I am just glad Aloy_emeka  has been exposed for what she truly is. Babapupa, Maree7 and others
see right through her.

She spends her whole life posting anything negative about the South West. However, when an
igbo accomplishes something, she is the first to post it.

I believe everyone can see right through her


Mariory:
I think this all stems from the fact that recently some folks have been posting stories of development success in Lagos. There are a number of very insecure people out there who don't like this.
GBAM! You have said it all !! Kudos to you and shame to the OP !!!!!!

You and this your Benin Republic business. Why don't you go to the National Assembly in Abuja
or the UN in New York rather than posting all these wahala threads on Nairaland ?

This your own is too much

WilyWily:
Look at this Man, Campaign to Shame who. How can you run away from yourself, impossible. This type of Fraud is in Every Yorubaman blood, Even you. So you have no morale justification to Condemn them, You have to condemn yourself first before others.

For Example, i heard that no matter how well a Yorubaman is paid in America and European, because of having this gene of Fraud in them and their obssession to buy every Goods for Half Price, 99.99999999% are involved in Credit Card Fraud.
Why do you hate yoruba people so much ?

this is good news
it simply means we have the manpower necessary to create a world class education system,

all we need do now is to provide the infrastructural amenities needed,
hmmm, it could also mean others are trying to take the little that we have going for ourself. Lets
face it, nigeria itself has the same problem as South Africa, especially in the Northern part.

We need to pay our teachers well so they won't flee at the first lure of money elsewhere.

Career › Re: Cisa by Tonim(f): 8:24pm On Jul 30, 2009
Yes; CISA's are also used in areas besides auditing.

CISA certified professionals are also sought after for computer security positions.

It is not uncommon to see ads seeking people with certifications such as CISSP
and CISA. You can also apply a CISA for Risk Management positions.

With a CISA certification and lots of experience, you have a good chance of
climbing the corporate ladder as a Project Manager or even as a Partner of
a firm (i.e. Top Executive).

Nonsense. Isn't the same Waziri being used for selective justice by Yar'adua undecided

Nasir Arab that forged his records as National Assembly clerk is a free man today
thanks to Waziri and Yar'adua.

Adenike Grange who did not steal a kobo was arrested and arraigned by the
EFCC because top health ministry officials were looting while she was the
health minister.

@tonim
All those guys you listed have the regular doctorate, and not the  higher doctorate the OP was referring to.
Some schools do award the ScD or DSc in place of the traditional PhD, but they are all equivalent for all intent and purposes.
they are not regular doctorates, they are D.sc (doctor of science) recipients. They are the same higher doctorates
the OP was referring to.

How are these D.sc recipients different from the one the OP was referring to huh

It is what you achieve post-doctoral that makes you an icon, not the fact that
you have a doctoral degree.


The nobel prize winners do not get praise based on having a doctoral degree, it is
what they achieved after their doctoral degree that makes them stand out in their
respective fields.

After receiving a doctoral degree, you have to make a great contribution to the body
of knowledge to really stand out. Otherwise, you're just another doctor.

There is a reason why some professors are referred to as Professor Emeritus and
others aren't.

Politics › Re: Tribal Politics Cost Awolowo Nigerian Presidency by Tonim(f): 8:13pm On Mar 10, 2009
Musiwa:
It is the lack of understanding of what politics that why they think awo play politics.

Look the idoma people of benue state did not send David mark to represent Nigeria. I think david mark should get that into his head. the idoma people send david to defend thier interest. And what is the interest of the idoma people at the moment. It is to have a state of thier own. David mark would fail as a senator, if he can not bring that to his people. Knowing well that the former benue state is been cheated on state creation.

You know Bankole would be consider to have fail in politics if by 2011 If the Yorubas are not in the republic of Benin. If Bankole and the other Yorubas reps can not bring the Yorubas into the republic of Benin. You know bankole and others have fail. Nobody in yorubaland send Bankole and the yoruba senator to abuja to represent Nigeria. We send them to represent the Yorubas interest. And At the moment they look like fails. What is leadership? Leadership is if you do the wish of your people. And is Bankole, and the yorubas and reps doing the wish of the Yoruba people. The answer without the fear of man is NO. They have failed to defend Yoruba people. And It is obvious that we need a change.

Politics › Re: Efcc Arrest Former Ondo State Governor, Segun Agagu by Tonim(f): 4:28am On Mar 10, 2009
could it be possibly because the leaders in a particular area are corrupted to the point that they are easier to single out?
The bolded part pretty much sums up the mindset behind your reasoning, can't argue with that.

Have a nice day !
Politics › Re: Efcc Arrest Former Ondo State Governor, Segun Agagu by Tonim(f): 6:40am On Mar 06, 2009
First, you said:

Although I am yet to see this 'selective justice' the EFCC practices



then, later on you are saying this:

could it be possibly because the leaders in a particular area are corrupted to the point that they are easier to single out?
If you do not see any 'selective justice' by the EFCC as you stated, then how does the issue of "the leaders in a particular area being easier to single out" arise huh

Both of these quotes were statements made by you.

Perhaps you can help explain why you are speaking from both sides of your mouth

could it be possibly because the leaders in a particular area are corrupted to the point that they are easier to single out?
Hmmm, I guess if the "leaders in a particular area" weren't so corrupt, it'll be difficult to single them out. So, the reason "leaders of other
areas" are not as easy to single out is because they are less corrupt.

I guess the "leaders of other areas" are not only less corrupt, but the few that are corrupt (the very few) are so smart that they are able
to do so without the radar of EFCC catching up with them.

So, not only are the "leaders in a particular area" more corrupt, but they must be less intelligent than the leaders of other areas. The
very very few that are corrupt in the "other areas" are so advanced in their corrupt practices that the EFCC just cannot match their
level of sophistication.

Now that I think about it, you make a whole lot of sense.

Again, what you wrote that I have in bold pretty much sums up the mindset behind your reasoning.
My initial assumption about you has been proven, thanks to you.
Politics › Re: Efcc Arrest Former Ondo State Governor, Segun Agagu by Tonim(f): 6:59pm On Mar 05, 2009
could it be possibly because the leaders in a particular area aree corrupted to the point that they are easier to single out? Do we actually have to do statistics to justify prosecution? Perhaps this could be another area where federal character comes into play. Hence EFCC is only allowed to arrest one person from each group even if for whatever reason there might happen to be more obvious corrupt practices in say a particular region. So is this the point? See what I mean by your points aren't necessarilly supportive with the ideals you proclaim? So would a push to have convictions display more "federal character" satisfy? Though I find such a premise quite ludacris these are genuine questions. We could actually go further with this but it is obvious you took some offence at my last post so please don't feel the need to reply, just ignore my postings and have a nice day : )
The bolded part confirms my earlier claim about you. Now that I understand your mindset, it makes sense how you choose not to reason
with me and just keep writing endlessly.

Have a nice day !

LOOOL. How amusing, so what exactly do you know about me? Do you know for a fact that my "brethren" are not being "singled out" or do you even know what part of the country I am from?
All right then, what part of the country are you from ? Please i am all ears.

I stand by my words that, it is hard for you to see that yorubas are being singled out because it is not your tribe.

Yep, "brethren" that sacrifice the development of a whole state due to their selfish ambitions and interest, what amazing "brethren" worth protecrting. Even considering that people would tow this line is pretty frsutrating

especially when you see a lot of whining about corruption and the state of things on nairaland. No offence to anyone and permit me to hold my views but it is quite irritating, tomorrow same people will come and shout that there is corruption and underdevelopment in their state and "discuss the issues", lol. Do you think ,doing "brother brother" with crooks will serve as a detterrent? For crying out loud what message is actually being sent out? You think these same "brethren" had your best interest at heart when they were pillaging the funds of their states and raping your resources to have more money to buy that extra private jet while the ordinary citizens could not even afford ehalth care? I mean. . . . ? How amusing, pardon me @Tonim but really no need to reply unless you want to have the last word cos I think I will pass on raising my blood pressure this morning. : )

Gosh what a country, the corrupt are protected by nthe citizens under some sort of "brotherly code" they did not consider when they were stealing hope and dev.elopment from their people whle the people won't mind shouting down performers and all the while same people are shouting "underdevelopment". Gosh what a country LOOL.
Again and for the umpteenth time, the EFCC can go after all yoruba corrupt people, all I am saying is that, they should go after others too !!!!!
Don't just single out the yorubas.

It seems you just like writing for the sake of writing. Who is protecting the corrupt ? Where in my post have I implied that ?

Next time, please read my posts carefully before responding. I think I write pretty clearly, but whatever difficulty you are having
understanding my posts, do not hesitate to point them out.

I went to school in Nigeria when our educational system was top notch. A diploma from UI, UNN, OAU, UNILAG etc was well
received around the world. I don't know if it is our school system that has failed you because I think my posts were pretty
clear that I don't have a problem with corrupt yorubas being prosecuted, I only feel they should go after others and not
just single out the yorubas
. I think that was pretty straight forward.

How you arrive at me protecting the corrupt eludes me. Anyway, I can go over how to read and comprehend sentences
with you if this is what you need help with.
