You need to see the doctor ASAP. You're not so well and we need you to be calm as the treatment won't hurt. Anyone who may have referred to you as a troublemaker may have taken that from your bizarre behaviors since Sunday's match. Kindly cooperate.

And I guess you want to find out prior to meeting one of those guys you've been chatting dirty with if they will change their minds upon finding out you don't look as beautiful, or not in the least, close to your bird-like voice.

These guys chat dirty with you but you respond, don't you? What's your intention for going the "far"?

Of course it's a valid question. Where are these "good lecturers" going to deliver their lectures? In your 15-people-in-a-room hostel? And BTW, I don't know about his/your school, but in OAU, there are a very good number of SOUND lecturers there.
Please help me ask him. And tell him again, that OAU, UI, UNILAG, ABU and a lot of other universities I can't mention have sound lecturers. Makes me wonder what university he's talking about

I support the seeker's opinion because lets face it the govt is faceless and they have their methods thus they can easily foil any uprising against them esp if it aint big enough. Remember one ex-KGB guy that was killed with polonium? Note that it happened outside Russia and I don't think anyone has been charged- they are that good. Do you think we don't have well grounded and aspiring investigative journalists in Naija?( These guys are the ones keep the govt in developed countries on their toes and within their boundaries not one stupid assembly) - but they know that taking on the govt in a lawless country like ours is suicide so they stay in the shadows. This is why the seeker was warned off! A country where innocent citizens are killed by the police who then reset the scene, put guns in the hands of their victims and claim they are armed robbers and the case is allowed to die a natural death much unlike what was afforded the victim? Abeg the seeker, don't even dare except you are Gani(RIP) or you can send the articles from space. For those who want a revolution, trust me I want it too but your litmus test would be this up coming 'light up Naija' campaign. Lets see if you'll attend!
As always, you've proven to be one of the finest intelligent people we have in Nigeria. Don't mind them. I don't know who will watch his father go out with a placard protesting in the face of guns.

When Russia attacked Georgia, they received worldwide criticisms and other countries waded in. The same for Iran. But when Yaradua was busy blowing up Niger Delta who gave a consent to it even though these bloody Americans and Europeans are the end recipient of what the raucous is all about? No one!

@Mr i know it all (Theseeker)

Even if the agreement is signed,those lazy lecturers will still be there,and those your able professors who can't even lecture for 20mins.

we will see what happens after the agreement is signed.
If being curious and knowing more about everything is 'know-it-all' in your books, then I clearly accept that position. Because professors in your school don't lecture for more than 20 minutes, therefore, it's the same in every school? Listen to yourself.

I was at OAU for 3 years and all the time I was there for until now, you have to seriously read as a student and no, the professors there aren't lazy. Maybe they are in your school. If they are, has any of you tried contacting the Senate? Have you tried contacting ASUU in your zone? Have you bother to go through your SUG to protest it in writing to NUC? These are what we did in OAU and I'm proud I was part of that process even though I didn't finish there. Being a student has a lot more to do with it than just reading and sitting exams. You have to be mentally alert, innovative, intelligent and smart too.

TheSeeker is right. This appears to be the problem. No Nigerian student wants to bear the sacrifice; everyone just wants to get in fast, and get out the same way, get a degree, work in some bank and earn N150k per month. It appears everyone is after his/her personal comfort. And believe you me, if ASUU yields to the students' demands and things continue this way, ASUU strike will continue to be a recurrent event in Nigerian Universities for years to come. So why not solve everything ONCE AND FOR ALL, even if it'll take a year or more, so that future generations will never have to suffer this same fate when they also get into the system? But what do we have? No one wants to reason with ASUU. And by the way, ASUU is not being greedy, they deserve the salary increase, amongst other agitations.

Tell me, what the hell are you even learning in the university? How many good lecture theatres do you have in your school? If you are a science student, how many modern microscopes do you have in your labs? How many functioning equipments do you have to work with? Do you really gain anything meaningful at all, apart from just reading your brains out to score good grades? How good are your hostels presently? These and many more are what ASUU is fighting for on your behalf. It seems to me that you lot are only making noise because the house is getting boring and you want to re-unite with your friends at school. . . you are missing the campus grooves. Think deeply, the real blame is on the FG. No one is happy about the strike, but if at the end it works, it would be a worthwhile venture on the part of ASUU, and a meritorious endurance on the students' part.

You know what? You're right. But then, I've reasoned and thought deeply about this too, but guess what? I couldn't think of any other way they can employ to tackle this present impasse. Do you have any suggestions for ASUU?
By the way, read the NLC's position on the ASUU strike HERE.


And just for the records, I'm a student too . . of OAU to be precise. Greatest Ife!!! wink
Yes, I trust my Greatest Ife students to be ever informed and ever articulate. Don't mind these buffoons!! They don't know anything at all. All they do is go to school, read, toast girls, go to boyfriends' houses, hop in and out of clubs, and they fail to get in the know of what's going on about their educational environment. I'm sure not a lot of them know what the "University Autonomy Bill" is all about yet, they profess to be students. I don't see them as being selfish and of course it'd have been the case if they knew any damned thing about their educations, but they are just plain ignorant and they have chosen to be that way, that's the saddest part.

How many of them read papers? None! Because if they do, they'll understand what this is about. How many of them have asked their lecturers what the struggle is about? None! Every year to keep crying for accommodation and ASUU is working on those for you and the appreciation you all can give is tell them to resume and call them names? Ignorance is a predicament and sorry no one can get rid of it but you. Start being well versed with your setting.

@marrisa, I disagree with almost all you said in that your elaborate post. I will blame the government for the actions of its citizenry. In countries where the law is the law you can openly flaunt rules and expect a smooth sail. On a trip to Ghana a few years ago, I took a cab with a pal(Naija boy studying @ UG) and got in 2 mild traffic jam; but all cars were in a straight line. I was about to tell d driver to turn and take the wide space on our right when my friend said: "if na Naija we 4 don tell the driver make hin take this right but if the car in front of him is still working he dares not". I immediately shut my mouth. I didn't need anyone to tell me that if you jump a queue the law will clamp you. Here in Naija you can take a one-way or even reverse on an expressway; but when Fashola came you hardly see that because the law works better now. A good government will put sanity into its insane masses if it makes the law work. We are the way we are because we've been used to doing the wrong things for a long time but a good responsive system can change us. If I build my house on a canal and Govt charges me to court, makes me pay a fine and do time in jail will you go my way?
Thank you. Finally I see someone with some level of intelligence. Don't mind them. They expect my mother to go and make the law and still stand by it. The government should make laws, follow them first, and I will do the same. That's how the mind works, that's the rule of law.

Let's see a chairman's son thrown in jail for doing wrong and see if anyone will go down that lane ever again. I'm sick of these hypocrites or do I say gullible people who think they have some sense up there when it's totally empty.

@the seeker, u really was seeking to make a mockery of urself with that long  and baseless counter.u dint make one bit of a sense. @marissa was very constructive in her approach,bt u just choose to counter her by writing that.u said that u wanted to do writeups for a newspaper and never got the backing of the media? i just wonder which media house in their right frame of mind will accept to publish such senseless jargon. are we just doing things for doing sake or just to show that we are better? one example is the hajj stuff,u said that they thought that it was Nigeria where favouritism pays? and in "your very good opinion",ignorance of the law has become an excuse? so why didnt they load bags of hard drugs into Jeddah and assume that they will bribe their ways through? look 4 jobs in others sector pls cos the media aint 4 u.
Shut that cavity before I make you bolt down some common sense. Ignorance of the law isn't an excuse and who told you Nigerians don't know what law is all about? In your own opinion, followers come first and leaders follow? Stop trying to portray how ignorant you are about common issues. Your marissa is busy making sense from stating unbalanced facts and tell me which of part of my comment doesn't make sense.

Yes, it's good to do things for the betterment of the country and not for the sake of it, but you'll consider doing that all alone? Who helps you? Who supports you? Who shoots you high in the sky? Who makes it possible? The media has been bought, which I'm sure you well know despite your preposterous ignorance, so who else do you depend on? The police, and what's happened to the police? Bought! And from there who else do you count on? The judiciary and when was the last time you heard a fair judgment in Nigeria? You're not being realistic to yourself by living your life off in the books you're reading.

Look at Iran for example, people protested there. They were being mistreated, killed, maimed but they kept the struggle on. The world supported them. They warranted the attention and human right organizations spoke out largely against it. Now that's where I can protest. I know I have some backing. Do you have that setting in Nigeria? How many functioning human rights organizations do you have in Nigeria? How many human rights activists do you have? How many people do you know are jailed, remanded and posed to mistreatment under poor judicial functions? And you're sat there comfortably in your chair telling me I sound stupid when obviously you're wallowing in it and being proud of it.

In your own books, and the way you were taught in your school (if you went to any at all), you were taught that followers go in the front and leaders follow? What exemplary leadership traits have the government laid down for the citizenry to follow? Tell me one. What do you expect of citizens who have been maltreated, behave normal and constitutionally? Where's the constitution? What's it called? Who are the upholders? Keep living your life in the books I say.

In United States, I can decide to join the police and fight criminals without shady doubts. I can go to any length to do whatever it takes to protect the country but will I do the same in Nigeria? No! Why?! If a policeman dies in the line of duty, how many of their families have received better packages from the government? How many? What have the families of slain soldiers who fought for this country benefited from the government? And you expect them to raise a child and let him/her protest for Nigeria when their father's effort was never crowned? Again, I say, shut up that mouth and watch before you talk.

People go on to do things when they know they have some backing. There's no moral standard in Nigeria because the leaders never left any. Why does a local government chairman's child get admission into the university over a more brilliant student, with poor results? Brilliant students fail exams and sme have their sheets sold to rich kids who can have them bought by their parents and you expect morals?

I wrote my exam one time and I was sitting next to a senator's son. He didn't write anything all throughout the exam period and he passed. How did he do that? And then you tell me others won't resort to cheating in exams when they have tried with their mental ability and they have failed? And when some have had their results sold by the exam body? This is being human and not reading some books about how humans should behave.

@ Faakay

Sorry to burst your bubble but we ARE the Government!!

And lets stop blaming the three thousand people in power for the woes of 140 million.

IMHO, you only need to look around to see how the average Nigerian will behave when he gets to Aso Villa. Have you ever studied how traffic jams occur in Nigeria? Usually a driver decides he can shunt a lane, and drives against traffic, then like 50 cars follow him, then voila, we're all shouting and stuck at the same place for hours when we could've been done in minutes, that's 1.

2. I have watched several Network News clips where the reporter interviews a flood victim, who has constructed his house on top of drainage, and he's complaining that see o, Govt has not come to his aid. The same show interviews Nigerians living in filth - not industrial filth o, but human shit and pure water bags strewn acroos their door fronts and the guy is lamenting - the Govt should try and look into this 'issue' - i.e. to clean up his shit!

3. Last years Hajj pilgrimage - hear this - a friend arrived Mecca early from another Country for the pilgrimage and joined the immigration queue for clearance It was quite long but moving and everyone was in line. Lo and behold, naija plane lands, Nigerians disembark and PRONTO, they are yelling at the top of their voices - we cannot follow this line o, ah! - believe me they ALL went or rather shunted STRAIGHT to the front and wrecked a good procedure - DISGRACEFUL.

4.We always complain about how much Local Govt Chairmen are earning - is there anything in the Constitution that prevents us from contesting? seeing as we are the wiser ones who know the solution to Nigeria's problems!! the Nigerian O-bla-bla-bla-ma's

I can go on and on and on and on and on!!!

5. We always want to hold Govt accountable - for what? Boo Hoo too much money goes down the drain on useless Govt projects! How about the trllions we throw away on useless projects? Can we even quantify how much we give foreign countries in terms of legal visa fees, illegal visa bribes, plane ticket bills for summer holidays et al?

Talk talk talk - Naija is bad,  it is Nigerians that are bad - very very terrible - bad maouth and all, and it follows us every where!!!

How many people can go to a bank for a simple transaction and not take a short cut once they 'know somebody'? corruption!

How many of us can joina fuel queue when we 'know' one of the attendants - or know N500 can help us 'shunt'? corruption!

What is the basic definition of 'sharp guy' in Nigeria? and is it not the basic trait every Nigerian aspires to? Abeg!!

As it was rightly said by Winston Churchill, the strongest argument AGAINST Democracy is a five-minute conversation with the voter. That is there o, in Naija, how many of you actually vote?

Puh-leeze!!!
And in your opinion this is what a good country should entail? Asinine thoughts is what you have up there. Before all these things started happening, what was Nigeria like? What were Nigerians like? When two US Dollars was exchanged for one Naira, how many Nigerians were trooping to leave the country? I guess you're looking from the country the decade you were born and not from when it started being in existence.

Nigeria on their home soil are known to have been involved in some kind of misconduct, and that has been portrayed a lot of times outside Nigerian shores. Why do you think there's the saying, "Charity begins at home,"? I'll state my views to counter your points.

Traffic jams occur in Nigeria and people have somewhere to go, then they boycott the long line and want to use an alternative lane. What gave room to that? Isn't it bad roads? Should my father be responsible for the bad roads? Isn't that the fault of the government? Shouldn't they be the one to worry about that? OK, let's assume there are bad roads which channels motorists to take alternatives routes; why aren't there harsh punishments for those who violates such rules? Where are the road authorities? When they catch these people what do they do with them? They take bribe from them and let them go. Is that supposed to be Nigerians' fault? Now, everyone on that line will have the mentality that if they have enough money they can have their way or sometimes be lucky and they are overlooked.

Since when Lagos introduced LASTMA, how many people have you seen violate the law? Since no more crossing the road, use crossover rail, how many people have you seen cross the roads without using the rails? The government acts first and citizens follow. In these countries you're mentioning, government acts, the citizens respond. But in Nigeria, when citizens respond in a positive way, government takes them for a fool and you expect them to not improvise? Think again!

What happened to government providing housing schemes? What happened to the health sector of the government? Flood victims simply are living where they are because they had no choice. Why doesn't the government do something about them  or at least help them before we start to say negative things about them? Is it anyone's wish to live in filth? Who's wish is it to live in a flood-prone area? Simply because you have a choice to live in a better place doesn't mean everyone has it. I'm sick of some shortsighted-thinking people making comments that aren't balanced. Do you know how much land is sold in Nigeria? How many people can afford to build houses? How much does an average Nigerian make daily? How much does an average Nigerian have to spend, at the minimum daily? Again, your comments lack substance.

Charity they say, begins at home. In Nigeria when you wait on long queues what happens? You see people bringing in their own people or the authorities at such places placing premium on who gets attention faster and charging fees. In that case, you see people buying their way through, others resort to disrupting it, and if you protest, you lose your opportunity to get a chance to get tended to as to what regards you've been on that long line for. At universities, you see lecturers sneaking in their girlfriends or potential girlfriends. Now what?! These people may not have been outside the country, probably that was their first time and I suspect since it was Hajj, they might feel the line is too rigorous to wait on after a very long flight and from the way it's been here, Nigerians aren't that patient and used to long lines. Some people can collapse on that long queue. It's not like before you're issued a Saudi visa you have to go to the gym and workout. Be specific and have a concrete point. Do Nigerians in other countries do the same? Come on!

Where were you when some people protested and thrown in jail? Do you know how many times Late Gani Fawehinmi (May his soul rest in peace) was detained despite his prowess in the legal field? But for the fact he was a popular figure, he may have been killed. What's the responsibility of the police? To protect people, right? Who owns them? The society but in Nigeria, the head of the government does. . . you sincerely want to tell me that you'll protest and get thrown in jail and people will stand to that? Please spare me all that sanctimony. Personally, can you tell your brother to protest and get shot my some trigger-happy policemen? How many times have you protested? Can you risk losing your life for the love of the country when in fact, the people will turn around and blame you for being stupid? People will say you're stupid after you're dead trying to protest. I told someone a while back I was going to start writing protest articles in newspapers and the newspaper companies I contacted turned me down because they said I was too young to die. Imagine that! When I heard the word 'die' you think I'd go on, for what? I didn't even have the support of the media. . . so what?

You're not making sense at all.  Visa fees to where? Can't Nigerians study abroad anymore when the state of education in Nigeria is so bad that we can't be compared with other students from advanced countries? What's bad in the fact that I want to go on holidays to England, US, Australia, South Africa, or wherever I choose to? What's wrong in going to another country to work when there's no job and financial security in Nigeria? Is that my fault? Am I to tell the government what to do? Don't Americans, Britons, Europeans, Arabs, Asians go on holidays to other countries en masse?

Next time be constructive enough. Your comments are just blind.

Pay that numskull no mind. He's not worth your spit. Just to answer his foolish observations, the best his tribe could produce Nigeria government with was Obasanjo and another friend of his, an agbero, Adedibu.


@Topic: What do you expect of a man who obviously isn't educated?! Who doesn't know that these animals are living on our money and sucking up every thing in the treasure by virtue of forged certificates?! I'm sure if Yaradua is investigated, though a lecturer, he's forged his certificates too. grin grin

[Quote]Make dinner
It’s a small thing, but significant. Making dinner is a great way to pull your weight in a relationship while you’re in between jobs. If she’s become the primary breadwinner in your relationship, the least you can do is make a meal every now and then. It’s common courtesy, and it will show her that you’re willing to put a little extra effort into the relationship when you’ve got some time to spare[/Quote]

And what if he doesn't know how to cook?

@Theseeker, its pretty obvious u're one of those ASUU guys agitating for 100% salary increase, or you are a 64year old crunchy professor clamouring for retirement age extension 4rm 65-70. Or maybe ure a father who has his wards in Private universities, cos u dont seem to understand the plight we the students are facing, the Strike option has been overused, the NLC president even confessed to that fact, Must they always go on Strike to before the FG meets their demands? So far Ive experienced 10months (6months makes a session) compulsory holiday due to Strike. Strike has delipitating factor on our growth, psychologically,academically, everywise. Misplaced Priorities is the problem of Nigeria. If i had knwn it was going to last this long i wouldnt have come home with just my school bag. I have to a Job now, atleast to make a gain outta the strike. I nEeD a JoB o. cry
Sorry to disappoint you but I'm as young as you can be, maybe even younger than you but I'm seeing things critically. Look at the points I made and tell me which one isn't true. . . . when you make an argument try to be constructive about it and counter mine with points. Who says I don't seem to understand the plight of students? What are your plights? Blame your FG, not ASUU. Who's the NLC president? You don't come and speak of what you know nothing about. Do you know what goes on behind the scenes when Oshiomole back then was agitating for NLC? Do you know how they bribe the heads? What was Peter Okebukola's role at NUC when he was there (I don't know if he's still there)? These sets of ASUU leaders have refused to take bribes and sweep the issues under the carpet and the Nigerian government can't deal with that. Finally, someone has come along to challenge their authorities.

So far, no Nigerian student has come on this forum on an impressive note. It's so sad that I look at all of you and you're still ignorant. It irks me beyond bounds why you all go to school and call yourselves students and you can't critically analyze a situation. It's a shame on you all.
RomanceRe: Where Is The Best Place To Choose A Life Partner by TheSeeker(m): 12:33pm On Sep 10, 2009
It is not where you meet a partner, it is who you meet. Although, very few times, where you meet your partner might matter depending on the adaptive nature of the person in question. You'll be surprised that you'll see someone have friends who are armed robbers yet, he may not have the heart to steal a pen. I, for example, eighty percent of my friends smoke but I don't and never did. So, if you meet your meet your partner in an obscene area, she might really not be a bad person but you need to check if she's the type that adapts to her environment, especially the ills of it.

In general though, where you meet your partner doesn't mean that's who she is. Armed robbers and murderers go to church and as well there are lots of good people who don't go to church but party and club. The individual you meet is who you have business with is who you're dealing with not where you meet them.

Anyone with any case?
Foreign AffairsRe: Nigerian-Yoruba Criminal Gangs In America Busted Yet Again by TheSeeker(m): 12:07pm On Sep 10, 2009
[Quote]I have been in Yankee for over 27 yrs and I am not suprised any more. Most Nigerians think this is back home. Some believe bribery, voodoo will help them when caught. The american law enforcement is very good at catching people. In america everything you do leaves a paper trail. The punishment for this kind of crime just got very severe. The defendents should do at least 5 to 10 yrs and then automatically deported unless a citizen.
The Secret service, which is responsible for guiding the president, is also in charge of printing fake money fraud, credit card fraud and identity theft when used to apply for credit card. I can tell you from experience, the secret service has many Nigerian agents that speak all dialects. The Nigerian agents will blend in and identify known culprits by sometimes participating in the crime.
Personally, I try not to blame anyone in regards to how you earn your dough, but try to use common sense. I have friends that did not know when to quit and now serving hard times in prison. "Oyinbo" man is the worst crook of all. Just imagine how they colonized africa with the bible, enslaved us, slaughtered hundreds of millions of our fore fathers and continue to still rule Africa by remote control.
To most of you that shout Nigerians are crooks in America, you have no idea what you're talking about. All ethnic groups do crime:

chinese and Koreans ( into smuggling fake goods, money laundering, drug trafficking, human trafficking, contract killings etc

Italians ( real organized thieves, union thuggery, fake credit cards manufacturers, best contract killers, truck hijacking, major drug smugglers, loan sharks, mortgage fraud

Irish groups (Political crooks, govt. control, have support in most law enforcement groups, smuggling, contract killers, industry hijackers, remote control of whole countries, major major dope smugglers, best currency counterfeiters

Jamaicans: (known killers, drug smugglers, human traffickers, home invasion crooks

Mexicans: ( vicious contract killers, large quantity drug smugglers, major money launderers, political thuggery

Colombians: ( known contract killers (usually all family members), major drug distributors, money launderers, weapons distributors

Europeans: ( best bribe givers, control of major countries by remote control, best secret societies, best mental science practitioners ( also called voodoo), wholesale killings, best marketers of killing devices, run most African countries including Nigeria by remote control, very efficient contract killers

Do you need more? So please stop complaining about Nigerians and crime. Our only fault is not committing crimes to help our people progress like the europeans and chinese do. Our leaders are busy begging for aid, forgetting that a blessed country in natural resources like Nigeria should not beg but have a plan to spy, steal and copy technologies to move our nation forward.[Quote]

You also forgot to add that the Vietnamese are the best in credit card racket. Egyptians, Lebanese and Indians are involved in bigger scams where an account holder logs online to check their accounts and all the cash will have been wiped off.

Little do people know that these scams are aided mostly by these Americans crying foul all over. Some things are better left unsaid.
