What sup?

I'm fine and you?

People put too much emphasis and almost all their faith in a degree.

University degree is just like a foundation to greater heights, nothing else.
If u don't want to push wheelbarrow, become a gas attendant or a conductor for a start then get a degree.

Wise people use their degree to secure a Job, save substantial amount then start a business and when the business is big enough to feed them and their family, they resign from their Job.
The money u get from a Job can't make u live, it can only help u survive.
Salary as a whole is like a bribe u take so u can forget ur dreams.

My advice to u is this, get ur certificate, use it to start a life but don't depend on it.

Don't depend only on ur cert in d next 10yrs, have more streams of income

Well, your salary can make you live comfortably even after retirement. The questions you should ask yourself are: 1. Do you earn enough from your present job or do you need another job? 2. What do you do with your pay? Even as a businessman, you're going to struggle to survive if you don't manage your resources well

This can only come from a school drop out, someone who graduated with pass, someone who studied courses like iceblock Engineering or Nylon technology and someone who wasted his/her time in school without learning anything from his/her field of study.

Certificate get level incase you don't know.

Anyone who graduated with a good and presentable result with lots of knowledge and skills relating his/her course of study will never make this statement, because there's are certificates that will feed a whole kindred for 30+ years.

Nice one. I doubt if he is a graduate.

Lostz leave me alone, biko.
I can't even corrupt an ant.

You can't corrupt an ant?

missimelda01:
True to an extent.

It still bothers me how a mother can reject a lady her son has spent time knowing, does it mean that she doesn't trust his judgement or something. Obi is gonna be a man someday and would need a mind of his own, women should know where to draw the line.

When it's time for your son to get married, then you can revisit this comment

Eulalia:
Come on now! Stop being sarcastic. . I know your type and would like to be acquainted with such brains.
Please don't run away from a learner. Biko.

Nice to meet you.

I'm serious, no sarcasm intended as I didn't study English in the university. However, I like people with sound minds both morally and academically. So please don't go about picking faults In my comments. �

Eulalia:
Awwn... Such a handsome young man. What was he trying to suck? anh!

All these liposuction and what have you, been killing people for ages yet more people are still going for it.
The hospital too is not proactive. Like how can they run a surgery of that magnitude on "NEPA" power? Knowing full well how epileptic our power supply system is. Chai!

This so pathetic. And to think he wasn't ill.

People should learn to appreciate the way they are. Worst still, hit the gym or go on a strict diet program and you're good to go.
Don't ever let anyone bodyshame you to your death.

RIP handsome man

We live in a terrible world where body shaming seems normal. We just have to love ourselves the way we are and learn to ignore what people say about us. As we speak, there are people much heavier and thicker than him that are enjoying their lives

Eulalia:
Sure. Verb clearly agrees with the subject of a sentence but like I said, there are a few exceptions where it may not always agree with the subject due to the presence of other nouns/pronouns,(nouns and pronouns are usually the subject of a sentence) which could make it a bit confusing to the writer. Not like I'm the one confused here, cos normally I would go for " you".
Im not also trying to be argumentative here. Just stating what I studied.

I would appreciate it more if we could thrash out a few things in the supra segmental aspect of the English language; as that is my major.

On the side: please, I'm not an English expert o. So don't start coming at me now from every angle. .

English nor be my papa language.

Thank you.

You are right, you sabi English pass me ooh. Have good day

I can see you are forming Don claiming to be a master of the game. If you are such, why did you get played in the first place? If you choose to carry out your mission and ignore the voice of reason, be rest assured that greater disappointment lies ahead for you.

This is where the government has to come in and assist small scale enterprises with at least one month salary. But hey, this is Nigeria it's not gonna happen

[quote author=Eulalia post=88435962]Yeah I know "you" should take a plural verb but there are a few exceptions when faced with more than one pronoun or noun in a sentence. So, here my verb agrees with the first pronoun "it" hence the use of a singular verb.

At some point when it gets confusing, I use what sounds right.

Check/google that statement and see it being used severally there.
No man is an island though.

As for not liking the way I corrected the guy, its was his fault. He called me out first that I should go back to school. That was why I did that.

Thanks anyways. In that sentence, the "you" is the subject and not "it". Whenever "it is" is used to start a sentence, it's usually followed by a noun or pronoun which becomes the subject of the sentence. A verb only agrees with the subject and not any noun or pronoun in a sentence. Whenever you are confused, just look at the subject of the sentence whether it is plural or singular and match it with the appropriate verb. I have been following your comments on this thread and deserve my commendation. Keep it up

Eulalia:
I think it's YOU who needs to go back to school and I mean... back to the basic stage.

At least I can help you with your grammar since I couldn't help with changing your warped mindset.

Have a lovely day ahead, Sir.

Correction continues...it's You who need and NOT "needs" you wrote above. Madam, I agree 100% with your opinion, but making mockery of his English is what I don't like.

Chai you Don choppam finish na

This is perhaps the biggest fraud ever committed by Nigerian public officials. How and when did they compile the list? Where are the people they claim to have paid? Too many posers begging for answers

Isn't it too early for him to start associating with people? That virus can redevelop in some patients earlier cured of it.

Opexzy:
I have been flowing with your opinions and i am quite fascinated. But i must point out something which I will put forward to you a a question.



What brings about those feelings? There is definitely something that will attract you to someone and i am sure you know it. Sometimes it might be composite qualities.

We are all humans we have preference (both men and women).

Quite apt. Something must attract you to a person, otherwise you close your eyes and choose your partner at random

Love market, phew.

The market is selling fast courtesy of lock down

sodiqapril:
By the time sanwoolu is done with lagosians ....na ifo DM go run go..is Buhari not supposed to go to Lagos or human lives don't matter in this country again..oh I forgot no Cows were killed ..that point and kill junkie even created a gofundme account so they can cash out on people's miseries and sadness...that dead rat griller has been silent for a while.if he's on a ban, please don't unban the RoosterDrinker

You took the words out of my mouth. A failed country with a perpetually absent president

famology:
If anyone ever thought it's gonna be easy to dislodge osho like that, the person must be a toddler in politics. He's got very strong backers within the apc in high places across the country. That's why I laughed when some neophytes were rejoicing in some quarters yesterday. It was a childish and premature celebration.

You are the neophyte here for rejoicing that the judgment has been set aside.The judgment suspending him can only be vacated by a higher court. If he forces himself in, any action he takes as APC chairman will be considered null and void

Honestly in my life time, I have not seen a more absurd judgement than this. How did the supreme court get itself into this mess? Reversing itself has grave consequences, hence its refusal to do it.

What a pity! Still studying files after how many months? SMH

ojikeebere12:
Wondering..... Any connection with her ruling in Bayelsa case?

Don't get it twisted, she alone couldn't have delivered that judgment. If the other panel members disagree with her, hers will just be a minority judgment as we have seen in many cases

adelaja70:
Did PDP candidate meet the requirements? Make una go read the judgement wella o.

Which requirements? The votes cast for APC are deemed to be non-existent, therefore, that makes the PDP candidate the winner

foleskay:
Did u just say buhari is older than Ffk's father?? Buhari was still a millitary cadet when fani Kayode( Ffk's father) and awolowo etal we're running affairs of western Nigeria. Stop being gullible

You dey mind the idiot? What does he know apart from spewing trash as usual?

APCNig:
Not everyone wakes his parents with kicks. Islam preaches respect for elders. Now compare the way Buhari addresses Obasanjo with all the rubbish Obasanjo has been saying about Buhari to the way Fayose, FFK, Cownu Nnamdi and Reno Omo-Kirikiri addresses Buhari who is older than their useless parents.

Sharap, which Islam?

solmus:




For trump who couldnt win popular vote against Hilary Clinton even with all her scandals and had to depend on electoral collage, now that Pelosi had succeeded in painting him black and opening his yansh to the world, i wonder how he would rig himself in against sanders or bidden, with Democrats winning more states at the midterm election to clinch majority in the House

not to forget he has issues with the chinese comuinity , the Arabs , the Africans especially Nigerians, the muslims , the blacks, the feminist, people on welfare system that he wants to cut

.

Please concentrate on local issues, you know nothing about US politics. The electoral college and not popular votes, has been the determinant of who wins the election.

themonk:
Test of sexual compatibility.

Very big d**k
Very small dick
Very wide Vijay
Very small vjay

All these can cause cheating and divorce. Better make sure your partner has your size.

How can you test this if premarital sex is not allowed?

They all mean the same thing. Just a division housing related disciplines

What a tragedy! Oh Kobe rest in peace

PaulErungworo:
FG has released a circular mandating the Director of Cash Management to stop salaries of tertiary institutions workers not enrolled in IPPIS platform. See circular below

Alot of ignorant folks commenting rubbish. ASUU as a union is not opposed to joining IPPIS. However, there are peculiarities of ASUU that IPPIS cannot address as it's. Therefore, if ASUU must join IPPIS then It must be allowed to manage its own template. On this we stand

newdawn2017:
U re cursed U pig!

Who is this under-fed dog? Did I mention you? Why would you just jump on my comment to spew trash? GTFOH idiot

You qouted me first cos you lack what to do on a Saturday morning.... lightning will strike you if you ever qoute me in an animalistic manner

I quoted you to correct the foolishness in you. You have no such power boy
