I do feel sick all the time sometimes 2 to 3 times a month which lasted for 7years it was very bad then i do feel like fainting. i have gone to different hospital some years back 2 told me i have typhoid and malaria which they gave me drugs it didn't work then i went to the last hospital and they told me i i have bacterial infection which dey gave me drugs which i used and it worked but after some time i started feeling sick but not as bad like the first time....i do have head ache feeling as if my brain is overworking but when i get the malaria and typhoid drugs which might cost 1500# i will be ok for some weeks whats the cause please

Are you guilty of any these?
1. Too much stress
2. Not eating like others (maybe u eat a little and sometimes skip your meals).
3. Are u living in mosquitoes-infested area?
4. Can you say the places you eat from have clean food?
5. Do you drink clean water?


I used to be like you in my school days. I found out I treat malaria and/or typhoid every three weeks. My school was infested with mosquitoes. The water too was not safe. It continued till I graduated. It affected my overall performance. When I started living in clean environment and no much stress, I now stay for 9 months without any treatment.

Bros I don try am ... still saying invalid login

Did you do your registrations late? Most persons having this issue are those who registered their courses/exams late when the lockdown had started. Try and contact their twitter handle like someone suggested. Good luck.

Conduct a survey yourself by searching through NL posts. Do we have more positive posts on marriage or vice versa?
The terrible marriage stories are the ones you see. You see no goodnews here. People having peaceful homes don't come here posting how they have never quarreled since they married. All u see is... "wife poured hot water on husband due to infidelity", "wife stabs husband after husband answers call from a strange woman. " "man commits suicide after borrowing 3M for marriage" and a lot more.
Like someone said above, it is now SCARY. scary because what is said are more of the bad things happening in marriages.

TheAfricaQueen:
Marriage is seen as an attainment of success and independence for a man and for a woman it means she is truly desired and that she will not be left on the shelf. They spend hundreds of thousands or millions on their wedding, they litter their social media with magnificent pictures of the wedding day and honeymoon, they try to induce envy amongst their families and single friends. They smugly ask their single family members/friends why they are not married and tell them they should hurry up and that time is ticking particularly for the women.

The reality is many married couples hate the sight of eachother, how they act in public is all for show, inside they are suffering.

Regarding women, they will be cheated on by their husbands, they might be gas-lighted and subjected to the silent treatment or not returning home treatment if the man doesn't get his way. She may experience physical, psychological or emotional abuse. If the woman has had enough and wants to leave, she is convinced to fast/pray and stay to keep her family together.

Regarding men, they may have thought they married a subservient, docile girl who they believe they can manipulate and control but in fact that girl was an actress just to get a ring on her finger and when she has had her marriage, her true colours shine through, you discover she was not a modest girl after all and by then it's already to late, you may be subjected to emotional/psychological/physical abuse as well. She may cheat on you too with her Exs or a man richer than her husband. However since we are in a patriarchal society she will be thrown out of the house if she is suspected of cheating.

What am I trying to say? Single people be happy where you are and if it's meant to be, you will meet the right person, do not be pressured by society to settle for less than you deserve. The single life is better than a hellish marriage or a divorce.

Thank you.

Well... What you posted is actually now the most talked-about side of marriage. You hardly see in the news the good sides. That's how terrible and scary it has become. My candid advice is that, there's no general formula. Some singles are better than some marriages and vice versa.
Before I got married, I wanted to due to personal conviction and not pressure. In fact, pressure would have made me stayed single. But my testimony is that, for me, being single (in a relationship) was hell too demanding than being married even though it's same person I dated I married. The challenges of the courtship was more than now.
Overall, make decision based on your conviction and not what you see or read anywhere.
Cheers.

Is it also for freshers(100)level?

All students that registered this semester.

UPDATE: GST ELEARN PLATFORM

This information is for students who have been finding it difficult to login to the website.
Additional student data have been successfully uploaded into the elearn platform which means more students now have access to their GST portal.


1. The GST platform remains https://elearn.nouedu2.net

2. login with their matric number as username and as password in lower case e.g nou123456

3. If a handheld or smartphone device is been used to access the page, the device should be set to auto-rotate so as to be able to see the login icon.

Cheers.

So I exhausted my data and I wanted to see what the figures was like on ncdc site. Realized I had to have data to be able to get information on what is a global pandemic right now.. smh

I am given 100MB daily for the website on MTN.

Tell her you will do better next time.

In all... Fear not pls. Fear kills faster than anything.

That is a major symptom of Covid-19. Where is your location?

What you did is wrong although I understand that u needed to take a drastic measure.
The step which you could have taken is for you to wet the entire place every night. Goats hate wet places and hence they will look for another place to stay instead of behind your windows.
As for your question, tell her the truth and be free so that u won't be linking every headache u have to through incantation. That kills faster that juju.

Please house, if one graduates, does it mean one can no longer access ones's profile?

I finished my masters programme around 2015/2016, since then I have been unable to access my profile. Does it mean it was closed down?

Yes, you have been removed from the portal. Few months after graduation, your profile is deactivated

Nice one OP.
I started some days ago and got some tutorials online. Would you mind sharing some of the resources that helped you with me? Thanks.

Temporary markets go become main market be dat. Coz once one person start am. Even after corona, na continuity ooo.

You wan turn LGEA schools to permanent markets?

Ribasandez:
Let's all put an end to this argument. From what I have observed, it's getting a bit messy and tempers are flairing.

The whole discussion was not meant to be derogatory, but enlightening based on my observation of things. My observation has been spot on. My concern was for everyone, as it came from a selfless mind. In other words, I cared about the system, the students, and the alumni.

My advice, just like me, once you finish from NOUN and get your certificate, navigate yourself very well. If you have a good result, and you are a responsible person, and you need assistance, you can reach me.

Some of us who have graduated will form an Alumni group, where guidance and assistance can be given to fresh graduates (hopefully, this will last for years). On our part, the few alumni who are pursuing great goals and who are achieving success, and who have decided to form a network, will see how to help other students through guidance and other means.

There are incredibly intelligent NOUN students and graduates, and we are proud of this. The issue I raised was the effect of a conspicuously publicized TMA assistance on the Internet and everywhere else.

There may be corruption in every other university, but they are not conspicuously shown to the public; they are hidden. If your blood is boiling because u misunderstood my statement, then I think u need to sit back and carefully think about what this whole issue is about.

No one is degrading NOUN as an institution!

You did nothing wrong by raising the issue. But to raise the issue without making reference to those publicly soliciting for TMA customers here made it incomplete. I saw no one angry here. You can see from the responses that no one has been insulted or talked to in an ill manner. Instead, points have been presented in matured way which already is to the fact that everyone so far has demonstrated respect for people's opinion. Once again, thank you for raising the issue.
And for those of you still advertising and soliciting for TMA 'customers' on this thread, you have heard from the students. Try and be more discrete and stop damaging the name of the institution.

ade2291:
Lol. This is absolutely hilarious. You were prepared to bet for a certain statement which you didn't present its source. So you expect me to believe yours and debunk the knowledge of a professor? There is no need for the ex-NUC boss to lie, take note that at the time he gave such statement, he was already out of office. So what's the essence of lying or covering up? Perhaps, Jamb that was actually organized for such reason didn't lie about it. I am not against noun admitting student strictly, but they should add a little filtering layer to figure out lazy students. Use Jamb or institute a little oral test to screen applicants.

1. If O Level results were trustworthy, we won't have any reasons to doubt students' results.
2. If UTME was faultless, why PUTME?
These are questions begging for answers. All these above have their loopholes as well. The "little oral test" you suggested for NOUN... It is good but difficult of Open Distance Learning. I have people who have done online courses outside Nigeria. The procedure is virtually the same. I guess, the peculiarity of NOUN makes those things a bit difficult to implement. The distance learning outside Nigeria, you don't even have to come to their centres for exams. The exams are all online. We will get there.

ade2291:
If you are mistaking utme for putme, I can send you sources to learn how both came into existence and the reasons for the inventions. Your bet can't outwit what the ex-NUC boss gave out as reason to setup putme. Please read https://dailypost.ng/2016/07/12/how-we-started-post-ume-ex-nuc-

Again you have always talked about sorting in conventional schools and all sort, If you think there is no sorting in noun 300L and above, then you just need to hear stories. You still can't change the fact that concessional examination is one way to scrutinize the serious students from the lazy ones.

You are quoting what NUC boss said? If they put you in that position, won't you have explanations to give? Every system has its own peculiar issues but I bet you, you didn't pay bribe to get admitted in NOUN
I didn't mistaken PUTME for UTME. Along the thread, someone mentioned that prospective students should be given an exam at least even if they can not sit for UTME and my response was a general one and not to your points alone.
NOUN is improving in some areas and with time, things will get better. But for now, you have many things to boast about that the conventional universities can not talk with you.

braveboy64:
Why are they rejecting this IPPIS gan

What they said there is true. I joined IPPIS in December and was paid through the platform in February and March. My salary has reduced by about 23k with no explanations.

hiswords7:
Wait oooo......I have a student that has paid for weeks now. We couldn't even do the registrations because after crediting the wallet it will show the amount at the bottom but the portal balance still remain zero. Now, tma1 is close......how will he do it??

You should have sort for advise since. Simply click WALLET, then VIEW WALLET. Click BACK. you should see the balance in your portal. That's all u needed to do.
Send a DM if u still can't fix it.

ade2291:
An entry test or a specific jamb cutoff will reduce the inflation of such students to the school.

Edited.
I can bet you that the reasons those Universities write the entrance/qualifying exams is mostly because they have more students applying for less 'spaces'. In the case of NOUN, in fact they are looking for more students as there's no visible limit to the number of students they can handle. ....And our comparisons will be worthwhile if we try to compare NOUN with other Open Universities.
There are shortfalls and as well as advantages. We are all here talking about 30 marks in an assignment for those students who choose to unethically contract their assignments meanwhile there are many conventional Universities out there in Nigeria where students 'sort' to pass all their courses yet the students don't feel this way. Why are we not shouting that to the world? How many of your lectures victimize you? How many of them ask you for money or sex for grade? In conventional Universities in a country as divergent as Nigeria, some people can victimize students even because of tribe, sex (male or female), religion etc but do we have that in NOUN? Even the so-called admissions that they write entry/qualifying exams for. The admissions are marred by gross favouritism and tribalism. Is NOUN admission system not the fairest of systems in Nigeria? Why are we not screaming that to the world?
Inferiority is of the mind and if NOUN students cannot even stand up to push out their strength, no one else will do it better. No matter how the school try, if the students/graduates of NOUN choose to remain with inferior mind, he will remain inferior. Many of the NOUN students and graduates seem to focus on the hole of the doughnut instead of the whole of the doughnut. Focus on your current strength and project yourself instead of feeling inferior for the minor issues.
Happy New Month to everyone here.

Idiataqueen:
Noun is not a school,infact am starting to regret obtaining the form,BFN (207)TMA1 was not uploaded before it was closed, infact I still checked in the morning before it was closed it was still showing not yet ready,I was told that it has gone,I will be marked 0 in that TMA,infact am considering obtaining ui dlc form and stop noun,it pained me,and who knows the worst thing they may done.

Who told u you will be marked Zero? If your lecturer did not give you test, he either use a certain formula to give a general score for the test or mark the exams over 100. I can tell you that last semester, courses without TMAs like that were given certain scores based on a derived Formula. That complain you just raised shouldn't count yet. Cheers.

And no GST103?

imagrg:
I have a question sir.
My children stopped their studies at the institution in 2015 because of their poor performance in the course I chosed for them.
Please can they continue and change their courses?
Please reply via WhatsApp Chat: 07084793078

If they have not gone far and indeed their performance was poor (it depends on how poor), I will suggest they should begin the new programme. If it's not so poor and maybe they have gone far like, more than two semesters, they can continue but changing of course depends on how close both courses are. More details will help anyone give u a more precise advice.
