Somebody once did just that (Onabisi Onabanjo Uni & a Top private uni). What i can't say is how he navigated the NYSC part of things because that qualifies him for 2 NYSC processing as well as Jamb regularisation.

luorquay:
Why haven't they clamoured for the tax relief ever since they came on board? This is because they had no rival to their biz so they enjoyed everything. Who even knows if they were given tax relief and they just kept quiet and went about their bizness?? Now that they've gotten a rival who has/will crash their monopoly they are here crying for tax relief. Abeg make dem pack well. I wan begin use their dish cover my generator so.
It is wrong for govt to give some people advantages at the expense of others.

You have described the process very well, that is exactly what it took to get here. Lots of battles, some lost, some worn - with a lot of injuries sustained too (came close to getting dragged to court once, close to getting arrested a couple of times, got chased by soldiers all over lagos at one time - was dodging from place to place) - but all that one na past history now sha.
I like this post.
People thing IT in general is smooth. When you get employed and they pay you N1m / month, fine. If you have to hussle from ground zero, it is tougher. As a programmer people set their expectation on you with their ignorance. Imagine a client who thinks web hosting is a scam.
Family › Re: I Want To Get Married But My Family Is Insisting I Must Settle Everybody First by Standing5(m): 6:08pm On Oct 01, 2017
hdeeman:
i have always have a very close relationship with my siblings while growing up, which i have tried much to see that everyone is comfortable. i don,t based in Nigeria, but my family has always been my first priority. but everything changed immediately i want to get married. that i have to settle everyone first before getting married. they automatically ganged against me, that if i don,t settle that no one will come for my marriage. this really pissed me off cos this is the same people i have been struggling for over 10 years now. am no longer a kid if i start to settle i will never get married. this is really disturbing me, they only call you on phone when they need something. it really hurt when people you love dearly treat you like this. how do i go about this cos i have decided what ever will happen let it happen, let me look for my own life. i owe no one a dime, every struggle is me and me alone,
OP be extremely careful. Cases like this usually involve life and death type of risk. For people you call close relation to make such demand it shows they can even gang up and kill you. Infact, if you don't do something extremely mature about it I guaranty they will make attempt on your life soon. Make it clear you owe them nothing and things are not as easy as that for you yet.
I say this cos if you keep giving them and you stop it when you marry to attend to your home they will still gang up against you, your wife and children. Cases like this will 99.9% likely involve the spiritual. You maytnot realize that on time. Talk to them about investment and stop acting like FG that shares money. Look at Nigeria, that could be you.

well if you say so each and everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. I have never come to nairaland to campaign for any political party. I always come to nairaland to broadcast and upload pictures of what ogbeni did in his time and also said the negative side of them. Ogbeni is like oyinlola too. Ex governor oyinlola have both the positive and negative side. Ogbeni too has both the positive and negative side. One thing about me is that if each and everyone call your attention to somethings and the person isn't yielding to the correction I think the person need more orientation.
You guys took it personal then o. I tried explaining that abuja allocation is different from IGR but you people saw us as enemies and IPOBs and beasts then. Thank God Osun people are beginning to have small sense.
Politics › Re: If Nigeria Must Restructure, She Must Cut Down Corruption First by Standing5(m): 6:32pm On Sep 28, 2017
igbodefender:
To must Nigerians, restructuring is about weakening the Federal Government in favour of stronger regions.

But if you do that without significantly cutting corruption beforehand, corruption will take hold of the strong regions, and FG would be too weak to save the people of such region(s).
Bigger lie. There will be no case of people supporting the likes of Diezani cos it will amount to her stealing from her 'brothers'. That's jurt one.

of course we will know who fooled us for the last 8 years. Not only that we will know where all these huge loans went into. That's the reason why I want other political party to win massively and exposed the corruption of the state government.
Didn't I warn you 2 years ago ? Ehn. The rascal no longer jumps like a donkey in the media. What about you pictures of infrastructures to justify the huge debt? Is infrastructure paying salaries now?
Thank God I said it. The real pain may still be ahead in the next 15 years for Osun people. Ha ha ha . . . .

freeze001:
The explanation for the bold part is that the north isn't as populated as claimed. You build schools for humans not for large, barren expanses of land yet, official lies ensure that d North is counted as more populous with more states, LGAs and more representation at all levels.

They aren't interested in education, whose fault? Yet they succeed in dragging the entire country backwards by constantly lowering standards just to entice them to school. They aren't even expected to compete meritoriously with their counterparts that's why a Yobe child only needs to score 4 to get to secondary school while Anambra must score 139. Shouldn't there be government policies making it a criminal offences for children of school age not to be in school for instance? Their parents would then be forced to take it seriously too!
Stop wasting precious time educating people who aren't ready to be educated.

BALLOSKI:
I'm a northerner who has traversed the whole of southern Nigeria; of course, this gives me an edge and authority to say a thing or two from experience.

There's a living poverty in the north( what else could make someone leave his family up north and go down south to be a shoe-shiner or mai-guard just to earn meagre change?). Development are concentrated at the city centres. Other places really do not have anything to show.

You'll all agree with me that the crisis in the north-east has its roots in poverty and years of neglect( Davido or well-fed kids can't accept to be suicide bombers).


I served in the east, and for a whole year , I stayed there without visiting home. You can see why I'm angry at Nnamdi Kanu for making that very peaceful, serene and beautiful Umuahia a hotbed of his activity.

Ibo towns are developed and are well planned out; they build their villages(no matter how small it's , you will see one or two very big houses planted in the bush).

Just like every other places in Nigeria , they have their challenges in terms of infrastructural decay, but that is not to say they're the worst hit( I've seen it all in the north).

The little our governors get , they put into use...despite corruption that we have in the system. But you have the governors not doing anything(excluding Chime, Obiano, Ngige and Umahi), and they in turn instigate some of their followers to come online and tag all of us parasites living in the north where their money is used in developing( where the development sef?).


You want 100% resource control, but there's nothing to show for the one you've gotten. You gave them little, they siphoned and you want more for them(governors) . Just Negodu!


Marginalization means if people from the SE are not in key positions of government. But , Jonathan had many of them in key positions and they were heavily represented.
The marginalisation has a chain effect on corruption and the north is the main beneficiary of it.

A man that can't check Fulani herdsmen menace cos they are his kinsmen thinks he will foöl the world forever. Buhari is just the north's reply to Jonathan. The slight difference being that he is seeking to advance the agenda of the core north.
