Mass Communication is one of the courses most Universities in Nigeria want to offer from inception. In most parts of the World especially Western societies, this course is offered in the Media and Communication department, a title adopted basically to accommodate the dynamics of increasing sophistication of the society. Whether the course is called Media and Communication, Communication and Multi-media Studies, Communication Arts, or related names, the fact is that this discipline has basic requirements which Universities should have before offering the course to the public. But guess what, that’s not always the case. In fact, in most cases it is not so. Some universities that have National Universities Commission (NUC) accreditation are also guilty of providing below par training in Mass Communication due to lack of basic facilities. So here is a list of 15 top characteristics that you can use to know whether you are wasting your time in a particular institution thinking you are studying Mass Communication, Media and Communication or Communication Arts. I guess you were hoping to see an actual list of Universities that are guilty of this ‘scam’. Well, this is a safe presentation of those names. You may decide to mention your own school when you see these features. This list is based on a study conducted among some lecturers of Nigerian universities, including the use of NUC benchmark for departments of Mass Communication. If you notice some of these features in any department of Mass Communication, note that students in that department are victims of an official scam! Here are 15 characteristics of the worst places in Nigeria to study Mass Communication. 1. Absence of Functional Studio 2. Absence of Functional Lab 3. No Meaningful Practical Exercise 4. Lecturers Are Not ICT Compliant 5. Lecture Notes Are Virtually The same Every Year See details here to know which school is scamming Mass Comm students: https://massmediang.com/worst-universities-in-nigeria-to-study-mass-communication/

This is not just an ordinary bathtub. It is made of very special wood which is 180 million years old. Having your bath inside this bathtub can never be same as doing so in the usual bathroom or bathtub. You will definitely feel a transformation into some form of paradise you can hardly explain. This is why the rich don’t waste time to buy such priceless property once they are available. Found deep within the Indonesian rainforest, designer Nigel Fenwick transformed an ancient, petrified log into a ultra-rare bathtub. The price tops a similar bathtub, which sold for $1.7 million in the Emirate back in 2011. “The story behind this beautiful and extremely rare bathtub reveals a dramatic and risky journey in pursuit of the most perfect piece of art,” says designer and explorer Nigel Fenwick.

A man who has been dating a robot for two has revealed they were planning on getting married. He said he knew it was love “because it made my heart feel right”. Joey Morris fell head over heels with RoboTroll almost two years ago after being drawn to his ‘satisfied smile’ and ‘popping’ pink hair. The 29-year-old’s previous lovers include a lamp, a transformer truck and even a Halloween figurine. But the relationships didn’t last as Joey’s attention waned. He began dating RoboTroll in December 2017 after feeling ‘nostalgic’ and rekindled his love for the BattleTrollz collection online. Smitten Joey, from Taneytown, Maryland, US, was aged 10 when he realised he was objectum – meaning attracted to objects.

A bride is getting ‘roasted’ online for insisting on strict wedding guests demands which have been branded unrealistic. One her demands which has made social media users to brand her an ‘unreasonable tyrant’ is that wedding gifts must be worth $300 (about N108,000). Any guest who does not abide by the rules would sent out of the wedding venue. The bride-to-be from the US seems to have let things go to her head, according to her sister anyway. And things have gotten so intense that the sister no longer even wants to attend the wedding, let alone be involved with the planning, reports Mirror UK. The unnamed sister revealed all in a post on Reddit, where she claimed to have just received a list of “attendance requirements” for the wedding. Initially she thought the strict list of demands were a “joke” – but her mother soon confirmed they were very serious. This list included some ridiculous rules – such as men will not be allowed to have facial hair at the wedding and gifts must be worth at least $300 (about £230).

The 2019 edition of World Press Freedom Ranking has shown that Nigeria is still among the most unsafe countries to practice journalism. The counry’s ranking dropped to 120 from 119 it was placed in 2018. The world press freedom index is published by Reporters Without Borders, also known as Reporters Sans Frontieres (RSF). A total of 180 countries were captured in the survey with Norway ranked as the best country in terms of press freedom, and Turkmenistan, the worst. “Journalists are often threatened, subjected to physical violence or denied access to information by government officials, police and sometimes the public itself,” the report read. The “unprecedented level of disinformation” spread by officials within Nigeria’s two major political parties during the 2019 general election was also cited as one of the reasons Nigeria dropped to 120th position.

Don’t let the name of the school distract you from the seriousness of the story. Fire suspected to have been caused by electrical fault has gutted two blocks that housed six Guinea Fowl High School teachers and their families. The school is located just outside Gweru, a city in central Zimbabwe. This comes as a fire, also suspected to have started from an electrical fault, gutted part of Hatzell High School blocks in Mutare two weeks ago. No one was injured in the Guinea Fowl High School fire incident which broke out at around 5PM on Tuesday. Gweru City Council public relations officer, Mr Manford Gambiza told the Chronicle that the local authority’s Fire Brigade quickly responded and managed to put out the fire. “We were quite responsive as it took us 10 minutes to go and put out the fire. There was extensive damage to property. We suspect an electric fault.” The six teachers and their families have since been allocated temporary shelter in the school dormitories since they are vacant as learners are on holiday. Midlands Provincial Education Director, Reverend Tedious Matienga said no one was injured in the incident. The fire broke out at around 5PM on Tuesday. Rev Matienga said they were still assessing the extent of the damage caused by the fire. Read details here: https://massmediang.com/fire-destroys-guinea-fowl-high-school-teachers-blocks/

A woman has ended up in a hospital after attempting to remove fish bone stuck in her throat in the most bizarre way. She swallowed a spoon she was using to remove the bone. Doctors in Shenzen, China recently performed an emergency endoscopy to remove a 13-centimeter metal spoon from a woman’s duodenum, after she accidentally swallowed it while trying to dislodge a fish bone from her throat, reports Oddity Central. The patient, known only as Lily, reportedly swallowed the stainless steel spoon before the Qingming Festival on April 5, but didn’t bother going to the hospital until four days later, because she didn’t feel any pain in her stomach. She had apparently tried to use the metal spoon to remove a fish bone that had become lodged in her throat, but it accidentally slipped from her fingers and she ended up swallowing it. The woman only went to the hospital to complain about her problem four days after the incident. She told doctors at Shenzhen Nanshan Hospital last Monday what had happened, they ordered an X-ray and saw the large metal spoon stuck in her duodenum.

Professors, professionals and practitioners of communication in Nigeria presented new communication curricula to National Universities Commission (NUC). Proponents of the new curricula worked on it for over two years and have been advocating for its acceptance and adoption. They include professors and senior lecturers from the departments of mass communication/communication studies of numerous universities spread across the six geo-political zones of Nigeria. Others that were part of the advocacy for acceptance of the new curricula are regulatory agencies such as the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) and Nigerian Press Council (NPC); professional bodies such as the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Advertising Practitioners Council of Nigeria (APCON), Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) and Radio, Television and Theartre Arts Workers Union (RATTAWU); practitioners such as the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), print media journalists and the Director of Public Relations of the Nigerian Navy; and international development agencies such as UNESCO, UNICEF and the MacArthur Foundation. If you are interested in studying mass communication in Nigeria or you are a graduate of this discipline, seven new courses would be replacing this degree. Here are the seven independent degree-awarding departments which the new curricula seek to establish in place of mass communication: 1. Journalism & Media Studies 2. Public Relations 3. Advertising 4. Broadcasting 5. Film & Multimedia Studies 6. Development Communication Studies 7.Information & Media Studies Read details; https://massmediang.com/see-seven-powerful-courses-to-replace-mass-communication-degree-in-nigeria/

A man now living in Indiana is suing his parents after he says they destroyed his valuable porn collection. The plaintiff is identified in this story as “Charlie,” as this is a civil case without any associated criminal charges. The case dates back to October 2016 when, according to a lawsuit filed this week, Charlie moved into his parents’ home in Grand Haven after going through a divorce from his wife, reports Click2Houston. Charlie apparently stayed for 10 months in their home, doing housework in lieu of paying rent. He was asked to leave after police had to be called to the house in August of 2017 for a domestic situation. His parents allegedly traveled in November 2017 to his new place in Indiana to drop off possessions he had left at their home. Allegedly missing from the items they brought: Charlie’s massive pornography collection. See details: https://wakkinews.com/2019/04/14/man-sues-parents-for-destroying-his-porn-collection/

A deeply religious man is currently an internet sensation for choosing to abstain from food during Lent and focus on drinking only beer until Easter Sunday. People abstain from food or other pleasurable activities to during Lent as a way of getting close to God, so this man chose to keep away from solid food completely to drink only beer during this Lent season. This is probably his own way of ‘getting close to God’ during Lent. He streams this activity live on Facebook and YouTube, making him an internet sensation. Inspired by 17th century German monks who allegedly survived on a rich beer called doppelbock during Lent, an Ohio man has embarked on a 46-day beer diet, dropping all solid food until Easter Sunday. Many Christians choose not to consume beer during Lent, as a way of abstaining for something they find pleasurable, but Dell Hall, the director of sales at Fifty West Brewing Company in Cincinnati, Ohio, is doing the exact opposite. On March 6th, he embarked on a 46-day beer diet, dropping all solid food and getting his nutrients only from beer and vitamin supplements. Although he admits the first few days were rough, Hall claims he now feels amazing and is 25 pounds lighter than when he started. “Day two and three were pretty rough. I wanted to bash some Taco Bell after a few beers because that’s what we do,” Dell Hall told the Cincinnati Enquirer. “The last couple days I haven’t been hungry at all. I hope that’s going to be a good sign and I maintain this level of clarity.” Although the monks that inspired his diet consumed a hearty type of beer they called “liquid bread” due to the high levels of carbohydrates it contained, Hall has opted for variety, drinking whatever beer he craves at that moment. Dell has his first beer at around noon, when the hunger really kicks in, and then a few more after work. He also drinks black coffee, unsweetened tea and sparkling water to keep himself from getting sick of beer.

A 45-year-old Kenyan man, Nicholas Muchami, has used a spade, a hoe and an axe dig a road through thick bush to nearby shops to alleviate the sufferings of his fellow villagers. Muchami has so far cleared 1.5km (one mile) in six days - and has a short way to go to complete the road, reports The BBC. It is on land officially earmarked for it, but attempts to get local leaders to build it have failed, he says. He has been praised as a local hero for his efforts for Kaganda village. Residents of the village in Muranga County, which is 80km north of the capital, Nairobi, had been using a longer 4km route to get to the shopping centre. The BBC's Peter Mwai in Kenya says villagers had been upset because a shortcut to the shops, via a footpath passing through private land, had recently been fenced off . This prompted Mr Muchami to take action. "I have a lot of energy in me. I decided to volunteer," he told the BBC. He said he had worked from 07:00 to 17:00 local time last Monday to Saturday as he wanted to complete the road before the onset of the rains. People were incredulous that Mr Muchami, who usually earns his living doing odd jobs during the day and as a guard at night, had volunteered for the job.

Can you do this for your club? An Argentine man who did not want any of his family members to miss out on the celebration of a historic victory achieved by a club loved by the entire family had to involve his grand dad by exhuming his skull. He carried his grand dad’s skull around the streets during celebration party. The man is a fan of Racing Club, a football club in Argentina. Having only won two top-flight titles since 1966, Sunday’s draw against Tigre – which secured a third first division crown this century – was a big deal for Racing Club. Tens of thousands of supporters took to the streets of Buenos Aires to commemorate the win, congregating at the city’s obelisk monument — a famous meeting point for fans celebrating their team winning the Argentine league title. Such was the importance of the victory, in the case of one fan, not even death could stop him taking to the streets to celebrate. Not wanting a single member of his family to miss out on the historic victory, lifelong Racing fan Gabriel Aranda exhumed his dead grandfather’s skull and carried it around the streets of Buenos Aires to celebrate.

Two Arkansas men were arrested this week for taking turns shooting each other with a semi-automatic rifle while wearing a bulletproof vest. 50-year-old Charles Eugene Ferris was admitted to a Benton County hospital late last Sunday with a red spot on his upper chest. Doctors there notified police about the suspicious wound and in an interview with a deputy from the Benton County Sheriff’s Office, the man tried to come up with a plausible explanation. He claimed that an “asset” had paid him $200 for protection and after they met with a third individual at around 10 p.m. on Sunday, a gunfight ensued. The 50-year-old told police that he had been shot several times and returned fire before escaping in a car. Luckily, he had been wearing a bulletproof vest, but the asset brought him to the hospital anyway. Unfortunately, Ferris forgot to tell his wife his version of the story, so she spilled the beans on what really happened. According to Leslie Ferris, her husband Charles and his friend Christopher Hicks, age 36, had been drinking with Charles Hicks, 36, outside their home when gunfire erupted. She didn’t know the details, but after being confronted by investigators, Charles Ferris changed his story.

A man attempting to poach a rhino in the Kruger National Park was crushed to death by an elephant before being eaten by a pride of lions leaving behind his skull and a pair of pants, Daily Mail reports. Three of the victim’s friends ran away after the victim was crushed by the elephant and rang his family. The victim’s family contacted the park’s ranger service who launched a search on foot on Wednesday. The Kruger National Park Air Wing also searched for the victim’s body but had to return to base due to failing light. On Thursday, the search for the missing man was resumed. According to Don English, Skukuza Regional Ranger, the man’s body was recovered near the Crocodile bridge section of the park. According to Mr English: ‘Indications found at the scene suggested that a pride of lions had devoured the remains leaving only a human skull and a pair of pants.’ Glenn Phillips, managing executive of the reserve said: ‘Entering Kruger National Park illegally and on foot is not wise, it holds many dangers and this incident is evidence of that.

A woman has experienced the most bizarre ‘maternity’ story anyone can come across. The 19-year-old woman from the UK went from having no idea she was pregnant to giving birth to a healthy baby girl, literally overnight, after going to bed with a flat stomach and waking up with a full-on baby bump, reports Oddity Central. On the morning of July 17, 2018, 19-year-old Emmalouise Leggate got the shock of her life. She woke up with a baby where there hadn’t been one the night before. Alarmed, the teenager called her mom, who in turn contacted her grandmother Louise to see if she could make sense of the bulging belly. Louise could tell it was a baby bump the moment she saw it, so she drove Emmalouise to the hospital and had her wait in the car while she went in to find a midwife. Only by the time she came back, the teen had given birth in the backseat. She had only noticed the baby bump 45 minutes earlier. The midwife came out thinking I was about to give birth and it was an unknown pregnancy. She asked how long I thought I had and was I timing it,” the 19-year-old recalled. “But then opened the car door and she was already there. I had already given birth to her.” Except for missing her periods, which she assumed had something to do with being on contraceptive pills, Emmalouise had experienced no pregnancy symptoms. She had no morning sickness or unexplained cravings, never felt the baby kick and had no noticeable baby bump, so she never even considered getting a pregnancy test. “I had no bump. I had put on a bit of weight, so my mum was suggesting we go out walking and do different things to burn it off because I kept going on about my weight,” Emmalouise said. “The weight was across my full body, more in my arms, legs and face than anywhere else. My stomach never grew.” See details: https://wakkinews.com/2019/04/06/woman-goes-to-bed-with-flat-stomach-wakes-up-with-baby-bump-gives-birth-45-minutes-later/

Have you heard of sleeping g beauty syndrome? A student who can sometimes sleep for 22 hours a day has hit back at people who accuse her of being lazy. She is experiencing Kleine-Levin Syndrome, a condition that makes someone sleep non-stop for weeks, probably just waking up to eat, use the bathroom and fall asleep afterwards. Rhoda Rodriguez-Diaz, 21, suffers with the rare sleeping beauty syndrome which, at it’s worst, has left her sleeping for up to three weeks, waking up only to eat junk food, drink and go to the toilet. The condition got so bad that at one point she was kicked out of university for falling asleep during her exams, but has now been given a second chance. She said: ‘Life goes on whilst I’m sleeping. Reality hits me when I wake up and realise I’ve missed like a week of my life. ‘I feel a huge setback when it does happen. I miss out on so much. That’s the hardest part of it. ‘It’s hard to explain to people where I have been. Because it’s so rare a lot of people struggle to understand. Rhoda was dismissed from De Montfort University in Leicester last year after missing a number of coursework deadlines and half of her exams because she was asleep.

The mass media in Nigeria are also awash with this talented musician’s success story. He has just been featured on CNN’s African Voices, further showing how successful he has become.

He then decided to get into photos with great artistes as a way of riding his way to fame. He said he began with Tiwa Savage. He so much liked her music and wanted to take a photograph with her. He then photo-shopped his image into one of Tiwa’s photos. That looked beautiful. He then continued with others. And it worked. Today, Adekunle Gold is one of the most popular artistes in Nigeria.

You might not like snakes but is it possible for you to change your perception of these reptiles if you see beautiful ones? I don’t think you should be quick to respond to this if you’ve not seen the gartersnake species, arguably described as the most beautiful in the world. While snakes are mostly regarded as pests, they are also an essential aspect of the ecosystem. Some people even admire the beauty of these reptiles to the extent that they prefer to keep them as pets. There are more than 3,000 known species of snakes in the world. They practically live almost everywhere, in deserts, forests, oceans, and lakes. On every continent, there is at least one type of snake. Except in the north of the Arctic Circle and Antarctica where the ground stays frozen all year making it impossible for them to survive in such places.

A fearless little child is currently buzzing the internet with her crocodile-friendly hygiene show. In the Indonesian city of Tangerang, the child was recorded brushing the teeth of a crocodile. In the video, a girl in a yellow bathing suit is sitting in a bath tub with the reptile. She squeezes toothpaste onto a toothbrush, grabs the pet by the muzzle and starts brushing its teeth. The crocodile doesn’t move and seems rather cooperative. An exotic bird with a long beak, resembling a toucan, is sitting on a green bucket behind the girl’s back throughout the video. It turns its head only after the girl raises and drops the reptile several times in the water.

In what has been described as one of the greatest security breaches in the UK parliament, some climate change protesters stripped and interrupted commons debate in a very bizarre way today. Several of the 'Extinction Rebellion' group glued themselves to the window dividing MPs from the watching public in the biggest Commons security breach since 2014. Labour MP Peter Kyle joked about the 'naked truth' as MPs' attention was distracted from his speech by the demonstration.Most were wearing only thong-style underwear which left little to the imagination.Shocked MPs including former Labour leader Ed Miliband glanced up at the group as they stripped off behind the glass screen that separate the chamber from the public gallery. Some of the protesters were singing Nelly the Elephant while under the gaze of Parliamentarians. Savannah, an English literature student from Ladbroke Grove in west London, was one of the naked protesters. She said: ‘A bunch of people glued themselves to the window in the public gallery. ‘Everyone stripped and two people were elephants and had climate crisis written on them. ‘We were pointing at them as the elephants in the room of the Brexit debate.’ She added: ‘Personally I don’t care that much about Brexit. ‘I think it’s fine that people do but I think there are bigger things right now. Twelve climate change protesters were later arrested on suspicion of outraging public decency, Scotland Yard said.

Utah Gov. Gary Herbert (R) late Wednesday signed a bill decriminalizing fornication, making it legal to have sex outside of marriage. The law repeals the 1973 misdemeanor crime of fornication, or sex between people who are not married. The previous law criminalizing fornication was included in the state’s criminal code chapter on offenses against the family, Fox 13 News reported. Those found guilty could have faced up to six months in jail and a fine of $1,000. The law, however, was not pursued by police for prosecution and was not enforced. Some conservative lawmakers in the state disapproved of the repeal, according to Fox 13. “What is legally [right] is often far below what is morally right,” Rep. Keven Stratton (R) said when the bill passed the legislature earlier this month, according to Fox 13. “And I recognize our laws are not strong enough to rule a [sic] immoral people.” Herbert also signed a bill earlier this week that decriminalizes adultery and sodomy among consenting adults, according to the outlet.

Would you mind having a birthday cake that scares everyone away, including you? That’s what a woman has specialized in making – cannibal cakes. A mum is now referred to as a cannibal by online community for creating cakes that resemble the dead and scary human flesh. From severed fingers, feet and arms, Tanya Nisa, 42, from Lincoln, has spent the past seven years perfecting her craft of gory cakes after becoming inspired by the film Hannibal, Daily Star reports. Yet the realistic cakes seeping fake blood and profiling severed limbs and lifelike faces have scared many online. Tanya, an interior designer, has been forced to explain her creations are actually freshly Victoria sponge cakes. But she was left mortified after online trolls branded her a cannibal and claimed the cakes showed real human body parts – and made them feel sick just to look at. “I can get scared looking at them because my creations end up looking so lifelike. “People’s reactions are hilarious – they either hate them and don’t believe it’s a cake, or love it. “Some people have even called me a cannibal. “My girls hate them though and I have to hide the severed fingers in the kitchen as it grosses them out too much.” See details: https://massmediang.com/horrifying-cannibal-cakes-that-look-like-the-dead-real-life-human-flesh/

Police in Indonesia are currently investigating a man’s Instruments after his late wife’s dad alleged the unusually large size of the man’s penis was responsible for her death. The police inspected the man’s “giant” penis over the death of his wife as her dad blamed the size of his Instruments during sex, Daily Star reports. Nedi Sito found his daughter Jumantri dead in her bed at their home in Probolinggo, Indonesia. The 55-year-old accused her husband Barsah of killing her during sex due to the size of his penis. He successfully rallied the local police to inspect his son-in-laws genitals. Authorities had ruled her death to be caused by an epileptic fit during the night. Detectives however called in Barsah to get a look at his penis as part of the probe. Nedi levied the allegations two weeks after her death as rumours began to circulate. He became incensed and believed the husband’s giant Instruments were what killed his daughter. Local police indulged his belief and ordered Barsah down to the police station. He was ordered to show his penis to the police, family and village officials. See details: https://wakkinews.com/2019/03/30/police-inspect-mans-p3nis-after-allegations-giant-size-killed-his-wife/

What would you love to do to prove that you lived? Probably not to plan an unbelievably scary adventure into the jungle where you might sleep and not wake the next morning. That was what two University pals did. They took a trip to a deadly jungle in Malaysia and insisted on spending three weeks there. Fearless Daniel Olifi, 26, and 27-year-old James Moynihan wanted to see if they could survive three weeks alone in rural Malaysia; and they did. Today, they are buzzing the internet reports of their adventure. The pair of daring university pals battled blistering heat, machete wounds, thunderstorms and hypothermia to survive three weeks in the jungle – totally naked, Mirror UK reports. The duo wanted to see if they could survive three weeks alone in rural Malaysia – just for the challenge. But the survival junkies only took a flint rock, a machete, a mosquito net, a metal water pot and a first aid kit on their trip. Financial tech worker Daniel and cruise ship entertainer James lost 46lbs between them after failing to find much to eat except bugs and berries. Daniel, from London, said: “It was scary at times. “Going to sleep at night, for all you know a snake might get in your shelter and you might not wake up the next morning. “You can really step on a snake at any point and not know it, or hypothermia can get you. “You realise: ‘Damn! This is how idiots die in the wild and are never found’. “It was tough. Our bodies were cannibalising our muscle for energy just to stay alive. “We wanted to do something truly inspirational and epic- once in a lifetime. “You only live once, so you may as well do everything you can. “We wanted to show that anybody can push themselves to the limit to a point beyond giving up in a primal situation.

This is the most expensive snake in the world. It is also one of the most expensive pets anyone can own. Meet the Lavender Ball Python. Only the super rich crave for such pets. The Lavender Ball Python is a wonderful reptile that can impress even the most demanding pet lovers in the world, writes Richieast. Its aspect is definitely an interesting one. It has yellow spots on a lavender backdrop and piercing red eyes that complement the wonderful natural color palate.

A British woman had to go to the hospital after an intense impending orgasm triggered a stroke. According to a new report from the British Medical Journal, the unidentified 44-year-old woman suffered a “transient loss of consciousness (TLOC)” while receiving MouthAction from her partner. After the woman was unconscious for two to three minutes after the sex, her partner got nervous and took her to the emergency room at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London. Once there, the man told doctors his partner’s body had gone stiff during their session. The woman told doctors she had a headache that she described as a 6 out of 10 on the pain scale, according to the The Sun. At first, doctors believed, based on the symptoms, that the woman had suffered a seizure. Doctors later learned she had experienced a blackout caused by a sudden lack of blood supply to the brain, also known a reflex-mediated syncope, according to IFLScience.com. “On closer history taking, the patient reported nearing orgasm while receiving MouthAction from her partner before losing consciousness,” the authors wrote in their report for the BMJ. A CT scan and a CT angiography showed she had an aneurysm, leading to a subarachnoid hemorrhage ― a kind of stroke. The researchers said it’s not unheard of for orgasms to cause stroke.
