His name is not known and somewhere you fools inserted eze to make it seem as if this useless boy is igbo.

Useless media!!
Zoo media!!

Since when did Dailymail UK become 'zoo media'?

Nairaland has gone to the dogs indeed.


An unconfirmed report from a mushroom blogger is now moved to the front page with zero attempts at verification.

Let this place not turn to 'National enquirer' just because of page views o!

Vutseck:
but wait o


is corruption on the increase or decrease

.

You can't read?

Jolar101:
Is it that APC didn't bribed the right officials of transparency international for removing almighty Nigeria from corruptions list


See the way northerners in our oilfields looting our oil money yet Biafraland and Niger delta regions are suffering from bad governance and lazy and corrupt states and federal government officials.



Here is pipeline Farm road off Eneka road in port harcourt, Rivers state.

Oil producing community.

Excuse me broda.
This community, is it not in any local government? Is that road too big for the local government to fix? Or perhaps the state Governor?


This lazy entitlement mentality you people have is the bane of the Niger Delta.

Not confirmed yet o

Bill Gates has been giving away much of his wealth to charity. If being the richest man in the world was his goal, he would never be overtaken.

Lesson for you is to shun ignorance and try to do more reading. Not everyone in the world sets such shallow goals like you do.

Nonsense.

Keep reporting unverified sums of money. Where are the successful convictions?

People stole money and you are unilaterally offering them amnesty instead of a just punishment.

He's right about one thing. the war against corruption has ended in failure..but that's as a result of how shitty EFCC has been.

Sun newspapers is junk news.

17000 bombs my butt!

Blue3k:
I guess Trump administration is committed to doing U turn on Obama's policies. Nigeria was going towards the Russians anyway.

This sale was approved by Obama before he left

saraki2019:
ASUU should be patriotic

Lol. What is this madness?

Why don't you sell all your property and dash to SAY out of 'patriotism?

70% of the posts on the first page are from Tecno marketers and employees on Nairaland

Just check their post history.

Seems to be a winning strategy for Tecno to pay these people to shill for them on forums and social media.

While the article does make some good points, it's worth noting that University Autonomy isn't exactly the highest on ASUU's list of demands. Funding is.

IMHO, Nigerian Universities are criminally underfunded. Lecturers are severely underpaid and their welfare is not given the priority it deserves.
Part of the blame must rest on the shoulders of Nigerian students who see this rot first hand, yet keep quiet and expect their lecturers to toil in silence. You see the dilapidated infrastructure, the rotting laboratories etc and say nothing. Unfortunately, it seems the main contribution of most Nigerian students to this dilemma is to lambast ASUU anytime they go on strike.

Financial autonomy is not the solution. Unless, of course, people are ready to see school fees rise to nearly the level of the Private universities.

Perhaps this may be for the best. Perhaps Nigerian parents and students would be more invested in making sure our universities work when fees of around 400k per year are levied.

hedonistic:
Nigerian lecturers have always been an arrogant bunch with a misplaced and grossly exaggerated sense of entitlement and delusion of self-importance.

I encounter them often, prancing about with a chip on their shoulders, expecting everyone to bow before them because they are "Dr" this or "professor" that, and expecting to earn mammoth salaries for the reason that they are "intellectuals". They are quick to remind you that "ordinary" local government councilors earn xyz, while undeserving National Assembly members earn xxyyzz, so that should justifiably earn multiples of that.

Seriously, these characters need to be put in their place. Most of them are incompetent hacks anyway, with much of their research papers highly plagiarised or full of inconsequential gibberish, while their impact on their students is close to zero - rehashing outdated theories and spending much of their time in class massaging their own egos rather than imparting any knowledge on their hapless students.

So why don't you take up an appointment as a lecturer so you can 'show them how it's done'?

heykims:
He's got points
Many are roaming d streets unadmitted while some of those above 200 don't clear the 0level to be admitted.
As such, universities admit way below the number they should.
People should please and digest before displaying their ignorance

Apart from his biased testimony, what other source do you have to confirm his claims that universities are 'oversubscribed'?

Sanchez01:
This is wrong. He is not even in the heavy weight class and here you are saying he is one of the greatest boxers of all time.

Lmao. You cannot be serious with this.

Damibiz:
Just call off this crap already

Never. Strike must go on until they achieve all their objectives

TheVictorious:
Lool. Bro what's up.Sorry I've not really been active for some time.

This is the most senseless statement from ASSUU so far.

I also read an article this week where Adame (the education minister) lamented that Covenant University is now ranking better than Federal schools on Webometrics, and I wonder if he is just the minister of education for public institutions only.

We really need to change our mentality in this country because however we view it, private institutions are a plus to the educational sectors and not a minus. And any impact they make as a result of growing to match world standard will be credited to Nigerian educational sector. Hence, government at all levels must rise up and support private higher institutions just like they do for their federal and state counterparts.

How can you quote something and fail to read it?

YelloweWest:
Daziani has said those properties do not belong to her.

If they do why haven't I been arrested??"

Those were her words. This govt should stop lying

Arrested where? In the UK?

Let her visit Naija Na.

Apipia:
There is a law in Nigeria, One man four children, which applies to a woman that bears children, Hence if your so called Suzanne Emma, marries again to a man, who already has a family, or not, with this law drag her to court. As a charge and bail lawyer, I am always ready to dust out my lawyer books

Yeah right. You pulled that 'law' from your arse, didn't you?

Yeah right. Only the gullible will swallow his story hook, line and sinker.

"I love my wife" is something nearly every wife beater says, anyway.

The same Senate that approved a budget with just 6.1% devoted to Education?

Nonsense.

unbeatablerosak:
I wonder the kind of joy they derive from this. some girls too like rubbish.

And the joy you derive from watching someone advocate rape?

Is that not rubbish too?

'Miss Reliable Nigeria'

These guys are clearly taking the piss here. Run out of names, eh?

simplyhonest:
ok...so, will she be prosecuted?... what of diplomatic immunity?

A 'first lady's does not usually enjoy diplomatic immunity.

This case will likely be settled out of court.

While I agree the leaders bear the lions share of the blame, the average Nigerians joins hands in treating medical doctors with disdain.
For example, You see that the Lagos state Govt employs barely 2000 doctors for a population of 15+ million, yet you join in criticizing and abusing overworked, underpaid and unappreciated doctors anytime they come out to protest for improved welfare packages.

Health care improvement in Nigeria transcends improved infrastructure. It also involves making sure we remain an attractive place for experienced, skilled doctors to work. If not, brain drain will continue to happen.

Sagay212:
Meanwhile when will nigerian hospitals upgrade. No wonder our useless leaders are always travelling out for treatment even if they have cold.

When will you be free from ignorance?

What 'upgrade' is needed to handle a simple appendectomy that most Nigerian doctors can pull off with ease?

Sad story, but why would someone with appendicitis not go for immediate treatment?

An appendectomy is a routine operation. Risk of complication is very minimal if a competent doctor is in charge. And this operation is well within the capability of even relatively inexperienced Nigerian doctors.


the post in the OP seems to indicate he held off on treatment until it was - perhaps - too late.

Who made this 'anti cult group' the judge and executioner of suspects?


Basically, this man was murdered.

Eluwilussit:
From the hospital? Person wey de battle cancer na she go come deny allegations? Same reasons Buhari can't address us.

Honestly, if you offer her the chance to be healthy and lose all these things, we both know which she will choose.

Now, i am not saying she didn't steal, we need to prosecute her and also extend this same treatment to people like Amaechi and all past governors and ministers. Even head of states.

Kai, so you're one of the gullible ones that believes she really has cancer?

OAUTemitayo:
Honestly I have never seen a useless group as ASUU.
They are the one managing the Universities and the massive corruption going in our citadels of learning is heart breaking.
OAU collects 18,000 as development fees every year from freshmen and there is not a single project initiated by the school management.
All new projects are either by Education Trust Fund or PTF.
I am really tired of ASUU.
They will be shouting poor infrastructure before going on strike and when they want to call off the strike, it is salary increment agreement you will be seeing.

Quick correction. ASUU isn't in charge of running the universities. The VC, registrar, bursar etc aren't ASUU members.

However I do expect ASUU to monitor what the universities are doing with the share they've received thus far.

General impression is that the money provided so far is making minimal impression.

One day we will talk about how the yar'adua/GEJ administration set us up with this 2009 ASUU agreement.


On the flip side, one must ask ASUU to account for how they've used the money they've collected thus far.

ShyCypher:
Air to ground? Where?

Do you think you can just whip up intimidatin' pictures to fool us?

You could just google up, you know.
According to Wikipedia, virtually all export models of the F7 (our main fighter jet) have been used for air-to-ground operations. Standard load out includes a rocket pod for firing air to ground rockets...And the F7 can carry and drop unguided bombs.

I reiterate again that the F7 is primarily designated as a 'fighter jet'.


Take correction and do more research.
