That's because of inadequate man power and resource. The agency needs to employ more hands and be pro active.

The social situation in Nigeria today seems
to be different as girls seem to be much
more proactive and earning better, while
the men seem to have become a bit lazy
and there are more broke guys in their
late 20s, 30s, and even 40s than there
should be.
Nice points but U forget that it is easier for a lady to get a job in Nigeria that a guy?

This is in no way encouraging at all. I respect you a lot but I don't swallow church doctrine hook and line. Prayer is never a criteria for a good marriage... Never, we have cases of pastors divorcing, is it that their wives cannot pray? Though, its important women even men know how to cook but its not a yardstick for marriage. What matters is the happiness. He speaks as if he is not aware of the economic situation where getting a job is something else... 85% of Nigeria youths are willing and ready to work but where is the job?. I guess its old age or probably, because he is comfortable so he doesn't feel d pain jobless graduate feel.

Education / Nigeria Universities To Employ 100,00 Lecturers. by mrmatt(m): 5:09pm On Jul 21, 2016
We need 100,000 new lecturers for Nigerian varsities- ASUU
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) says no fewer than 100,000 lecturers were needed to beef-up academic activities in the nation's public universities. Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi, the union’s President, disclosed this to newsmen on Thursday in Lagos. Ogunyemi made the revelation against the backdrop of worries being expressed by education stake holders on the dearth of academic staff in the country’s tertiary institutions. According to him, going by the report of the 2012 NEEDS assessment survey sponsored by the Federal Government, there were 37,504 academics in the public university system. He said that 70,000 lecturers were needed at that time to serve the universities. ``From available records, the system had 37,504 academics during the 2012 NEEDS assessment of universities sponsored by the federal government. ``This is grossly inadequate as the system is in need of 100,000 personnel for academic workforce. ``Out of the 37,504 lecturers in the system as at 2012, only 40 per cent of them had PhDs. ``Today, we have more universities and this means that to actualise the mandate given to them (universities) and remain relevant, the system will need not less than 100,000 lecturers,’’ he said. According to him, the development is worrisome and calls for concern as it is a major threat to government’s quest for national transformation and development. ``This is one thing we, as members of ASUU, have been engaging successive governments about. ``Today, we have less than 40,000 lecturers in the entire university system, which is grossly inadequate. ``There has not been provision for enough manpower over the years in tertiary institutions,’’ he said. The unionist recalled that at a time, even the National Universities Commission (NUC) also came up with an estimate of 60,000 lecturers needed for the university sector alone. He said that as that period, the country had less than 20,000 lecturers in the system. ``This is made worse today with the proliferation of private universities in the country. ``The demand is more than what the requirement was, four years back,’’ Ogunyemi said. He stressed that the union was not against the establishment of more universities, but in doing so, ``there is need to ensure that proper feasibility studies were carried out and requirements met before establishing them''. Ogunyemi recalled that when the union started engaging the federal government on some of the challenges noticed in the system in 1992, one of the main issues was on how to tackle brain drain. According to him, brain drain is still a major concern. Ogunyemi noted that most scholars have been frustrated out of the system due to poor operational environment. ``There are issues of inadequate facilities for cutting edge research and teaching as well as poor funding to carry out such projects. ``In the 1980s, we lost many of our tested hands from Nigeria to other foreign universities, including neighbouring Ghana. ``Our lecturers left massively because they wanted to excel. ``The opportunity for them to excel was not within as their major concern, as professionals, is to ensure that they contribute to knowledge and the only way to achieve this is through cutting edge experimental research,’’ he said. The ASUU boss also identified poor remuneration as part of the issues affecting the system, adding that it had made the profession unattractive, thereby making it difficult to retain even upcoming scholars. ``We found out that at some points, academics were not only poorly paid, but were given pay packages that could not take them home. ``Lecturers are like other professionals. In those days, many industries came to universities to source for their workforce because of the confidence they had in the system. ``The brilliant scholars, we had then, would rather choose to remain in the system to contribute to knowledge rather than go to these industries. ``But with the turn of events, they were leaving in their numbers for greener pasture,’’ he said. Ogunyemi also cited policy somersault as part of the issues militating against academic workforce in the institutions.[b]We need 100,000 new lecturers for Nigerian varsities- ASUU

Celebrities / Re: Lady Blasts Olori Wuraola And Freeze Over Gender Equality In Open Letter by mrmatt(m): 4:16pm On Jun 19, 2016
FlirtyKaren:
Lailan Mary Amara Jacob is vexed over the recent trending statements Ooni of Ife's wife, Olori Wuraola and OAP Freeze made concerning gender equality.

You recall Olori Wuraola had said she's not a huge fan of gender equality. While speaking at the Emerging Women's Forum in National Harbor, Maryland, she had said:

“I am not a huge fan of Gender equality. We can’t be equal, We can’t be men. We have our roles to play here, a very pivotal one. How about if we think about it this way that we are limiting our potentials and where we could get to as women by us keep saying that we want to be equal. I don't think we can ever be equal''.

OAP Freeze later backed Olori up saying:

The Olori of Ife, Her Majesty, Queen Wuraola-Zynab Ogunwusi, spoke what I consider words of absolute wisdom, when she stated her belief that gender equality is hardly achievable in the modern world.
I agree that men and women have equal rights I absolutely disagree that they are equal. If you are in doubt, attempt wearing your boxers on your head and your cap on your butt and then brush your teeth with your belt and hold your trousers together with your toothbrush, then perhaps, my point will be better illustrated.

Well, dear Olori, OAP Freeze, Amara has some strong words for you this morning. Kindly read:

When educated men and women display high level of ignorance, one is forced to speak. Before one makes a public speech, I think it is wise to do some research. It is always safer to get the facts right, before picking up a microphone to show off. Gender equality does not mean competing with ones husband. Neither does it mean rivalry between the man and the woman. Gender equality is not all about marriage. It goes beyond that. Let me educate you both, since you failed to do your home work.

What is gender equality?

In simple terms gender equality means the state in which access to rights or opportunities is unaffected by gender. This means that boys and girls, men and women should get equal opportunities in every area of life. I will give you few examples.

Education
Everyone should get an equal opportunity to go to school. The girl-child should not be denied access to education because she is a girl. Are you not aware that in some cultures/religion women are not allowed to go to school?
Work
Men and women should get equal employment opportunity. Look at our work force today, it is dominated by the men. Do u know why there are more poor women than men today? It is because women don't get same opportunity as the men.

Politics
There should be equal representation. How many women get political appointments? How many are elected into public offices? How many women are governors? How many women are in the state and National Assemblies? Can men truly represent the interest of women?


Culture


We have obnoxious cultural practices that relegate women to background. Little girls are forced into marriages against wishes. Of course you know what widows go through in this part of the world. Is it fair
on our mothers? Is it fair that men who are physically stronger should molest women they are meant to protect? And you proudly say you are not a fan of gender equality? What ignorance!

Marriage

Women should be given same treatment as men. A woman should be allowed to have a say in her matrimonial home. She is not a slave. The man and woman are like two sides of a coin. They need each other. We have our different roles to play. If you have been pregnant before, then you will know what it means to carry a child for nine months in your womb, go through labour pains, then nurse the child to maturity. Most women are never appreciated by their men, what they get is abuse, abuse and abuse even when they are heavily pregnant. If I may ask, why did you leave your first marriage? And your second marriage? Why did you walk away and walked into a third one? Does it have anything to do with being treated like a slave? Does it have anything to do with
frequent abuse? Or did you just walk away without a reason? How can you convince me that you don't believe in gender equality when you already have two failed marriages? Why didn't you remain a slave in those marriages?

As for Freeze, my humble suggestion is that your university degree be investigated. It is shame that after passing through the four walls of the university and working in a media house for decades, you still don't know the meaning of gender equality. What are shame! Besides, you seem to be a man without principles. You are neither here no there. Speaking from both sides of your mouth at all the time in your desperate search for cheap popularity. Today you are here and the next moment you are on another side. Stay off social media in your own interest!
For all those who truly do not understand what gender equality means, here is your chance. It has been explained in plain simple English.

The way some us reason here is so bad. Why on earth will you support the evil done to this country by some leaders? (Only if you are a direct beneficiary) which is still ethically wrong. None of these past leaders under EFCC has ever deny involvement in what they are suspected of. We should encourage this govt to recover our looted funds. And when the table tunes, we should support and encourage PDP or any party that will be in power to recover fund that might be looted my these current leaders.




The battle line is already drawn, leave APC to probe PDP and PDP to probe APC if the have the chance again.
