Saw the guy on channels the other day. From my own observation, he is not the sharpest knife the NBA could offer.

uruba23:
Are you saying he can't handle an A.K 47 ,know how to remove the safety knob.Don't they teach our governor's self defence,how to disguise , it is only to be blaming the Army he would be doing.Young man like him.Imagine this was the French President Macron .

This thing you talk just dey make m laugh.
Imagine Trump with a riffle defending himself?

Or the lady from new zealand carrying riffle.

Seriously you be mala.

The is a known fact in Akwa Ibom.

I witness one at Esit-Eket LG. On of our dude there old man died and before you know it, loads of drunkers in the name of mourners have down alcohol worth 20k. The dude came to complain to us that he is struggling that he has spent over 50k for mortuary alone.

The burial proper will cost him over a million naira. The guy was just lamenting on the stupid tradition in their village.


He cant complain much because he is part of the system.

So? If not for runs how many of you for pass WAEC
Abegi,runs have been saving lives since buharis first recession.
I remember that time we were all forming bright students, only for me to jam waec maths and begin rethinking the Engineering wey I talk say I wan study.
To God,na runs save us that year.
Even seun cannot swear he didn't do runs.
A solid 100% of Nairalanders who are going to view and comment on this thread did runs..

Mr runs pls speak for yourself.

I wrote my first WAEC on my own in a public secondary with no single help from nobody. made A in maths, B in further maths and all my science subject after all my results were held for almost a year.

in my GCE, after all the threat and all, I refused to burge for their stupid runs. cleared my papers and was proud of it.

truth is many of you are not smart.

This write up looks like it's by someone who failed in school.

Young people don't be deceived. If you're in Uni, do your best. Hardwork WILL be rewarded. Not everyone must learn 'handwork' or be an entrepreneur. I have colleagues who work for international organizations and they earn 3-4m per month. This is just salary o! Allowances are there. And 2 of them were 1st class students.

Don't be deceived, hard work and diligence is rewarded. You worked for your certificate. Let it work for you!

I am depending on my certificate along with skills I learnt on the job and it has opened doors for me. I am earning far more than I can spend every month And I got the job without "long leg".

Again don't be deceived. If you don't want to go to school, find an alternative. If you go to college/uni, be the best you can be.

he made some valid point but what I find wrong with his article is the way he rubbished degree holders. there is nothing wrong in working without certificate but working all in the name of hustle without clear career path is a wasteful hustle.

what I would advice for any degree holders is to sharpen their skills in today's needed skills. forget about your practicals in college of medicine and complex mathematics you were thought in school, ICT has a huge opportunities to get you sorted.

database management
software/web development
graphic designs
data science

are great niche you can pick your interest.
remember, it can only get worse before it gets better.

mrvitalis:
Why 13% why not 50% ? ...why

when you become president, you can change that number in the constitution.

BTW: as a president, you don't even have that power. that's up to the lawmakers and you are going to need 2/3 dominated by the north.

the Niger Delta boys are fighting for the wrong reason. Tompolo, Asari Dokubo, Edwin Clark and the rest of them feast on you people ignorance.

Before this probe and the revelations that it entails, I have always said the development of Niger Delta people is mar by the Niger Deltans elite and govt.

for crying out loud, you have the largest revenue allocations, the 13% derivatives from oil, the NDDC, the Ministry of Niger Delta and the Amnesty program.

they have no excuse not to develop that place like the rest of host cities of oil reserved all over the world.

the uneducated youth languishing in poverty are used as a tool to siphon funds meant to break them out of poverty.

Go to that region and all you see outside the city capital is poverty of the body and the mind.

I knew fight was gonna spin between youruba people and Edo people over who is and who is not yoruba in Edo.


met a wonderful Edo girl during NYSC, common "wa" (come in yoruba), she doesn't understand.

prior that, I thought Edo people should be able to speak yoruba due to history they share with Ife and Lagos but unfortunately, her tribe don't speak one single word in yoruba.

I thought her some few Yoruba but I couldn't learn that their horrible twisted language.

omenka:
They system is rotten not just to the core, but to the atomic level!!

Buhari, you have lost the anticorruption war, the premise upon which some of us became staunch supporters of you!

All you needed to do from day one was show a few examples, making every subject under you understand there'd be no sacred cows. In the beginning, everyone was terrified to touch what wasn't theirs, but to their greatest surprise, you let them nibble without reacting. Seeing your aloofness as they nibbled, they turned their nibble to a mouthful bite, leading us where we are today.

To say I am disappointed is an understatement!

you took the words out of my mouth bro.

The body language was very staunch when he came aboard in 2015.
I remembered NEPA giving up almost 20hrs of electricity daily.
people were scared not mess with a former general championing a corruption fight. i mean what are you fiighting when you have Tinubu, Amaechi, Gandollar, Akpabio and host of others as your inner room circles.

now its just a hoax, as there are more corruption going on under Baba noise than what we hear from NDDC.

he is a great disappointment as you said. 2015 was the perfect moment to change the country path for good. change of govt and party; now there is nothing we can do to change that narrative since illiterates and stupid people are the ones who decide election results.


now I don't see any redemption for the country from the crook politicians lining up for 2023 and beyond. best thing is get a marketable skill and get the hell out of the country.

kingzizzy:
Thats not the point. The point is that they own the oil and gas, how can you give someone 13% of what they own? I own something, you take 87% of my property and give me 13%. Then to add salt to injury, after cheating out of what I own, you come back to ask me what I did with 13% of what was mine in the first place

are you a sovereign nation?

do you even know what has been budgeted for that region in the last 10 years aside their normal allocation?

seborrhic:
Exactly.
Journalism has gone and should go beyond posting random pictures.
A proper journalist would have sources at the ministry of lands or whatsoever,of a bitter or aggrieved adversary of Malami,who would be able to copy the information showing direct or indirect proof that house belongs to the Malami's.
Even these days with most information stored wirelessly,the data base could even be hacked.
The writers should do better.

the one in Lagos assembly that they posted with document, what did you people do about that?

social media can be addictive no doubt. but that doesn't override the benefit when you use it for the right channel.

I have met a lot of incredible data science guys on twitter. white dude who will help you when you get stuck on a project.

linked in can be provocative when you look at the standard people set for themselves, but the are a lot of takeaways for different career path on that platform.

FB and Instagram are just showbiz. not a big fan of that.

your presence of Whatsapp can be limited when you keep few circus of friends and set your privacy on the app.

all in all, what you make out on the apps define how useful or useless they make you become.

richiemcgold:
what's so special about an ordinary owl? Nigerians ain't the only people regarding owl as harbinger of evil, whites have same opinion too -- according to William Shakespeare

shakespeare might have his belief concerning a certain creature. but guesss what, the white has moved on from that primitive thinking Africans are still wallowing in.


witchcraft in 2029 in an evil bird. seriously!

Maxymilliano:
Apart from advising the former MD to visit the hospital, see the doctor, get injection and relax, I didn't read anywhere in the news about four former husband's.

check the penultimate paragragh.

Akpabio phrase it in an indirect annoying way.

America become what they are today as a result of those immigrant you claimed are stealing their technology.

Did Elon musk came to America to steal their technology? Dude came and got the American dream. What of Eric Yuan? the guy who made zoom.

Oh Eric Carnegie was a turkish, but he started building the skyscrapers you see in the US today.

I just read a microsoft power BI and DAX book authored by Alberto Ferrari and Marco Alonso. Do those name sound like Americans? But these guys mentor users of those tools in the US and world over because they help created it in Microsoft.

Just think about it, how diversify the American society is. They have Asian, Europeans, Africans either as a bonafide citizen through slavery, citizenship and otherwise. That's the uniqueness of America.

They are loads of India and Chinese techies working at various company at sillicon valley.

What America does is provide you the enable environment, protect your intellectual property, make you famous, millionaire and use your product to amass wealth and power globally.

What make America Great is the exploits of all national who came to study like those Chinese you guys are lambasting and their intellectual property.

Google a Nigerian called Babatunde Fashola ( not the minister) and u get a what I am saying.

Europeans development dated back to the 1800's.

Those people are centuries ahead of Africa and even America.

My weirdest exam experience is one EEE course set by the most feared lecturer in their department. Even the the HOD of electrical dey fear this man. We call him "AjeBaba".

On the exam day, the dude set questions that were out of this world. Question that were neither in the past questions nor in the material he sold for us. not even in classroom lectures.

All the student started murmuring in the exam like what the fvck is this? On top 4units course in part 4! Our last EEE before 500 level!

One of the lecturers asked us what the problem was and we told him everything on the paper was never thought.

Then the asked us who took the course, and we mentioned AjeBaba's Name.

The 3 or 4 lecturers knew the lecturer like the back of their hand cus he was the one who took them during undergraduate.

Na so these guys release us for exam hall oh. Yeah, a whole electrical course. They told us we can copy and use any material we have, Change sitting arrangement but we must do it quietly.

Na xo exam hall became lecture hall. Guys began moving around, copying like we were in normal class. Some people brought out their expo live.

If you graduated from any engineering dept, you will know how big deal this was when you write EEE exams. They have the most brutal and strict invigilators in the history of invigilators in the country and globally.

I knew Osinbajo was gonna sue she I saw that bribery allegattion. Dude better come with proof to exonerate himself if not, he don enter one chance.

Everybody cannot be displaying blinded foolishness like Reno Omokri and get away with it.

paulolee:
good and congrats bro.

You must be an indomie generation if you don't know Fasuba.

People eat stuff in this country. and why that animal look like cat like that.

Hello everyone, is there anyone who stays or ply area around waec office at Ogba in Ikeja Lagos? I wanna go there for my certificate and I am not sure if their office is open for issuance of certificate.

Those guys need mental test before they are recruited into the system. Many mad people in uniform roaming as officers of the law.

Anti business Nigerian govt.

Dstv subs in Nigeria are the lowest in Africa.

So the only reason, they put the law was because of startimes a govt company.

They want to collect things for free without paying.

Socialist government, that is why this country will be forever poor.

I had similar debate with a friend on how govt meddle in thriving business in the country and I was wow by the FR of DSTV in Nigeria and the rest of Africa. Their business is no longer viabke here. Best thing for them is to pack up.

Only a sound lawyer can help reduce his sentence to minimum of 10. I see him spending 20 years behind bar.

That aside,

Back then in lautech, yahoo boy fight dirty like this almost every week.

My only regret was using the school facilities like (WiFi) to downloads loads of movie and comedy all night when I could have enrolled in udemy courses to enhance my data analysis career.

The social life is not such a regret. I was an introvert right before college and relationship and sex is highly overrated. Been there and done that.

ZZ22:
Go through the posts, nobody has asked how possible it is to loot this much as a governor, get rewarded with a seat in the senate and no serious case of corruption levelled against him. This is Niggaarea, the country people are fighting to keep as one

My brother, if Ajimobi who was governor for 8 years could allegedly steal this much. How much do you think Tinubu has stolen so far for over 20years as governor of lagos state?

Wisdomkosi:
Can you show us Osun State flyovers? I have been to Oshogbo and Ilesha. Nothing is going on there. I mean absolutely nothing.

Which part of oshogbo. Osogbo has the coolest road network in the south west. Forget Lagos hyping( na traffic full that place)

Mokason28:
Sir I’m still expecting a response from you... I will love to prove to you that I wasn’t being sarcastic and my intentions were not to mislead anyone, because you have comprehension issues and you were trying to pour out your poverty and frustrations towards me

Seriousl!! you think I have all the time in the world to get in your "frustration" e-fight chasing clout?
I am pretty sure your Dad would not be proud of his son seeing your display of nuisance here. All of which could have been avoided if he had used condom that your Morally bankrupt mum advised.

And for your gibberish downpour, you can kiss my ass whenever they drop.

Buffoon.

tensazangetsu20:
Gerrard59 see this one o . I bet my life he studied computer science but doesn't know a single programming language but wants to get a job.

At the bolded. Why do Nigerians have an innate belief that one can't get a job without connections even in high skilled professions like software development.

Many people have that mentality and that explains why many of them don't risk and apply for job. Most importantly, most are not even prepare for the so called while collar job. A graduate that cannot even use ordinary MS word talkless of advance excel(met lot of them in NYSC).

After my Nysc, I have interviewed at a fundraising firm on Banana highland and what I learned from that interview changed my narrative on job search and industry needed skills. Had host of others interviews and worked at one of the big 4 without knowing nobody.

And to dive into the Discussion on coding and CS degree. Its like saying someone who self thought how to use AutoCad and Solid work is a better engineer than those who actually study mechanical engineering(AutoCad being a 2 semesters engineering drawing course). But guess what, most engineering graduate cannot even design or fabricate a piece or project. But the self thought guy can help with design.

And that explain why they ridicule you lots with all your theory and process in CS, you have nothing to show or contribute.

The self thought guy pick a few library, became expert in those libraries, add value and render you lot useless.

Remember it is not about what you know, but what you can contribute.
