•Increases Acceptance fees from N21000 to N81000

•School fees rises to N250000

The Delta State University , Abraka has approved the 2017/2018 academic session new intake acceptance fees as follows;

*All professional courses such as medicine & Surgery, Pharmacy , Nursing , Law, Engineering shall attracts the sum of Eighty one thousand naira (#81,000) for Deltans and one hundred and one thousand naira for non Deltans (#101,000)as its acceptance fee.

From the above details , this means that the Delta State University, Abraka school fees will attract above two hundred and fifty thousand naira (#250,000) for Deltans and three hundred to four hundred thousands for non Deltans

Reaction:
The President UPU Youth wing worldwide Hon. Comrade Ovie Igho , a former Delta State University Students Union Government President, an indigene , a Pan Niger Delta youth leader has directed the vice Chancellor of Delta State University, Abraka Professor Victor Peretomode to with immediate effects revisit the 2017/2018 academic session acceptance fee/school fee to avoid to total show down of the university. He warned the school management and senate council to behave like fathers and mothers to their children who cares and protect their wards irrespective of linage.

Because if the school management and senate council do not care about the less privilege wards who also attend the university, that is they are calling for the university close down because the university was established to bring close education to the people and encourage every child to earn tertiary certificate even with minimal money and not to discourage us.

He also call on the student bodies such as Students Union Government, JCC/NANS to step up their mandate mechanisms to protect and fight against any form of oppression, humiliation and extortions by the any institutional management because they are be voted to act as intermediary between the school management and the students and not other way around.

Though , he said he is on the top of issue as well to prefer the best ways forward to accommodate all qualified or admitted students into the school without any inches of financial constrains as the proposed fees has already threaten many to withdraw even when they have not be admitted.

The President described the actions of the school management and senate council as mischievous, barbaric and evil due to high level of greed, corruption and avarice in public offices. But we will not accept this nonsense and injustice. Its a big shame and disgrace to the delta state government to deprived Deltans of education due to selfishness, wickedness and greed of some individuals enrichment. Meanwhile, he said the community has resolved to push adhesively without fear or favor of any kind, he asserted.

Health / How Monkey Pox Started In Bayelsa Community - Full Gist by ElTommyBlaq(m): 6:11am On Oct 08, 2017
Residents of Agbura community in Ogbia Local
Government Area where the suspected Monkey Pox epidemic started were not bothered about the
disease, investigations showed yesterday.
It was also gathered contrary to insinuations the
index case of the epidemic came down with the
disease after consuming monkey, the teenager only had constant contact with a monkey, which he played with it as a pet.

When our correspondent visited the community,
which is not far from Otuoke, the community of
former President Goodluck Jonathan, the localsv
were seen going about their normal activities.
A commercial motorcyclist claimed he had never
heard about the epidemic and directed our
correspondent to speak to another resident, who
identified himself simply as Nathan.



But Nathan said there was nothing serious about
the monkey pox in the riverine community, adding
the family of the index case resides on Unity Street around the area.

“We only heard that one family from the eastern part of the country travelled home where they are they
ate monkey so when they came back to our
community, some of them came down with the
sickness,” he said.

At unity Street, our correspondent observed people around the area were going about their activities
without fear.

Contrary to reports, neighbours had not relocated
from the street.

A neighbour, who spoke in confidence, said only an 11-year-old boy and his six years old younger
brother came down with symptoms of the epidemic.

He stated the case of the younger brother was not
as severe as his elder brother.
Apart from the two victims, nobody living with them had come down with the sickness, the neigbour
hinted.

He said parents of the victims had not shown signs of the epidemic, adding their mother owned a restaurant somewhere in Yenagoa, the state capital.

On how the victims could have contracted the
suspected virus, he said: “We don’t really know. But
all I can tell you is that one of the neighbours with a shop had a monkey.
“The victims used to play with the monkey. The
monkey was like their pet. The monkey used to lick their bodies and climbed on them. That was all we know before their sickness occurred”.
It was gathered the victims were later taken away
by health experts to the University Teaching
Hospital Okolobiri where they were treated and
brought back home.

The victims were reportedly asked to remain
indoors, pending total recuperation.
The source said: “When the health experts came
they asked our neighbour to take the monkey away

We don’t know where the monkey was taken to.
“But the experts have been coming around to check
the health statuses of some people around here.
“They said they would soon carry out a general
medical examination of everybody. But we don’t
think it is anything serious”.
Bayelsa State Government has established a 12-
member rapid response team consisting of top
medical professionals and public health experts to
check possible spread of the monkey pox.
Commissioner for Health, Prof. Ebimitula Etebu, who
set up the committee, reassured the epidemic was under control adding that there was not need to
panic.

Commissioner for Information and Orientation,
Daniel Iworiso-Markson, said government had
embarked on practical steps to ensure the disease was prevented from spreading.

TV/Movies / TSTV To Begin Commercial Operation On Nov. 1 by ElTommyBlaq(m): 12:28pm On Oct 07, 2017
Telcomm Satellite TV (TSTV) says its newly
inaugurated pay TV, TSTV Africa, will begin
commercial operation on Nov. 1.

Its Managing Director, Mr Bright Echefu, made
this known while briefing newsmen on Saturday
in Abuja.

Echefu added that TSTV would launch its
services with about one million decoders
nationwide.

He said that at least 5,000 decoders TSTV would
be released to the public next week for free,
adding that it would use the first set of
decoders with one month free subscription to
test run its services.

“Commercialization of our decoders will resume
officially on Nov. 1 and by that time, every part
of Nigeria would have TSTV decoders for people
to buy.

“We are releasing about one million which can
go round and our target for the first quarter is
one million units.

“In every quarter we will bring one million units
and we are targeting four million units within
the next one year.

“I can tell you categorically that some decoders
will be released next week for Nigerians to test
and we are going to cover the 36 states of the
federation.
“These decoders are going to be free and it close
to 5,000 units to test and that will last for two
weeks,’’ he said.

Echefu disclosed that the delay in releasing the
decoders to the public was to ensure that
dealers were properly scrutinized so that the
decoders do not fall into the wrong hands.
He explained that the decoder would be sold to
Nigerians at a subsidized rate.
According to him, the landing cost of the
decoder is N28,000.
“We don’t want a situation where someone
would pick our decoders and dump them
somewhere.
“That is why we are very careful because of
competition.

“ We have received well over 6,000 applications
and it has been overwhelming processing these
people; but so far, we have been able to accredit
more than 748 dealers and we have received
applications from more than 3,000 of them.
“That is why we have not commercialized our
services even though we are the ones losing
because we have enough decoders to cover the
whole of Nigeria.
“But it will be unfair with all the money put in
for us to give decoders out and those decoders
don’t get to the end users,’’ Echefu added.
TSTV boss said that measures had been put in
place to ensure its sustainability in terms of
services, pledging that the organisation would
be envied by many Nigerians in the next ten
years.

He disclosed that the organisation currently had
a total of 250 staff on direct employment, while
it expects to that indirect employment would hit
10,000 at take off.
According to him, TSTV has improved on its
transmission facilities to overcome weather
challenges while expressing happiness over the
acceptance that Nigerians.
He praised the Federal Government for the
three years tax relief granted to the company to
encourage more investors to come to Nigeria.
He said that the company would consolidate on
the new tax policy to grow its business in the
country and recoup its investment.
On the alleged copyright infringement on two
international content providers, Turner
Broadcasting System and beIN sports, Echefu
said the company entered into partnership
agreement with every concerned organisation.
According to him, TSTV will air CNN and beIN
sport channels.

He commended DSTV for creating value for
Nigerian content.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that
the new satellite pay TV was inaugurated on
Oct. 1 but is yet to be viewed by the public.

Sports / Nigeria Vs Zambia: Five Super Eagles Players To Watch Out For by ElTommyBlaq(m): 8:41am On Oct 07, 2017



With Nigeria set for a showdown against the
Chipolopolo of Zambia for a spot in the 2018
World Cup, we highlight five Nigerian players
to look out for in the cracker at the Godswill
Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.

Victor Moses

The mercurial Moses, flying wingback at
Chelsea and talismanic winger with the Super
Eagles has proved he is Nigeria’ s hottest
footballing property with his performances in
the World Cup qualifiers .
Victor Moses showed his pre -eminence in both
legs of the fixture against Cameroon . Time and
again he was scythed down by the
Cameroonian defenders who were frustrated
by his trickery and constant running. The
winger (or wingback) has three goals in
Nigeria’s World Cup qualifying campaign
including his brace in his superlative
performance against Algeria. The 26-year old
missed the reverse fixture of this tie at Ndola
but at Uyo, he certainly will be chomping at the
bit to lead the Super Eagles to the 2018 World
Cup in Russia with his otherworldly display.
Moses is full of edge of the seat moments and
he’s sure to deliver in Nigeria’ s most important
game yet in the qualifiers.

Mikel Obi

The elder statesman , totem of everything calm
and serene . The love affair with Mikel Obi was
not always this strong . Mikel Obi didn’ t have
the fans’ adulation and high praise some
months back . It was more side-eyed
acknowledgement of his status as a cog in the
Super Eagles . Injury happened , he missed the
South Africa game and the midfield got thrust
into bedlam status. Then the true worth of the
Super Eagles captain was known . Mikel didn ’t
disappoint. Not fully fit he donned the Green
and White and strode the pitch majestically
restoring calm to the midfield while connecting
the midfield to the attack and notching a goal
and an assist. To further state his importance,
after he was substituted in the second leg of
the Cameroon game, the midfield found it
difficult to keep possession against the press of
their opponents. Also the midfield lost its
structure and the Cameroonians found it easy
to break through the lines to assert themselves
and ultimately getting a penalty that led to the
equalizer ten minutes after Mikel Obi trudged
off the pitch .

Leon Balogun

The Lion of the famed Oyinbo wall. The Mainz
player was an assured figure in the defence in
Nigeria’s last game quenching opposition
attacks while starting them for the Super
Eagles. The defender’ s excellent reading of the
game was on show as he stepped out of the
defence to make timely interceptions as well as
that last ditch tackle that remains etched into
our sub-conscious . The swaggering display by
the 29-year old alongside his partner William
Troost- Ekong has drawn comparisons with the
legendary duo of Taribo West and Uche
Okechukwu. Balogun ’s confidence with the ball
at his feet is amazing as the central defender
played out of the back with consummate ease
and when there were no passing options, he
simply walked the ball into the attack from the
defence. Easy peasy.

Odion Ighalo

The Changchun Yatai striker proved a menace
to the Cameroonian defence with his
movement and his physicality. After being
overlooked for the South African tie, the
forward was recalled for the Cameroon games
and he acquitted himself brilliantly. The former
Watford striker intelligently dropped deep to
receive balls when he felt starved of service a
trait he hardly showed in his previous displays
with the Super Eagles . The striker in several
games for Nigeria has always cut an isolated
figure in attack taking up high starting
positions and detached from the midfield and
gameplay generally. He has shown he can mix
it up now, dropping deep , drifting wide ,
playing on the defenders shoulder, it is the
whole nine yards now. With more strings
added to bow, as well as his contributions in
and around the box, scoring goals or creating
chances the 28 -year -old is certainly one to
watch. Oh, his signature ‘Iggy Chop ’, a simple
yet effective move he uses to dribble past
defenders to create a shooting angle is one
thing to look out for.

Alex Iwobi

His last game at Uyo was nothing short of a
disaster, largely ineffective and the Super
Eagles were defeated against South Africa.
Certainly, Gernot Rohr learnt from that game
an important lesson : how not to use Alex
Iwobi in a match. On how to use him , Arsene
Wenger might have shown Rohr a trick or two.
The midfielder who got a goal in Arsenal ’s last
game played in the inside right channel where
he combined well with Alexander Lacazette.
The Super Eagles certainly will bear a different
look with the youngster back in the side after
he missed the doubleheader to Cameroon
through injury . His creativity and intelligent
use of the ball will add another dimension to
the Eagles’ attack while also aiding ball
retention. The 21- year old got a goal in the
reverse fixture of the tie against Zambia, his
only goal for the Super Eagles so far , he’d
certainly love to add another.
