Travel / Re: Japa Or Stay In Nigeria by Rhyzer: 9:28pm On Jan 15 |
Make the transition easy for yourself. Send your wife for school over there. When she's done and get permanent residency maybe within 2 years of graduation, you got better ideas then and see better. And if you decide to go to school then in Canada, your tuition is reduced by a factor of 3-4. Its a good move, let your wife do that for now and you won't regret it over time but its an uphill task. Mind you, your 15m is not enough, you need to arrange for more eventually. 2 Likes |

Education / Re: Steps For Nigerian Students To Access Loan Scheme by Rhyzer: 1:17am On Jun 13, 2023 |
There should be a repayment plan option of if everything fails, you can continue your NYSC service year in a business or services run and supported by NYSC till you pay it up, maybe 3 years while you still get stipends. If you run a farm biz for example under NYSC program and reasonable revenue is guaranteed, such graduate can decide to continue such business as an entrepreneur with no more need to apply for jobs. I hope they amend the laws to include something like this and guarantors may have some rest of mind. |

Travel / Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Rhyzer: 1:35pm On Sep 18, 2020 |
Anon123: Thanks for your response. Masters is not the focus now. What I applied for is B. Eng program. Normally lakehead accepts canadian college engineering technology program to year 3 of B. Eng program but failed to recognise an international certificate. Are there other schools in Canada running such programmes. Its like a two years HND to B. Eng program. On the PGD, please let me know school accepting HND for PGds. That may help out as well. Is PGD certificate holder eligible to register with their provincial engineering body as an Engineer. Thank you so much for your help and time |

I was rejected because of this and I don't ṣe myself spending another four years on this. Any useful tips or information is highly appreciated. Thanks |

Politics / Re: 17 Chinese Illegal Miners: FG Mounts Pressure On Osun To Surrender Suspects by Rhyzer: 5:49pm On May 25, 2020 |
The questions one should be asking is this. If foreigner can come and mine our resources with no much capital and less than 20 of them. What is the federal government requirements to allow Nigerians to do the same. When they arrive, they use our people for all those operation. FG should make the terms public so that Nigerian could invest in it, provide job for the people and also forex for the Nation. it is available at competitive price here and not available for their use over there. Let us do our mining and sell to them. FG should help the poor masses. |

Very disrespectful young man in a backward society, allowing Chief Dr Professor BILL GATES to stand in queue behind him. The boy lacks HOME TRAINING. Who is his mother? He is even looking at his phone and BILL... Dollar BILL Gates, Chief Dr Alhaji Otunba, Ezeugo Olorogun Professor Bill Gates, the Agbada 1 of America, The Olumo Rock of the Universe, is standing behind him in line and he cannot leave the queue and tell Bill Gates to go to his front? What is wrong with this world today? He is even wearing face cap like that stupid boy that refused to let Soyinka sit in peace on his flight just because Soyinka sat on the boy's seat. Where is Buhari? He must call Trump and they must BAN BASE BALL CAP. It makes young men disrespectful.

Career / Re: Travelling To Canada And Starting A Pure Water Business In Nigeria. by Rhyzer: 2:56pm On Jun 02, 2018 |
My best advice is this. Use the money to process the Canadian school stuff. Get your admission and go. When you are in Canada, the essential money you need to survive is your tuition, you are allowed to work up to 20hrs a week which will take care of your cost of living and you've hard working in Nigeria and you'll survive and could do better. Work on getting the pure water factory running with aids of people who are reliable if you work out a structure on that. If this option doesn't work out right, the rest of the fund with you can be used to start vehicle import to Nigeria while you are in Canada. They come up cheap when you buy from individual and how much you bargain. And this will never disturb your studies or any other thing you need doing while schooling. If you are coming to school in Canada, make sure you go with your driver's license as old as possible. 2 Likes |
Education / How Africa Can Use It's Traditional Knowledge To Make Progress by Rhyzer: 11:02am On Oct 19, 2017 |
The prostate is a walnut-shaped gland located at the base of the bladder." he said. You hear these kinda things in med school and you get more confused than you were before the class began. How exactly is a walnut shaped? What is a walnut even? Is it the name of a motorcycle part? So, you begin the gruelling process of finding out what a walnut is, then how it is shaped, then comparing it to the pictures of the prostate you find in your atlas. Or this one: "The typical caput medusae appearance of portal hypertension on the abdomen.." What on earth is caput medusae? Is it a new Latin prayer? This one annoyed me like what-are-you-talking-about: "The Anchovy sauce appearance of the pus of amoebic liver abscess.." Please, gini bu Anchovy sauce? What does it look like? * Ladies and gentlemen, our topic today is "What on earth is Anchovy sauce? The bane of lingering western influence on African education." Permit me to begin by stating very clearly that education should never be a remote, distant concept; something you have to stretch so hard to reach. But, if you were educated in Africa, I say with every authority in my lungs that that was your experience. Your education was difficult. You started by learning that A is for Apple. Apple. A fruit that is not indigenous to your environment. So, before the influx of Apple importation into say Nigeria, you had no idea what an apple looked like, except from your colour books. So, you were socialised into associating education with something remote, something that was brought to you, something you do not own, could not lay claim to, could not understand, except by the kind gestures of the people who brought it to you. As a child, orange was coloured green. Yes, Nigerian orange is green, or at most yellow. How something that is obviously green was associated with a different colour, confused me. I mean, the fruit orange is green. Of that bit I am sure. How does the colour orange differ from the fruit orange? Are they not meant to be related? Friends, I remained confused till I came to England couple of years ago. That was when I realised that oyibo orange is indeed orange �. So, education for me was what the white man brought. Not what I could own as part of my history and heritage. In medical school, it became worse. You pick a textbook of Anatomy and spend six hours on one page. I am not joking. Ask any medic around you. Last's anatomy makes you wonder what is wrong with you. The concepts are so foreign, so distant, so western. But you must learn them, unless you wanna fail. Ladies and gentlemen, I dare say that this is a huge part of what is wrong with African education. We typically do not bring the concepts home. What is the African word for Kilowatts? Any language at all? This, people of God, influences the way we see ourselves on the global stage. We blend, we do not engage. We agree, we do not argue. Because, "Oyibo knows better". This vestige of colonisation has to be seriously looked into and in fact, done away with. "I'm so scared." my friend said to me when we attended a world conference couple of years ago. "How do you do it, Confidence? You are so bold and self-assured. I can't even speak. I feel I will say something stupid." Sad. Isn't it? Perhaps the intimidation we feel when we sit at international conference tables would have been non-existent if we were told at kindergarten that A is for Akamu, or Akpu or Agidi; if we were taught to own our own education, and not merely see it as a white man's idea. Perhaps, I would have found medical school less traumatic, had I been taught that the prostrate is shaped like two Udara seeds conjoined in the middle. (I got to see a Walnut for the first time couple of years ago). Caput medusae would have been fine if I was told the Greek mythology behind the name. How Medusa's hair turned into snakes when she opened Pandora's box and the rest of it. But, I will never forgive the Anchovy sauce. My professor should have just told me that the pus of amoebic liver abscess has the appearance of burnt Gbegiri. As for my little girl, A is for Ada. I have no idea whether Apple is still a fruit or a device. They keep changing these things. Thank you for reading. ||Inspired by Chika Ezeanya-Esiobu|| |
