Politics / Re: Foreign Degree & The Nigerian Mentality by Godogwu: 6:41am On Mar 05, 2013 |
davidylan: That's a silly thing some people tell themselves... Education is a great tool to success anywhere in the world. I never said there are no problems with Nigeria, did i?.... Stop looking at Nigeria from just your perspective, rather rely on facts. I'm in school at the moment even if my parents are whatever. I have friends who really don't have to work a day in their lives... Parents own yatchs, never flown economy and shi like that..... Like the money is that much, but still they go to school. Education is a tool to success in any part of the world just like I've said before. |
Politics / Re: Foreign Degree & The Nigerian Mentality by Godogwu: 6:30am On Mar 05, 2013 |
Anyone can always write a sob story to pull a specific crowd. There are thousands of success stories with respect to people gaining degrees from foreign institutions and deciding to work in Nigeria. My cousins who graduated not to long ago (2011, 2012) all have good/modest jobs. P.S all of them schooled outside the country. Secondly it depends on what exactly you studied, wherever you studied. You don't study public speaking or sociology and expect to get a job at once you step your foot back into the country. There are careers in high demand in Nigeria and there are careers that are of less demand also. Then again how well did you do in that degree, you really don't expect a company to hire you with a third class when there are second class and first class applicants queing for that same position no? Finally, I won't despute the fact that there are people who labored hard through school who are jobless, obviously there are but that's a factor in every part of the world. I won't also say favoritism is non-existent, well if I own a company I'd rather hire my nephew over any stranger even though they have thesame qualification and all. That being said, i personally believe there are lots and lots of enterprenueral opportunities in Nigeria... You cannot always rely on the FG to hand over jobs to every graduate out there (even the ones that don't merit it).. Go out and do something for yourself rather than lament on a forum. 2 Likes |

davidylan: I do not understand nigerians who spend so much money to get a foreign degree only to return to the failure that is nigeria. Well that's your very shallow minded opinion. |

IgboUK: poor nigerians, instead of u to discuss on nigeria being a failing country and how to improve it = your are obsessing over celebrities Dude!!! Chill the F$&k out!!!.... Your type just complains and complains with no actual solution to anything. Nigeria is not a failed country goddamit! Go and read stats; growing middle class, GDP, infrastructure, industries, employment etc....frankly no senator earns 250million naira a year ( no?, then prove it!). I don't even know what you mean by no roads, no electricity and bla.... But I'll just let that slide cos i knw the Nigeria I live in. Your cousins or nephews or whatever are just poor minded and shallow minded people, well I'd believe they are still kids. Forgive me but a lot of 5yr olds in the US want to be the next barrack Obama not because they want to change anything either but because they want to be the PRESIDENT. You sound extremely bitter though.... Well that aside, Nigeria has the largest entertainment industry in Africa and not everyone is caught up in political discussions, all what not. Sometimes its good to just chill you know 1 Like |

Politics / Re: A Letter To Nigerians In Diaspora by Godogwu: 10:27am On Feb 15, 2013 |
kufre2010: The logic is that majority of Nigerians in diaspora are politician children who stole d country and send their children abroad. Majority of our politician children don't stay in Nigeria. Politicians investment are abroads, their children school abroad, they go medical check up abroad. Our politician embezzled the money in Nigeria to developed other countries. They are white men in black bodies. You see it's this kind of mentality i find utterly disgusting but if I'd say anything, I'll probably be labeled arrogant and all sort of rubbish..... Well screw that; The Nigerians in diaspora are politicians kids? Please how many politicians are there in the country? Do you have an idea how many million Nigerians are in the diaspora? Like!! What is this rubbish Many of politicians kids don't stay in Nigeria? Please how many do you know, where are your goddamn facts man?! Politicians investments are abroad..... You do know that being a politician is not a "career" choice right, you do know these politicians were engineers, doctors, accountants, practicing graduates for years before they joined politics.. Yes? and that they currently earn salaries for whatever post they have been assigned by the government? Do you know that there are broke politicians? Nahh I'm sure you wouldn't know that.... Frankly your very myopic view of things is just astonishing, like! What is this? You should hide your face somewhere... Really |

kingoflag: LOOOOOL, i see you misunderstood virtually everything i said. First of all you sound so, Iono.. Bitter? I'm not calling myself a saint and i have obviously said this over and over but I'll repeat it again, I don't brag, boast or whatever.... I basically just state the obvious; if you see that as bragging its entirely up to you. Secondly i never said or stated that people who use mortgages are broke like TF my aunt mortgages her house and she earns about $120,000 a year... She's definitely not broke but shes not rich or wealthy. This is because she doesn't own that home till shes done paying every penny of it. Now finally i could careless what people on this forum think about me..... Like!! I cannot be bothered and i won't be little my Dad by bringing him to have any sort of discussion with a nitwit like yourself.

manny4life: I've said this before and i'll say it again, there's no random LUNCATIC in Nigeria that would just go about shooting 5-6 or 7 year old kids for absolutely nothing!!. That aside; there kiddnapping, armed robbery, jungle justice, and all that. These situations have motives to them kidnapping; money...armed robbery:money....Jungle justice: No confidence in the justice system etc. Why exactly a full grown man would kill all those kids for no reason is utterly outrageous. You can keep ranting on how Nigeria is failed, Nigeria is corrupt, its a Sh!t hole, nothing works...bla bla bla bla....it would never move me or so many other Nigerians who actually believe in their country. You left, thats good for you but some of rather stay back and toil and strive till the country rises to her even greater heights. Cheers 1 Like |

kingoflag: Did you re-read what you just wrote? So i should pick up the phone and call my dad to come to the US on the 18h just because some person on nairaland who he has no buisness with can see him or no wait, i should drag him to a meeting he wasn't invited just because its focus is on saving Nigeria? and so they can kick us out because we weren't on the list? . I really don't get your point. Frankly I'm not the type that gets intimidated by anyone, not at all...lets just say I have a very high self esteem; in the sense that I wouldnt bow to you if you can feed my entire generation, nahh G. I give respect where repect is due. Now back to reality... I get that you are fighting for equality but the absolute fact is that Inequality in the society will always be there in every society. I believe in SOC 101, the functionalist perspective agrees that inequality in any society is needed for social balance. What everyone is actually fighting for is an "even playing field" that is; equal level of opportunities, equal level of respect etc, I believe thats the point you are trying to make and I totally support it. Nevertheless, I would like to state that no matter how equal the oppportunities in a society there would always be the ones who suffer and struggle, the ones who smile everyday and the ones who are just in between...ALWAYS!, its inevitable. 3 Likes |

My dad wont die....at least not until its his time, and if whatever unfortunate incident happens to him...i'm so fortunate to still have my mother, also his investments and savings are there, my grand parents are there, my extended family is also there.

manny4life: Godogwu, is a 19yo kid whose father and mother are rich not an average Nigerian who's struggling. He thinks Nigerians living in the U.S. are hungry, he thinks mortgaging (financing) is poverty. The few recent threads(about 6months old) tell of his type. Anyway, the dude needs reality check. Ohh i remember you.... How you been, i liked most of your posts on the whole debate you had with that Ghanian dude, you showed great intellect. Now I don't think all Nigerians who live in the US are struggling but i believe and its a fact that most of them are, just a few we're able to utilize the opportunities. Same applies to the ones in Nigeria, obviously a greater amount of the population is suffering or struggling but that doesn't dispute the fact that there are the ones who live the "okay" life. I believe that paying for a house for over 20 years can no way be defined as success, you may not be poor but you are definitely not rich. This is because if at some you are unable to continue with that payment for some reason, you loose that property. I've said this several times, I'm not rich, neither is my family, we just make up the very strong and growing middle class of Nigeria. I know rich people and i know how they live..... Maybe by your standards, but by my standards nahh 1 Like |
