₦airaland Forum

Sometimes I wonder about the thought process of some Nairalanders, these leaders deserve commendation and not insults, most of them were at the ages of NLanders with very limited exposures yet they did what they did. Everything was going good before the military coup of 1966 and that was the beginning of the end. The west in particular had development plans for every 5yrs up to the 1st 25yrs after Independence. When Awolowo got to federal with Gowon he developed same plan for Nigeria, but around 1970, after the war he observed the military govt no longer keen on the plan anymore. that was the main reason he gave for pulling out of the govt.

Wow, this was the same guy that brought Babangida to him knees in the 80s when he was ASUU chairman, he refused to call of strike despite all threats from IBB. Lets see how, IBB would sneak Aso rock now. There may be hope for Naija afterall.

^^^^What the creation of Isreal did is similar to Yorubas going back Egppt or East as history claimed that they were from there and told the present dwellers to move away to nowhere, do you think that would happen without resistance?

I will suggest you go there with open mind and confidence. Getting info and attempting to second guess interviewers can be counter productive sometimes you may give interviewer the impression of being fake or desperate.

I will suggest you read your CV very well and be ready to defend any issues that may come out of it. Answer only questions put to you and do that concisely and without perambulation, if you don't know, say so, since they may take you up on your response. best of luck.

^^^^^^lol, they do give jobs, but they want the right guys to get it, Total is the best coy to work for in Naija of today in terms of everything.

^^^^^ they said he poured hot ashes on the woman a symbol of inflicting someone with leprosy in Akure tradition. That in itself is a criminal act, like acid attack. The king should be arrested and prosecuted as required. Kings have have demoted, banished, arrested even jailed in Nigeria this should not be exception.
