It’s an adage predicated on ethnic favouritism, meaning:

“ You do not leave your own child behind and go wear adornment on someone else’s child.”

They are hoping to exploit that archaic mindset to bamboozle Yorubas into supporting the greed-driven ambition of one age-cheating incontenence and Parkinson disease-suffering octogenarian drug-dealing thief.

I’ll take them seriously when they show me where I could get subsidized forex, and buy petrol, cooking gas and groceries cheaper just by virtue of my ethnicity.

What an excuse,so if they all go to a private university the public and students wont blame the government?

What's stopping FG from sacking them?

Not only by being producing nation's. Before naira can gain strength...see, it's all about demand and supply...wen u demand for foreign goods u demand for foreign currency to buy them,and when u supply local goods, the international buyer demands for ur domestic currency..but goods being associated with demand for currency is not always true

The demand and supply of local and. International currencies can be created also by by nation's that sell services more than goods.. example Cuba.. Cuba rent out alot of doctors to pandemic prone countries and reap large foreign currencies...

Switzerland using the secrecy banking system has attracted a whole lots of foreign capital capital to thier land eveen without exchanging goods....

So what we need do in general is create needs for supply of foreign currency into Naija at all cost....

Obj has the plans right but 8years wasn't enough for him.... He is still the best

The. Money doesn't have. To come from anywhere... The government only needs to fight inflation aand declining exchange rate values....

If the naira becomes stronger again.. prices of stuffs Weill fall aand ASUU won't demand salary increase...

The only person holding the naira from appreciating much is dangote.... If he succeeds, Naija will succeed... Always remember him in ur prayers

Hello seun,

Good afternoon. I created a thread as titled "Have you noticed this about the coming elections"

It was getting high engagement then suddenly it was deleted ? Is it because it was pointing to the obvious bias and tribalism against the southwest by the southwest

But you leave notorious tribalists on this forum who abuse the southeast daily?

You have never been one to be partisan and I hope that continues but pls indulge me and do explain why my thread was delete but violators like these are left to run amock? It sends a wrong message sir

udemzyudex:
Then the strike will continue with another government and the circle continues right?

FG will say there's no money but till today we don't know what they have been doing with Abacha loots, till today we don't know what happened to the recovered money from whistle blowing.

Someone stole #86b and nothing has been done about it,you think ASUU is a mumu , NASS have refuse to cut their budget,all they do is go on recess , come back and start shouting Say aye or nay.

You think ASUU is not seeing this? Of course they are,this is not the first time they are going on strike under this government.

Government has a fundamental duty to secure her people, educate her ppl, guide the health of her ppl, among others...

So if it goes quite high, the ppl will b mostly illiterate and human capacity will reduce and den economy will crumble

Most people don't understand how the university system works. Five of my colleagues who did their post grad abroad have refused to come back. I am on my way out to seek better opportunities. Lecturing in Nigeria is not worth it and it's a dream killer. 15 yrs going down the drain. I wish most students can afford the private university so they can all leave and graduate on time. It's quite unfortunate what everything has come to.

You think private university can afford them? Only few private university can afford them: Covenant, Landmark, American University etc. If they all migrate, it will still affect the public universities.

In the university system, there's what we call bottom and top heavy. Bottom heavy is situation where you have more junior academic staff than senior staff. While top heavy is the opposite. Now, if a department is bottom heavy, they will lose accreditation. Same applies when a department is top heavy. But for a department to get accreditation it's better that there is a balance between the two.

Why am I telling you all these? Some public universities don't have these talk more of private universities. Less I forget, for a department to be accredited, a professor or associate professor must be the HOD and it takes between 15 to 20 to produce a professor. Just imagine if they all decide to 'japa'. Imagine what will become of our university system. Your argument could be that we will provide the opportunity for younger ones to grow. So will mentor the younger ones if not the senior ones.

Your post remind me of one of my lecturers in 2013 at UNIPORT. After his sabbatical in Namibia, he refused to return to Nigeria. He left Nigeria as a senior lecturer, today he's now a professor over there in Namibia.

Your post equally reminds me of my friend that left for his post doctorate fellowship to Panama with a plan never to return to Nigeria. There are so many like that just waiting for the opportunity to leave this country.

You see so many Nigerians don't know what lecturers going through. We understand the fact there're some bad eggs among them. However, my emphasis is on the good ones. In Nigeria the only way you can be assured of promotion as academics is through publications.Unfortunately, the cost of publication in today's world has gone up.

First, you need to pay 5000 naira for your paper to appraised and accepted. Once your paper is accepted, you are still required to pay an additional 25,000 naira for publication. This is just for local journals. Foreign journals are usually far expensive than this. As an academics, you need to publish a minimum of three papers in year.

Let's not forget the fact that some of these lecturers are also students elsewhere ( as PG students). In the midst of all these, some have families to cater for.

How I wish many of them would understand. Quite a pity.

I never thought for a second that this hell bound calamitous simpleton is a human being,always think IT'S just a robot buh coming to what IT wrote,it shows that what sane people are saying here about all these Tinubu's urchins are truth because it's obvious that this THING is jobless,frustrated and depressed hence filled ITS heart with undiluted hate, unquenchable bitterness and demonic bile against a tribe that knows nothing about ITS existence,simple because one Igbo person did IT wrong in the past according to IT via it's only Igbos that wrong people,such a dunce and primitively deluded mentality ...tuah!!!
Keep on hating Igbos and Peter Obi buh just know that the hate is likely to push you to madness at the end if you fail to allow love and peace illuminate through that you darkest and soulless heart....
NB: I ain't gonna make your day with a response because I engage only human beings via you and your likes disgusts people so much here..
I rest my case...Gracias!!!!

When Govt stopped importation of rice what did Nigerians say especially the bigots?

Perhaps the CEO of NORD vehicles is a northern

Shayetet13:
When next is your monthly Tinubu stipend supposed to arrive. Today is 19th. Month end, right?

I can see you are working hard so they don't cut the already small amount

Shayetet13:
Your evidence is very weak and unintelligent...

I don't know what to make of it. You saw new monikers, so what methodological rigor did you use to reach the conclusion that they are majority?

The Biafra thing is a figment of your imagination.

blackboy:
Not true. I am in the know of of how the FG and Julius Berger delegation went to Asaba and Onitsha for commencement of the works . GEJ administration had drawing but also commenced it but did not finish it .
No be tollgate PMB and his people want to put on the bridge?

jchioma:
I don't know your intentions in all of these; perhaps you are gaining from the trouble going on in the south east who knows, but your post here conflicts with the image you posted. They are clearly blaming the army for the killing. Please for whatever it's worth, try to be objective in your reports.
