Why not? As long as you're okay with him having a third wife.

You must take full responsibility for your actions. Your wife could divorce you on the grounds of deceit and dishonesty. It is highly unlikely for an educated Nigerian adult not to have undergone genotype testing at least two to three times before marriage. The first test typically occurs during childhood, followed by tests during admission to secondary school and higher institutions, and then your employer. You deceived your wife and must fully accept the responsibility. That's the first step.

The second step is to avoid placing this "burden" on your wife, as she is completely innocent. Be there for your child and take full responsibility. Whether anemia is a factor or not, raising a child is never easy, and there are no shortcuts. Anemia or not, you will need to sacrifice your time, money, and well-being. The only place where child-raising seems easy and smooth is in social media content creation. So, let no one deceive you: the journey will be tough, but you're not alone unless you fall for deception.

Gbaja or Abike Dabiri, please.

If Obasa gets the ticket, hmmn.

This is a good move

The funniest thing is that those that failed woefully without system glitch also want to be given the privilege of re-sitting

No be juju he that?

Actually, resit exams are a global phenomenon. Resits should really be a usual practice, especially for an exam that holds just once in a year and has a one-year validity.

Anything could have led to a student failing an exam. I'm currently in my village, and I have heard all sorts of distasteful stories, from how people travelled 2-3 hours to sit for their exams, to how priority was given to some candidates both at the point of registration and during the exams. We can do better.

If after two attempts, we are still seeing a 80% mass failure rate, then students should take only 10% of the blame. The remaining 90% should be distributed evenly among the teachers, school administrators, government, and parents. Mass failure will never be the fault of the students.

When people complained about the issues with JAMB they were insulted, mocked and ridiculed by lowlifers who don't know the value of working hard for anything in their miserable lives.
Any intelligent student will know his or her expected score in any exam.
Discrepancies between expected scores and official results raise serious questions about the credibility and transparency of the examining body.

They were insulted because Nigerians love to suffer. They thought writing JAMB 8 times in their generation was a flex. One minute you are complaining about MTN and GLO network, the next minute, you're blaming thousands of students for failing a CBT exam, some of whom scored very high in the previous exam (but didn't get admission because of the corrupt cash and carry admission process), yet we turned a blind eye because we hate to see young people succeed.

The typical Nigerian adult has been very unfair to the younger generations. Any small thing, we are blaming TikTok and Snapchat as if they were the ones who cursed the previous generations for not being innovative enough.

All over the world, Gen Zs are becoming "digital nomads." If they are failing en masse, then it's time to make drastic changes to fit into their reality. They are not the problem. The older, wicked generations who studied with candle and kerosene lamps are. This is the 25th year into the 21st century already, yet electricity you won't provide for schools like their counterparts abroad; ICT labs, you won't build for schools, but somehow, you want high scores in JAMB CBT. We no just get sense at all.

A few days ago, people were defending this same organisation and its useless results with their lives. It was glaring that the exam was a complete mess, but because many Nigerians have become accustomed to suffering, nearly everyone seemed okay with the poor outcome.

Now that the CEO has admitted his errors
and gross incompetence, I hope you guys will apologise to the thousands of people affected.

What is Worldwide Best ?
Is Cambridge a Worldwide Exam

If she was best in Cambridge Congratulations to her

But How many people actually take the exam in the World or even in Nigeria to be talking about Worldwide best

Did she not take WAEC or NECO?

Was she Best in any of those

From AI

Over 576,000 students across 147 countries worldwide sat for Cambridge exams, including Cambridge Lower Secondary Checkpoint, Cambridge IGCSE and O Level, and Cambridge International AS & A Level exams in the June 2023 series.

These are no excuses. If they believe that education has no meaning why are they in school?

You've just asked an important question: Why are they in school? Majority of them may not be able to answer. They're just there because their parents want them in school.

Ghanians dey dominate Waec while Nigerians dey dominate TikTok and other useless social media platforms

God abeg oh

TikTok is not the problem. Nigerians are not the only people on TikTok.

The issue is that there is no incentive for these students to study hard. When the head is rotten, you cannot blame the feet. These students see their parents, who passed JAMB, struggle to pay school fees. They also see complete dullards who struggle with the English language become governors. They observe nonentities and road traffic thugs command more respect and honor than their teachers and professors.

They see total dullards and criminals with nearly empty heads rise from nothing to Aso Rock, while their parents wey carry book for head struggle to provide basic things like egg and milk.

Teach and sweat all you want; nothing will change until your professors stop rigging elections for vagabonds who forge certificates and cannot construct proper sentences. Your leaders must model the society they want through their own conduct. All that 'do as I say' nonsense belongs to the 16th century.

Fiscus105:
Before they eraze JAMB, let NECO and WAEC be computer base test with CCTV in every corner, after that, let each university conducts her own entrance exams.

Isn't this too much gra gra for a country where a 190 JAMB score with five C6s from a Sokoto State indigene guarantees faster admission to study medicine in Sokoto than a 260 score with seven As in Anambra or Lagos? All this CCTV wahala over a quota system, Northern-bride education system? LMAO. 😂

Allow Universities run different calendars. Students should be able to apply for JAMB exams at least 3 times yearly with a 2-year validity. The idea of mobilising over a million students across the 36 states to sit for the same exam at the same time is diabolic and evil.

A Nigerian student got 40 scholarships to study in different universities in the U.S. This would not have been possible with the archaic system we practise here. Our educational system is diabolic and evil. A man wants to study Medicine, sat for JAMB, and for some weird reasons (could be anything including stress) scored 215. To avoid wasting 1 year of his destiny, the evil system in Nigeria forces him to settle for a course he is not interested in. This is how we truncate people's destinies in Nigeria and render them useless to themselves and society.

We need to dismantle the entire system. Failing a subject or getting a score below the cut off mark is not enough to destroy a person's 365 days. If the education system we practice does not encourage 15 year olds to resit or try again without wasting their 365 days, then it's no surprise why many adults today embraced failure as parts of their reality. The system forces you to embrace whatever life throws at you. No sense of purpose, no incentive to try.

Lol.

fabolouz1:
one of the most dumb thing I have read today.

So, you expect students to do well in JAMB with people like you around them? Is your life motivating anyone right now? You're a significant contributor to the mass failure. The fact that you can't recognise this fact makes your case even worse than the students

1. There's no motivation to excel. They look at the lives of their parents who wrote JAMB, compared it with certificate-less drug dealers in power and don't want to end up like their parents.

For every child that fails JAMB, there are at least 10 failing adults to be held responsible (we all are part of this system). We must take the blame. Our individual and collective failures are a demotivating factor for these kids to excel. You're teaching them Physics, but can't generate electricity 😂😂 How dem want take believe your nonsense, let alone get them to pass?

You're a parent. You wrote JAMB and passed, but you're struggling to pay school fees (the kids know better. They appreciate your struggle, but nope, no way they're taking your path).

2. Poor teaching and learning method. Let's face the fact, majority of our teachers today never wanted/planned to be teachers. Many are in it for survival. The students know how much their teachers are paid and don't see any motivation. The age of "do as I say" is long gone.

3. Stress and hunger: Believe it or not, there's a correlation between hunger and academic failure. Some of these students have not tasted egg and milk since the Buhari era. How brain wan take develop?? Beyond genes, wellbeing/healthy living also plays a role.

4. We are in the age of content and attention. For many of them, their role models are the likes of VDM and co. You have to give them a good reason why their academic pursuit will get them the kind of attention VDM gets on a daily basis.

The bride price and wedding expense for a UK based Nigerian man >>> Nigerian guy based in Nigeria.

Who doesn't know that Nigeria has some of the most vile and fraudulent culture in the world?

Truflexunits:
Iyabo ojo and okoya’s were invited but cubana chief priest and E-money were arrested. Tribalism in every Nigeria sector.

What is Iyabo Ojo's offence please? You're inviting abi arresting her because some guests were caught spraying money at her daughter's wedding? How is everyone else not seeing this level of insanity? Why is the EFCC inviting her, and not Paulo or the groom's parents?

I blame her lawyers honestly, but I can understand. Fighting for her rights will bring undue attention to her daughter and guests. But this shouldn't be!

Why are you inviting Iyabo Ojo instead of the guests caught in the act or the actual celebrants Jul and his wife? This is not making sense. Absolute abuse of power.

Iyabo Ojo obviously permitted this abuse to protect her people and their image. But I hope the drunk institution would not take this as weakness though. Someday, you will have to live up to your own insanity else you remain the joke you've always been when you meet the Okoyas and the Gandujes of this world.

Why you no tell me na, at least, birthday drinks from my side. Do let me know next time.
Happy birthday to them.
I know is a mixed feeling for you but you should know that some things are beyond our power. Also, seeing them makes the pain ease a lot.
Give it time.

Thanks for the love, sis. You've always had our backs, and it means a lot. I’ll give you a heads-up next time for sure. You're right about it being a mixed feeling, which is why I didn't think much about doing anything out of the ordinary. I hope it feels easier next time. Thank you as always 🙏🤗

We are doing fine, my sister. They turned 1 last month. ☺️😍

This is one of the benefits of loans. Take 400k loan in 2020. Pay back 580k in 2025, leaving the creditor with the burden of inflation. You should be grateful that you're paying back only 580k as against #2m (if we account for inflation).

descarado:
Long overdue.

Also, let universities set standards for admission.

If your O level is flawed, you can enrol in the university of your choice and complete their A level in the discipline or related discipline you want to study. Or get A level somewhere else in the field or related fields.
That is the standard world over
Nothing like qouta system.

The only way out of the mess
