Lol. What is empirical evidence and why is it trending on Nigerian twitter?
So the word empirical evidence is the trending phrase in Nigeria now. This is after former Education minister, Mrs Oby Ezekwesili used it during her interview with Aljazeerah. Dr Ezekwesili had asked for empirical evidence when a question was put to her that her former boss Obasanjo's administration was a corrupt one. Trust Nigerians to make the phrase their own in the most hilarious manner. See the tweets after the cut...
Lol Nigerians are funny set of people. I followed aunty Oby's discourse late last night till I sleptoff, she only said she can't label anyone corrupt without empirical evidence. She refused to label GEJ nor OBJ corrupt based on the verdict of public opinion.
While I appreciate Nigerians for always finding a reason to be happy,I sometimes wonder if we aren't joking our lives away.
Empirical evidence isn't a magic word.simply put its something that is based solely on experiment or experience and not rumor mills or blogs.So I really don't know why this should be turned into a joke.
How do you use empirical evidence to proof corruption? How would you collect that data? Isn't it by lack of due process being followed? And d state and level of institutional breakdown? Empirical evidence is knowledge acquired by means of observation or experimentation.
Most times by means of observation; do you hv to systematically observe under controlled environments to know that OBJ was corrupt. I'm lost...
Empirical evidence is information acquired by observation or experimentation. This data is recorded and analyzed by scientists and is a central process as part of the scientific method
Dear anonymous if u are not ready to smile....simply go kill ursef............Nigeria is already hard for us......so we got to laugh with the slightest opportunity we get
Lol....Nigerians will always look for ways to make themselves happy. And I like that about my country people. No wonder we are among the happiest people in Africa.
It's not a joke because we don't know what it means (anyone who doesn't can always look it up in a dictionary), but because of the context in which it was used. Everyone knows that OBJ and GEJ both ran very corrupt administrations and we don't need 'empirical evidence' to arrive at that conclusion. The gist of the joke is her hypocrisy.
You need Jesus in your life. Most of you are there wasting away your lives, tweeting away your destiny and blogging away your future. Most of you are still "mummy tanku ma" child-adults. Jobless occupants of the three-seater sofa in your sitting room with remote control at hand. Yet all you know is to condemn those trying hard to map a future for you. #LindaMyBankoleGf
I don't think is the word itself, but how abrupt she used it as the basis for her answer and using it as a defense for her formal boss, who will all know stole public funds
Nicole, there is empirical evidence littered all around this comments section to suggest you talk too much in person. My 2 cents anyway. Yep! That's another empirical evidence.
The empirical evidence contained within your post is highly suggestive of the fact that your computed IQ level is 80% close to being like that of a retard and 20% to being within the boundaries of normalcy.
Nigeria Oh Nigeria! Where are thou headed? I wish we all thought right before making decisions and criticisms. Think of how you would feel if it were you.
You think you are a good person? Take time to ask 5 random people (who know you) what they think of you, beg them to be sincere and you might just be dazed when you know who/what you really are.
Well my take Oby was very smart with her answers. Any other person that is not smart would have been thrown off balance during those questions. Oby refused to disgrace her country in the public eye. It's better we settle our matter in house. This Oyibo them too they feel say Na we corrupt pass meanwhile Na them carry am for head. Every time all you here from them is Nigerians are corrupt and they treat our people like shit outside. Even our so called black brothers South africa: you can imagine what they where spewing from their mouth during xenophobia. Oby to me did the right thing. It's better she comes to GEJ and OBJ and fight in house than allow the public that are even worst than us in terms of corruption quote her. Good she didn't answer because tomorrow headlines will be Oby ranks Nigeria corrupt as all the leaders both past and present are all corrupt. As long as I am concerned the joke was on them. For those of us that learnt new English from her make we also joking write am for diary and use it as occasion demands.
Pls who set up EFCC, obasanjo, so you dear investigate your boss. This ezi woman is a big fruad. And her bring back our girls campaign was another fraud to gain recognition and Rubish GEJ. This woman is another fake Nigerian in d circulation of their stereotypes
