Nigerians re now so absorbed on internet and social media like we are the first one to experience the evolution of the internet.

Real revolution won't start from Twitter. Those people are never serious. Real revolutions will start with a few peoples match prompting others to follow. Just like Sudan where only 5 people started without online sensitivities then became 50, to 500, to 50000 and more.

Two days time if sowore is yet to be released Twitter warriors would have started trending with another thing.

All these our leaders know.. they always know that we are not ready for the fight. Buhari didn't call us lazy youths because we lazy about but because he knew we can never fight for our rights.

And that we aid and abett the leaders to steal.. followers are the real problems in NIGERIA leaders are only getting into the sordid situation because we stand for everything.

A bad follower can never make a good leader. Most followers who think they are Saint today just give them the opportunity watch them become worst...

Truer words have never been said.

It may not be hypothetically but it actually is in this age and time.


Degree gives you access to some things that ordinary SSCE would never give you access to. You get to work in formal environment and know how to manage people and how they think not to talk of the economics of managing an economy’s finance. The process of getting degree its self has a learning curve that is not obtainable anywhere.

The probability of a non degree or its equivalent holder performing far better than a degree holder is like zero.

Basically the intricacies and mental comprehension of a degree holder can never be compared to that of a school cert. holder. There is limit to the kind of exposure a school cert holder can have.

Well, your submissions above should hold true but some Nigerian graduates are actually a disgrace to the institutions that graduated them.

I have seen some school cert holders trounce some degree holders in their own fields.

Like all things in Nigeria, the tertiary educational system is bastardized. It would shock you to know that some of them cannot even string together a sentence in English which is the official medium of instruction.

Apart from joke, it is laughable. in a refined country it can't happen. i know people will be asking what about Zleneski of Ukraine and Weah of Liberia. this people are not of same level with Ademola Adeleke, they are intellectually sound unlike that dancer.

The comparison with George Weah is not even applicable because he went for further education after losing the presidential election to Ellen Sirleaf on his first attempt.

Before he became Liberian President, George Weah had bagged both First and Master's Degrees.

I was at the kegites world gyration that night, all the way from mother shrine Ibadan, it's was indeed a bad day, rip to all the dead. Yemi Ajiteru a great kegite comrade...Rip

That incidence in comradium inspired the statement "ife '99 awa da. Eni ori yo o dile" It was a sad day! Rest on 'Africa'. Respect to archivarian world chief "Dexter".

Timil:
I've been thinking of this but when I think of how much we love each other and how young the relationship is I feel like staying in the relationship.

Which do you value most; your life or the love you have for her? In any case since you feel like staying in the relationship, our advice may not be meaningful.

Kingosytex:
Buhari's refusal to release Elzakzaky will certainly set this country ablaze. Nigeria is yet to recover from the boko haram menace and Buhari is already inviting another trouble


Those shiite guys are deadly!!

Those guys have always been deadly. GEJ had some issues with them too.

Telkart19:
The fact that a pastor violated his marital vows should be a source of concern to Nigerian Christians

My brother the way fellow Nigerians glorify the misdemeanors of people in authority is shocking.

Handsomebb:
May be with their skills if harnessed into proper channel could better the country, just few days back a woman was caught producing peak milk.......WHAT DO U THINK.

Who should harness their skills? They are entrepreneurs, they are the ones to channel their skills properly. Besides, I do not see any skills in faking other brands just by coloring ethanol and packaging same.

These are criminals and their likes should never be encouraged. It would shock you how much money they have made while "selling" kidney and liver diseases to people.

buharitill2023:
they are not lying, the idiotic pig pastor actually has sex with more than 30 of them, but it was not rape

Well, if you admitted that he had sex with all 30 of them you can't say he didn't commit rape because in Bisola's case she was 17 hence she was below age of consent (18). As the law stands, anyone who sleeps with anybody below 18 is committing statutory RAPE.

I think that Nigerians have a very limited understanding of what constitutes rape and that is because the law enforcers and our courts are not treating this scourge with the attention it deserves.

jrusky:
But the question is who is the person that started this nonsense news? But there are Eze Igbo everywhere nah beside this fulani of a thing has be existing in Lagos for a while so what is the fuss now

The intention of these purveyors of fake news is to cause a civil war. My message is that everyone loses in a war among brothers.

blackpanda:
Watch how ignorant bigots will start attacking the woman to protect the perpetrator

Our problem in Nigeria is very complex

Followership is a bigger problem than leadership in Nigeria, in my opinion.

I feel sorry for this country when I read such comments where the lady being the victim is being vilified.

Most of the cretins making jokes out of this lady's ordeal are closet rapists.

israelmao:
Are the Yahoo boys armed?

Their victims at home and abroad wouldn't find this funny.

The victim who went into bankruptcy and became heartbroken as a result of their actions would not find this funny.

israelmao:
I will continue to say that arresting these guys cannot fix the problems,Yahoo business gained more ascendancy and became more rampant because youth unemployment is alarming that is not to make an excuse for them but honestly Nigerian worsening economy is one of the contributory factors.FG can just gather those that have been arrested so far and train them in positive ventures that are ICT-related and also patronize their services or products as the case may be.This is one out of a thousand ways to refocus or redirect their minds from fraudulent acts.

If FG were to gather the yahoo yahoo boys and retrain them, what should be done with armed robbers, kidnappers and the rest. "Country hard" is not an excuse for criminality. Get rich quick syndrome is the bane of our society.

Alexis11:
Lol... Give a dog a bad name so that you can kill it easily.

what is the proof that it is Nigerians that are committing those crimes

Sadly, you may not need proof to know that Nigerians committed those crimes.

We make it easy for people of other nations to stereotype us because even the crimes we commit here and glorify on the altar of "country hard" no be for here.

As Nigerians we must consciously shun crimes and condemn such whenever they occur so that we can earn our respect in the global village.

linearity:
If you look at percentages of Nigerian non immigrant visitors in 2015, 2016, 2017; you will find that the number keep increasing, hence the corresponding increase in denials.

When prior non immigrant visitors refuse to honor their obligations and return back to Nigeria, the embassy not only tracks it and take notice; they also use those feedbacks to re-evaluate their visa process...e.g. the story or ‘packaging’ trend that led to a visa issuance in 2017 but have high non-return rate, will make the embassy to start questioning the intentions of those with the same ‘packaging’ who they are interviewing in 2018.

Very sensible post. I wonder why this post doesn't have some shares and likes.

generationz:
How does one deal with this issue of sales personeel theft , especially when you are not physically present to man them?

What about having an IP based CCTV camera installed to deter theft by the sales personnel. They aren't that expensive anymore.

Johnnyessence:
Thanks to bode George, Pa Adebanjo and other dogged June 12 Fighters for exposing him and speaking out about the struggle.

I hope you are not attempting to rewrite history. Please humour me by explaining how Bode George is one of the dogged June 12 fighters.

AustineCJ:
Useless youths....most times,if not for the sake of our unborn kids,I think we deserve the kind or leaders we get.

It is really pathetic. We not only deserve the leaders we get but the followers are actually the leaders because it is from followership that leadership is drawn.

A number of ex-yahoo boys are already in the national assembly and some of them would find themselves in executive arm; the question is what kind of governance do we expect from them?!

micellgevity:
How can I make money from the site u create?

If those guys can answer your question they won't be here advertising website for 10k.

Racoon:
Yet this same Jeremiah Useni was among the senior army officers in the Abacha government that leagued together to truncate the mandate Nigerians overwhelmingly gave to MKO Abiola on June-12 1993.

I couldn't have said it better. Jerry boy as he was fondly called by Abacha should have advised Abacha back then. Abacha is not here to defend himself anymore so expect more people to dissociate themselves from the stupidity.

In fairness to Abacha though, it should be said that MKO didn't die in his custody. MKO's death would forever remain a blight on Abdusalaam's career.

jaxxy:
They probably felt they didn’t need it for political mileage at the time or see any particular advantage it offered them. I don’t blame Buhari bt the timing was suspicious and we know thAt.

I do understand your view but your point itself is an indictment on the ex presidents. It would appear as if they didn't display sufficient emotional intelligence on the issue.


We all do things for a reason; you and I go to work daily so that we can make money. Nobody can and should question why we go to work to make money.

The propriety or impropriety of our actions is what matters, not our motive for doing the right thing.

jaxxy:
I don’t understand what Ure talking about. He did every damn thing leading up to his election. It known worldwide that it was a re-election strategy and we applaud him for his ingenuity. Why wud he do it and then reverse it after his election when he’s not crazy, who does that? Pls say Smtn else.

OBJ or any of the other presidents after him could have done same for political expediency if they cared so much about their political capital. Buhari shouldn't be blamed for this decision.

Gandollaar:
Soyinka should shut up! He was part of the wicked crew that foisted the coupist on Nigerians.

How exactly did the prof force Buhari on you. When he supported GEJ in 2011, did he force him on us? People's electoral choices should be respected. Except, where it is proven that Soyinka engaged in multiple voting for Buhari we should let the man be.

GEJ and PMB should be commended or chastised for their actions or inactions. You can assist in getting someone employed but you can't help him/her to do the work for which he/she is employed.

Jen92:
Was it not obvious he will win? APC is majority. Wont it be stupid if Ike wins?

But the shocking part is that some PDP senators voted for him against Ekeremadu. Shows that the party is not as united as we are made to believe.

Nigeria Runs a non economically feasible Civil Service

*Ministry of Works in all states and FG hires Engineers and other workforce to over bloat its payroll yet Issue out all construction works to Chinese Engineering and Construction company

*We have Ministry of water resources with thousands of staffs across the federation, yet every body buys portable water or construct their own boreholes while the ministry workers goes to secteraite to gossip and play around.

*NNPC and DPR highers workers periodical, and has one of the highest salary and allowance of any cadre of workers yet they contract supply of petroleum products, they contract refinery and even contracts mining of crude

*We have schools that cant even justify their annual budget by executing a research project or at least producing Innovative Graduates

You have captured the problem(s) aptly. When the talk about the minimum wage came up.sometimes ago, I asked a friend how it would be funded.

Majority of the Nigerian workers are not productive in the true sense of it.

distributeinc:
Most illegal immigrants are not well educated, being a graduate in a Nigerian University don't mean you have brains... this is not even the point of this discussion...stating that most Nigerians living here are not living good lives here is a fallacy, just because you get by living in a cold country, as a second class citizen...I rather live here.

Quit responding to that guy. What he calls Vegas is actually someone's slum. The riches he thinks he possess is someone's poverty! Many folks in Nigeria jet out of Nigeria and return home living their lives.

Agbaletu:
Is the guy currently in a good financial standing to pay back?

Op, this is the main question. I asked the same question although couched in another way.

I am compelled to contribute my token because of the anguish I feel you are going through.

That said, you need to be specific as to what you want to achieve by involving law enforcement officers.

1. If you want to just punish the guy for his indiscretion then it is okay the rest of this post may not be necessary.

2. If your sole aim is to recover your money then you need to find out if this guy has assets that law enforcers can confiscate if need be; landed properties or other valuables. Additionally, can you help locate the guy whenever he is needed?

P.S
Are you guys from the same tribe? SFU can help you with this recovery but that demand is outrageous.

The value involved may not inspire the FCIID operatives as they usually go after the bigger stuffs.

Where are you located right now, Lagos or any other state? If you provide these details, you might get further assistance on this platform. Cheers.

davillian:
What happens to the assets forfeited to the FG.

Then the lawmakers should make laws that regulate and clearly spell out what can be done with forfeited assets instead of attempting to whittle down the powers of the anti-corruption agencies.

This attempt by the lawmakers is shameful and would not bode well for the masses.

aolawale025:
Why not ask for then papers formally? Must everything be dramatized

Asking for papers formally from MTN might give them enough opportunity to cover their tracks.

MorufuAtanda:
You are another hypocritical irritant just like hungerbad was, better learn from this situation and change for the better. A word...

Hello! Why are you bickering over the political choices of people when we are all mourning the departure of a great mind? Let us all remember not to mock anyone with possible death because physical DEATH is an inevitability for us all. Whether we are pro-PDP or pro-APC or pro-any-other.

Fare thee well HungerBad! Adieu!

P.S.

I didn't know that your disagreement with HungerBad was based on the fact that he taunted IPOBs that were killed as you stated; I am unaware of that side of him. While I don't support anyone doing that I urge us to remember more of the guy's good deeds as no one is perfect.
