Useless illiterate, closure of border is to only foreigners and not citizens and permanent residence... Educate yourself and stop spreading information you hear from beer parlour
I don't understand why most people just rant about border closure without minding the fact that the borders cannot be shut against the citizens of a country.

May be the reason why corona doesn't have too much devastating effect on the black man. Chloroquine had been a normal drug for us. And though its usage had been stopped, the left over is still in the blood of many of us and it is been transfered from generation to generation.

Let the production start all over again.

Hurray!!!
This is very plausible. Your hypothesis is worthy of further investigation.

You sound a bit funny. How can you talk about border closure when you were misleading many people here about the warm weather in Nigeria having the capacity to prevent the virus from surviving in Nigeria.

Did Buhari act stupidly by not not closing the border earlier? Yes, he did!

Did you mislead a lot of Nigerians to their possible doom? Yes, you did by broadcasting unfounded statements about a pandemic that was already ravaging the rest of the world.

Maybe it would not be as complex as the apps I just mentioned, but I want it to be a GOOD and FUNCTIONAL online application.

Is this possiblehuh?
Certainly you can. You just need to integrate with a database of your choice and thankfully Django comes with bells and whistles that make the connection to a database a breeze through MODELS.

About to hop on the python bandwagon, I knew the syntax was simpler but now that’ I’ve played with it somewhat I know it’s the language for a sloth like me(this is a joke, I know it’s comparatively easier, but that doesn’t mean it will a ‘breeze’ for everyone)
Trust me, python is a cool programming language and it comes with a lot of modules and add-ons that can make you achieve the seemingly impossible.

However, focus your attention on the modules that would assist in your goal.

For instance if you are interested in:

GUIs - focus on Tkinter
Data Science: Numpy, Scipy, Pandas
Web framework: Django

and so on.

Wish you luck in your quest.

DAY 10
LIST COMPREHENSION



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIq1PhviHCs

List comprehension is another vital way of manipulating lists in python.

for example to print a list of squared values in python, it can be performed as

numbers = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
squaredNumbers = [num ** 2 for num in numbers]
print(squaredNumbers)
The same objective can be achieved with fewer lines of code thus:

for i in range(1,7,1):
print(i*i)

P.S.
Nice effort op. Teaching others what you know is worthwhile. I salute you. Some of us need to find time out of no time to contribute our little token to make life easier for others. Kudos.

I will be lying if I told you the opposite, however I will advise you make use of treehouse, udacity or any other online learning platform to learn.

I would have mentioned YouTube but then it never worked out for me, You can consider that tho. But learning from those platforms gives you a structured learning process with objectives which will help you learn better.

Treehouse is good but you may want to add udemy too.

Tinubu is not my favorite. I in fact dislike him so much I often call him Jaguda!

Understand "his ways of using words", to mean "his wise way of speaking", the sort the wise will understand. He said "let there be" to those it concerns and I happen to think there will be. And since he must have been talking in that same language before today, I understand why he is so influential, despite my dislike of him.
I share your sentiments.

Summary:
Overambitious APC politicians should stop attempting to do 2023 business in 2020 as it is even less than a year since Pres. Buhari was inaugurated for 2nd term. Rather, every APC members should rally round to help Pres. Buhari tackle the many pressing national issues, which have increased with anticipated social and economic effects of COVID-19 pandemic. If Pres. Buhari is not helped to deliver on APC promises, it will be difficult for anybody to even win presidential election on APC platform in 2023. #FACTS

Jagaban doesn't disappoint with his politics sagacity. Give it to him. Let's see what will happen on Tuesday.
I may not like everything about Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT) but I cannot deny the fact that he is a brilliant chap.

You don't have to learn a skill thinking of where you will work. Rather, learn the skill and seek ways to use your acquired skill to solve problems. When you do this, you spot opportunities easily and then you can make as much money as you want.

For instance, Mike Zuckerberg of Facebook didn't learn coding to get employed but he found a way to make money through Facebook. Same thing holds for Seun Osewa of Nairaland.

One thing I can assure you is that if you learn programming diligently, you will make money whether as an employee or as an enterpreneur.

Best wishes.

The emphasized part of your post refers. You might be committing the fallacy of hasty generalization here.

How did you arrive at the conclusion that "men think of girls who live alone as prostitutes".

As long as the lady can pay her bills why can't she live alone? It is only wrong when she needs to hawk her body to pay her bills.

There are several ladies out there who stay with their parents and siblings and you wouldn't like to know what they engage in. Contrastingly, you would find girls who live alone and they do not joke with their chastity.

Why we were fired?
I joined this company last year, few days after finishing my NYSC, they have the highest number of software developers in Africa and I was loving life, the salary is great with breakfast and lunch

They keep on employing so many software engineer with time the engineer become more than the available job, I saw it coming but I don't know what the board was thinking

2. How did the firing process happen?
We have a global (online) meeting which people are asked not to miss, I was not even listening very well to what they are saying, the president said there are more developer than engagement to they have to let some people go, a mail was sent to all impacted people and I discovered what has just happened

Almost 400 people has been fired across Africa

3. Aftermath of being fired… how did you feel, have you recovered, did you get something better?

The company is actually a great one, they brought in pychologist to speak with us, bring in different recruiter, and other stuff, most importantly the payoff was reasonable that I can afford a Mac laptop of almost half-a-million

Luckily for me I got another reasonable job in less than 3 weeks of been retrenched


I always laugh when people complain there is no job in Nigeria, less than 5 month after leaving my previous company I have turned down almost 4 other offers some even paying than my current one

The emphasized part of your post is so true. There are jobs in Nigeria, it is just that a lot of people seeking employment opportunities lack skills to add value to their employers. Employers are not "charity organizations", if they pay you x amount they need you to generate 10x amount (10 times whatever you are being paid).

PropertiesRe: I Want To Quit The Apartment I Moved Into Just A Month Ago. Noise Is Killing Me by teepain: 8:55pm On Feb 28, 2020
Excuzeme:
Thank you very much, God bless you.

I have been reading all the comments from the first and it seems Nigerians generally dont know their left from their right.
Everyone was coming up with some silly, yahoo-type of ideas.

A person has a constitutional right to quiet enjoyment of their house/home/apartment or place of legitimate abode.
That is the LAW.
The Op paid for the house, he has a right to enjoy it.

Now, it is not the Landlord that is causing him harm, it is the noisy and heartless neighbours.
Govt has setup and agency that deals with excessive environmental noise, from any quarters.

He just needs to involves the agency and make sure they take necessary action.

I had a similar problem with three religious houses in my area. I built my house before these religious houses came to setup shop thus, there is no way l would have known what would happen.
These prayer houses will use a Public adress system, to broadcast music, prayers and all sorts (even internet commentary from their favourite preacher) in the middle of the night. At times, it is only two people in on eof these places and yet they are using oublic adress system to pray!
I went to plead with them that they are causing noise pollution and they should just let the PA system face INSIDE their place of worship and not outside, as we neighbours did not ask to be served whatever they are cooking!
Alas, they tagged me "An enemy of God"!
Even when they are doing their friday prayers, they will be mentioning me on their PA and asking members to pray that something should happen to their father so he can let them be in the area! grin

I downloaded a Sound Meter on my phones.
I began to detail the magnitude of their noise using the Sound Meter on one phone while doing a video of my actions on another.
At times, i will put on NTA and let it show the date and time of my video recording and there was a time, inside my bedroom, the noise hit 130decibels! No human can take that.
After proper documentation of my efforts to make them see reason and the level of their noise, times, etc, l packaged my Petition, through my lawyer, to LASEMA and the Agency served them Notice of Abatement after which, they would be charged to Court.

Two immediately took notice and reduced the level of noise but one was forming "I know the Presidency"....until he recieved a Court Notice and that is when it dawned on him that l was not joking!
That is when he began to beg and asked that we withdraw the case, because l was also claiming Civil damages at the same time but separately, through my lawyer. Since l dont really need hi smoney, l amde him sign an undertaking not to use a PA System facing outside his place of worship and that at no time must the noise be greater than 35decibels, if l measure it from my end.

Now, l can sleep deeply and think with my head.
My drift is that we should stop taking shortcuts.
The op should inform his Landlord and ask that he speaks with them or refund hi smoney otherwise he should go and report the people responsible for the noise and the landlord, to LASEMA.
Packing out is not the best option because even where you are going might be serene at first, until your neighbour decides to start selling record and blaring his Speakers grin Will you pack out again? undecided


We need to start prosecuting Churches and Mosques for violating our right to peaceful and quiet existence, include all those poor people who do party on the road, those who sell market and use a big speaker to play unsolicited music, those who operate noisy industries in a residential neighbourhood (mechanics, welders, Grinders, Okadas, noisy area-boys, etc).

What we dont realise is that some of the mad people we see, some of those that jump into the Lagoon, could be a result of mental disturbance occassioned by excessive noise!.
Noise Pollution is not different from smoke pollution or water pollution, all can be deadly if not stopped on time.
We cant keep making excuses for bad behaviour out of fear or reverence for those who dont give a fnck about us.
The things neighbors take for granted in this country are insane.

A friend's neighbour unleashed his dog in a compound of 4 flats and the dog ran after my friend's 6 year old daughter; thankfully the dog didn't bite the poor girl until she was rescued. Can you imagine what would have happened if the girl was bitten?

We should act reasonably in this country and give some consideration to others that might be harmed by our actions or inactions. That is why I always maintain that our leaders aren't the only problem we have.

Forte oil's downturn cannot be hinged on the Nigerian economy. It is like saying that BUA cement's owner became Forbe's billionaire because of Nigeria's buoyant economy.

There are lots of factors that determine if a corporate body would do well or not. Some companies make money both in buoyant and dwindling economies.

The major cause for Otedola's fall from Forbe's list is because of the sharp decrease in the price of Forte Oil and his having to sell his shares from the Company.
