I like the direction of this blog. However, since its intended to showcase Nigeria, the writing should be more meticulously done, you know, with better grammar and general accuracy.
This might help.

Is this market research?

CC: Lalasticlala Give this more audience lets know what Nigerians think.

Why do most white superheroes have a real life city or country they come from or are identified with - Tony Stark, Spiderman, Captain America are all from New York, Bruce Banner from Ohio & I heard Dr Strange is from Canada - yet when the time came, they had to invent a whole African nation so the black superheroes can have an origin?
Is it a way to express a perceived implausibility of ever having a real life African nation capable of such ingenuity, even in a fictional world? Or maybe I'm missing something!
You know, a fictional, ultra-developed, non-corrupt Nigeria filled with geniuses would make a fine sentiment, even though we only see it on screen. And then our children would grow up to see that movie and ask us where that fictional Nigeria is and we'd tell them to build it if they want it.
Usually when these Sci-Fi movies are made, and capabilities not possible in the real world as at the time are being displayed, we watch them knowing they're not real, they're fiction. But then, because those capabilities and the people or organizations possessing them are associated with a real world entity (nation, city or organization), you somehow create the idea that there's a prospect for those abilities to be achieved in the real world by those real world entities portrayed.
Its a way of telling the people "This isn't real now, but it may be possible."
That way, ten year old New York boys grow up feeling they can be Tony Stark. They stay motivated.
And we know how certain concepts (mostly technological) that were mere fiction in the 60s and 70s are real world technology today.
So, creating something fictional about me that I cannot do yet and showing it in a work of art is, in a way, an expression of faith in me to be able to do something of that scale now or later.

This is the whole reason why it keeps pissing me off that instead of using Nigeria, Morocco, Egypt, South Africa, name it.. a non-existent Wakanda was invented for an African civilization to be portrayed.
Its a silent way of saying, "I don't see the prospect for something this advanced ever coming from these guys so I'll just manufacture a place not on the map."
Its a way of saying, "Since these are all sh*thole countries, lets create something non-sh*thole befitting this fictional legacy."

I don't know if my thinking is just too weird but that's how I see it - as one grand way to further an age old stereotype.
Yes, Black Panther featured black guys and chicks with powers. But on a deeper layer, its not an acknowledgment of the real world Africa, its more like a denial.

FINAL RULE: DON'T LIVE OR DRIVE IN NIGERIA. HALF OF THE ABOVE IS NOT PRACTICABLE.

My brother you can get Medicine even at University of Pennsylvania. Relax!

U can't trust these folks, people!

NonFarmPayrol:

20 red light districts you mean

I think the whole intention of this post (or at least what it ended up achieving), was to bring to fore the bigger subject that there's a serious gender skew in the Tech professions in this country, not only programming.

And in fact, its not merely a Nigerian problem. Silicon Valley is filled with guys. Its just more skewed here and the reasons are obvious.

Very Important:
If she just went into labour and they called u from office, kindly ask a friend to drive u to d hospital. ...Especially if d last one didn't go well and you know her village people no pure.

Send them to naija!

One sharp N'digbo will re-rob them of all their plunder n end this drama codedly!
'iz a zimple stuvz'

IS A ZIMPLE STUVF

All these conflicting reviews!

Unlike most phones where the complaints are usually uniform, this one seems unpredictable.
I had the impression 2 weeks ago this phone's major minus was d mouthpiece & camera , which is no issue since I'm not a photo freak.
Now even the features dat caught my attention others are complaining. Still some are saying 'no hitches at all'

Leaves me wondering if the manufacturing itself isn't uniform. Why else will the performance vary like this?

Why is it always Malaysian airline biko? I tire 4 dis people

WAIT! IS THIS A TOPIC?

Was it caused by the sex with her?

No. Not at all. Something beyond both of us. It just had to b that way.

Is a tough Mata

~I lost my virginity at 23 (400 L)to d love of my life whom I knew since primary school

~I broke up with same girl 2 weeks after

~I sometimes 'overthink' about the world's problems and wish I knew much less than I do

~I have a secret fear of old age n all its issues

~I used to want to marry a white girl when I was younger. That was dumb! Now I can't take my eyes off my African beauties.

What sort of vague, ill-defined statistics are we talking about here?
That 80% or more of Nigerians are poor isn't statistic, its common knowledge, its current affairs at best.

Real statistics will first of all define "Poor" (as used in this context) using indices like
Average income,
living standards,
debt etc
The fact that none of these things is actually measured in this country is also common knowledge.

I don't enjoy ranting abt stuff. I just hate how we're still where we are with what we've had.

Users experiencing these mouthpiece issues, how bad is it?

JesusCrew:
No 4G on dis phone but its 3G connection speed is sweet. It rarely lags.

It really feels good and cool to hold.

Thanks. I'm getting it.

Dramadiddy:
just like every other phone

Not sure this really helps.
'Every other phone' vary in their performance.

I'm sure u've heard people say things like "my fone no dey catch network like your own"

How is the 3G connection speed of this device.
I've noticed some modern phones (packed with apps & capabilities) but without 4G tend to connect very slowly using 3G as compared to older, lighter phones even when signal is strong.

I depend on my androd data for my PC browsing (via hotspot).
A user with similar concerns shd pls enlighten me. thanks


Edit:
I felt like I found gold when I spotted this device.

Psalm18:
And dumb trump thinks the solution is to arm teachers


What if a teacher loses his marbles

COME TO THINK OF IT!

The issue of expired notes is easily solved. Students can work this one out 4 d benefit of their junior colleagues:
~Find a way to grab d note and dispose of it.
~He\she has to keep teaching d course and must form new notes hopefully from recent editions of d relevant texts.
~Its d easiest way 2 force some 2 update.
That set of students may suffer d backlash of this action but what is done is done.

three:
Some did not receive ANY formal or informal education simply because they disdain education in preference to power, ethnic / religious supremacy but are wielding enormous power and influence.

Basically a vicious circle. Those who have ruled (and are ruling) over this country DESPISE quality education and have RUTHLESSLY decimated and destroyed the educational system.

U couldn't have put it any better. They appreciate power not knowledge. And so the knowledge system has crumbled under their watch and no one is bothered.
