Evans Bipi cannot deliver Sim in Ogu Bolo and Okrika. Evans Bipi Influence is limited to Ogu. Beside, the person that is aspiring for House of Reps for Okrika/Ogu Bolo under APC is very popular. If the likes of Abiye Sekibo and George Sekibo partner together it will be dry vote for Sim.

Beside Okrika has always been carry go for PDP. But this time around it won't be uhuru for the PDP. Okrika people are not happy with the way Wike shelved mama peace aside.

In my ward of Port Harcourt, the votes will be shared amongst APC, SDP, Accord and PDP. I know PDP will resort to vote buying. Sim isn't popular. Beside, the perception out there ís that Sim is Wike's third term project. Rivers people are enlightened and detest a servitude.

I have heard wike's side of the story
True, True wetin Abiye sekibo do no good.
As for sen. George sekibo, he wanted to contest for governorship but wike withheld the forms and frustrated their ambition even Farah so that SIM will emerge as the PDP candidate.
senator sekibo have been silent since then.

The only constant in life is change. This is still up for debate though because change in itself is still susceptible to varying degrees of further changes.

Never giving up is the key.

I love the quote below which has been my mantra and outlook to life. It has helped me immensely in navigating the murky waters of what we call life without an ounce of self-pity or buckling to pressure.

“We are born with nothing. Why be scared of starting all over again?” Tang asked rhetorically in a recent interview. “We have to keep learning to face difficulties calmly and to march ahead with courage.”

so motivating

Nairaland777:
My story is a very interesting and long story. Please get a comfortable place to sit with popcorn and probably juice. Don't forget your thinking cap, this would make you think, hopefully.

It all started in junior secondary school 2(jss2), I have always performed averagely or even less than average in school, because I don't read. I never knew one was supposed to read and no one told me to read. So I kept performing averagely from primary school to jss2. My school was changed when I was in jss2 and this school rewarded scholarship to the best overall student(no school fees will be paid by the student), let me say this motivated me to want to come out as the best student.

It so happened that I actually started reading, although I never read a topic more than once in secondary school, I hated reading, it was boring to me, it wasn't mentally engaging to me. But I read for the sake of fulfilling all righteousness, most things I read only once and my reading was very slow. This was because I wanted to understand the topic fully on first reading, so I wouldn't need to read it again in the future, and I usually listen in class and ask challenging questions that made my teachers think. I always remember their explanation, plus what I read myself. That was coupled with the fact that I was a logical thinker, any question that was asked in exam, I always had an idea of the answer, and I do cook up answers based on my understanding of the topic and my ingenuity.

Since I started reading, I have been coming out as 2nd overall best student in all the schools I went to . I attended two secondary schools and I always came out as among the top 3 best students in school. What's surprising was how relaxed I was with reading, I don't read much(I didn't even like reading) and I still came out as top 3 best students. If I was less lazy and more serious with my reading, I would have come out as number 1. There was something about myself that I remember, instead of cramming fomulars in maths, physics and chemistry, I questioned those formulas, and derived the fomulas myself through logical thinking. So in exams, if I was asked a question that requires the use of formulars, I just derive the formula myself right there in the exam hall. I remembered a time I created an equation and told my math teacher to help me solve it, cos I have been trying to solve it myself without success. X² - 4 = 36x , yes I still remember the equation after 15 years of creating it. My math teacher was frustrated with the question, she asked me where I got the question from, I told her it was from my head, she got mad at me, becaus she has been trying to solve it mathematically for days without success, and I was the talk of the entire school.

I later left the school (in ss1) because the best teachers of the school weren't paid well and had resigned, I was the time keeper then, because I always come very early to school. When I got to another school in ss1, I was taken to "A" class because of my performance. The student that used to come out as best student, was so scared of me, and he had to be reading more than before, anyway, I performed better than he did in all the tests we did in SS2 and the owner of the school called to see me, being the first person to beat him. Anyway he still came out as best student and we are friends till now.

I remember how further mathematics was one of my best subject, calculus was my favourite topic in math. I usually play with calculus, experimenting with it, trying to create new formulas using calculus and algebra. I was also able to understand how formulas were derived. There was a time I even proved the formular for the volume of a sphere using integration in calculus and algebra. I was so excited to be able to prove the formula to be correct without being taught how to do this, it was beyond the scope of our further maths textbook. I felt so proud of myself, and imagined Albert Einstein tapping my back, saying "good boy". It has always been my dream to make a new discovery that would revolutionise the scientific world. One that I would be remembered for after my death. I didn't want to be like just another person that existed and died and was forgotten. I was obsessed with maths, if I wasn't doing anything, I would be found solving maths, trying to discover new mathematical principles, I was full of dreams and imagination, I was a very happy and motivated kid, because I was utilizing my talents and appreciated for it.

Anyway I did Waec in 2012 and ended up coming out with distinction (A1) in mathematics, further maths, economics, physics and chemistry. The worst result I had was B3(in English). I still have some of my school results with me. I wasn't sure of the university to select, so I went for a private university in Nigeria, because my dad could afford it. I wanted to pick computer science because I felt it would involve me thinking and would utilize my mathematical and scientific skills. That was the closest to what I wanted for myself. I would have chosen robotics and artificial intelligence but I didn't see any university that was offering such a course. Anyway my dad discouraged me from picking computer science because there was no guarantee of a job with a computer science degree. So I was told to pick medicine and surgery as most parents would want for their children in science to pick. I remember how I tried to convince my dad to allow me pick computer science because it will utilise my talents better, that medicine and surgery would just demand me to cram stuffs and pass exams. I didn't just want to know stuffs, I wanted to understand how stuffs were arrived at. For instance I didn't just want to know the drugs for treating malaria, I wanted to know how they discovered the drugs, what was the logic behind the drug structure and how it worked in treating malaria. Not just craming the name of the drug and the formulation, but how exactly does the drug work and discovering more drugs for malaria. I was a natural scientist and medicine and surgery didn't stimulate me mentally. The only topics that made me happy in medical school was physiology. You hardly need to cram anything in physiology, just understand all the concepts and you are good to go. I was really good in physiology because it was explanatory. Anyway I struggled throughout my preclinicals days in medical school. Trying to put things into my memory mindlessly. I ended up passing all anyway, but I wasn't enjoying it at all, I wasn't challenged mentally. My performance was average because I didn't give it my all, as the interest was never there, but it was good enough for me to pass, I hated "good enough", I wanted to be the best at whatever I did, I wanted to be exceptional. Although I loved genetics then, because it was challenging and had a lot to be discovered in it. I dreamt of being a geneticist then, because I would be able to experiment with genes and create hybrids of animals and discover something new. I also loved psychology, because it was interesting to study how humans think, why we think the way we do, and what made us think the way we do. I would always read psychological topics online, my Myers Briggs personality is INTP(the logician). It was fascinating to me. I later changed schools from a private university to the most prestigious medical school in Nigeria, even though I had spent two years in the private school I was still able to pass and gained admission into the federal university, medicine and surgery too, this was another chance of changing my course, but I was convinced to pick medicine again. I did sha, and premedical and preclinical days was uneventful. Although I was among the best in my physiology results.

I got into the clinical aspect of medical school, we started doing pathology, pharmacology, medicine, surgery and the other clinical stuffs. I didn't enjoy any of them. There were lots of information to memorise, which I hated doing. It wasn't in my nature to memorize. It was during this period I had an emotional breakdown and I was diagnosed with clinical depression, this was due to the fact that I had little to no social support, my dad lost his job, so I was dependent on my sister to feed. I was living alone, and had to do some odd jobs to survive in school, I ended up packing my loads and leaving school(in 400level). They tried to stop me, but my mind was made up, this wasn't what I wanted with my life. I decided to get a puppy, after reading about dogs in books and online, I wanted to be prepared to take care of a dog. I did get a puppy eventually and I applied my knowledge in taking care of a dog(whatever I want to do in my life, I always made sure I was ready for it).Anyway after a year of staying at home, I ended up going back to school, when the financial issue was sorted out. Something in me didn't want to continue medical school; I thought it was just the financial issue that made me depressed. But I was wrong. The fact that I was forced into medical school(because they thought that was my best chance of surviving in Nigeria) and underperforming, made me bitter and unhappy. Anyway I did all I had to do in clinicals, and I ended up failing both pathology and pharmacology upon all my readings. I researched the best way to memorise, applied different tested and trusted means of memorising effectively in school, but I still didn't perform up to my expectations. I even wrote two books on how to survive in medical school based on my various research, two editions. I wanted to help other students who were struggling in medical school too. But I couldn't help myself. It's not as if I couldn't memorise, I just didn't want to, cos memorising was boring. During the time I was at home with my puppy, I started reading pathology and pharmacology in advance, I used all the resources I had, I applied techniques like spaced repetition, interleaved learning, active learning, using various media to learn, videos, reading from reliable sources online and totally being in the realm of pathology and pharmacology, it was amazing. When I resumed school in clinicals, I was answering every single question that i was asked correctly, whenever the doctors take us on ward rounds, and it was my turn to answer questions, I always got it right(I kid you not), I was on fire!!! for the very first time, I felt I was doing great in medical school. I felt good then, I was proud of myself. But it was short-lived. I started losing interest in reading, I slowed down. It was uninteresting. Coupled with the fact that there were some irregularities, we were supposed to do pathology and pharmacology first in clinicals, but because it crashed with another set, they had to make us do medicine 1 and surgery 1 first. So I felt my plan was ruined(because I had been preparing for path and pharm for months) tho it actually helped me in medicine and surgery 1, my result wasn't encouraging at all, I scored 42% in surgery 1 upon all my readings and preparation. If assuming I loved knowing unending facts , I know I won't have any problem in medical school, but I hate how I was made to know facts without understanding how those facts came to be.

Now I'm at the stage of failing my second major medical exam(pathology and pharmacology), I finally decided, for the 4th time now that I wasn't interested in studying medicine anymore. And it's final. I have spent 10 years in medical school trying to be what I don't want to be because I was in Nigeria and medicine and surgery was the only certain career to get a job in Nigeria... I would remind you that even after passing MB2(path and pharm) I would still have to pass mb3 and mb4 before I can graduate, and I have two more years left in medical school, that is if I don't repeat classes due to poor performance. I could spend 5 years more, 4 years more or 3 more years because I don't know what other challenges I would face in future. I don't even plan on practicing in Nigeria because of the situation we have now in Nigeria. I would still have to pass all the medical exams required to practice in another country like the USA or UK. And even if I end up graduating medical school, would I be happy with my life being a doctor? Every diagnosis I make would be out of all my acquired knowledge in medical school with little or no analysis involved in making diagnosis, and I would do this till I die, probably discovering nothing like other doctors. Mid life crisis would then hit me like an elephant. Remember my dreams?

I anticipate the kind of response I would get from people after reading my story. Most of you would say that I have already spent 10 years in medical school, why do I want to waste those years now? Sorry to burst your bubble, this is a fallacious thinking called the sunk cost fallacy https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/the-sunk-cost-fallacy. It is a tendency for humans to continue with an endeavour even if it doesn't make sense to continue with it, just because they have spent a lot of time, money and effort in it. It's like remaining in a romantic relationship that isn't working just because you have been in the relationship for years, instead of just going into another relationship that could work.

Another response I would get is that, what do I want to do if not medicine, I would say I have developed a love for data science, because it involves a lot of mathematics and analysis, which are things that comes naturally to me. It's a field in tech(IT) which I love, and it's an emerging field with a lot to be discovered. Infact I can apply the knowledge I have gained in medical school into data science, by discovering patterns in the human genetics(genome), bringing better understanding of genetic diseases. A lot of people might think this change in career path is risky and uncertain, so I shouldn't change, that is another cognitive bias called zero risk bias https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/zero-risk-bias
and regret aversion https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/regret-aversion . We humans tend to avoid making a decision , if we sense that we would regret it in future, and we also tend to avoid risk. There is hardly anything in life that doesn't involve risk, and I think this is a risk I'm willing to take.

Thank you for reading my story for this long, I know it's very long but I don't want to leave out too much details, although there are so many other things I didn't state here, if you have further questions you can ask me on the comment below.

Also I am looking to leave this country to a first world country (USA preferable) where I can be nurtured to utilise my abilities and talent. I don't mind travelling abroad because I believe I can do better than this if I was in an environment that appreciated my talent and enabled me to pursue a path that fits me, and would make me use my ingenuity to discover things.

If you know an organisation/company/industry that would help me reach my maximum capacity, I'm willing to join them. I hate the fact that I'm in Nigeria, underutilizing my abilities. And my dreams are very much alive. I am still learning data science on my own, although I'm not fixed on data science alone, anything that would make me think/analyse, something that requires me to use my ingenuity, I would be willing to do it and make some good money for myself. I don't plan to be poor...

Just so you know, I was involved in student politics during my stay at the federal university.

If you need to get in touch with me, send me an email on nairaland29@gmail.com , my CV is ready. I'm ready to learn new things, and do whatever it takes to work in my best capability and be successful in life, and hopefully discover something new and contribute to the wealth of knowledge of humanity.

Thanks.

I hope Wike can trust his new Governor cos he will need all the help he can get once the immunity is over. Our Elites don't forget easily. Lots of people will be waiting for the day after handing over.

Governance in Nigeria is bad not because of the leaders but because of the people. Wike is a blunt man that often speaks the truth, but that won't make you friends even among immediate family. Wisdom is profitable to direct.

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/09/10-reasons-why-finlands-education-system-is-the-best-in-the-world

Let the kids be kids, I believe this idea was derived from Jean Jacques Rosseau's theory of education.

MolaraFoundatn:
At the mention of money or wealth, heated debates are ignited; and with the relationship between wealth and education, questions have always been asked coming through the lips of many and flowing through the inks of many. In and out of many years, education has been prescribed as the antidote to poverty, but is there any guarantee that a formal education guarantees wealth? Absolutely not. The bitter truth is that there is no guarantee of wealth. However, education is a solid foundation for any child to build upon. It is a strong base upon which persons can build wealth.

Studies have shown that education can create a pathway to good health and many employment opportunities. It can help people stay healthy, earn a living, and work for peace in their society. Education comes with a lot of positive changes in people's day-to-day lives by empowering them to make informed decisions while teaching; education guides us to make the best financial decisions.

If every child learned to read, some researchers estimate that 170 million fewer people would live in poverty. It would raise the standard of living for millions of people worldwide. Any nation looking to create wealth for its present and future generations have to invest considerably in its education sector. According to Peter Mallouk, a certified financial planner and president of wealth management firm Creative Planning, “the greatest separation between you and your wealth is having an education.”
Education is not a guaranteed path to wealth, However, if there is anything that can set you on the path to becoming wealthy, it has to be education. It provides the tools and opens doors to exciting opportunities. Wealth can be built in many different ways, but the best way is through a highly- developed skill set and a large body of knowledge built up over time.

Education is a good foundation,that's true.

There's nothing metaphysical about the poverty, you all voted ruthless and unintelligent people into public offices. By 2050, the population is projected to hit 400m, if you don't do the right thing now, the suffering of now will be child's play compared to then.

National Assembly Passes Bill On Student Loans

National Assembly Passes Bill On Student Loans; The Education Bank Bill, which would give students in public tertiary schools access to loans with no interest, has been approved by the National Assembly.

The bill’s sponsor and speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila, stated that it was intended to provide education for all Nigerians and other related objectives. Sending it to the president for approval is required.

HAVE YOU USED OUR JAMB TOOL YET? IT PROVIDES YOUR JAMB COMBINATION FOR FREE
https://www.studentvillage.com.ng/jamb-tool/

The bill provides for the creation of the Nigerian Education Bank, which will be given authority to supervise, coordinate, administer, and monitor the management of student loans in Nigeria and accept applications for student loans from applicants through Nigerian higher education institutions. Additionally, it will examine the applications to ensure that all conditions precedent to the Act’s authorization of such loans were met.

National Assembly Passes Bill On Student Loans
The bank will have the authority to, among other things, approve and disburse the loan to qualified applicants; control, monitor, and coordinate the students’ loan account or fund and ensure compliance in regard to disbursement; monitor academic records of loan recipients to gather data on their year of graduation; perform national service, and find employment to ensure that loan recipients start repaying the loan when it is due.

The lawmakers should pass the bill into law.
This is commendable

Kingwealth26:
While I served at the government house for my IT 2020, Okowa most likely is the most smartest governor I’ve ever known. In fact he made me decide on being a governor.

If you’ve been to Asaba during Uduaghan’s time, or been to delta generally, you’d know Okowa really worked in delta compared to Uduaghan that borrowed money. And the on the issue of betraying the south, I really can’t say anything about that coz I don’t know what went down underground, I no Dey there and I can’t follow the media to carry stories. But what I know is that they played politics on themselves, and the best player won. And on the borrowing part, they’re simply nailing Okowa because
1. He’s delta north, hence marginalization is the order of the day
2. He no gree succumb to anybody. He refused being anyone’s puppet just like one man I know in Lagos.
3. He’s credibility outsmarts those Urhobo and Isoko guys that feels they own delta state. Moreover he’s covering the ass of Ijaw and Itsekiri people in delta, otherwise the fight in Warri over oil for no end. But strong men won Dey cash out. Before anyone say anything to me, check the delta of Uduaghan and the delta of Okowa. The difference is clear.

@tutudesz do you agree?

ModestGal:
Share your reasons for not liking Canada

As for me, I love love Canada, its my dream home,my heaven. But many Nigerians living here do not like Canada and are usually complaining. In this post, I will highlight the reasons some Nigerians dislike living in Canada

1. Extroversion: Some people hate Canada because they are extroverts, quite understandable. There is less noises, people mind their businesses, you can't easily make friends with the opposite sex, (awon set,, bestie of life). Everyone is busy in Canada and thus extroverts do not really like it in here (They want people they will be wasting time together,lol). Extroverts derive their energy from being out meanwhile introverts derive their energy from being indoor, more like refilling a gas,one refills indoor, the other refills outdoor with friends. Alot of Nigerians are extroverts and thus, doesn't like their inability to go out and have fun in Canada

2. Canada is very cold and dark: Winter is very cold and lots of people don't like the cold weather. It also goes dark by 5:00PM which makes going out a little difficult . The coldness could lead to frostbites, a condition that can get the arm or legs forever destroyed

3. Mothers with kids: Another set of people that may not like living in Canada are mothers.

I drop my cap for mums with 2,3,4 children. It is a big job to raise children in this country. Cooking, cleaning, and going to work is not easy. In Nigeria, it is easy for you to drop your children with neighbors, have other children come play with your children and the children get occupied but here, none of that is possible.

There's no cousin, mother in law, they can spend the holiday with. You can't leave theem at home for 1sec, you can't tell a neighbor to hold their hands to school, you do all your work by yourself. I know you will think, "eehn what is there" Something is there sir/ma, during winter, you dress up for them, especially if they are below 5years old. This dressing up for them can take significant amounts of time,upto 30min per child, they will have to wear 10cloths because of the cold weather, bath them, wear socks for them etc and you will do thesame for yourself as well. This takes holy amount of time

Another reason is that most Nigerian mothers had 10maids in Nigeria..... That was a joke, but sincerely speaking,most Nigerians in Canada were doing well in Nigeria and thus, could afford maids, what I term slavery. And the maids work round the clock, but here in Canada, if you want maids, you will not only pay minimum wage but you also cannot belittle or talk to them anyhow. This makes their lazy asses to be frustrated. There is one aunty, I am praying her process should become successful,she has 3maids in Nigeria,she does absolutely nothing,but still complains she's stressed,lol. I can't wait for her to land in Canada, the suffer,she go suffer ehn.

3. Racism (Pronounced and Subtle): Racism makes some hates it here, structural barriers etc. 90% of racism in Canada is subtle, quiet, smiling which could seriously impact the of the victims


4. Men: This is the part I love the most . In Nigeria, iphones, Cars, Jobs are what men use to entice females due to high unemployment rate in the country,many of our girls would fall for these things and agree to date them or sleep with them. But here in Canada, everyone has access to all these things, this is where equity comes in, a man has no advantage over a female, thus, females get jobs as much as men, and guess what, they can afford everything a man can afford.

Your "iphones" everyone has it, your "cars", everyone can afford one, your "designer wears", it is right in the store opposite their house, your beautiful "homes", every house is beautiful, you live in "Lekki, Banana island, Ikoyi" everywhere is developed and anyone can live anywhere, you are "well educated", school is free in Canada and you will even be paid while in school, tell me why the girls would stoop low to date you? Everyone is classy and can wear good cloths. This frustrates Nigerian men alot because they do not have access to their sexual escapedes with innocent girls anymore and might become depressed due to that

Nigerian men are sexually spoiled,and are preys to innocent girls with either bad education, parenting, religious doctrines that preaches favours, grace and thus when they meet predators, their subconscious would think, ooh, this is the grace and favor I have been praying for. In here, sleep with a girl who is not fully consensual and end your life in jail.

You can't practice all the rubbish you practice in Nigeria with girls here, sleeping with university students for grades, sleeping with under 18, or molesting females in your street, deceiving girls to sleep with them, luring a girl with money, all she has to do is report you.

In addition, many husbands in Nigeria cheats and not only go away with it but the society will still blame the innocent wife for her husband cheating, words like, you don't cook well for him, you don't give him enough sex bla bla bla but here, cheat and your wife would leave or start a divorce which take a hit on men's mental health

You can't impregnate a lady and have them abort it, or abandon them, so many Nigerian males have a child somewhere that they will never take care of, but here, like it or leave it, you will pay for 18 good years.

It's ModestGal on the beat.
You just shake the table with your number 4 write up.

Yeah, thats him. He attacked two lawmakers with the mace and broke the head of one of them with it. He was later charged to court for that but I don't know what happened with the case

Hiw can a grown man be crying and asking for forgiveness like this from a Governor who has only months to go in office

What disgrace

Typical Nigerian politician who will go back to his own vomit because of personal interests

He visited his victim's father last year, he pleaded for forgiveness.
He was forgiven by the family and The PDP members before he became Emohua LGA chairman.

With Ortom abysmal performance, how certain is he that PDP will clinch all elective positions in Benue state ?

My spirit tells me Ortom will even come second in his senatorial election.

Ortom and Ikpeazu are just following Wike every where he goes to as if they are wike's PA.
I wonder why someone like Seyi Makinde decide to join the G-5 Governors.
