How did you come to the conclusion I lacked knowledge about google? I bet you won't recognize satire even if it hits you in the face. This was all meant to be satirical "mr educate yourself"
Maybe put a tag that it was sarcasm?

How is that wrong. It seemed like you didn't know how google worked and I said you should educate yourself about it.

PoliticsRe: Photo: Google Disrespecting Buhari? by raayah(f): 1:47pm On Aug 23, 2015
OP

Do you know how google works??
You searched for D.aura Dulard on google . That term is specifically used by nairalanders to refer to Buhari.

Secondly, the place D.aura was not really known until Buhari became the president of Nigeria. The only reason why most people know of Daura is because of Buhari. So it makes sense for the word "Daura" to bring Buhari up.

If you google otuoke and retar.deen , GEJ picture also comes up.

Please educate yourself.

she should have explain same thing to the op if truly that's the only thing it's meant for
It is used for treating amenorrhea. If a girl misses her period while she is not pregnant, the drug can help restore it.

That drug cannot cause abortion. Let him take that girl to the hospital.
RomanceRe: I Found Gynaecosid Tablets On My Supposedly Virgin Girlfriend.. by raayah(f): 1:15pm On Aug 23, 2015
Gynaecosid is used for the treatment of non-occurrence of menstrual periods in certain cases (secondary amenorrhea) NOT FOR ABORTIONS. Gynaecosid is prescribed after period is missed for two consecutive months where there is no pregnancy. This drug is not a contraceptive or an abortificient.

What actually happens is if a woman misses her menstrual cycle for any other hormone-related reasons other than pregnancy Gynaecosid stimulates menstruation.

If your girlfriend is on that drug please take her immediately to the hospital.
FamilyRe: Response To "My Children Will Not Suffer What I Suffered" Post by raayah(op): 7:15pm On Aug 22, 2015

Thanks baby
FamilyResponse To "My Children Will Not Suffer What I Suffered" Post by raayah(op):
There has been a thread going round on nairaland about how we should let our children "suffer" or go through life without their parents added help.

I am responding to this post because I have been on both ends of the spectrum.

Let me tell you firsthand that If possible , my children will not suffer what I went through.

1)The first issue was about summer Jobs, Claiming Nigeria parents don't let their kids work 'summer' jobs. This is a very broad generalization in the first sense. I schooled abroad and I personally don't know any Nigerian student who didn't work during the summer. We are known for over-working. I think the OP took an isolated event and over-generalized it. To be honest, Nigeria is one of the few countries where students dont work during the summer because of lack of Jobs.

2) I don't see what is wrong with your children flying first class. This is more of envy than anything. Dog's fly first class planes. I wan't my kids to enjoy their flight. What is wrong with this? To be honest, One of my life goals is to make sure that my children never enter danfo. I entered danfo a lot of times and I cannot recall any major life lessons i learnt. Its not wrong to enter danfo but its not necessary either. A car will be able to get them to their destination quicker (sometimes). A driver's licence and ability to drive is required for most Jobs everywhere in the world. Denying my kids that basic skill just because I didn't learn to drive until I was 30 does not help me or them. I want my kids to succeed and I will help.

3) Making calls on behalf of my kids for jobs is not encouraged but If my kids were having difficulty in finding a Job, I will talk to my contacts and See What I can do about it. If I let my kids go 2-3years while looking for a Job that's even a detriment for him because the unemployment gap on his resume keeps getting wider. This also goes for friends and family too, If I know a company/manager that is hiring, I would recommend friends who need jobs . Why not my own kids? I have friends who are hardworking and after getting that first Job , they gained experience and worked hard to the top.

4)I have not really heard of people telling their employers that their salary is less than the stipend their parents gave them. If someone makes such a comment, then they are at fault and will not be hired. Also both poor people and rich people are prone to drug and alcohol abuse. An individual who is an adult should know how to take care of their health.

Lastly, I will not send my kids to universities with outdated technologies or to universities where their script goes missing, or let them spend 10 years there just because I experienced it. To be honest, I did not like my experience in Nigerian universities and will not wish my enemies to pass through what I went through. It was depressing and humiliating.

While I was a student in a foreign University, I worked almost 40hours a week and took 6-7 engineering courses per semester, I burned out and almost failed out because of this. The truth is that a lot of students taking professional courses at the university either take fewer courses or shorter hours at work. The top students in my class did not do any part-time jobs and when it was time for internships they got great ones because while we were working 40 hours as cleaners, they focused on their books. Neither of us had any professional experiences but they picked them because they showed excellence in engineering course-work which was more relevant than a job. They did great internships and got great jobs.



I understand that we should not over-pamper our kids but what's wrong with giving them a helping hand?

My advice to jobseekers is to put more effort in physical Networking, CV upgrade and build interviewing skills.

noadvertjobs:
Yes, those things you mentioned does help in placing a job applicant at a higher advantage, but most times, securing a job goes beyond having good grades because I know many graduates with good grades still struggling to get a job or something out of life.
For me its quite the opposite, most of the students with better grades in my class all got jobs and internships faster.

If selected for the programme one will not only embark on a once in a lifetime flight to space but will also be offered a three-year management contract.

The programme invited both One Young World ambassadors and outstanding members of the public aged 18-30 to nominate themselves to take on the trip of a lifetime.

You nominate yourself too!

Freeman is among the 30 selected finalists only 3 people will be taken to space.

Stop spreading false information.
