Romance / Re: My Boyfriend Stopped Calling And Picking My Calls by efiembo: 9:14am On Jan 13, 2021
Habby222:
Advice needed pls.

I've been with this guy for close to four years now and its not really been a perfect relationship. Lots of ups and downs due to what I can term insecurity. At some point we're cool and the next minute issues arises just like every other relationship.

He's a good guy to some extent as he showers me with love ( my thoughts)and a lot of times he gives gifts not money though. I've had to give financial assistance to him alot of times, he returns some if he deemed it necessary and doesn't return if he so wishes. I've never complained about this and still always willing to help him out whenever he is in need. Pls note that we're both financially ok.

This gesture of me offering him financial help stopped when I realise he doesn't do same to me. I've had to test him on serval occasions that I needed financial help and he has never for once helped out on those request despite knowing he has. I never needed the money though, I made those request to know if I could actually fall back to him if I'm in need.

Last year October, I told him about my plans of getting a new car as I got tired of the one I was using. Pls note that I did not request him to buy for me neither did I ask for any support whatsoever. I contacted my source in the US with my budget and spec, was able to find one in a short time and I paid for it. All of this moves were known to him. By December, the car arrived and cleared accordingly with every expenses incurred payed by me. He gave some moral support though.

A week after getting the car, he called me one morning and started apologising for not supporting financially in getting the car which I told him I had no issues with that. I told him I wasn't expecting more than moral support from him since I could afford getting the car on my own. I also made him realise he doesn't owe me no apology as I wasn't t his responsibility since we weren't married and that even if we were married, ill always want to get my stuffs myself as long as I can afford it. The next I heard was him ranting on phone that he doesn't expect less from me, said I'm a proud and that he knew I wasn't going to be a good wife. He said he has always known I wasn't going to be a submissive wife and a whole lot of other derogatory words despite not having issues whatsoever prior to that time. I ended the call as I was so surprised he could say those mean words to me.

All through that day he didn't call back and I did not as well cos I was expecting him to realise I was hurt by his actions. A week pass and still no call from him so I decided to call him and he didn't pick. I'd sent a lot of of messages to him and has not replied to any. I'd gone to his house to check up on him and not met him too. Its been three weeks now and we haven't spoken and seen despite all of my effort to talk to him and or see.

Guys please I'm confused and do not know how to handle the issue. Pls advice.

He is obviously married and you had been an.option.

Please move on my dear, we guys can always reach out especially after you have sent numerous messages.
Take care and start your year Strong and Bold.
Romance / Re: My Girl Replied Her Ex Boyfriend's Compliments Of The Season. Now She's Begging by efiembo: 9:13am On Dec 21, 2020
Icedplane:
A girl that I was dating, took her to my parents and even met her people chatted with her ex who ditched her and married another girl. The other girl died and this ex wants her back.

She said if she see's someone else she would move ahead but if not she may consider him back. All these happened like 4 months before I met her.

Now I have introduced her to all my family and even met some of her family.

Sent her mum money for Christmas, she still has the guts to reply the guys compliment of the season even after I warned her months back and asked her to block the guy which she did.

What pains me was the new phone I bought for her was what she used.

Now she's begging my mum to beg me.
Am done

Car Talk / Re: How To Get Your Car Out Of Mud In Nigeria by efiembo: 8:44pm On Dec 14, 2020
Naijautonews:
Being stuck in mud can be a nightmare! That is why it's wise that you know how to get your car out of mud to continue with your journey! Find out more here!
One of the worst things that can happen to a driver during the rainy season or when driving off-road is to have your car stuck in mud. Not only will your car get dirty but you'll be disorganized and trying to get out might damage some components of your vehicle.

You might misjudge how deep the muddy path is or didn't even know there was anything like that there. There's no need to dwell on how you got into the mud but rather how to get out of it. This article by Naijauto is meant to give you a thorough guide on how to get your car out of mud, so your car doesn't sink deeper and you don't end up spending the entire on one spot while making little or no progress.


With the right tools, you can get your car out of mud even with no assistance

1. Try driving backward
Once you are driving forward and your car gets stuck, don't keep trying to accelerate further. It only makes your wheels sink deeper. Let's not forget that you will keep splashing mud all over the doors, trunk, bonnet, windows, and engine of the vehicle. Therefore, what you should do immediately you notice your car can't move forward in to try reversing.

Do not turn off the engine. Simply place your gear on R and drive backwards. Perhaps the road leading to the mud is better than the one leading out of it. Hence driving in reverse should work. If you're able to move backwards for a bit and get stuck again, try forging forward at a faster acceleration. You'll likely get out of the mud and head on with your journey.

2. Provide traction for your wheels
The reason your car stays stuck is that there's no traction between the wheels and the road you're on. You need to provide some traction then.

There are gigantic thick metal wires that are sold online. You can buy those and keep in your trunk for times when you get stuck. When you tie the wire through the wheels and tyre, it creates some sort of bump when that area rotates and touches the ground. This makes your car move forward or backwards one way or the other.


Back the car up, hopefully, you undo getting stuck in mud

Other materials you can use for traction are you car floor mats, thick leaves (not grasses please), gravels or small stones and blankets. What you do is to place them close to the tyre, underneath, so your wheels can roll over them. They might get slightly sunk in the mud, but will provide traction for you to get out of that spot. If you can find a lot of these materials, you can create a path for your vehicle to drive on. When safe, you can always go back to get your mats and clean them.

3. Get people to push it for you
When you have tried the first DIY method and it doesn't work or you don't get the materials for the second, it's time to use some manpower. If you're lucky enough to be driving with some friends, they can all come out to push the vehicle backwards or forward - depending on which path gives you more traction. If you don't have passengers with you, find locals around that can help.

First of all, try to make the car lighter. There's actually a possibility you got stuck due to the weight of the car. A sedan weighs about 1,800 kg on an average while an SUV weighs about 3,000 kg. Imagine driving that with bags of rice, spare tyre, tools and even humans. It adds close to another thousand kilograms. That's why emptying the car helps. Afterwards, you can get in and have them push towards the direction with better traction. This is usually the most common way to get a car out of mud in Nigeria.


The car getting stuck is just the responsibility of all the occupants

4. Get it towed out
This is pretty much the last resort. Nigerians feel a car only gets towed when it's been involved in an accident. Well, that shouldn't always be the case. When your car is stuck in mud, you can request for a towing van to come to get it out for you. There are usually areas in the front and rear of your vehicle where they can attach their towing chain and pull your car out.

However, you will need to put your car on neutral gear and control it while it's been towed. It's really not rocket science. Simply reduce the weight as well. Alternatively, you can get another vehicle to help you tow it out. If you have a thick and strong belt or chain, you can attach it to both tyres and that should work. With all these tips on how to get your car out of mud, you should be calm when it happens as you already have the best tricks at your fingertips. However, avoid muddy areas and drive carefully when in a wet area.

LAW SCHOOL FOR OPEN UNIVERSITY: WHY NIGERIA CAN’T BE DIFFERENT
Abdulrazaq O Hamzat

Going by history, Law school study by correspondence has existed in the United States since 1890 when Sprague Correspondence School of Law (which eventually merged with Blackstone Institute, and later was known as Blackstone School of Law) was established by William C. Sprague in Detroit, Michigan.Among the school’s early graduates was Antoinette D. Leach, early Sprague Law Correspondence Law School graduate and first woman attorney in Indiana, who in 1893 became the first woman admitted by the Indiana Supreme Court to practice law in Indiana. The school and others (including American Correspondence School of Law of Chicago; Columbian Correspondence College of Law in Washington D.C.; New York Correspondence School of Law in New York; and others) were innovative for the time in providing many poor, working-class, women, and ethnic minorities educational opportunities. Among the La Salle Extension University graduates who went on to make contributions in law and politics are governors Harold J. Arthur and Eurith D. Rivers, Senator Craig L. Thomas, U.S. Representatives John S. Gibson and William T. Granahan, and African-American leaders Arthur Fletcher, Jessie M. Rattley, and Gertrude Rush.
For years, many have been wondering why the impact of education is not being felt in Nigeria. It was observed that, as the country continue to produce more professors, more doctors, more graduates etc, so the level of educational impact is declining. This according to observer is not unconnected to our attitude towards learning.
It is my view that, many Nigerians including those in authority confine themselves to the past, failing to see reason in what is obtainable in the present. As other countries including those who gave us our present system continue to embrace change and moving along with it, we continue to wallow in ignorance, holding unto the non-existing standard while depriving our citizens the benefit of the modern opportunities.
While some have blame it on lack of proper education, others blame it on the inability of individuals to make adequate use of their acquired education.
Being from the Open University myself, I have no doubt what soever that the quality of learning taking place in this institution far supersede that of many conventional universities, but it was a surprise to read that the law graduates of this first of its kind University are being denied a chance at the Nigerian law school without any justifiable reason.
Let’s face fact, the non-recognition of Open University law degree is another example of how education has failed once again, to make effect even among those in legal authority.
The policy of the Council of Legal Education and the Body of Benchers, which are the statutory bodies vested with the regulation of training and admission of aspirants to the Nigerian Bar, is that the study of Law must be undertaken on a full-time basis in recognized and accredited institutions. To them, only through such process can law be adequately learned.
But come to think of it, is the Nigerian legal system not tailored after the British legal system, just as the Nigerian Open University was after the British Open University? So, if the British Open University can offer law degree through correspondence and is well recognized, why should the custodian of legal practice in Nigeria blindly assume that such cannot be replicated in Nigeria? Or are we now saying the Nigerian legal standard is of greater standard to the British legal standard?
If our government and educators continue to make references to best practice across the world, why should they ignorantly reject the best practices of Open University as seen across the world?
Here, we know that the CLE none-recognition of NOUN is as a result of politics. However, what the CLE should tell us openly is that they want to restrict the number of lawyers in Nigeria because as far as we are concerned, NOUN posses all requirement if not more. I challenge the CLE to evaluate their performances through NLS and compare it with other university students.
It was obvious that those against noun students admission into NLS are for their selfish interest/sentiment.
For the records, the law degree of Open university in United kingdom is the most popular law degree in in that country with over 6000 students. Upon completion, they are 100% guaranteed acceptance in their law school and to practice as lawyers.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
In the United States, many state institutions offer law degree through this process and they are well recognized. One of the state that offers an ability to practice law via successful completion of a mandated 4 years of law school through either a correspondence or online law school is California. Once a law student has successfully completed his first year of law school, Business and Professions Code section 6060 requires the student to take and pass the First Year Law Student Examination, commonly known as the "BABY BAR," within the first three attempts of becoming eligible.
GERMANY
Distance legal education in Germany is available through FernUniversität Hagen, a public university similar to the British Open University. The graduates receive LLB or LLM degrees.
CHINA
Distance legal education in China is available through Beijing Foreign Studies University through a partnership with Spirit of Law School of Law.
SOUTH AFRICA
Even in South Africa, Distance legal education is an acceptable method to become a lawyer in South Africa, and is available through the University of South Africa (UNISA).
UNITED KINGDOM
Distance legal education in the United Kingdom is accepted by the Law Society of England and Wales as a qualifying law degree and one of the possible ways to become a solicitor or a barrister.
In several other countries influenced by the British legal heritage, legal education can be obtained through distance education, including India, Indonesia, Australia etc.
I am of the view that, if the entire world is moving forward by catching up with modern practices, Nigeria shouldn’t be left behind. Not recognizing Open University on the basis of non-existing barrier will hurt our dear nation and rob it of the gains of the 21st century. W must be concerned with the nations progress, not our selfish desire.
In Present day, Northwestern California University School of Law is the oldest existing correspondence law school in the United States. It was founded in 1982 and began presenting its correspondence program entirely online in 2002. It is the first online law school to offer Internet based and faculty led videoconferencing sessions for students for some courses.
In 1996, Abraham Lincoln University began a hybrid in-class and correspondence approach to law school, designed to offer scheduling flexibility to students, before adding an online component in 2004.
The first law school to offer a degree program completely online was Concord Law School, a unit of Kaplan, Inc., which started in 1998. As of 2006 Concord is the largest of the seven distance learning law schools. Concord graduated its first class in November 2002.
The California School of Law, founded in 2007, is the first law school to utilize synchronous technology in all courses. Such technology provides direct communication between professors and students in live “real time” virtual classrooms.
If these respected institutions across the globe can offer law degree using correspondence, what gives the Council of Legal Education and the Body of Benchers the impression that such cannot be done in Nigeria?
Rather than condemn Open university without basis and unfairly deny its graduate, the Council of Legal Education and the Body of Benchers should give the Open University graduates a level playing ground to showcase themselves.
Only through such an avenue, can the quality of this noble institution be properly appreciated.
Let me conclude by warning that, NOUN cannot be prevented from law school without cogent reason. I advice those in authority to stop this politics and quickly retrace their steps. Should the law school continue to deny our law graduates, we shall not relent, but seek legal redress.

BianoJay:
Now that over 7000 okada riders have lost their jobs and life has become tougher for people who do not own cars, I guess the Anambra state government is happy.

It is only people who do not know Onitsha very well that will be happy with this. Onitsha road network isn't as straightforward as other cities like most people think. There are places that only bikes can take you to and in the absence of bikes, you will have to walk the distance, no two ways about it.
