When Peller offered ₦500,000 for a cameraman role and instructed graduates, including master's degree holders to line up, critics mocked him. But Robert Kiyosaki warned about this in “Why A Students Work for C Students, and B Students Work for the Government.” The book explains why book-smart individuals often end up working for street-smart risk-takers.

The lesson? Degrees don't guarantee opportunity, value creation does.

Peller, by Kiyosaki’s standards, is offering what many “A and B students” are still chasing: a job. And a well-paying one. Instead of criticizing him, ask: Why are master’s degree holders applying for a cameraman job? That question says more about the system and misplaced priorities than about Peller.

It also brings us to the formula:

Ego ÷ Ability > 1 = Failure
Ego ÷ Ability < 1 = Success

If your ego says “I’m too educated for this,” but your ability or circumstances, says otherwise, you're setting yourself up to fail. The harsh truth? Humility plus skill pays. Pride without value doesn’t.

Peller didn’t expose them. The system did. He just put a price tag on it.

YOU ARE WRONG SIR!

Employing a graduate is not the problem, sending a video of the applicant before you even employ them to gain online presence is not only illegal but immoral, applying for a job is not a crime, being over qualified for a job is not a crime as well, I understand he is young and lack the basic understanding of how things work.

ukukaegbu:
He is looking fresher while his enemies are kpaing one after the other

Who exactly is his enemy? Buhari or Tinubu?

You guys are the reason he will never be released, its like you enjoy his pain, his pain gives you the right to brag about the country.

By October, his no case submission will be thrown out and he will be back on the trial.

Mabuggi88:
Tried it when, in 2019? It means you are not abreast with political dynamics of the country. How can you compare the two of Atiku and Obi of 2019 and now?
Below is a breakdown for you.
There is no Buhari on the Ballot, Obi has amassed much more follows than 2019, Nigerians tend to hate the government in power now than in 2019, Atiku seems more out this time than 2019, There is a coalition etc.

Was Tinubu in the ballot in 2019, apart from GEJ, no other president can be removed after first term not to talk of Tinubu, he is more grounded than 1000 Atiku and Peter Obi.

Mabuggi88:
De play

You act like they haven't tried it before, the only chance they had was the last election, now it's the only impossible thing they could do, they will just make themselves a laughing stock if they try.

Best bet, Obi should avoid being VP, remain in LP, in 2032 his chances would have improved.

Mabuggi88:
Bros he said the truth. Obi can not win alone in 2027, it will be very very difficult. Like he said his best bet is to deputize Atiku and they will win flawlessly barring any rigging from the rigging master himself.

For those quoting me, Yes, Atiku can win alone. In fact that was the essence of the OP creating this thread, according to him what he saw shows the North are behind Atiku.

You mean win primary flawlessly right, because even if you add 100 Obi, they (Atiku and Obi) can't become president in Nigeria.

RISQUE:
Shift abeg.

Please make your comments at least 40 word and reasonable.

SeraphicWind:
Wow!!

Suddenly ADC is the biggest thing in Nigeria!!!

God bless Peter Obi... The Rock that will destroy the current evil occupying ASO rock currently.

Sometimes I ask myself, what happened to...

"TINUBU will handle Economy and Shettima will handle security"

Nigeria Lule!!

Stop counting your chickens, an aspirant join a party and you are jubilating, someone that can't come 3rd in an election.
But if a sitting governor join the other, you will say Nigerians are the ones to decide.

RISQUE:
If Atiku emerges, he will still pick Obi as Vice and if Obi emerges, he will pick El-Rufai as vice or Atiku. Anything to remove that man in Aso Rock. We need fresh air in Nigeria. We don suffer too much.

All the names on your list can't make a dent, those are just babies, lets see how long they can unite talk more or win.

ohigus:
If obi and Atiku put heads together them fit give am run Sha, but pride no go let them see am that way, later they will b shouting our mandate. This is democracy

Add more heads, they will lose.

Mark my words in 6- 10 years, he will be classified as the best governor in his time, the only person good enough to be president of Nigeria.

2036 Mark it

inoki247:
Lol I don't have problem with anybody employing anybody...

But people attributing the poor economy to who's employing them is what I don't understand...


In the West there are Alot of uneducated folks employing people with first class...

If you can't think outside the box then you should be ready to apply for any available job so you don't turn to beggar...


Head to head sef a Carpenter, Plumber, Truck driver, electricians even Vulganizers makes more money than PHD and MSC holder in the West so all this noise about education is what I don't get..

It's only in Nigeria you call carpenter "ordinary" in the west they attend technical schools, get certified, they are different from laborers or workers, those are specialized skills.

Talking about noise, just because our educational system is outdated doesn't mean what they learnt doesn't have impart, we have engineers, builders, surveyors, scientists, lawyers, well grounded.

Nigeria culture on the other hand doesn't reward intelligence or hard work, just sentiments, man know man, a man will prefer to employ a female or employ a man recommended by his female friend because he is interested in her, just few acknowledges hardwork.

Riversides2003:
That PDP win I’m sure they just dash them make he no look somehow lol

He won pure and simple, nobody cares how it looks, you think the candidate in that local government care, if he could win it he won't care if the whole world is against him.

Iamsane:
Contradictory dodoyo.....oversabi itk.
It is football. Get maximum satisfaction and move on.

It isn't a contradiction, it was deliberate.

Politics is not football, you can't just pick a club and remain their fan forever, you can decide to switch.

Who dey lose? The people

Only those that put politics on their head, it's not football, get maximum satisfaction and move on.

onome25:
there are some BOT humans here that support this evil party called APC🥵
They are always in every thread generating BOT likes for Thier deceptive self as if likes matters🤪
they are the paid miscreants from APC to always attact innocent nairalanders at every thread but they will fail 2027🥵
sai ADC!💪💪💪💪💪

Forget APC, why ADC? You think changing the name from PDP or LP to ADC makes any difference.

LP is obedient arm of the party spearheaded by angry ipob.
PDP is the corrupt branch of all former looters.

This combination fools no one, I might hate APC, but, I can't even entertain the idea of this combination, and for the record it's up to us, not you.

Emmacolinho:
We nor really send you for here.. if you like be chairman for that way e nor concern us here we just want to chase the Druggie out in 2027

And somehow you call it coalition, just keep wasting time, Atiku should be able to bring everyone from his domain, same with Peter Obi and the likes, leaving them behind just implies they are not ready to fight.

greggng:
Here are the facts

She broke one of the senate rules
She didn't apologise
Senate suspended her for 6months

The court is now telling you that her suspension of 6months runs contrary to our constitution..The maximum for such offense is 14days . Two wrongs don't make a right. Law makers shouldn't be law breakers

Read the last two paragraphs and stop confusing yourself.

That I find it excessive - opinion
That in my opinion, this part is clear
That the Senate has the power to recall - opinion

If a person is arrested and locked up, some of his fundamental rights is suspended, just as a suspended senator can't have same rights as every other senator, she was suspended for a reason.

The issue here is, the court should have invalidated the reason for her suspension, that judgement would have been a different story, this one is just an advice, can't be enforced.

004gist:
But you can believe what ever u wish.

He has uploaded the paper for u to see.

It's not a ministerial appointment rather for them importers to get their goods cleared.

Can you read at all, the heading said Tax Force, you are insisting on a different heading.

To get that kind of appointment, it's just like a ministerial appointment, he was involved in the politics don't downplay it.

Authority1o1:
Okay...

There is not a single class of people anywhere in the world who project more than Baterians. They find fault in Obi, not because he is guilty of any, but because they can't believe someone can be so clean, unlike their paymaster, so they project the faults of their paymaster on Obi.

This action Obi has taken to clear the air is borne out of the respect he has for sane Nigerians, not some rudderless persons tapping away on their phone screen day and night.

Have you ever seen an appointment that doesn't involve politics, the fact that he was appointed by Abacha means he was involved in the politics and was trusted by Abacha.


Apapa Port for that matter, even Lagos state can't appoint someone for that position, there must have been a lot of lobbying and political trust for Abacha to appoint him.

Tomorrow he will be wondering why his visa is rejected, not everything is cruise, if you take a loan pay it back.

Shawarmagirl:
Did Obi do local government election and swear in elected members or not?

How is that relevant, if someone award 1 million contract 2 months before he left office does that count as contracts.

He just employed people who he won't pay, just creating problem for the incoming government, if the local government election was important, why didn't he conduct one in his first tenor, or immediately after his second tenor?🙄🙄

SalamRushdie:
When ADC takes over this law will be used to jail many Agbados then because they are tribalists

Take over what? Their 3 bedroom apartment or what?

Their lose will be monumental.

christejames:
This one don finally get mouth




Wike will be pissing in the pants now

They just handed him PDP, he is in a fantastic mode right now.

Nobody can drag PDP with him anymore.

LP is dead as well, this is the biggest downfall of Peter Obi, he should have built LP, wait till 2032 and then Mount a comprehensive campaign, now he will lose, almost all of his political capital, and when they hand him a VP slot, he will either swallow his pride and accept or leave, either way the end of his career.

FriendsAndFans:
Seems there are some sexual infection that causes those nasty recurring blackheads you call pimples.
You need antibiotics

That is a lie, I still pimples, nothing related to sex, mine is caused by saturated fat, even the once found in animals can't be consumed.


Another thing I discovered is touching my face, I had to start wearing hand gloves to stop me from touching my face.

Christianoir:
There is this neighbor of mine, I haven’t seen him with any girl, only guys. It been 4years in this apartment I’ve could it be that he is gay? I’m suspecting him tho. He always hang around boys nd boys do visit him, in the morning him and a boy will be leaving the house in the night both masculine and feminine boys . The boy you see today with him, u won’t see that same way with him tommorow it another boy that you will see…

The neighbor are already gossiping about him, calling him homo behind his back…. He doesn’t make trouble sha but I wonder how a man will be and he will flocking around young boys no girl… haba a wondering mind might wonder… could he be gay or if you’re the beighbour won’t u think he is gay.

This is very wrong, you can conclude he gay just because he doesn't have a boyfriend, I for one hasn't had any girlfriend for over 6 years, doesn't make me gay, having guy friends doesn't mean he gay either.

Not everyone enjoys the company of the opposite sex, most times a lady is just a distraction.

Justnation:
Jonathan is a good and detribalised leader.

This is what PETER OBI would have done also.

Tribal leaders we have today would have nominated their own irrespective of competency.

Vote PETER OBI , forget tribal sentiment

You are joking right, you mean yes Daddy is detribalised?🙄🙄

Still divided

IBenardoo:
I am too reserved, and i dey mind my business. This one is definitely my dad's

Mine is worse, got both from my dad, reserved and a stoic.

I practically have to stay away from people if not, they can use the hell out of me, with me complaining.

ActressAbimbola:
APC is a satanic party from the pit of hell.

LP is a holy party from heaven, so many children on nairaland, emotional children at that, you think calling it a satanic party will make a difference, people are interested in joining church of Satan if they can get money.

Nigerians kill themselves and use their father, mother, brother, sister, friend, anyone for money ritual, how satanic should it get more than that, Nigeria is the only country nobody should be using the SATANIC word like we care, even if Satan appears with a label on his head, Nigerians will obediently follow him if he shares free food, money, cars.

Nigeria youth that are so engrossed in yahoo yahoo, and you want to talk about Satanic party.🙄🙄

franchasng:
Davido is a wonderful guy, very mature and reasonable. I wouldn't doubt the possibility of him becoming a big political figure in future, I will definitely support him

Makes no sense, he is a musician not a politician.

That one that makes noise everywhere is mature, I doubt your maturity.

This is the helpline for underworld,

nnachukz:
Why is this government always afraid of rallies from opposing voices?
Even peaceful protest that they themselves instigated and participated in when they weren't in power, they now see it as coup or even treason or something worse.

You can read right, a case about it is in court, that implies nothing out the case should be discussed until the conclusion of the case.
