MaziOmenuko:
This is an ignorant comment. If such a fella is running a consulting firm and government contracts his firm for services, he is not required to do nysc. But if he is taking up a political appointment as maybe, minister for science and tech, ogbeni he must serve!

Go and make some research about other countries who have same conditions. Some countries you must have tk serve in the military (Korea republic is 2yrs military service). That is why Son Hing of Tottenham is trying his best to win a sports medal for his country as that is the only way he will be exempted from a 2yrs military Service. And their own be say, even if you are not resident in the country, you must come home and serve or forfeit being a Korea citizen.
thank you very much for educating him

Seaport in onitsha would steer billions of naira business away from Tincan and Apapa and "some people" dont like that because they have Lagos state government in their pocket.
apapa is in the FG pocket

The FG pockets the money from Lagos ports, and will also pocket the money from the ports in the east if /when they become operational

the problem is that NPA is not ready for serious work

they are just there for embezzlement

Why would they spend money to fix other ports when they can keep stealing the money they are meant to use to fix it.
huh?

2018 has been a roller coaster year for me.. Got a job around Feb immediately after service.. Obviously oblivious of how office politics is played, I got booted out some four months later.

Only to discover that the girl I had built my dreams with was only leveraging on me and cheating all d time. Attended a record 15 interviews after being relived no show... Gosh!

I lost interest in life itself.. I lost interest in developing relationships, Backstabbing friends, selfish FAM, mom remarrying just a year after dads death, losing that family love I once enjoyed as a last born, mehn I slipped into depression...

I long lost interest in My dear Arsenal football club, getting to watch again after Emery appointment. Lost interest in sex, lol my libido used to be up above d clouds, lost interest in my web development tutorials..

I had fixed q date to commit suicide sef, just hung on and finally opened up to my elder bro. Who admonished me not to give up!



D only thing safeguarding my sanity is working out.. Venting the frustrations on those iron bars.. I lost fat and built up muscles.

Well still haven't gotten a Job, the interviews keep coming had one on Friday, and another comes up on Wednesday, not giving up yet.. I might have Lost a great deal of my vibe, but I am getting back to my real self

Still got bouts of depression now and then, but I know it will be over soon.. Amen
You will get a better job than the one you were booted out from

Take that from me cool

With determination and God's favour, you will prevail at the chagrin of your detractors


P.S. As long as you wrre not at fault sha for the booting out

Engineers and scientist choose to be dormant largely but business related and art related grad are mostly stuck skills that are less marketable as entrepreneurs.
did you say stuck skills? huhhuh cheesy grin

my guy forget that thing.

All fields are useful in their own way

just that the Nigerian economy is not well shaped.

And yes, if you say engineers and scientists choose to be dormant, then it also means that the lawyer's and accountants and other fields also chose to be dormant undecided

Where are the research lab in Nigeria to use the scientists

Even the engineers what are most of them doing,?

I go to Nigeria from time to time and I see all manners of fuckery in the corporate space and all.

And ANY ONE can be an entrepreneur

All it takes to be one is to solve problems / attend to the needs of potential customers

it has nothing to do with your field of study

lawyers, engineers etc have opened and run successful businesses in Nigeria

Has the boy said he is giving them child support? Someone doing that won't be talking childishly like he is doing.

He would have come out to say something like "What about the money I send every month" or " How do you spend the little I send"

This guy is irresponsible! Period
you can't say sha....

Binta is equally irresponsible undecided

How will you get into this kind of situation with a guy like this when you know it could go either way

As much as wiz was irresponsible I don't pity her much because once bitten is supposed to b twice shy for her

but her having multiple baby daddies make me not pity her at all.

she should better sit up and raise her kids, or go into a legal battle to claim the support payments

instead of further disgracing herself

Wizkid just lost a fan. He’s obviously just another entitled conscienceless misogynistic hypocritical african male.

You didn’t think they were hoes when you slept with them did you?
You’re the one who is obviously sleeping around but you don’t consider yourself irresponsible innit?

It’s not your fault but the misogynistic culture you’re raised in. One would think he would be more enlightened now.

Unfortunately your kids will grow up to see you calling their mothers prostitutes while you’re ignoring to take care of them and concurrently sleeping with different women at the same time.

Disgusting
he is referring to binta

yes indeed she is a hoe

she has been acting like a hoe from day one


That's the damn truth

but women will always be sentimental

WIZKID should take care of his child

He was just silly to get involved with a toxic element which is on him and has to pay for

I have nothing personal against them but there are too many of them in the system, and in a dormant economy like ours they end up being stuck in the system as unemployed hands. There most be adequate wealth in a system for accountants to be needed to keep books but we are largely a consuming nation.
There are not too many of them

The economy is just dormant That's all.

in a country that populated, it's normal to have many people in diverse fields eg engineers, lawyers economists doctors etc

do you know how many doctors and accountants there are in India? shocked

the problem is as you have said the economy is not dynamic enough to absorb them.
you know how many engineerrs ), chemists, microbiologists And even geologist are useless And redundant in Nigeria?

the economy is still under developed and basic in a way
And the job of the chartered accountants goes way beyond keeping the books, so note that too

Most lawyers and accountants don't have nothing to offer and that's the truth. Even the chartered accountants that earn really well are mostly overrated.

The problem I have with most uneducated folks making millions or billions is that most are just traders or middlemen and don't create wealth in the real sense of it.

Take the milk industry in Nigeria for example. The Asians Europeans and Americans do most of the real milk production and I call this wealth creation because they interact with the gift of nature like soil, rain and light plants directly to feed their cows. Now these people employ so many hands.
Nigerians and Africans on the other hand produce next to no milk and are merely packaging imported milks as middlemen.
The end result is that the milk 1000 men will produce abroad will takes 100 men to package and redistribute in Nigeria / Africa.
Most people don't realize the value you can add to an establishment in wealth creation cycle influences your take home hugely.
it's like you have a case against accountants and lawyers

they do their bit, just like every other profession

theoldpretender:
The truth of the matter is simple

That is N65 that could have gone elsewhere...like transport, health, education, etc.

But the government keeps on spending N65 because the alternative....complete deregulation....is horrifying politically

But from an economic point of view....removing subsidy could enable us save more forex, and free up more money for public spending projects.

I think it is high time we faced the truth...and removed subsidy. Yes...fuel price will shoot up to N300 per liter...BUT....foreign investment would flow in, more investment will flow into our oil sector...and eventually prices will come down.

GEJ and Okonjo Iweala had the right idea in 2012....the problem was Nigerians of all shapes and sizes...GEJ fans inclusive...prefer cheap oil. Well, cheap oil is costing us money that is better spent elsewhere...and money that to begin with...is not enough (and I haven;t even talked about corruption).

Oil subsidy must go. It should have gone since 1986...since 1993 since 2006 and since 2012. It has to go now.

Because the cost of processing your crude oil is rising everyday and it's not in your favor because you don't have good exchange rates , and while this administration is trying it's best to keep you on the road , all you can do is hate the man who is making all sacrifices to ensure that you use fuel by all means

If i mention Jonathan now , you will complain, he's the only one who sold petrol for 150$/barrel and never thought of repairing or building refineries, he preferred to settle the likes of Tompolo, Dokubo and Yahoo CAN pastor if they threaten him a little bit

That's why we are suffering now


If Dangote completes his refinery right now , i bet he will charge us less to refine our crude oil , but in the process make more money to build more refineries


Dangote refinery costs 10B usd , That's half the amount the cancer patient (Denziani ) took to UK and why Lamido lost his Job

$10B = 3,625,000,000,000 That's ~ 4Trillion but Mama Piss has 1B in her fidelity bank account frozen by EFCC

all these things we are suffering is cause and effect , take it or leave it , i have said my own

God bless u. People don't think in terms of what they have to offer their employers in Nigeria. There are engineers who earn as high as 6m USD per month on contract of few years.
They can earn that because they carry the knowledge required to create a dangerous amount of wealth. Employers outside Nigeria are generous with salary as long as you can justify it in value.
Most people here are law or accounting graduates who probably passed through one overcrowded uni and think their degree will do the magic of a N350k job for them.
