Melezenawii:


You are irredeemable... You just confirmed your illiteracy

1,000,000,000/200,000,000 = 5

So Kini big deal?

What I m saying is this, if you divide nigeria population (about 200 million) it go round five times. What's the big deal?

greatover:
Go back to school

Yea, I'm just speaking hypothetically

If the government just share one billion donated by a philanthropist, and give every citizen one million, it would remain 800 million naira. If we are to assume the population is 200 million people.

BTW... It's just me thinking out loud.

Nice, but please itemize your points for easy understanding

porka:
This is myopic.

The aftermath of the so-called "tactic" is horrible for China and its economy.

First, the pandemic has exposed the humongous advantage that China enjoys in the critical supply chain, especially in the pharmaceutical industry which will never remain the same after the "war".

Americans and Europeans and others serious nations have seen the serious threat posed by allowing China to dominate the supply of drugs and other health supplies. This is a real threat that won't be allowed to continue. Response to this threat is bound to devastate China's industry.

In the same vein, the importance China to the global economy, vis a vis the capacity for disruption is only being experienced. The rest of the world will do just anything to mitigate the risks to the disadvantage of the China's economy.

If at all the "war" has any favourable outcome for the Chinese as being claimed here, it is only temporary. Efforts will be intensified to significantly reduced the vulnerability of the world's economy to a single country's internal dynamics. Ultimately, the world is going to come up with robust risk diversification systems that will take money away from China.

I concur, this so called Victory is short term

Which one is nexus again?

Nigeria which is an opec member will suffer

For me, I hate when a fellow guy holds my hand for more than10 seconds in the name of handshake

What is that thing need to be heard... and you don't just care.

Probably he has politically ambition, but if it's from his "church mind", he would go far.

I was thinking he would say, my government would step down if the insecurity problem persists

It's a pitiable situation, anytime Nigerians show their lackadaisical attitude, in researching facts before they come to public media, spilling trash.

My advice would be for Nigeria to be politically neutral to the ongoing "war"

I think it is scabies... Benzly benzoate should work.

Oshiomole is being favored to replace Osinbanjo ahead of an El Rufai/Amaechi ticket come 2023.

Ameachi, can't allow himself to be vice to El Rufai

Only a thief can catch a thief...

Its 2500 in agbowo complex

Recall that Nigeria practised the British-styled parliamentary system of government in the First Republic, from 1960 until 15 January, 1966 when the military took power.

However, the 1979 Constitution returned the country to the US-styled presidential system of government, largely because of the tensions and acrimonious politics of the First Republic.

Why can't we have our own system of government?

...the kingdom of God is not meat and drink...

We will reap the benefits in years to come

how do we bliv.

By Obadiah Mailafia WE have heard with consternation that the Federal Ministry of Education has introduced a new curriculum in our school system that places emphasis on Arabic, Religious Knowledge and Civics. The Honourable Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu is a friend; an ascetic and incorruptible public intellectual for whom I have high regards. But if what is said is true, the new policy is retrogressive. I have nothing against Arabic. I lived and travelled throughout the MENA countries, the Middle East and North Africa. I can hold my own in conversational Arabic. I’m known among my Arab friends as Obaidallah, same as the Hebrew Obadiah or Avadiah (servant of the Most High). I have communed with the greatest Muslim philosophers: Jalaluddin Rumi, al-Ghazali, Averroes, Ibn Khaldun, Ibn Sinna; and the medieval sages of Cordoba, al-Andalus, Samarkand and al-Zaytuna. No intellectual could possibly downplay the contributions of Arab-Muslim civilisation to world culture. But to say our young children should now focus on Arabic at the expense of science and maths is folly. By STEM, we refer to the whole gamut of disciplines covering science, technology, engineering and mathematics. These skills include numeracy and ability to generate, understand and analyse empirical data including critical analysis; an understanding of scientific and mathematical principles; ability to apply a systematic and critical assessment of complex problems with an emphasis on solving them and applying the theoretical knowledge of the subject to practical problems. It also entails ability to communicate scientific issues to stakeholders and others; ingenuity, logical reasoning and practical intelligence. The definition of what constitutes the core STEM disciplines vary from country to country. For example, disciplines such as medicine, structural engineering and sports science are not included in some definitions. As generally understood, the core STEM disciplines include Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Architecture, and, General, Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Communications, and Chemical Engineering. Across the world, China leads the pack in of the number of STEM graduates produced annually, with 4.7 million; followed by India with 2.6 million; USA with 568,000; Russia with 561,000; Iran with 335,000; Indonesia with 206,000 and Japan with 195,000. By contrast, out of the 1.8 million graduates that enter the job market annually in Nigeria, only 20% (360,000) are from STEM disciplines. This perhaps explains why today we have a backlog of 5.3 million unemployed – some would say unemployable – graduates. In the EU, an estimated 22.8% of graduates have a STEM background. Some 1.8 million employees in the Euroland Area engaged in high level scientific work. Notable among these projects is the European Organization for Nuclear Research popularly known by its French acronym, CERN, and its Large Hydron Collider Project that has brought such enormous prestige to European Science. It has helped that some of the world’s greatest leaders have had a science background. Both Jawaharlal Nehru, India’s first prime minister and his daughter and successor Indira Gandhi were science graduates. Her son and assassinated prime minister Rajiv Gandhi, had a background in Aeronautics. India’s late president A. P. J. Abdul Kalam who ed away in 2015, was one of the world’s greatest physicists. These leaders influenced the creation of the Indian Institutes of Technology, a network of 21 institutions whose graduates rival the best from Caltech, MIT and Imperial College London. It has made India a world leader in science and innovation. The state of Israel was founded in 1948 largely by scientists. Albert Einstein was the first to be offered the presidency. He politely declined. The lot fell on Chaim Weizmann, Nobel laureate in Chemistry. Current prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu is an MIT engineering graduate. Chinese President Xi Jinping has a doctorate in Engineering. Chancellor Angela Merkel of has a doctorate in Chemistry. Only two of Nigeria’s leaders so far have had a background in science: late Umaru Yar Adua who was a chemist; and Goodluck Jonathan, who had a doctorate in fisheries and marine biology. Both did their best to encourage STEM in the Nigerian education system. African countries rank the lowest across the world in of STEM graduates. Not only does the school curriculum place undue emphasis on humanities and social sciences; there are no enough teachers; and a culture has been created that believes that science and maths are “difficult” subjects accessible only to a chosen few. In Nigeria, the matter was worsened by the economic crisis of the 1980s when budgets for higher education were slashed and the most gifted science academics fled the country in droves. The most attractive subjects became economics, ing and social sciences. With these, you could get yourself cushy bank job or work for the civil service. Engineering and mathematics became a ticket to nowhere. Worldwide, the demand for STEM competencies is increasing. Shortages of such skills are particularly acute in developing countries, especially in Africa. In Nigeria, social sciences and humanities make up the overwhelming areas of higher education enrolment, at almost 70 percent. A survey carried out a few years ago showed that Economics was the single most popular course in Nigerian universities. Other popular courses include ing, Law, Mass Communication and Business istration. Science, Engineering and Mathematics trail far behind in of popularity among Nigerian students. What is even worse is that many of the graduates of these disciplines lack basic literacy, numeracy and communication skills, bringing into question their employability in the job market. In an increasingly integrated and globalised economy, pressures of global competitiveness will mount; demands for such skills are expected to rise in the future. It is also understood that technical competencies of STEM graduates will have to be augmented by “soft” skills such as communication, creative thinking and team work – skills that will enhance employability in the marketplace. Other issues centre on improving enhancing the role of women in science and engineering, employer investment in STEM, internships, post-graduation training and international partnerships for science and technology cooperation. No, our future lies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, not Arabic.
