There’s a high chance Hush is already dead |
This was an interview done on Top sport on Top Radio yesterday. It was a friendly chat. Why is Punch claiming it? Plus what’s the motive of the story with that headline because more pertinent things were discussed? |
Unserious policy from the govt. There’s unofficial behind the scenes recruitment going on as we speak in about half of the MDAs. Why do we keep deceiving ourselves. This is another politically motivated policy rather than economic. It’s so obvious |
A million dollars |
Absolutely spot on. Nigerians are not students of history. They live in the euphoria of utopia when in truth, it is obvious the country has been programmed to fail. My mom told me about the Buhari military regime and not a good thing was said. Confirmed her words from my own research and I was shocked to see people canvassing support for the clueless general. It is a sad thing to note that all those immortalized on our currency are truly villains rather than heros. Big question of the day: Do I really know my history? |
For those that have written their tests, did you get your score immediately or something that suggested you did it. I ran down my time and was unable to submit and it’s telling me “either token has expired or invalid or your test is in the future” |
Oggolden001:Civil engineers are not designers. They don’t design anything. They build. An architect can design bridges even though he has to work with a structural engineer during the design process to make the design functional. No good architect will allow a structural engineer change his design. That’s why architects are taught at least the basic principles of structures in school. In developed countries, specialized architects design cars. Civil engineers can design based on experience of building construction even though this is not their job. In Nigeria, as the contractor, there’s more money to be made in the construction phase than the design phase. As you can read from different comments above, there’s an overlay of duties by these two professions. But standard practice is an architect is a designer while a civil engineer is a builder. So most likely a civil engineer can design a functional duplex and nothing more, an architect can do structural detailing for a duplex and nothing more. Both are pretty specialized fields. I studied architecture because it was hard and I was academically sound plus I didn’t want to read. I got it all wrong. This is 2021, don’t be caught up in this trap. Find a less competitive and stressful course especially if you want to partake in extra curricular activity in school. Doesn’t have to be the conventional courses everyone is doing. Don’t waste 4/5 years in school only to finish school and start looking for where you can learn a skill to survive. Study a course that gives you that flexibility |
DEADALIVE:I said standard practice. Please always read in context |
DEADALIVE:An architect is the head of a design team. He can also act as the project manager or the contractor. This is standard practice. But this is Nigeria |
I’m an architect and I will tell you for a fact that architecture in Nigeria is getting useless. Same with most professional courses. The stress and money spent in school is in no way equivalent to the rewards or benefit. If you’re studying architecture, it should solely be out of passion Cos that might be the only thing keeping you going. On which course is better to study, traditionally, both courses are good. If you like to delve more into construction and structural detailing, pls go for civil engineering. If you want your core to be designing, architecture best suits you. Don’t get deceived, there are a lot architects and poor engineers. Don’t be deceive that you can work on your own in this industry. It’s possible but you have to pay your dues. All in all, in Nigeria you’ll need God and connection. My advice, study a course you have passion in and wouldn’t stress you. It doesn’t necessarily have to be any the above two. |
fabregas04:T.B. Joshua is from Agbaluku while Gani Adams is from Ayase both streets in Arigido-Akoko |
Hi everyone, do you still need proof of funds after getting a full scholarship? |
Ideadoctor:Pls explain the reincarnation |
Ideadoctor:Nice post. Quick question! What’s the implication (spiritual or otherwise) of people confusing you with another person? They are so convinced it’s you they saw some days ago at a distant location and you have never met them. And this happens frequently. It’s like there’s a body double in numerous locations |

Stay strong for your mom. Encourage her and give her hope. Also advice her to leave the abusive relationship. Don’t force her but pressure her. Some of our old folks can’t take the right decision and it is our duty to guide them. |
This only happens when you’re close to waking up. Once you know your dream is a dream, at that moment you’re semi-conscious |
tellwisdom:Report has been done. Called some police contacts but it’s all the same thing. Reality is setting that I’ve lost important documents |
Apparently there’s no way with the police. Telling me it will take 2 weeks before they can track it because they expect the thief to have sold it by then and I’ll have to pay 80k for tracking |
How can I get the bag? I honestly don’t know where the thief went |
AJOBI77:I’ve stopped the accounts from debit transactions. On my way to the police station. Can police track phone ASAP? |
What can be done??!!!!! |
How can I get my phone(Android),documents and keys back. My number is already switched off. This happened about 6:30am |
iExplore:They’ve gotten away. It was a bike man and there was no bike around to pursue him |
My bag was just snatched along Lagos/Badagry expressway due to the absence of law enforcement on the road. What can be done? All my documents are in the bag |
smokey12345:Very apt |
yosmen:This one is worse than roadside. An experienced draughtsman or a student architect wouldn’t do such. This is an eye sore. There’s nothing that can be amended in this ‘design’. It will just give one headache. Arrangement and modular coordination is so so bad. Op if it’s possible collect your half payment from the guy. |
nannymcphee:Are you sure? This your ‘architect’ doesn’t know anything oo. Get a good architect |
