Senior Lecturer, what about you?

I think that most if not all existing posts in Kwara State University (at least in your link) are for Non-Academic Positions......thanks though for bringing it to the notice of the general public.

A good analysis by Eghosajohnny, just slightly over 2M, assuming diggers do not charge very much for setting out and excavation.

What then can we say, sheer luck or destiny, that a man woke up just before his body could be embalmed...

Medics in this house, what are the likely causes of error in the pronouncement of death? How often can this occur in the present Nigerian society?

Kenyan authorities have launched an investigation into how a man declared dead in a hospital woke up alive in its morgue the next day.
Shocked mortuary workers at Naivasha hospital ran away when the body stirred and was seen to be breathing.
Paul Mutora, who had tried to kill himself by swallowing insecticide, was pronounced dead on Wednesday night.
The chief medic said the drug used to treat him slowed the heart beat, which may have led to the mistake.
The mortuary attendant and a worker took to their heels screaming”
"This might have confused medical personnel, but the victim was saved before he could be embalmed," Dr Joseph Mburu, the superintendent in charge of Naivasha District Hospital, was quoted by Kenya's Standard newspaper as saying.
According to the paper, Mr Mutora's father and other relatives visited the morgue on Thursday morning to view the body and then returned home to start funeral arrangements.
"But in the afternoon we were informed, he was alive and were left in shock," the father said.
A witness told the Star newspaper that when noises were heard inside the cold room: "The mortuary attendant and a worker took to their heels screaming."
Journalists photographed Mr Mutora later recovering on a male ward in the hospital in the lakeside town, 90km (55 miles) north-west of the capital, Nairobi,
"This was a mistake from the start and I apologise to my father," the patient said.[b][/b]

So far, I found 3 different persons with different options:

- The first person explained clearly that he could get the original thing, signed and stamped but without any official documentation at the headquarters. Deal was discontinued since my cousin needs a genuine and verifiable certificate.

- The second person wants all 250k upfront, even though he promised a genuine and documented certificate.

- The third person pulled out of the race after I asked him to give me a clear explanation of his own magic and why it would cost the 200k quoted.

- I got the fourth guy through a reference both of whom work at the NYSC. One of them is a director and I've spoken with him and even sent a contact to go and see him. So far, it seems to be the most credible option, since they can be traced to their homes/offices. Cost is 250k.

At this point, my cousin is following the 4th lead persons with work underway to have the certificate by January. Perhaps more interested persons should be able to get a cheaper bargain. Any interested person who wants to join forces together should email to: cherishodo@yahoo.com

Op, you won't kill person with laughter...cracking me up seriously

Do you know if there are plans for skype or phone interviews with shortlisted academic staff applicants still in the diaspora?

Nawa ooo, not even a text msg to notify candidates about the interview...

thanks jare for your update

Does it mean that no nairalander has attended or been invited to this interview?

Apart from an immediate compensation for anyone who can facilitate the procurement of NYSC exemption certificate, it's possible to assist the person or a relative with university admission (BSc/MSc/PhD) in central Europe.

Guys, abeg make una put mouth inside this matter Oooo
You can send me an email at cherishodo@yahoo.com

The house is coming out really nice, well done baba spyder.

^^^

Thank you for this info. I would like to know how this works, whether all the shortlisted candidates receive notifications for the interview.

segzy14: @ eghosa johnny,
u called me this afternoon that u are not happy with my comment, anyway if i have offend you with this comment, i sincerely apologise.
One love bro.

@Segzy14

I expect you to have apologized on the phone, rather than coming here to tell us about your conversation.

yokiti: why not visit NYSC office that is close to you? Let not this desperation lead you astray. Beware of scammers!!!

thank you sir for your kind advice. My cousin is not yet back into the country and people at the headquarters insisted that he must serve, even though he was 30yrs at the time of graduation. The 30yr threshold is complex.....not sure how NYSC handles cases for people who clocked exactly 30 (neither below nor above)

My people, please kindly advise on the best possible way to obtain an exemption certificate.

I have a cousin who studied overseas and was 30yrs when he finished his BSc. Abeg, what are his chances of getting an exemption from NYSC?
Do you know anyone who can facilitate this? This cousin of mine needs the certificate urgently, hence is willing to mobilize anyone who can help him procure a verifiable NYSC exemption certificate. A person who provides a good reference will be adequately compensated.

Thanks to you guys in advance.

Oga Spyder, well done ooo! May God continue to keep you and open more doors.

Abeg, if you have seen this kind of tiles while shopping around, about how much does each cost in m²? I'm planning to commence tiling of my small project.

Bardi.c:
Final year students of physiology and pharmaclogy under science lab tech were used to acomplish this research it was given to them as their project work, i no almost all the students dat worked on dat project especially anti venom dat stucked the students dried, still the school will nt send them for service and nw the same school is taken their glory. Dat is wickedness

My brother, I can imagine that students must have performed preliminary tests on the subject. But it would be unfair to allege that those academics are taking all the glory when the actual work hasn't even began. For your info, the proposed study will run for several years judging from the subject area and budget. I can bet that the actual experiments will be conducted by postgraduate/doctoral students, with most of the final sample processing/analytics performed in foreign laboratories. The depth of this particular scientific work is beyond what can be left to undergraduate students.

As a word of advice, you and your colleagues should try to publish your research findings as journal articles, to be able to lay claims to your work.

Xplicit.:
I appreciate u stanley.

You are welcome. I've just uploaded the file on your thread, hope you don't mind.

Good luck with the Immigration past questions (file attached)

You've got a good looking generator up there. Please cross-check its actual capacity (KVA) and correct the title of your post.

I think that your title is misleading, as a 50KVA generator may not be able to roll on those tiny wheels.

Happy sale!

@Ineco

So, what did you do about Paul's email, you sent him a reply or simply stopped following up on your application?

Has anyone heard from CSIRO or the recruitment agency?

Thank you

Thanks to you guys

Double posting, sorry.

Great speed despite all the unexpected challenges, kudos.

You've done well bro, truly Brabus

Congrats on completing this important milestone.

Reference: No difference on the surface but it depends on what the modification is targeted at, disease resistance, drought resistance, productivity, appearance, taste, whatever. Where a crop or animal is disproportionate, dysfunctional or just plain different, it is likely to be GM.

Ordinarily in western shops you find for instance perfect fruit and vegs. Most of these are not by natural selection but are GM to reduce field losses.

For those saying garri is exempt should think twice. The humble cassava plant has spent decades in the labs of the FAO and other local institutes. What we have today is far from what our fore-fathers planted.

If it sticks out, it is likely GM.

Well said Reference, thank you. Our government should compel shop owners to clearly label all GM products as in the developed countries.

vivavik: Lemme explain 2 ur understanding, GM foods was coined 4rm the word gene, gene-modified foods.they are basically foods tht has been modified 4rm thr planting material source, they used chemicals/substances 2 alter the gene of the crop/animal, thr function is 2 improve/facilitate the growth of these foods so as 2 meet up wt the world's growing population, they can modify these genes thru seeds or the parent material itself, by either deeping thm in the chemicals b4 planting or using improved fertilizers 2 speed up the growth rate. Its virtually in evry crop known, now for those who fink garri is not included, pls research again, cos cassava stems are deeped in this pesticides/insecticides, wch causes harms 2 the natural living organism in the soil, we have improved varieties of cassava and they are all GM foods. Tht is why scientist now encourage organic farming, meaning farming wtout artificial chemicals/fertilizers, they encourage the use of animal/plant dropping as fertilizers.pls don't fink its only the white tht practice GM planting,its evry whr in nigeria now, practically all our food, especially when u dnt knw the food source.

Just to add to your explanations of how a plant can be genetically modified...

First, applying fertilizers/pesticides to crops or dipping a plant material into chemicals is NOT genetic modification. As much as possible, I'll try to explain how the science works in plants. You'll appreciate the science if you try to understand the principle.

Now, if you isolate a piece of gene from any plant material, it is possible to select the particular gene that is of interest to you, take for instance a gene helping plants to cope with drought. Based on this, you can make several copies of your gene and then carefully put these gene copies into a particular kind of bacteria via electroporation.

Then the fun part - grow the bacterial cells under optimal conditions and they will replicate/multiply to give you a lot more cells. Take the leaf of any plant and clean it thoroughly, sometime we just sterilize it.
Under sterile condition, gently mix your cell culture such that the bacteria will infect your sterile leaf. Prior to this you can make rough cuts on the leaf to enhance infection. What happens is that your bacteria will transfer the isolated gene to the leaf. You can use any leaf for this purpose. Simply culture the infected leaf in sterile agar with the required nutrients under lab condition to develop tiny roots. You will find several shoots protruding from the leaf and these will grow into normal plants possibly with your gene of interest. There are ways to verify whether your gene was eventually passed into the leaf/plant. Nature your plant until you're sure they can be transferred to your greenhouse.

You have just potentially modified a plant genetically! This same gene transfer happens in nature in billions everyday, yet as a people we do not rise up to question nature. I personally think that it's more worrying when it occurs randomly in nature, rather than a planned & scrutinized piece of science. I'll try to explain why it's important to advance this science in a controlled way.

Make I first chop, I dey come back

My brother, baba God is your strength!
