The major problem is not the fact that job is difficult to get in Nigeria, my major problem is job buying that is now a norm in our nation. You buy job ranging from 200k-4m depending on the quality of the work. That is wickedness of the highest order! This nation is just too spoilt and this madness must stop if we must have a future:
YorubaPrince: Just imagine... That's the mentality of a typical Nigerian. We lack humanity! But, again.. you can't blame him. If he tried to rescue or assist and the regular animals passersby got to know he was the cause of the accident, they could have maimed him.
Nysc needs to call their officials in Ondo camp to order before they destroy their image in Nigeria. A lot of atrocities going on in the Ondo State NYSC orientation camp. The camp officials are just too rude, extorting money from PCM, inconsiderate and making life difficult for corp members in the camp. Corp members are to pay meaningful amount of money ranges from #1000-#3000 at every point of registration( PCM are even paying to receive their kits). Just imagine the accumulated value from over 2000 PCM on camp. The officials kept pregnant women & breast feeding mothers on the queue with other PCM with no regards. One of the pregnant women even lost her pregnancy right there in the camp after keeping her in the camp for 3days stressing the hell out of everyone of them. This camp is so disorganized that PCM have to buy water to use (toilet) in the camp. They kept pregnant and breastfeeding mothers in the camp for days sleeping on the floor. One of the officials even slapped one of the married PCM and threaten to beat others. I am a witness to all these. The officials should apologize to the general public and be called to order and the Camp director/State coordinator should be questioned. Nysc needs to take action before their officials kill PCM in Ondo camp. Its not a crime to serve our fathers land.
Its okay if we abuse the government, its okay when you criticize the people in power; Just don't come near the joint responsibility of the people. Cybercrime is now a norm in Nigeria and Africa and its killing our economy but the people are to blind to see. They will rather blame the government!
STOP IT 419ing, yahooing, money ritual e.t.c! STOP IT! STOP IT Cybercrime is one of the most pressing challenges plaguing economic activity in Africa. With poorly secured telecommunication infrastructure in many African countries, the footprint of cybercrime is exacerbating the numerous socio-economic problems in the region. As Africa's gross domestic product (GDP) reached $3.3 trillion in 2017, the cost of cybercrimes for the same year also amounted to a total of $3.5 billion; Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa recorded the largest losses.
For most African countries, unsecured telecommunication infrastructure has created an enabling environment for cybercrimes to thrive; a situation which partly accounts for the decline in productivity across several sectors. THIS IS A CALL TO STOP IT! TELL THE GOVERNMENT! STOP IT!
WoundedLamb: Just 12 years? I'm sure I missed something. Someone should please educate me. Is it that one could be too old to be educated now? Are there clearly stated conditions for exception? I'd like to know what those are cause there are a hundred and one reasons for which a kid could still be in primary school at that age. And what becomes the fate of the so-called over-aged students? Should we pollute the street to protect the school? I could be wrong but I honestly don't see how this is great idea. I think the government is overwhelmed and ideas aren't forthcoming.
Thanks for your replies though I respectfully disagree with your stance. I read every single letter, guys. I also saw the phrase "with a genuine reason" which you conveniently missed. So you're satisfied with that? To you, that's sufficient to pass a bill? May I ask you what constitutes a "genuine reason"? What reason is not genuine? What are the conditions for exception? What would make you look at a 13 year-old kid and say "no, you can't school again"? Or is it that when the time comes, we'll subjectively decide what reasons are genuine? And what exactly is the implication of the undertaking? When their kids join any secret society 5 years later, you'd arrest them for vouching for them at the age of 13? So those without "genuine reasons" are thrown into the streets just because of the possibility that they might join secret societies in future? In other words, you'd be punishing them for life for the offense they MIGHT commit? Does that sound logical to you? And what happens to the streets? It's okey if the streets are littered with cultists provided the schools are safe?
Let's learn to have an end-to-end view of proposed solutions before implementing them cause the devil is in the details. People don't ask for details and that's why politicians make vague promises and get voted in. It's even sadder when those that ask for details are attacked/shut down.
Orishirishi in this country. We don't even have a direction. Where is the Nation going exactly? Well, What do u expect from a nation without reasonable leaders! Must watch:DEMOCRACY OR POVERTITOCRAZY
