So, should you spend 3-4 years of your life doing a PhD? In my opinion, the straight answer is YES, if you get the opportunity. I say this because of three main reasons:
1. Doing a PhD between 2011-2015 helped me understand that there is more knowledge out there than we can ever imagine. I mean, we only know so little and smart people know that they don’t know or they only know so little, and that makes them humble.
2. The research, creative and critical thinking skills you develop while doing a PhD will help you thought life.

3. In Africa and of course other parts of the world, a PhD sets you apart from the crowd. You become an academic elite and a subject matter expert in a certain area.

Some Nigerian folks who live in the US are trying to stylishly question why other middle class Nigerians come to the US to give birth. You you you what are you doing in the US?

By the way, 2 popular people were assassinated in Oyo state in the last 48 hours. Don't piss me off.
Of course every sensible person wants to give their children an alternative and that's why they go give birth in the US and why a lot more relocate to Canada. If Trump closes that channel, so be it. People will find alternatives or become more interested in Nigerian politics.
I must be clear here, it is not that a lot of those who are seeking OPTION 2 are not interested in Nigeria, but people are tired of shouting and complaining and they don't see anything changing in the nearest future, so they port!

Interview question 6:

Why should we give you this job?

Demonstrate enthusiasm and show how your skills matches the advertised role. Importantly, demonstrate that you will get the job done.
Interview question 7:

Are you a team player?

Highlight a few examples from your previous experience that demonstrate your team working abilities. What was the situation? The task? What actions did you take? What was the result? You need to basically use the STAR method here.
Interview question 8:

What do you think of your current or former boss/manager?

Explain the positive aspects only. Never criticise or bad-mouth your former boss or manager during an interview.

1/3 of #Albertans feel they'd be better off as an independent country. Anyone reading this who is surprised, hasn't been paying attention. Of course I'm sad to see the number. I am a traditional coast to coast to coast Canadian.
I was 19 when I moved from my home in Quebec to Alberta. And one of the most attractive aspects of living in Alberta for me was the patriotism I felt everywhere around me for Canada. I never met a Mountie in Quebec. I never spent a moment in a National Park. I never saw the
Enthusiastic support for Canadian Forces in Quebec that I felt every day in so many ways in Calgary and Edmonton & every other city, town, village and farm, in Alberta. Those were snail mail days. And I would write my dad about how great it great it felt to be an Albertan.

1. After this debacle of a post, maybe it's finally time for @cathmckenna to rest her Twitter thumbs. Below, she lauds the pro-carbon tax @PAPOICanada initiative. This seems innocuous at first, but let's explore this group's partners & mandate shall we? #onpoli #cdnpoli #abpoli
2. @PAPOICanada supports an escalating carbon tax & a $100/tonne carbon tax. According to University of Calgary analyses (see Financial Post, Jun. 27/18), a carbon tax at that rate would cost $2,223 per household in #Alberta & $2,340 in NS per annum. #cdnpoli #onpoli #abpoli
3. The American counterpart of @PAPOICanada, @PriceOnIt, also supports a USD$80/tonne carbon tax, and was founded in part by @ourclimateus. #cdnpoli #onpoli #abpoli

#Alberta has an 8.2% unemployment rate. Massively uncomfortable question: What do you think the rate would be if #Alberta was a U-S state? The correct answer is full employment. Everyone knows how much I love Canada and #Alberta So it breaks my Cdn heart to think our federal
system is so incompetent,unflexible & ideologically biased that we should have to ask uncomfortable questions like this. Look at the low unemployment numbers in U-S states that have far fewer advantages and assets than #Alberta and you don't have to be a #Nobel prize winner in
Economics to know that #Alberta would be the superstar, the Connor McDavid of state economies if the government and courts weren't albatrosses around the necks of #Albertans I always want #Alberta to be part of Canada.But how I could blame #Albertans looking at 8.2% unemployment
