Symphony007: The thing that jumped out of me in this article was "CRUDE OIL THEFT"....this thing will soon snuff out the life of the nigerian oil industry. It is going on in both a commercial and subsistent scale: right now bunkering and local refineries in the niger delta creeks are so much that youths from the north are being brought in to work in the local refineries, oil bunkering in the niger delta is now becoming like the mexican drug cartel. There are some bosses are the top who own the refineries with workers stealing the oil..some are now even assasinating rivals.

Recently shell and some other oil companies shut down their entire oil pipelines because theft is now so much, they cannot follow up the trend and when this oil get out of control and spill, they will still be taken to court and pay damges, after all this how much is their corporate profit? And this is dangerous at a time when many countries around the world are finding oil. The oil companies present here can just pack up and leave leaving nigeria's undiversified economy imploading!! I belive progress is being made in other sectors of our economy but oil is still our main stay and we must not joke with it..never!!

Very, very well said. In the long run, the effect of crude oil theft on our economy may be just as bad, if not worse than Boko Haram.

Really nice.

Really inspiring. This goes to
show that we cannot keep using
the lack of cutting edge
equipment in our labs as an
excuse not to conduct ground
breaking research. Please
tribalists, keep of this topic. They are Nigerians after all.

GO KENYA!

And what if the kenyans can't? Will you ban yourself?

It is said that failure to plan, is a plan to fail. My friends, have you planned your day, week, month and semester? Do you know what you wanna achieve this semester and exactly how you're gonna achieve it? Or are you just moving with the tide? Doing registration, rushing 4 lectures and going to the reading room to sleep, eat or stare at ur books because everyone else is doing so? We are undergraduates now. Step out of the crowd and define your own path. Why have u come to OAU? Start fulfilling that purpose. Remember, not all those who will matriculate will graduate. Many intelligent students do not graduate with their sets or graduate at all because of the wrong choices they make or the choices they procrastinate/shy away from making. #justhadtosayit#

Why laugh? She expressed a genuine desire shared by most of us.
