@__Laolu And lastly, you need more than a certificate to stand out in a highly competitive labor market. I couldn't get a job in Animal Science I studied in Sweden, mostly due to language barrier and partly because I didn't have driver license. Yet, I got a full-time job as a writer.
@__Laolu Secondly, most low-tier universities Nigerians in the UK attend are only interested in collecting international student fees. I doubt the studies impact real-life skills. A one-year Master's to me, is just a money-making scheme for these schools.
@Barr__D The first time I tried premium subscription for a month, I didn't make a single post all through.
An ordinary comment got 500+ likes and 50+ replies.
I don't have the time for that level of exposure now.
@Medexico@KejiShoneye My hypothesis is that those cows were raised in a specific pasture, where they were fenced in. They have probably learned how to escape by jumping over.
The first cow might have interpreted the line as a fence. It will continue until another cow breaks the pattern.
@josewealth20@the_Lawrenz Lol. As a professional writer, the first mention of Africhange got me rolling my eyes. Then the second one validated it. Well, just wondering how Africhange will track conversion rate without the affiliate link now. Good story, though whether real or made up.
@SolaTheAnalyst He better accepts his new reality. That's why they are a team. It doesn't matter who pays, whether the wife or the husband. You don't bring your man of the house ego abroad.
@Iwarifgha1 I am not sure of what you mean by a "failed system" here because natural disaster happen everywhere. The only difference is that most farm owners in developed economies pay premium insurance that cover such disasters. If that's they system you mean, then I agree with you.
@KXLAADE Lol. I have touched down in both Netherlands and Ethiopia countless times. Spent over 6 hours waiting times on a few occasions and I still don't list them as places I have been before. If I don't sleep over and/or experience the city, I don't see it as a place I have been to.
@jpattueyi That's why everyone should read a book or two on psychology regardless of their discipline. All these types of things hardly work on me. You can't use words to make me do what I don't have in my plan to do, no matter how sweet you word it.
@avrilamaka I remember dating a lady who always roll eyes whenever I say "Omo." Said it's too local.
Three months in, she started using it, even more than I did. I bet she still does today.
Omo is one expression that would probably fit into any occasions.
@tphilz_ Lol. Even me, sometimes, I ask my Caucasian Canadian friends where they are from originally, and 99% are from Europe.
Apart from the less than 5% indigenous people, everybody in Canada came from somewhere originally.
one of the quotes i find most inspiring on a hard day:
"Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom"
