some of those guys are clearly joking though....for example the guy that mentioned Wes Morgan...Morgans from Jamaica

blackpanda:
Grow up and stop thinking with emotions! Violence never solves anything. And btw I doubt the fulani herdsmen are on NL here reading my comments

Quite wrong. Throughout the course of history, violence has solved a lot of things. It was violence that solved the problem of Adolf Hitler, was it not? The world is filled with evil, and there will always be an abundance of evil and unreasonable men who will not be persuaded to become reasonable. History has shown time and time again, that violence is sometimes an unfortunate but very effective and acceptable means of solving certain problems.

Right now, virtually the whole of southern Nigeria is under siege as these "herdsmen" carry out wanton attacks wherever they please. The primary security apparatus of the country has failed woefully and as such, we now face desperate times during which desperate measures must be deployed to protect the lives and livelihood of innocent citizens. Will there be collateral damage? Quite possible. We do not always have the luxury of choosing between the absolute good and the absolute evil, and we must have the courage to do occasionally unsavory things.

As to the assertion that arming the hunters would lead to another crisis, you have assumed that there is no means of controlling them but is that factual? Most of these associations of artisans such as hunters have well developed means of identifying their members and if any of them runs afoul of the law, then their leadership, in partnership with the police, can hold them accountable.

Accounting, because most Economics and Business Admin graduates are still switched to Accounting through ICAN or ACCA.

All the more reason why one should not focus on accounting at undergrad level.

I would say if one has the option of furthering their studies either by doing some professional courses or at master's level, then undergrad economics looks like the smart move. Economics is more challenging than the other two and gives you a solid grasp of principles which are indispensable for business. You can then decide to go the biz admin route by doing an MBA, or go the accounting route by obtaining a professional certification such as ICAN or ACCA. Switching to economics is nearly impossible without an economics qualification at undergrad level.

If you have solely the option of doing one of the three, i would advise that you opt for biz admin as it will give you a reasonable amount of knowledge in both economics and accounting, as well as other critical areas such as finance, operations, marketing and HR. Essentially, you will be able to fit in anywhere with a good biz admin degree.

I think most of you really need to travel. By the time you jam fuel prices in some countries at the equivalent of 400 naira per litre would you commit suicide? You would simply adjust.

The funniest part of it all is that the people ranting about the price hike the most, probably do not drive!

I can bet on this.

If you try to go global, the competition you will face will be immense. From the description of your blog, you will be in competition with sites such as Youtube. You stand no chance. If you try to go global, you will find that:

1. You will be unable to serve the Nigerian market well, if at all
2. You will not be able to reach the global market at all

On the other hand, you could target Nigerian markets much more effectively, and Nigeria on it's own already has a huge market you can work with.

It's always safer to start with a niche and expand from there if you must.

Spent the night at the office...the grind continues

DharmyYinks:
Your intro is lengthy same as your explanation but the worst are your points. Not as cogent as they should be.




All in all nice one!

Thanks for weighing in. Your opinion is valued. I kinda disagree with you on the issue of how cogent the points i've made are. Care to share more light on your reservations?

EnigmaticEnigma:

Loool... u are clearly traumatized. Further proof that Nigerian girls can be wicked

EnigmaticEnigma:
hmmm, friendzone

singing, "i don't wanna go there"

"we should never go there"

you sound like you've already been there bro

tales by moonlight

Okay, I’m pretty sure you’re giving this post a pretty weird look like, “did I just read right”? You did. I really do think you should be glad if you just got friendzoned. For the avoidance of doubt, yes we are talking about the same friendzone where you get a front row ticket to see the love of your life, devote herself and her love to another man while you wear the title, “brother”. a.k.a, “the handbag”.

Getting shut down hurts bro but this is no time for pity parties. While you are there acting depressed (don’t let me hear that you cried about it o), and day-dreaming about your crush having a dramatic change of heart, she is out there somewhere having the time of her life with some guy.

Most regular guys have been in the friendzone at some point or the other and trust me, no one enjoys it. But not enjoying an experience doesn’t mean you can’t or shouldn’t be thankful for having it. Many times, painful experiences bring growth, at least, if you’re wise enough to learn your lessons. Here are 4 reasons why I think having the door shut in your face is not so bad, after all:

#1. You are forced to face the truth


The reason you are so in love with that girl is, more or less, probably because you think she is so special that you can’t help but fawn over her, and you are convinced she is the one for you; the problem, though, is that no matter how many times she says she loves you, she is always going to add this caveat: “but not in that way” because you're not special to her in the same way.

Yes we like to tell ourselves that everyone is special in their own way (I wonder how one could be special in another person’s own way?), but if everyone is special then inherently, no one is naturally special. More likely, we are not all equivalently special.

If you accept this logic, which I think you should, then you should realize that people have individual traits, either natural or developed, that make them genuinely, or relatively special, and you have probably identified some such traits in your crush.

If she doesn’t reciprocate, then you need to ask yourself why? What is it that she sees or doesn’t see in you that makes her feel you are not special enough for her? If you can figure out your deficiencies, then you will be equipped with the tools you need to improve yourself.

#2. Value wins the race


You probably thought being a nice, sensitive, funny guy, and carrying her handbag all over the place would do the trick for you but you have just learnt from experience that it doesn’t work that way anywhere else but in your head.

Fortunately for you, you have also just had a practical lesson in marketing: you must create value in order to receive value. Success in business and marketing will be had by giving people exactly what they need, instead of forcing what you think you have to offer, down their throats. Thus, in your dealings with people, you must always ask yourself why exactly anyone would want to part with their measure of value (whether it be money or beauty or love), in exchange for yours.

At the heart of the matter, the question is, “what have you got to bring to the table?”. Whether you’re running a business, looking for a job or chasing a girl, keeping this in mind will help you plan appropriately.

#3. You’ll learn to make smarter choices


If she shuts you down, it means she was never right for you in the first place. An ancient proverb says, "the wise general knows that the battle is half-won by choosing the battlefield carefully". Similarly, you will need to choose your targets carefully.

This is another lesson you could use in other areas of your life, as you will continually need to set realistic, and achievable goals in business, leadership, and even academics.

#4. You’re learning about women


“Men are from mars, women are from Venus”

If you’re the average guy, you are probably going to have a lot of dealings with women throughout your life and you better learn how to relate with them early. If you haven’t had a lot of romantic experience, or very close sisters who had a lot of male attention, spending some time in the friendzone is one of the best ways to learn how things work on Venus. You’re going to learn what you did wrong, what other guys are doing right, and how best to relate with women.

With time, you will also learn from your experience in the friendzone that there is really no woman that is too special for you to walk away from if you have to. Right now, you’re probably thinking of that girl whose handbag you are (some offence intended), and getting ready to refute me; don’t even think it bro, or I will find you and slap you back to your default settings. :p Seriously.

Take it from me, though; with time, you’ll fall out of love and fall back in love with someone else who you’ll think is even more special, and then you’ll wonder what the fuss was all about. In essence, you should think of the friendzone as being a place where you could learn all these valuable lessons that will make you much better not only at dealing with women, but in other areas of life as well.

Just don’t spend too long in class bro.

So you couldn't confidently stroll in to the pharmacy and say "may i have a packet of sanitary pads please", pay for it and continue on your way?

In the first place, you bought the biggest size of ice cream and you sat waiting for the girl to offer you some? You now have come to report yourself on Nairaland. For what?

Why are you some Nigerians just misbehaving like this?

Seems to me like you guys are just looking for something to laugh about this afternoon. That man looks like he is looking at a person beyond the lady, and his facial expression is not one of sexual or romantic interest but looks more like someone said something that caught his ears and he looked up from the handshake, to pay attention.

Further, the man behind him is looking in the same direction and laughing. Adding weight to my theory that someone at the back of the room said something funny/interesting.

adeniyisamuel59:
You will be remembered in due time when the change you expect does not come.

Hehe see this guy... remembered for what?

Don't forget that no matter which side of the debate you are on, what we both want is a better Nigeria.

onac16:
was that your opinion when Jonathan wanted removing it?

Yes of course.

Hmmm...I have never quite understood how some men enjoy having sex with women in pain.

How??

The removal of subsidies of any kind is always a smart economic move. We must not be short-sighted, and give in to the pull of immediate gratification.

I smell lies

how can a planned attack be prevented because kachickwu is 'humble' through a phone call







it is either the agbero that called kachikwu is high on otueke weed

or kachikwu himself is high on something higher than otueke weed













I know that zombies will swallow this lie as usual

Brother, truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.

Not quite the security expert but those operatives are meant to be facing the crowd. If someone came up behind them with a weapon or even snuck up and went under their legs, how would they be seen in time to stop them?

If you're going to put on a show of force, at least do it right.
