PoliticsRe: Building God’s Kingdom With Bombs, Blood And Tears By Ogaga Ifowodo by Skii(m): 11:24am On Aug 02, 2012
[color=#000000]Interesting read...

I repeat this thing I heard from a debate between a Muslim Cleric and his Christian counterpart.

The Christian cleric sure handed it to him; Muslims need to stand up for themselves and decide which type of Islam they wish to practice. Either a strict type or a liberalized type. They need to form different aspects of the faith just like the Orthodox and Protestant churches. Each person go your own way so that the terrorists or barbaric actions of a few, in the name of the same god of all can stop casting the entire religion in a certain light

In relation to Nigeria, I don't believe the "few" elements of Boko Haram speak for the entire Muslim practicing Nigerians. However, I think the onus is on the Nigerian Muslims who are opposed to the practices of Boko Haram to stand up against them, so that they don't risk being unjustly labelled as potential terrorists!!

As to the amalgamation of Nigeria, biblically, light has no business with darkness.
Each person may eventually need to go his own separate way. The north recognise their meager contribution to the country as a whole hence the desperate clamour of the few political elite to always be at the helm of power. They are threatened by the idea that power too long at the hands of someone of a different ethnicity and religious background may eventually lead to this secession and thus bring an end to their exploitation of this fundamental flaw. Again, this clamour is only of a very desperate and greedy few, benefitting from this unholy union.

Is this a reward for the current failure of the under-implementation of the budget?

antitpiah: Dont believe everything you see. Common people like you are only meant to see a couple of secretly armed police which may not be obvious from the photograph above because of the angle from which the pix was taken. There are no doubts that there are armed MI5 agents, armed plain clothes officers, armed bodyguards and maybe a few James Bonds all nearby and mixed in with the crowd, in the train, and on the ground, stationed at all his stops; they are all trained to notice potential threats and counter them before they become real threats, and they are all trained to blend into the background and not be noticed. Just try grabbing the prime minister and see how far you get. If you look closely enough, the passengers around him were carefully selected and werent too close to him. Again, dont let Oyinbo fool you.
Well, you might have a point there sha

I have never been to Aso Rock nor seen from the TV or internet what it looks like so I don't know the geography of the place but I am sure the office complex and the residential compound are not in the same building and regardless of their distance apart, I am almost certain that GEJ doesnt walk or cycle to the office from home!!

GEJ here would most likely have been compelled to ride the train since he was commissioning it.
PoliticsRe: 2015: North Bids For Power Shift by Skii(m): 10:08am On Aug 02, 2012
[color=#000000]
One of the tools that has worked in favor of the few rich and corrupted ruling bunch of this country particularly of the northern extraction is the ignorance of the populace

Following recent events, such as the fuel subsidy protest, it has come as a rude and awakening shock to these few corrupt northerners the slow and gradual "awakening" of the masses to some of the dirty tricks of governance being perpetrated in Abuja and replicated at their locales

Indeed they know that the north doesnt really contribute to Nigeria (with many of their states occupying the last positions in that regard, Jigawa as an example) so they see the need to desperately reclaim power at all cost

So much is this their heightened awareness of the state of things that some of them are even willing to dump PDP, as it has now become synonymous with under-performance, poor governance, fraud, looting and so on, and realign themselves with the new political shift being orchestrated by the CPC and ACN (as highlighted in the OP of this thread) just to retain this power

When they have themselves in power, they can continue to execute their systematic pilfering of this currently inadequate system of governance and prevent any attempts to indeed turn it around for the genuine good of all as GEJ is trying to but is unfortunately struggling and somewhat ill-equipped to do.

BusinessRe: Shell Has No Plan To Pull-Out Of Nigeria - MD by Skii(m): 8:00am On Aug 02, 2012
Is this a sign of something they have seen that we have not? Is the oil starting to finish? Are they planning a careful exit strategy?

Assuming the purported oil that we have is actually less than it is, are they envisaging a scenario where it will suddenly dawn on Nigeria that there is not even a single drop anymore and that they would be the ones to take the blame immediately?

Hmm....this thing is fishy o

TravelUk Job Applications: Now That Post Study Visa Has Been Removed... by Skii(op): 7:34pm On Aug 01, 2012
Fellow Nairalanders,

Now that the post study visa has been removed (April 2012) and most job openings are all requiring that applicants be fully eligible to work in UK -with some going as far as saying that "a post study visa does not meet this requirement", I'd please like to know what the way forward is?

On one hand, UKBA say one needs a company as a sponsor to make up the points necessary to apply for the Tier 2 work permit visa (just like a school serving as a sponsor for the Tier 4 student visa)

On the other hand, the companies are unwilling to sponsor...

Now with the drop in application from international students (who by the way bring about £8billion pounds to the British economy annually), the UK colleges and universities are putting pressure on the authorities to cut back on the laws restricting international students post study...

My question is this, assuming the UK Government do go back on the restrictions, for those people in this momentary period of time between the abolition of the post study visa, NOW, the parliamentary deliberations to relax the law, and what the new law would be... WHAT CAN BE DONE TO GET A JOB? undecided

Thoughts welcomed...Thanks

Zeddicus: If you happen to come anywhere around the recruitment section of companies, you will be shocked to the marrows. I was in the HR of my company between March and June and I just had to plead to be removed from there, reason being that at a point I got so fed up with the whole drama. Take a look at that attached document. This girl took an hour to write that crap! At the end of the day, she will curse me for sending her away immediately and curse GEJ for not creating employment opportunities. Mtcheew!
