Can you go to USA or UK 🇬🇧 or CANADA or Australia 🇦🇺 and start answering Engineer just because you are self trained in computer science, Arduinos, soldering, python language, motors, arms, power, FORTRAN, PASCAL, BASIC and programmable logic controllers? TRY AM


Now let me help your ignorance. Every country on earth 🌍 has a regulatory professional body which registers, certifies an intending professional has all the STANDARD ORGANIZATION qualifications necessary to practicing the profession in the country , Such a body can seize your license to practice your profession in the country if you go against ethical standards for that field in the country & deliver substandard work or other violations


◾️If you are not a licensed registered engineer 👷🏾‍♂️In the Uk 🇬🇧 or USA 🇺🇸 You cannot add engineer to ur title in the country and you are not allowed 🚫 to render engineering services within the country.
—-same if you are not a certified doctor in the country, you must get certified & registered afresh as a doctor there before you can render doctor services within the country. And the regulatory body certifying your fit to practice your profession in that country, ensures you meet all the fundamental qualifications necessary as laid down by standards regularly body for that particular profession before certifying you.

▪️ To officially add Welder or plumber to ur title in USA 🇺🇸 or Uk 🇬🇧 ; and practice as a skilled trade welder in the country; You must be tested and certified by the relevant skilled trades body in the country to ensure you really know the work to minimum standards required in the country and have all minimum professional qualifications necessary.

—-Now let me reiterate to u that Engineering STEM family , consists of Engineers/ Engineering technical managers at the top of the pyramid, followed by Technologists , then Technicians and at the bottom of the pyramid, artisans. Artisans have the lowest entry qualifications level & license level for any country on earth.and artisans are the lowest technical cadre.

Only the SCIENTIST researching and formulating new foundational principles of science like NEWTONS LAW OF MOTION, etc which the engineer and the technologist practicalize on to bring NEW INVENTIONS TO LIFE FOR THE GOOD OF MANKIND, tops the engineer.
Artisans report to Technicians who report to Technologists who report to Engineers in any standard technical organisation. And their salaries are in that order

——l don’t know about USA professional body name.

——◾️ Qualification for Artisan in Nigeria is just go to the road side or meet anybody when sabi the work or YouTube anywhere u fit LEARN THE WORK skills .


Learn the skills trade and get practical knowledge of playing around with machines.
Roadside mechanic; Roadside electrician, Roadside Auto-electrician, Self taught in computer science, Arduinos, soldering, python language, motors, arms, power, FORTRAN, PASCAL, BASIC and programmable logic controllers,etc all are in this group.

Artisans only need to demonstrate & prove that they sabi the work skills. Artisans are certified and licensed by skilled trade body in the the organized developed world. And if they violate minimum ethical standards , the artisan regulatory body can seize their license to practice.

The distinguishment among all the cadre levels of the engineering STEM family is clear cut in abroad organized countries.
Not Nigeria that every self taught artisan or roadside or YouTube taught artisan answers engineer carelessly.

My first question to you was at 3:38pm. 4 hours later, you still haven't been able to answer my questions.

How come that a senior military officer like yourself that "knows Nigerian Military doctrine and traditions" can't answer simple questions but has to search the internet for answers to the questions of an "outsider" and "civilian"?

1. When was the new COAS appointed and decorated as a Lt. Gen?

2. Since you are in the military, pls identify the rank of the two men in the pix.

3. You should also tell me the law that says a new COAS automatically becomes a Lt. Gen. upon appointment.

Are you still searching the internet or you simply don't know the answers to my questions?

The Nigerian Army itself is telling you he is now a Lieutenant General
I told you he’s a Lieutenant General
What proof do you need again if not that you just want to look right or argue what you don’t know?
I suspect you’re one junior officer that thinks he knows Nigerian Military doctrine and traditions but you clearly don’t
We cannot reveal ourselves online just for arguement sakes I for show you say I suppose know

All service chiefs are elevated to the equivalent of Lieutenant General AFTER appointment and the Defense chief becomes a full General according to Nigerian Military Tradition

Ordinarily, the lieutenant general rank is usually held by only the Chief of Army Staff which implies there is usually only one serving lieutenant general in the Army at a time but there have been some occasions where

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lieutenant_general_(Nigeria)

Google is your friend
At hand over Buhari did not hand over to president Tinubu, he became after hand over. Same with Lagbaja

Future decorations are merely ceremonial

Also his position is Senate confirmed. That doesn’t mean just because he isn’t confirmed yet he hasn’t started walking in the shoes if not all his appointments are nonsense

lexy2014:
Where is the argument u referring?

Did you understand the simple question?

Since you have done your research, why can't you answer the simple question....When was the new COAS appointed and decorated as a Lt. Gen?

Since you are in the military, pls identify the rank of the two men in the pix.

You should also tell me the law that says a new COAS automatically becomes a Lt. Gen. upon appointment.

Farmers pouring maize in the ocean. Interesting. But why would they do this ?
To reduce excess supply and stabilize price
We crush brand new cars here, pour away milk and pay farmers not to farm in some years
Every country has subsidy
FamilyRe: People Are Suffering. by Yankee101: 4:57pm On Jun 25, 2023
Sis sissy is not the problem
Here in the US we subsidize agriculture
I’m sure you’ve heard of farmers pouring maize into the ocean


The management of the economy is the problem
The price of constructing a KM of road in nigeria is one of the most expensive in the world. Yet the labor is among the lowest paid in the world. There was a reason subsidy was introduced in the first place. So Nigeria’s prboblem is not subsidy but mismanagement

No matter how we reason the matter, subsidy was not sustainable

If nigeria had removed the subsidy, you’re assuming the money would have been used for good

Oil has been sold for $100, Abacha loot recovered, loans taken

Have you seen the impact of all of that money?

nairalanda1:
Dang...a lot of people are suffering.

But the harsh truth is, at the end of the day, if the subsidy had not gone, if the government had kept subsides on petrol and power, well...

We would have been 'enjoying' and things would have been okay...until at the end of the day, in three years time, when the cost of subsidy is higher than our revenue, and we are borrowing money to make up the balance of subsidy payments, and borrowing for everything else...till IMF comes in and tells us that we can't pay for your addiction no more.

Then things would get really hard.

The way I see it, and I am not an APC fan, it is simple...we start taking hard decsions now, or we are forced to take harder decisions three years later, when IMF stops giving us loans.

One thing Nigerians need to wake up to is that the problem is not from who is in charge...although APC is a mess, it is the policy that those in charge , especially APC practice. We too dey rely on oil revenue...which cannot feed half our nation, talkless of one tenth. Meanwhile, looters and corrupt people come in and steal that tiny money

It is either we become more fiscally responsible, or we take more and more loans until we join Sri lanka and even Argentina at the bottom of the lake. And if you think you are suffering now...

God knows that if we removed subsidy in 2012, we won't be here by now.
