I will not trade insult with you cos you seems not to know who government work.. read some more and come back so I can evaluate your intellect.

You have a point but there is better paying jobs in USA and the government still give food stamps even to people with jobs. I'm not for or against stomach infrastructure but to condemn it is evil. UK, USA, Germany all have different kinds of stomach infrastructure so why can't Ekiti state have one?

Queenlovely:
Nigeria will start coming to condemn the governor.

But let us think for a minute. This thing will continue like this till infinity.
I believe if there was better paying job nobody would even look at government job.

Imagine we sell shares of 100 each to 180 million Nigerians. We would raise enough capital to even send a man to space. Break scientific barrier and build factories. We would be giant of africa. We Won't depend on your politicians.

Even we could put electricity in every home. But we start complaining

You are the idiot here. There is food stamp in USA. That's is stomach infrastructure. Nothing is wrong a government providing for less privilege among the citizen.

cuedish:
That heediot. ....
He has an issue of misplaced priorities +
High rate of poverty in that place called ekiti.
Fayose has practically enslave them

Price? I'm surprised nobody is quoting the price of the shoes cos that's what Nigerian celebrity are knows for.

How long does APC think they can get away with lie and propaganda? Instead of concentrating to nation rebuilding and providing their numerous electoral promises, APC result to lie and cheap blackmail. Propaganda can win you win but it can't get the job done. With less than two years to the next election and nothing to show then APC is going to the dust.

Can you counter his write with fact and figure and not insult? You need to reason like a man and not a little kid.

I am disappointed in a learned person like you reasoning like a child. Reno makes a valid point backed with fact and figure and all you can say is who is getting into trouble. The last time I checked, Nigeria is a democratic society and Buhari does not own Nigeria.









[quote author=whateverkay post=62293393]Jonathan is a useless man. Buhari is by far a better president than him. God bless buhari

What does Fayose ambition and Buhari forgiveness have in common? Nigeria need working institutions and not one man can do it all like Buhari and his abject failure is for all to see. Working economy world over built institutions because man last for few years while institution last forever.
I'm neither for PDP or APC because either can make Nigeria better without going to the basics which is build institutions that work and things will fall in place..

lightblazingnow:
When you have just one kick to score the golden goal, you might technically be confused on the style to adopt.

Fayose, faith works by love works not blind calculated movie

I am very sure you are walking in the dark, for those who are close to the governor please pray for him, for he is very confused,he knows PMB do not forgive, and for sure he is on his way to.......... don't mention..

I used to think sponsored protest is only for politician but guess I'm wrong. Nigeria has gone to the dogs...

You can buy a house with No ID. Just pay cash and you're good to go.

HungerBAD:
It is different when it is in Western Countries.

There are long processes you have to go through before buying properties, and it requires positive identifications. Don't forget that the buyers will have to come through the borders of the country, and they will require some kind of Visa to come in,and that Visa will be in their names.

Even Properties bought with a company fronting for them, can still be traced to the owners. And even in some Countries like the US, there are still one or two vetting processes the name has to go through even if he is paying cash, that a lot of people are not aware of. There is a Black list database for terrorists and Launderers that they have to run their name through,and if it fails, they will not be allowed to purchase a property in the United States.

If the properties are in in his names in any Western Country, then it is his.

Magu lies do not hold water.

Let us wait for the SAID properties to be listed. For Magu to come out early fighting, then i suspect it must be the truth,

You are wrong about USA minimum wage. The federal minimum wage is 7:25 while state make their own minimum wage but it can't go lower than federal minimum wage.

Nigerians decided to vote Buhari and take the country years backward. The same way American decide to vote Trump and take America years backward. I really can't explain the rationale behind voting for him and I'm surprise to see a anyone campaigning for him to continue all this nonsense. Poverty is on the rise, corruption everywhere and he took everything to unimaginable height by disobeying court order. This is the lowest of the low.

Buhari is the definition of promise and fail. He had failed to fulfill any of his campaign promises and the only thing that looks like any success is just a window dressing. How can you be fighting corruption when you are appointing corrupt people and even promoting them? It's an irony that can only be explain in Buhari administration

There is nothing to ascertain. It is a vanity project based of level of poverty in the state. How many people in the state can afford a flight ticket? How many airline will want to take a risk on the airport when it is obvious they are going to make a lose due non patronage. We need to have our priority right in Nigeria. Airport should be the least of the list of a state who is struggling to pay workers salaries.

SageTravels:
@Mynd44 Justwise Seun lalasticlala

How I wish we have aviation Master plan based on demand and traffic so that we can ascertain if this is not a vanity project.

US deport UK citizens and UK deport US citizens.. Deportation can happen for various reasons and you can be allow to enter same country that deport you as long as you are not deported on criminal charges.

TWoods:
Good luck to you both.

I think the problem isn't that Nigerians are pessimistic, it is a question of why Nigerians have a predilection for doing things the crooked way. If we were simply honest, threads like this would not exist and we would not require a visa to go anywhere.

Also we need to be sure that we are describing the same situation. I doubt the UK or US would be willing to grant you a visa knowing that you've once been deported for falsifying a visa. But as i said, feel free to try.

You are wrong. I had been deported before and i still got F1 visa 4 years ago. I really don"t understand while Nigerians generally are pessimist. All they see is the dark side of life

TWoods:
If this is true then your sister can forget about going to the US, Canada, the UK etc. The question of whether you have ever been deported from any country is asked on their application forms. Stating the use of a falsified visa as the reason is sure to lead to an automatic denial. Sometimes, pure honesty is better than endless fasting and prayer.

$120 is money when you have your rent, gas, water, car note and God forbid you have a student loan to pay each months. My point is simple, nothing come cheap and for Nigerians to think government can do everything for then is to expect irregular services. I am a beneficiary of free education in Nigeria and I also paid for my degree elsewhere and I can authoritatively tell you, I will rather pay for quality education than enrolled in free but strike infected, lectures victimization of studentstudent, missing scripts etc.

koboko69:
Why didnt y add that the $120 comes with unlimited 4GLTE. How much is $120 a month for sattelite and wifi for someone who as a job in the states?

You're on point. Nigerian want good stuff but does not want to pay for it. Cable TV is expensive every part of the world. It cost over $120 to get a decent channels in States and it could go as high as $250 with all the add on. Good stuff does not come cheap thought DSTV monopoly is long overdue but the new Cable TV is not a rival for DSTV. I am of the opinion DSTV would concentrate on the rich while the new cable TV target the middle class and the poor.

Chartey:
Nollywood producers will still prefer to give Africa Magic their new movies because DSTV pays them better.

DSTV has poured millions of dollars in into the Nigerian Professional Football League without any profit yet the govt did not give them any tax relief. I see this development making the NFF very uncomfortable.

TV stations like Soundcity and Hip TV will still prefer the DSTV platform because they pay them better. Besides DSTV is partly responsible for the acceptance of Nigerian music across Africa.

Many people are addicted to the shows Telemundo and Zee World which TSTV does not have. Not everybody watches sport. That was the same assumption that killed HiTv.

I don't see DSTV collapsing. They're in so many countries although Nigeria is their second most important market. They have over 200 channels with something for everybody.

People don't know that subscription is actually cheaper in Nigeria than for instance Ghana. Cable TV is a luxury everywhere in the world. Sky is expensive in the UK too.

This competition will be good for the Nigerian consumer and is welcome but people please let's not get our hopes too high. TSTV has to earn credibility and our support.

I disagree with you on some point. You can still gradate with second class lower with 10 carry overs. Academic success does not necessarily translate to success in life. My advice to your friend is


1. She need to admit, accept her current situation and talk to her parents cos NO hiding place now

2. Extra year is not an end to life. All she needs to is face her extra year and pass those courses and move on with her life.

3. She can use her extra year to her advantage by looking into her passion and go for it



Note: I have close to 5 carry overs in my undergraduate program and I still gradate with 3.08 CGPA..

eezeribe:
I don't know what her current CGPA is... But with 10 carryovers,I doubt if it's up to 2.0...
I would suggest the following options for her :

1)If she is like the average Nigerian girl,let her manage and write the carryovers,if she can at least pass them,graduate with a 'University attempted degree' and get married because that is the highest achievement of the average Nigerian girl.

2)If she has career dreams and passions,and her sponsors are still willing to help her,she should quietly write JAMB UTME,apply for her dream course Banking and finance and start all over again..

3)If she and her sponsors cannot stand to bear an extra year,she should quietly drop out of the University and get married or venture into business,while telling the whole world that she is a graduate (so many successful businessmen and politicians in Nigeria,are living like this)

3)If she is too frustrated,she can quietly jump into the Lagos lagoon because I wonder what she was doing to accumulate 10 carryovers....

lalasticlala,Mynd44

It does work just like insurance scam work in western world. Every society has it ill and I believe Nigeria and African countries dark side is spiritual believe while someone who want to make quick money in America without working will go into insurance scam. No country is a saint just we go about it different ways..

You're wrong dear. Armed robber attract death penalty and people still go into robbery. Harsh punishment does not deter criminals.

kennygee:
Three crimes dragging us back in this country.

Corruption

Drug trafficking

Internet Fraud

If we can mete out the death penalties for these crimes, things would be better.

But then, our judicial system sucks.

I have had sex inside my cars over hundred times and yet to have engine or transmission issue.

Maybe you are right but motive alone is nothing without backing it with actions. Nigerians does not vote him because of his motives, he was voted in to perform and delivers on his electoral promises. As it stand, he has failed everybody who voted for him and the better he know he need to perform now, the better for him or be prepare to get send packing from Aso rock.

Cinkq:
May almighty strenghten president buhari to fufil all his promises. i will continue to reiterate that president buhari has good motives,this is what is giving some of us hope that Nigeria will be better by the time his tenure ends.

APC let Nigerians down with underperformance and now crown it with lopsided fight against corruption and they are quick to tag anyone who disagree with them as corruption fighting back. As is stand, the devil stand a better chance to win election in Nigerian than APC do.. Another word for APC is failure

sound like a high school sh!t. Tell him to go get a life.

APC colossal failure on electoral promises has made PDP has a chance of making a come back though PDP failure during it reign is out in the open. I really can't comprehend how APC will trow away the good will of the electorate they receive on the of gold. As the look of things due that non performance of APC, Evans the kidnapper stand a better chance been elected as president than Buhari do.

Your analysis is flawed. You forget to minus dependants, unemployed and senior citizens. You can't just tax everybody in a state regardless of their employment status.

mrvitalis:
This is actually very small to run a state

Imagine my state imo with over 3million people with 17bn in 6 months ??

If every individual is taxed 5k a month that's 15bn every month and with that we will get our desired development and we will have reason to hold our governors accountable

But no we decide to spend far more to achieve nothing

A typical car owner in Nigeria will spend 400k a years averagely to maintain his cars

But as him to pay a tax of 10k a month for road maintaince that will save his car he will protest

We have over 11 million cars in Nigeria ...if on average each pays 10k every month that's 110bm that's over 1.2 trillion on road maintaince

Say federal government takes 30% and states 70% of what you contribute tell me why we would have bad roads

First, NCE is only recognized in Nigeria and there is no equivalent of NCE in America. Second, teaching in America as a Nigerian with heavy accent like ours is very difficult but possible. If your dream is to be a teacher in America, I will advise you to apply for BSc in Education in America and you will be good to go. I'm advising you as a graduate of Educational management in Unilag and als living in Virginia presently and ain't teaching.

immaq8:
pls I wish to continue my teaching in U. S bt I've only NCE. What would be ur advice?

Legally, there is not power vacuum but morally, who leave his post for 3 months and not lose his or her job? Buhari has shown average Nigerians that he is more corrupt than any politician because out of job for months and still getting paid is worse than corruption..

APC and Buhari keep getting unpopular each passing day. A press conference from Mr president would have solve all this problem but he chose not to. More than half of those who voted for Buhari will think twice now because he represent not even the masses that he claimed to represent. PDP might not be an alternative but APC is giving average Nigerian no chance than to for PDP. Hunger knows no region, political parties and when average people on the street can't feed their families, locality to a political party goes thru the window. APC is fast going to an extinction but PDP is not even an alternative. I weep for Nigeria

Keep up the blame game up and you will be surprise your wife and immediately families will not vote for you in 2019. Nothing tangible has been achieve in this administration. People voted for change and not blame game.

Nigeria and our stone age thinking. The world is moving toward cleaner energy and the VC who should be the one championing that still think discovering of oil will solve North problem. Tesla car runs without gas and the world is adopting that development. Wake up My VC

GEJ has his numerous fault but millions times better than Buhari. It still assume me how Nigeria voted for Buhari when we have people who can take this country to promise land but we chose someone who could not operate an iPad in this jet age. Guess we love to learn the hard way
