My opinion would be that you go with Physics. I am a graduate of Physics also and I can tell you from experience that I have gotten several job offers and even rejected many.

It also depends on how you positioned yourself

A man, his wife, son and house help were involved in an accident today Sunday 13th Feb. 2022 along kaduna road. They were traveling from Lapai in Niger state. None of them survived the accident.

May their soul rest in peace.

It's funny how some of us quickly jump to conclusion. What makes you think everyone you see want to scam you?
Nobody is making the thread irrelevant. But the truth that is undeniable is that many people open their whatsapp more frequently than they come on this thread. The whole essence is to share information quicker.
You mustn't join the group if you are not interested. Also the creation of the group does not render the thread useless. Information are still posted on both platforms.
Statistically, everyone open their whatsapp more frequently than the logged on to nairaland.

Peace

People were on sunday (28/11/2021) thrown into pandemonium in Agaie Local Government Area of Niger State as a beggar accused of scamming people of their hard-earned money.
The beggar who was identified as Abubakar from Kwara was said to have possessed some magical powers who his victims are those that give him charity.
Some residents that begging has been the suspect's business for a long.
"This has been his long-existing attitude in several markets across the state... Once you give him charity the remaining money in your pocket will go to him."
An eyewitness who pleaded anonymity said.
Niger State Latest News gathered that in a reaction to the matter, Agaie Local Government Committee on Revenue and Market Supervision has banned the suspect Abubakar from all the markets within the Local Government area and further instructed the general public to report him to the securities if found in any of its markets.

NECO FAILED TO PAY MARKERS 55 DAYS AFTER THE MARKING OF SCRIPT

The National Examination Council (NECO) has again failed to pay the Chief Examiners and Assistant Examiners who participated in the marking of the 2021 Internal Examination even though the result has since been released. This has become a recurrent case because a similar issue was reported during the 2020 examination where the markers were paid after about 3 to 4 months.
It is unfortunate that nothing seems to be done right in this country. WAEC concluded coordination and marking on Saturday 6th of November and has already paid the markers just 2 days after. Our own indigenous exam body loves to see workers suffering before they pay the token.
Deuteronomy 24:14-15 says “Do not take advantage of a hired worker who is poor and needy…. Pay them their wages before sunset because they are counting on it. Otherwise they may cry to the Lord against you”.
NECO what is our offence? Pay us our money otherwise, we shall consult village people on top una matter.

For: Concern Examiners……

Best of luck.

vikgreen01:
In kwara everybody was screened.
But there’s discrimination. If u got invites or your name is on their list u will be treated specially with more processes to do I think. The last two batch I pertake (I was in the last batch thou), people with invites were asked to signify nobody raise hand, this is candidates of over 1k they even call names from their list, nobody answer. The uninvited candidates only did signing of oath, 2km walk, height taking and submitting of documents together with the best of luck statement at the end.

I was there too . May God favour us all.

For gatecrashers, coordination start today saturday. Just go to the marking centre.

ImmaculateJOE:

Unfortunately I'm not qualified, no NYSC cert.

Another Final Year Student in a Federal University in Nigeria has been spotted by the school authorities with an Examination Malpractice Shirt.

It’s been a very trendy month this July as the internet as been raging hot since the news of Uniben’s Peace Ufuoma being investigated by the School authorities for wearing a shirt that said, “Aggressive malpractice brought me this far”.

According to be report by , Department of Microbiology, University of Benin has constituted a committee to probe the results of a female student, who marked her graduation in a controversial shirt.

Some weeks ago, a video had gone viral on social media which featured the young lady, Peace Ufuoma, wearing a shirt that reads ‘aggressive malpractice brought me this far’.

In a meeting on Tuesday, July 13, the management of the institution begun investigating all the results of the lady and a report is to be given within a week.

The memo sighted online by Siggy correspondent was signed by the department’s head, S.E Omonigho, and directed to one Prof I. O Enabulele to head the committee.

There had been reports on Wednesday that the student was asked to rewrite all her papers from her level two till the end of level four.

The report also alleged that the school management is of the opinion that Peace Ufuoma be used as a scapegoat to tell every student of the University of Benin that examination malpractices are not allowed within her walls.

In yet another unconfirmed report released on the evening of the same wednesday, the spokesperson for the University of Benin, Benedicta Adeola Ehanire, has said there is no report yet from the panel set up to investigate a 400-level student, Peace Ufuoma, who is under probe for alleged exam malpractice.

Everyone has had one of two things to say about the incident but the fact remains that the University of Benin has made her point clear in publicly declaring that she has no room for malpractices of all sort and offenders will be prosecuted squarely.

Amidst all these drama, another photo surfaces online of a young male graduate of a yet to be identified University boldly showing this sign-out shirt which read, “Cheated in every Exam”.

A source has reported that the school authorities have started to take the “Uniben move”. They might have to start investigating into his record to find loopholes.

What is going to be the end of this? Are they going to take any drastic decision against the young man?

QuickFact!

Africa is a continent with a total of 54 countries. The entire population of Africa is about 1.34 billion. The United States of America is a country (not a continent) consisting of 50 States (just as we have 36 states in Nigeria). Among the 50 States in the US, is the state of California. The population of the state of California is about 39.5 million which is 0.03% of the population of Africa. The total GDP of all the countries in Africa is about 2.6 trillion dollars. The total GDP of the state of California is about 3.09 trillion dollars. The state of California GDP alone is greater than the GDP of the whole of Africa. Maybe it is because California have Silicon Valley. Most high tech companies such as facebook, google, oracle, eBay, Intel, Cisco, Apple, PayPal, HP, Microsoft and so on are located in Silicon Valley in California. The revenue from Silicon Valley alone no be here oooo. In naija, we have computer village too sha.
Tech drives the world.
Nigeria will continue to borrow and suffers economic kwashiorkor if in this time, our focus is on cows and grazing route.

Awake o' sleeping giant of Africa.
It is high time we look inward and bring out the ingenuity in our youth to build African nations that will take its rightful place among comity of nations.
