So sorry to hear that. It is impressive to see her like going into farming to augment entertainment earnings. |
OoniOfIfe:Fallacy of hasty generalisation. |
Ginaz:The danger of the single story. Unfortunately, it is the norm with the narrow-minded. |
Verbal-linguistics intelligence is measured through different verbal fluency tests or, simply put, one's language proficiency or one's ability to learn a new language. Therefore, one's proficiency in English is, technically, a measure of an intelligence. |
The power of charity |

I am all for a formidable opposition |
It may interest you to know that this community is located in James Manager's senatorial district and he and his cohorts are responsible for all those abandoned projects, a senator who is alleged to be handling 300 NDDC contracts and has been fully paid for 120 contracts. The wickedness of man knows no bounds! |
What does a PCM do when the registration link in the email is disabled? Does it mean a PCM details have to be uploaded again by the school? |
What does it mean if it shows private, business on truecaller? Does it mean it is a business line or the person is not registered on truecaller or a scammer? |
I saw this post on Facebook and felt it would be nice to share it with a larger audience, especially in times like this that etiquette seems to be on the decline in the society. Have a nice read. ETIQUETTE : 1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to; 2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the other person remembers asking for it from you. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes; 3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner. If possible ask them to order their choice of food for you; 4. Don’t ask awkward questions like ‘Oh so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ Or why don't you buy a car? For God’s sake it isn’t your problem; 5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl, senior or junior. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public; 6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, try paying next time; 7. Respect different shades of opinions. Remember what's 6 to you will appear 9 to someone facing you. Besides, second opinion is good for an alternative; 8. Never interrupt people talking. Allow them to pour it out. As they say, hear them all and filter them all; 9. If you tease someone, and they don’t seem to enjoy it, stop it and never do it again. It encourages one to do more and it shows how appreciative you're; 10. Say “thank you” when someone is helping you. 11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately; 12. There’s almost never a reason to comment on someone’s weight. Just say, “You look fantastic.” If they want to talk about losing weight, they will; 13. When someone shows you a photo on their phone, don’t swipe left or right. You never know what’s next; 14. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors' appointment, don’t ask what it’s for, just say "I hope you’re okay". Don’t put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their personal illness. If they want you to know, they'll do so without your inquisitiveness; 15. Treat the cleaner with the same respect as the CEO. Nobody is impressed at how rude you can treat someone below you but people will notice if you treat them with respect; 16. If a person is speaking directly to you, staring at your phone is rude; 17. Never give advice until you’re asked; 18. When meeting someone after a long time, unless they want to talk about it, don’t ask them their age and salary; 19. Mind your business unless anything involves you directly - just stay out of it; 20. Remove your sunglasses if you are talking to anyone in the street. It is a sign of respect. Moreso, eye contact is as important as your speech; and 21. Never talk about your riches in the midst of the poor. Similarly, don't talk about your children in the midst of the barren...or talk about your spouses around those who don't have. |
I am beginning to think that social media has become a convenient platform for the promotion of idiocy! |
Avedonn:You are welcome. |
Avedonn:No, manually, through the exams and records unit. It took them a week to get my department to forward my details to them, another one week to put the transcript in place, and the last week was consumed on the courier. I paid 5k then but it is now 7k if the transcript is to be sent to another institution. |
Colb461:Tell your brother to report it to Unimaid SERVICOM Unit |
I love my Unimaid. Applied for my transcript for a postgraduate programme and it arrived on time. Three weeks. No bribe paid. God bless the University of Maiduguri. |
If PDP loses this election, it is entirely Dickson's fault. The imposition of candidates has made a lot of Bayelsans sceptical about the PDP's ability to bring about genuine development in the state. A lot of Bayelsans see an election of Senator Diri as a direct continuation of Dickson's privation governance. The imposition of an Urhobo as senator Diri's vice does not sit well with many Bayelsans. I see PDP losing this election to Dickson's foolishness. |
In this regard, Yenagoa and Lagos are "siblings"-- one big swamp! |
PapaBaby:Not in the US |
Remove electricity from the exclusive list and let's do away with the national grid. Everything nationally owned has a way of being supplied ineficiently and exploitatively in Nigeria. It is easier for citizens to hold states accountable for their electricity needs than the FG. |
Lagos is one big swamp when it rains! |
Liz Benson is a role model to many, a breakaway from the conventional celebrities of today! Congratulations |
Pls, can the same be done to our politicians? |
Sometimes I ask myself the essence of all this show-off. It does not make sense to me. |
Maybe there is another Dasuki in this administration! |
I claim it |
It is unfortunate that the army of idiots always seems to outnumber the sensible ones ... |
Neoteny:You see, you attributed to me what I never said. You have to apologise to me.
|
Neoteny:I never mentioned a thing like that. I would like to know how I got linked to that... That is not me... |
Neoteny:The emboldened is not mine. I never mentioned a thing like that. Wow!!! |
Neoteny:When I responded to that topic, I based my contribution on inventions. Theoretical Physics was off my mind. Even when I mentioned the Nobel Prize or a Global Prize, it was still in that context. Even in that context, I didn't totally ruled out the possibility of big inventions being made by Nigerians here in Nigeria, but I said it would be rare due to certain infrastructure which I didn't mention. You bringing in Albert Einstein in the reply was digression and an act of putting a word in my mouth and using it to crucify me. Maybe Economists need inventions to win a Nobel Prize. So don't tell me I am contradicting myself. |
Neoteny:I didn't say that you needed inventions to win a Nobel Prize. I only said that the type that merits such awards would be difficult to achieve in our environment. Even then, there was no outright ruling out of such possibility. A theoretical physicist does not need to make any inventions to win the Nobel Prize and quite a number of them have won the Nobel Prize, ranging from Albert Einstein to Richard Feynman. Even then, the essence of inventions is not to win prizes but to contribute to the improvement of humanity as well as expand our understanding of the universe. Shalom. |
