With God's favour and a masters degree,i believe a 2-2 or a third class graduate can make it in Nigeria.
I came out with first class honours but couldn't get a job.
It took the effort of a good friend to finally get a job.
Coincidentally,this friend of mine came out with a 2-2 but later got his masters,which landed him a job at ELPER Oilfield Engineering limited.
So i believe the class of degree shouldn't be a barrier at all.

seangy4konji: Keep Quiet...wetin concern land space with the money weh naija get...abegi go sidon somewhere joru na nor try with d money weh u na get simple

Nigeria is not as wealthy as you think and definitely not as wealthy as qatar.
Qatar has far far more money,to spend on far far far less population that has far far less cultural,political and religious differences and develop far far far less land area.
I hope you get my analogy.

Adamskuty: IN THE 60S,THE ONLY PLACE THAT LOOK A LITTLE BIT LIKE A TOWN IN NIGERIA WAS LAGOS,LOOL

ABUJA WAS BUSH,FILLED WITH VILLAGERS AND MUD HOUSES EVERYWHERE,NONE HAD ACCESS TO PIPE-BORNE WATER.

THERE WERE FEW ROAD NETWORK,FEW VEHICLES AND SO. OUR POWER SUPPLY THEN WAS EVEN WORST

THEN CHINA WERE ALREADY EXPERIENCING UNINTERRUPTED POWER SUPPLY

GOOD ROAD NETWORK,BEAUTIFUL CITIES,FROM BEIJING,HONG KONG,SHANGAI E.T.C ALL WITH SKYSCRAPPERS AND LIGHT RAIL LINES.


NOW THIS MADAM IS TELLING ME NIGERIA WAS BETTER THAN CHINA IN THE 60S

indeed

Abeg, free the naieve girl.
I am sure she thinks she has made an intelligent point.

[quote author=p'scott]You guys should leave obigellia alone, she did'nt intend mocking naija by uploading those pix, but she is jus trying to air her views on the high rate of corruption among our so called leaders nd also the mismanagemnt of d natural resources the God has endowed us with.We need change is this country and thats all.[/quote]Then she should learn to compare wisely.
How can any knowledgeable person compare Nigeria to qatar without taking many factors into considerations.
*rubbish thread*

Comparing Nigeria to qatar is moronic.
Infact,very few countries in this world can compare to qatar.
Qatar has a population of less than 20million with more than three times Nigeria's crude oil reserve.
The comparison is just not fitting.

Cultured: My compatriots and their pull him down syndrome, especially the poor folks present in this forum , whose mantras are : Every successful businessman is a criminal that must be destroyed at all cost ; Every successful politician is corrupt and the bane of stagnation in the country and their personal lives , therefore deserve nothing but death ; A successful career person is a pen robber that deserves nothing but lifetime jail . Folks stop hating the elites.

WTF are you saying.?
That OBJ was not corrupt?
*Wetin i no go hear for nairaland*.

yetunsbay: source pls.......will do u a great honour

Go use the nairaland search engines.
That's the best i will give you.
Afterall,your co-horts are not giving us sources.

collynzo2: See who is talking about IQ. How can you use 'words' to spell another word. Hahahahahahaha. Let's all laugh at her (in Spanish) jajajajajajajajajajajajaja!

lol.
You sef join me laugh.
That lady is funny.

[quote author=babe_online]I am not ''fearful''. I was simply replying you. Not everyone is Igbo, okay?
You are talking. Abuja is just over-hyped by people that do not know anything about the place. I lived there for 14 years so I know what it is about.
All they do in Abuja is share money that belongs to you, me, and others.
If I was you I will be applauding Fashola for what he has done instead of barking like the Igbo you are. *rolls eyes* TYPICAL!
If you want Nigeria to grow and develop just as I want to then you wont be complaining(people from my state have been depoted too and I did not yapp).
If the riches of lagos is superficial, how come its the best city to do business in, in Nigeria?
For Nigeria to grow and develop we must all endure certain things that we may find annoying.[/quote]don't worry.
When such measures is reciprocrated in other parts of the south,we will give you the same reason.
Afterall,it's for the good of the country.
I hope lagos can take all of you,since that's the only place yorubas can call home.

lizzylizzy: Hmmm, this not being tribalistic at all. Really something has to be done fast the way other part of the country wants to lay claim over Lagos state especially Ibos.
It was about 3 yrs ago i noticed this, I hardly go to mile 2, Festac, Iyana- Iba –okoko , Cele area ,so i was there to run a programme in that area for a period mehn ! the Igbos have taken over all those areas.
Now come to island, i was shocked when i was trying to move to island and get accommodation .Dolphin Igbos full there, VGC they all over there and lekki too i know very soon. You know with all their shady business in making money, the desperado in making money any which way.
Igbo’s keep multiplying ,you see a typical Ibo family 7 – 9 children even the educated ones among them ,the Yoruba’s that they claim do have plenty wives which was even in olden days doesn’t breed children like that, even my grandfather with all his 3 wives had only five children. The Yoruba Muslims that are even entitle to more than 1 wife are even keeping a moderate family ,meanwhile these Ibos fleeing to other part of the country will go there vomiting children and increasing the population anyhow.
Imagine Chukwudu will come to Lagos; later bring his siblings and all their extended family my brother, my brother thing they say. Also Chinyere –like that………….
And mind you it is not only Lagos go to Ogun, Oyo, and Osun you will find them everywhere. So, Fashola has not really done bad at least for now till when FG / other states wake up to their responsibilities ,what he just need to be doing is to hand them over to their governors .

And those claiming that there are tens of thousands of Yoruba people working in the SE / SS especially oil and gas. They are gainfully employed there because of their intellect and if want them back please send them away. You will come back looking for them and employ them as your expatriates then.

Eko o ni baje and long live Nigeria!

what expatriates?
You think you are talking to a novice.?
It seems you've forgotten that SE/SS indigenes admitted in our universities are far more than the SW.
There are millions of unemployed graduate niger-delta indigenes that have been shut out of the oil&gas industry.
They will be taking up those spaces left by the yorubas.
I work in the O&G sector,so i know what i am saying.

[quote author=babe_online]Igbos hate to hear the truth even when its from a brother. What Agbagoro said is the truth. Igbos are two mouthed!...are you a Nigerian or a Biafran??[/quote]what is the meaning of are you a Nigerian or biafran?
Are the resources of the SE not being used for the Nigerian state?
Why didn't your fore-fathers allow biafra to actualize?

[quote author=babe_online]you said Yorubas perpetrate crime in other states...ven if they do you still cant compare it to that of the Igbos. NOT ONE BIT!(and you know its true)
And hell yeah I graduated from Primary school. Not everyone is like you and your brothers especially those in Alaba market in Lagos.[/quote]smh.
Where did you get your statistics that igbos committ more crimes than yorubas?
The world record for the highest amount of drugs ingested by anybody is being held by yorubas in the male and female category.
Most of the Nigerian names present in FBI wanted list belongs to yoruba.
Lagos-ibadan expressway is a hot bed of yoruba ritualists.
How then did you come about your hypothesis that igbos committ more crimes than yorubas?
What crime did the beggars committ to warrant their deportation?
It seems poor education is not your only problem,you also lack common sense.
Lmao @ you comparing yourself to alaba traders.
Those traders have an I.Q you can only dream of.

[quote author=9ja_i_hail2]Same way he checked the legality of his actions before going to court to challenge jang faction of NGF. Now who is asking for case to be withdraw. Do i need to tell you that fash is a failed SAN?[/quote]Seriously,that fashola of a guy is a slowpoke.
He's just too impulsive.
A very bad attribute in a leader.

omar22: I know what Tyranny means, your not in the position to educate me, I asked you a question, all you did was to flip the script.

How is fashola a tyrant?
Someone that willingly flounts a democratic constitution is what?

[quote author=babe_online]the oil is reducing its value rapidly.
Tha is why the value of the Nigerian money has decreased more.[/quote]Look at this one talking about price of oil.
She dosen't know that what it takes for the price of oil to shoot up is for one major oil producing country to have an unrest.

logica: Trust me, your FATHER is an illiterate. If your entire lineage come for teaching, I will try and educate you all.

why am i not surprised.
You are a product of awo forced education.

omar22: Who is a Tyrant Fashola or Goodluck? (a.k.a Retardinho de Souza De Lima)

If GEJ is a tyrant then you've no idea what tyranny means.

logica: Eh, see this one. Why do you think the Nigeria Police can pick you up and lock you up for "wandering" if you do have freedom of movement? Go ask them first, then if they can't answer you satisfactorily, come back again to ask me.

See this illiterate comparing apples and oranges.
Wow.

Abagworo: I think you need to develop your sense of reasoning a little bit. After reading the full news, I believe most of the people are insane or mad people from various parts of the country. I think Fashola got it wrong as there should be a psychiatric centre in Lagos.

Fucck off,you as$licker.
These are the same set of people you want ruling over Nigeria.
You want yoruba bigots in charge of Nigeria.
May God save you from your naievity.

omar22: What bugs me is that the Igbo's blindly Support Jonathan Goodluck and Shepopotamus actions. If what Fashola is doing was done to TWEEDLE DUMB and TWEEDLE TW@T the Igbo's would go on a Goodluck @$$-Kissing crusade...

shut up.
So you want igbos to support a tyrant?
An open enemy of ndi-igbo.
Let me see any ACN/APC old scums campaigning for any political office in my area.
I go use stone break their head.

[quote author=babe_online]you need to go to an asylum ASAP![/quote]I need to go to an asylum,because i said many yorubas are perpetrators of criminality?
Lol.
Did you finish primary school?

[quote author=Dudu_Negro]We are not parasites....we are joint owners of the oil in the Delta.[/quote]you are joint-owners of which oil?
The oil on your fore-fathers land?
Go and tell that to the militants.

[quote author=babe_online]well its neat(especially the markets) and I dont see anything wrong with the dusty roof.
Oyo is developing too and even with that, the old Oyo roofs wont be taken away because its part of the state.[/quote]stop deceiving yourself,woman.
Aside from lagos,the rest of the SW is like a relic when compared to other parts of the south and even some parts of the North.
The reason most non-indigenes are even in lagos is for commercial/economic reasons.

[quote author=Dudu_Negro]Why would you kick Yorubas out of their jobs? They are not kidnapping on your land, not robbing your people and snatching their belongings, not snatching foreigners on your land, not begging on your streets or sleeping under your bridges. So tell me your justification for kicking them out.....just because they are Yoruba? Its unlawful to do that.

These igbos are menace to Yoruba society and values thats why they are being kicked out.[/quote]Igbos are a menance to your society?
Na God go punish you.
Do you know how many yorubas are arrested daily for kidnapping,robbery,murder and other vices in other parts of the country?
Get ready for full scale retaliation.

Sincere 9gerian: Though this thread is not about SURE-P, but for the purpose of other sensible and fair minded Nigerians, below is what the federal govt is doing with its SHARE of SURE-P funds
http://www.nairaland.com /1255508/sure-p-getting- job-done

So what is satanic Fashola doing with its own SHARE of SURE-P funds?
http://www.nairaland.com /1149064/what-lagos-doing- subsidy-removal

Meanwhile, just to clear the air on your public show of ignorance on the issue of poverty eradication and job creation. It is the RESPONSIBILITY of ALL the three tiers of govt to eradicate poverty and create jobs- the federal, state and local govt. Your attempt to exempt satanic Fashola from this responsibility shows how deceitful but clueless you are.

Satanic Fashola does not collect N40 billion monthly revenue to plant flowers and sponsor Tinubu's birthday celebrations alone. Part of the funds should also go into poverty alleviation and job creation

It is even more ironic when it turns out that these SW states are depending on other regions for survival.
Bloody parasites.

[quote author=babe_online]relly?...well the oil very soon will no longer be useful...lets see if the Westsiders will be able or unable to do without the evil oil in the other parts of NG...and FYI oil has been discovered in the west. Choke on that. [/quote]what oil are you talking about?
The only SW state that has commercial viable crude oil is ondo state.
Even then,the amount of oil they produce is like a drop compared to what obtains in the SE/SS.
Btw,i don't think the oil in lagos is commercial viable.
If it was,they would have started exploration a long time ago.

[quote author=Dudu_Negro]Lagos was the beginning of Nigeria. Its not going anywhere. However, any riffraff and alfalfa that does not wish to respect the laws enacted by Lagos State should waka voluntarily out of Lagos, otherwise he will involuntarily be "bused" out on a one way deportation trip to Onitsha.

Lagos does not need Igbo votes to put a Yoruba man in the executive seat. Vote whichever way you want, or boycott if you like.....election will hold and an agbada-wearing winner will emerge.[/quote]Smh.
You don't know that there are tens of thousands of yoruba people working in the SE/SS, especially in the oil and gas and its allied industries.
It seems you 've forgotten that one of the agitations of the niger-delta militants before they got amnesty, was that yoruba indigenes working in the oil sector be kicked out and replaced with niger-delta indigenes.
Don't worry,when you people finally reap what you are sowing now,not even the president can save you.

This is sad.
This is very sad.
And these is the same set of people some misguided igbos are supporting to be president.
Smh.

CFCfan: As far as he was discharged and acquitted by the Court of Appeals, his 'conviction' is rendered null and void.

Thank you very much.
Many Nigerians don't know what "ex-convict" means.
