There is no ethnic division between Yoruba and Igbo. It is just the poor miscreants on this forum who thinks a rich Jide in Goldman sachs gives a fcckkk about a poor kunle in Irabijiii and a poor Chukuma in umuezu village, thinks Dr Ndubuisi in John Hopkins gives a fcckkk about him. When kunle and Chukuma comes together and the only thing binding them is poverty, ethnic war begins to brew

Talk of social amenities, you know the North beat any Region in this Country. What you wrote up there clearly shows that, you have never been to the North.

If you want to see the presence of Government, come to the North.

"...and your ability to utilitize these amenities/facilities" ...did you get that part. Just run along, you might be a troll that I wasting time on

Typing:
You must be an Igbo man

your response and our discuss are parallel, perhaps you are just a troll...have a nice day

Typing:
Another lies from Okoro. There are more rich people in the North compared to South. And due to the population in the North, there are also more poor people in the North compared to South. Northerners no dey make mouth or flaunt wealth, that's why you think they are poor.

There is something called "Standard of living" you might have a billion in your account and still have a low or poor standard of living; For example if you do not have good schools around, access to quality doctors and medical care, access to electricity and quality education, access to the Internet and modern facilities. It doesn't matter if the North has 20 billionaires and the South has none, it is the presence of these amenities/facilities that drives up wages, and your ability to utilitize these amenities/facilities that raises your standard of living. The North runs an elitist system and I have seen an mega rich Alahajis, whose daughters were married of at 14 without completing high school, and the closest private school to him is a 115km away. He has money but not a good standard of living. I could educate you further if you wish to know the difference.

Puss360:
So in your opinion, Which part is better to live.. North or South

South of course, your consumption and spending power forms part of your living standard. I can categorically tell you that the water 💦 is not safe for consumption, you hardly see Nafdac officials in North sealing up water companies for non compliance. Salaries are higher in the southern part compared to the North. The Quality of life also is better.

madridguy:
When you tell some people Northern Nigeria is the best region in Nigeria some people will be looking for avenue to fight you.

An average Northern sellers is not looking for too much profit.

Stop acting funny the Northern part has a low standard of living compared to the south, hence things will naturally be cheaper. If you increase the prices in the North, where is the money to buy? Northerners can trek hundred of kilometers if the price of transportation goes beyond their means, have you trekked for 10kms in your life? The last time I took pure water was in my uni days, and no you will not get Nestle or eva water cheaper in the North

Puss360:
Fact!!! An average northerner business person, just needs to make sales with very little profit..
But you see the Southern people, lol, their plan in life is so large that despite selling with huge profits, they still cheat you on top...

Western life. . . Na wetin dey provoke our Arab neighbors to carry bomb go blow America be this 😎

The same Arab that inbreeds?

slimfit1:
The military are spending money on tanks instead of drones, the days of tanks are slowly dying only if its an unmanned tank. We should be spending our money on research on home or locally made drowns. This is what happens if you don't want to modernise our military.
Our resources should be more on our airforce than anything. Work smart not work hard these days, but in this case if you work hard you won't survive the only people that survive are those that work smart.

if you know nothing about military just Skip rather than display ignorance. So you will use drone to occupy enemy positions?? or drone will cover your infantry during an offensive? or drone will fire artilleries to repel an offensive? 🦜

CuriousStudent:
This life no balance oh. And some guys are entertaining women with malt on dates...

Make man present this drink to my parents and not some cheap dry gin.

There are men and there are MEN. May I and my female loved ones not encounter men, but rather MEN

Your father will be living in two rooms and taking a drink of 13million? some poverty cannot be alleviated

arcis:
Werey, pity ur useless life...YOUR next 9 generations can't smell Aso Rock...Keep hating..

What is the special thing about Aso rock? Are there still not very poor people in Daura? Will all Lagosians live above the poverty line after Tinubu's tenure? Niger state produced Babaginda and Abubakar yet you cannot compare Niger with Ondo in terms of development and Human capacity. So what is power without utilisation?

Northern region has been in power from 1967-1999 what did they achieve with it? Are they better of than the average southerner in terms of education, standard of living, Human development and Human capacity? Even if Tinubu remains president till his death, it won't bring out the poor boy in ile-ife from poverty, if there are no educational infrastructure or trade structure to uplift him.

Sirchiboy:
..
Please how much is a bank entry salary for HND holders.

No bank pays their entry level core staff less than 250k after confirmation

Akfrenzy:
Bank job na contract work with lot's of shady agreement 😆😆😆😆

But if u see them inside suits and the way they behave inside bank eeeh , you'll think they're Richer than Dangote 😆

Bankers are rich, I mean really rich. I worked in Treasury sales for a new generation bank for a year and six months and the amount of money I made (from bonuses salaries and deals) a civil servant or Normal worker won't make it in 12 years

swiych:
No, I didn't, u wey do, explain how e take dey possible for girl to submit your assignment as her own, and teacher go still flog u put

the teachers tried if they give you assignments and not egusi to break and bring back tomorrow

UnfairLife7:
government primary school o. I don't think i will advise op to accept it. If it were government secondary school then it's fair. Secondary school that he can get to principal and also get some juicy position before or after retirement. A principal in a government secondary school can earn close to 700k

Principal earn 700k?? abeg stop the joke

swiych:
I still dey imagine how this statement take correct, because primary school teachers are very smart when dealing with children, it's like your teacher doesn't know your handwriting and/or the said girl cancel or tore your name from your book

Did you attend public primary school? If you did, you won't ask such a naive question

LastProphet:
He works in an ngo, if he earns that much then he will get official foreign trips, trainings etc,may times no dime from her pocket

going for trainings abroad is not tantamount to taking a vacation neither does foreign trips which are work related. When you go on vacation, you plan to relax and spend money

LastProphet:
What visa you applied for is the answer, are you given citizenship? Or just visa and you are already concluding you have made it? If it's student visa to US then your suffering is loading, to UK then you will manage with washing nyash in old people's home, if Canada then you good.
Take note that what the person in Nigeria that earn 1.2M can do with the money, the person in the US earning 2 to 3 times in dollar can never ever do it. I bought 2 car tires and did alignment other day for $435, they not expensive type oh. See you better hold that your job with both hands. Be going abroad on holidays and be learning eventually after some time you will know the answer

is it the low purchasing power of the Naira you will use for vacation?

IboHausaYoruba:
Hmmn! Imagine settling for this ridiculous rate. During the dreaded Abacha regime, Naira was 80 to 1 dollar. Now what do we have, naira skyrocketing on daily basis. £1000 is over 1M as at today. That's the lowest a meagre salary earner can make in 2 weeks in the UK. I pity the masses and I always ask myself how do we get to this mess?

Bros I do not support the hardship in Nigeria but your analysis is wrong even if you earn a pound above the minimum wage (£10.42), after tax your salary will not exceed £1500 pounds per month.

Chucks13:
So she is estate mogul pls why not added she s a billionaire?

I noticed my own people like to exaggerate thing like crazy just manage build a bungalow in the village and manage to add pillars to it in the front, use tiles to design lower part of the fence, buy a bag of rice for the women in the street then just manage to buy venza I swear to God the next you will read here in NL is "chai odogwu is a billionaire" he has be a billionaire when he was 7 years old.

They will started comparing him with Arthur Eze, Iwayanwu, Innoson, Dangote, Otedola etc for just buying Toyota Venza.

Igbos are proud people...it is ingrained

Alliswell248:
Na dem. They can't disappoints.
They can do anything to make money.
Noise Makers
Fake and illegal developers.

so Ikwerre is now Biafra land?

jaephoenix:
It doesn't mean the IMGs (International Medical Graduates) are dullards. It simply means we use a different yardstick here. Those IMGs satisfied their foreign trainers who based their assessments on pathologies endemic in their environment, and some management regimen obtained in their climes.
MDCN conduct their exams based on tropical diseases with Nigeria as a case point. Example is Cystic Fibrosis. Its almost impossible to see a Nigerian with this. But its common in the UK etc. So UK trained docs would be quite comfortable managing it. Thus their exams would consist more of such cases. Now look at Sickle Cell Disease. This is endemic in Nigeria and kinda rare in Caucasians. We know how to manage it and thus our exams (and this MDCN assessment) would feature it hugely. A IMG would not know much about it.
I took the exam even though I'm Nigerian trained. Long story

I beg to differ cos the president said the exam is to test their "Basic" sciences and application, I guess at the fundamental level it doesn't matter if you studied in Iceland, infact most of medical text books you read are foreign

Brendaniel:
What this simply means is that most of the doctors that came here are among the worst from foreign countries.

So while we send most of our best to foreign countries they in turn send most of their worst to our country

Some of the best UK doctors are in the US, Saudi, Qatar, Singapore and Australia

DSS1335:
They should be specific of what they meant by foreign-trained medical graduates.
I observed it is very easy to obtain an MBBS/BDS degree from other African institutes compared to European. I won't be surprised that the majority of those who failed this assessment were students who couldn't make it in Nigerian institutions but made it big in University of Sudan, Gambia, Mozambique, Cameroon, Lesotho, etc. Thumbs up to MBBS graduates of Uniport, UI, Unilag, UNN, etc, if they can succeed through the rigorous training here they can succeed anywhere in the world

A lot of Nigerians also fail the UK's medical licensing exam, people fail for a lot of reasons not just academic ability

babajide107:
Shebi you were at the meeting now abi lol when was the balloon incident??when did he go?so to discus balloon, a whole secretary left Usa to go to china and not the offender running to usa to explain..i told Usa is almighty and China and Russian is scared lol

The USA will first seek peace as a form of diplomacy, in her seal we have 13 olive branches and 13 arrows, first we offer you peace, we talk, this is not the first time the US will go to China to seek peace deal on TRADE and other issues. The US first went there in the 70's to open the Chinese market to the world. Now when you no hear word, just like Japan did in 1942 when we preach the peace and you no agree then we use our arrows, and you go collect. So first we pally, we play ball but if you refuse then we decapacitate

babajide107:
Wetin he do do dier??

This is very recent, and it was about trade and has nothing to do with Taiwan

babajide107:
Lol you didn't read the part when Usa went to beg lol😂do you know how many envoys have gone to china after that?do you think Usa just go anywhere.why are dey trying to make peace with China then lol

Do you even think I live in Nigeria that you will be bringing up lies...the most recent envoy to China was by blinken and it was still very recent and it was about trade, their previous meeting was cancelled because of the balloon issues...you either a joker or a kid typing just to past time

babajide107:
Lol you didn't read the part when Usa went to beg lol😂do you know how many envoys have gone to china after that?do you think Usa just go anywhere.why are dey trying to make peace with China then lol

USA beg, please which media? The USA that is conducting mad drills outside Okinawa waiting for China to do pass themselves....forget story just act...

babajide107:
Yes that's why the next one will be nuclear

Leave threats alone, act!!! USA has told China, if you provide military aid, there will be consequences, I am waiting for China to do it so that I can see the consequences...stop these empty threats, no one is stopping you from going nuclear. When Putin said the four Annexed oblast are now part of Russia and an attempt on Russia soil will lead to nuclear war, the Ukrainians are fighting in those oblasts....yet nothing happened...tcheww

babajide107:
You guys are funny saying Russian can’t deal with Poland.If Stalin was to be the president Ukraine would have being finished now..putin is really merciful because of Russian nuke Ukraine today nato won’t do anything.putin is just avoiding casualties because a lot of Russians live in Ukraine but as for Poland a nato country the approach will be different and trust me USA isn’t dat nice.I won’t be surprised if Dey leave Poland alone to suffer afterwards Wagner group is a mercenary and not Russian and belarus so both countries can deny dier involvement and usa will play along

Forget "if ", just do it let us know wait and see the repercussions, talk and do, China dared USA yet Pelosi visited Taiwan and nothing happened! So do it first then let us observe and judge....you don't threaten and judge

IbeOkehie:
The issue with reeling out all these qualifications and achievements is that Nairaland is anonymous, anybody can claim to be anyone.

If you're serious or passionate about your topic, give us your real name and job. Else you can't be credible.

As to the topic....RISK and POTENTIAL go hand in hand. Risk tolerance differs for various reasons and situations. That you treat this simple fact of financial wisdom with disdain makes me doubt your investing chops.

Have a good day.

The PWC thread when I got in is still on this platform
