Please where can get GRE materials and @ what cost?

Anyone telling you that you can get a lecturing job with your 2.2 is just deceiving you. If your GPA does not reach a certain requirement, you would not able to do your Msc directly sef. You may be required to go through the PgD route. I suggest you apply for your masters first, get a very high CGPA, then you MAY be considered. If not, go all the way to PhD and you would never be rejected.

Please what's the cost of GRE in Nigeria and where can one take the exam

thesoj:
If you get admitted to a PhD program in any of the sciences or engineering, there's a high chance that you'll receive substantial funding in which case your bank statement may need not be more than N3m (i.e. about $20k CAD, assuming the funding covers all or most of your costs).

If you have no funding, then according to CIC you need a minimum of tuition plus $10k CAD in your accounts (say $28k CAD). But to play it safe it is best to have at least double that amount in your account for a four year program... that is $56k CAD which is about N8.5m minimum.

Choi! That one na better money to use do biz for naija o

thesoj:
Your question is extremely open ended. It is difficult to sufficiently answer without knowing your tuition fees and the length of your program, and if your admission is for undergraduate or graduate. Also, you would be able to easily infer the answer by reading starting from Page 1 of Part 9.

sorry. I intend enrolling for a PHD programme. Tuition is between $12k-$18k

Please what is the minimum amount of money one should have in his statement of account while applying as for a student visa.

IyaIode:
But your people does most of the importation, whenever you get biafra, you will still import from Nigeria

If.you had travelled beyond your village hut, you would have heard of Innoson, Ibeto and other Igbo industrialists.

Please what vocation skills (photography, barking, hair styling) should one possess before immigrating to canada.

Please roomies, I need some answers. When would the EE program end? I ask because I intend applying by mid next year so as to have enough time to build up my statement of account. How feasible is this given the fact that some regions may have allocated all slots before then.

Shyee:
WES evaluates only formal educational credentials. if your credentials are formally gotten, i think you are good to go. u may use the pre assessment tool on WES site.
peace

I don't think this is entirely true. From the info I got on the site, there is a category for vocational and professional education. Are you saying that professional courses do not fall under thus category? I have NEBOSH and HUET. It would really be a,waste if WES doesn't evaluate them.

Any news regarding the application? I applied and still waiting for something

Fools. Most of you here have not travelled outside Yoruba land that's why you are myopic. Have you heard of Igbos killing or victimizing other tribes in their land? Lazy thwarts that wait for others to work then you reap

It is obvious that the author has a certificate-dependent mentality which is the bane of our graduates. His first point buttresses this. When do we learn not to depend on certificates?

Freedom of speech has often been defined as the (political) right to communicate one's opinions and ideas. It is one of the Four Freedoms enshrined in the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the others being freedom of religion, freedom from fear and freedom from want. With specific regard to freedom of speech (used interchangeably with freedom of expression), Article 19 of the declaration states that "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers".
Free speech is considered as the fabric of democratic society, as it gives voice to the numerous opposing interests competing for resources, recognition and protection from the state. The Democracy Index published by the Economist Intelligence Unit uses freedom of speech to measure the state of democracy in each country.
Freedom of speech also comes with its moral responsibility. It is expected that while an individual or group may air its opinions, it should also make room for other opinions which conflicts with its values or interests. As Chomsky puts it, "If you’re really in favor of free speech, then you’re in favor of freedom of speech for precisely the views you despise. Otherwise, you’re not in favor of free speech". It is also an unspoken creed that societies and individuals do not use their speech to spread ridicule, hate or violence against opposing groups. Measures taken to exclude certain types of speech such as slander, hate speech, copyright infringement et al, imply that freedom of speech though infinite, has moral boundaries.
The recent attack on the offices of controversial satirical French magazine, Charlie Hebdo, prompts us to analyse the boundaries of free speech. Precisely, at what point may 'free' speech be interpreted as being hurtful or slanderous? At what juncture do we characterise an utterance as 'irresponsible' and a nuisance to free society?
To answer this, I would use an occurrence in my work place. By virtue of my job, I come in contact with people of different nationalities. Americans, Canadians, Indonesians, Croatians etc. One day, the supervisor (an American) was addressing a group of Nigerian workers, and he used the word mudafucker. The Nigerians found this word offensive and took the matter up. The American looked surprised and bemused at the fuss created by what he described as a slang. He was later made to apologise.
This illustrates that the definition of free speech differs across societies, with its boundaries expanding or shrinking, depending on the particular culture or society.Cultural and mental representations of (vocal) symbols vary across societies and so is the reaction towards them. While some societies may find a particular symbol offensive, others may not. Which explains why the American was surprised about the fuss over a mere slang. As such, it is the responsibility of citizens in a global community of different cultures and symbolic interpretations is to cognisance these differences and accord them their various respects. Something, Clifford Gertz called emic point i.e seeing the culture through the eyes of the culture bearer.
The attack on Charlie Hebdo was not only a fire burning in the background for too long. It is also an example of how irresponsibility in exercising free speech can have pernicious effects on multicultural societies. Yet again, it helps us unmask the hypocrisy in free speech where its definitions are only meant to serve a particular section of the society.
While the magazine repeatedly published cartoons which constantly mocked Islam's central beliefs and figures, it has also shown the same zeal in mocking Christianity or other west. Infact, the magazine had fired one of its cartoonist for an 'anti-semitic' depiction of Jean Sarkozy, son to then French president, Nicholas Sarkozy. Yet the french authorities saw nothing wrong in allowing the magazine republish the controversial caricatured cartoons of Prophet Muhammed release by a Danish magazine years back. Perhaps it may be of interest to know that Magazine has been the recipient of violent attacks in the past, and at numerous times has had to operate under tight security and anonymous it because of similar islamophobic depictions.
What we witness here is a case of ethnocentrism, the idea that one's cultural values and beliefs are superior to that of others. While the editors at Charlie Hebdo saw is as a necessity to protect the 'sacredness' of western symbols and champion causes of anti-semtisim, it has failed to replicate such actions of respect and responsibility towards the symbols of other cultures. Perhaps if the management of the magazine had chosen to adopt an emic interpretation of cultural symbols and beliefs, such drawings would never be published.
It is irresponsible that we engage in free speech on one hand, and then absolve ourselves from the consequences of expressing these freedoms on the other. In a world where the voices of some are more louder and secure than others, advocating free speech is utopic. The channels through which free speech can be expressed has been auctioned off to the highest bidder. Freedom of speech becomes what the most powerful defines as free speech. This is why the United States sees nothing wrong in producing a movie which depicts the assassination of the North Korean president, but ignores issues questioning it's foreign policies and wars abroad.
Freedom of speech is not a placard we raise to press our own interests to the exclusion of others. It is a neutral field in which all parties can stake their claims, the execution of which demands responsibilities. Respect for varied cultures, beliefs and values is essential in freedom of speech. Failure to execute this throws a society into anarchy and totalitarianism. Those castigating the actions of the gunmen who killed the journalists have not really done justice to the scenario. The current global structures of free speech which espouses the supremacy of one race over others only fuels amber's of hate in the world. If freedom of speech is expressed in such ways, then we should accord the other groups a right to express their grievances. The murders of Charlie Hedbo cartoonists was uncalled for, but so were their satirical cartoons. Perhaps if one section of the French society had chosen to be responsible, it would have prevented a catalogue of irresponsible reactions. Freedom of speech does not guarantee freedom after speech, it is conscious collective responsibility that does.
