WHY ARE HND DEGREE HOLDERS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THIS SCHOLARSHIP?

IS THIS A FAIR PRACTICE?

dermmy:
A land forcefully taken from the original inhabitants and was returned in accordance with ICJ ruling. Just because you want to take Greenland doesn't mean those who want to obey international order and directives should not.

Did the same United Kingdom ( Great Britain ) returned the Falkland Island to Argentina.

The answer is No.

Fiscus105:
Hope he didn't collect some babe, in which that one has heavily invested on her

WHO KNOWS ?

But that should not have resulted in this brutal killing.

Human should not go to the extreme to express their bitterness.

Darkseidreloade:
Why e dy nairaland? How this news take concern us?

We are in the internet age and it is global.

Nairaland is not for only Nigerian people.

It also has a lot of global audience who follow the platform.

There are many Nigerians that watch Aljazeerah News, BBC, CNN, Voice of America, Radio France, Deutshewele station etc

Years back, it was Reggae Musician, Late Lucky Dube that was shot.

Now it is a DJ.

SpaceX:
Nothing new here, same old news

BE GRATEFUL FOR THE GOOD NEWS EVEN IF IT IS OLD TO YOU.

What are African Political leaders doing with the public fund that are available at their disposal.

Shame on South South Political leaders.

They do not wish their people growth and economic development.

NIGERIA TYPE OF FEDERALISM CREATED THE LOOPHOLES WHICH FOREIGNERS ARE EXPLOITING TO GET WHAT ORIGINALLY WAS MEANT FOR THE PEOPLE.

Shehu Sani’s question misses the real issue.

Nigerians are not blind to opportunities in their own country. The problem is not a lack of vision by Nigerians, but a flawed political and economic structure created by our form of federalism and sustained by poor leadership.

Nigeria claims to operate a federal system modeled after the United States, yet refuses to practice it in full. Resources are centralized at the federal level and redistributed politically, rather than allowing regions to control and develop their own wealth. This distortion of true federalism creates an uneven playing field.

Foreigners—Chinese, Indians, and Lebanese—do not succeed in Nigeria because they “see better” than Nigerians. They succeed because the system favors those with access to centralized power, capital, and government connections concentrated in Abuja. Many of them can fly directly into the capital, secure contracts, licenses, and protection, and dominate sectors before local people even have a chance.

If power and resources were genuinely devolved to the regions and grassroots, the story would be different. Opportunities would be closer to the people, local industries would thrive, and Nigerians would not need to flee abroad in search of dignity and stability.

No foreigner will casually walk into villages, towns, and local economies to exploit opportunities where power truly belongs to the grassroots. Centralization is what makes this possible.

So the issue is not that Nigerians fail to recognize opportunities at home. The issue is a political structure that concentrates power at the centre and excludes ordinary citizens.

In this context, Shehu Sani is chasing shadows, not addressing the root cause.

Baronthecelebri:
Nigeria don't value their own

NIGERIAN VALUE THEIR OWN.

THE PROBLEM IS WITH OUR KIND OF FEDERALISM AND THE POLITICAL LEADERS.

THEY BORROWED AMERICAN SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT BUT THEY DO NOT ACCEPT IT IN WHOLE.

THEY KEEP RESOURCES OF SOME REGIONS AT THE CENTRE AND SHARE IT TO LAZY STATES WHICH IS A REVERSE OF TRUE FEDERALISM AND RESOURCE COUNTRY.

Mrfixitt:
Consolidate your party and give Gej or Peter Obi your flag and Tinubu will be gone

PDP is dead and buried.

CodeTemplarr:
The "idioticity" of APC is astounding to say the least.

Because of Islam and economic amnesty push, they will produce pictures to support rescue of hostages to help potray and project an invincible terrorists unit image but never pictures to support neutralization of terrorists or bandits as they like to call them. Isn't that wonderfully idiotic?

Leave Political party.

Most of the political leaders in Apc like Akpabio were once in PDP

It is a Nigerian problem

Ikaeniyan0:
I'm impressed with the SU-27,SU-30,F-35,French Rafale and F-22 crash rate

saintkel:
All from d north and yet they want to rule Nigeria....na southern Nigerians I de pity especially those from d west ...make una continue d form alliance

YORUBA PEOPLE FROM THE SOUTH WEST PART OF NIGERIA ARE THE ONES THAT IS STILL MAINTAINING THIS "UN-HOLY ALLIANCES" WITH THE POLITICAL LEADERS OF NORTHERN NIGERIA.

The South West Political Leaders prefer easy money from the Niger delta region.

They do not want to pursue Agriculture.

When Fulani will enter Kwara state and Kogi State and start killing yoruba the media houses and the press in the South West will be raising their voices wailing that they are being killed by Fulani.

Now that their brother TINUBU is in Power they are not border fighting for RESTRUCTURING OF THE FEDERAL SYSTEM IN NIGERIA WHICH IS ACTUALLY "A UNITARY SYSTEM"

Gotocourt:
Lt Yerima's presence at the scene while serving a retired naval chief was legitimate and within military regulations.

It is not Legit

That is why Wike told him to his face that he is a fool.

LagosOrigin:
Bad market for all those Ogun, Oyo and Osun people claiming Lagos 😂

We said it that time will come that the true indigines of Lagos will be separated from chaffs from other south west states claiming Yoruba is one .

Who told you that Yoruba is one?

If you're not an indigine of Lagos, you don't have the right to claim you're from Lagos. Infact, you're no different from the Chinedu from Enugu and Ahmed from Kano living in Lagos.

But if regional government comes in the South West

The situation might be different.

But Lagos still have major environment problems like underground polluted water.

Atlantic ocean surge which affect the land area.

It is becoming tighter by space companies are shifting to Ogun state, Oyo state, Ondo state

Orlandoo:
Lere all these ass licking will end one day, and the people backing you now will no longer be there.

They are doing their official assignment.

Many senior government officials particularly the military men bought Nigeria with stolen Niger Delta oil money during their time.

Jhoneyman:
That was America of Bill Clinton and George Bush, and NOT America of Donald Trump. Who and what you that Trump would respect if he has no regard for Marcron of France, Keimer of Britain, Putin of Russia, Xi of China and back Africa, Ramaphosa of South Africa? Who are you to deserve respect from Trump, a man who Macron a fool to his face? Then you were never a threat to the Americans because all you had

What about Late President of USA in the 80s Ronald Reagan?

He is equally as Tough as President Donald Trump.

Late President Reagan ordered USA jet bomber to strike Tripoli and Benghazi under the watch of late Libya leader, Late Muammer Gaddafi.

To teach Ghaddafi a naughty lesson

ALTERNATEID:
This is a welcome development. While Nigeria should keep engaging the US government to iron things out, we should also be discussing alliance and military cooperation with foreign powers like Russia and China.

Russia and China should hold their peace.

When the Islamic Terrorist were killing christians where were they?

tundegan:
President Tinubu is on the right track. Engaging diplomatically while focusing on our economic reforms is key. The recent oversubscription of the Eurobond shows that investors believe in Nigeria. We will overcome our challenges and emerge stronger.

Keep praising a government that promote Yoruba ethnic bigotry.

Nigeria is a Zoo as you have been calling it.

Now you went to disgrace the country in Mauritius.

WorkTheTalk:
For their minds, Russia is winning the war against Ukraine. The war Putin bragged that he will conquer Ukraine in 2 weeks is dragging into years now. The same Russia is using dubious means to recruit cheap military machineries from African countries, plus borrowed troops from North Korea just to fight Ukraine, Yet he can't overrun Ukraine.

Isn't it insane for people to always compare America and Russia in military capabilities? America simply allowed Russia to fight Ukraine to expose Putin's weakness.

***************************************

It is important to move away from the oversimplified narrative that “Russia has failed” just because the war has lasted longer than expected. Modern large-scale wars are rarely quick or predictable. The United States — which many like to compare — also fought in Afghanistan and Iraq for decades without achieving total military or political domination. Duration alone is not a measure of victory or defeat.

Secondly, the claim that Russia is “borrowing troops from Africa and North Korea” is largely unverified propaganda. Both sides in a war use various international supply lines, but Russia still maintains one of the world’s largest standing armies, advanced missile systems, and a significant nuclear arsenal. It produces most of its own military hardware — something not true for many nations.

More importantly, the conflict must be viewed through geopolitics, not social-media mockery. Russia is not fighting Ukraine alone — it is battling a country backed heavily by NATO intelligence, training, funding, satellites, drones, and billions of dollars worth of Western weapons. If Russia was truly as powerless as some claim, the war would have ended long ago.

The idea that America is “allowing” this war to expose Putin is also misleading. The United States is deeply involved — and the prolonged conflict has revealed weaknesses on both sides:

* Russia underestimated Ukrainian resistance and Western resolve.
* NATO discovered that prolonged war strains its own ammunition stocks and economic stability.

If anything, this war shows the global balance of power is shifting. The U.S. is strong, no doubt — but Russia remains a nuclear superpower with enormous military and industrial capabilities. The world is not as unipolar as many assume.

War should not be reduced to cheerleading for one side or another. The real tragedy is the human cost — lives lost, cities destroyed, and a global economy shaken. That is where our focus should be, not in celebrating the suffering of others or simplifying a complex geopolitical struggle into internet banter.

Let the 36 states remain the way they are.

For the sake of peace

RESTRUCTURE NIGERIA

END Corruption and insecurity in Nigeria

The core northern region and the middle belt states should go and face Agriculture.

That is our collective mandate to the Tinubu administration.

Stop this northerners over dependent on the southern region for their everyday survival.

Nnamdi Kanu, his brother, legal team that is detained should be freed unconditionally.

Federal government should direct its tax effort to the right sectors.

They are just after online users that struggle to create something for themselves.

Cattle Herdsmen that move their cattle from places to places are not tax.

They eat free grasses and they collect all the profit.

The Super Eagles failed to put in the right effort when it matter most.

They were loosing important match even with football team that were not known in the game of football.
