EVarn: America has been providing intel,training and offering non-lethal military equipments to us since last year.No 'weapon' has been offered to us so far. However,I would say that our victory over BH was a result of determined military leadership coupled with external help from "friendly" nations who agreed to sell us lethal hardware.
Okay I know a lot of mopping up has been going on in the affected states But can you tell me the 'friendly' nations that agreed to sell us weapons I only know of Russia..
ciwi: Nice one. But the article only talks about initial registration, subscription and exemptions. What about actual exam fees?
It also doesn't say anything about how the payment portal identifies u as a Nigerian resident.
Am I missing something
Exactly the exam fee is the koko for me and they didn't specify,, seems they're just looking for people,,and I was already jubilating I had to read it again
Definitely the portal identifies Nigeria via details from the bank you're making the transfer from..
Eeehhj Thank GOD ooo This is Awoof That pounds is too high..
A lot of people in my school just abandoned the ACCA when one paper is almost #30,000 kilode,,I'll now have 48 when pass mark is 50 chai I wan kolo....
Pidggin: Please post links of any previous president that granted interview in his language while in office. Wake up from your slumber and see pmb for who he is, stop trying to sugarcoat the obvious. I am only respecting his age and office hence I will refrain from giving him the insult he deserves. Tribalism will be his undoing mark my words.
I gave you occasions where he granted interview to local&international media stations 'cos you're IMPLYING that he ONLY grants BBC Hausa interviews..BEFORE HE WAS ELECTED Nigerians Knew He was Not fluent in English because of His Accent. If you're having problem with BBC Hausa,, report to the appropriate channel,, write to Punch or something **Don't tell me to wake up from Slumber 'cos I'm not sleeping
**FREEDOM OF SPEECH-you're free to Insult all you want,,who gives a hoot BESIDES Buhari doesn't even know you exist... You have no words for me to Mark..
MduZA: are you talking about the song sang by your own country men on this forum...south Africa this south Africa that?...
Take a long stroll down instagram,your news24,any forum that has anything Nig-S.a,,you will find just few Nigerians replying even On NL you know the type of Monikers that reply you.. We have a foreign affairs section and you can't except us not to talk about s.a in any matter that has connection with Nigeria whether companies, people,sports anything whatsoever. its inevitable
As henry said Go back to your military related topics, I don't know anything about it except Nigeria Is Winning The War Against Boko Are Ram bye.
How come he grants multiple interviews to BBC HAUSA? When he is fully aware that as a president of a multilingual country he needs to speak in our official language which is English. We have English speaking stations who have invited him for similar interviews countless number of times, yet he chooses BBC HAUSA repeatedly. @ his grand old age of 72, surely he should be wiser than this.
You are the same person that'll Complain that you can't understand the type of English he's speaking because of his accents Now he's speaking Hausa you're Spewing up misconceptions Don't you think you should Provide a Link To these MULTIPLE INTERVIEWS he has made COUNTLESS NUMBER OF TIMES ACCORDING TO YOU...
Pidggin: I noticed you deliberately didn't answer one of Flet's intelligent questions. What's buhari's excuse for consistently giving press releases in Hausa.
What sort of Allegation is this... He gave one on TVC another ON STV- With Funmi Iyanda which I watched on a fateful evening.. All those INTERVIEWS with NTA,TVC,CNN,BBC,AL JAZEERA he was not speaking Hausa what do you call them,,,Are you not the same people complaining that you don't hear What he says... He's he supposed to be speaking English in BBC Hausa.. **How did you know that the written press release are in Hausa??
It takes more than 100 days to build a simple civil case let alone a case for terrorist acts against a nation.
The constitution say they are innocent until proven guilty. If the Army and intelligence investigations can't find enough reasons to charge them, they must be released. That is the Law.
Buhari's plans for guilty Boko Haram members are not important. We already have laws and Boko Haram suspects would be charged with High treason and if found guilty, they will hang.
The law does not respect your sentiments. The same tribunal that found him 'complicit' also found he was not Afterall. That is why the legal system has appeals and people do win appeals sometimes. And just so you know, he was never jailed, he was dismissed. Now he has been reinstated and given his full benefits after he won his appeal and No, he does not still work for the Police as he is kow retired. They only paid him his accrued arrears.
Mind you.. Complicit is not the same thing as being guilty of being a Boko Member.
Because GEJ's Army didn't have him under the same pressure he currently is facing from Buhari's Army.
Maybe the increased precision air strike sorties being flown by our Airmen have hit him and killed or injured him.
Maybe the increased raids and destruction of Boko Haram bases have also destroyed some of his media abilities.
Maybe he is too busy running for his life to shoot a video.
Buhari has been in Power for barely 100 days, those girls have been missing for over 1 year (365 days) and then some. If oy still expect those girls to be found, then you need to stop taking those narcotics you are currently using. Do you think Boko Haram kept the girls in a cell like some Wartime POW'S? Like seriously?
Maybe because the North gave up hope on ever finding the girls over 400 days ago When GEJ did absolutely fhuck all to find the girls.
No.. Borno is an active war zone incase you don't know.
People in Borno don't go to the cinema, go to restaurants to chill out with their babes, stroll into shoprite to buy imported water melons and tangerines.
People in Borno are suffering. Chibok village was burnt down to Ashes. CNN and BBC showed before and after pictures of Chibok and not even trees were spared. Have you seen the IDP camps? That's the life they live. Even if it's a simple orange, it goes a long way.
The Borno State government and the Nigerian government t can't compensate these people enough. The situation they face today is as a result of the failure of the Nigerian government to carry out its primary duty of protecting their lives.
This is what happens when you have been Wailing too long. You start to go senile and think you are Making sense.
God will bless you for that Comprehensive Reply to That question which requires Basic ,elementary Thinking,,
Some people's brain are just too Shallow I see some posts and they're just too dumb that I simply delete..
ooshinibos: Please don't send Nigerians to these places ..Azerbaijan -250k Turkey- South africa- these are racist areas and anti black covens of terror
What of Ukraine I have a friend Who got a scholarship and she's going there, are they racist?
That all wires should be removed from the school premises thereby causing power failure?
That the dead (rip) should be brought back to life?
Is the hall under a powerline?
is the school under a powerline?
What exactly is the protest for?
There is a big NEPA station inside Unilag that supplies AKOKA and Environs... Cables crossing the school which are meant for outside communities.. cables supplying the school are underground..
Anything could have caused her death but this Particular one could have been avoided because they already reported to the school that the wire sparks..
engrkenny: I have been shying away from posting a reply on here since the topic surfaced earlier today, having somewhat found myself at this same crossroad since passing out of nysc two months ago, I didn't feel worthy to claim to have answers to the concerns raised by those two brothers. Albeit, mine tends to be a matter of ambivalence at the moment, wouldn't want to talk about myself here tho.
My two pence... True life story...
Last two days, I found myself inside a klimanjaro fast food, after a hot and usually exhaustive aptitude test somewhere in the southern part of the country, trying to cool off. Somewhere on the south wall of the restaurant had a board hanging, with a caption "OUR STORY" a short write up about how the klimanjaro most of us used to impress babes those days back in school was a brainchild of a few young Nigerians and bla bla, I bent down and asked myself, so why spend close to 5k on transport and almost sustained a hip dislocation on terrible roads just to sit for another frustration in the guise of a recruitment test? Coincidentally just this same week a cousin of mine quit her IT job at a local fast food place, her reason....stress, guess what, she works in the account section, on probing further she revealed this people make a subtle 900k a day, and it's just one of their many outlets, I smiled and told her she wouldn't understand, she's still in school and would definitely get cash for all her needs including hairdo by September.
Summary of my long story.......I have decided, no more job tests, no more unsolicited cv submissions, and don't mistake me, I don't despise salary jobs, I'll gladly accept to grow working for someone else, but am no longer going to beg for it. I join my voice to that of many young and knowledgeable young people out there to ask......hw can with all my numeracy, all my computer skills, all my analytical skills, good command of English, I am to be put through scorn in the name of recruitment and I have to be grateful if I get one at last?
I have decided to explore my inner self, does it mean with all I know I can't solve any of the problems I join every other person to complain about everyday? There must be something I can do to make some cash and invest same into acquiring some real hands on technical skills, which has always been my passion, while relying totally on God, the giver of all things.
Any like minded youngsters should start developing same mentality too, no matter how difficult that seems. God bless us all.
Aaawww one of the reasons why I like NL,,Yes I am already thinking of mine with passion, drive and determination the only problem is capital which is why I'm still considering working for a company for like 2/3yrs after uni and at the same time starting a small one but my main long time vision is owning a Conglomerate....
Its about time we stop having the mentality of searching for a job after school(that's even my parents thought) as the other OP said "THE WORLD DOES NOT OWE US A JOB" BUT creating jobs after school is my own goal... God Bless You too and see us through whatever plans we have for ourselves...
MegaMindSet: But the poster is lying. This is not a true experience of yours. This happened way back in 2008 and it happened to my friend. He narrated the story to me and on twitter as well. You just changed the brand of the phones involved but copied every other parts of his story word for word. mehn! You guys should learn to be original.
MduZA: so you decided to jump into a moving train...south Africa gives visas not only to Nigerians...some countries are even visa free therefore nothing special about Nigerians ..indeed Nigerians are hard workers thats why many are being hanged to death daily in Asia..
Nope,not jumping into any moving train,,
That post is a SIMPLE SUMMARY of all you have EVER had to say about Nigerians on any social media/forum whatsoever Like NOT EVEN ONE is of a good character Yes you give visas but when you keep singing the same song about a particular National that they are a thorn in your flesh and you still grant them Visas I don't know what you call that..... Deport them tell your govt. to heed to the voice of its citizens and stop hiding behind diplomatic-relations at least we will get to hear ANOTHER song
DictatorZAR: This is not about stereotyping Nigerians at all. The answer to all this is in the amount of Nigerians who are arrested for doing some of the most horrific crimes, if they did the same in Nigeria they would've been handed the death penalty. Go look at how many Nigeria serving life sentences in SA jails from ordinary commoners to former sports stars.
SA is open to everyone as long as you obey the laws.
Indonesia killed some Nigerians and other nationals for cocaine smuggling some months back, to me they deserved the death penalty Considering How many people's lives they have ruined, destroyed and killed by supplying them drugs But on the other hand Indonesia is protecting its citizens from Prospective druglords as that will serve as a lesson to them and thereby limit drugbarons in their country..
As far as a person is Indeed found guilty of a particular crime the right punishment should be served,, if your prisons are full of Nigerians deport them Except Drugbarons. Tell your govt. to do the needful and stop saying Nigerians,Nigerians,foreigners every time like there is NOT EVEN ONE South African who is a Criminal..
Henry120: Lezz, Dictatorzar, Fighterpilot, Iblawi, MduZA, Shizzy7, Please, I beg of you guys, stop derailing the thread!!
Please!
Let us keep the topic military related. Military related bashing...... No problem, but this sort of trolling we now frequently see is un-acceptable.
I mean guys, we are all adults, let us be civil and post on topic.
Me I am not there ooo I just peep in once in a while to do some defence.
Did our military eventually buy or take delivery of the weapons America was ready to sell to us? I just want to know if our recent defeat against Boko Haram can be attributed to it.
basilo101: but a yoruba pesn was first to post picture of Aba on this thread. stop claiming to be a saint in tribalism, if u attack somebody he has the right to defend himself
Talking about attack
You should take a looooonngg stroll down page 0 again and see the kind of comments you guys attacked the thread with which made others start posting pictures about your side... Yes we know our shortcomings don't rub it on our face like you're any better because every state in Nigeria has its highbrow areas and Slums.... I don't know how you say we're attacking when You know the type of comments your people post on this type of threads and similar ones..
They are changing story from left to right trying to explain why their "biggest city in Africa" is so underdeveloped. So it's now went from "trying to preserve history" to "gold rust" blah blah
Okay
this is a music video done in Ibadan...mind you singers trying to praise a "city" usually try to show the good part of the place. Look at the background of the video. I wonder if they going to blame chino for this one
Somebody puts up pictures of a changing perspective about his/her state the OP IS NOT COMPARING IBADAN TO ANY STATE IN NIGERIA but you will Intrude like your place is any better when in fact Nigeria as a whole is in a bad state whether east,west or North... you are here feasting& celebrating on their Issues....
I always wonder what on earth you people tend to gain in being Tribalistic at every given opportunity in Every sphere and aspects of issues in Nigeria I guess some sense of Superiority which is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING...
MduZA: your brother whose genitals stucked on a married Zimbabwean woman attest that your country men eat everything from the dustbins thereafter beat their chests...an average matured south African girl will tell you that she will never fall in love with Nigerians AKA amakwerekwere because they are dirty ...The lady you are quoting is a witness...do you know what a spaza shop means?no south African would ever dream of owning such a business,we reserve those for your poor country men so that they can feed their starving families back home...south African world class businesses are controlling your economy but you are blind to see that because you are a fool..we reserve all the menial jobs for your people and remember dont take advantage of our generosity,if you skip the line,ordinary south Africans will do the panelbeatings..
A damn filthy excuse for being punished for cheating Or just some extra stories YOU'RE making up from the scene.. **Don't talk about generosity,,'cos you're ANGRY that they do those jobs and YES 'ordinary South Africans are already doing the Panelbeatings'
So here is your List:: Nigerians are Drug lords Nigerians are Scammers Nigerians take our wives Most Nigerians in my S.A come with HIV Nigerians are rapists Nigerians are taking our jobs Nigerians are dirty Nigerians do menial jobs(your bragging right) Nigerians are Fake pastors(snake pastor is the best in S.A) *I think the only thing I've not heard from you is Nigerians import corpse to S.A ***AND one thing you can NEVER say about us is Nigerians are lazy BUT Your embassy/govt. will still grant a Nigerian Visa Today and Tomorrow. Well, You can continue your regular Poems I mean we just can't get enough of you Until you deport them...
FighterPilot: You are confusing the whole things. It is not about odd jobs being taken away, it has to do more with how foreigners are being misused. For instance in the past before the influx of foreigners most companies would outsource, areas such as cleaning and refuse removal from their firms in the form of tenders and pay huge sum of money for that, but today they just only pick up some few foreigners on the street to do all that for them for a bargain, saving company a lot of money for a project that they have always tendered for by following necessary legal directives.
Now factories go the short cut by avoiding advertising and procurement costs. That's why the economy is not doing well because everyone is not getting what he used to get. It affects newspapers from the profit they used to make in advertising of these tenders causing them to retrench staff. It affects the survivability of these cleaning services companies.
There are many companies which were established specially for that purpose of cleaning and removing or disposing refuse from these factories. Most of these companies are registered as BEE compliant to empower the previously disadvantaged community.
. We also have those cleaning companies here and companies who can afford them go for them,nobody complains,, you cant tell those companies not to cut cost when they have an alternative to some expenses incurred, its something most companies strive on Less expenses,more revenue..
so INDIRECTLY your citizens also do those odd jobs just that that theirs is behind cleaning company services.. It just amuses me how you people are always saying we do Odd jobs like there is NOT EVEN ONE Nigerian who is a professional.. You should complain more to your government to make necessary/alternative provisions for them ,you complain that they're thieves and you're also angry that they do Menial Jobs.Tell your govt. to quit hiding behind diplomatic-relations-pretence and Deport them, your citizens already gave them the green light by being xenophobic, at Most other countries will talk & cry foul but you get your satisfaction of not wanting foreigners who take your odd jobs,are thieves,rapists,fake pastors and all
