How will the Government pay back the Chinese now?

Putting train and other imported products on the road is not our problem in Nigeria.
In fact the more you buy and put, the more people become agitated.
What we need it to run our own industries to MAKE these things, KEEPING people employed in the process
... EMPLOYED and OFF the streets.
.
As we're just carrying oyibo upandan and importing shine-shine things into the nation, bad boys are just watching and FULLING the road, unemployed and always ready to strike and destroy all your nonsense hard work.

These boys need better job, otherwise they just keep on destroying everything around.

Though I was never a wrestling fan, but I completely stopped watching it , the day I realized it was a skit .
My uncle kept on arguing with me , till I showed him a video of 3H interview where he said something about the acting school .
Anyway I don’t know Hulk Hogan . Just heard about him .
My life has been Football , Basketball and F1. Yes I’m proud to be indomie generation.

You need 1 or 2 powerslams combined with 3 elbow smashes.
After that, you will know all the wrestlers.

alienvirus:
Hulk Hogan, Undertaker, Ultimate warrior. They made my childhood.

They created a lot of excitement.
The excitement attracted people to watch.
To watch, you buy tickets/pay gatefee.
The ticket money is shared to the wrestlers.
Them fight finish, go and shake hands and chop suya together.
Wrestling is a business. And everyone paid for it.

In uni, there was this classmate we used to call Carlton.
We named him Carlton after Carlton Banks from the Fresh Prince of Belair.
He was 100% Doppleganger. Hair, face, height, clothes.

yetunsbay:
Now see lack of knowledge

Which lack of knowledge? All the million girls they have in their country, it's only 2 dozen (24) that education touched to the extent of protesting for it?
It's only 24 that were going to school since all these years? The rest were not serious?

Sweetplum:
Educate a girl & educate a nation.

The whole population of millions of girls, Na only 24 girls came to protest? (2 dozen)..
Hmm. Leave these people to judge their own matter with their own hands.

mazizitonene:
Interesting times indeed....

A time when all the leader are f***Ing up. No country that has good leader without issue again.

Maxymilliano:
I hope the people will rise up someday and say no to the Taliban's

The people and their leadership are usually the same.
That's why Putin remains in Russia, Kim Un remains in North Korea, Biden in US and Nigeria keep having the kind of people we have, running the nation downwards.

HMM. This one, I no fit talk again.
BBC used to be the news standard. I've listened to BBC radio off and on all through childhood.
I took a break in the 2000s.
Now with the demise of SW radio, the rise of cheap data and internet, I don't even want to listen to BBC online again.
Their news now has format.
1, 2, 3, gay. 1,2, 3, lesbian. 1,2,3.gay..

Like joke, like joke. Na the only thing them dey carry for head now.
It was neve like this in the past. They are now full of left wing extremists.

MedicH:
Islam is evil.

What I don't understand is how somebody will just decide to be a Muslim?

Is it not stupidity?

Pray God for wisdom always.
All the people in hell fire, if you ask them, they used their own hand to carry themselves there.
Is that not great stupidity?
No one is there by mistake.

siofra:
We women are really suffering in this life. So because of some group of stupid men, girls in Afghanistan will not go to school again What kind of life is this? Who gave these foolish men power over women? Why do men love power and control so much? Why so insecure?

The women should just slap them. Finish!!
We don't need to involve other countries in all this war.
It's the women's mumu that is causing the problem.

EatforHealth:
Good innovation but I hope it will be adequately maintained

The deplorable state of Lagos roads, coupled with traffic, is more than enough to wreck those cars within 6 months.

UBER and BOLT drivers can testify

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=So2HM-VI35w&t=48s

Since 1880 something, London people quickly realised that, "E be like say this London dey very popular O. Make we do underground train fast-fast to aid with traffic congestion". A good 140+ years ago!
Till today, every body is enjoying that underground train system.
We are still buying MORE cars to add to the road.
and Eko bridge has burnt now.
Where will all these cars pass?

joetem:
some of these peeps are better off in their villages than staying in Lagos

But they won't hear.
They still want to carry that prestige of "I'm based in Lagos"...
Just like Nigerians in Dubai and London Prisons...

UselessBuharist:
Vacate to where na, I guess to other areas to begin crime.

Let's face facts
Vacate OUT of Lagos.
Let's not just be speaking long English here.

BOOKWORMLUX:
Hypocrisy is when you hail Yahoo boys and expect a foreign firm to hire you to work for them
Do you know if the owner of the company you want to work for has been scammed by the Yahoo boys tarnishing the image this country has?
Or even their relatives....
If I be oyibo , the golden advice for my children go be "If you hear NIGERIA, run for your life

So that means no more visa and embassy in Nigeria na. All of them should kukuma pack and run for their lives.
And all of us should just remain here. No more travelling anywhere.
-
Unfortunately, despite the destruction the (bastard) yahoo boys are doing to the nation's reputation,
foreign nations have to still break their head to take terrible risk to still do business with "good & trustworthy" Nigerians, here or overseas.
It's just a bitter pill for them to keep swallowing.

sexyking1:
We never expected them to go without a fight. Soludo did not win election with the help of touts, so eradicating them will not be a problem. Unlike lagos state where major stakeholder are touts and they dictate to govt on how to govern. #ANAMBRANOBELAGOS

The real government of Lagos is the touts.
We are under their control and directives.
Sanwolu and the rest are English speakers.

The camera wasn't sharp before now

lastchild:
i discovered that my tecno spark has lost quality in camera quality. could the fault be from my sight?

The camera image capability never changes. It is the glass covering the lens that gets scratched and starts making blurry images.

Clean the glass with toothpaste
or if you can, change the glass with a new one.

Made619:
really terrible

Leave women that got pregnant out of wedlock
Leave them alone. So far the original man is still alive.
No matter how fine they look, Leave them alone OOOOO!!!!!

We just do Christmas and New Year finish.
One idiot will just start throwing bomb to kill people that were not even looking for his trouble.

Haba.
This is wicked and evil.

Hi Nairaland #data-community

Today I decide to practice what i learnt so far, so i get dirty on excel dashboard, took me 1.5hrs

My journey so far on Dataanalyst/science

Spreadsheet(Excel) >> through with basics and half way through advance(on scenario manager now)

Database(postgresql)>> through with basics also and Intermidiate, started advance(trigers,privileges,turncate etc) today.

Dataviz(Tableau)>>> NOT YET

Programming(Python)>>> Basics only eg Datatype, turples, Bolean, while loop, for loop etc.
PROJECTS
I have two project on excel now
One project on Sql (Covid-data)
more to come

Due to current admission(still in university) I haven’t got time to study full, i only study when am free(holidays) eg Now am taking advantage of ASUU strike �

Gurus what do you think

Github>> codewithkenny SM: @kennytheanalyst

Good book for Excel dashboards

Good library link to download PDF books
http://libgen.rs/search.php?req=excel+dashboards&lg_topic=libgen&open=0&view=simple&res=25&phrase=1&column=def

I think think the Amazon book is there.

falcon01:
Ahh!! Tramadol!! It has extreme side effects. I'm pretty sure it causes epilepsy.

I had (have) terrible back ache.
Doctor prescribe various meds until we reached Tramadol level.
Doctor warned me that it can be addictive.
I took it a bit and felt fine.
But then the news of Tramadol abuse started spreading in the media.
And whilst I still had sense, I kukuma stopped taking the Tramadol, before I become hooked.
So I dey manage my back pain like that.

How Do You Respond To These!!! From A Woman You Intend Marrying?

When she says

Your money is our money
my money is my money.


What is your response?

I don't know O.
This is what I saw about this man and woman money topic on Youtube yesterday

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BDfmJDBNHg

bizzibodi:
No be to go live for there suburb rent cabin or build one,buy bike for fuel economy, acquired some acres & farm marijuana & process hemp oil...there is money in d states Biko.

Let them catch you first na.

hisexcellency34:
sharap. na lie

I studied a bit in UK and worked small.
Like joke, I no just see that money.
As a student, you can only do part time work, ie 4hrs a day - £500 monthly. And E finish.
After graduation, I was doing 8 hrs a day. about £900 monthly. E still finish.
Rent, transport, gas heating (because of terrible cold), food, visa fees, school fees...
You can't just only work.
You must do another runs to get paper. And that one will chop the remaining of your money.
1, 2, 3, 4 years? Na im I kukuma return like that.

You will just be working as a slave.
Earn money, carry all and pay debts
Earn again, pay debts again!!
over and over and over till you are old.

Deborah98:
Wow very beautiful... Na to dey chop fish dey go be dat

Back to no fuel, no light.

my cousin schoolings there has refused to return

He's learning something Na!?

JosephXavier:
This story no straight at all

The story sounds like shit, because the english is all rubbish.
-
2 meanings to the story.
What is Timaya? A man or a woman? He or She?
First story:
Timaya was driving his car, and hit a lady's car.
He refused to come out of his car.
The lady came out of her car, and asked him to come see what he's done (very unlikely for Nigerian ladies)
He instead asked her for her phone number (hopefully to compensate her later in the day)
The lady refused to give him her number.
He then hit the lady and her car the 2nd time and drove off.

Second Story:
Timaya was driving his car.
She hit her with his car (what the Bleep does that even mean).
She came down to ask him to look ...
He didn't come down, but instead asked for (her) number.
She told him (Timaya) that, He would block her. (As per Timaya would block the number of the person he doesn't even have yet).
..
Now, He hit my sister (her) and ran away.
First off,
She hit her with his car.
Now
He hit her with his car?
A woman hit another woman with a man's car
A man hit the same woman with his own car. (the car must be an armoured tank).
What did this woman do that different people are using armoured tank to hit her her left and right?
-
Ok, so the OP now goes to social media to disturb Timaya (a man or a woman?), who blocks them off.
But Timaya asked for a phone number earlier and was ignored.

How exactly does this story concern us now?

Moneyboyz:
There are lots of times I have ideas for something, but unavailability of materials, equipments and finance to bring it to fruition kills the dreams.
To forge parts for most of the things I want is almost impossible.

There's a great lack of smaller cottage industries required to produce basic parts cheaply to be used to constuct anything.
Metal castings require that there already exists a forging press or casting machine somewhere which deals with molten metals.
This machine needs to be running 24/7, making numerous large and small parts because it is very expensive to shut down the machine, allow it cool down the reheat it again to cast another set another time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZ50nZU3oG8
Here's a documentary of such type of things. White people typically went wholly into these types of large scale production as a result of fear for war or defence. Each country competing against the other, not to be left behind and destroyed by their enemies.
Nigeria has not done this type of thing as nobody is fighting us here in Africa, we aren't fighting anybody and our enemies sef are kukuma yeye people with bow and arrow.

bitcoinlord:
I want to ask professionals here, why is engineering so difficult to practice in Nigeria?

Engineering functions by having supporting industries.
A large collection of cottage industries first have to be in existence, producing things as little as nuts and bolts.
All this information from cottage industries need be catalogued (written down data). .
It is this numerous catalogued data from multiple industries that Engineers/Professors/lecturers gather into books.
That way, you read the book, find the information, and also get the address and locations of who produces what.
Sometimes in CAD software, nuts and bolts are complied in to library folders (Well, as of 2000's, many such software would have the data of American companies, Not Nigerian ones). Some of these softwares incorporate professional standards for calculations and sheets Eg. British Standards, ISO, ASME, .... etc (Somehow, Nigerian Standards is never there).
-
In the event that Nigeria has refused to have any cottage industries and recorded and catalogued data, engineering becomes nearly impossible to practice. Your foreign books, and software will be directing you to data that does not exist in Nigeria.
You have to run up and down physically looking for everything you need.
There's no coordination between the books written and the physical environment. And one gets worn out.
This is typically what make Engineering very difficult to practice in Nigeria.
