With 19 points from 10 matches, FC IfeanyiUbah are the new leaders of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL). The Nnewi-based team defeated visiting Plateau United 2-0 to overtake Enugu Rangers at the top of the log. Rangers could only draw 1-1 with MFM of Lagos at the Agege Stadium yesterday to arrive at 18 points. Yesterday’s win was masterminded by Cote d’Ivoire’s Pascal Seka and Tamen Medrano, a Camerounian, who came off the bench to consolidate IfeanyiUbah’s lead after Seka had given the home side an 18th minute lead from the spot when goal-bound Bright Onyedikachi was brought down inside the box. At the Agege Stadium, Enugu Rangers threatened to inflict the first home loss on MFM when former Flying Eagles’ star, Obinna Nwobodo, put the Flying Antelopes ahead in the 36th minute. But the Godwin Enarkhena boys drew level in the 68th minute through Stephen Odey. In other games of the day, 3SC and Giwa FC defeated visiting Ikorodu United and Kano Pillars 2-0 respectively, while Lobi Stars were held to a 1-1 draw by Wikki Tourists and hosts Tornadoes forced Sunshine Stars to a 2-2 draw. Abia Warriors recorded their first away win in Uyo where they beat Akwa United 2-1, but Niger Tornadoes forced Sunshine Stars to a 2-2 draw.

The letter written by an Ardent fan, @Tiwatopeola goes: Linda is a woman in her late 30’s, single, successful and also a role model to some young women. She is well known for her gossip blog which she makes millions from. She wasn’t born with a silver spoon but she worked hard and bought herself a diamond spoon. She also has a house worth half a billion. Wow, that’s quite an achievement but she tends to forget that everything isn’t about the money or the fame. I’ve read some of her inspirational write-ups and she sounds like a Christian. The Bible she read says ‘whoever restrains his words has knowledge’.It’s a blogger’s job to write and cover stories. Writers have a wild knowledge of imagination and can use it in diverse ways. You can write about anything but you shouldn’t write about everything. I read news about celebrities especially musicians. You bring the ups and downs of their personal life on air without confirming if they are true or false but now, I’m wondering why you don’t write about your personal life. Are you deliberately keeping a low profile life style? Or there is nothing really going on in your personal life and family?I want to believe that you don’t have a perfect life and you are not flawless. Everybody is hustling just like you but it won’t be nice if you purposely write hurtful things about them. If you write the positive aspect of what they do,it still doesn’t change your social status because you are famous already. Nobody likes their private life flying around in the air. Some celebrity’s marriages have gone down the drain because of what some writers write about them. ‘What goes around comes around’. You enjoy it when you write about people but you might not find it funny when you read what people write about you. I think you are inspiring someone to be a great blogger like you are, that means your stories are not safe because someone out there will dig out your deepest secret and put it out there. You can’t just paint yourself in a perfect way. Your million naira house, car, designers and how you don’t sleep with men for money isn’t enough for us. You might not sleep with men for money, it might be ‘just for fun’ you know, lol. You might have even purchased your house on loan but you definitely won’t tell us that. The designers you wear may be imitations but you won’t say it just to keep that expensive profile. Well, we the younger ones are watching. You are supposed to positively help Nigerian musicians, not telling us their dirty part. Actually, no one is perfect – we all have that other, dirty, dark part. Source: helpspread.net

Article written by Nigeria's Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun Writing this, my third article on the economy, I’m keenly aware that the question Nigerians want answered is: what is government doing to address our economic challenges? The first thing to state is that there are no quick fixes, but our strategy is clear and the expected outcomes are pretty compelling. Our immediate economic imperative is to provide a Keynesian stimulus to reflate the economy. The 2016 focus is underpinned by a desire to radically reposition Nigeria’s economy. This administration believes very strongly that the previous direction was far from optimal. We are pursuing a fresh direction consistent with our belief in building a resilient economy. The strategy itself is worth reiterating. The 2016 Budget is being debt funded and the borrowings are targeted at the financing of capital projects to address the infrastructure deficit, create jobs and build the platform for optimisation of the non-oil economy that will see Nigeria prosper. To this end, we have commenced an aggressive programme of fiscal housekeeping: increasing revenues and reducing recurrent expenses. This will ensure that we move towards our objective of financing recurrent expenditure from revenue, rather than borrowing as obtained before now. In addition, we have signalled through our financial decisions that we are moving away from oil. Government investment in oil will be limited. We are inviting private sector participation in the funding of cash calls for our Joint Ventures rather than tapping the Federation Account. This is guaranteed to improve our cash flow. As I have stated previously, oil is important but oil is not enough. Therefore, if faced with an option to invest borrowed funds in our railways or power or fund oil cash calls, we will strategically fund non-oil. This is in the knowledge that there are private sector solutions to the funding needed for oil, but few sources other than government for investment in physical infrastructure. The debate about whether Nigeria should borrow is well intentioned and cannot be dismissed without careful analysis, given our antecedents as a nation. I am in agreement with those who argue that Nigeria should not borrow simply because its debt to GDP level is low enough to accommodate such borrowing. There must be a clear business case backed by justifiable benefits. I believe that Nigeria has such a case at the present time. Simply put, we need capital investment to grow our economy. At 13% debt to GDP, we compare favourably with the threshold of 30% for developing economies. Our low debt to GDP ratio is not exactly a positive attainment because it is accompanied by critically low level of infrastructure investment. It is actually a false economy. Low capital formation is a risk which, if uncorrected, hinders future economic growth and this is already evident. Borrowing, as we propose, will increase debt to GDP to 16% and still leave us significantly lower than our peer group including Ghana at 70%, South Africa at 50% (2015) and Angola at 31% (2014). Appropriate levels of fiscal deficit have been used to grow many of the most successful global economies. As ours develops, our sources of revenue will grow, diversify, and become less susceptible to external shocks. Our need to borrow will reduce accordingly. It’s important to note that capital spending creates an asset, and this gives a return over time in the form of growth. Infrastructural projects such as rail and roads create jobs, generate taxes and stimulate further spending. This is the economic multiplier effect that capital spending brings. Therefore, while an increase in public spending may create a deficit in the short term, the resultant increase in productivity will lead to a higher rate of economic growth and greater tax revenues. According to the International Finance Corporation (IFC), for every one billion US dollars invested in infrastructure in developing economies, between 49,000 and 110,000 jobs are created. Our borrowing policy will remain conservative and will see us access the lowest available funds, hence our decision to approach multilateral agencies in the first instance, for budget support at concessional rates as low as 1.5% per annum. We have also secured commitments from Export Credit Agencies that are tied to specific capital projects including key initiatives in power, transport and other infrastructure, and at semi-concessional rates. The balance will be sourced commercially to create a blended cost of capital that’s as low as possible. We are addressing the relatively high debt service to revenue ratio which saw 28.1% of our 2015 revenues devoted to debt. This will be done through a systematic restructuring of inherited debt portfolio into a profile that is aligned with our medium term outlook as well as an increase in our revenues. Borrowing is not our primary focus. Increasing our Internally Generated Revenue is critical because it is sustainable; and because much of the funds collected went unremitted to Government – something we are tackling now. Our Revenue Team holds daily revenue sessions with MDAs during which clear targets are set and agreed; monitoring and evaluation are continuous. We are deploying cash-less revenue collection processes in our high earning agencies to ensure maximisation of our receipts. We are working through Treasury Single Account balances with a view to identifying monies that can potentially be used to fund the budget and reduce borrowing. Other costly leakages are being blocked. We have completed a detailed review of tax and duty waivers and discovered that in some cases, Nigeria lost significant revenues and with limited benefits. We are set to begin consultations with stakeholders on a revised policy aligned with the best interests of Nigeria. Furthermore, we are identifying funds that can be released from hitherto untapped sources, including idle and underutilised government assets that have commercial potential including real estate. To this end, Ministry of Finance Incorporated (MOFI) is to become a professionally operated Asset Manager, rather than a passive holder of government assets. It will be actively managed to ‘sweat’ Nigeria’s very valuable global asset portfolio. This will generate earnings and constitute additional budget funding. Gradually and with the requisite safeguards, we will authorise the investment of part of the estimated N6Tn currently held in pension funds into key infrastructure that will provide workers with higher returns on their pension funds while enhancing capital formation and economic growth. Nigeria’s first ever Project Tied Infrastructure Bonds are being designed. These are novel structures that will see borrowings tied to specific revenue generating projects, bringing private sector financial discipline to the project structuring and delivery process, thereby improving value. Our first quarter-planned release of N350Bn is ready and is sure to have significant impact, in addition to exploring opportunities to reduce contract prices. Our conditions for release of funds are clear and the mandate is a simple one: to define and agree the number of Nigerians to be engaged as a result of this funding. Priority will be given, without apology, to those creating jobs and opportunity for Nigerians. This level of investment, predominantly capital, exceeds the total capital spend for the whole of 2015 and the tempo will be sustained until the green shoots of recovery begin to appear. John Maynard Keynes’ famous quote on fiscal stimulus - that when economies are depressed, “Government should pay one man to dig a hole and pay another to fill it back” - is an extreme example and suggests an economic benefit in seemingly pointless activity. In Nigeria’s case, the activity to be triggered will be a fully productive one. We will pay men and women to meet our critical needs in power, transport, housing, agriculture, solid minerals, health and education - and lay the foundation for a collective future that is more positive than our current situation may suggest. One of Nigeria’s greatest strengths is the resilience of her people. Even beyond our shores it is widely acknowledged that if you can survive in Nigeria, you can thrive anywhere. Our ability to overcome obstacles and our ingenuity in exploiting opportunities, are legendary; our economic policy will ensure more of us succeed in creating wealth. There is sufficient diversity of opportunity which our capital investment can unlock. We will always celebrate the emergence of billionaires, of course, but we recognise that a thousand millionaires have greater fiscal impact. Therefore, where the number of private jets was touted in the past as a measure of success, we will take pride in the number of people lifted out of poverty, and the number of new jobs created. The idea that Nigeria can succeed this time is, for some, unthinkable. But for those of us privileged to be part of this determinedly patriotic team led by President Muhammadu Buhari, it is and will be possible. Mrs. Kemi Adeosun is the Honourable Minister of Finance, Federal Republic of Nigeria. lindaikejisblog.com/2016/04/financing-our-future-by-kemi-adeosun.html

Are you attracted to a girl but don’t know how to get her interested in you? Use these 10 ways on how to make a girl want you sexually to do just that. Girls may get drawn to a guy for his personality. But even if you’re a guy with a great personality, it’s easy to end up becoming just a friend instead of a lover. But if you want to make a girl want you and desire you sexually, read on. How to make a girl want you Girls love great guys who are a lot of fun to be with. But then, there are a lot of great guys all around. And when you’re attracted to a girl who is drop dead gorgeous and can get the attention of any guy she wants, it’s not easy to make her desire you sexually. But there are ways, really easy ways. Most guys are too afraid to make a move on a girl who’s very good looking because they’re afraid to get spurned. Don’t be one of those guys. But when you’re trying to impress a girl you know, don’t make it obvious that you like her too soon either. If she doesn’t like you yet, she may end up distancing herself from you to avoid any awkward moments. Instead, behave like a friend. 10 steps to making a girl want you sexually If you find yourself getting really attracted to a friend who’s getting a lot of attention already, you can definitely make her desire you and want you. All you need to do is play it safe and slow by using these steps to turn her on and make her want you. #1 Be a good friend. Sometimes, behaving like a friend can be the easiest way to a girl’s heart. But there’s a very thin line between being a friend that she’s attracted to and being a friend she considers a brother. If you want her to want you, be a good friend who’s there for her, but don’t always be there for her. Speak to her when she’s around, but make sure she sees you flirting with other girls now and then too. Don’t be the friend who’s going to give a shoulder to lean on. Instead, be the friend who talks about current events and fun things. She’s got to love your company to start with, but she should never feel like you’re an indispensible friend. If you go wrong here, you may just end up getting into her friend zone and lose all hope of sleeping with her. #2 Flirt with her. Try to spend time with her when she’s alone. If her other friends are with her, you can avoid her or just wave a hello and move on after a quick chat. The more you hang out with her as just a friend, the lesser the chances of you ever making her desire you. Spend time with her only when she’s all by herself. That’ll give you enough time to date talk her and discreetly flirt with her. Flirt with her, make her feel warm and awkwardly nice while hanging out with you. And treat her just like you would treat your girlfriend, but don’t ever call her your girlfriend though. #3 Don’t be possessive. You may like her a lot and hate all the other guys that flirt with her. But you know what, you don’t own her. And she’s not your girlfriend. So never behave possessively or prevent her from meeting or talking to other guys. You’ll end up losing her because you’ll become a creepy guy. Instead, have your own life, but give her your time when you bump into her or have some alone time together. Don’t be stuck at her hip. She’ll never fall for you and you’ll end up becoming her doormat. #4 Be her secret life. As I said earlier, spend a lot of time with her and flirt with her, but do that only when she’s by herself. Create a secret relationship that no one knows about other than the both of you. By doing this, you’ll make the relationship more exciting and thrilling. Become a part of her life, text her often at night when you know she’s alone, talk about personal issues, and indulge in everything a couple would do. But keep the relationship a secret. #5 Make her miss you. Now this is tricky but also a lot of fun. Once both of you are closer and like spending time with each other, call her every night for a week or so. And then, don’t call her one day. If she meets you or texts you the next day asking why you didn’t call, she obviously missed you and wanted to speak with you! Flirt with her and charmingly ask her if she missed you because you didn’t call. Use different ways to make her miss your company and constantly create scenarios where you force her to realize that she actually likes you and misses you when you aren’t around. #6 Confession time. Confessions are the best way to open a girl up. Of course, she won’t start confessing about her sexual escapades to you just yet. You need to warm her up to it. During one of your late night calls, tell her that you bumped into one of your exes who was a Hot wild cat. The girl you like will obviously be curious and would want to know more about your ex. Use this excuse to go into the details of your sex life. Be patient and start funny, and get more descriptive and add explicit Hot details as the conversation goes on. If you play this game carefully, speak softly and make sure you describe the events like an erotic story, she can’t help but visualize you naked. And chances are, she’ll also be wet down there just listening to you! #7 Talk sex. If you’ve pulled off your sexual confession without a hitch and she liked what you had to say, she’s definitely turned on now. Ask her about a Hot experience from her past. She may hesitate at first, but pester her just a bit. If she’s Hot, she definitely wouldn’t mind getting into details. And as she tells her stories, gasp and talk like you’re imagining the whole thing. It’s be a huge turn on for both of you. #8 Get her to talk dirty with you. You may wonder if all these steps are even possible, but you won’t believe how easy it is to get a girl talking dirty in a nighttime conversation until you’ve tried it. Trust me, it’s really easy, as long as you’ve warmed her up with your Hot stories. Now that you’ve got her confessing all her dirty deeds to you, it’s time you get yourself into the picture. Compliment her for being such a naughty girlfriend, and discreetly tell her how awesome it would have been if you were her boyfriend. Saying that will definitely spark a fire of lust because she’ll know exactly where you’re going with the conversation. Speak softly, don’t get overexcited and don’t stop with the dirty questions. #9 Have phone intimacy. If you’ve used the list of dirty questions while talking to her, chances are, both of you are already really Hot. Now start creating imaginary situations to turn her on even more. Tell her something like “I wish I was there right now, there’s so much I would want to do…” And when she whispers back softly and asks you what you’d do, you’ve hit jackpot. Describe what you’d do to her in detail, starting off from kissing her neck to taking her top off to whatever else you have in mind. Avoid talking about kissing her on the lips straight away though, it’s too personal and straightforward for a few girls. And before you know it, both of you would be talking dirty and having phone intimacy with each other! #10 Ask her out. Well, so now you’ve made her want you and crave for you sexually. But what’s next? You just had phone intimacy with her. You’re on a high, but don’t end it right there. Ask her if she’d like to meet you, or go out on a date with you the next day. She’d be too Hot to resist. And when both of you meet up on a date, it’ll probably end with both of you having sex or falling in passionate love. Either ways, you’ve got the girl of your dreams wanting you and craving for you sexually. Could you ask for anything more? If you want to know how to make a girl want you and think of you sexually, use these 10 steps I’ve mentioned. If you play it calm and safe, you could be in bed with the girl of your fantasies in a couple of weeks! Feel Free to add urs!!! Source:LovePranky

The Islamic State militant group has released a video on Tuesday, suggesting it may carry out further attacks in the West, naming London, Berlin and Rome as possible targets. A report from Cairo said the video which showed images of the UK Parliament and Eiffel Tower crashing to the ground also showed footage of the Paris and Brussels attacks as well as 9/11 strikes, calling previous massacres a “cautionary message’’. A member of the militant group narrated in English with a thick Arab accent that the ISIS terrorists carried out the suicide bombings and shootings in Paris to wipe out ‘kuffars’ or non-Muslims. “If it was Paris yesterday, and today Brussels, Allah knows where it will be tomorrow. Maybe it will be in London or Berlin or Rome. “Nations of the cross, this message is for you. Know that your options are few, either you join Islam, or pay tribute, or freeze the war. The video also showed other iconic European landmarks such as the Rome’s Coliseum interplayed with footage of executions and beheadings from Syria and Iraq. “The soldiers went out to the ground and street of Paris and killed the kuffars. “This invasion was just a cautionary message to the nations of the cross,” it said. The group also claimed responsibility for bombings that killed 31 people in Brussels in March and attacks in Paris last November that killed 130. (Reuters/NAN)

A woman in Onicha Uboma Autonomous Community in the Ihitte/Uboma Local Government Area, Imo State, identified only as Ifeoma allegedly killed her one-year-old child, gorged out her eyes and drank her blood. According to Daily Independent, the 39-year-old woman was alleged to have committed the heinous act inside her husband’s shop. Mr. Azubuike Emedom returned from a business trip to find his wife and child missing. “It was gathered that after searching for them in the neighbourhood without result, Mr. Emedom proceeded to his shop, although he thought it abnormal for them to be in the shop that early. When he got to the shop, he discovered that the shop was locked from the inside, but after repeated knocks and Ifeoma’s failure to open the door, Mr. Emedom was said to have broken down the door, only to find his wife inside, blood on her mouth and the baby wrapped in blood stained cloth. Mr. Emedom uncovered the baby, he discovered that she had died, even as her eye balls were plugged out and blood gushing from the sockets. The baby’s hands and legs were also broken.” A community leader who spoke under anonymity claims that Ifeoma is of a ‘marine spirit.’” “I believe she used this child for sacrifices, she sucked the blood of the child because by the time we caught her, her mouth was full of blood. She killed the baby intentionally. She always renders sacrifice to their gods in the river. Some months ago, she attempted to kill a woman from our community. She injured the woman with a knife,” he said. The suspect has been arrested and detained at the Ihitte/Uboma Police station. Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Andrew Enwerem, the Police Public Relation Officer of the Imo Police Command who confirmed the story said investigations were on going.

That's right—he rescues you from hidden traps, shields you from deadly hazards. His huge outstretched arms protect you— under them you're perfectly safe; his arms fend off all harm. Fear nothing—not wild wolves in the night, not flying arrows in the day, Not disease that prowls through the darkness, not disaster that erupts at high noon. Even though others succumb all around, drop like flies right and left, no harm will even graze you. You'll stand untouched, watch it all from a distance, watch the wicked turn into corpses. Yes, because God's your refuge, the High God your very own home, Evil can't get close to you, harm can't get through the door. He ordered his angels to guard you wherever you go. If you stumble, they'll catch you; their job is to keep you from falling. You'll walk unharmed among lions and snakes, and kick young lions and serpents from the path. 14-16"If you'll hold on to me for dear life," says God, "I'll get you out of any trouble. I'll give you the best of care if you'll only get to know and trust me. Call me and I'll answer, be at your side in bad times; I'll rescue you, then throw you a party. I'll give you a long life, give you a long drink of salvation!" |
"[When asked, "Dr. Einstein, why is it that when the mind of man has stretched so far as to discover the structure of the atom, we have been unable to devise the political means to keep the atom from destroying us?"] He answered ; "That is simple, my friend. It is because politics is more difficult than physics. For tens of decades, man has achieved tremendous success in developing technologies but it has failed woefully in preventing the political effects of such technologies. That takes us to the definition of politics as put forward by Harold Laswell which states "Politics is who gets what, when and how?". This may be seen as the most narrowed definition of politics but it best describes the intricacies of politics and reaffirms the fact that politics is "interest driven" . On August 1945, The United States, With the consent of the United Kingdom as laid down in the Quebec Agreement, dropped nuclear weapons on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during the final stage of World War II. The two bombings, which killed at least 129, 000 people remain the only use of nuclear weapons for warfare in the history of mankind. The use of Weapon of mass destruction by the United States would have been unnecessary if man had a generally accepted means of solving political knots. The ten worst acts of terrorism ever committed in the history of mankind were viable owing to the inability of man to devise political means of preventing the same atom they created from destroying them. These terror acts include : 1. 9/11 attack against the United States by the AL Queada network. 2. Yazidi Communities bombing on August 14, 2007. 3. Al Hillah Bombings against Shia Muslims on March 6, 2007. 4. Baghdad bombings on April 18, 2007. 5. Mumbai Train bombings on July 11, 2006 in India. 6. Sadr City Bombings on November 23, 2006 in Baghdad, Iraq. 7. London Transport Bombings on July 7, 2005. 8. Supper ferry 14 bombings. The world's deadliest terrorist attack at sea on February 27, 2004. 9. Madrid train bombings, also known as "11-M" which is considered the most tragic terrorist attack in Europe on March 11, 2004. 10. Bali bombings on the October 12, 2002 in the tourist district of Kuta, considered the deadliest act ever in the history of Indonesia. As Aristotle rightfully puts it; "man is naturally, a political animal". Man is driven by interest and can go miles to satisfy such interest. In International relations, national interest of state actors and the interest of non-state actors constitute a top priority in its relations with other states and organizations/institutions of the world. The failure of man to eliminate totally the use of the breakthrough in physics to achieve her interests best explains the difficulty in politics. In as much as this maybe difficult to admit, politics remain the only field man is yet to conquer as political puzzles still beg for interpretation. The inexplicable truth is that; issues in contemporary international relations such as proliferation of nuclear weapons, armed conflicts e.t.c can't be successfully de barred because the world may never get it right politically. Politics is not a means to an end, it's an end itself. NOTE BIEN : The above anecdote of Albert Einstein describing "politics as more difficult than physics" was shared by Grenville Clark of Dublin, New Hampshire, in a letter he wrote to the New York Times after learning about the news of the death of Einstein on April 18, 1955. It was published on 22 Apr 1955. # Okebe Philips, a political analyst/strategist, writes from Enugu, Nigeria. Philipsokebe@gmail.com

I dun tire for the story sef... |
[color=#006600][/color]OP, no lemme vex for you oooo... Shey na same Uni I attend? Do you know what average Abia Poly computer science students and graduates are doing with their PCs? Mehn, these guys are fucking good. What does an average UNN computer science graduate know? NOTHING. BLOCK HEADS. Can you compare ur best University here in Nigeria with University of Ghana? Or Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and technology, Kumasi? Make una no de deceive una selves. LIFE TESTIMONY: I had very intelligent lecturers back in my University days but some of these guys were so full of themselves that they hardly come to classes. I had not less than 7 professors in my department, Political science which also houses public administration. But after my second year first semester, I stopped attending the classes of those pompous lecturers. I began to develop myself. I will always make researchers, engage my seniors in educative debates and read when necessary tho I'm not a bookworm. As difficult and deadly as the department of political science could be, ask anybody studying that course, I was the second best graduating student of 2014 set with over 250 students with a CGPA of 3.89. NB: My lecturers didn't make me, I made myself. It's all about self development people. Today, I help my boss who is a lecturer in writing his textbooks. A Poly student can be better than that Unilag graduate with a 5.00CGPA. It's all about self development. #Bye |
makazona:Hehehehehehe......... M waiting bruh... I love challenges. If m schooled. I will ask my Alma mater to withdraw my Second class upper. Please, mail me when you see any!!! |
I studied a social science course (Pol. Science) which polytechnics doesn't offer. The truth of the matter is that while Nigerian universities are good in terms of theory, Nigerian polytechnics are better in practical terms. Disbelieve at ur own peril, you can't compare a Mechanical engineering or computer engineering student of Auchi or Lautech or Abia Poly with that of University of Ibadan, Futo, Futminna, UNN, who's IQ are on par. That of the former will school that of the later in the practical field anytime, any day. The edge, a university student has is his or her ability to educate you on a discipline because of their strong foundation in theory. I graduated from a university so I have a first class knowledge of what m putting forward here. A graduate of public administration from a polytechnic can't stand me, I will reduce him or her to nothing, that's because m well rooted in the discipline as it is theoretically inclined. There are 400l nursing students in universities who can't attend to a patient that needs intensive care but they can make parallel A's. This is my take on this matter! |
Nice one bro buh pls reduce the suspense small so we don't get distracted n loose interest in the story... Thumbs up!!! |
This is mind blowing... More mb to ur phone donkross1 |
M considering Oyo state and Kaduna State cos I de plan to start my masters immediately after Nysc at either Ui or Abu... I rep Absu Jaree!!! |
I rep Absu Jaree... Our names de chill for Nysc website |
