Pls no posting of scores..

Why sir??....

Jesus of Nazareth!!, where the hell did you guys get those questions from?, damn!....



Congratulations to the winners, I don't even hope of winning, but at I hope I at least come out in top 20....

By 4:40 PM, we will finally see the floodgate of comments....all will be revealed....

Very interesting concept.

RoastedCorn:
the way you social science/arts guys go about this mathematics thing is so so sickening. for crying out loud we did same maths and English from Pry1 - SS3 so why the fuss??. I'm a medical student hasn't done any maths related course for up to four years now too, even SAT is maths and English. No one should be responsible for your weakness in maths and strength in English . . please the organizers, continue with your strategy because I don't find any fault in it since the maths questions being asked are basic reasoning questions and not dy/dx

I think it isn't just a social science or arts issue, I am a MCB&V(Microbiology and Virology) student and I find the mathematics to be unnecessary. Though we have no right to tell the organizers how to conduct the competition, I sincerely hope the maths is reduced in stage 2.

RoastedCorn:
see this one, currently I know 3 different people in UNIBEN school of medicine that scored 74% each, another scored 64% and I'm like the fifth position with 54% . . so you see the trophy is coming to UNIBEN again

I wonder how you came about these voodoo statistics; 74%,64%,and 54%?, this just looks like an arithmetic progression. What are the odds that all the Uniben students managed to get scores with 10% difference all through?.




Well, I can still congratulate a Unibenite's victory in this competition, but a Uite?,absolutely not!.

All these U.I. people cannot be trusted.



Please, my Unilorin guys, lets strive to show we are Better By Far.




U.I. must not be allowed to win, no matter the cost.

@mods, Richiez,Odunharry and Xfire




Since you said that we can make suggestions regarding the competition, I formally appeal that the mathematics questions be reduced or even removed in the "Stage-2". This is because I observed(after taking the Stage 1 test) that the mathematics questions consumed too much time and it probably isn't fair to those who aren't studying or haven't studied(at O'level) maths related sciences.



I appeal that the questions be more general IQ/Aptitude related for Stage-2. Apart from the maths,the test was excellent,though very engaging. I hope you consider my suggestion.

Thank You.

Still an interesting topic. Cc:Lalasticlala, Seun, Mynd44

Talk about unstable you just contradicted yourself you said feminism is unachievable yet you congratulate feminist, talk about double minded

Calm down, take a deep breath, then go back and read my post...read it very carefully, perhaps three times,so that it can manage to sink into your skull.



Then come back and modify your comment.

danvon:
Well insult me all you want you can't be a feminist if you're not a lesbian or support lgbt and yes misogyny is usually associated with masculine gays

When @proudgorgeousga accused you of being daft, I felt that she was going overboard, now I see that she was probably right.



Gays are not usually associated with mysogyny, infact, gay people are often surrounded by girls(either as friends or relatives).


The fact that a person is homosexual doesnt mean he/she hates the opposite sex.

Seun:
I agree with you that the core doctrines of Islam are more coherent and straightward than those of Christianity. This is because Islam was created largely by one man while Christianity evolved through a chaotic process involving many people - the Jewish scribes, Jesus, Peter, Paul, the bishops at the council of Nicea, etc.

However, this does not mean that Islam is a rational religion. The biggest proof of this is the way Muslims react whenever their religion is criticized or lampooned. That is not the way rational people respond to criticism. If your beliefs are rational, you don’t need to resort to butchery when they are challenged or lampooned. You can just calmly explain why you are right.

I thought atheists don't believe in horoscopy?...your "yampyons" is a horoscope,right?

danvon:
I don't support oppression but to me Feminism=Lesbianism I don't see much difference, besides there's no oppression in Christian nations, not as if girls can't get Jobs

You always seem very quick to point out gayism and lesbianism is almost every character, are you sure you arent gay yourself?...it all looks like hypocrisy to me.



As for the topic, feminism is an individual ideology, any lady can choose to be a feminist; considering that the society is skewed towards patriachy, women usually feel cheated and marginalized. But in my opinion, gender equality is unfeasible and a pipe dream, we can only hope to achieve equity of genders,not equality.


In any case, kudos to feminists all over the world, I admire them for their bravery and strong will even in the face of daunting challenges.

Nothing more noble than a person willing to stand firm for a cause,and there is nothing more terrible than a person willing to die for a cause.

Very good development, Nigeria should concentrate on acquiring major stake in African institutions as a matter of foreign policy, we will definitely need such clout in the future.

Japan is quite far...and I don't imagine how a jew will fare in japan of all places.

Interesting, he does have a point on the self defence part, no one has the monopoly of violence; when you attack,it is only logical for you to expect retaliation. When there is no retaliation, more attacks will definitely follow as such weakness will be exploited.

But when there is a retaliation, negotiation will eventually follow, and the end product will be peace.

yanshDoctor:
oga why are arw you lying like this



in the 14century, the Portuguese already trade with Africans. sold lamp and taught them lamp lighting with oil.

the British visit bini 18 century. after Portuguese have exploit the land with trades and civilization. bini empire were early stage probably still naked at the time.

dont try to change history.

When I say they were the first to invent it, I mean in Africa,and relating it to the UK(the colonialists), Bini indeed had street lamps before they did. Please read my comment with objective scrutiny and intelligence.

yanshDoctor:
reasons i don't bother much on the unending garbage and unbecoming of the black race.

I beg to differ; not all Africans were "unclad" and uncivilized.

There were many African tribes that displayed outstanding innovation, some of them rose up to conquer their neighbours and form empires. Take for example the Bini people of the great benin empire, they built massive walls round the capital city,and were the first to invent street lightening(using oil lamps) even before the UK got its first street lamp.


Many tribes excelled in arts and craft; sculpturing of brass and exotic wood,especially among the Nok and Bini people. Even warfare, like in the case of the Zulu people.


I understand the current socio-political situation in massively pushing people towards afro-pessism, but we should not mis-interprete history.


Some, not all,african people were unclad.

sonofthunder:
the fact that your post's baked in half-truths means that you still yet to swim out of said ignorance...

@ point 1; I believe you are taking said scripture of God not beholding evil out of context and no, doesn't really mean as He has kicked him out before, He would have done so again if He wanted to.

@ point 3, God is the least of the reasons for Job's misfortune even Job saw this how come you can't? reason I asked you to dutifully study said book to the end as many times as is needed for you to understand it. Same speck that obstructed Job's sight seems to be obstructing yours.

Yeah, suit yourself.

sonofthunder:
Job 37:22 Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible majesty.

37:23 Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.

37:24 Men do therefore fear him: ....................

You evidently are speaking from an ocean of ignorance, you should more dutifully return and study said book.

Ignorance?

Read Job 1:11-12,and then 2:3



If you still find it hard to comprehend, come back and I will give you more references.

Pierohandsome:
Muslims pay tithe u can ask. Though they dnt call it tithe they have what they call their own one tenth.

Tithe in islam?...do you have any kind of evidence of that?

I was wondering, if tithing is insurance against "satanic encroachment", what about muslims,jews,hindists,etc who don't pay tithe, but still experience prosperity, without disturbance?.


Apart from many successful atheists like Gates,Zuckerburg,Seun and co, there are millions of successful people on the planet that dont pay tithe, yet witness abundance; there are those who pay tithe,yet witness poverty, and yet again,there are those who dont pay tithe,and are in poverty.


When talking about tithing,many tend to forget that the world isnt made up of christians alone.

So what is the essence of tithing?.

tiredoflife:
And u are using yours
It won't happen if our society wasn't based against gays
U are mad
I repeat u are mad
May gays rape u
Thats if u are not even gay

What is the point of the gibberish you typed?, at least I was expecting you to highlight a point to tackle my opinion.



Please do try to communicate with intelligence(if you even have any) in the future.

tiredoflife:
Why are people cursing the man
Shabi many idiots here will say live and let's live
He is gay he doesn't matter what he does in his bedroom
We ve roads
Nepa
Fulani herdsmen
Corruption to deal with
Abeg he should be freed
He has done no wrong
The west is developing we are busy chasing gays

Nonsense

Please use your faculties, rape isn't synonymous to homosexuality,heterosexual rape incidence is more than ten times the number of gay rape annually.


Moreover, these gay rape crimes probably wouldnt be happening if our society wasnt so biased against them.

STILESGANG:
No bashing please

Well, perhaps 4/10, I have seen far more handsome guys here...even beautiful ones...
But you are cool though...

I think that through the next 30-50 years, Nigeria(and Africa) will witness a very high rise in atheism. Economic growth,improved standard of living,and industrial(technological) advancement will inevitably lead to a marked decline in mainstream religion(theism).


Africa is going through its own "dark ages", but it is only a matter of time.


But to state my opinion, I strongly believe that there is a God.

The seventh day adventist teach this too.


As for me, I believe in rebirth.
