well being

Please advice your fellow brother. Do I have a reason to be worried? I've been jumping a lagoon for a woman who can't jump a gutter for me especially when it comes to giving. Should I tolerate this level of stinginess from a woman simply because I'm a man?

P.S: I'm still with her because she has other good traits

Please pardon my typos. I wrote this in a hurry
