This is the scene of a naming ceremony in Brazil which shows the people dressed in indigenous Nigerian attires, as well as dancing happily to a Yoruba song.
Indeed, the culture is rich and diverse, don’t you think?

Am currently serving in Anambra state and will also be in the orientation camp (as the M. D. of Music & Band CDS) to train the new members. Anambra just got a new State Coordinator (Mrs Rubica) such a darling & caring lady, coupled with the love been extended to Corp Members by the ever working state governor (Willie Obiano). I bet you will enjoy your service year.
Pls be smart, when you get to Onitsha, the drivers will make you pay through your nose, some pple were made to pay as high as #1500 - #2000. Onitsha to Umunya is less than #200 also bike from the junction to the camp is #100 (Otondo price). Pls don't travel by night else . . .
Feel free to call me for questions & assistance on 08160823587 Oluwaseun (Batch B)
write2obi: That's expensive 3k5 should get you to onitsha and 200 will take you to umunya.
very true....infact Peace mass transit at Ojuelegba costs 3100 to Onitsha....i had d same argument till i thought abouy d comfort of gettin dropped directly at d gate and d prospects of meeting up with fellow "Otondos" who r also resident in lagos evn before gettin to camp...d extra cash is for d comfort n fun(hopefully) and networking during the trip...
still not worth it?...well 5k really isnt that much...
dania30: Nothing really. Any background for the passports. And airtel network is the best in camp also. About the green card, we didn't have any in last batch so wudnt know, sorry. The biggest stress is the reg process. But I'd advise to take ur time with the process.lol. Didnt start parade till Thursday. I hid all my stuff pretended I was still doing the reg. It's all fun tho! Eventually u will get tired and can't wait to be done. I hope I answered ur questions?
hey dania...ny detailed tips on d reg @ camp dat we shld know off? ...d lil things cause d biggest stress..
1. stuf lik is thr a specific background color for d passports we shld come along with (iv heard some camps only take red) 2. does green card date (whr u sign n write date on d green card slip) have to be d date u arrive at camp or js ny random date from d day u printed it online.
by the way if ur in lagos,a transportation company located at yaba called Cross Country offers transportation directly to d camp gate..it costs 5000 to umunya ...js left d place..wld go book 2mao.
lagbaja: Living in Nigeria with its peculiar electricity problem makes it almost mandatory to have a generator. Generators are fuel guzzlers and they leak the pockets dangerously. On the average, it cost about N60 per KWH to power a gasoline generator. The question on many mouths is what can be done to reduce the fuelling cost. To start with, let's understand how a generator works. A powered gasoline generator even without load consumes fuel. Let us call this the fixed energy cost. The higher the wattage of you generator, the more the fixed energy cost.For a 4kva, It consumes about 0.3litres per hour on no load ( this value may increase as the efficiency of the generator diminishes over time). The attached graph is the fuel consumption to load plot for a 4kva generator.
So if this generator is powered for 1 hours at a 50% load, it would have consumed 1.6 litres ( 0.41gallons) of gasoline (petrol) which at the going price of N87 will be N139.20. The KWH cost will be N139.20/(2kva (50% of 4kva) * 0.8( power factor)= N87 per KWH.
If the same generator is powered at 100% load, it would consume 2litre ( 0.55 gallons) which will cost N174. The KWH cost will now be N174/(4kva* 0.8 )= N54.30.
It is clear from above that pushing the generator towards its maximum load capacity maximizes our cost savings. In this case we are able to save N33 per KWH.
How can we use the above information to save us the cost of fueling.
1. Buy generators whose rating is about at least 75% of your load requirement. This could be tricky because our load requirements varies across the day. For example, we put on the Tv and lights during the day but we off them and instead put on the fans. Day load requirements for typical small families varies between 3kva during the day and 1.5kvA at night through to the morning.
2. Use an Inverter - an inverter helps to store excess energy from the generator. Assuming your total day load requirement is 3kVA and night load is 1.5kva, if you have an inverter with 2kva rating, one night of generator use would have fully charged the inverter which you can then use the next night. That would save you the cost of fueling the generator for that night. So instead of speeding N54 per hour for 2 nights, the N87 per hour spent the previous night would guarantee power the next night. That's a saving of N108-N87= N21. Using the inverter will also allow your generator to last longer because it now works less days.
This is just one more reason to use an inverter. We already know that Inverters saves you money also when the public power is available. Public power costs N21 per KWH.
great analysis...pls can u help me with where and how i can get retail dry brewery waste in ibadan.I would like to buy some.
@Lagbaja; Retail price of dry brewery waste in ibadan is between N11-N15 per kg. I had to confirm earlier 2day because I was surprised when you said whole cassava is cheaper than brewery waste. Mayb the price is location specific though. I've been using spent grain for years but I had to confirm your analysis.
please where in ibadan and can i get contact details.i need some dry brewery waste for a project.
