labodinho:
My take on this

PPT should be restored but if it cant be then this should be carried out for CBT

1) A week proper check of CBT center and provision of power supply.
2) Employment of Professional IT personnel
3) Daily check and test run of the computer used with a day interval
4) Duration of JAMB examination should be extended,a month isn't too bad,we'll just assume itz waec or neco.

my token.

if PPT is restored, there'll be an increase in Examination malpractice

Okay then, agreed.
Now if Jamb is not using the Point System as you have said, how will they select qualified candidates and then send them to their first choice institutions for screening? Only Jamb score would be used?

Yeah, only jamb score will be used.... though I don't support this method due to the challenges faced by some candidates this year

Education › Re: Unilag 2016/2017 Admission Guide ( Unilag 2016 Jambites). by davbravo(m): 11:47am On Jul 09, 2016

I don't know why you all are misinterpreting this new policy.....Jamb didn't say the point system will be used, they only made reference to a particular University using that method which only favours those with more A's in their O'level..... The new policy is that no school must carryout another form of screening/test similar to jamb...... students should only be screened by making sure they meet all the requirements by checking their O'level, Jamb result/ Admission letter,etc, after the list of those shortlisted is sent to the institution....And the list of those not admitted should be sent back to jamb and they'll be posted to other institutions preferably the 2nd choice of the candidate

Politics › Buhari’s Administration Has Done Well So Far – US Envoy by davbravo(op): 6:40pm On Jul 08, 2016

The outgoing US Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr James Entwistle, says President Muhammadu Buhari’s economic recovery efforts deserve the understanding and support of Nigerians.

Entwistle stated this in an interactive session with newsmen in Abuja on Friday. He insisted President Buhari did well in the first 365 days in office
“I see a parallel between President Buhari and President Obama.
“President Obama had not been in office for very long, but the people had same kind of impatience.
“And I think in my country a lot of people forgot how difficult the situation was that President Obama inherited.
“I think the same thing is happening with President Buhari – to a certain degree.
“It is completely understandable to me that people have a high expectation, they are impatient, they want to see change.

“But Mr President inherited a very difficult set of circumstances and some of the things that he has identified that need to be done – end corruption; reform the petroleum sector and end the conflict in the North-East.
“These are things that even if he works as hard as he can, it will take some time.

“I understand people are impatient; the expectations from Mr President are very high.
“I think we have to remember what he inherited. And in my own opinion we have to be neutral and balanced.
“I think Mr President and his team have done a good job this first year.’’
He noted that the slide in the economy was a culmination of some of the problems inherited by the Buhari administration including poor infrastructure in the petroleum sector.
While commending the President for the efforts being made to revive the nation’s economy, he expressed the hope that the economy would improve as quickly as possible.

“I think he has put in place some things, though I am not an economist, but what he has done with the exchange rate and fuel subsidy and so on.
“I think in a very deliberate fashion the economy hopefully is going to improve.
“But remember that in this age, no country is an economic island.
“What affects a country affects the economy of every other country.
“I gave the President very good marks and let’s see how he marches forward in the next few months.”

Sports › Mourinho Will Help Me At Man City, Says Guardiola by davbravo(op): 6:26pm On Jul 08, 2016

Pep Guardiola believes his rivalry with Jose Mourinho will help push him on to achieve success at Manchester City.
The two managers were bitter foes when they were in charge at Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively.

Now they have started work at the same time in Manchester, with Guardiola taking over at City and Mourinho returning to the Premier League as Manchester United’s new manager.

And while playing down his past history with Mourinho, Guardiola says taking on the former Real, Chelsea and Inter Milan boss — as well as a clutch of other high-profile overseas managers — will bring the best out of him.

Speaking to the media for the first time since leaving Bayern Munich to replace Manuel Pellegrini as City boss on a three-year contract, Guardiola said: “He wants to win, I want to win.
“I can say like a coach they help me — the big coaches — and Jose is one of them. They help me to reach another level.

“We know each other pretty well from before, from Barcelona. I think it is great that big managers are here, top managers are here.
“My experience against him, against (Jurgen) Klopp at Dortmund, they made me better. All the managers in the world want to win.

“Big managers take me as a manager to a different level. Competing with them takes me to the next level.
“They push me to try and win the league, win the cup, win the Champions League and then you find out if you are big enough, capable enough to win with teams like Bayern, like Barcelona, like Manchester City.”

Guardiola, 45, was twice a Champions League winner as Barcelona coach and, after winning three league titles in Spain, also led Bayern Munich to a hat-trick of Bundesliga successes.

But he believes imposing his style of eye-catching, passing football on the Premier League and winning honours domestically and in Europe with City could be his toughest test yet after the 2013 champions finished fourth in the league last season under Pellegrini.

‘Prove myself’
Guardiola added, “That is why I am here, to prove, to prove myself, that I am able to do that. I feel this is the right moment to come here and prove myself to play the way I want.

“Every stage is a big challenge. It could be the biggest because City have not won as many titles as Barcelona or Bayern, but I can’t answer.
“Maybe when I took over the second team from Barcelona it was the hardest because I felt in that moment my career would be finished.

“At Barcelona and Bayern Munich, we have to win every day and every day. I see how difficult it is in England to find a team to win four, five, six games in a row. It is not easy.
“All the people talk about that. Maybe that is the challenge, to try to be more consistent in our game.

“I think in my career people are always going to demand of my teams the way they are going to train, to try and win the maximum as possible. But in the end that is good. It is better to live under that pressure.”

Guardiola has so far signed three players in midfielders Ilkay Gundogan and Oleksandr Zinchenko and forward Nolito and admitted he is keen to strengthen his squad further.
The City boss has been linked with moves for defenders John Stones, of Everton, and Juventus and Italy star Leonardo Bonucci.

But he hopes club captain Vincent Kompany will overcome the injury problems that have dogged him in recent seasons to remain a key part of his plans.

“My dream for Vincent Kompany is to be fit,” Guardiola said. “The captain has a lot of experience and is a magnificent centre-back, but of course he has to be fit.
“We spoke to him and said ‘just focus on your body and come back to what you were in the past’. Vincent will show his qualities.”

Politics › Obiano Pays For 70 Cows To Appease Herdsmen by davbravo(op): 4:06pm On Jul 08, 2016

The Anambra state governor, Chief Willie Obiano, has paid compensation for about 70 cows to herdsmen.
The cows were allegedly killed by a host community of Umumbo in Ayamelum Local Government Area of the state.

The governor also paid compensation to a community in the state whose farmlands were invaded by herdsmen.
The leader of the Muslim community in the state, Alhaji Garba Haruna, disclosed this to newsmen on Friday in Awka, the state capital.
He said this understanding had brought peace between herdsmen and host communities in the state.

Haruna, who doubles as the Special Assistant to the governor on Muslim Affairs, described the governor as “the man who saw tomorrow”.
He commended the governor for his foresight in handling the affairs of non-indigenes of the state.
“Our governor can be called ‘the man who saw tomorrow’.

“Before this problem of herdsmen began, governor Obiano had constituted a committee on the cattle menace.
“The committee is headed by the Commissioner of Police in the state. I’m a member of that committee.
“And at various times, this committee had handled and settled disputes between host communities and herdsmen in the state.
“On one occasion the governor paid compensation for over 70 cows to herdsmen, while host communities whose crops were destroyed were compensated by the state governor.”

He enjoined Muslims not to involve in any form of killing but to maintain the holiness of the Ramadan season.

Family › The World's Oldest Male Twins Who Have No Children Or Wives Turn 103 (photo) by davbravo(op): 3:48pm On Jul 08, 2016*

The World's oldest living male twins, Belgian men Pieter and Paulus Langerock, who have lived together most of their lives, celebrated at their care home on Friday as they turned 103.
To this day, the brothers who barely leave each other’s side have never ever married, and share a room at their nursing home just outside the Belgian town of Ghent.

The two men who have no children or grandchildren say they are each other's best friends as they celebrated with a glass of wine on Friday.
After their long careers as court magistrates in the middle of the 20th century, the elegantly-dressed 103-year-olds prefer speaking French and being addressed as “Pierre and Paul”.

They have another two years to go to break the record of US brothers Glen and Dale Moyer, both of whom reached 105 before dying.

Education › Re: Tricky Puzzle - 49 Out Of 50 People Get This Wrong by davbravo(m): 5:40pm On Jul 03, 2016

originalKsp:
Well done guys but I am sorry to inform you that the answer is not 15, This is not the pattern
72 + 27 = 99
27 + 18 = 45
18 + 21 = 39....
If you follow this pattern, you will notice that it doesn't work for the three last numbers:

13 + 7 is not equal to 21
.
The pattern for this puzzle is more tricky than it seems to be. In fact this puzzle is used to test how people jump to conclusions.

The correct pattern works for all the numbers in the puzzle.
....... waiting for the genius who will unveil this pattern.

Also thought it was 15 until I got to the last part "13+7" which wasn't equal to 21....am just cracking my brain right now
