I doubt if you have the capacity to reason well. Do you reall know where North central is?
You mean Obi will win in Kwara, Kogi, Niger and Nasarawa States?
Mark my words, Obi will only be able to do 25% in Plateau and Benue States among all the six states in the NC on saturday.

Obi has won plateau and nasarawa so far.

The only problem is that I went to vote in Wakili kudu 3 here in Katsina. In my polling unit, Labor party logo is not on the presidential ballot paper.

When I asked around, everyone around told me that Labor party is not on the ballot.

I then went to another pooling unit and met LP party agent. I told them my experience.

They went to check in their pooling unit and the Labour party logo is there. It seems they are using 2 different sets of ballot papers for the presidential election.

I heard there are about 27 pooling units in Wakili kudu 3.

I am able to observe that nearly all the core Hausa Muslims are behind Atiku,

while almost all the Yorubas are behind Tinubu.

All the igbos, South South and Middle belts (particularly if those people in the Middle belts are Christians) are behind Peter Obi. There are Hausa Christians behind Obi also.

Of course there are exceptions. For example, a Hausa Muslim posted in a WhatsApp platform in Katsina that Peter Obi is the best candidate for the presidency.


He was attacked and asked not to discuss politics in their WhatsApp platform.


Also in the states where the party is APC or PDP, there are people in leadership who may do anything to make Tinubu or Atiku to win.

But if it is given to the masses to decide, then


Tinubu will win in all South West states and few northern states,


Atiku will win in the core northern states.


Peter Obi will win in all the South East, South South, North Central/Middle belts.

I mean if there is no rigging by party ruling a state.

Anybody who wins this election and is sworn in, if the person has billions of old naira hidden somewhere, he can still reverse the whole thing and declare that the old notes are no longer illegal.

I believe the advantage of this naira swap is that it may prevent vote buying.


But it may be reversed when the new administration comes on board

One man asserted that the reason he became gay was because of how women behaved towards him.

He said women so much rejected him that when a gay approached him for a relationship, he accepted and since then he has not looked back.

He said immediately he became gay, some women became willing to have sex with him, but he no longer wanted sex with women.


May God help us all to maintain our sexuality and morality.

When the queen of England died and a reporter asked women their opinions about the queen.

Almost all of them said something along this line "The queen performed better than the males. She taught the males how to rule"

Why not enunciate the achievements of the queen and leave males out of it.

The same way males enunciate their achievements without belittling the female gender.

Every time a woman succeeds, other women see it as a triumph over males.

It is therefore not surprising that many males don't want a woman to succeed because it would potentially be used against them.

The success of a woman is used as a facility to belittle men.

This is the perception of many men.

Although personally, I sincerely wish women success. I want 50 percent or more of leaders to be women.

If there is any election and a woman is contesting, I always vote for her.

But I wish that the society should disabuse the minds of women from the thinking that any time they succeed, it is a triumph over males.


Because of this, they would use the success to deal with a man who fall into their trap.

And because of this, many males don't wish a woman to be higher than them.

Personally, I always conceive great affection and love for women who are in leadership role.


Even if a woman is not attractive when I see her. Immediately it emerged that she is a leader of some sort; maybe she is a principal of a school, a commissioner, minister, etc, she immediately assumes attractiveness in my eyes.

A previously unattractive woman would suddenly look attractive when I discover her position in life.



But my discovery is that a rich woman always uses her position to fight and insult all males below her.

A rich and successful man does not see women as the target for insult or oppression.

Infact, a rich man may use his money to protect poor women.

But there is no rich woman that has never oppressed a man before to show her superiority.



I say this because I have witnessed it on so many occasions. Some males currently in prison are there at the instance of some successful women.



There's no rich and successful woman who can say without any equivocation that she has not at one point or another used her influence or money to oppress a man.


If a rich woman does not put a man in cell or prison, then she doesn't feel fulfilled.


I have seen some males who only find a woman attractive if she is successful or popular. But such men soon get to discover that such women are not the candidates for such admiration.

Immediately a woman is more successful than a man, she would not stop letting the man know he is nothing.

It is usual to hear such women saying things like: A broke man should not come near me.

One female writer in a newspaper once wrote that a man who earns N100,000 should not think of marriage.


Because she is into some stuff which gives her more than N100, 000 a month, she would not stop insulting all men who earn below her.

A wife that is more successful than a husband will not stop reminding him by her actions or utterances that he is nothing. But a more successful husband may still love and respect his less successful wife.


It's said that the reason the ancient society did not countenance the success of women was to protect the male gender.

That reveals the reason so many males don't want a woman to be successful in life, or to get above them in life.


A woman drove a new and expensive car into a compound and as I was happy for her achievement, a man cursed her and her car. When I asked why, he said women should not drive good cars because she would look down on everyone whose car is not up to her own.

While a man driving an expensive car would scarcely look down on all people, a woman in his position would consider everyone as dirt.

Although there may be some successful women who are different, but they are few.

That's my findings so far.

Bye for now.

Easier said than done. Until all these people are retired and put in their right place, eye service in government and non challant attitude to things that concern the masses would never end.

Before his appointment as the current minister of education, Adamu Adamu wrote'WHY ASUU IS ALWAYS ON STRIKE' in 2013

]

*From the Archives*

1. Adamu Adamu wrote this article as a patriot, out of concern for education
2. He wrote it as an observer and a columnist of a newspaper.
3. ASUU, like any reader, stumbled on the article in the newspaper
4. Adamu Adamu is currently the Nigeria's Minister of Education.

READ ON:

*WHY ASUU IS ALWAYS ON STRIKE*

By

_Adamu Adamu_

The current Minister of Education Mallam Adamu Adamu wrote this brilliant piece which was published in his Friday column, 15 November 2013. As the current faceoff between ASUU and the FG lingers on and considering the fact that mallam is now directly in charge of the situation, we have reproduced the piece to bring to light the position of the honorable minister on the same issue before he came into government.

With its 129 universities, 100-odd polytechnics and 85 colleges of education and a very I-don’t-care attitude to higher education, Nigeria spends less than 1 percent of its Gross National Income [0.85% to be precise:
; while four of its smaller English-speaking African compatriot-states spend multiples of that: Ghana [2.85%], Egypt [3.9%], Zimbabwe [5.4%] and South Africa [7%].

And while the percentage of education expenditure to total national expenditure in Nigeria is a paltry 8.4%, South Africa spends 20%, Morocco spends 26.4%, Botswana 25.6%, and French-speaking Guinea and Cote d’Ivoire spend 25.6% and 21.5% respectively.

*WHY ASUU IS ALWAYS ON STRIKE*

In spite of this, how Nigeria still dreams of joining the big league remains the biggest mystery. In what must now be seen by some as a joke, especially in view of its attitude to education, Nigeria has been saying it wants to be among the world’s top 20 economies by 2020.

But after laughing at this joke, we should remind policymakers that those nations that are in, or truly wish and look poised to join, the ranks of those top economies have a particular attitude to education that Nigeria doesn’t seem to share.

While Nigerians are always very good at mimicking educated global discourse as if they were the ones who invented it— corporate governance, information and communication technology, ICT, globalisation, climate change, the ozone layer, and the knowledge economy—their government has in fact been busy laying solid foundations for an ignorance economy.

And a comparison with China and India, the two countries of the BRIC whose rank Nigeria wishes to join, will quickly put Nigeria in its place. The Nigerian university system is, indeed, paralysed by a strike caused by government refusal to make the kind of investment the BRIC’s have been making.

Within a decade and a half, for instance, China invested in a massive expansion of its education sector, nearly tripling the share of GDP devoted to it, such that the number of higher- education institutions grew and more than doubled from 1,022 to 2,263 within a single decade; and within the same period, it was able to increase the population of its bachelor’s degree students from 3 million to 12 million.

At the moment, it has more than 20 million students studying in those institutions of higher learning. This is typically representative of what was happening in almost all of the BRIC’s, in which the total population of undergraduate students increased from about 19 million in 2000 to more than 40 million students in 2010.

And because China really means to develop its society and economy, the total number of its computer science and engineering graduates from its elite universities is more than the total number of such graduates from the United States.

That is why in the race where it matters, China has over 1,200,000 IT professionals and is adding 400,000 technical graduates each year. China ranks first in the world, followed by India and the US. IT professionals are so pitifully few in Nigeria; and, what’s more, the country is so inefficient, it doesn’t keep this kind of record.

The effect of China’s investment in education is already paying off. According to a report by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), which has tested high- school students since 2000, students from Shanghai’s schools outperformed those from 65 countries. They were followed by students from Korea, Finland, Hong Kong and Canada in that order. In the same test, students from the US ranked number 24.

And at the lower end, India has 373 universities with 16,000 affiliated degree-awarding colleges functioning under them; and. Like China, the emphasis in the tertiary level of education is on science and technology.

India has some 3495 degree- granting colleges with an annual student intake capacity of over 1.76 million with actual enrolment crossing 1.2 million in engineering alone. Total enrolment in science, medicine, agriculture and engineering crossed the 6.5 million limits in 2010, as expenditure on education grosses 4.1 per cent of GDP and surpasses the 12.7 per cent mark of total government expenditure.

In essence, the struggle by ASUU is to force the Nigerian government makes this type of investment. Obviously, it takes concern to understand the nature of what is going on, and it takes real public spiritedness to want to do something about it; and it takes uncommon patriotism to then go ahead and do it, especially for lecturers who face a barrage of insults, the prospects of possible job loss or pay withheld.

This nation owes a debt of gratitude to ASUU and the strike should not be called off until the government accepts to do—and does—what is required. This is why ASUU is always on strike.

The goal for ending the strike shouldn’t be to save parents anxiety or to take pity on students or to save lecturers’ jobs or to graduate students: it is to save the university system so that it becomes what it is supposed to be—a system for producing a culturally literate society, and for generating and harnessing ideas and knowledge, initiating and driving social and economic innovation, and ensuring national competitiveness on the global scene.

While for this to be possible, government should guarantee institutional autonomy for the university system, ASUU must ensure that campuses exercise this new power with utmost sense of responsibility and full accountability to all stakeholders.

This is the only way for Nigeria to realise its full potential as a guarantor of prosperity for its people and for its natural leadership position on the African continent. Without education and the full development of the nation’s human capital, Nigeria will never be able to achieve any of its national goals, targets or plans even if every grain of sand in the country becomes a barrel of oil.

In this, ASUU should see itself as a vanguard – probably the only active one—dedicated to making the government begin to tread the path of responsible good governance in the administration of education in Nigeria—and not just on university campuses.

Perhaps it should, in addition to what it already shoulders, take up the task of holding Nigeria responsible for, and forcing it to conform to, the six goals of Education for All by 2015 adopted thirteen years ago at the World Education Forum in Dakar.

These EFA goals, which are designed to improve learning opportunities for everyone, are: expanding and improving comprehensive early childhood care and education; ensuring universal access to and completion of free and compulsory primary education of good quality; improving learning opportunities for youth and adults; increasing adult literacy rates by fifty percent; achieving gender equality in primary and secondary education by 2015; and improving all aspects of the quality of education. We can go for a year without graduation, especially of people who will not be employed.

Calling off the strike is no big deal nor yet a cause for celebration; it is not just its calling off that is important, what is more crucial is what eventually happens to the university system as a result.

It is a hundred times better for this nation not to have graduates at all than to continue producing this army of half-baked [actually unbaked] graduates, 89 percent of whom, according to the boss of the National Youth Service Corps, cannot communicate in English, a charge that is as bad and shameful as the failure itself is deplorable and unacceptable—that Nigeria is still talking of communicating in English.

So many women are very rich. I like those rich ladies and those who have good jobs.

Karleb:
Just time o. I'm sorry for your loss.

Thank you.

ogawisdom:


Give it one year, time heals all injury

Ok. Thanks

Ishilove:

Time, they say, heals all wounds. I can't give you any advice because I don't know what you're going through, neither can I fully understand it. All I know is pain eventually fades. It might take time, but it fades. Death, like life is a part of our existence. Nobody will escape it and it will get to our turn one day, leaving those around us in pain, just as you are in pain.

Ask God for strength to pass through these dark, dark days and He will give it to you. Trust me, He will.

Thanks for this.

godofuck231:
The ability to bear grief and loss is termed as "fortitude" the vision of you stepping ahead and payers to your late mum will guide you along in life as time passes all wound will heal, so will yours , uou will become stronger emotionally and something new will come in your life giving you a greater sense of joy and happiness, thats when you will remember your mother and smile , how strong she was to be a mother to a star

Ok. Thanks

nnamdiosu:



So sorry for your lost. Trust me, the first few days will look like hell, especially when you see things that remind you off her. But after midnight, morning will come


Go somewhere different from where to too used to go


Have people you love come around and stay with you


Stay around children, they carry an energy that makes you smile or stop thinking.

Pray, God is very very close to heart broken people.

In all know that you are gonna be fine.
Just stay strong.

SHE WOULD WANT YOU TO BE FINE AND BE STRONG. DO THAT FOR HER.

PS: stop blaming yourself. IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT. IT WAS TIME.

PM ME IF YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO

Alright. Thanks

frozen70:


You will get over her death, just mourn her as what you are passing through is part of mourning her

You will definitely be fine

Alright. Thanks

JASONjnr:
Sorry bro..

To forget about her... you just have to accept the fact that she's no more and she's somewhere resting peacefully....


If you can't accept that... then you can't move away from it and it will drawn you....


Stay strong and positive.... Please dont stay idle... always find something doing for the next few months.... you need to take your mind I to something....

Ok. Thanks

chiefolododo:
I am persuaded that you will definitely go over it. It is just a matter of time.

You should be in touch with reality, she is no more. Being sorrowful will only affect you not her and consequently, you may start to live the life she would not be proud of. Cheer up.
May Jesus Christ comfort you.

Receive the oil of gladness

Thanks for this encouragement.

HRHQueenPhil:


I can't imagine wat u are goin through...u are not actually expected to get over it like as if it's a plague or fever but let this mind be in you, that mama is in a better place if she was a follower of our Lord Jesus Christ and consciously prepare to join her by following and obeying the instructions of our Lord Jesus Christ

Thank you so much for this words of encouragement.

What makes her death so striking(in the negative sense although) is the fact that she always listened to me, although I am not the first born.

When she was sick, if I mentioned that we should go to a hospital or church or anywhere, she would agree. But if my other brothers mentioned anything like that, she won't agree.

Anything I agreed upon, she always bought into it.

She seemed to have looked up to me more than to any other of her children.


So aside from the pain inherent in the death of a mother, I am also sad because it seems as if I was not able to prevent her death, even though she looked up to me.

It's almost a month now since my mom died and I cannot begin to get over the pains of the loss. My father died 22 years ago when I was yet a small boy and because I went to stay with my uncles, aunt cousins, and grandparents, I was able to get over it after some time, because of how I was treated with so much love, because I was still a child. Children can easily forget pains.


I have come to the recognition of the fact that there is nothing as painful as the loss of a mother.


The first day my mother died, I thought that I would not be able to survive the knowledge that she is no more.


Life looked so meaningless and unnecessary that it looked as if there was no need for me to continue living.

Because everything I have achieved so far was to please her and make her enjoy my money and my little achievement.


But she didn't even live to properly enjoy my money before dying.


Although I have come to accept it, but the shock of her death still continues everyday.

How can one get over the death of his mother considering the fact that someone cannot bring her back from the dead?

Let's assume you are required to choose between 2 evils namely:

a party that doesn't respect zoning arrangements and a party that doesn't respect the religious diversity of it's nation.

Which one do you think is less evil?

chrisifeanyi:


Oga wetin?

Nothing.

.

May the Lord's kindness and mercy heal our nation.

All political parties need God's grace to touch the hearts of their leadership and flag bearers so that we can have good leaders in our country.

No matter how evil our leaders are, God can change him or her so that the citizens can enjoy the fruits of good leadership.

The leadership of a country is evil and corrupt because the citizens themselves are corrupt and evil. So it is usually God's punishment to a nation because of their evil and wickedness that produces evil leaders.

But we hope for His mercy in Nigeria.

Remember in Exodus 34:6-8, it is written that The Lord God is merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.


In Psalms 103:8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy


Psalms 145:8 The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion, slow to anger, and of great mercy


Joel 2:13 God is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.
