No, Seun was warned many years back if he did not do something about some nairaland critising Islam, and having opposing views about Islamic topics.

I think they call it fatwa

dahmie2013:

Don't be deceived with ephemeral, that religion you mention, is given preference over Christianity. Why do they have a special section on nairaland & Christians it is "Christianity etc"? Anyways, Seun is hell bent on promoting segregation and discrimination.

But all that happened in the dark ages. Bro, we are now in 21st century now, haba!

Anyway, I have since concluded that most Africa countries don't have leaders but rulers.

Bede2u:
when whites held sole power (now they share with Asians), they enslaved the whole world and did unspeakable things.
As bad as blacks are, we have not shown the amount of wickedness a white person can show on non whites. Ask Hiroshima how that bomb felt. Ask your forefathers how slavery felt.
Hong Kong was captured as a cocain port to feed Chinese people cocain by Britain. Ask south Africans how whites ruled them.
Anyone who thinks any race can be more power drunk than whites is either a white man or had limited knowledge of history

If you think this president's son is evil, read about European Princes of old and what they did to their subjects. Or what king Leopold did in congo

Wait!

Where is this propaganda coming from?

Pay per view?

Hey! Stop mixing things up.

Nobody is asking Multichoice the parent company of Nigeria DSTV and GOTV for pay per view.

Yes, Multichoice already knows Nigerians demand - pay per channel, period.

Who between these 2 people is truely the father of the internet: Vinton Cerf and Philip Emegwali?

Determining the "true father of the internet" is tricky because the internet's development was a collaborative effort involving many brilliant minds over decades. However, let’s look at the contributions of Vinton Cerf and Philip Emeagwali to clarify their roles.

Vinton Cerf is widely recognized as one of the key architects of the internet. In the 1970s, alongside Robert Kahn, he co-developed T/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol), the foundational protocols that allow computers to communicate over interconnected networks. This work, funded by DARPA, was critical to creating the internet as we know it—a global, scalable network of networks. Cerf’s contributions are concrete, widely documented, and directly tied to the internet’s infrastructure. He’s often called a "father of the internet" for good reason.

Philip Emeagwali, on the other hand, is a Nigerian computer scientist known for his work in the late 1980s on supercomputing. He used a massively parallel computer (the Connection Machine) to solve complex computational problems, like modeling oil reservoir flows, and won the 1989 Gordon Bell Prize for this achievement. While impressive, this work built on existing network technologies rather than creating them. Claims that Emeagwali "invented the internet" stem largely from self-promotion and misinterpretations of his contributions. His work was more about advancing computing power than deg the internet’s core architecture.

Between the two, Vinton Cerf’s role is far more directly tied to the internet’s creation. The internet existed as ARPANET by 1969 and evolved through T/IP in the 1980s—well before Emeagwali’s supercomputing work. Cerf’s contributions were foundational; Emeagwali’s were not. So, if we’re picking one, Cerf gets the nod based on historical evidence and impact.

That said, the internet doesn’t have a single "father"—it’s more like a village raised it. Cerf himself would likely credit Kahn, Jon Postel, Tim Berners-Lee (for the World Wide Web), and others too. But between these two? Cerf’s the clearer choice.

So farmers and people lives are not more important than the critical infrastructures?

Was the Lagos-Calabar Highway construction project ever put out for public tender or bidding?

@Grok Answer:

Based on available information, the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway construction project does not appear to have been put out for public tender or competitive bidding in the traditional sense.

The contract for this 700-kilometer highway project was awarded to Hitech Construction Company Limited, a firm owned by Gilbert Chagoury, without a documented open competitive bidding process.

Several sources indicate that this decision has sparked significant controversy and allegations of non-compliance with Nigeria’s Public Procurement Act of 2007, which mandates transparency and competitiveness in awarding public contracts.

Nigeria’s Minister of Works, David Umahi, has defended the award, arguing that the selection of Hitech was based on the company’s competence and track record, notably its prior work on reclamation projects in Lagos.

He has suggested that the Procurement Act allows for exceptions where a contractor’s specific skills justify a direct award, though critics argue that no such provision explicitly permits bying competitive bidding for a project of this scale—estimated at N15.6 trillion—without clear justification or transparency.

Umahi has also claimed that the project initially followed a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, with Hitech expected to fund it and recover costs through tolls, but later statements indicated government funding, further muddying the procurement process.

Public figures, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Lagos governorship candidate Funso Doherty, have criticized the lack of competitive bidding, pointing out that no public tender was d, nor was the Federal Executive Council’s (FEC) approval documented before the award.

Reports suggest construction began before an Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) was fully completed or publicly reviewed, adding to concerns about due process.

While the government has maintained that the project aligns with legal and practical considerations, no evidence has surfaced of an open tender process inviting multiple bidders, as is standard for major public infrastructure projects in Nigeria.

In summary, the Lagos-Calabar Highway project does not seem to have been subjected to public tender or competitive bidding, with the contract instead awarded directly to Hitech Construction under circumstances that remain contentious and debated as of March 14, 2025.

This quote right here is my experience with the inverter LG fridge in the last 3 years.

yinkus6750:
You can't compare inverter fridge/ freezer with normal ones.
The inverter ones are better in an environment where you have constant light. Few hours without light will still give the right retention. But if it gets prolonged without light, it's dangerous as you will get spoilt items. A normal freezer might remain frozen and last for 48-72hours without light. While inverter without light is likely to be within 24 hours

You mean saner climes like the United States that have been sponsoring Boko Haram?! How many people have resigned because of this allegation in the U.S.A by a whole Congressman Scotty Perry. lol 😂

Oh, and in your frozen brain, you are thinking your lord and saviour, the village idiot wouldn't have issued an average of 200 orders per year by time he is done with his second term at the rate he is going?

Except for the Lgbt order, most of the orders are hinged on personal vendetta and desire to really show his true self - a dictator.

Yes, before now I was of the opinion that America is the standard of democracy.

Because how can a president wake everyday in a suppose democratic setting and be issuing orders like a military junta issuing decrees.

While I agreed that no field of study is easy to get perfect CGPA. If one is extremely good at Mathematics, you can easily get a perfect grade in Engineering but in courses like these guys did - pure sciences which are majorly writing and wordy, omo it will not only take brain but also grace, and favor (lecturers can mark you down as hes/he wishes no matter what you write i.e it is not 2+2 which is universally accepted to be 4).

Dr Adewale Tiamiyu, a lecturer in the Department of European Languages and Integration Studies at the University of Lagos, shares his remarkable educational journey from humble beginnings to academic success in this interview with IMOLEAYO OYEDEYI


How did you feel when you had an ‘F9 parallel’ in your O’level exam?

That was in 1987. I felt it was over and it was not possible to go back to school. But I still tried. At that time, it was my social life that affected me. I used to be a break dancer. I also marched for my school: Adelagun Memorial Grammar School in Ibadan, Oyo State. But at the end of it all, I went to check my result and it was F9 parallel. So I lost hope. Though I later sat for the GCE exam, it wasn’t successful, because I did not have the English language. I tried the examination twice and I had E8 in the language. So I abandoned education in 1990. Between 1990 to 1995, I was in Cote d’Ivoire as a meat seller. So I travelled out of the country. However, I returned in 1995 to Lagos and ed for GCE lessons. At the same time, I worked as a primary school teacher in Surulere. So I prepared to go back to school between 1995 and 1997. I made my GCE in 1996 and got itted into Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife in 1997.

However, was it only the break dancing and extracurricular activities that made you fail the ‘level examinations?

No. That was not the only issue. Then, I was too social and had about 18 girlfriends in almost all Ibadan schools. In those days, we always went to different schools for inter-house sports and I would want to have at least one girlfriend in any school we visited. I am talking of the 80s now. So, I think it was my social life. It was later in life that I understood that I was not a dullard since I had a First Class in OAU years later. I used to think I was a dullard, but my academic achievement in Ife made me believe I was not. I was just not serious during my secondary school days.

What was the reaction of your parents to your O’level result at that time, did they also give up on your education?

They were disappointed that I had an F9 parallel in my O’level. But when I did GCE in 1988, I had credits in four subjects, excluding English. So I did GCE again and kept on having E. So I tried, but I couldn’t make the full five credits. And I never wanted to go to a polytechnic anyway. Assuming I wanted to do that, I could have combined my results. But I never wanted to go. I that after my first attempt, it was one of my girlfriends who taught me Mathematics, which made me the subject in the second examination, GCE. But I never had credits in English. And when I couldn’t get ission to the university, I wasn’t comfortable in my area anymore. So, I had to travel out of the country.

But why Cote D’IVoire?

I wanted to go to the United States from a French country. This was because most of my mates who didn’t make their results back then had travelled to Holland and other foreign countries just to take away that shame of not ing O’level. You know we were big guys in those days. And all our girlfriends had all gone to the universities because they made their results. So psychologically we were disturbed. We just felt the only option available for us was to go abroad and look for money. So that was why we travelled out. I had intended to go to the USA from Cote d’Ivoire. But when I got to Abidjan, I was disappointed with what I saw. I regretted travelling out. And even now, the phobia is still in me as I don’t want to travel out. Even if they are calling me in the same USA now, I already have that phobia that I don’t want to go and suffer anywhere in the world.

Do you know where some of the bright students in your secondary days are right now?

One of them is in my Faculty. We are both lecturing there. Though he is my senior now at the university, he used to be my classmate in secondary school. He went to the University of Ibadan and graduated in 1993. But I got itted in 1997. However, having a First Class in Ife made it easy for me to start my lecturing career immediately as I was retained as a lecturer in my department between 2003 and 2005. So I think my First Class made up for the F9 issues I had in my secondary school. And now, I am even much more educated than some of those who came out with better results during my O’level days. I am a Ph.D holder now. But some of them don’t have a PhD. Each time they see me, they wonder how I made it. But I always say, it is never over until it is over. Life is a race anyway. This means if you are still alive, you can become anything. I am a goal-getter and I don’t think anything is possible.

What about your other friends who had the same poor O’level results at the time like you, where are they now and is there anyone among them who was able to overcome that setback?

None were able to overcome that setback of poor O’level results. There is even one at the University of Lagos where I work currently. He is a bricklayer. He never furthered his education after that experience. He is doing the bricklaying job at the university. In my set at the secondary school, we were about 600. And three of us from the same secondary school and class currently work in UNILAG. One is an Associate Professor. I am a lecturer and the third man is a bricklayer. The first man is my senior because I couldn’t catch up with those who had gone ahead of me. But the third person is still a bricklayer as we speak here in UNILAG. Though we still talk, he is not always comfortable around me, because he is not happy seeing me as a Dr, while he is a bricklayer. But I wanted to encourage him because I don’t believe anything is possible. I believe that if he can dream it, it is possible. I could that when I was doing my master’s programme at UNILAG. I used to trek from Ikotun to the university. I trekked more than 20 times to go for my studies that year. So I am the type that doesn’t give up on something.

What do you think often goes on in the mind of your secondary school classmate who is now a bricklayer each time he sees you?

Well, I think one of them will be the age factor. I am 54 years old now. But when I made my decision to go back to school in 1995, I was 26 years of age. I left Cote d’Ivoire as a meat seller with the determination to go back to school. So I decided at the right time and I got ission at the age of 29. I eventually graduated at the age of 32. So it was still possible for me to catch up with those who had gone far ahead of me. But if you tell my secondary school classmate who is now a bricklayer to go back to school now that he is also over 50 years of age, he won’t want to do that. This is because he is married with children now. It is too late now for him unless his children will send him to school. I ed the story of a woman who got ission at the age of 64 to OAU to study law and she graduated at the age of 70. So it is not over until it is over. Life is just like a football match, once the referee has not blown the whistle, you can’t say this is who will win the match.

You went to Cote d’Ivoire intending to travel to the United States from there, so, how did you end up as a meat seller in that country?

• I had about 18 girlfriends while in secondary school - UNILAG don who had 'F9 parallel' in WASSCE
• 1.8 million candidates for WASSCE – WAEC
• Firm trains 100 OAU students in photography

When I got there, they asked me if I had an O’level result. I said I didn’t have one. They said that hadn’t been that I had an O’level result, I would have been employed to teach English in the primary school. It was at that time I learnt that if you went to secondary school and didn’t have an O’level result, you remained illiterate. For me, it was very difficult to get abroad from the French country especially when I had no evidence that I attended a secondary school. So the people in Abidjan then asked me which handwork I learnt. Then, I told them I didn’t learn any work. So that was why they got me a meat-selling job. I would go around the market with the meat in my tray to sell to people. That was in the Northern part of Cote d’Ivoire. Initially, I didn’t want to do it. But my maternal uncle, whom I stayed with, stopped feeding me at some point. He said he couldn’t be feeding someone that was not ready to work. So I had to accept the job.

But when you got to Ivory Coast and got disappointed, why didn’t you return to Nigeria?

It was not possible to return because I had no fares to do that. So I had to work. More so, before leaving Nigeria, I had promised my girlfriend that I would come back to take her to the United States. So that shame of failing to make it to the United States caught me. That was why I decided to stay back in the French country to work and gather money. I invested the money in the business of selling rice, potatoes, and onions but the business collapsed. So I had to come back to Nigeria in 1995 to pursue education. I took that decision because I discovered that if one does not go to school or has money, one can’t belong to any serious class in society. And since I had pursued money and couldn’t get it, I felt the only way left for me to have class in life was to go back to school. That was why I got back and started reading the Oxford English textbook for primary four, five, and six classes. I also read a lot in Cote d’Ivoire and that allowed me to master all the basics that I lost in the English language.

How correct is the claim that you once worked as a Septic tank evacuator?

That was when I returned to Lagos from Cote d’Ivoire. When I came back to Nigeria in 1995, I stayed with my uncle in the Aguda area in Surulere, Lagos. And evacuating septic tanks is what my uncle did then for a living. So one day, I asked him to give me money to buy books for my GCE lessons and he told me that I had to him in the work. I said I was not interested. He then said he couldn’t give me any money if I was not ready to him to do the work. That was why I agreed to do the work with him. But whenever we got any job then, he would give me only £1 out of the £10 he charged. Yet, I was the one that would enter the septic tank. But I still managed to do it for two years before I got ission in 1997. It was the money I made during those two years that I used to buy the books I needed for my pre-university education preparations. As God would have it, I eventually got ission to OAU to study the French-German language.

During these periods of your struggle for a breakthrough, didn’t the same urge to have girlfriends come again to you?

It can’t come again because I was down and knew the kind of things I wanted. My upbringing was rough because my exposure was very high. But during my struggling period, I discovered that if I don’t have money or get an education, it won’t be possible for me to get the kind of woman and life that I want for myself. I eventually met my wife at OAU. So without education and money, there was no way I would have been able to get someone like her. And that thought has kept me going since I bagged my first degree. I saw the need to take my education to the PhD level. And it was after bagging it that I was able to catch up with some of my old friends and classmates. Some of them even respect me more now, because of my status. Some of them are doing their PhD programmes and I am the one helping them with it. Even those of them that have bagged their master’s Degrees as far back as 1996, I am still the one guiding them through their doctorate programmes now. Life is just like a game. And no one is a dullard. If a student fails, it is the teacher that has failed. This discovery has helped me to train and nurture many students. I can that when I started teaching English in Ikotun after returning to Nigeria, I taught about 70 students the English language and all of them ed the subject. About 40 of them had A1. This was because I had discovered why students fail, especially in language subjects. Currently, I speak eight different languages fluently, including Chinese, German, French, Hausa, Spanish, Korean and all. But I understand about 14 languages. You have to understand a language before the speaking comes. So I understand 14, but speak eight fluently.

How were you able to learn those 14 languages and speak eight of them fluently?

Being a Yoruba man, I speak Yoruba. But when I was in Cote D’Ivoire during those five years, I spoke Jula, the local language that they speak in Mali, Burkina Faso, Guinea, and Senegal. It is their lingua Franca. I was able to speak it because I worked with the natives in the French country. But I also learned French in the country while selling meat. I bought French grammar books and read everything. I didn’t know that through the readings, I was improving my intelligence. It was when I got back to Nigeria that I discovered I had improved. This was because I scored 30/30 on the first test that I took in OAU. I couldn’t even believe it when my score was announced. It was then I discovered that I was not a dullard back then in secondary school. It was just because I was not serious at all. So I kept on studying hard in Ife and when I graduated in 2002, I was the only First Class in the whole Faculty of Arts. I got the entire Faculty prizes that year. The school then retained me as a graduate assistant. But I later resigned from the university in 2006.

Why did you resign?

I received a job offer from Conoil Plc because I had a First Class and the company needed people who spoke French fluently. I went for their interview and they saw that my French was very powerful. So they asked me to get more people for them, which I did. I was expected to give the university three months’ notice which I did in my resignation letter. But before the three months could end, I had already lost the Conoil job. So I lost both ways at the same time. I couldn’t get back into the university and the Oil company had also got someone else to replace me. So I ended up becoming a primary school teacher again in Lagos.

How did that happen?


What happened was that I was expected to resume in Conoil the following month. But because I didn’t want to abscond from the university, I had to give the school three months’ notice. Along the line, I lost my phone. So there was a problem of communication between me and the oil company. I had thought they would wait for me since I had already requested three months before resuming with them. But by the time I left Ife three months later and went to the oil company, they had already got someone else. So, I went back to teaching at primary and secondary schools. Later on, I did my master’s programme in 2010 and was employed at UNILAG in 2012 as a lecturer. I began my PhD immediately and finished it in 2020. So it took me eight years to run the programme. But I thank God that I have been able to make up for lost time.

Do your wife and children speak the foreign languages you speak fluently?

No, not all. But everybody in my family speaks Chinese. They all understand French and German. I taught them the languages. Two of my children are currently competing in an international competition in China. They were invited by the Chinese school. I am determined to get back what I lost in education for my children.

Yes, for people who speculated and bought dollars above 1,000, it doesn't make sense to follow her advice.

But those digital marketers, freelancers, Youtubers etc earning dollars, it is a great advice to adhere to.

No, it's not common sense, it's a shallow one from her. Then as long as you are buying goods here in Nigeria, for anyone who acquired dollars when it was above #1,100, yes you may pay $1,000 to purchase goods, its never the same worth like you put it judging by how naira has gained against the dollar recently.

No, read the judgment again. The money laundering charges were struck out.

SIRTee15:

Can u submit a chaptgpt generated article as assignment I'm any academic institutions?

I use chatgpt a lot. It's so bland, monotonous, vague and predictable. It lacks the detailed and specificity u want for a researched answer.

There was a time I became interested in Nigerian music industry the early colonial period especially the 1920s. Chatgpt just came up with some general and vague answers about the Nigerian music industry in general. It couldn't cone down into the 1920s I wanted.
