LETTER TO NIGERIAN YOUTHS

LETTER TO YOUTH Keep your Degree in a safe custody for future opportunity, and engage in entrepreneur skills, otherwise you will die poor. Most of the educated people in Nigeria are poor. Majority of the educated earn less than N55,000 for a salary before tax and other deductions. When the deductions are put into consideration, the net salary comes to around N50,000. The net salary then suffers from loan deductions of up to N15,000 leaving the salary at around N35,000. The landlord then demands for his N15,000 and monthly shopping takes away N10,000 leaving one with a N10,000. The bus will demand for N300 going to and from work and relatives get another N2,500.

Titanic II is happening, and we don't mean a sequel to the hit film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. We're talking about a brand new, very real ship from Australian company Blue Star Line which is set to sail on its maiden voyage in 2022. In fact to pay tribute to the original ship, Titanic II will be sailing on the same route as the liner, which famously sank back in 1912 after crashing into an iceberg during its maiden voyage between Southampton and New York City. Of course this replica will have much more up-to-date safety features and navigation technology - although it's inspired by the infamous liner, it will boast modern day amenities and features. However, there will be plenty of nods to Titanic itself, from the layout and interiors, with designs inspired by the iconic ship - including a near identical version of the ship's grand staircase. Titanic II is expected to carry approximately 2,400 passengers as well as
