The comment below is the correct one. I live in Belgium and I can tell you that Audi is a par with Mercedes and BMW. VW Toureg is a luxury SUV and check the price of the new one to confirm. VW are built to last almost forever with mileage reaching 1Million KM. The issue with Nigeria is that the middle class and the poor who cannot afford luxury will try to justify why Toyota or Honda is the best butn it is pure bullshit. You can change cheap toyota parts 10 times while you will only change expensive Toureg part only once. At the end the Totoya will cost you more in maintenance. Please dont go to road side mechanics to fix your Mercedes, VW, Audi, BMW and the likes.

code9:


I own two VW Touareg T3 VR6 exec/lux models. one is 2011 and the other 2013. Coming from a person that has owned Toyota Highlander 2009 model, Mercedes E350, I can tell you that VW is the best car I have ever driven for my money. The off-road capability of the Touareg makes it a perfect case for our Naija bad roads. Just don't buy the model with Air suspensions, they can be very expensive to fix. People say the price of VW parts is expensive. Yes this is true. But on what basis are you comparing it to? This car is in Audi Q7, Porsche cayenne, and ML350 segment. The front headlamp of my TReg costs between 90 - 100k (one unit), the front headlamp of 2012 ML30, Audi Q7 and GLE cost even more.

These are german machines, please stop comparing them with Highlander. The TReg is over 6000 lbs weight. meaning its body was built with solid aluminum metal. It will drive for years without going out of shape. The highlander, even Opay motorcycle and disfigure it in a minor accident.

Earlier versions of Treg 04-09 models were known for electrical problems, but tech has come along way since then and this car is beautiful as hell.

Year on year, TReg and Audi are not cheap at all compared to Toyota. Also Nigerian market tends to make the toyota products over valued due to belief or reliability.

Every car. I repeat every car will die if not properly maintained. Touareg and Audi are luxury vehicles, and shouldn't be compared with Toyota.

2011 - 2014 Treg is between 8.5m - 13.5m
2011 - 2015 Audi Q7 is between 9m - 15m toks
2011 - 2014 Highlander is between - 6.5m - 12.5m

In terms of Fuel consumption, The Touareg TDi has the best mpg of any of the 3 mentioned SUV. The VR6 petrol cylinder isn't bad as well but its mpg is still as good the higlander at 19mpg vs 19.5mpgs. This is still very impressive considering the amount of torque and horseposer the Treg engine churns out.

My brother, if you have money, buy a good car and enjoy it. Treg and highlander are not mates. Treg is basically a 5 seater version of Q7 since they share the same parts and built from same factory line.

I can now see why Nigeria cannot move forward, A governor who remains the best in the entire country wants to be uprooted because he betrayed Adefarati and Agagu, Nigerians, so if a governor betrayed his party to work for the masses, it has become a bad thing?, We did not elect our governors to be loyal to his party, we voted for him to serve the people of the state, Since Mimiko is transforming Ondo state, how dare ACN say it wants to run Ondo state?, On what basis?, Some LP members are decamping to ACN not because they want to serve the masses but because they could not loot our monies as usual.This made them vow to fight Mimiko out of office, Cant Nigerians see for once?, Just because the looters are decamping doesnt mean the governor is not performiong, it only shows that we can operate a system whereby office holders cannot laden their pockets with our monies. Do you think they will decamp if they can steal our monies? or do you think they decamped to work for the masses?, well, Vote ACN and posterity will not forgive us, Vote ACN and see everthing crumble, I pity my people

otitokoro1:

I feel the issues about tithe in today's Christianity are "the definition" and "the application".

Nice comment Otitikoro, but the issue is about following the word of God because so many people could be led astray due to false doctrine and that's why we must be on guard. We must uphold the teachings of christ and not our pastor's or church's doctrines

Azibalua:

 
Abraham paid tithes to melchisedek before the law came into being,you have shown that christ came in the order of Melchizedek according to scriptures
Therefore tithing is a principle of god instituted before the law
When the law was abolished tithing was not because it existed far before the law

@Azibalua, the word of God is so simple and we christians decided to complicate it,

No 1. Did Abraham pay tithes from His income or his lands, fruits, crops or animals?, No. He gave from the spoils of war

No 2. open your bible to Hebrews 7: 8-10

8 In the one case, the tenth is collected by people who die; but in the other case, by him who is declared to be living. 9 One might even say that Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham, 10 because when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the body of his ancestor.

   If you want to defend your point based on the fact that abraham paid tithes, you can see from above especially in verse 9 that Abraham was compared to Levites who gave a tenth to the priest and not the children of Israelites,

  So Mr or Mrs Azabalua, are you a levite?, if yes, then you're not allowed any inheritance in the land because the Lord commmanded it.

No 3. If tithing predates the law as you have claimed, then start tithing as the Lord commanded and not as your pastor teaches. pay all you 3 tithes, 1 for the poor, 2 for the festival and 3 for the levitical priests.

No 4. If you or your pastor claim to be a priest, then collect your tithes from the levites because the tithes of the people of Israel does not go to the priest but to the Levites who will in turn give a tenth to the priest.

No 5. So, where did you get the idea that your 10% goes to the church or pastor?, i need bible verses,



My brother or sister, i know it can be very hard to know that all you have been taught all your life  about tithes and how it's given is not completely true. I was taught like you as well, but the bible says 1 Thess 5: 21 19 Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do not treat prophecies with contempt 21 but test them all; hold on to what is good, 22 reject every kind of evil,

It's just a pity that we no longer feed from the word of God in its raw form, we only feed from our local churches and pastors,

Hmmmm,  This is a very interesting topic and in my understanding, I don't think the new testament Christian are to pay tithes,

Please pray before you read this that God should open your eyes,  Everything here comes directly and purely from the scriptures wihtout mixing words and I pray that the Lord will Open our eyes of Understanding.


1,   Abraham was the first to give a tenth or tithe if we can call it that  ( Genesis 14:16-20)

17 After Abram returned from defeating Kedorlaomer and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom came out to meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).

18 Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High, 19 and he blessed Abram, saying,

   “Blessed be Abram by God Most High,
   Creator of heaven and earth.
20 And praise be to God Most High,
   who delivered your enemies into your hand.”

   Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything.

Lessong 1 . Abraham tithed the goods he recovered from the war and not his income, crops, animals or possessions to Melchizedek, 



2. God commanded that tithes should be given to the priests and the levites.  ( Numbers 18 :8-10,  14-20)

8 Then the LORD said to Aaron, “I myself have put you in charge of the offerings presented to me; all the holy offerings the Israelites give me I give to you and your sons as your portion, your perpetual share. 9 You are to have the part of the most holy offerings that is kept from the fire. From all the gifts they bring me as most holy offerings, whether grain or sin[a] or guilt offerings, that part belongs to you and your sons. 10 Eat it as something most holy; every male shall eat it. You must regard it as holy.



14 Everything in Israel that is devoted to the LORD is yours. 15 The first offspring of every womb, both human and animal, that is offered to the LORD is yours. But you must redeem every firstborn son and every firstborn male of unclean animals. 16 When they are a month old, you must redeem them at the redemption price set at five shekels[c] of silver, according to the sanctuary shekel, which weighs twenty gerahs.

17 “But you must not redeem the firstborn of a cow, a sheep or a goat; they are holy. Splash their blood against the altar and burn their fat as a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the LORD. 18 Their meat is to be yours, just as the breast of the wave offering and the right thigh are yours. 19 Whatever is set aside from the holy offerings the Israelites present to the LORD I give to you and your sons and daughters as your perpetual share. It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the LORD for both you and your offspring.”

20 The LORD said to Aaron, “You will have no inheritance in their land, nor will you have any share among them; I am your share and your inheritance among the Israelites.

These are what God promised the priest ( Levites from the house of Aaron) for their service to him.

     " You can see from the above that Aaron's households are the ones that are to be priests and not all the levites are priests. Other Levites that are not from           the household of Aaron are to be ministers. God promised Aarons family these gifts above because of their position as the priest and he said they shall have no    inheritance in the land"


Lets us look at what God promised to the ordinary levites who were not priest but ordinary ministers because the priests were to come from the house of Aaron alone   (Numbers 18: 21-29)

21 “I give to the Levites all the tithes in Israel as their inheritance in return for the work they do while serving at the tent of meeting. 22 From now on the Israelites must not go near the tent of meeting, or they will bear the consequences of their sin and will die. 23 It is the Levites who are to do the work at the tent of meeting and bear the responsibility for any offenses they commit against it. This is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. They will receive no inheritance among the Israelites. 24 Instead, I give to the Levites as their inheritance the tithes that the Israelites present as an offering to the LORD. That is why I said concerning them: ‘They will have no inheritance among the Israelites.’”

25 The LORD said to Moses, 26 “Speak to the Levites and say to them: ‘When you receive from the Israelites the tithe I give you as your inheritance, you must present a tenth of that tithe as the LORD’s offering. 27 Your offering will be reckoned to you as grain from the threshing floor or juice from the winepress. 28 In this way you also will present an offering to the LORD from all the tithes you receive from the Israelites. From these tithes you must give the LORD’s portion to Aaron the priest. 29 You must present as the LORD’s portion the best and holiest part of everything given to you.’


  " From the reading above , you can see that the tithes of israelites is for the ordinary  Levites and not Levites that are priests (Aaron's generation). But look at verse 28, the Lord commanded the Levites ( Ordinary Levites) to give a tenth or tithes from the tithes they received from the Israelites to Aaron the priest. So in conclusion, the priests did not collect tithes from the Israelites but from the Levites,

3. The Israelites did not bring their tithes to the storehouse of God, they were to be collected by the Levites. It was the Levites who were to bring a tenth or tithes  from the tithes they collected from the Israelites to the storehouse,  (Nehemiah 10: 36-39)

36 “As it is also written in the Law, we will bring the firstborn of our sons and of our cattle, of our herds and of our flocks to the house of our God, to the priests ministering there.

37 “Moreover, we will bring to the storerooms of the house of our God, to the priests, the first of our ground meal, of our grain offerings, of the fruit of all our trees and of our new wine and olive oil. And we will bring a tithe of our crops to the Levites, for it is the Levites who collect the tithes in all the towns where we work. 38 A priest descended from Aaron is to accompany the Levites when they receive the tithes, and the Levites are to bring a tenth of the tithes up to the house of our God, to the storerooms of the treasury. 39 The people of Israel, including the Levites, are to bring their contributions of grain, new wine and olive oil to the storerooms, where the articles for the sanctuary and for the ministering priests, the gatekeepers and the musicians are also kept.

  T[b]his is very interesting to me, in verse 37, Israelites only bring to the storeroom the first of their ground meal,  of grains offerings, of the fruits of all their trees and of their new wine and Olive oil but they were to give their tithes to the Levites. Take a close look at verse 38, it was the Levites that were commanded to bring a tenth of the tithes they collected to the storerooms of the house of God. [/b]

Lesson 2: From the above, you can see that

1. Tithes were only agricultural crops and animals and not money because they had money in those days and there were also people who worked as carpneters, lawyers, bricklayers, etc and we were not told they paid tithes

2. The tithes did not go to the priests, it went to the Levites. It was the Levites who in turn gave to the priest a tenth of the tithes they collected from the children of Israel.

3. It was the Levites who brought tithes to the storeroom of the house of God and not the Israelites ( Nehemiah  10: 38)

4. All these laws were given to Moses on mount Sinai to the Israelites (Leviticus 27). They are called the Mosaic laws



3. Why tithe is not money but only agricultural crops and animals. More proofs ( Leviticus 27: 30-34)

30 “‘A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD. 31 Whoever would redeem any of their tithe must add a fifth of the value to it. 32 Every tithe of the herd and flock—every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd’s rod—will be holy to the LORD. 33 No one may pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution. If anyone does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute become holy and cannot be redeemed.’”

34 These are the commands the LORD gave Moses at Mount Sinai for the Israelites.

  As you can see from above verse 30 says tithes of everything from the Land and it explains it as you can see from the word of God. Verse 31 discouraged people from selling the tithe and bringing the money but it says if you would redeem or sell, you will pay a penalty by adding a fifth of the value to it. Let us examine verse 33. it says you cannot change the animal you bring for tithe, it must be the tenth animal either good or bad. If you want to change it, both the tenth animal and the one you exchanged it with becomes your tithe and they cannot be redeemed i.e you cannot sell and bring the monetary value.


4. The Malachi 3:10-12 story.

10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the LORD Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it. 11 I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your fields will not drop their fruit before it is ripe,” says the LORD Almighty. 12 “Then all the nations will call you blessed, for yours will be a delightful land,” says the LORD Almighty.

This the book most new testament Christians use to condemn themselves.  Verse 10 says Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. from our readings(Neh 10:38 and Num 18:25-27), it's the levites that bring their tithes into the storehouse of God and not the Israelites. The tithes of the Israelites belong to Levites. So, the Malachi 3:10 is addressing the levites who refused to bring their tithes to the storehouse  of God under the levitical priesthood of the house of Aaron. These were all under the laws of Moses

                                                              [center]    Conclusions from the above[/center]

1. Priests do not collect tithes from the Israelites but from the Levites. Therefore, I don't think pastors have the right to collect tithes from church members

2. Tithes were agricultural products   and animals. People were also discouraged from paying their tithes with money by paying an extra fifth for agricultural products but for animals, they cannot be redeemed (Leviticus 27: 30-34).

3. Tithes does not only Go to the storehouse but the bible defines 3 different types of tithes. 1st, Tithes for the poor, levites, widows etc (Deuteronomy 26:12). 2nd, the feast tithe (Deuteronomy 14:22–23). 3rd was the Levitical tithe – Numbers 18:24. So, where did preachers get the 10% to the church from?

4. If you still feel you need to give tithe after reading all these, then give it the way the Lord commanded the Israelites according to the Mosiaic law. Give you tithes to levites( we can call them church cleaners, drivers, ushers, helpers and those who help the pastor in general). Then, the levites will then give a tenth or tithe  to the pastor. Don't forget the pastor is also to get the first fruits and all other gift offerings for sacrifices.

[center]Let me welcome you to the New Testament covenant and Giving[/center]

Galatians 3:2-14

2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard? 3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh?[a] 4 Have you experienced so much in vain—if it really was in vain? 5 So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard? 6 So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”[c]
7 Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham. 8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”[d] 9 So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

10 For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”[e] 11 Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because “the righteous will live by faith.”[f] 12 The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, it says, “The person who does these things will live by them.”[g] 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”[h] 14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.


  As you can see from verse 10, Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the book of Law and 11 says that the righteous shall live by faith and not laws. The laws  were rules given to Israelites before Jesus Christ died for US. verse 13 tells us that we are no longer under a curse because Jesus redeemed us from the curse of law by becoming a curse for us,  So, if you're scared of Malachi 3:10 despite the fact that it was the Levites that the bible spoke about, then I am sure you should be convinced by now that you are no longer under a curse.

Let us look at verse 28 of Galatians 3.

23 Before the coming of this faith,[j] we were held in custody under the law, locked up until the faith that was to come would be revealed. 24 So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith. 25 Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.

Read it carefully, verse 25 says Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the guardian (Law)  as verse 24 described the law as our Guardian before Jesus christ came, So belovers, you're no longer under the curse of the law including tithes, animal sacrifices and offerings,

[center]Are you not convinced yet?. ok read on[/center]



[b]Open your bible to hebrews 7: 1-4[/b]

1 This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him, 2 and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, the name Melchizedek means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” 3 Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, resembling the Son of God, he remains a priest forever.
4 Just think how great he was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder! 5 Now the law requires the descendants of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, from their fellow Israelites—even though they also are descended from Abraham.

  Looking at verse 1, it described how Abraham gave a tenth to Melchizedek from the spoils of war as also noted in ( Genesis 14:16-20)
Now examine verse 5 closely. It says,  now the law( which is the law of Moses) requires the descendants of Levi who are priests to collect tenth from the people. This was a commandment laid down by God under the levitical priesthood.

Now let's go to verse 11-16. you can read it to the end in your bible.

11 If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood—and indeed the law given to the people established that priesthood—why was there still need for another priest to come, one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron? 12 For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed also. 13 He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, and no one from that tribe has ever served at the altar. 14 For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests. 15 And what we have said is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears, 16 one who has become a priest not on the basis of a regulation as to his ancestry but on the basis of the power of an indestructible life.

  reading verse 12, For when the Priesthood is changed, the law must be changed also. There fellow Christians, we are under the priesthood of our Lord Jesus Christ one in the Order of Melchizedek and not the levitical in the order of Aaron. So, it baffles when Christians are subjected to the levitical priesthood in order to pay tithes when the bible clearly tells us that we are under a new and a better priesthood which is not based on law but on faith.




[center]How are Christians to give[/center]

Infact there are so many places the apostles and christ spoke about giving. we were to give generously. let's take a look at some examples.

2 Cor 9:7, Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
   Tithe was under the law and it was compulsory, but we are to give not reluctantly or under compulsion

Matthew 25:31-46,  This tells us that giving is a very important aspect of our chrisitian life .Make sure you read this.Most christians think giving to church means giving to God, please read your bible and don't just listen to your pastors.  Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path"
Psalm 119:105

Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

Proverbs 19:17  “He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done.”

James 1:27  “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

1 cor 9: 11  If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap a material harvest from you? 12 If others have this right of support from you, shouldn’t we have it all the more?   But we did not use this right. On the contrary, we put up with anything rather than hinder the gospel of Christ.  13 Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple get their food from the temple, and that those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar? 14 In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel.

Romans 12 : 13 Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.



[center]In conclusion[/center]

1. Jesus or the Apostles never commanded or spoke abou tithes in the New testament

2. We are under the priesthood of Jesus and not the levitical priesthood where people lived by laws

3. We are no more under the law but under grace and christ death took our curse away.

4. I am still worried as to where our bible believing churches got the doctrine of tithes from.

5. If you really believe in tithing, then give it as the Lord as commanded in the old testament so that you will not be guilty of the law

6. Some may say but i give tithe and God blesses me. My answer is that the are only operating under the natural law of giving. If you give, you will receive either you're a christian, muslim or a pagan,

[center]So, Fellow New testament christian, stop TITHING and start GIVING[/center]

Awolowo was never a president .though he was the best strategist and leader Nigeria has ever produced. He was only able to use his intellectualism in the western region.
I know the ibo's hate him because he stopped the Biafra , sorry about that but he did the right thing

Best regime so far was buhari Idiagbon, all others were jokers, worst were sagari, babangida, abacha and Musa

I think It's hightime some Nigerians stopped being sentimental and be objective and rational in their expressions. What is wrong  with allowing 15 years old automobiles into a country where the minimum wage is less than 100 dollars and where there is no single automobile manufacturing plant? In my view, there is absolutely nothing wrong.

Even in developed countries,cars over 60 years (Vintage) are still bought and used  but the governements have proper measure such as the MOT tests to determine whether a car is road worthy or not . This same Test is available in Nigeria but it is already bastardised and abused. You only need 2 thousand Naira and a phone call to get your MOT result prepared and handed over to you by testing centres.

So, It is proper measures  to check the road worthiness of automobiles that should be employed and not deny the average poor Nigerian from possessing a car. An average Nigerian cannot boast of 50,000 Naira monthly salary and some people are here talking about placing a ban on 15 years old automobile.

As for me, this is a very rational step by this administration, when Nigeria as a country can boast of 5 to 6 automobile assembly plant and a constant source of Electricity supply, then we can  take further measures to stopping importation of cars that are not road worth.

The problem with most Nigerians is that we deceive ourselves a lot and until we face the reality, development will be far from our nation, This country is one of the poorest countries in the world based on per capita income and people are talking about stopping importation of what we don't produce. Common tooth pick, we cannot produce and even the ones produced break off as u pick your tooth.

Please Nigerians, Let us call a spade a spade, This country is very poor for now.God help us,

Please, what is parsley called in yoruba, or in any other Nigerian language? Thanks

Does anyone have an idea of how much the new e passport costs, in Nigeria.

I have been hearing series of prices from 20,000 to 25,000 naira, If this is actually true, then it's a shame
on the Federal governement and the president himself.

How can passport offices issue at different prices in a country that promises 7 point agenda,
I wonder what faith we Nigerians still have in that country.

If the federal government can not tackle obvious corruption like this, then why should people
believe in the president's promises of making the Nigerian economy one of the largest in the world.

It's so sad that I'm from Nigeria if this things still happen and the innocent people are left with no choice.

To be honest, i can't see any light at the end of the tunnel except i want to tell myself some white lies,

God help us cos the future is soooooooooooo dark

Well Tm lewin shirts cost £25 in London, and they don't have any branch or rep in nigeria or outside,

a friend told me today that they've got a tm shop in silverbird galleria, am sorry to dissapoint you that they don't represent TM. Probably it's just an individual that imports from London.

Well, any Tm shirt less than 6,000 is most likely to be fake because the cost of TM shirt in wholesale is about 5,000 naira by the time you add shipping cost, you'll be getting at almost 6,000.

anyways there're better London designers so, i don't know why guys in naija are TM crazy.

check out, paul smith, burberry, abercrombie and fitch, charles tyrwhitt, hugo boss, these are for the biggest boys,

Why the argument about HND and BSC. ?

Okay, someone should tell me why BSC is better. It's only uneducated fellows that still think that way.

Gone are those days when polys are noted for technical aspect only.

Today, polys are the same as unis. Employers and recruiting firms don't conduct separate exam for poly and uni graduates.

The same exams and interviews are being conducted for HND and BSC holders seeking for jobs, why should there be descrimination again?

HND is 5 years including the one year IT, Bsc is less or thesame (5 years)  in  case of engineering and some few courses.

Who said nigerian universities do research? if you think they do, you're only deceiving yourself. Just visit any site or universities sites abroad and see for yourself what research is all about.

So the descrimination thing should end. Tests conducted by banks and other firms clearly show that BSC holders don't perform better than HND holders.

In nigeria, we don't have engineers we only have technicians. what we do is to repair and construct manual equipments which the HND graduates are the best at.

The BSC holders get jobs in firms and get trained as a technicians also.

If you don't believe how many computer engineers have built a simple hard-disk or floppy drive in Nigeria? Don't BSC holders go out their to get trained as techincians at street computer and technical colleges?

so the issue of BSC and HND shouldn't border any well focused Nigerian. What you can do is what matters in life.

Remember BSC or HND doesn't  make one a great leader. Only thinking people become great leaders, achievers and innovators.

Thank you
