dmcdad: True love exists and will continue to exist till the end of time...

You don't force yourself to refrain from falling in love. Love is more sweeter than honey. The thing here is, it is not a must that one should be in a relationship, especially when you know what you want and it's not coming handy, what do you do? Do you just go by whatever you see around? No! That would be awkward of you. The fact that people are falling in love or being in a relationship is not a yardstick that you have to be in a relationship..

If there is no reason for you to go into a relationship, do you think it's advisable to go into it? Even if you have your reasons and all that, there is still need to look for someone that will complement you and make you achieve whatever goal you have in mind for going into that relationship.. If you can't find someone that will fill up that space in your heart that is void of feelings and emotions, then going into a relationship will be redundant.

So, if love comes knocking at your door, give it a chance. But don't ever force it or try to go into a relationship at all cost just because others are going into it. Do you know if they are even enjoying it or enduring it

Think and act wisely...

beblessed: I called my female cousin this morning and was informed she just put 2 bed her fourth child. She is now happily married 2 her childhood sweetheart who put her in the family way about fifteen years ago. When it happened, hell was let loose and infact she was disowned by family members. Only a distant childless aunt nurse her and a baby until she was sent 2 husband's mum. My cousin suffered hardship. The gist is that life has turned better for her and she is doing so well wit her husband,whereas some of us who made mockery of her condition are yet 2 settle down! Am happy she did not abort her now beautiful daugther. How do we make life easy 4 pregnant teenagers, especially in our culture n family?

WebM.MOUAU:
Recently, especially after JAMB released their results, I've been bombarded with questions from several friends who are prospective students of MOUAU. These questions have varied greatly, however I wish to give a comprehensive answer to all such questions here, but we will still be open to some specific questions.

Admission at MOUAU is based on a competitive quota system. What does that mean? This simply means that during the admission process, each dept/course is allocated a certain number of student slots within the total admission quota for the entire University and these slots are competitively allocated. So assuming the University has about 2,000 slots approved by NUC for a particular session, this number is divided between the depts/courses. Soil Science, Botany, Agronomy may be given less than 50 slots each, while the more competitive Agribusiness, Microbiology, Comp Eng, Comp Science, may be given about 150 slots each. And other depts/courses in order of size and competitiveness. During the selection process, all the students who applied for each of these courses are listed according to the scores they have, in descending order. Then selection is made based on the quota allocated for that dept/course for that year. Therefore if after sorting the names a candidates name falls as the 88th person in order of score for a particular prog that was allocated 50 slots, obviously such a candidate will not be admitted.

Typically, applications received for the progs mentioned earlier ranges around these figures during Post UTME, Soil Science - less than 20, Botany - about 100, Agronomy - less than 10, while Agribusiness - abt 1,300, Microbiology - almost 1,000, Comp Eng - abt 900, Comp Science - over 1,000, etc. These are typical figures. Let me add Civil Engr - abt 300-400. With the explanation above and the figures shown here, you will discover that a candidate who was denied admission in Comp Eng, will find another candidate with the same scores, being offered admission to read Civil Engr. This is because the competition is less heated there. Equally a candidate who was denied admission to read Biochemistry, will find out that the scores of several of those admitted to read Botany/Zoology are much lower than his/hers. And when this happens such a candidate will start complaining and claiming that he/she was denied admission as a result of corruption and bribery, obviously not understanding the way the system works.

I can categorically tell you that the merit admissions at MOUAU are processed 100% on merit. After the merit admissions, then comes the supplementary admissions. But many of our prospective students do not know that supplementary admissions is not automatic. You need to indicate interest and apply for it. If you don't apply for the supplementary admissions at the right time, the result is that a candidate who scored lower than you, but who indicated interested and applied through the proper channels will be admitted and you still find yourself without admission and probably complaining.

This has been a long post, I just hope there are few mistakes and that it is easy to understand, otherwise feel free to ask further questions. You can also join this discussion on FaceBook (http://www.facebook.com/mouauwebmaster/posts/161230840666132)

Lets all have a Great Day.

durobraham: sweetie, i had a baby in school and graduated second best of my college class, yes better than all them chicks who didnt have babies.
m yet to have a night where i regret having my son& m not married cos i dont think i can trust any1 to raise my son like he should.

All i am saying is this, we all have different roads to take in this life, teenage pregnancy is not an ideal situation but the truth is abortion is not a remedy. God forbid u ever find urself in such a situtaion anyway,the right approach is to support whatever decision ur daughter makes as a parent, thats d only way her life will not be totally ruined...

durobraham: dayokanu&daviddylan
one question why the heck are u getting involved in the lives of children when u clearly know u re not going to be there for a while?

secondly just because the kids of those who were unfortunate to date u guys were crying&missing u makes u think they should have been aborted?
children are resilient&v short memories , if u guys would do the honourable things& get OUT of their lives u will be amazed how quickly they would forget all abt u.

u guys re so funny. U take one aspect of the life of a single woman& decide that it means those children should not have been born? Do u have any idea how infinite the light every little baby brings to the world? What makes you the judge of which children deserve to live& which dont?
