WHAT A LOAD OF RUBBISH

This is how you dumb goats end up in slavery in Libya.

UAE is not rich today because they have ''incorruptible leaders''. THAT'S A LAUGH.

Go to Millionaires Row in London, and places like Beverley Hills and Monaco, and see how much billions of dollars oil sheikhs from the UAE, Saudi, Kuwait etc, have siphoned from their countries to enrich themselves and live like kings.

The ONLY THING that saves them from popular revolt is the vast oil reserves they hold, much larger than Nigeria's - plus the TINY population they have in their countries. UAE for instance has less than 10 million people, with 3 times Nigeria's oil and gas.

So they can afford to loot the oil revenues while still keeping their populations happy.

So kindly USE YOUR HEAD next time before posting ignorant rubbish online.

True.

The superfluous waste of wealth in the gulf states is disgusting.
Their saving grace is that their population compared to their astonishing oil wealth is very small.
They can afford to waste so much and still have enough to go round as surplus.

A real Niger delta country if there ever will be one.

Excuzeme:
It is not too late, let him contest in 2023, afterall, it is his civic right..... and let us see how popular he really is.
Infact, let him start with Governor of Ogun state and l can assure you he will not win his ward sef.
All these people without electoral value who think they are somebori sef

He can't run in 2023 though.
It is not the turn of his region for now.

If he runs he will fail.

But the people with so called electoral value are the ones that have crippled the destiny of this country.
It shows the poor quality of the Nigerian voters.

Oyedepo is a man of intellect.

When did covenant university Start that it has already assumed a zenith in Nigeria?
It is a product of administrative competence.

If oyedepo runs for president, I would vote for him.
At least he can properly marshal our resources effectively.

sonnie10:
How come they are getting ready from the same location. Isn’t the woman supposed to be in her family’s house while the man comes to meet them from his own house? Except they have arrived already. But who get time to tie gele when party is going on.

Guy, you funny.

Couple wey Don do everything finish before wedding day.
What is the formality for again?

ETHIX:
Lagos state of all state is not willing to pay the minimum wage.



Ambode rushed to Buhari that he cannot pay the minimum wage.


Now that Sanwolu will take over let's see how it goes

I hear they make over 1 billion as IGR every month , yet we don't know where the money is going to.
Probably feeding the fat bellies of some highly corrupt eko strongmen.

So much money, so much debt, very little impact.

Rivers will pay whatever is prescribed as minimum wage.

Too much money. Then why wait for the law before making the lives of your people better?

The report did not say that they are criminals, but that they are Nigerians.


And I know three Ghanaians working in Nigeria.
Two of them teach French and biology and none of them pay tax.

TheEminentLaity:
Fine and good, it's your opinion so I can't knock you but universities are different, someone graduating with a first in the best UK universities could well repeat that anywhere else in the world and that includes the top schools in the US. What you seem to undermine is the focus, perseverance and dedication towards achieving a first in any decent university. Give her her props, she isn't the only one that studied there.

I am not speaking in absolute terms. Of course anybody can excel in the UK and in the US too.
I didn't dispute that.

But the fact still stands. British education is one of the easiest in the developed world, much easier than the United States.

TheEminentLaity:
From perception or personal experience?

From the experience of a few of my lecturers and friends.

TheEminentLaity:
Do you speak from experience when you feel that getting a first in UK is easier than in the US?

Academic excellence in the US is harder. Significantly harder than the UK.

Especially in STEM.

UNBELIEVABLE:
The Lady's Mum tried first to downgrade Covenant University while comparing it with University of Wales.
We should learn to see what someone is actually saying.

Thank you very much.

I thought I was the only one here who actually understood what the woman was trying to do.

She wants others to respect her daughter's achievement, but tried to downplay the quality of her peers in Nigeria who achieved the same thing but with twice the effort.

poseidon12:
Big fat lie, obviously. Someone who is able to get a First Class will definitely acknowledge that it was tough. You must have denied yourself a lot to be able to make it. I very much doubt that RTSC has been through a University or even tried the JAMB.

A First Class in Nigeria is tough, much tougher even. That is the point I am making.
Comprehend before quoting me.

GavelSlam:
Better odds or better facilities?

A First is not as you've made it out to be.

Your First would be comparable with theirs.

I think the reason why they have better odds is generally the behaviour of the human factor there.
Their lecturing staffs and management.

They have nothing to prove. They do not want to drain you of every ounce of energy for every mark you get, unlike what obtains in Nigeria

Not matter how advanced the facilities, if the lecturers are as hardened as the ones we have in Nigeria, there is nothing you can do.

poseidon12:
Typical Nigerian mindset. A First Class is very difficult to get from any decent University, whether it is Nigeria or abroad.

First Class is not easy. It requires above average dedication.

The difficulty in getting it differs in different parts of the world.

Is it a good or bad thing? That is a different argument entirely.

GavelSlam:
Thanks for the stats.

Now apply the same principle to any course in the UK.

The UK has much better odds. You can't deny that.

It's not a bad thing though. I can't pay all that money and not come out with a decent result with minimal stress.

GavelSlam:
Most chemical engineers I know made a First.

Appears it's commonplace.

lol.
The ones you know may be skewing the statistics somewhat.

My set had 4 first-class to over 50 students. And that was the best set in more than a decade.

It is mostly one or two in an average of 50-70 students in every class set.

And I am sure it won't be so different in most schools.

GavelSlam:
Little wonder.

And now I am lost.

germanized:
What a bad belly! Pls did you graduate with a first class? Some of you haven't even seen the 4 walls of a university yet you try to downgrade someone's achievement.

Being able to graduate at all is no beans, especially if you didn't attend a school where you can do copy and paste... First class is never a cheap thing, hence the term first class! It takes so much consistency and the error range is so slim. Even in a plane, you pay triple the amount to be in first class, talk less of graduating with first class at a university.

I didn't say it was a cheap thing.
I called out the woman for trying to cheapen Nigerian education.
But it is okay, since you misunderstood me.

Clap for yourself.

GavelSlam:
What did you study?

you wan give me work?

I be chemical engineer o.

AreaFada2:
At least in UK we can be sure the lady did not get her first class for sleeping with Nigerian lecturers.

People forget the extra motivation to succeed people have when you leave all family and friends behind to go succeed in another country.

Your mentality has to change as you are on your own. You either buckle up or fall behind. Nobody to help you in any way. Unless you have earned the right to govt assistance over time.

No accredited university in Nigeria will give you a First Class for sleeping with lecturers.

It is earned through tears, sweat and blood.

GavelSlam:
Of course.

This is not the First time I have said so on nairaland, but I understand your scepticism.

GavelSlam:
You don't want to get a first?

I already have a First from Nigeria.

seguntijan:
As far as fashion and entertainment is concerned, If it's not unilag then it can't be any other school.

It's because it's in Lagos , which is the centre of fashion in Nigeria.

It's not because unilag is this or that. It's because unilag is in Lagos.

VonScott:
overpopulation to resources ratio and other bullsh1t.

The problem is that we have very low quality human beings that keep producing even lower quality trash at alarming rates too.
That's why we have kleptocrats running govt, 20,000 underage edo prostitutes in Mali (for that matter), flat.heads running drugs like its going out of fashion, crossing Libya to europe, boko haram, herdsmen, NPF and SARS....

Then we way our society celebrates ill gotten wealth...#spits

who did dis to US.

While the cone heads which you are, are saints whose fart smell like roses.

Nice.

IdreamOfUnicorn:
Yoruba and igbo.
One love.

They have broken up though as usual.

xyz123456:
All this UK school, na naija money dey wan chop....

I dey tell you.
They are looking for tuition fees while they pour out the First Class degrees.

And so? If na America now, I for agree with her sentiment small.

Anybody can get a First Class in the UK including many students currently enrolled at covenant.

If ini umotong can get a first-class in economics while playing professional football, anybody can get it.

So madam, your daughter is not special. She is just not what covenant needed at that point in time.

Poverty of the mind.

See as she be like star fish.

Eww.

Why the arrest?
Why can't these people copy the job creation initiatives of other countries that they visit regularly?
