The money u would have used to marry her, use it to run your education n watch the drama that will unfold. Relax bro, nothing spoil. Na the girl go lose 4 Likes |

humilitypays: This is a wrong analysis of the Nigerian higher institution. You're right that some of the best often get carted away overseas. Research has more to do with curiosity than ju academic excellence. Read up on "grit" it's the most important determinant of success. If you had passion for research, you probably would've gone in. In my university for example, it is based on merit many times. I think you have something against lecturers. 5.0 GPA doesn't mean you're the most intelligent. Intelligence is often not the memory game we play in Nigeria. The only difference between a lecturer over there and one here is exposure. Over there, you have equipments to reach your potential and quickly but here, limited equipment. They're not really better, there are good brains here just lack of funding and opportunities. 2 Likes 1 Share |

humilitypays: PhD or certificate is not a reflection of intelligence nor money. You're getting my own argument wrong. I never said phd is equivalent to success in life. However, that someone chooses academics doesn't make him less successful than one in business. Let those you mention use their money to find the cure to covid 19. Abba kyari l had all the money, where is he today? We are all gifted and unique in our different ways. Respect everyone regardless of their works in life. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Thiwalade:Yes you have a point, but brother let me brag small, I am a born genius. If I was a white, I am supposed to be in the league of late Albert Einstein and co. The person you are chatting with here finished reading Physics by Abot while I was in SS1, started studying Physics, Further Maths, etc right from Junior secondary. There was no Internet in my time. I conduct physics and chemistry experiments in my room as a Junior secondary school student. When I got to senior secondary, chemistry, physics, further maths, etc were like book of my bible stories for kids for me. I was way above my mates right from nursery school. I was a wonder kid. I won lots of school awards growing up. I do multiplication, division of even decimal figures with my head without calculator. I helped so many people write waec, jamb, etc and they all passed. I was just too good academically. I read virtually anything readable; holy books, science books, newspapers, magazines, even awake I never missed any of their publications all thanks to my wonderful Jehovah Witness friends that visit regularly for Bible study then. I hardly go out cos I was engrossed with reading anything I see. I finished oxford dictionary page to page, Bible almost. My point is, life experiences have taught me a lot, academic degrees, paper qualifications are nothing....wisdom, intelligence, success, smartness is not by your academic degrees or qualifications. I didn't further after my first degree cos I saw no need, I saw that academic qualifications are a waste of smart and talented people's time, so I quit but I am far more exposed, learned, knowledgeable and better than most professors. My mates call me prof till date cos they say I am a born prof. So you guys should quit those paper qualification crap u use to measure people's success, future and intelligence, it's foolishness 6 Likes 2 Shares |

flexyrule: Keep quiet... You know nothing about ExxonMobil, Chevron and other multinational companies. They treat HND holders like trash. The average salaries of a university graduate to HND is about five times not to mention other mouth watering benefits that goes to B.Sc graduates. I can never advise my worst enemy to go to the polytechnic. |

humilitypays: I respect your intellectual capabilities. I don't know how or why you made your decision not to become a successful prof. I know money matters a lot too but in a country like Nigeria, paper also matter as it shows your I. Q. I think E. Q is equally important to be successful. Being a brilliant student is not enough, you must have facts to back it up too. The most important is using the intelligence for the good of mankind. Money alone should not be used as a yardstick to measure success. 2 Likes |

Thiwalade:That is it....and that was the reason I started commenting on this thread in the first place because I felt bad and angered by the op's girlfriend's dad who judged him and his future based on his HND certificate, who does that ![]() Many people who replied me initially felt I was maybe an SSCE holder defending the op with HND, common, I have seen the high point of PhD holders, I was once the eye of others academically, but haven seen much about life from experiences, encounters with people and exposure, I now judge people beyond their academic qualification or the school they finished from cos some people in Polytechnics are far more intelligent, gifted, smarter than most people in Universities. Some ended up in Polytechnic and College of education based on family background (poverty, etc), some due to unnecessary JAMB wahala....some for some other reasons, and their finishing from a Polytechnic or College of Education does not make them less of a human nor does it mean they don't have a brighter future than the PhD holders and Professors, that was my own point of argument from the beginning. I have friends that cut across all sectors of the economy who are HND, Bsc, PhD, WASCE holders, and even those that didn't attend any school at all, and I respect each and everyone of them for their choices so long as they stay focused on their choice and are financially successful to take care of their needs and that of their loved ones without being a burden to others. That is my own argument. The op should leave that girl unless she defers her father's decision and show truly that she does not buy into her father's stupid reasoning, if not, he should leave her and focus on growing in his career path by gaining relevant work experience and using that experience to climb up the ladder of his field, and when he is financially settled enough, he can enroll for a PGD programme and maybe Msc if it will help him grow in his career. 5 Likes |

OJEEMAH:HND and what? I am not familiar with this your abbreviations. See I was given a job with jamb, but jamb starts BSC level 7, HND level 6. I work with FG Agency, BSC is 8, HND is 7. So how did your friend get level 9 with HND in FIRS? The best you can get with HND in any Federal Government Agency is level 7, but I stand to be corrected though. |

Thiwalade:Oh now I see lol.....I respect your interest, just that the mago mago and bureaucracy used in employing lecturers in Nigeria ends up pushing out the best graduates and employing the worst which is the reason Nigerian education is deteriorating so fast and may die a sudden death if care is not taken fast!! So try and make a difference if you end up becoming a lecturer, don't collect sorting and bribes to pass students, allow students pass or fail on merit....don't demand to sleep with female students first in order to pass them or upgrade their result grade....don't join those useless school boys in their yeye school cults that make them feel they are on the right course since lecturers are also their members.....don't join your fellow lecturers in using juju to kill or attack other bright lecturers or take their glory, try and make a difference, Nigerian lecturing job is a dirty work, don't say I didn't warn you ![]() 2 Likes |

I can subscribe to the veracity of his opinion. I knew of someone that got his appointment at FIRS with BSC (GL 10) late last year through Fowler. The person in question had his documentation in March this year, and expecting placement before the outbreak of CONVID-19. All depends on your strong connection and link. |

[quote author=grandpoh post=89136518][/quote]Most Nigerian graduates from federal government universities and polytechnics are far more brighter and smarter and better than those that graduated from those glorified secondary schools like Babcock, Covenant, Redeemers, Caritas, Madona, etc universities......you cannot compare them. You cannot compare a graduate of UNN, UI, OAU, ABU, UNIBEN, UNILAG, FUTO, FUTA, etc with a graduate of Babcock, Covenant, Redeemers, Leads, Caritas, Madona University, you can't. If you cannot afford to send your child to school abroad, don't waste your time sending him or her to all those glorified secondary schools like Babcock, Covenant, Madona, Redeemers, Caritas, etc, instead send the child to a Federal University it is better, unless your child couldn't pass JAMB and Post-UME, they are better in federal universities than those glorified private universities in Nigeria ![]() |
