Ur analogy is so so annoying n wack. Are u telling me u will chose a 100k laptop to million plus car? The truth iswhat the op has said n no othother rereason can justify d shame. Wonder y our society is getting worse every passing day? There goes ur answer.
why are our brains not working properly. I was only encouraging the intelligent girl to make out something from what she has been offered to. I never said a car was bad to own. Moreover, the girls werent asked to make a choice. All am saying is, that much is expected of the intelligent girl from the little she has been offered

Funny we don't think about the future, this girl's beauty will fade but the alhaja's contributions to education will remain. This country is dumb, we all talk and learn about Marie Curie, where are the miss worlds' of the 60s and 70s. SHAME

The ROI (Return on Investment) of a beautiful girl to a company is higher than that of a 'brilliant' one. Who says beautiful girls aren't intelligent?

I believe the contest is company sponsored; hence, the company has little to gain from a first class student. As a matter of fact, most of these companies (telecoms, etc) have lots of pending first class and sharp 2-1 resumes.

I really do not blame them; is Ekiti not the Nigerian state with the highest number of PhD holders? What's the impact of PhD degrees on the state?

Companies pay advitisers, models, etc more than hard working staff. It's all about RETURN ON INVESTMENT, not the number of linear equations you can solve on paper.

...and if I'm asked, I will say a 200 Unilag student is intelligent. How do I know?
She passed her O'level papers, utme, and 100 courses.

I have a 7year old nephew who received 1m for simply participating in a 35 seconds TV advert for a fruit juice company. Meanwhile, the same company barely pay entry level degree holders N70k monthly. Its all about the ROI. This same advert, I believe must have yielded more returns for the company, (than what the dude rolling in an office chair can give).

There is absolutely nothing NEW a first class student can give a company whose workforce already consists of 70% first class and 2-1 holders; all they need might just be a funny advert created by "I go die" & voilla!! More millions will roll in!

Someone is also condemning ProjectFame. Let me ask; do you guys know the gain MTN made from Geoffery, Ruky, Emeka, etc? The truth is 5m, 2m, 1m & cars are mere peanuts when compared with the profit the company made from the contest.

Without these "s. illy" contests, most companies wouldn't be able to pay the "intelligent" workers.

We really need to stop criticizing everything!

You know for brilliant girl, sponsor who gave the car might have access to the pussy but for brilliant, they are always a virgin in which some they even look ugly due to lack of facial treatment since their time are spent mostly on ready while beautiful girls are visiting everywhere.

ME: pls pls.
HER: and i refuse. I cnt take anything from

Does that means the pageant winner doesn't owns a laptop or she can't afford a car. My dear your arguement is baseless. Not all beauty are without brain. Laptops don't browse on there own, they still need few cash for internet connection which d beauty winner can also afford.

I repeat, RUBBISH. How much is a laptop? 90% of university students already own their laptops. I won't be surprised if you are in the 10% without one.

Do you know how useful it is to have a car of your own? That is one less stress to worry about. You need mobility to make money.

Let them ask the debater which she prefers and see if she will go for a laptop. An intelligent girl will also see the best use to make out of her car.

And who said the brilliant chic doesn't already have a laptop for her studies? Chances are she has no car to easily move around or drive from home to school.

The sense of reasoning is not high at all. He's only rationalising why vanity should be rewarded.
