Good job
How much do you offer this teaching and how long does it takes?

It's a good one though but NNPC should have stakes in every petroleum refineries in the country. They should sell out part of the ones existing and keep like 25%

What should I do

I am getting scared
.
I wanna move out

Don't be scared, go play a Yoruba song on the low key to tell them iyalaya won telling them you no send them. Pepper them all the way, in a matter of time they will become your friend when they realize you are way beyond the racist game they are playing

Dating back to our secondary school, we were introduced to Keynesian theory of Economics, most importantly the theory of micro and macro economics.
His economic theory that emerged in 1921 might seem to be of great benefit in that era of great depression but careful observations has proved that it has caused more harms than good.

His introduction of other theories like debt spending has created a hell of economic monsters who have directly and indirectly plunge many into poverty most especially in third world nations.

The painful part is that the debts are not for capital investments but for spending. And when they talk about investment in things like infrastructures, history has proved that any nation that borrow to develop it's economy without focus on Human Capital Development and Industrialization of its local economies will plunge the people to greater poverty

Impossible except we want to become poorer.

AfroKnight:
The good ones are not obvious. Many girls are in church because they are hiding a terrible past or because their conscience is seared and they don’t care that they’re living conflicting lives.

Not always true, when you meet the good ones you will know. I have met many of them,they are not perfect but they can be very homely because of the way they were brought up by their parents

AfroKnight:


E be like say church girls never show you something.

There are good ones

Obierika:
That's a terrible idea, most of the ones there are pretenders!

How sure are you that there are no pretenders here. If you have a good pastor he should be able to help out

Dear Nairalanders,
I have an issue that has been on my mind for weeks now. My fiancé and I have been dating for over three years. I love him and he loves me too. We are physically attracted to each other. We’re both catholic but since I graduated, during my service year I gave my life to Christ, got saved and left the Catholic Church. So I’ve been a Pentecostal Christian since then. He on the other hand is still catholic. I subtly try to nudge him to consider getting saved, i.e acknowledging Christ as lord and savior and becoming born again but he is content with his laidback Christian life.

Earlier this year, he asked to meet my parents and I let him. My parents like him especially because my younger sis is married and they have been waiting for me too. They’re glad I’ve someone. However, after the introduction,I regret it. I’m now certain that he’s not the one. I think about my spiritual life and how lukewarm he is about the things of God, I think about kids and how we’ll raise the, with such differing views about God and I’m discouraged. I feel like I’m settling because he checks all the boxes on the checklist of physical attributes. Another mistake I made is, I didn’t pray about this decision and that worries me because anything that involves him,I just act with pausing to ask God, but I always ask God about other aspects of my life. So it’s like my associating with him is a minus for my spiritual life and that’s a huge cause for concern.

At this point, I want to tell my parents I am not convinced it’s him but I’m afraid of the disappointment this will cause. *sigh* I’ll appreciate your thoughts, comments, criticisms...

Please don't joke with marriage oh it can make or mar you. I have spoken with numbers of elderly women and I realized that they are just enduring their marriage.
Any signs that seems to give you red alert is telling you be warned, Go to God and ask for his mercies concerning him and pray that God send him those that will lead him to the Christ experience.
Then meet him, and share your fear with him.
Try and do your best not to pressurize him.
Above all get to know from God if he actually is his will for you. Most importantly if you see any form of dysfunctionality in him that can affect your future look carefully again

Popular Islamic cleric, Sheik Ahmad Gumi, says it is unfair to compare the activities of criminal herdsmen with those of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), IgbereTV reports.

According to Gumi, the crimes committed by IPOB members outweigh those committed by bandits.

According to Gumi, IPOB members kill security agents while herdsmen do not kill but only kidnap children to make money. He said this when he appeared on Arise TV today June 23.

“IPOB is attacking the police, the army, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and other government institutions; killing our men in service.

And the herdsmen are kidnapping children not to kill them but to get money; so how can you compare somebody who is killing our gallant men in the armed forces directly to somebody who is kidnapping children to make money and not to kill them. Look, we need some fairness in what we are doing” he said

Sheik Gumi has consistently made a case for bandits in the country. He has called for amnesty for the bandits who have overtime carried out the abduction of students from different parts of the country.

Watch a video of him speaking below.

WHAT BUHARI PRESIDENCY MEANS

By Kayode Samuel

(Written on Vanguard, March 7, 2003)

As the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) formally flags off its presidential campaign tomorrow, this seems an appropriate time to take another look at the party and its candidate, Major General Muhammadu Buhari. The reasons for paying close attention to the party and its flag-bearer are obvious enough. ANPP is ranked Number Two among the country’s thirty political parties. If it were to get its sums right, nothing stops it from becoming Number One. In terms of national spread, if for very little else, the party is the leading contender for the power now being held by the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Concomitantly, the ANPP presidential candidate who, like the incumbent, is a former military head of state, is seen as the one most likely to give President Olusegun Obasanjo stiff competition at the April polls. Indeed, for the knowledgeable and the hoi polloi alike, the presidential race has already been narrowed down to an Obasanjo-Buhari square-off, with the other candidates featuring as no more than also-rans or comic relief – as the case may be.

Although the man has not done much yet by way of mounting the rostrum directly, the outlines of Buhari’s campaign manifesto are clear enough. It is becoming crystal clear what he intends to do with the power that he now seeks via the ANPP presidential ticket. The emerging temper of the Buhari campaign is a very churlish one indeed – not unlike the candidate himself. Its defining strategy is to deepen the country’s division as a ploy for winning power. Why this should be considered a viable strategy for winning the presidency can only become evident in the fullness of time. But it is becoming increasingly clear that General Buhari has plans for Nigeria that can only bring the country to grief.

The Yoruba have a saying that a man who is accused of being a thief should not be found dancing with a baby goat. The logic being that the man could be tempted to do a disappearing act with the baby goat and thus confirm people’s suspicions of him. Since he emerged as the ANPP candidate at the party’s abracadabra convention, General Buhari has done everything possible to confirm the worst fears of everyone who thought that his candidacy was bad news for the unity and progress of Nigeria. At every turn, he has raised the stakes in a way that presents him as being an agent of malevolent vested interests, who are desperate to visit chaos on the land by using his candidature as a major plank for starting another Civil War. Intimations of this malevolence have been legion, but the clearest indication yet has come via the interview General Buhari granted the Voice of America Hausa service last week.

In the interview, Buhari reportedly called on politicians from the northern part of the country to mobilize against the national identity card scheme since, according to him, the scheme is nothing but a ploy to put the north at a disadvantage. Buhari revealed that he decided to sabotage the scheme during his earlier tenure as military head of state because he saw it as a means of marginalizing the northern part of the country by presenting it as having a low population. In his thinking, the identity card scheme would not only depopulate the north, it would also deny millions of northerners in the rural areas of their citizenship since many rural dwellers in the north did not understand its importance. Buhari then warned that if northern politicians do not oppose the scheme, then they would have betrayed the confidence that their people reposed in them.

Three issues immediately arise from this thingly veiled attempt to blackmail northern politicians. First, that there is anxiety in the quarters that Buhari represents that the age-long phenomenon of inflated population figures in some parts of the country is about to be exposed by the identity card scheme. Second, that Buhari thinks that the progress of the country, which the identity card represents, must be subjected to the irrationality of perpetuating the myth that some parts of the country have more population than logic or acute observation can sustain. Third, that Buhari believes that the rural people of the north, whom he says are ignorant, do not deserve to be helped out of this ignorance through a policy that can only make their lives better.

It is noteworthy that the national identity card scheme was conceived twenty-four years ago with the primary aim of promoting development and security. People must be alarmed that a man like Buhari, who once ruled Nigeria, and who now wants to be president again, would take such a brazenly sectional stance by fostering divisions on a policy whose usefulness was so self-evident. But that is really quite in character with Buhari. And this must make us ponder the implications of a Buhari presidency for the country.

In the Hegelian dialectic of thesis and anti-thesis, a Buhari presidency can only be the anti-thesis of President Obasanjo’s reform agenda. We now have a presidential contest that pits a reform agenda against a revenge agenda. Northern hawks are quick to dress Buhari up in the toga of a northern avenger of the perceived insolence and temerity of a president from the south who has dared to attempt to create a level playing field for all Nigerians. In their view, this is an unpardonable crime as it runs against the grain of their conventional wisdom that other Nigerians are not and must not be equal to them.

The upshot of this mindset is that a Buhari presidency will seek to restore the status quo ante by promoting the re-enslavement of those historically oppressed people that the Obasanjo government has now given a voice – especially in the Middle Belt and the South-south zone. But such retrogression as Buhari seeks to foist can only invite its own nemesis, as it is bound to be resisted with such determination that leads the country into war and disintegration.

Buhari is an unreconstructed fascist who seeks to impose a hegemonic theocracy on a secular republic. He is a self-proclaimed puritan who nonetheless has a knack for being associated with missing public monies. With his recent statements, Buhari has shown that he will be a sectional leader in the Abacha mold, and would not mind playing the regional or sectional card to get power – even if it means taking the country to the precipice. The people he surrounds himself with these days already foster a sense of déjà vu about the Abacha era – Jerry Useni, Bashir Magashi, Don Etiebet, Sule Hamma, Ali Modu Sheriff, Victor Malu, Attahiru Bafarawa, to mention a few.

In appraising Buhari, the symbolism of the Oputa Commission should not be lost on us. Out of power, Buhari has elected to show such disdain for due process, considering it beneath him to appear before a duly constituted panel set up to promote national reconciliation. What will such a man do when he returns to power? In 1984, his revenge agenda was to jail people as a way of intimidating the country into quiescence about the NNPC’s money that went missing while he presided over that agency. Today, twenty years later, his revenge agenda could be to stop people from raising questions about what happened to 25 billion naira while he was in charge at the PTF!

Oga, that site is not a scam. Try enrolling and see if it is. And besides it requires nothing

It seems to be designed as one created to Phish people's information no information just login

Valentina1987:
The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) recently released the estimated world population. Nigeria's population, according to its estimation, will hit 211.4 million by the end of 2021, a sharp rise by 69 million from 142.5 million recorded in the 2006 head-count. With an unemployment rate of 32.5 percent projected for 2021, and no hope of stimulating productivity for economic growth, this growing population figure does not give one a reason to be cheerful.
Apart from the estimated figure generated by the UNFPA, other indicators about the country's population are not encouraging. For instance, the use of contraceptives by women all over the country is put at 17 percent. That of Ghana is about 30 percent. This means our population growth is not under control. If individuals fail to use contraceptives to ensure child spacing, government may take the blame for it. The UNFPA report states specifically that in Nigeria, there are "no laws and regulations that guarantee access to sexual and reproductive healthcare, information and education... "That is to say there is no population policy in Nigeria; and if there is one, such a policy is ineffective or never implemented.
Population policy is defined in Encyclopaedia.com as "deliberately constructed or modified institutional arrangements and/or specific programmes through which governments influence, directly or indirectly, demographic change." It offers a way for any country to be prepared and respond to the current and future needs of its citizens. Many developed societies have population policies. They may not pursue them aggressively like China would do, but with access to sexual and reproductive healthcare, information and education, citizens of developed societies determine or control the number of children they bring into this world. Unfortunately, in Nigeria, many state governments do not make budgetary provisions for family planning, for instance. Rather, they absolutely depend on interventions by donor agencies which may not be adequate. Worse still, many states fail to provide their counterpart fund in donor-funded interventions, making it impossible to deepen and sustain such funded projects.
At the rate the country's population is growing, it could attain the predicted 450 million by year 2050, and become the third largest population in the world, after China and India. Economists have argued that high population could be an advantage because it means high demand for goods and services. But Nigeria's experience is in the reverse, with poor human capital development that has made graduates to be unemployable, and low industrial production that has relegated the country to a net importer of consumer goods. Under this atmosphere, the burgeoning youth population has produced beggars, social deviants, bandits, fraudsters, and thugs who constitute low-hanging militia for politicians and dubious political leaders. High population becomes an advantage if the population is well-educated and involved in the production of capital and consumer goods, not just for local consumption, but also for export. China is a classical example of a nation that has taken advantage of its population for economic growth.
We call on the federal and state governments to rise from their complacency about the uncontrolled population growth and put in place mechanisms for evading the predicted doom. A Nigerian proverb says, it is only a goat that grazes unperturbedly even when faced with certain death by slaughter. Nigerians must embrace child spacing and every technique and products that would enhance it to prevent the tragedy of unmanageable population in the near future. Women should be made to play an active role in the timing and number of children they would bring into this world. Religious leaders, who influence matrimonial and family disposition and decisions in this respect, should play an integral role in popularising population control measures by government.
On its part, government should ensure a genuine, credible and transparent population census takes place in Nigeria, instead of depending and making policy decisions on the estimated 2.6 percent annual growth. Also, government must put in place fiscal and monetary policies necessary to stimulate the economy, enhance productivity, and create employment for the population. The future is not a far distance away; it is here with us with its associated troubles.
We must tackle this unrestrained population growth immediately.

It's all scam, we need to increase our population and take charge of our resources, the population is not the problem of Nigeria it is wrong ideologies and bad governance

All my life, I thought AA, AS and SS are the only types of genotype we have, I was shocked to learn that there are 2 more, AC and CC. Can doctors and other medical professionals in the house educate us on this please

google and YouTube should help you better

valentineuwakwe:
My Friend, pls KEEP QUITE!
who told you Hausa are the majority in Nigeria? Is it the cook up or inflated census their British master handed over to us. Why are the fulanis not group and numbered separately?
See, the yorubas are the largest followed by the Igbos, so stop this 1960 mentality of yours. Ask any sincere chairman of National census board, they will tel you the truth.why was festus odumegwu, the brewery man removed as the census board chairman? He saw many anomlities n wsnted to tell the world the truth.

Anyway, continue to ride in northern sentiment!

The Fulanis are 6% there are tribes more populous than them in the north than they do.
