NB: I am neither associated with Dr.Ramon Adedoyin nor Ile-ife. I only saw his name on another thread as being wanted by Ife people and I post his profile.

A distinguished educationist and notable business mogul, Chief, (Dr.) Ramon Adegoke Adedoyin could best be described as a role model worthy of being emulated by many Nigerians.

Chief (Dr.) R.A Adedoyin could also be described as one of the foremost educationists in Nigeria whose singular effort has contributed immensely in providing Nigerians especially the youths with solid education which is indispensable for social and economic empowerment.

As an educationalist, he is a great moulder and builder of worthy characters thereby contributing tremendously to the transformation of the society. He radiates the ideals of morality, decency, decorum, God-fearingness, probity, accountability, hardworking and inspiration to management.

He is also a man of creative ingenuity, great vision, managerial acumen, indefatigable spirit, irrepressible courage whose astute business initiatives have made him a success in every sphere of his life.

He learnt the virtues of humility and respect for humanity in his early life at Maha-Had Islamic foundation, Isale Alfa, Ibadan in 1960.

His formal education however started in Ansar-Islam Primary School in Ile-Ife (1961-1969). He attended Oduduwa College Ile-Ife (1970-1974), and Muslim Grammar School, Odinjo, Ibadan (1975-1976). Also he gained admission to the then University of Ife, now Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife (GREAT IFE) and he graduated in 1983 with an honours degree in Mathematics Education.

Dr. Adedoyin also has Masters and Doctorate Degrees in Mathematics and Education from All Saint University of America, New York, United States of America.

His great love for education prompted him to establish the Universal Tutorial College, Ile-Ife as soon as he left the University in the 1980's when all his mates were running after white collars jobs in the corridors of powers.

The Polytechnic, Ile-Ife (formerly Universal College of Technology) is today described as one of the fastest growing Tertiary Institutions in the country (Nigeria) offering courses in Accountancy, Business Administration, Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mass Communication, Statistics and Catering and Hotel Management both at the National Diploma and Higher National Diploma levels.

A lover of fun and tourism, Dr Adedoyin ventured into the hospitality business when he established the 5-star Hilton hotels, Ile-Ife which today is regarded as one of the best hotels in Osun State (Nigeria).The hotel which is located in the Parakin lay out of Ile- Ife has played host to many great Nigerians who have had course to visit the cradle of the Yorubas.

In the field of community development, Chief Adedoyin has made monumental contributions to the development of Ile- Ife community in particular and the society in general. He is a great philanthropist who has been giving scholarship and awards to outstanding students especially those from indigent background.

He has made appreciable donations to charity services; he has contributed a lot to the upliftment of the dignity of life and moral values. He is a great defender of humanity, a vanguard of peace, order, justice and equity.

It was in recognition of his gallantly that he was conferred with the chieftaincy titles of Balogun of Parakin Eleyele Community, Ile-Ife and Maye of Ife by His Imperial Majesty, Oba Okunade Sijuade, the Ooni of Ife.

In recognition of his outstanding and tremendous contributions to community development and the Nigerian project, he was also honoured by the Ife Central Local Government through the naming of the popular NITEL road to be known as Dr. Ramon Adedoyin way. The Ife Development Board also bestowed on him ‘The Best Ife Son’ Award during a recent Ife Day celebrations.

To his collosal tracks are chains of businesses and investments in Ile-Ife, Lagos, Abuja and the United States of America. Some of these include:

Our Saviours Institute of America Inc. New York, Our Saviours Tours and Visitors Company of America Inc., The Polytechnic, Ile-Ife, Osun State, Hilton Hotels, Ile-Ife, Ray Power Guards (Security Outfit) Lagos and Abuja and of course the singular brain behind the establishment of Oduduwa University, Ipetumodu Ife NLG, Osun State, Nigeria.

Chief (Dr.) R.A Adedoyin is a complete detribalised Nigeria, a paragon of Pan- Nigerians which is evident in his recruitment of workers in his various establishments.

In his home life, Dr Adedoyin is no less a success. He is happily married to a devoted wife; Chief (Mrs.) Iyabo Adedoyin and they are both blessed with wonderful children.

At his leisure, he plays Table-Tennis, discusses Politics and loves dancing.

And if I'm not brabus, or a man, nor seen/spoken to him, may disaster of great proportion befall everyone( and their families )who called be brabus.

I live my life to fight for the underdogs, I hate it when a downed person is kicked and ganged up against.

What if you are? You forgot to mention that!!!
See the way you keep exposing yourself.

I pity your empty head



Do good for good to come your way

My candid advise is this: Nothing good come easy. Do you expect to come out of Law school and start earning millions? Hell no!!!
It is step by step. As someone earlier advised, Check your CV again, keep applying for jobs anywhere they are available, if you have the opportunity, do professional exams/certifications.
Starting with a small law firm is not bad. You gain experience with this while looking for better opportunity.
Also note that a lawyer can also be re-qualify as HR executives, Technical Advisors hence look out for ways to diversify.

Wish you good luck

Do good for good to come your way.

Another poor journalism.
Lacks facts
Lack information
Poor investigation

According to Vladmir Lenin: A lie told often enough becomes the truth.

Corruption has eaten too much into our marrows that it is now considered the right thing.
Immorality is being praised while morals are being frowned at
Stealing is not corruption

Society is on the verge because we see nothing wrong in doing the wrong thing
We harbor wrong doers, evildoers and praise them.

Do good so that good come your way.

The battle for defence of the Naira value has widened, affecting existing withdrawal limits on Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) and foreign transactions on all existing Naira debit cards (ATM cards).
atm2In the new arrangement, all ATMs that were hitherto enabled for domestic and foreign transactions have been restructured to limit Naira cash withdrawal at ATMs to N60,000 per day while foreign currency is $300 per day. Hitherto, the domestic withdrawal limit was N150,000 per day.
The new arrangement has separated traditional ATM from MasterCard credit card where the former has now been deactivated and can no longer be used for transactions abroad. Hitherto, a single ATM card serves for transactions for both domestic and abroad.
Also, the restructured cards now have spending limits on POS/eCommerce (online shopping) pegged at $300 (about N60,000) per day. Before this, the limit was N2 million per day.
In the new arrangement, a bank customer with multiple debit cards (ATM cards), only the one linked to the primary transactional account will be enabled for use abroad. Hitherto, such customers could transact with any of the cards that is funded.
However, banks are putting in place alternatives in these adjustments to address the concern of customers who are now being directed by their banks to reapply for a new card arrangement to suit their purposes.
For instance, Standard Chartered Bank has asked its customers to request a complementary ATM card for domestic use only so that the original N150,000 daily cash withdrawal limit can be restored and also reactivate POS/online purchase limit of N2 million per day.
The bank also required their customers to apply for a foreign currency denominated ATM linked to domiciliary account which would be enabled with no daily or annual international transaction limits.
Earlier, Guaranty Trust Bank Plc had informed its customers of its decision to reduce the daily international spending limit on their Naira MasterCard to $300 with effect from yesterday.
In a communication to the customers, the bank explained: “In view of the increased difficulty in sourcing foreign currency to settle international transactions on Naira MasterCards, we have reduced the daily international spending limit on your Naira MasterCard to $300.This means that you can only spend up to $300 daily when using your GTBank Naira MasterCard for international payments via POS and online.
“You will, however, continue to have the option of paying for medical bills, school fees, mortgages and credit cards using Form A, as these are eligible transactions for foreign currency. Simply visit any GTBank branch to complete a Form A along with the required documents to make these payments.”
These developments were coming on the heels of Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) statement on Sunday that all legitimate requests for foreign currency for eligible transactions, normally referred to as “invisibles,” such as remittances for school fees, student maintenance allowances, BTA, PTA, medical and other eligible transactions, shall be fully met at the official/interbank exchange rate.
A statement from the CBN added that already all the legitimate demands for such transactions through recognised channels have so far been fully met by CBN.
The statement stated: “The CBN hereby directs all authorised dealers in foreign exchange in Nigeria to henceforth treat as top priority all legitimate demand for foreign exchange for eligible transactions.
“The CBN once again advises individuals that wish to source foreign currency for such eligible transactions to approach their banks with their legitimate demand as the CBN has made adequate provisions of foreign currency for all such legitimate and eligible purposes.
“Furthermore, holders of Naira denominated debit and credit cards shall continue to have access to the use of their cards at ATMs in any part of the world but subject to the annual limit of $50,000. ATM withdraws shall continue to be a maximum of $300 per day.”

The West African Examinations Council has withheld the May/June 2015 West African Senior School Certificate Examination results of hundreds of candidates from 13 states in the country.

This comes as the council stated that only 616, 370 candidates obtained credit in five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics. The candidates represented 38.68 per cent of the candidates who sat for the examination.

One million, five hundred and ninety-three thousand and four hundred and forty-two candidates, comprising 864,096 males and 729,346 females, sat for the examination.

The WAEC Head of National Office, Mr. Charles Eguridu, made this known on Monday while releasing the result of the May/June 2015 WASSCE in Lagos.

He also announced that 118,101 candidates had their results withheld for alleged involvement in examination malpractice.

He explained, “Of the total number of candidates that sat the examination, 758,849 candidates, representing 47.62 per cent obtained six credits and above; 949,862 candidates, representing 59.61 per cent obtained five credits and above, while 1,114,988 candidates, representing 69.97 per cent obtained credit and above in four subjects.

“In addition, 1,295,915 candidates, representing 78.81 per cent obtained credit and above in three subjects, while 1,376,743 candidates, representing 86.40 per cent obtained credit and above in two subjects. However, 616,370 candidates, representing 38.68 per cent, obtained credit in five subjects and above, including English Language and Mathematics.”

To gain admission to the nation’s university, a candidate is expected to obtain credit in five subjects, including English and Mathematics

On the debtor states, the council alleged that they did not pay their candidates’ examination registration fees.

He, however, did not name the 13 debtor states.

The affected candidates, mainly government-sponsored candidates, Eguridu said, would only have their results if their states showed enough commitment to offsetting the debts.

The HNO said, “After reviewing the situation, the council has decided that the results of government-sponsored candidates of indebted states would be released if such states endeavour to produce bank guarantees, so that the council will be assured that the fees will be paid. This decision is in appreciation of the general prevailing economic challenges in the country, and in order not to jeopardise the educational careers of the candidates of the indebted states.”

Eguridu, who urged candidates to check their results on Tuesday, noted that public schools whose results were not on the council’s website should consider it to mean that their states were indebted to WAEC.

The council had, two weeks ago, threatened to withhold the results, claiming that 19 states owed it about N4bn debts arising from the examination registration fees.

Meanwhile, the Education Rights Campaign has condemned the West African Examination Council’s decision to withhold results of candidates from states that have defaulted on the body’s registration fees.

The ERC National Coordinator, Mr. Taiwo Soweto, in a statement in Lagos on Monday, described the directive as ‘insensitive’ and called on the examination body to reverse its decision immediately.

According to the group, withholding the results of candidates from affected states would be an ethical violation of the provisions of the Child Right Act 2003.

The statement read, “As a public institution, WAEC is obligated by the Child Right Act (2003) to make the best interest of the child the paramount consideration in all actions.

Now I know why OAU was closed!!!

RIP to the King.

riah:
@ ANBAKO @ zandora i thank you both so much you have been very helpful. i will go straight ahead and begin my application. i have been burdened by not knowing, now i do. thank u so much

Glad to be of help Madam.
Good luck with your application

Do not hesitate to come here for support.
A lot of experience, smart and supportive people here.


Do good for good to come your way

riah:
@ ANBAKO, yes my husband intends writing ielts an so do i.

@ zandora, if my husband loses his permanent reaiency status as the primary applicant, does that affect the rest of us? will it stop our extension or citizenship? if yes please tell me i i should apply then as the principal applicant while he applies as spouse. although his field and experience will earn strong points and it will give us an upper hand in the pool.

please let me know soonest. thanks a whole lot

please let me know

If your hubby looses his PR status, I don't think that will affect you. The reason is that my colleague relocated to Canada with his family in 2010. He did not stay because he was not ready to leave his job here but was visiting once in a while. This year his wife and children got their citizenship and passport. Although he has relocated finally last year. I think if citizenship depends on the the PA, they should not have given his wife and kids citizenship.

My personal thought. Think of it what if the someone's partner died or divorce (God forbid bad thing)....that does not make them ineligible for citizenship.

Good luck

riah:
@ ANBAKO, thank you very much for your express response. I am at a dilema though because i dont think it will be possible for my husband to be in canada for up to two years due to the nature of his job, is there anything i can do about this?

You didnt say which of my certiicates i should send to WES.

Everything is possible if your husband and you wants. The 2 years must not be continuous. It may be 1 month, 2 months, 3 weeks, 6 months
I am also a Mechanical Engineer with also an American company based in Nigeria so I understand concern.

You will also need to evaluate your Masters and Bachelors degree certificates to get extra 10 points.

Has your hubby written IELTS?
Do you intend writing IELTS too - that gives extra 20 points
use the link below to estimate your points

@ solomonwis, i recently decided to relocate with my daughters to canada, even though my husband willbe the principal applicant, he has no inyentions of staying put due to thw fact that he has a very good job with exxonmobil here in Nigeria. I have a masters degree from the university of sunderland Uk and my first degree is from ABU zaria.

My questions are
1) will my husbands intentions to stay back marr our chances of relocating with the federal skill workers program? he is a mechanical engineer while am a communications manager

2) which of my certificates do i send forth for ECA

I shall anticipate ypur replies, this thread has enlightened me greatly. thank u

Firstly the conditions that need to be met for you to renew you PR status after expiration is that PR holder must be in Canada for a total of 2 years within the 5 years. That is the only constrain given your hubby is ready to the needful for you all to get PR.

Since your hubby is PA, then at least, he need to send in his Post secondary certificates for ECA. If you want to get extra point to complement his, then you need to do same for yourself.

I think WES is the organization with the best cycle time (Please correct me if I am wrong)

CC Solomonwis and other ogas in the house

To ensure transparency and accountability in the operations of public accounts, Muhammadu Buhari has ordered the Ministries, Departments or Agencies, MDAs, under the Federal Government to run a Treasury Single Account, TSA, which will be domiciled at the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN.
Also affected by the directive were Foreign Missions,Teaching Hospitals, Medical Centres, Federal Tertiary Institutions. Agencies like the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Security and Exchange Commission SEC, Corporate Affairs Commission CAC, Nigeria Ports Authority, NPA, Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria, FAAN.
Others are NCAA, NIMASA, NDIC, NSC, NNPC, FIRS, NCS, MMSD, DPR. President Buhari’s directive is drawn from section 80 of the 1999 Constitution. The section 80 (1) reads:
All revenues or other moneys raised or received by the Federation (not being revenues or other moneys payable under this Constitution or any Act of the National Assembly into any other public fund of the Federation established for a specific purpose) shall be paid into and form one Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation.
(2) No moneys shall be withdrawn from the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation except to meet expenditure that is charged upon the fund by this Constitution or where the issue of those moneys has been authorised by an Appropriation Act, Supplementary Appropriation Act or an Act passed in pursuance of section 81 of this Constitution.
(3) No moneys shall be withdrawn from any public fund of the Federation, other than the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation, unless the issue of those moneys has been authorised by an Act of the National Assembly.

The New Port Harcourt Refining Company, PHRC 2, is now ready for the production of more premium motor spirit, PMS, popularly called petrol, and will reduce fuel import by 40 per cent when fully operational.
When the FCCUs are re-streamed, the refinery will be working at 95 per cent of its 150,000 barrels per day capacity, it is expected that petrol importation will reduce.
This was disclosed to journalists, weekend, by Chrome Oil Services, a member of the Chrome Group, one of the three contractors, handling the phased rehabilitation of the refinery.
Recall that Vanguard Sweetcrude had exclusively reported last week that the four Nigerian refineries are weak in petrol production and high in fuel oils because the FCCUs were still undergoing rehabilitation.
The Project Manager, Chrome Oil Services, Mr. Bombey Adigbara, said: “The job on the FCCUs is about 98 percent completed and by next weekend, we will hand over and the FCCUs will be re-streamed and the refinery will be working at about 95 percent of its throughput.
“Three companies participated in this phased works and COS is the first, and we are still doing the work. At the moment, the refinery has started preliminary production, which means that it is Unit 1 that is producing.
“The Unit 3 is being handled by Chrome, and by the end of next week, we will hand over the plant and the FCCs will be streamed. When this is done, we will start experiencing high level of PMS production in Nigeria. So, all the critical jobs are being done by us.”
He disclosed that there are three major contractors handling the ongoing phased rehabilitation of PHRC, namely Chrome, DKJ/ITC, and DBM.
According to him, “The FCC is 98 per cent completed. The FCC has a lot of critical components and it is also vendor specific, so you have to have a lot of experience to work in that place. We have achieved 98 per cent and when it comes up you will have a reduction in the importation of PMS.”
Chrome capacity
Adigbara also dismissed widespread speculations about the capacity of Chrome Oil Services to execute refinery TAM, saying before the 1999/2000 TAM for PHRC, Chrome had carried out a number of works for the Kaduna and Warri refineries as well as the Indorama Elema Petrochemical Company.
Besides, he noted, Chrome had remained at PHRC since the 2000 TAM till date, offering intervention services, adding that in 2015 alone, Chrome had dome more than 50 jobs in the refinery to keep it running.
Feedstock/swap agreements
Also speaking, Executive Chairman, Chrome Group, Sir Emeka Offor, noted that the problem with the refineries is not just about TAM, which should be done every two years, but also with the lack of crude supply following government’s swap and offshore processing agreement, OPA.
According to him, “the issue with the refinery is not only TAM but lack of feedstock to sustain their operations. The cost of TAM is very high and if you finish TAM and no feedstock then it is not economical.”
He also added that pipelines vandalism came to compound the issues, saying: “Federal Government and NNPC must ensure adequate supervision of the pipelines to reduce vandalism to the barest levels.”
