usetime: let's harp on this 3rd c thing again.
like its a guitar we should play. lets strumm its strings some more.

i don't know why universities have this 3rd rate system.
it's utterly detestable.
you can't do master's with it.
can't get a job with it
get lots of stigma with it
need to improve it.

but does anybody just wake up and go thru 4 / 5 years of school
always knowing right from year 2 that theirmaking 3rd c grades??

well in my case not so.

infact--- i believe the feedback system of schools are so poor
that some people got the poor grade by suprise.

on the other hand, if there's a grade lower than fail some body will
aspire for it. paradox - right.

but if you got it bad , third class , pass.

did you know you'd always be bagging it. no lie here.

In my school.. You will surely know if you will end up with a first class or 3rd class by the end of your first year...

This is based on your personal assessment of the course work, teachers, your intelligence quotient, your ability to cheat (and pass) and your weaknesses.

For me, as at my 2nd year semester, I already knew I was a 2nd class lower student for the course.. So I doubled my effort and always hung on the border line between 2nd class lower (50.0) and Second class upper (60.0)... I only managed to slip into the upper group in my final year second semester... In fact, I didn't believe it until I collected my certificate.

In my school, 1 student dies atleast once every two - three years from suicide and thats a guaranteed fact due to poor grades.. they are almost always in their 3rd year.. The last one I remember jumped from a 7 story building girls hostel.. Poor sucker..

Students who are forced to read a course they cant handle nor love normally are able to predict their graduating grade...

jeffizy:
Ŋφτ̲̅ applicable to this subject.

Why? Because its not Oyedepo or other mainstream pastors abi?

Dual Core: These tokens do their work but the hardware does not last. My first token didn't stay a year before i noticed a small crack on the screen which grew into a bigger crack and the ink spread accross the screen.

I got a replacement and few weeks later i saw a small patch of ink (no cracks) which has since been growing at the center. Its almost halfway through the screen but I can manage to guess the obscured numbers most times so I am still using it.

For my first token, I always had it with my keys. I guess that's how the crack came. The replacement token too, I had it with my keys until last week when I removed it.

GTB cannot give us a token and expect us to keep it at our homes and bring it out of the drawer only when we need to make a transaction.

I put my token with my keys because my keys are always with me and I could initiate any transfer anywhere! The token even has a provision for a key chain so it means the makers expect it to be affixed to a set of keys but these tokens are not rugged. They are not built for Nigerian mobility! Soon I will be replacing this second token and each replacement costs 3,500 Naira.

Meanwhile I have decided to find out some time to generate as many token numbers as I can in an hour and save in a secure location on my handheld devices, because that ink that's spreading may just give way one day and cover the whole screen and it may be at a crucial moment.

Maybe its not the Token thats the problem but you who is careless.. I have owned a GTbank token for over two years, a first bank token and a Diamond bank token (which is as big as a calculator) and they are all functioning just fine...

When next you get one, go meet your nearest welder to make you a metal pouch for it..


GTBank rocks..

I expect alot of goals... Scored by the Rwandans

cesil92: Pastor Fireman looks proud.. Why are you using "I". Why take the glory to yourself. I'm disappointed at you.
Who are you to heal? Why glorify yourself instead of God?
No one can heal except God, even the best and most anointed one cannot heal but God.

Read before you post.. I have explained already..

Rubbish..


Shut them down and see an Occupy Nigeria protest that will topple the incumbent regime...

These people think say Nigerians na mumu..

Play, with fuel, you see small fire... Play with UNILAG, we do small.. Now play with our BB signal and person must die..

The mother should also be arrested for gross negligence

One of those moves that makes me want to believe that GEJ is indeed a retarded person..

Why are they joking with Nigeria?!

I will readily offer him spiritual guidance technology to his missiles..

codedkay: He attributes his healing with conditions what a joke is this?

Why is it a Joke?!

JOHN 9: 6-7

When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay. And He said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.


This is Jesus healing somebody with a condition..

Do you so-called christians even read your bibles again?! Or are you just talking stupid because its fireman?!

And to think I wanted to fhuck her at some point.. WOW!!

We men are really an endangered specie... The monsters that dwell amongst us in Angel disguise are amazingly plenty.

The beginning of the end of Keshi

Onyenna:

the plural form is either stadia or stadiums.....they are both correct....

I KNOW now, feel like a douchebag...

CY09:
guy u get time to dey explain give dis person. whosoever have a problem with what he (Rochas) is doing should go n hang himself. person do bad dem go tok, person do good dem go still tok. na wa 4 una o!

Sounds foo'lish, but that is not the point now.....


WHAT DOES ROCHAS DO FOR MONEY?

401kk: Is your idea based on the premise that nigerians fear these deities more than the foreign ones?

Do you (to a spiritual/religious certainty) believe that these deities exist and work (like a supposed supernatural)?

Do you know how to they operate?

Its because the gods of our forefathers were known to be strict with justice..

In our rural villages, crimes are very low because of their presence..

If you doubt their potency, go slap a priest of Okija and see..

ondo_boi: arindin on rampage

Yoruba on rampage..

Olodostein:

Why don't you go out there and research it for yourself. But certainly, he is not into importing substandard products and other heinous things that affects innocent average Nigerians.

He is going a great job and putting money to good use for the benefit of the less privileged and future generation.

Epic fail..

If I asked the question, that means I have researched and found nothing.. A man cant be that wealthy and not have any visible source of income..


If you do not know the answer to a question, biko keep quiet..



[size=18pt]DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT ROCHAS DOES FOR A LIVING?! [/size] Is he a government contractor, importer, exporter, what company, where are they located, who do they employ or is he just another politician with so much money from doing nothing...

Onya ajuju adighi efu uzo.. I humbly await and answer..

ondo_boi: ...and what says you are in anyway better than him

And whats your business in our matter?! Tatafo

abhosts: Ngige broke the oath he made to a local god and nothing happened to him. Remember Okija?

What nonsense is this ballsack talking about?!

What do you know about the oath he took at Okija?!

Were you there or do you just like peddling rumors?!

ghostofsparta: If our sinators, legislooters, politicians, governors, ministers, commissioners, etc were made to swear whatever promises and manifestoes they meant before assuming office under the presence of our deities (Amadioha, Shango, Ogun, Shokpona) wouldn't their be 25hours of electricity supply and good roads and other social amenities. The argument of the possibility that the swearer can go back and offer something to the priests in order to revert the effect of the oath made can be easily resolved by televising the whole process on NTA or AIT where the politician/president/governor will be making such an oath with the provisio that in the event of him/her attempting to reverse the sworn oath...may 'so so and so' happen. That condition of the oath and the 'so, so and so' provisio would be an an agreed upon 'curse'. I know many would disagree with this harsh measure because of their glean to foreign religions brought onto them by European colonialists and Arab jihadists. Abrahamic religions that have rendered our society retrogressive ans decadent since 1914.

You are a wise man and only the gods could have given you such an insight...

It is high time we as Africans go back to our roots.. The foreign Gods have proven to be quite powerless towards stopping evil in the land.. It is high time we fashion our democracy such that we make all contestants swear by some of the most powerful deities in the land.. If you are not a believer, then you cant serve us.. The Jewish God and the Persian God have both failed us woefully..

May the gods of our forefathers continue to bestow such brilliant ideas in your head.

Its funny how Christians and believers in Christ will find it so easy to tongue lash Pastor Sign Fireman, yet curse at those who diss Oyedepo and Adeboye.. Like where is the sense in that?! Dr. Sign Fireman's healing of Pa Enebeli is no different from the way a Pastor Chris Oyakhilome would heal people at a Total Experience crusade... Nor from the way Oyedepo would have healed others at one of those his Winners Chapel annual Crusade!! Why then is Dr. Sign Fireman singled out for such attacks.. And the Dr. Fireman guy is at least humble enough to grant interviews to explain the circumstance around some of the controversies trailing him and his ministry.. Oyedepo and co are so arrogant that they do not believe that we are worthy of any explanation whatsoever, otherwise, where is Oyedepos interview to explain why he and his ministry have been interfering in a Police investigation into the missing girl in his church?! Where is Oyakhilomes explanation into why his security men are always attacking journalists that come around his church example is the British reporter that did the Sign Fireman expose'.


On the 'I' and not 'God', if the bible tells us according to the book of John 14, 10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.

Now if you believe this scripture, whenever he says I, it is the father living in him that is talking...


AND TO THINK THAT EVEN I WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE IN GOD KNOWS THIS..... I am highly disappointed in the hypocrisy of Christians towards Dr. Sign Fireman.. I consider him to be a fake and a fraud, just the same way I think Oyedepo, Adeboye, Kumuyi, Adefarasin, Ashimolowo and co are all fraudsters...

mikuz: you are the one who's suffering from poor education cos 'stadiums' is also same as 'stadia'

Really!!

Just researched it and found out my Primary school english teach (Miss Mercy) was a diseased a'nal b'itch for teaching me otherwise..

My bad hommes..

Kidnappers are not killers..

What even baffles me in his story was that they even took him into a town.. Normally, you are tied and left in a forrest.

When he ran and started shouting, there was o way he was gonna be shot when there were people around... At that point the kidnapper(s) is only thinking of his escape...

Except yo have been kidnapped by guys whose instructions are to kill you.. Most kidnapping always have a happy ending..

Mr Everest: why are u so dumb? I wz enjoying myself while goin 2ru reasonable articles until i stumbled on ur post, which i believe must hav assaulted all d enlightened folks on nairaland! Let me ask u a question, was Robinhood regarded as a villain or a hero? Pls learn 2 b appreciative 4 once n stop peddling ignorance in public.

Sorry!!

But whats Rochas' source of Income..

SImple question.. If you know please state it and stop running you diarrhea infested mouth..

SuyaEater: Even before south africa hosted the world cup they had great stadiums.

Even the national stadium in abuja is nothing to be proud of, just look at the pitch and the seats are far away from the action!


^^ Ndola stadium in zambia...look at that design!!!

We have poor taste in design..always boring cascade.

The pitches sux!!

Because of poor Education..

Imagine a graduate calling Stadia, staduims.. #Gbagaun

LIke I said in the other two threads ...


Kidnappings in the Niger Delta today has nothing to do with MEND.. 95% are closer home than you can imagine.. I am glad Obodo now knows better..

Unfortunately, the Nigerian Police didnt actually rescue him, but there is no denying that they set the atmosphere for his escape..

Lesson to all.. If you ever get kidnapped, try and be calm and rational.. You can only win when you place yourself on a higher mental and psychological plane than your captors, remember they are panicked and under stress of not being caught. Be nice, obedient and calculating.. There will always be that window of escape.. You need to be smart and calm to see it when it opens and exploit it..


There was a case of a colleagues wife that was kidnapped at the height of kidnapping in port-harcourt.. When they took her to the bush, she found out that it was a kidnapping ring as there were other women and young girls there as well. They were kept in the bush too (this is done by kidnappers so even if you get released, they cant tie your location to anyone).. Anyways, she said they were fed 1 pure water and 20naira biscuit a day.. FINISH.. She had been there for almost 5 days.. One evening, she just started to wriggle around and somehow freed herself from her restraints, took off her blind fold and saw that there was nobody watching over them.. She immediately got up, checked to see that the coast was clear and then proceeded to free the others.. The baffling part of her tale was that about 3 other women refused to be freed because they were scared that the Kidnappers were around and watching.. Anyways, she escapes with 2 other women, leaving those ones who refused behind.. They just stealthily yet hastily walked through the bush in no particular direction, she said around near morning, they came across people who were out picking snails that pointed them to the express road.. Once on the express road, they ran and flagged down every car that passed.. That was when a police van stopped and picked them up.. The police also tracked and rescued those left behind.. But the moral of the story is, there will be a chance for you to escape.. You need a calm clear mind to see and exploit it..

Goodluck Mr. Obodo.

ekwah:

I don't understand what your problem is. Rochas has been on this project for a long time now. what's bad if such good deeds are posted on nairaland for people to see. This same man gives a yearly sum of #50,000 naira cash to students who graduate from his free high school and are now in Universities. I know this because I benefited from it too. Stop hating.

What does Rochas Okorocha do for a living...


How does he make his money?!

kinguwem: University administrators and lecturers in Nigeria are lazy. The main source of funding in universities abroad is research grants. Students also benefit from scholarships. If governments, corporate bodies and NGOs are committed, the project is possible.

Once more.. The government already has so much on its plate to be concerned with Rochas' Free University scheme which is nothing more than an ill-thought out political move..

If he builds one, he should make sure he can finance it.. Government has no hand in Covenant, Igbinadion, Babcock and co...

And do you know what it takes for a university abroad to be able to attract sponsors of their project?! Do you think its as easy as getting sponsors for a Night of a thousand laughs?

afam4eva:
The school we have today is OK for you because you can pay. There are people that don't have the resources to pay for schooling. Those are the people that the Rochas foundation is targeting.

Thats why there are schemes like;

1. Scholarships

2. Grants..
