What people don't understand is that the cut off mark posted by universities is fake. Please aspiring students, don't look up or set your target towards that mark. Add at least 100 marks as your target to that publicly declared cut off mark. The departments admit students from the highest score and they normally have a quota to admit, and once the number is reached, that automatically becomes the cut off mark. Thats why students that have average jamb score of 250 and above still don't get admission. The competition is high now. For instance, a department has a quota to admit 100 students. If the top 70th student got 294 as his average score, that automatically becomes the cut off for that year, the truth is that schools no longer determine the cut off mark by themselves. The rest 30 students are now given to the catchment area, educationally disadvantaged areas, man know man, and other wuruwuru. So if you're hoping to get on merit, u have to jettison this public cut off mark, add another hundred marks and double your effort.

Nigeria has never had it this bad before. The saddest thing is that there's no end in sight to these occurences. Herdsmen are being fingered in many crimes being perpetrated in various part of the country, could it just be mere coincidence? Yet, the leaders ain't doing anything about it. This is the kind of trend that brought about the Rwandan genocide, cos when the fulanis mistakenly lose their grip in power, others will likely take their own pound of flesh. Power is transient |
Mrpojj:Sorry, but that's one bad thing about religious fanatics, it reduces ones thinking. So now money is enough compensation for a raped virgin girl? |
Mrpojj:50 shekels of silver is about 570 grams of silver, that about $450, so if someone rapes your virgin daughter or sister, that's enough compensation right? Infact him paying that makes him entitled to marry her too. |
abmarine:The same Bible tells u all these abi? Oga use your head.. U can research personally about the origin of the Bible, na human beings write am, some edited it later in the years to suit their agenda, some translated it to other languages. Read about king James. emperor Nero, council of Nicea etc. The bible is full of contradictions and discrepancies. It doesn't add to any new knowledge in terms of science or technology. It's full of imaginary beings like dragons, unicorns, talking donkey, talking serpent, and many other magical acts that don't happen in real life. Not to talk about false promises and hopes it gives people. Read the Bible without sentiments, and you'll see these things I'm saying |
KingRollins01:If it is consensual sex, why was the lady not punished too like the other preceding verses, where both were found guilty? Why will the man be the one to pay and even marry her? I don't like arguing about these archaic laws. They hold no importance in these modern times. How an all knowing God could come up with such punishments baffles me, stoning to death just because two people had sex and it's called adultery. To lay hold on someone means to seize someone, it's forceful. So any lady that is raped within the walls of the city will be stoned to death, but if she was raped outside, she's safe only the man is punished.. My heart and thoughts goes to the poor virgins that were raped within the walls, even when they were overpowered and couldn't shout for help. |
alBHAGDADI:I don't have time to argue with you cos you're just trying to justify stone age terrible laws. You and I know that death is a huge punishment for adultery no matter how you may want to justify it. I rest my case. Thank you |
This is one of the reason I don't like religious folks, sometimes you guys even lie to defend the bible. Op how come you used the phrase "force her" in verse 25. But when u got to verse 28, you modified the same phrase to "lay hold on her" , modifying the grammar just to downplay the rape being treated in verse 28. It's sad that the bible gives a pat on the back punishment of 50 shekels of silver for a rapist that raped a young virgin, and even proposed that the afflicted girl should marry her abuser.. Sometimes this Bible make some of us not to use our common sense.. How does sex between two consenting adults result to them being stoned to death. You reason am Let's use our head o, and think for ourselves, that Bible na human being like u write am, edit am and print am. Make u no dey take everything wey dem write for there hook, line and sinker. Atuolu omalu omalu, mana atulo ofeke ofenye isi n'ohia |
These business centres, how I wish they can be closed forever. ![]() |
We Biafrans go still reason this Emeka Offo matter. This guy na efulefu. Na one of the Judas we get for south East. After setting Ipob lawyer up, built library at Duara, now this one. What has he done for his people, only a fool spreads charity abroad while his people need help. Aku luo uno amara onye nwe ya.. |
merit455:Bla bla bla, be whining your mouth, till one day someone will accuse you falsely of rape and u find your name and pics all littered in the internet. I repeat, victims of rape should seek justice through the police and court.. Not on social media. |
chimeremodlyn:Go police station go report. No be whatsapp group she go get justice. We need to advise people to do the right thing. Sentiments aside |
The hotel may have done their little investigation into to accusation to find that the accusation may be a false one. Thereby effecting her sack. Victims of rape or attempted rape, should do well to forward their case to the police immediately when the evidence is still fresh, and not come on social media to join a trend or a movement, cos that's no the right way to seek justice. Why was the man's name and picture posted when the case hasn't been proven in court, and why was the lady's name hidden.. I think their identities should be hidden till it's proven beyond all reasonable doubts.. Cos some vindictive women can use these accusations to smear someone's good character that he's been building for years, cos the internet never forgets |
Jakumo:Why do u like carrying fake news? China is not as densely populated as u think, they have more free land than Nigeria, their population density is 145 people per km² While ours is 218km². China's land mass is more than 10 times of Nigeria while their population is about 7 times that of Nigeria.. Not putting other factors like gdp, ppp, hdi, life expectancy and others into consideration, we Nigerians have more population problems than China. |
I don't like the state of being in LOVE. Even in movies when a character falls in love they start doing stupid and irrational things. Our heads should always guide us ahead of our hearts. Heads make better decisions.. I hope she won't regret her actions later in life |

kayuseful:In this aspect, I think they're better. Pastors and priests draw too much attention and reverence towards themselves, they make themselves sacred dogs among their fellow christians, whereas all Christians have equal access to God, anybody can attain any level spiritually irrespective of your position in church. But no, pastors and priests make themselves demi Gods, as in they are the miracle workers themselves. Also, Islam and imams are more transparent. They don't convert the people's donations to their personal money, that's what charity is all about.. It's morally wrong, for pastors to convert church money to theirs, and even invest it into personal money making businesses. It's totally wrong. Church is a charity organization, that's why it's not taxed.. Think of it this way, how do u see it, when the owner of a motherless babies home or an orphanage converts people's donations into their personal property and invest it into their personal business for money making. Wrong right? That's what pastors do and it's normal. |
kayuseful:No |
uboma:And you and I know that the country has gone to the dogs. And it's on a downward spin. But I don't know why some people are against those calling for Biafra, and disintegration of the country into smaller units. Is it that they enjoy this country like this? Is this the type of country we would like to leave our children's children for? |

When it comes to rape accusations and claims, it is always rational to remain neutral, and allow thorough investigation to take place. I ceased jumping into the band wagon, one day I heard one woman around my place, bragging of intimidating one doctor and threatening to falsely accuse him of rape if he were to resist the intimidation. Right from the days of Joseph in the bible, many men have suffered false accusations and their destinies truncated. NB: I totally stand against rape and violence against any gender or race. |
One of the problems of this country is that there's no continuity. Every new administration or govt totally ditches the policies of the past administration. The old projects and existing plans are left to rot away. Very sad. What becomes the fate of these sacked employees, many of them would have paid millions to the previous executives to secure such govt jobs, and now it has gone down the drain. The country is not stable, no steady policies or rules, no one is sure of what may happen next.. Even the govt don't have long term plans for the country.. With all these kinds of uncertainties, the country can never progress.. No be swear, but it's the sad truth. |
Dididrumz:He doesn't exist. There's no proof of his existence. Even spirits, devil, angels, jinn, witches etc. They only exist in imaginations and the holy books. |
In the house of God, yet God didn't do anything, he allowed it to happen. These churches and religion na scam. The earlier we all take our lives in our hands and know that there's no God anywhere that protects or coordinates the universe, the better for us. |

Taiwojon:First of all, ask yourself, who wrote and compiled the bible. Humans like u compiled it, browse on the history of the bible, you will see that it has been edited many times over history. meanwhile catholic bible contains 73 books, Anglican canon 80 books, protestants/pentocostals 66 books, Ethiopian Orthodox 81 books. A book with different versions,a book that contradicts itself eg the geneology of Jesus from Mathew and Luke are entirely different from the time of David. these and many more contradictions exist in the bible, surely, this means that either one of them is lying or both of them. Read about King james, Emperor Nero and the council of Nicea. You will get to find out how the bible was written, certain books edited out, even how certain beliefs like trinity and the divinity of Jesus was intriduced into christianity... brother this Christianity you are living, na human beings like you create am. get knowledge and be free. |
By the time buhari and his cohorts are done with nigeria anyi ga afu nke too biati. unu furu efelefu mee ya president. By the time he is done with nigeria, half the citizens will turn to almajiri. useless man.. ![]() |
Taiwojon:Is that so? keep on narrating the script all over again. People who told u this story didn't experience it, they told u as they were told, and sadly you'll tell your kids the same thing, and they their kids and on and on it goes. You that have accepted Jesus, how are you and your born again kinds better than other "sinners"? are you all more law abiding? more trustworthy? hardworking? live healthier or longer? wiser? what exact and obvious difference has Jesus made in your lives, if not to benefit the pastors, rev. fathers and imams? They ride jets and live the best of lives while their followers languish in penury. just as I said, this is a movie, and if Jesus kill and destroy Satan, the game done end and the pastors won't smile to the bank again. Get sense, and know that all these God, Jesus, demons, Satan, Vishnu etc stuffs are all scam and fake. |
But God allowed it, so he is partially to be blamed. God and devil is a movie script created by the rich and powerful, to control the poor and gullible group of humans. The same reason actor no dey kill bozz till the end of the movie, is the same reason God never kill Satan. If the movie short, less income and revenue for the production firm. One unique thing about the religious movie is that it only ends when the viewers die, a life time movie. It's not that the producers are wise, it's just that their followers are mumu. The producers created the devil character, because they know someone has to take the blame of the evil happening around the world. But the good guy can't kill him, if not the movie go end, so therefore the viewers keep waiting for the end of the movie till they die. This movie subscription on Netflix is lifetime subscription. |
