EducationRe: 81-Year-Old Father Of Vice-Chancellor Graduates From His Son's University by trent101(m): 12:51am On May 30
papiSNEH:
Not saying archiving one's goal isn't good but sometimes when e don pass e, e simply don pass. shay na for 81 years him wan carry cert go find work undecided .... if you check you must find see a younger relative of his that needed this education more but Baba said no i must see the four corner.

modified:---

for those quoting me abeg apply common sense...for example my dream car is Ferrari or Lamborghini.. and i wasn't able to get it and drive it in my 30s,40,or even manageably 50, then in my 70s or 80s after retirement and pension I'm able to save and buy it abeg which waist i wan use dey bend enter drive Ferrari? money way i go stand next generation.. No be say the baba don dey go school since him 20s,30s,40s,or 50s way go make you think his aiming higher and acquiring more knowledge.. na for late 60s baba start, abi him no pay school fees ni? person way sleep go wan wound for class and some one get mind dey tell me say the VC go provide job for the relative... instead of to push younger ones to grow and impact others..
It's very obvious you didn't read and understand fully what the post is all about.
Someone who graduated in the 70's, you're still assuming he's trying hard to see the four corners of an institution for the first time.

He went for and MBA degree, which of course you know nothing about, reason why you think he wants to look for a Job with it.

People who go for MBA are mostly CEO and Entrepreneurs.

At 81, with sons that are professors and VC of a University, common sense alone suppose tell you that the man is already a successful Man. It was clearly stated there that he felt his children are surpassing him academically , hence he's trying to catch up.

Try to understand a post before commenting... I wonder how you even know the relatives that needs the education more.
Seems your have some spiritual abilities to see the unseen. Lol

untoldtruth:
Guy WTF, why in the name of kindness and humanity will you just see someone else's cat, kill it and then use the last braincell swimming in your skull to even brag about it online.
There's God o, you'll pay for every life you take that you didn't create o, in more ways than you know 🚶🚶🚶
Because it's a cat , he'll pay for the life he took, what about the thousand of chicken, goats , cows and dogs killed daily. Who's gonna pay for those life's?

We just dey carry unnecessary things for head.

EducationRe: Help . Uniben Has Refused To Clear Me Since I Graduated In 2019. by trent101(m): 11:24pm On Jul 22, 2025
Honestly am surprised that after 5yrs of time wasting you still dey pet those animals in your department. You mentioned coming from far east... I no sure say you be igbo Man.
After five years Nna I go don act film for that department. Them go feel my presence, them go know say person come.
On a serious note, plane yourself very well, my clearance way back 2015 at Uniport was very stress free. But I planned to stay for a Month as I came all the way from Lagos. I didn't do my clearance when I finished just like you.

You cant expect to go and finish up within a week. My gee. Plan well.
Wishing u success in your endeavors.

PropertiesRe: Advice: 100% Rent Increment by trent101(op): 9:28pm On Nov 30, 2022
ThaRealist:
I was surprised to see a mini flat at 200k rent in Egbeda, that I had to re-check, that's such a steal-price!

Well, it's sad they have increased over 100% but it is actually still a fair price compared to what is obtainable at the moment.

So my advice is, to negotiate with the lawyer to help you cut it to 320- 350k as that is what you can comfortably pay and plead with him to consider that your business is still in the early stage. Because you would not get something as cheap as the price he is quoting with the infrastructure you mentioned and area .

Even with your money for hand, getting a decent house is stressful, with these crook agents trying to extort claims of the inspection fees, Agreement and commision , almost half the rent.
Thanks so much sir... I have talked with the lawyer and we settled for N300,000
PropertiesAdvice: 100% Rent Increment by trent101(op): 10:50pm On Nov 27, 2022
Hello me fellow Nairalander... Am a young Bachelor in my early thirties, 32 to be precise.
A graduate from Uniport, served 2019.
Currently I have my own establishment JD Logistics right in Lagos.
Still small but I will say we are trying. I had a rider as of last yr, had to stop him sometime this yr when he started misbehaving and not remitting cash collected, so right now am currently managing the business all by myself, Hoping to get another rider next yr.
So back to the main topic at hand... I live in a Mini flat (thats what we call a room and parlor self-contain in Lagos) at Egbeda in Lagos, I have been a tenant her since 2016. The rooms are spacious. Nice area as all the roads are tared, power supply is very steady, haven't had reason to on my gen for over 3months plus now, there's water , there's a super market and the grand floor, it's a 2 storey building and am on the second floor. And security is tight, u can sleep with your doors open.
So about a year ago the property was handed over to lawyers to manage it.
Just last week I was handed a letter of increment...
The rent is being increased from N200,000 to N400,000 thousand naira and am to commence payment on my next rent starting from 1st September 2023.
I haven't been able to take this new development likely as I feel very uncomfortable right now...
I have called the lawyers to ask why 100% increment with the difficult situation We all are facing presently in this country, He just said thats the instructions given to them.
So my fellow Nairalanders, I haven't really been in a situation like this hence why I have to come and seek for advice from you all.
How do I go about this?
I make over 100k+ monthly outside expenses, feeding, family wahala and repairs. So to an extent I can still pay the new rent. But
If after all negotiations and they insist on N400k , is it wise for someone my age, still single to pay a rent of N400k.?
All advice and criticism are welcome... Thanks

EducationConfused. 28 And No First School Leaving Cert. by trent101(op): 5:26pm On Apr 03, 2020
Hello guys. So I really need some one experienced to advice me on what to do. I didn't make my first school leaving exam-that's my primary six exam- when I wrote it as a kid. My dad( I still dey vex for am till tomorrow) just took me to a private school and that's how I started my senior school. I have finished my BSc from Uniport where I did Mathematics and statistics and am currently serving at State government establishment. I just realized now that even if this people decide to retain me after my service I won't have my primary six result to present as it's very necessary when it come to working for government establishments. Also outside this I still want to apply for Direct Short Service into Nigeria Navy and first leaving school certificate is still one of their major requirements. I want to no how possible it will be for me to get my primary 6 result, is it still possible at my age now... Am 28. It's giving me sleepless nights. Tanks for your reply.

NYSCRe: Prospective NYSC 2019 Batch B Corps Members Thread by trent101(m): 1:22pm On May 26, 2019
Pls guys I would like to get some infos as regards this registration that would commence on the 1st. In choosing the states one which to serve, can I choose states from the same zones. For instance, Lagos State and Ogun state are in the same zones and Rivers State and Delta State are in the same zones. So can I choose Lagos, Ogun , Delta , and Rivers all together. Because I school at Uniport, so I feel if I choose Rivers I won't be posted there and am from Delta, so I might not also get Delta. Am ok with either Ogun State and Lagos. Help guys.
