Not in a dekcuf country like nigeria.

Yes, it is that bad.
No admission by merit, nepotism has eaten deep into the country.

Thumbs up son.
Omo Bukky, congrats.
he does not look to be in the officer corps and getting into us military academy too is not that easy enough vetting and approval even your senatorial confirmation sometimes

raker300:
the red soil is as a result of high level of iron the soil. It's a common site in southern nigeria. The advantage is that the soil is sticky and can last long.

Erosion is a common issue in nigeria not just the East. Just of recent a man was complaining after losing his house to Erosion in Lagos.

Yes, the technology is still in trial we hope we get wonderful results
matured response

LordAdam:


Oga, you sef know say to rewrite our constitution no go solve the problem. Not sure I know exactly what the nation's problem is but being from the SS, I know say our case special wela. Northerners own dey baffle me, them for ground no fit grumble against the impunity of the ruling class. Igbos no like each other. Yoruba own is complex.

In my own opinion, na federalism sure pass. Each region have their own peculiarities, what we want is competition so that each region can develop by pooling local resources with little friction; not dragging resources. The North has agriculture and minerals, the West has finance and industrialization, the South South has oil, the east has coal, other minerals and business acumen.

Rather than trying to usurp other regions, let us do our little to get things done in our own regions, one step at a time. So that the ND would not complain that their oil is feeding the nation, not remembering that the oil is free, dem no work for am. The North can stop saying we are ungrateful considering they feed most of the nation, the east cannot say they bring all the business and are marginalized and the west cannot say they keep the finance engine of the nation going and are not been noted well for their efforts.

USA is not just Washington DC and New York. There are much more in every region of the country, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Las Vegas, Seattle, Atlanta, Houston, Philadelphia, San Diego, Dallas, San Francisco, Austin, Oklahoma, Tucson, Kansas, New Orleans, Pittsburg.

Same thing in Canada. Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Hamilton, Winnipeg, Calgary, Quebec city, Saskatoon, Surrey.

In Europe, UK: London, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool, Leeds, Oxford, Cambridge, Cardiff, Nottingham.

Germany: Berlin, Frankfurt, Cologne, Munich, Stuttgart, Hamburg, Bremen, Nuremberg, Dusseldorf, Dortmund.

In contrast, in Nigeria, it's as though we have just four, Lagos, Abuja, PH, Enugu, Kano. Of those four Abuja is a fake city built on bloated real estate prices and a pricey lifestyle. PH is reliant on the oil companies. Lagos, Enugu and Kano seems to be the cities that will withstand more shock of the five as is evident with the current recession. Even in these forefront cities, na only small part like city center make sense, every other part na wash.

But we can have a lot more in each region that are well developed, that will serve as beacon of civilization for nearby towns and communities. In the North, Kaduna, Sokoto, Katsina, Minna, Makurdi, Zaria...
In the West, Ibadan, Abeokuta, Ikeja, Ife, Akure, Osogbo...
In the East, Onitsha, Aba, Nnewi, Abakaliki, Owerri, Nsuka...
In the ND, Calabar, Uyo, Ikot Ekpene, Warri, Benin, Yenagoa, Asaba...
In the middle belt, Lokoja, Jos, Illorin, Okene... and more

But because we are trying so hard to drag resources and marginalize each other, most of these cities are shadows of what they really should be. Every body should not troop to Lagos to make it. The FG can only do so much. The development we seek, in my opinion, rests in what the regions can do for themselves.

Solely my opinion.

for once someone impressed me on nairaland. wanted to add flesh but my eyes are falling now. thanks bro.

godspeed:
Good one by the LMC, but then there is room for improvement. I'm looking at a situation where points earned and goals scored can be monetised.

E.g each point earned can fetch 1 million naira(in this case enyimba would hv pocketed 70m) while each goal scored can earn u 50,000. This will make d league more competitive
that is being done already after all the calcutions eyimba will be getting about 80million. this will be increased next season as better sponsorship deals are being signed.

Why blame GEJ? Should he wear the army uniform & go to war personally? When the Northern soldiers are busy sabotaging the whole exercise. The Nigerian Army have been greatly compromised mostly those from the North. They are all Biko Harams.

Excuses, hallmark of poor leadership.

All these carnage and killings excerbated after someone lost election four years ago, May he never know peace for bringing wanton suffering and destruction to peoples life.

When exactly did boko haram start? Is it four years ago ? you should be intelligent enough to know the right answer not playing stupid politics with everything.

You know nothing about military manouvre or tactical approach in battles so shut da fvck up. Elementary combat skills will let you know the approach adopted. Do you even think Chad will on their own come into another sovereign territory without their consent. Kids that have refused to grow up since ginger bread.

Have they(chad) not done so before now? in the 80s. Probably even complicit in the whole boko haram issue.

Education / Re: Is Mathematics A Compulsory Requirement To Be Commissioned Into The Military? by odk1: 2:26pm On Jan 30, 2015
ShowYourCertificate:
Nairalanders, lets discuss this in a civilised way. No insults please.

During the Cambridge exam years mathematics was not a compulsory subject. if you know someone that schooled during that period you can confirm. As it affects the military then I'm not sure. But I guess it should not matter cos you don't even have to sit for the subject.

as daft as you are, you do not know that their is a joint operation going on in that area. mtchew . AU peace keepers will be in naija before the elections since tribal and religious sentiments will not let Nigerian Army personnel do their job, the neighboring countries have our approval for such incursions.

and this makes you proud as a Nigerian?!

Politics / Re: Buhari To Speak Wednesday Over His Qualification For Election by odk1: 11:17pm On Jan 20, 2015
PEREP:


If the Affidavit has said what you stated above, he would not require a special News Conference.

He claimed in 2003, 2007 and 2011 that his Wasce was Submitted to the Military board.

For me, he should have applied immediately this became an issue and WASCE would have given it accelerated action.

Till tomorrow.

It seems you have not gone trough the constitution I will advise you to do so. with the information given by the military buhari is qualified to contest, I will advise you to quit being lazy get a copy of the constitution and read I will not do that for you. That said I have not been impressed with the campaign strategies of both parties.
