Hi all,

I have a new battery grip for a Canon 5D Mark III for sale

It goes for just N70,000 (Slightly negotiable)

Hi everyone,


I was posted to Kano too, leaving Lagos today Wednesday sha..

Kindly add me to the group.

Dyt:
When I had the means to buy I got for my mum Her name on the particulars and everything I use it anytime I want More like its mine

That's a viable option too...thanks

thorpido:
Then buy the car and keep it.Just make it available for her to use when there's a need for it.

Thanks Bro, I thought the same thing too

But needed a second opinion...

thorpido:
You could gift your mum the car since you are single and is not ready to settle yet.However,can your mum afford to maintain the car?

Hmn....She can't fully maintain it...

DickDastardly:
Start from your grand mom

Mufu!!!!

MMotimo:
The person that needs it more The person that can afford the maintenance of the vehicle

I think this is a better angle of looking at it.... Thanks

afanide:
You didnt tell us if you are married yet or single. That way we can provide perfect answer as being married has a lot of factors to be considered here....


If you are still single and not planning marriage any sooner, why not?

This is the perfect time to gift ur mum a car.

I aint married yet...Still some 3 or 4 years time...

I sincerely appreciate the efforts of my Mum(Single Parent) towards my upbringing...


But an issue has always plagued me.
When one starts earning well enough to afford a car..Who would it be right to buy a car for first..
Myself or my Mum??


I need our contributions please....

Ozzaa:
On third withdrawal they said. I used access bank ATM today and on my first withdrawal I was debited #65 just like that.

That's where the investigation comes in..

It's easy for everyone to scream that the N65 charge be removed..Does anyone know the over head cost of running ATM's??...

If the money isn't removed after three withdrawals as instructed by CBN, I believe this is where the case is...

Nzeokafor:
Thanks

Thank you so much..God bless....
Just seeing this by the way

kingso2255:

The rate at which military personnel beat up civilians these days is becoming unacceptable.

[quote author=fratermathy post=39874582]This is getting too old and stale.

While I do not support totally embarrassing HND graduates and denying them of promotions, appointments and a chance to make a successful career, it should be noted that HND and B.Sc/B.A/B.Agric/B.Tech/LL.B/B.Fisheries/MBBS/DVM are different and the dichotomy must be emphasised.
HND is a technical diploma. It is technically not even a Degree but a National Diploma. B.Sc and its other appellations are the recognised standard for academic, theoretical and career based jobs and appointments. That is not to say HND cannot be used. It is just that HND is better off for handy middle-levelled and technical jobs/careers. The whole essence of HND is to make sure that there are middle-levelled skilled people in the society that can be called upon and relied on for their technical expertise. University graduates are seen as having done a theoretical study with much intellectual rigour and are, thus, deemed to have a high intellectual acuity for certain professions and careers. This must be known and not relegated. No matter how much sentiments come in and no matter how much we try to equate these certifications, the sacrosanct fact is that they are not the same. As long as one is a "Diploma" and another is a "Degree", they can NEVER be treated equal and same.

On the issue of Shell equating HND with Third Class, I have iterated in the previous paragraph that HND is not seen as an intellectually inclined degree but rather as a technically inclined diploma. Having a Distinction in HND only proves that you have an excellent technical expertise, perhaps even beyond that of University Degree holders. However, this does not translate into the fact that you are intellectually buoyant enough to stand a University First Class product. It doesn't add up. For one, our Nigerian Polytechnics operate a 4 points GPA system as opposed to the 5 Points used in our Nigerian varsities. Secondly, the units of courses taken in HND programmes are far lower, both individually and cumulatively, when compared with a University. Thirdly, the course contents in Polytechnics are peripheral and elementary as opposed to that of a University! Fourthly, the calibre of academic staff and their standing is much lower than that of a University. For one, a Polytechnic cannot have a Professorial Cadre! Polytechnics usually have substandard facilities and make-shift labs and instruments. All these come together to haunt the graduates of Nigerian Polytechnics!

The solution to all these bifurcations is easy. Polytechnics should be made to award a B.Tech rather than an "Ordinary" or "Higher" diploma. Polytechnic facilities should be overhauled and made to standards. The Professorial Cadre, alongside its competitive and cumbersome "floating" process, should be introduced to the Polytechnics. Polytechnics should employ the 5 or more Points GPA system and courses should be well developed, standard and carry higher units! In fact, the term "Polytechnic" should be hijacked from parlance and replaced with University of Technology or any other soothing appellation. We should always strive to follow the UK pattern in our technological pedagogical system.

Finally, on the issue of ostracization and stigmatization, I believe it is only Nigerian Legislative Bodies that can end this once and for all. As long as they are comfortable with it, nothing will change! Let's just stop flogging this issue and look forward to better things! This issue has been discussed, ignited and quenched severally since Nigerian employers' decisions to employ preferential treatments! It is time we either take drastic measures or simply let it go as we have always done.

#MyTake
Mr. Baminasri, I am sorry about your plight! Your best is yet to come. I'd advise you to get a PGD and possibly a Masters though.

Mogidi:
I wanted to ask whose side is Buhari on, but I guess most of us already know. Boko haram would gain more from this than anybody.
Very soon Buhari is going to make it illegal to shoot Boko haram members in case it violates their human rights?

Buhari's election victory was god sent to boko haram movement.
