Agriculture › Re: A Leopard-Like Creature Killed In A Public School In Lagos (Photos) by Chiman922(m): 1:26am On Mar 27, 2015 |
19naia: That may be an Ocelot, Its a rare type of dwarf leopard..But its coat pattern is more like a Civet... I could be a rare african Civet.. They never get very big, so that one in the photo may be almost an adult... They are not dangerous to people and should not be killed because of fear...We Need Education of people to know that they are not deadly and that they are the ones in danger of extinction because of people...
Oyan is the name of a type of west african Civet.. This may be the Oyan or related, it has a banded tail and spots somewhat like this one.. They extract musk from them to use in perfume.. Its also known as African Linsang Civet.. I think it is a civet from what I see. It is nowhere near an ocelot. |

[quote author=MizJayne post=31379678][/quote]Stream 2 is more like the second set of Batch A. From the much I know, stream 2 will do their camp at a much later date from the 5th May. The 5th May date for camp is for Stream 1. Once they are done with camp then Stream 2 will be informed of their own camp. But I don't want the stream 2 thing |

I did my own first registration last year with Batch C. Then I used my already existing account to complete the payment this time around via my PC.

Education › Re: Mummy Cried: Nsukka Boy’s Presidential Scholarship Story From London University by Chiman922(m): 2:11pm On Mar 04, 2015 |
Kola4uniadgog: by Chibuike Ugwuoke
As a youngster, I had a dream to study abroad but the truth is, dreams are luxuries that can only be accessed when there is money.
My name is Chibuike Ugwuoke was born and bred in Enugu State twenty-something years ago to a very modest family. Even though I wouldn’t say we were poor because we had neighbours that prayed to live in our condition, I knew schooling abroad was reaching for the stars. We simply couldn’t afford it.
I gained admission to study Computer Science at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka in 2007 and by God’s grace, graduated in 2011 with First Class Honours. It was a challenging experience but helped me become the man I am today.
Last year, I left Nigeria for the first time – to begin my Masters of Science (MSc) program in Information Security at the University College, London (UCL). It wasn’t because my parents had become overnight millionaires but because I was one of two hundred and five (205) graduate students to benefit from the PRESSID (Presidential Scholarship Scheme for Innovation and Development) awardees in 2014.
A senior lecturer at the university informed me about it but I felt it was one of those 419 wayo-wayo scholarship schemes that has become a norm in Universities. Besides, I did not expect the final selection process to be credible. In previous regimes, such things are only awarded to people who are related to a prominent person in the government. Somehow I decided to try my luck and apply but even when I was going for the final test phase in Abuja, a part of me felt I was wasting my time.
I’m here in London, but neither the cold nor the fact that I am again the class representative as I was throughout my undergraduate days has made me fully believe that I am not in dreamland.
Hardwork, determination and resilience helped me graduate with first class honours from the university. My classmates who fondly nicknamed me ‘Modulus’ and other schoolmates I met form part of my network of friends today, as do some of my lecturers. There is no point in criticizing the academic structure of most tertiary institutions in Nigeria because the more we complain and point fingers, the more time we give for the system to decay. Personally, I have decided to be part of the needed change and will become a lecturer when I return.
It is imperative to note that this would not have been possible without God and the Goodluck Jonathan administration that initiated this scheme in 2012. I cannot thank you enough, Mr. President especially for lifting a burden from my parents’ shoulders and for fulfilling the dream of a nobody.
When I was notified that I had gotten the scholarship, the first thing I did was to call my elderly mother and tell her. She cried on the phone and I cried along with her. There are few things in this world that beat the tears of joy of a happy woman. Thank you, Mr. President.

AgapeCharis: For the Guys...
10 THINGS YOU LL REALISE ONCE YOU DECIDE TO SETTLE DOWN
1). #500 na money
2). Swags, looks and Americana accents don't pay bills. No more need to pretend you have money when you don't. You Have To Have It !!!
3). Love is not all and only thing to consider in choosing a wife, contrary to what we thought.
4). In life, what matters is WHO KNOWS YOU and not, WHOM YOU KNOW.
5). Nothing compares to saving good money in the bank.
6). A lady's beauty is in her brains.
7). Relax!... Having Sex would finally be a 'job' that you ll one day be running away from.
8 ) Girls are plenty but wives are scarce.
9). Acting to impress a girlfriend is as useless as the 'ueue' in 'Queue'.
10). That you need God like never before. Nice one |

Literature › The Ode by Chiman922(op): 10:23am On Mar 04, 2015 |
The flute plays, ballads of war battle drums on every door
Young men forget romantic sonnets busy with guns and bayonets
Soon shall be the plaintive dirge when victors, amidst vanquished, emerge
The living relish the victory song the dead gone, heroes unsung
The veterans return in endless ode the rookie consigned to nether-abode
Empty-hearted elegy naught acknowledged in eulogy
The heavens weep for beneath mortals reap a harvest of life-fluid
To mother earth another crimson bath sparing naught in their path
The little boy dances to the ballads with intent to impress the female lads
Ignorant that tomorrow he'll be the object of sorrow
In innocent oblivion he plays but soon will be gone such days
The ballad will birth the dirge the sonnets bow out for the elegy
But the ode shall remain for the warriors for the war for mother earth. |
Literature › FORBIDDEN DREAMS (an Old Poem Of Mine Inspired By Yanni) by Chiman922(op): 10:17am On Mar 04, 2015 |
I just want to use this my old poem to officially welcome myself to nairaland activity after long months on the audience seat
A renegade heart a sudden farewell painful nostalgia for all seasons
Forgotten, the promise to take to hold vows made in whispers
swept away secret vows written on time's winds on the flights of fantasy
Under the twilight moments without time only a memory reflections of passion
Enchantment at first sight the first touch within attraction
Chasing shadows standing in motion a lonely heart without deliverance
Optimystique word-bound so he was until the last moment
Time to let go of all the memories
Forbidden dreams Forgotten yesterdays 1 Like |
