Even his own daughter had words for him.

Let that sink in for a moment

Now think this all ye supporters of the orangutan how do you possibly go against your own father in support of another person?

laudate:
Na God I take beg you, please free your mind.

OBJ merely repaid loans that Nigeria had taken from the World Bank and other international financial institutions. That was the mission Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala was paid to do and she was rewarded with a promotion at the World Bank! How did that increase Nigeria's standing, or the way the rest of the world viewed her citizens? During that period, I know how Nigerians were still being discriminated against at major international airports and foreign embassies here, simply because of their green passport, oh!

How much foreign direct investment was recorded under OBJ?

What was the level of infrastructure development recorded under OBJ?

Even the old Lagos Abeokuta Road leading to OBJ's farms remained an eyesore under OBJ's regime and it is still an eyesore till today, with its daily traffic nightmare and horrible craters called potholes.

All over the world, governments arrange financing and use it to deliver projects that can be seen by all and sundry. So please stop waxing lyrical or biblical, by comparing David and Solomon's era. Even the Bible records all the projects that David completed, during his tenure. Only the temple was not built, because God said "his hands had been stained by blood!" David did not lack the will, the strength, the vision or the ability to build it!

God when i read posts like these i cant help but believe there is yet hope for this country.

Might i interest you sir in a line of prayer sir?

God will continue to bless you even more than you expect. You see that source of knowledge and wisdom you have? It will lead you to sit before kings and gain favour before them.

As for that guy youre responding to...make i no talk.

Drsheddy:
Imo State Governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha, has ordered the striking civil servants to resume work immediately or risk being summarily sacked.

The Governor read the rio act while addressing some youths, who paid him a solidarity visit at the Government House, Owerri.

While accusing the workers of reneging on the recent agreement it freely entered with the state government, Governor Okorocha also described the current strike as “illegal and would not be tolerated next time”.

It was the considered opinion of the Governor that “the strike was politically motivated and principally aimed at rubbishing the good reputation of his administration”.
He wondered why civil servants should embark on strike “because of just months of unpaid salaries” owed by his administration.

Okorocha was particularly irked that no other state went on strike over non-payment of salaries, considering the economic meltdown facing the country.

“I do not know of any other state whose workers went on strike as a result of unpaid salaries. Imo workers treated me unjustly by embarking on the current industrial action”, Okorocha said.

Explaining why he took the decision to sack the striking workers if they fail to resume, the Governor said a lot of youths in the state are in need of employment.

Meanwhile, labour leaders in the state have advised civil servants to ignore the threat issued by the Governor, stressing that labour may completely shut down the state if government fail to pay their unpaid salaries.

Labour also ordered pensioners not to appear before any verification team set up by the state government, stressing this verification had been conducted several times by the present administration, without paying the pensions.

trapQ:
it is very glaring that pmb has Nigeria's best interest at heart. from reducing "his own" salary to refusing a fleet of new cars which would cost roughly 400m naira, to refusing a new privet jet. I mean, power generation is at an all time high at 4655mw(when Jonathan left, Nigeria's power generation was at an all time low at 1000+ MW).

all those calling him dullard are the ones who's fathers can't do half of what PMB is doing on a daily. if you aren't for change, kill yourself.

Oga abeg no vex o but do you have reference to anything i mean absolutely anything in the least bit no matter how small with reference please that shows where your idol dullardinus has done anything towards the said improvement of power supply?

One thing

Just one

No matter how small

You just come here cos you have keypad and data to type and insult peoples fathers without using the space between your ears.

Rubbish.

He reduced salary what about allowances and security vote?

Malazzy:
I hope you are in this earth with us. I really wonder why you would ever think that Buhari fixed our power issues in two months of which he has not been able to come up with a ministerial list. You are enjoying the legacies of the GEJ's administration. What you should be concerned with is the fact that it stands to reason that either an APC element who is working in the power sector has been sabotaging GEJ's effort in revitalizing the power sector. No wonder we had very erratic power supply close to the elections and just before hand over, the power supply surprisingly improved. I really hope that most Nigerians should start seeing beyond their nose!

God bless you immensely for this sir!

...immensely

freeslash:
Sorry to ask what did he do in electricity. Did he buy transformers or did he upgrade grids.
President Jonathan promised steady power supply and put structures in place. The Northerner and people from SW sabotaged it and now power supply is growing gradually. Tell me one thing Buhari has done to the power sector. Aside probing what good has Buhari done, name one.

Answer: He gave his grandchild polio vaccine on channels tv na.

Oh ok that was after 1year of no polio case in Nigeria.

Guess the correct answer is nothing

Absolutely nothing!

Which APC thoughts, actions (& inactions) or words can be justified?

hary4luv:
@gurgle my boss is married, but d issue is dat I enjoy a very cordial relatnshyp with my boss b4 now. He kinda avoids me and feels uncomfortable whenever am around (atleast that's what I've deduced). as for sacking me I think he won't be that stupid except he wants me to spill it!

You're not so intelligent are you?
So you think he won't have a good reason before he fires you? Of course he knows this would be your next line of action. Just wait till you do one small fvck up then he fires you how you now want to use this as justification of really like to see.

You heard sound you went to look, na you be security for the office?

But he continued allowing their cut off marks in exams remain very low.
There must be reason for that.
GEJ don leave yet some people will not free him. Withdrawal symptoms or what do we call this?

ebuksy:
I think you are officially the silliest person on Nairaland. I was wondering why you were reasoning like a toddler. It is very clear to me now. Your parents didnt afford you the opportunity to go to school. School is not just about western education. Morals are taught there too.

Success means different things to different people. So many people find satisfaction and fulfillment in their work. Talk about engineers, doctors, lecturers etc. They lead happy lives. People that finish with good grades work with the best companies in the world, proffer solutions to problems in the society and move up the ladder to become CEOs and MDs and they live a fulfilled life, not forgetting to mention that they become affluent too. Some also set up their own businesses in the process.

On the other hand, all the "third-class" and "pass" graduates i know are presently wishing they came out with better grades. They are finding life very difficult at the moment.

If I may ask, what company have you set up? Tell me how you have impacted the society. Tell me the name of your company, what you do and the number of people you have employed, since you believe that people that illiterates like you/people that graduate with poor grades birth companies and impact positively on the society. AND PLEASE TELL ME YOUR COMPANY IS ONE OF THE FIRST 100 BIGGEST COMPANIES IN THE WORLD

You just had to bring in my parents into this didn't you?

You didn't graduate first class o. The person you're fighting for is not you or your father or mother but somehow you had to bring my parents into this abi?

Ok

No problem

Tonylyte:
Hahahaha, if it was jonathans regime hell would have been let loose by the ''progressives'' reminds me of the scenerio where ''gej was not allowed to speak in pa mandela's burial in south africa'' comes to play. The same obama that D3 spent billions of naira to visit is touring ''small'' countries at the expense of u.s govt. Now Gej and D3 who is better if u were asked??

*I'm laughing already cos of the answer I'll get ahswear* at the expense of not sounding like a soji guy please what does D3 mean?

I'm laughing already I swear to God

You need to change your approach to life. I did not even want to respond to you at first. Stop envying others. Be happy when people around you succeed. Hate will not get you anywhere.

You dared me to mention any first class graduate that owns a company or has impacted positively on the society. One of such people is Jarus. He is an active nairalander. He graduated with a first class in OAU and he has impacted so many lives and I am quite sure he is leading a good life.

I know the advice you will give to your children is to make sure they graduate with poor grades, or you might not even deem it fit to send them to school in the first place.

Hatred will only choke and stunt your growth.

Get a life!

Uhm ok I'm looking at too 100 companies and your dudes companies name is not making the list so what's your basis? Never even heard of it before now, please what do they do?

Furthermore only one example?

I know how your emotions are taking control of you right now & intellect is sent to the aft, but you need to calm down, read, understand before you rush to press keypad because you have data running on your device.

Now go back to my post & read it again.

This time S-L-O-W-L-Y I don't care how smart you've been deceived to be. You clearly have issues with understanding

I think he needs to get a life!. He is probably a third class graduate living a frustrated life. It is written all over his comment. I was annoyed with the topic of that foolish post. Who is he to determine who becomes "somebody in life"? Even Bill Gates said “Although I dropped out of college and got lucky pursuing a career in software, getting a degree is a much surer path to success. College graduates are more likely to find a rewarding job, earn higher income, and even, evidence shows, live healthier lives than if they didn’t have degrees,”

Your assumptions about me flatter me. Unfortunately never even got any higher education stopped at kindergarten so even third class is a super advancement for my present level.

There does that assist with your erectile dysfunction? Is it standing well now?

Now let me help your egotiscally pervesely sorry excuse of what you assume is a life.

Get a copy of Forbes.Read 100 richest then come back to justify your claim.

That's one.

Secondly ... why am I even talking to this waste of space. So you had to get Bill gates to justify your claim? No first class graduate? Dude if you ever find yourself if court don't try to defend yourself, you'll just be working for the lawyer for free.
This is part of the type of thing we're talking about here.

soe:
There is a general misconception to what success is.

From a general perspective, success is measured y how much money, power and fun you can gather in life.

But, if that is the definition of success, you will be wrong to expect most first class graduates to pursue that dream. You will therefore be right to say First Class graduates are not that successful in the real life.

Now, switch to the perspective of a first class grad.

The first ingredient to securing a first class is to agree that Life is beyond catching fun, lavishing wealth and wielding power. Most first class students hardly push for those things, both in school and outside.

What drives the motivation of any first class student and gives him/her pleasure is the wonder of being able to handle what colleagues see as problem and trash it out completely. What makes them smile is being able to understand complex realities that colleagues consider as "over syllabus".

The same way the rich,social,famous and truancy students chase them in class to help with solving that crazy assingment is the same way the rich,famous,business owners will chase them as consultants in their firms.

The pride of first class grads is not primarily in making money....cos that in itself...is the meaning of "first class"

Completely agree with you on this.

Then again that depends on the environment the first class is coming from.

You get me a first class student from a school like the UK. I'll photocopy this your assertion on him (or her). Have you met with a first class student from Nigeria? as in really interacted with them? Now please don't get me wrong I'm not saying all of them but the average one of them. Outside the theories they read how many can actually profer solutions to problems like you rightly highlighted?

The schools here are not designed to make them think. Cram the text come to the exam pour it in the script doesn't I repeat doesn't in anyway fit into the blueprint you wrote above.

I had one who claimed he graduated first class & couldn't even string his comprehension of English properly.

Cram well pour in the exam get first class gets a job...fades into obscurity cos life after school goes beyond theory.

You underestimate the value & importance of relationships in the process of finding solutions to issues...think this particular bit through again.

That you haven't seen doesn't make it so. please modify Just in case you probably haven't taken time to study your role model here his positions were appointments. As a minister I'm sure you know how that plays out in Nigeria or are all our ministers first class graduates?

u sef.....shey u don run company?........most companies employs 2:1 and above and d company dey move.....whether u like it or nt ur academic performance in school says much about how well u will function in a company

That's what you're trained to believe fact is you see most of those guys who don't do so well in school? They socialise more, thereby establishing relationships. Those relationships turn into the contacts you need to get the job done.

I'm not ruling out entirely on good grades trust me I've seen the power of relationships & what contacts can do.

Let me give you live example

NYSC corps member with a pharmaceutical a while back nothing spectacular about her grades.
Clinches a deal with a major hospital for the company. She gets official car + driver whilst still serving for this.

No be she graduate best in her class o

===========================================

Another case study
Manager in telecoms firm, driving with her in her GL sees her class rep from school, Negro was strolling down the opposite direction with folder in his hand. You sabi as class rep grade dey be for school. She goes " that basta7d used to be my class rep in school, what happened to him?" This was years after their graduation. I don't know the scenario between them in school then I do know I prefered chilling in the air conditioned merc with her at that point. Go figure

SAVEDBABA:
u sef.....shey u don run company?........most companies employs 2:1 and above and d company dey move.....whether u like it or nt ur academic performance in school says much about how well u will function in a company.......if u like argue it wont change d fact

Sorry about that.

Truth is unless you have some form of evidence to back your claim its your word against his and it seems he's got the upper hand in this case.

Have you tried appealing to him?

datigbogirl:
Hello guys, I was implicated by my LGI who lied that I absconded from service despite him telling me to write a letter that I'm leaving which I wrote & gave to him.

I went for Camp, was granted leave for December which I was paid, worked for January and mid-way February and was paid before I left for the USA for international exams. Now I'm back and was told I was remobilized to Enugu to start afesh and will pay back the months I worked.

I'm a Medical Doctor by Profession and I want to know what else I should be looking forward to apart from these.

Now you've learnt your first lesson in business. Next time you drop an official letter always have an acknowledgement copy.

Imagine just one sheet of paper could have done in this situation?
