After the meeting of Deans held
on the 2nd of November, 2015. It
is obvious that the admission list
will be released sooner than we
can imagine. Many of the Deans
complained of over-shooting the stipulated quota given to them
by the school management. Total
of 4,802 names was collated and
endorsed. Over 4, 523 names
were rejected in total by all the
faculties especially from Arts (1,563) and sciences(1,321). The
most affected DE aspirants came
from Public Administration with
only 56 admitted DE aspirants
from over 698 admission seekers.
Many will rejoice and celebrate. You and those that you know
shall also celebrate. That's an update I got from the
Secretary to the Dean I know. She
actually posted it on facebook so I
decided to share with you guys.

You actually think the 'secretary to a dean' will post this kinda information on admission on Facebook??


Lol...OAU doesn't operate that way...I beg to say

Hyper-spiced food with lots of beef =taste bud workload..lol but i wouldn't know since men differ

Mind not my taste buds...mine is under voluntary control....and it sure knows you're just starting...

Speechless3:
Mouthful! I will learn not to act on that sick feeling.

Thank you so much i hope to be a great cook someday plus will be honoured to have you as ma guest

And me tootoo

I won't mind the 'hyper-spices'...so far it's saturated with lots of beef[color=#990000][/color]

bilulu:

Baba...why you too dey lie like this?


Haba

Light getting worse??.
....that's alien to me. I actually think the light's far better...at least here in Abuja

Speechless3:
Okay dear

I do house chores. And the dishes too. I can cook every other meal..well not all in the world.

Even though i dont enjoy cooking soup, which is bad in itself, my caring mum has somehow compounded the wahala. She has taken it upon herself to be in charge of cooking soup till we all part.

All those times i tried and failed were when i had the opportunity to live alone for a while.

Pressure your mum to give you the chance to cook for ur family. In this clime of ours, a good soup/meal cooking prowess is indispensable to a healthy marital relationship.


M a male, but I remember- while I was still a teen- how my mum prepared timetable for cooking for us.


Suffice to say it's a blessing now.



Lol...on a lighter mode... Do all the suggestions given by the posters above...or u start looking for a man who doesn't care to prepare the soup, for a husband

Seven year + three years of strike (ASUU, ARD, NMA, JOHESU etc) = Ten Years!!

God dey o

A friend of mine got into Medicine in 2007(in oau oo) and graduated in 2014 despite all the strikes and slowness of oau, he spent 6yrs, 9months. So, how did you fathom 3yrs of strike??...



I think it's time we stopped all this exaggeration

There is no effective fire department in the big city of Lagos. That is a big shame! What more can I say?! It is time to sue the fire department and the Lagos state government for neglecting the security of properties and lives in that city. What is going on in that country?

I don't know when I am going to stop crying for the deplorable state of the nation.

Oga...cry will not resolve this issue o

We need to take to the street one of these days....but on a serious note...I don't even trust the youths

Suggestion - In +100 pages we've talked about our progress so far, planned projects and those making us proud in the diaspora...
BUT
We still have a lot of problems which I think this thread should basically be about. I think its time we enumerate them and debate on possible suggestions to solving those we have the ability to solve(not necessarily about money).....
Besides Lagos, Oyo & Ogun I'm not so impressed with the rest of SW states, so far they've been developing in a snail pace....
whatwegonnado?

I concurr...there's this level of poverty in the hinterlands...m soo sick of it. What're we gonna do

In the South-Western part of Nigeria, there are some famous tourist sites like the Olumo Rock in Abeokuta, the Ikogosi Warm Springs in Ondo State, the Erin-Ijesha Water falls near Ilesha etc. But there are a few get-away spots that have been developed by local entrepreneurs, which are becoming quite popular with the public.

LA MANGA ILASHE BEACH, LAGOS
One of them is La Manga Villas at Ilashe beach, an idyllic island off the coast of Lagos. It is accessible only by boat and it is right on the Atlantic seashore, with stunning beaches, luxury accommodation and a spectacular view of the ocean.

It is bordered by the Badagry creek and surrounded by luscious and towering coconut palm trees, with just 15 minutes boat ride from Ikoyi and Victoria Island..

INAGBE RESORTS, LAGOS
Inagbe Grand Resorts & Leisure is a natural island with beautiful structures developed by Gran Imperio Resorts Limited, a subsidiary of Gran Imperio Group, a formidable real estate development consortium. The resort is a first of its kind on over 3 million square meter land within a 100 kilometer stretch Island along the Atlantic Ocean.

It is just a 20-minute boat ride away from Victoria Island, within a friendly community rich in culture and history of ancient Lagos Monarchy; It is also home to the Esinmikan Royal Family. The Leisure facility is built on a natural island between the Lagos Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean. According to the Chief Executive Officer of Gran Imperio Group, Mr. Adeyeye Ogunwusi, ‘Explore’ would enable visitors and guests enjoy all the goodies that the city offers with very little financial commitment.

Ogunwusi emphasised the Nigerian component of the project, which he said was almost 100 per cent, stating that homes on the island were built using local raw materials, including the lighting systems like chandeliers that are made by people from the eastern part of the country...

The company, he said has resolved to be buying locally made products as a policy to encourage the growth of local industries. “If Nigerians do not buy locally made products then who will?”

Besides, the chalets, there is a huge hall that can hold 1,500 guests to reception, conferences, seminars and training, workshops, team-bonding events for corporate clients, among others.

Ogunwusi said there are 125-room chalets on the island and that they are still expanding. There are two sections; one by the Lagoon area and the other by the Atlantic Ocean shore line and both carry different price tags. Every chalet and recreational facilities on the island were built in one year, beginning from September last year, he said.

The island is about 15 to 20 minutes boat ride from any jetty on Walter Carrington Avenue, Victoria Island. The Resort is close to Snake Island, and is just a distance of 10km from Lekki and Victoria Island, with an exciting boat ride of less than twenty minutes is the best get-away spot for individuals and families. With proper infrastructure being put in place, the resort will at the end of the day look like a snatch of Vegas in Lagos but with a cultural twist that brings the Nigerian tradition to the forefront with the traditional ambiance of thatched roof and coconut souvenir factory.”

It offers five-star hotel service; 650km floating platform for social outdoor activities; 18 holes golf course; several four chalet rooms with Jacuzzi; beach buggers for racing and other; paint ball shooting; common living room for guests with wide expanse area; swimming pools; productive machines to sustain the luxurious need of guests; and contains 3,000 people on a working day.”

The promoters of the leisure island also incorporated manufacturing into their local content theme. There is a furniture factory which raw materials are grown either on the island or in other communities in the country.

They produce handwoven chairs that are used in top-class hotel lounges and, according to Ogunwusi, it is unfortunate that these hotelier import these chairs but that now that they were being manufactured on the island, “we are very excited that it can be done.
We have been able to train our people to do this very well and we have potential for the export market.” There is a showroom where all the products are displayed.

The raw materials like raffia, rattan and willow, are abundant in the country, particularly on the coastal belt. Foam is also produced in the country by reputable companies.

He said when a palm tree is cut for use in the factory they plant seven, explaining that no part of the palm tree is wasted, particularly from five years upwards.

amokeme:
I opened a thread on matriculation and some people are already talking about school fees, "my school is the best" " they pay so much" " they pay less in my great this and that...
Seriously, you guys should chill! If you are happy in whatever school you are in, you won't be running another school down with your fingers... I'm happy with where I am, and that's why I can never run any school down. Some people need to start respecting other people's opinion and choices.. and to ANEMMA that said Uniben is the best.. ok, I agree it's the best, so what next from here?


Anyways, more,,

Babe...abeg no mind 'em


Those girls look elegant... and the guys...classic

ANEMMA:
This fraudulent Covenant University looks like a scam to me...compare the sch fees structure of what you called a university to GREAT UNIBEN school fees below

UNIBEN SCHOOL FEES SCHEDULE

NON SCIENCES

First Year = ₦46,400
Second Year = ₦12,400
Third Year = ₦12,400
Final Year = ₦12,400

SCIENCES (Including Medical Sciences)
First Year = ₦49,400
Second Year To Final Year = ₦14,400

HOSTEL FEES
₦8,000
Uniben simply UNIBEST

Receive sense...covenant is a private university.

I'm surprised to see what a whole lot of people are posting here. people have lost it! is it so bad in Africa? Africa is only bad when you're poor.

Mister/miss,
Going by ur word; "Africa is only bad when you are poor"
Since some 69% of Nigerians (taking Nigeria as a case study) live under 1$ a day and nearly 85% under 2$ per day...I can absolutely say we are poor.

Africa is bad...no need to window-shop...




That some few people are millionaires is not a reflection of realities among the masses.
