I remember that day. I was in Primary 2. Dad broke the news at home. Mom and we (my siblings) wept profusely (as if we knew anything about the late Okwaraji then).

We all developed hatred for the name Angola. We assumed that the Angolans were responsible for his death. We ensured that the name Angola was expunged from all our books, calendars and maps.

Wow! I was some days old then, I grow up learning different stories like the Indian kill him with JuJu, that a ball turned into lion...myth

I really need to escape from this country that has nothing to do with good news anymore to at least either Canada, Germany, USA, Australia or even France.
Please anybody with useful information should help me.

We can have a serious deal and agreement.

I support what he is saying but I don't support his actions period!

Nick Sears was 17 years old when he helped build a bitcoin mining farm in Dallesport, Washington.
Sears oversees a hydro-powered data center with 4,500 ASICs, all mining for bitcoin.
Nick Sears was 17 when he helped build a bitcoin mining farm in Dallesport, Washington. He was 18 when rules allowed him to buy bitcoin for the first time. And now, at 19, Sears has doubled down on his life as a bitcoin miner, saying "no" to college and "yes" to living in a room inside a data center that houses 4,500 whirling ASICs.

"My room is sound-locked," said Sears of the acoustic retrofitting of his living quarters. "So I can't hear the machines when I close my door, but they are definitely noisy if I have my door open."
The machines generate about 80 decibels of noise apiece — but Sears says he likes being as close to the action as possible. It also beats making the half hour commute each way from his parents' house in White Salmon.

The 19 year-old has spent pretty much every single day for the last two years teaching himself the nuances of how mining machines work – and crucially, how to fix them. He believes his education in soldering and electronics is worth a whole lot more to him than a university degree.

"I don't think about going to college at all, just pursuing further knowledge in the repairs of the miners," continued Sears.

CNBC spoke with multiple miners for this story. Many explained that the allure of mining comes from being able to tangibly grasp the power of bitcoin.

"If you've been to any of these data centers, the first thing you'll notice is just how vast and how impressive they are. They're huge," said explained Thomas Heller, chief business officer for Compass Mining, which works with Sears' employer, SCATE Ventures.
There's so much noise, and there's so much heat. There's just so much action going on. It is quite cool to walk into a data center for the first time that's mining bitcoin, because you can really connect the intangible aspects of bitcoin as a currency, with the physical nature of these machines consuming power and doing these calculations."
A day in the life of a miner
Mining for bitcoin isn't a glamorous job.

"When we first got here, we were setting up racks, creating the network infrastructure for the internet, and we essentially had to wire everything," he said.

Once the physical infrastructure was up and running, Sears got into more of a rhythm. He's now up at 7 A.M. everyday and works from eight to four. He remains on site afterwards, just in case of an emergency, and there is a technician who works night shifts so that Sears can get some sleep.

But beyond the hours, there is no typical work day for Sears.

"That's the cool thing about this job – I don't have a set routine that I do everyday," he said. "Every morning, I find what needs to be fixed."

Some days, that means Sears repairs walls and other physical infrastructure. "If we have to repair a camera, maybe I'm fixing a cable."

But the biggest part of the job is monitoring and managing every one of those 4,500 Bitmain and Whatsminer ASICs to ensure they are running 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If even one of those machines goes offline, or is only running at partial capacity, the SCATE Ventures mine loses money.

That's because when someone is mining for bitcoin, what they are actually doing is lending their computing power to the bitcoin network. The more machines you have online, the better your chances at winning bitcoin.
Roughly every ten minutes, 6.25 bitcoins are created. In order to mint these new tokens, a global pool of miners are all contributing their computing power to running a hashing algorithm. But these miners aren't working in a vacuum. They're competing against each other to see who can unlock each batch of new bitcoin first.

So the stakes are high for Sears. Being diligent and knowing how to triage issues across the entire facility is critical to success.

Some mining sites use more sophisticated software to monitor the machines, which includes checking the temperature of each hashboard within the individual miners.

But most important for Sears is just figuring out which of his machines aren't functioning at full capacity.

"Every day, you find the machines that have stopped hashing, then you remove them from the rack, and you troubleshoot," he explained. "You've got to find the problem with the machines. You've got to find out why it went offline."

It could be a power outage, which would affect all the machines, or it could be a network outage which could impact all of the machines or just some.

"Sometimes they just need a power cycle or a reboot," he said.

But the hardware fix isn't always as simple as that.

"It could be that the fan on the individual machine that is used for cooling is broken, or maybe it's the power supply that needs to be repaired or replaced," explained Heller.

"It could be the hashboards themselves," continued Heller. "Each hashboard has lots of individual chips, and those are the chips doing the calculations. I think with a Bitmain machine, if more than four chips on a single hashboard are broken, the whole hashboard will switch off. So instead of hashing at about 100%, you're only hashing at two-thirds or one-third."

Seasonal changes in the weather add a whole other layer of complexity.

What is JUPEB Programme?
Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB) is a national examinations body approved by the Federal Government of Nigeria in December 2013. It was formally established in April 2014 by a consortium of ten (10) partnering universities led by the University of Lagos.

Furthermore, JUPEB is a year Programme that qualifies successful candidates for 200 Level admission without JAMB. This simply means that JUPEB candidates do not need to bother about JAMB before securing admission into their preferred Universities.

Another good thing about JUPEB is that about 90% of Nigerian universities accept the result for admission in to any department provided you meet the required Cut Off Mark for the course.

JUPEB is Approved: By the Federal Government has a platform for securing admission into a higher institution in the country and abroad.

JUPEB is Proven: Yearly, about 20,000 applicants put in for the programme in which more than 70% fraction successfully secure admission with it into 200 level to their preferred institution & course.

JUPEB is Certified: By Nigeria University Commission (NUC) has an Advanced level examination that qualifies students into 200level via JAMB


Advantages of JUPEB Programme
Below are some of the basic advantages of the Joint University Preliminary Examination Board, JUPEB Programme;

Admission without JAMB
Direct Admission into 200Level
Short duration (A year Programme)
90% of Nigerian University acceptability.
JUPEB Programme is approved by Nigeria University Commission
JUPEB is more economical, because it will save you the cost and stress of 100 level as you will be admitted directly into 200 level upon completion of the Programme.
Students with awaiting results can also register for JUPEB.

How JUPEB Works
Prospective JUPEB candidates are required to select any THREE (3) A/L JUPEB Subject Combination plus General studies (English Language) identified with their preferred course of study in the university be it Science, Art or Social Science Course.

Candidates would then be lectured for the stipulated period at their respective Study Centre and thereafter sit for the final examination. On completion of the programme, successful candidates accordingly utilise their JUPEB certificate to secure admission into 200level in any Nigeria tertiary institution via JAMB.
