Nice point...May be they just calculate all students admitted newly, irrespective of whether it is into first or second year..Read new

No, this was the list of students admitted into 100l through jamb and o'level results and she should have qualified on merit if the o'level results which i'm just getting to see were actually what was computed which mind you, it wasn't

Phi001:
I think the total sum of students admitted both from jamb/direct entry was 100.
53 from jamb, 47 from A levels...

My point is that A levels go directly to 200l not 100l, 100l admissions is strictly o'levels

Oluwapresley:
dude, chk it again. physics was repeated twice. prof is right. summation is 45

Then it should be 45/56 not 45/64

thinkative:
regarding the ranking. she ranked 103 among the jambites. 100 students were admitted in all for medicine. but those 100 were not all jambites. direct entry admissions were included. ur logic here does not take the direct entries into consideration.

and I don't think its nice to call the provost names. he should be applauded for showing concern (if its really is true that the reply is from him). most university dons I know wouldn't care a hoot cos they know there's nothing anyone can do about it in this Godforsaken country!

I think direct entry should be into 200l not 100l or has that changed? correct me if i'm wrong

Bros, the ethnic diversity in the west is greater, for sure...There are more easterners, northerners etc in eastern and northern schools than there are westerners in western schools..

In lagos and U.I yes and to a much lesser extent O.A.U but the rest are largely monoethnic and it is not because of dearth of applications from other ethnic groups, Unillorin is a point in case and this isn't limited to the southwest alone, in the north aside A.B.U the rest are same and that is largely the case in the southeast so i wouldn't even vouch for any school there, Uniben stands out in this case and it is reflected in the number of applications they get from all over Nigeria which is second only to Unillorin for obvious reasons, other schools may have sprinklings of ethnic diversity but not at a level which give it statistical significance and bring notice of it to the forefront.

I as a niger deltan from delta state has equal chances of gaining admission into uniben with you and an edo indegene from benin city in any given course on merit, this is my argument

thinkative:
I make bold to say the ethnic diversity in schools in the west is far greater than it is in other parts of the country.
I can reel out names of popular people of other tribes that schooled in the west.
check OAU's list and you would see lots of people from different tribes in Nigeria. even foreigners.

a brain is too precious a gift to waste

That was in the 80's and early 90's when they retained true federal character but that is no more, I have attended lectures in southwestern university where lectures were given in english with a smattering of yoruba and i felt the odd man out due to language differences! Feel free to disagree of course

soletar:
I am impressed with the prompt and detailed response of OAU.

A lot of folks just blindly commented in the morning and they still insist on arguing with the facts provided.

The young girl just was unlucky, though it's still likely some undeserving students would slip through the cracks and get admitted by nepotism.

Those still arguing OAU should have still gone ahead to give her admission just are not ready to face the facts provided here.

Good luck to the girl

FACT:- an error deliberate or otherwise was made in compiling her o'level results

45/64 isn't the same thing as 50/64 the difference is worth about 4%age points

teamv:
too bad a deltan can get admitted into oau except via merit list next time try uniben or delsu girl

Merit alone should've gotten her admission into O.A.U as she scored higher than their initial cut of mark!

There is a reason why UNIBEN is the second most applied to uni in Nigeria after Unillorin, because UNIBEN don't taint their merit list/candidacy with tribalism

Going by the scores pasted there the girls score totals 76.7 which just falls barely shy of the 77% cut of mark And that is because her o'level scores total 47/64 as against 45/64 as posted here totalling (73.4+80)/200

So unless many others scored higher than this, they should come up with a different lie!


MODIFIED!!

Its actually 50/64 for her o'levels sef making it 78.1% which when added to 80% and divided by 2 gives us approximately 79% and with an acclaimed cut of mark of 77% what other argument is the person who made this defence making?

Guykhena:
*phew* good riddance to bad rubbish.
It seems I really hit a nerve,hehehe(next time you'll learn to mind your business instead of indulging in things you know nothing about).

Go jerk-off with your DC Logo ,fanboy

Bye Felicia,don't let the door hit your vag.ina on your way out.

Civility breeds civility

There's no need to give offence and bandy insults here, we're all here to be educated, debate and have fun. Let's be friends please

Guykhena:
Gosh,,,*sighs heavily*
I take it reading isn't your strongest suit?

The latter is more understandable to people who are clueless on what the character entails(sadly this is where you fall under).
Understand that the live action versions are like a piece of sand particles compared to the sandhill of the comics.
And this is a match up battle,which can only be judged fairly when both are analysed from the same ground where they are both fulfilled(comics) than the impartial state of live action(try reading all the comments in page 1 and see where I dealt with this),where one character has more screentime and understanding to the audience than the other. Causing you to exhibit the ignorance of the abilities of Hawkeye due to the incomplete version you've seen,and the 4 good seasons(23 episodes each) of Green Arrow. See you already know almost everything about Green Arrow,but for Hawkeye you're clueless,so your judgment holds no ground for this match up in the eyes of the law.

Hope you understand now? It will really be a bummer if you don't ..

It will help if you don't come of always so superior in your explanations, approach it like a teacher teaching a difficult student

Merveille:
is it not what is shown on the comic book, thats what is acted on the film. Comic books are more of writting, while the films are meant elaborate more on what is written. Ok answer this question: between what is written and what is seen with you two eyes, which one is more understandable?

Since you're a neutral like me let me help you out!

The comic books are the cannon i.e the bible of all the characters

The tv series and movies are just mere adaptations, what you see on tv is limited by technology, budget and subject to creative interference of the directors

The real characters in their true natures are in the comic books and to a close extent their animated series.

For example the thor on tv is simply put a wimp, the real thor on the other hand

Posman:
thanos being a rip off of darkseid is a well known fact, I dnt know y ur trying to make it seem it isn't

It is not well known to me

Educate me on how the mad titan can be said to be a rip of of the ruler of apokolypse

CzarRex:
lies marvel fanboys use to deceive themselves,really namor aquaman is even popular than namor himself



spiderman is definitely popular than wonder woman but not superman and batman,dude go,do more research b4 u talk

I think it depends on the generation

To the comic fanboys supes (not supes and batsy) will be more popular but to fanmen like me it would be spiderman and wolverine

CzarRex:
so who's the most popular superhero if not superman,even if u remove superman from the list, batman takes the title of the most popular superhero,sorry no marvel character is as popular as this two

Spiderman is the first comic super hero i fell in love with as a kid and that theme song

Next was birdman! Who owns that one sef?

Superman came later but it was still a blast!

I only knew superman because i had comic books but it was spiderman that was on screen, anyway, at least in Nigeria in the early 90's

CzarRex:
...hehehe,look at marvel fanboys jubilating all over thread like they just won an Olympic medal...lemme start!

oooops,did I fail to mention that marvel tried on 3 occasions to copy the most popular and best superhero on earth SUPERMAN all to no avail...every alternate version of superman in the DC are even popular than the 3 marvel rip offs combined together

but its not easy to copy sha,marvel I hail ohh

oya marvel guys Coman defend yaselves
guykhena
mjbolt
shittaakeem

lemme call my ogas in DC

tonyspike
minemrys
kryptonian1987

Seriously?
How can thanos be a rip of of darkseid and hulk of grundy?
Just because you want a long list doesn't mean you shouldn't use character abilities/flaws to determine similarities abeg edit your list jare! Its offensive to me as a comic lover! Any character that is a rip of must have near similar powers and weaknesses to the original
Also it should interest all of us to know many character developers and writers worked for both companies at different points in time and created similar characters to ones they created for their previous employers when working at their rivals

Holuwaferanmi:
I discover there's no fact here


and based on cinematic view


I give the win to GA


because you all have not stated anypoint


in the next matchup please state points

If you give it to GA then you should disqualify yourself from moderating!
The purpose of this thread is to give logical arguments as to why any particular character would win a matchup, just as is done in a law court, guykhena made a better and far mor logically superior argument foe HE and as such he should win or is this thread a DC vs Marvel popularity contest?

Nixiepie:
to me,I dnt find this movie interesting one bit,it's so slow and too many characters ,and adult scenes which makes it boring

Followers of this series like me are fanatic about it and if not for the fun setting of this conversation you coulda been lynched
So fair warning, GOT is a religion! Don't blaspheme about it but since you're about to become a convert!
Welcome in advance sister Nixipie

Mr Tikare Danjuma (a Niger Delta son) is not the same person as T.Y. Danjuma (the retired general)


Niger Delta Liberation Force Endorses Tikari’s Appointment

TY Danjuma denies any role in Niger Delta programme

I hope you're right about a different identity! The similarity in their names is too close to avoid suspicion! Why will a true niger deltan have danjuma as surname?

Ewomazinot:
The violence is between them

jah abednego!! (@ ur profile pic)
Omote you're carried

ISpiksDaTroof:
Maybe because the Niger-Deltans previously trusted with the job all ended up being criminals?

And danjuma isn't a criminal right?

Shameless Thief, Elelwon, Oleeeeeee!!

Are you still making noise?

aademola11:
Ibori is in no way equal to Tinubu, He (Ibori) is for Niger Delta, while Tinubu is for Nigeria.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha!!!

Oh lawd! Save us from shishah befuddled afonja's

Tinubu to ibori is like chicken to eagle

The chicken is only gallant when the eagle isn't in the air!

That two presidents went to the extreme to remove him from the political scene should tell you all , if you think amaechi and wike and gladiators, wait and see......

Let buhari and the efcc huff and puff but soon as the ogidigbogbo one of africa gives the go ahead and shuts down the oil industry, they'll come negotiating
Who no go no know

Watch and see, watch and learn!

Yes ibori is a criminal, just he's our own criminal! Face your jagaban of lagos a.k.a ludo player forming chesslord! the real chesslord is back and he's as uncompromising as ever!

Niger Delta Reconciliation Council, NDRC, has
lauded President Muhammadu Buhari on the
choice of Mr. Tikare T. Y. Danjuma as Coordinator
of Niger Delta Waterways Security.
A statement in Bomadi by Ramson Erebor and
Oweilayefa Ekrika, President and Secretary of
NDRC, respectively, described the appointment of
Mr. Danjuma as “the right man for the job and
suitable for the task of providing waterways
security in the region.”
NDRC said: “Mr. Tikare T. Y. Danjuma is a bridge-
builder, social engineer, grassroots mobilization
expert and a humble achiever,” adding that NDRC,
through its peace ambassadors, would support him
to end conflicts, piracy and pipeline vandalism in
the Niger Delta.

So the problem was never that GEJ created a Niger delta waterways security portfolio and gave it to individuals like tompolo and other local players to benefit from, the problem was that it wasn't given to a northerner! Now that a northerner has been put in charge all the silly southerners who were acting aggravated over the so called "empowerment of militants" have lost their voices and are feigning deafness and blindness! We're keeping tabs as watchful Niger Deltans and there will be an accounting for this disregard someday soon!

And to all the Niger Deltans that collaborated because they felt they were not benefiting enough, clap for yourselves..... Remember the story of the child who threw away his mothers pot of soup in anger because he/she felt their meat wasn't big enough? You'll starve like that child too.

Sorry! I didn't see any other way to vent my frustration on this forum

babooshka:
just listen 2 urself. Cut him some slack dat he had a ryt 2 steal, and contribute 2 this recession dat we're all facing. He might not be d only one, but he's a good starting point. If we cut them all slacks like u r implying by extension, cos each person caught is not d only one, who then answers 4 d corruption U?

Are you high on fermented gworro?


Contributed to what recession?

Oh i see!

The same way thief-nubu, fashola and ambode did/are doing by fleecing lagos abi?
The same way babachir did by cutting grass for N500mill and buratai by saving $200mill in four years from his military salary by waving a wand to multiply it abi? The same way buhari collected his statutory allocations as a former H.O.S in cash and kind from dasuki's office of the N.S.A abi?

I get your point now

Hypocrisy is when afonja's who praise thief-nubu and the minister of darkness after bleeding and fleecing lagos into perennial indebtedness, mai gworo's who vouch for buratai's honesty come here to call ibori a thief! of course he is a thief! Which Nigerian politrickcian isn't?

But asides being a thief, he is so much more to us deltans! He represents who we are when faced with opposition! Savvy, unyielding and daring!

While your past sins still dog you ibori, you're still a man of the grassroots, take your punishments in typical strong willed fashion and work with the PDP in the south-south and show these ass-licking reprobates from those other part of Nigerian what a typical south southerner will do when confronted! The south west has rolled over, the south east is faltering, we the south southerners will show these fulanis that there is steel and will in our backbones!

Chai! But you should never have opposed one of your own Jonathan! I regret that on your behalf! How i wish you two could work together! It would warm our hearts immensely

[quote author=kITATITA post=52154602][/quote]Oh! So it is "should go" now?

The U.S and U.K templates are no longer worthy as references anymore right?

Why don't you just admit you're a liar pretending to have knowledge on issues he/she knows abso-fucking-lutely nothing about?

How about a little honesty from you?

We oppose buhari same way we oppose the orange orang-utan because its a moral obligation for good people to resist and oppose evil!
Let that sink into your befuddled skull

And before you start spewing rants on tribalism, south yeast and what not, i am south southern and i whole heartedly supported yar-adua as did other south easterners and south southerners! We would have gladly worked with another (significantly detribalised) northerner but time and again we have given mai gworo of daura the opportunity to prove our assumptions on him wrong and time and again he has failed us and been very vocal and unrepentant about it!
So why should anybody buy into this charade and window dressing visit of his?

kITATITA:
Truth is, as was also evident in the last presidential elections in the US, candidates SNF their aides and surrogates say things , either to promote their principals or bring down his opponents.

Once elections are over, they are simply over. The nation comes together and move on.
Not in Nigeria. Many political naiveties, still bury their heads in the heaps of the whole gamut of the campaign trash, with still so much passion and hate.
We have had an election in this country, and as they say all is fair in love and war. The elections have been over for nearly 2years now. People should go back to their jobs or find something else to do till 2019. As for me its over, I am done. Period....Dr. Doyin Okupe

Have you come to the states recently?
Come together indeed!
And what about the brexit fallout? Are brits just rolling over for that one too?
Kids forming i too know and making wrong assumptions to fit their narrative

Buhari the jihadist like the orange cheeto is unfit to hold power!
I don't know who is more divisive between the two reprobates sef!

My dear, next time apply to Uniben!

At least the quota taken on merit is not tainted by tribalism as is obtained in southwestern, southeastern and northern schools, when they take you on merit, tribe plays no role in it

At least that is how it was last i checked a couple of years ago, I don't know about now and i pray they haven't changed!

lordizak:
Many Nigerians eat pork, how many demands it? you see beef, goat and ram in almost all restaurants, hotels and everywhere. Stop making an utter fool of yourself, i live in the north and sometimes take survey. this time of the year, the cattle hardly find pasture to graze. building ranches will generate income for government.

I eat pork in large volumes and so do many people I know so your survey is non inclusive and unrepresentative of the country and people consume garri a lot so can the military start farming cassava to make a profit for the government too? Who's the fool now?
And what about that battalion dedicated to hunting goat and chicken thieves too while you're planting cassava via the army?
Rubbish! You fulani's are many times too stupeed to be in the same country with the rest of us and worse yet, you make no attempts to cure your stupidity!
