MissMeiya:
I consider that recent.

I'm quite surprised no one has asked important questions on this thread that ought to have been asked. Questions such as ;

1. On eligibility of contestants : it was stated undergraduates and recent graduates are eligible. Please how "recent" is recent? For instance, someone already asked if a 2010 graduate be considered as recent.


2. On the length of the essay : 400-700 words were specified. Will this be inclusive of the quoted references or exclusive?


3. If there are more essays submitted on a particular area of interest over other areas of interest. How will the best amongst them be sorted if they're all well written? I'm asking this, because i felt a general topic (not theme) should have be selected for the essayists to write on.

These are my thoughts and questions for now. Looking forward to your response. Thank you.

Pls what does EQ mean?

EQ = Emotional Quotient. You're welcome.

DailyNews:
Honestly, this guy isn't far from the truth; the best place to meet ladies who truly like u for who u are is in the higher institution, and maybe NYSC days, after those period, a single Nigerian guy is in deep mess!

All you will be meeting are ladies who ask you: where do you work, what do you do for a living, where did you schooled, where do you live? All these questions are their secret ways of assessing your worth to decide whether to date u or not, its really a bad situation that all Nigerians must condemn cos it affects us directly or indirectly; u can ask me how and I will xplain to u.

And this is one major reason many financially comfortable guys in Nigeria with no existing girlfriend stay single for long or marry just any lucky girl for marrying sake.

While some just marry any available lady and continue cheating even after marriage. Nigeria is really in deep mess seriously. Our societal love and worship for money and material things have landed Nigeria in a great generational mess!

We all think its nothing, but I tell you all that Nigeria is in a big mess that's affecting all Nigerians- rich or poor.

This affects our national economy, societal happiness, life span, societal health, security and even marriage unity and Nigerian children future.

Its high time all Nigerians wake up from their slumber and stop this excessive love and worship for money and materialism. Its really disheartening. Money is absolutely nothing! Anybody that wishes and desires to become financially rich will! Money isn't as hard as Nigeria see it. After u waste so much energy, time, effort and acquire money finally, acquire that ur dream car(s), house, etc, u will then understand that money is nothing! I speak from xprence. Why do u think celebrities post pics of their cars, houses, etc online? They are bored and just want some attention. They are tired of those fancy cars and house.

Sometimes u will sit and look that car u dreamed of and bought and nothing extraordinary about it. You watch the big empty house your living in and no joy except when ppl come around and praise your house, aside that, its just an empty space!

So y all these noise for money? Why are our ladies so bent on money, money, money, money? Jeez!!! Money is nothing my people!!! I wish I can just make every Nigerian millionaire so they will understand that money is nothing!

The kind of love, attention and worship Nigerian women give to rich guys are the main reason Nigerian men treat women like trash!! Nigerian women's love for money/materialism is the sole reason for their predicament!

Anytime I raise this topic with my mum, she always feel bad and say its too bad cos in their time, that ladies hardly consider money b4 agreeing to date a man; that it was afro hair, bongo trouser, his sense of humour, etc that most ladies considered most.

But today, before a girl accepts to date a guy, she inquires where he works, where he schooled, the family he comes from and the kind of house he's living in, just to know his worth and possibly his future that no one can predict except God.

Get money as a guy in Nigeria and buy a good ride and see yourself become every Nigerian woman's dream woman, to the extent you can't even tell which girl likes u as a person or based on what you are.

All these brought cheating and infidelity amongst Nigerian married men.

Because many Nigerian men got rejected by their dream woman when they weren't financially buoyant, they ended up marrying any available lady that accepted them, so when they marry and in the process become financially buoyant, they now become promiscuous; use their money and wealth that Nigerian girls so much love to get as many girls as possible to sleep with, thereby cheating on their wife, and women will be screaming: men are cheats, its cos u ladies make it difficult for guys who truly care for u to get to u while giving in yourselves freely to men/guys who don't care but want u ladies just for fun.

It hurts me when I see super-pretty working class ladies from good family background droll around my guys in number all because of money, sighs.

All my male friends who are financially buoyant and single have more than 4 super-pretty, working class girlfriends who all see them as their fiancee and love of their life, whereas these guys don't even send them because they are many dying for them; showering them with love.

And meanwhile, some guys who don't have enough cash are out there begging to love these pretty working class ladies and they won't even look their way just because those guys don't have money and good cars yet, its pathetic, I weep for my country Nigeria, we are finished!!!

If you like hate DailyNews, but please take home my message, I am not here to fight, just airing my opinion to help Nigerians learn for the good of our nation.

You have said it all. Thank you for this beautiful piece. Permission to rebroadcast Sir!

flywheel:
The first question he asked was, i applied for graduate internship which i know I've applied for many, and he's last words were they'll send me a mail but he mentioned the company's is in Germany, wether he means the head office

Ok since you're not so sure about this, i'd advice you to just play along, but use your discretion the moment you sense it could be a scam. What's the name of the company?

Oh...no guys, this thread has being up for more than a year or so, i thought the thread was dead? Who resurrected it again? Well...it's really nice to see the thread generating good and well articulated responses. And it's even nicer to see that the ladies have made valuable contributions too. I love it...because i see it's been raining brains in here!

morbid:
Abeg,you and sabiguy,who sabi smfin pass? I've never seen a discernible mind like yours. Naija z rili blessed;na just brain drain D̶̲̥̅̊є̲̣̥y̲̅ kill us.

Haha...i was only doing what i had felt was proper i.e not showing off to simply strike home a point. Oh...yes! Nigeria is indeed awesomely blessed with brains. Just starting here from NL alone, you would easily notice it.

Again your topic title contrasts with the question. Can you be clear on that please?

flywheel:
I got a phone call from a foreign number today asking me when I'll be through with my youth service and my career objectives, after responding he asked if i can work in IMO state and that he'll send me a mail and invite me when he is in Nigeria....please did any other person recieve such phone call and how genuine is it?

I smell scam, when and how did you submit your CV? Or you can't remember? Maybe you should have stylishly asked what exact role you applied to?

femoosh: Got an invite from this firm in portharcourt, checked their site and it seems real but would like if anyone has any more details about them.

I haven't heard of them before. They must be quite new. But i would like to know how you applied?

Who noticed this on what they said about the investment requirements across the Geo-political zones :

North-West = $481 Billion
North-East = $316 Billion
North-Central = $482 Billion

South-West = $717 Billion
South-South = $585 Billion
Then;
SOUTH-EAST = $(419) Billion, are you thinking what i'm thinking? Isn't this another scam?


*****Meanwhile on a more serious note***** Let me formally take this moment to congratulate me, myself and i for the wonderful grace of God in my life. After a few years of joining NL, i can now finally boast of what the others have been boasting of. To be honest i never knew it would come any time sooner, i believe this year is indeed my year and the good Lord has just started manifesting his good works in my life. And for my family, friends, foes and well-wishers alike, i'm highly elated to be speaking from this high platform, it was a long tumultous journey and it hasn't been easy, but being dedicated and focused, i was able to achieve this within the shortest time possible. To Oga Seun and the SuperMods and Mods, what can i say? i can only say thank you for this wonderful opportunity. Once again i thank you all for your love, hate and concerns these past years.

*Drops Mic*and runs off to the back stage.

Donmarrius: This is exactly what you get,when a country like Nigeria,refuses to sanitize her blogsphere!.

Op,both you,and the source you qouted,are product of Yaba left.

in your mind, you have made sense right? My friend....don't be Silly, i didn't manufacture the story, the news has been splashed all over the internet since today. If you did a proper psycho check on your brain, you would have found out it's also on other sites like Arise TV(mind you Arise TV is also owned by the same owner of Thisday). Now crawl back into the cave you came out from.

I don't really know what to say about this, but i have a feeling this won't go down well with some particular sections of the country. Please read up the link to offer your own thoughts on this revelation.

Apart from the assessment of the Iraq/Ukraine crisis. What exactly was the question's format? Objective, Theory or Both? And what other questions were asked?

Hmm...this thread went dead the moment Cortana's verdict turned you all dumb.....Lol!

abatically: In another news Cortana predicts Argentina sound win. So which one is which? If Cortana predicts Germany would win, then predicts Argentina would win then that's cheating

https://www.nairaland.com/1806652/cortana-predicts-argentina-beat-germany

^ The link in this thread is fake and mischievous, it only leads to a 404 Error page.

Switpal: who cares? Is Cortana God? Whoever wins.... Congrats 2 them.

Mortified response hmmm...i honestly doubt that congrats of your's is going to any other team than "Argentina", but sorry even the gods of football would be bias to let Argentina win over Germany.
