Why do you need the police?

Why do you guys always default back to comparing Nigeria to abroad?

Who in Nigeria is waiting for the government for anything? Are you waiting for them to provide good roads, water, security or light? Don't you have your own gen, borehole, opc? etc
to be sincere, I ain't depending on them.

Kowope baba, you've said it best. Everyone has to decide what security they want for their house grin

Besides you named at least 5 separate levels of defense for your house which are all inline with what I've been saying.

1) you'll get Hausa guard
2) you'll have another one for support
3) you'll get dogs even though you don't like them
4) you'll get an armored front door
5) you'll get an armored rear door

Haba, were on the same page now grin

At least you didn't say you don't need wall or dog and you just need bibeli mimo cool

The same way you cooperate with them for day, you will also do for night when they come calling or someone might not live to tell the story.

@ agarawu23, I took time to go through your response to sir lastpage' comment and I just decided to put Wyclef's Two Wrong on repeat to be sure of what he's implying.

They say two wrongs don't make it right
(Don't make it right)
So if I'm wrong I ain't tryin' to fight...

I'm so used to the pain that I
Can't see the sunshine no more...



As I listen finish, I come put Sunny Okosun's 1984 Hit Song on the playlist "Which Way Nigeria?"

When I read your comment finish, I come put the 2nd stanza of the Nigeria National Anthem with key words that touch my heart highlighted below.

O God of creation, direct our noble cause
Guide our leaders right
Help our youth the truth to know
In love and honesty to grow
And living just and true
Great lofty heights attain
To build a nation where peace and justice shall reign


I got tired of listening to songs and my church mind come tell me to ask you this simple question "Can we attribute this statement made above to you if you're the Minister for Education in Nigeria?"

_________
NewsHeadline:

Minister of Education says "Who certificate epp?

[sub][/sub]

Fortunately and unfortunately, Nairaland is our own parliament where we make or mar Nigeria's image.

Unfortunately, I'm not in a 'take all comers' business, so I can't be ANYBODY. It's hard to stand out when you market your business without a distinctive set of prospects in mind especially those who appreciate the true value of education.

I'm in a business that have an identifiable target population with similar interests and needs which includes respect for professionalism and sound education.

An astute question Sir.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerome_Udoji

In 1972, during Nigeria's oil boom period, he was assigned by the Yakubu Gowon administration to head a review commission of the civil service standards and compensation in the country. The commission made recommendations such as an increase in the salaries of public servants, civil servants training, a unified and integrated administrative structure, elimination of waste and removal of inefficient departments and introduction of an efficient civil service on the basis of management by objective. The commission also recommended the establishment of an Ombudsman in the country. The commission's report was portrayed in subsequent years as a salary review commission though the original intent was to study and make sweeping recommendations on the public service including the recommendation of an objective or goal oriented management style. This salary increases are known today as the "Udoji Award".

All I need in my house is a bulletproof doors in the front entry and kitchen exit.

Even tho I don't like dogs, I will still buy one and make a small studio apartment for my unknown abokii security to sell his normal things they sell. Bring his homeless friends to sleep in my compound at night and go hustle the next morning. Try it wink

I agree with you here. One aboki guards the compound I live and he brought like 6-7 others. 2 of them sleeps in my balcony and they go to work every morning in a nearby market and come home to sleep later in the day( they hardly sleep sef cos they sabi gossip well well). Anytime I hear them talking outside , I feel a bit relaxed.
