TravelRe: Nigerian Students In Germany..how Do You Survive?? by Williamso(m): 8:08pm On Jan 14, 2015
Good day beautiful people... Congrats to those already there. And as for the prospectives, good luck to us.

Since this thread is (supposed to be) meant for people already in Germany, I have to ask you all a question. What are the employment possibilities/probabilities for someone after completing his/her Masters degree? And I mean fulltime graduate level employment... Please your response will be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Jugoslavija, Југославија), once spelled and called "Jugoslavia", was a country in Southeast Europe during most of the 20th century. It came into existence after World War I.
The constituent six Socialist Republics that made up the country were SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, SR Croatia, SR Macedonia, SR Montenegro, SR Slovenia, and SR Serbia. Serbia contained two Socialist Autonomous Provinces: Vojvodina and Kosovo, which after 1974 were largely equal to the other members of the federation After an economic and political crisis in the 1980s and the rise of nationalism

Yugoslavia broke up along its republics' borders, at first into five countries, leading to the Yugoslav Wars.
After the breakup, the republics of Serbia and Montenegro formed a reduced federation

Serbia and Montenegro themselves broke up in 2006 and became independent states, while Kosovo proclaimed independence in 2008.
Dang harrysterol!!! Of course I know where it was. But it is no more, so your statement is invalid... It's just like saying Bendel is a state in Nigeria...

[quote author=Clandestine60 post=29617129][/quote]Thank you very much for your help. Started reading this thread from the first page today, already covered "good ground" and gotten lots of vital info. Unfortunately I had to post that question because I was yet to come across it and I need to make a decision as I will be heading to my school tomorrow. All the same, thank you very much...
TravelRe: German Embassy And Visa by Williamso(m): 8:12pm On Jan 08, 2015
Please I need you all to help me out here.
Was going through daad website, and most of the schools/degree options I saw require either offline application or a combination of offline and online. Only a few (2 or 3) use uni-assist. Knowing that they all require my transcript, how do I go about the application when my school charges 35k for transcript to Germany, and I plan to apply for not less than 5 schools, that will be 175k on transcripts alone, which is outrageous!!!

Will it be possible to obtain a student copy of my transcript and send out photocopies? Will it be valid? Please I need you all to guide me here...


Oye50:
U cannot undermine the power of Internet, u can actually search for the specific info u require on Nairaland. All u need u is use the search engine provided on NL and filter it to travel section. I bet u, what u need will surface. I've got a million and 1 questions but I don't need to ask anyone, though I've read almost all the pages, yet I can get any info I require per time
That method didn't help me here bro... Thanks for the tip though
TravelRe: German Embassy And Visa by Williamso(m): 7:12am On Jan 08, 2015
Good day all. I must say a big thank you for what you all are doing here - giving out vital information for free. It is very much appreciated...
While I don't blame any of you for not spoonfeeding/breastfeeding newbies like me, I want you to realize that going through 477 pages of important (and unimportant) information is not easy, and not something one can do in a day... Even if you don't want to explain to a newbie in detail, a simple page-range reference, if you know it, won't be so bad...
Nevertheless, I'm about to start reading every page on this thread from page 0 so as to graduate from breastmilk to spoonfeeding...
Once again, really really grateful for what you lot are doing. grin

Bros I saw that naaa. I've seen a lot of schools with different variations of Computer Science at MSc level. I only felt the ones that would be recommended here might be better in terms of an international (Nigerian) presence, and acceptance rate.

Like I said, I'm a serious JJC and I have no clue on a lot of things that have been said on here. Abeg no vex for me, the akamu too hot grin.

I'm a JJC to the whole traveling thing but I'd love to do my MSc program in Germany. Been reading a lot of posts, randomly flipping between pages. Please what universities would be good to run a Computer Science MSc? Also, I graduated with a CGPA of 3.33. Would this be a barrier? I have a truckload of questions, but let me pause here and continue reading the pages.
A candid response will be extremely appreciated.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Can't Men Wear Earrings In Church? by Williamso(m):
The comments on this thread are reasons why Nairaland Christians disgust me angry
All the "Christians" quoting Deuteronomy 22:5, even the OP's post says the earrings are not just a female attire, so claiming men can't wear it because it's for women is balderdash!!!
None of you NL Christians can quote a single verse to counter the OP so you go on hurling insults: imagine someone typing "Minister of Homosexuality"!!! *spits* angry angry

Fact is, guys don't wear earrings to church because it's against our societal norms. Period.

Lol...speak for urself brother..

And many youths around me here..right now have listed more than enough ways to tackle BH insurgency...
OK oh!! You and your knowledgeable friends should tell GEJ how to stop BH, since you obviously know more than him, NSA, CDS, COAS, and minister of defense combined!!! Heck do you even know the strength of the Nigerian Army o' knowledgeable ones??

Because he made a comment about him bringing a stable supply of electricity, doesn't make him ignorant of the government matters, sir! It was a promise made to his people which I'm a beneficiary...where I am...he has built a dam that has been supplying a steady light that last for days...
You just don't get it. HE PROMISED THE ENTIRE NIGERIA STEADY POWER AND JUST BECAUSE YOU AND OTHER NUMERICALLY INFINITESIMAL PEOPLE ENJOY IT DOESN'T MEAN THE REST OF US DO. e.g, I've barely had 6 hours of power this year!!! Besides that was an example; I could list other promises he made without factoring the realities on ground, but that's not the point here.

A ruler is thus an owner and a leader is a driver.

I believe you're intelligent enough to know which is more dictatorial between a leader and a ruler with respect to governance. Seems you would rather be governed by Kim Jong-un than Barack Obama...



You're overtly biased towards this current administration. I thought you had an open mind but this your last post has proved otherwise. Nice having a conversation with you, but I won't reply any of your posts again.

We don't want somebody who is ignorant on how to run a democratic government to rule us...we need an eligible pundit not a mafian.....
Hahahahaha!!! Tell me how many youths can tell you in detail how to stop boko haram. Going by your analogy, presidents should lead for life since they're in the govt and know a lot about it.

You and I are even more ignorant than buhari is on govt matters; to think otherwise would be foolery.

Even GEJ was ignorant as a Vice President that is why he went on air claiming he will singlehandedly bring about stable supply of power. He's the president now, he knows a lot of things (that we and buhari don't know) hindering the power sector. He can't come out and openly say such baseless propositions again.

BTW, I am nonpartisan and yet to be convinced by either of the two candidates. I just believe the OP wasn't fair to buhari.

However, let's not forget that the minimum academic requirement to be president is an O' Level certificate. But if that also cannot be proven, then we have to ask questions about the 2003, 2007, and 2011 elections...

The essence of a manifesto was to put a detail of his goals and objectives....in few sentences..he could've explained how he'd tackle insurgency...

If I come to ur house and tell you that I can eliminate poverty from ur family forever...won't you expect me to explain how i'll go about it? Will you just give me a go-ahead...without a clue?
Lol... Let me rephrase your question:
If you had a domestic staff (house help), and someone comes to your house claiming that he/she is capable of doing a better job and says "I will wash your car regularly and make sure your car is never dirty", meanwhile your current staff knows that there isn't always water where you stay. Would you say the one coming to meet you for a job is inept or is it excusable? Please give your honest answer... Thanks.

Not excusable
Lol... Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I believe your PDP/GEJ bias has clouded your sense of judgment.
If the opposition (APC) has sensitive information, you all will accuse them of "sabotage" and "leaking sensitive information", especially when it comes to issues like Boko Haram as is in the OP. Is he supposed to publish in detail how he intends to stop their insurgency? Wouldn't that be a whole new level of stupidity? Did the Republicans know when the American Marines were going to take out Osama bin Laden?

IMHO, any government that cannot keep classified information classified is grossly incompetent. At least the PDP/GEJ administration is doing a fairly good job in this aspect.

Haba, see excuse. The op said he did not tell us how he would achieve majority of the things he promised to do. He didn't offer ant inadequate explanation. If he does not understand what is inside, then he has no business in being the opposition because the opposition always has an answer different from the ruling government. If he doesn't understand how things are, he has no business in governance. It means he has lost touch.
I'm not saying buhari shouldn't have an answer to anything, I'm saying it's excusable that he doesn't know everything.
How can you possibly expect the opposition to understand everything inside the government? That's why some things are classified.. If they aren't, the whole world would know, not just the opposition!!!

I'm not a buhari supporter BTW. If you knew me, you'd know how nonpartisan I am...
PoliticsRe: The Trouble With The Buhari Manifesto BY ABIMBOLA ADELAKUN by Williamso(m): 12:44pm On Jan 01, 2015
Buhari is obviously not in government, so I expect him to be oblivious of certain realities. You can't describe how the sitting room is from outside the house. The real problem arrives when you can't describe the sitting room from inside...

mprexx:
Marriage should be seen as a means to an end; the end being "HAPPINESS" and not an end in itself, so if you are not yet married, do not allow the society put unnecessary pressure on you because if you get into an endurance marriage, the society won't be there to sympathize with you. And if you are married and your marriage is all about gloom, don't be scared to get out ASAP, because if you get maimed, you will almost certainly suffer it alone, and if you die, someone else will take your place. The world will not end.

Personally, I would rather be divorced and happy, than married and broken...
If only all women could think like this, the society will be a lot better.... (Un)fortunately, that won't happen anytime soon.
