DON'T

I

The woman they are carrying in the second picture, I don't understand what is happening in that scene.

Is she a suspect or they are rescuing her.
DJ cuppy has already thanked God for UNCLE Aliko Dangote.

Jackie chan, jet li, van damme, those 2 boys in strike back, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis e.t.c should be ashamed of themselves...

Is d'banj wearing red sneakers on sky blue Agbada??

Fashion gone weird..
Bangalee.

Ohaneze are not igbos. The igbos will call them yoloba propagandists as usual.

They should summon the the president of Benin Republic and Nigeria's ambassador to Benin.

Dem plenty fir Lagos pass Kwara but those in Lagos are not invading communities.

Aguntasolo1:
This is a profoundly ignorant comment.

Your father doesn't have to own a place before you secure a job there based on connection. Look at the entire trajectory of her career and you should be able to see connection, not competence, clearly written on it. The mere fact that you work with UN, Bill and Melinda Foundation doesn't rule out connection. In what role did she serve at Bill and Melinda Foundation? Because if you look at the job page of Bill and Melinda foundation and go thorough the minimum qualifications required, she shouldn't have been taken for any role except someone intervened. She listed Bill and Melinda Foundation as affiliations. Did she work there and in what role?

Aruma Oteh made a first class from UNN, a known school and then got an MBA from Harvard. She worked in various firms before even that of DG SEC. Diezani got a degree from Howard in Architecture before working with Shell; she has an MBA from Cambridge. She rose to become a director. Although you may be morally bankrupt, yet to achieve such a feat in the private sector, your intelligence must be above average.

This is the key: without Diezani knowing GEJ, she could have been nominated for a minister of petroleum based on her own career trajectory just same way Aruma Oteh for DG SEC. The same can not be said of Amina whose main job was forming nebulous NGO to get funds from government. Clear?

We both know Dame Patience and what she is notoriously known for but I can assure you she would also speak a flawless British English was she born and raised in England.

Loool, @ the emboldened
Dame Patience Jonathan
WASCE - 1980
NCE - 1989
B.Ed
P.hd - University of port Harcourt

If your sister possess all these degrees and speaks common English the way patience does, I guess you would tell her that is what "you are ridiculously known for".

If you can't understand the Language in which you were being taught for decades, what is the essence of the degrees??

My deizani&Aruma's part was a sarcasm in opposition to Patience's case.

Bye.

Aguntasolo1:
I think I need to break it down for you.

According to her CV, Amina was born in 1961 and didn't get her first job until 1981.


Even though she didn't mention her job role, I would nevertheless ask you this question: was she employed in that firm because of her brilliance or intelligence? You don't just become an Engineer, a Surveyor or an Architect because you speak English with a British accent. It's safe to state she wasn't employed in those roles. A young lady in her twenties with no degree, no SSCE could not have got a high profile job in a firm that requires expertise which takes years of training to acquire. Whatever role she got in that firm has nothing to do with high level of intelligence. It is even curious that she listed her specific roles in other organizations except this firm where she worked for 10 years! Since she had no known expertise and training, it is pretty obvious that if she was employed in high profile role, it would be as a result of "connection".



This doesn't count since she is a co-founder. Can she deny herself a job? That is, you can't say her performance in her previous role/job recommended her for this position. Whatever it is, one could say she had enough money to float her personal business. Afri-Projects Consortium was engaged by Buhari's PTF in the 1990s for managing HIV/AIDS intervention programmes. Since the firm has no experience in such intervention and the position not advertised, it was a "paddy paddy" connection job. Nothing in particular recommended her firm for that job.




Apparently,when Buhari's job as PTF chairman was gone as a result of transition to democracy, there was nothing for Amina's APC, hence CSACEFA where she was both a private consultant and National Co-ordinator at the same time. And what did they do? Of course, they worked with Ministry of Education! You too can form an NGO and name it anything. You can even name yourself a coordinator of 100 NGOs and then use your connection to work with the Federal Ministry of Education.


Can you see the link between the NGO she formed and the job she got at the Federal Ministry of Education? Connection.


And this too? Isn't this connection too?

Of course by the time you have many agencies including Nigeria's presidency listed on your CV, you can easily get job with such firms such as Bill and Melinda Foundation and even the UN. She got that UN job based on her previous role as SSA to President on MDG, a position she got based on connection.

There is nothing special about her other than her British accent.[b] Since she doesn't have any apparent talent, no expertise, no degree, no SSCE, she couldn't have gone that far without connection.

Summary of your thread, topic and post.
[b]It's all Connection,there is "nothing special about her", she does not worth all these because she is not educated at all.

But those who are have expertise and education have been at the helm of affairs for decades and we are regressing.
We had a former first Lady with all the "Almighty degrees" who disgraced us locally & internationally, she would have been better off speaking our dialect.

Nike Davies-Okundaye - NO FORMAL EDUCATION but lectures those with degrees at Harvard, meets with Presidents but since she is not into politics, no connection.

Go and check the bosses at Nigerian Customs-(worse-off)… You think there is nothing special about her? ComE again, you can only wish.
Those you think that are special because they have all the degrees and expertise have ruined Nigeria.
I will like to see what she is going to do.

Duru1:
Per the bolded, a typical Nigerian mentality. You did not mention how "short legs" landed her in such position without a paper as door knocker.

Scroll down I actually mentioned it.

**Her father is the owner of United Nations
**Her Grandfather owns Colombia University
**Her uncle owns Bills and Melinda gates foundation

Dame Patience Jonathan has most of the required degrees, she should replace her.

Everything is connection,
Deizani's relative has a child for Jonathan - Connection
Arunma Oteh - Connection
Nothing can ever be based on merit
my list can go on and on.......
**Your typical Nigerian Mentality

Aguntasolo1:
If she didn't make it through connection, through what did she make it?

*Her father Is the owner of United Nation
*Oh, her uncle is the owner of bills &Melinda Gates Foundation
Have you ever watched or heard this woman talk?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RILDbPnjNfU&client=mv-google&gl=NG&hl=en

For someone you are prioritizing ssce and different degrees over intellect.

I have already given you my reply in the previous post, go and watch and read about her performance in different things she has handled....

And I will give you examples of people who made it big and are successful without formal education.
This is Nigeria, you must have all the papers before your performance is checked.

Degree > Action.

Aguntasolo1:
Sure. How did she do it? I am just amazed that a woman without even a secondary school education could achieve that much.

She must have had some sort of on-the-job training and she must have performed well in Projects or positions she handled.

https://www.naij.com/600305-read-profile-female-ministerial-nominees-set-appear-senate-commitee.html

Some people think she made it to the top through "connection" but connection will not get you to UN neither will it tale you to the level of adjunct professor of masters at Colombia University.

For decades, so many people with different degrees have been appointed, how well did they perform?

It's better if your work speak for you and not
necessarily degrees
You should read about successful people from different works of life around the world who had no formal education.

Aguntasolo1:
Don't get me wrong, you don't need a degree to be appointed a minister neither is one needed to be a performer. However, for record purposes, I just want to know where our honourable Minister of Environment got her first degree.

This is her CV as published on Vanguard's website:



I read her profile on UN website, nothing was mentioned about her educational qualifications.
http://www.un.org/press/en/2012/sga1349.doc.htm

Does she have a degree? And if yes, from where?

Her profile is far better than those with
B.Sc+M.Sc+PHD+LLB+B.Ed.

** Special adviser to UN secretary-general Ban- ki - Moon on post-2015 development planning

**Founder and CEO of centre for development policy solutions

*Founder and executive director Afri-projects Consortium.

* Governor, International Development Research Centre Canada.
and others


But some daft people above thinks she does not worth the position because their sense of Common reasoning has been blocked by hatred.

And they are all fair..
Later they will be saying dark girls should not bleach as if all the dark girls in Nigeria are ugly.. Mttchheww.

wisdomguy4u:
I don't blame you, you are from africa. You bunch have no respect for freedom of expression. Go to American blogs and see for yourself heinous names they call Obama. Pple are airing their grievances , instead of you to address the situation and make them change their view, you are busy trying to suppress their voice.

This is why some whites still call you black monkey, bcus you act and reason like a monkey.

You are typing/thinking out of Context..

Insulting other tribes Consistently is different from
Insulting the President like "dullard" and other names.

The op is talking about the former NOT latter.

They all have representatives in the SENATE and house of representatives saying NOTHING about it.

What has *black monkey* and *you are from Africa* got to do with everything or anything on this thread?

I am speaking for the boys/men

That is the right way. Your wife should be older than you(Like 10 years) because....

*She will protect you spiritually
* Your children will think maturely
* She can't leave or divorce you.

pTomz:
u min dis types?

Respect this babe's privacy and stop being evil.

IlekeHD:
Nawa o. this NL is scary.

Ileke wetin dem do you again? I know most of your threads have been deleted.

If you are scared, just move to romance section and learn weird relationship goals or

celebrity section and become addicted to viviangist/ blog. Those 2 places are not scary at all..

Here we go again!!!

Politics section is now jokes section.

Codedrock:
Seriously?? As peaceful as that topic was, we still have people like this here?

My dear, you don't know those you are dealing with.

If suen grants your wish, they will make your enemy go mental.
You do not know what you are signing up for.

LLLOooolllll

You will work for free oooo and full-time. hunger go wire you.

You can NEVER end tribalism on NL because we have some mumu species suffering from
*we are clueless* deficiency syndrome.

They don't mind having more than 10 e-mails dedicated to NL.

What sort of exaggeration is this?


She is definitely not the prettiest talk less of "MOST" - maybe sarcasm.
I like brymo tho but e no sing again.

She pweety.






in the first picture.

Now I think someone has been diagnosed with money deficiency syndrome.

adaksbullet:
