That is how it should be. Anybody that needs land for his personal business or farm should be ready to buy. No free land anywhere

I don't even know why all the state governors are not investing massively in cattle rearing. If cattle becomes available everywhere, no one would buy from those killing humans fro their animals.

But how can FG allow movement of cows from place to place in 2018! And the senate and house of rep keeps quiet. This is the worst impunity I have seen in any nation

ladybug2:
In the meantime, I suggest you send your outstanding invoice(s) as well. I emphasized in my email that my 3rd-year fees are now overdue, and it is.

Thank you. I have resent my invoice to her.

ladybug2:
lol... I hear you.

Ladybug2, what do you think we should do about our second tuition. Any news?

ladybug2:
No, they only paid one year. I have emailed the coordinator to remind and ensure they know they still owe us for another session/year and it is now overdue for most of us. So before NDDC decides to take us for another ride, rest assured we will not relent until they settle us once and for all.

Glad you have been paid. I fear for those owed two years. We are very few and the commission might not receive enough pressure to surrender payment as they will keep touting the current payment around.

Knowing Nigerians, they wont even that sympathetic towards our course as they will feel we should be grateful that one year was paid even!

But the money is so big we can't pay for it ourselves and we are still in same pot of debt as before

It's okay for china to protect their indigenous religions but it's a crime if the same logic is used by Muslim countries.

No they don't protect any religion. For they not to be seen as bias, that is why they are also against Christians as they are against Muslim. They are just afraid to face high level terrorism as it is becoming the case. But what is rely offensive is to favor one religion over the other. I am not supporting China in their actions. Just trying to explain their rational for their actions. Christians, no matter fanatical they are, do not kill. But fanatical Muslim don't see killing of others as sin. But Christianity in the hands of illiterate is dangerous. They become lazy and undeveloping.

ollah2:
The world would have said an entirely different thing if this happened in a Muslim country

But that would make sense. China is against religion fanatism. That includes muslim and christianity. They are even doing this because of Islam. Recently, muslim terrorists have been attacking china and they think it is fair, although not reasonable, to were out all.religious bodies.

But a muslim country doing that would amount to persecution of christians

A picture u will later regret 20/30years to come

In 20 years, the world would walk naked. There would be no shame.

NaoSlay:


Not that it is still bare madam.

You're looking for a Gold mine.

What happened to the countless Vulcanizers, Danfo drivers, trycicle operators on the streets?

How would the communicate? What would they talkabout? thought agreeable people get married?

Omoluabi16:
hahahaha! can't help but laugh. Madam blogger.. next time, you won't slander people. A whole omo governor doing corporate begging.

But the culture of protecting people got us here. Do we even seek for change? We jeer at people when we need to speak up. Where did we lose it!

ladybug2:
Tried as well but they conveniently did not answer it. Hopefully they will sort that out soon enough. It is a shame they have to be pushed by FG to fulfill their obligations

She did answer me about the two year session. She said they haven't start processing 2nd year tuition. The tone didn't seem reassuring. She sounded like there isn't fund for that.

Very few people are owed two sessions and usually those in PhD program. I am afraid nddc may want to evade payment they are not pressured into. And I also hope NDDC isn't thinking that the money paid is meant for our personal pockets!

ladybug2:
Scholarship coordinator just informed me that payments are still ongoing. So expectant scholars do not despair.

2017 prospective scholars; we will continue to mount pressure on them to release the list or atleast be transparent with us. Thanks for your joint efforts in ensuring current scholars are paid their dues.

I am glad they are still on payment. The coordinator must really like you to answer your inquiries every time unlike with many of us. I really want you to.have your payment sorted out. You have really fought here. Did she discuss both session payment with you?

9japrof:
You are the one who lack comprehension skills, oya take a cup of chilled water and re-read my first paragraph

How is adopted child step daughter to the man? You formed that assumption. Whereas if you read the full story, you would have seen the connecting dots

9japrof:
When it involves a step daughter, she has no blood ties to the family so banging the step dad ain't a taboo in some sorts.

The idiot is the man who cross the bounds and was having a carnal knowledge of the daughter, which is animalistic in some sorts..

Shout out to those Amebos who dabble Into matter wey no concern them, wrecking families up and down with their busy body attitude...so as they don wreck this family join, are they happy now ?

It surprises me you wrote several sentences here without actually reading up the body of the article! FYI, the women adopted the girl she calls daughter. Smh

Frankly, do you truly get paid to do this as others have speculated or you are just a die-hard fan of the current FG?

planetx:
The question is not whether he is qualified for the job or not I am sure he his, but in a multi ethnic and multi religious country like country this president appointments are too lopsided in favour of one section of the country and religion. Why is this hard for people to understand.

This beats any explaination. I am in awe in how anyone could be so sectional! Almost all the security outfits are headed by one ethnic group! Something is fundaentally wrong! There is a certain movement going on!

ladybug2:
Thank you for letting us know. Yes, you are right country difference could be a factor (I am in the UK). I am still waiting and hoping. If you don't mind my asking, are you 2015 set? I need to be sure they are dealing with all scholars and not just 2016 set. I am 2015 and I owe two session's tuition. It is sad they have only settled one and as soon as I receive mine I will have to chase them again for the final session or all my hard work here will be futile.

Actually I am 2014 scholar but had my letter changed to 2015

xfire:
Okay. PM sent. Thanks

Cash transferred! Thumbs up!

irahub:
Lol. That is the typical mentality I had expected you and I to have. Because it is in our nature. Look at your words, " bet you, they won't do this with the ND militants because they are very much aware of the repercussions". Yeah! That is the only language that is understood in the animal world. Courts and justice system are not needed as long as you have wild animals as pawns such as fulani herdsmen. Kill!, fight!, destroy!, blood!, disease and guns. Any other thing?

You mentioned something about "hackers, social media influencers (sic) or intellectuals", I just laugh in Latin. What will those people do. Do you use intellectuals to talk to a lion in a jungle and convince the lion not to eat you up. Beside, who are the hackers? Where were they trained? What power will they use to keep their system on in order to "hack" in Nigeria. Do you think that going to one of those institutions of kinsmen we call Universities and study computer science for 4 years on a blackboard will make you become a hacker or intellectual. You are just a joker.

What animal is worst than this. Domestic animals are even friendly and loving while wild animals could be tame. This one went to military training to be foolish, wayward, retrogressive, inhumane and animalistic: Check out the thread. I am afraid for my people

ladybug2:
I have submitted both second and third year invoices to NDDC via scholarship coordinator so she in particular is very aware of my situation as my school has been on my case for unpaid debts. In September (2017), she emailed me to request for my personal and school bank address which I provided so I will really be pissed if for any reason I don't receive my dues cos they did this April Fool to us last year March. I have sent her an email as we speak to clarify.

I hope they pay both cos I have submitted all the invoices. Whatever the case, I will inform the house as soon as account gets credited in real time, God willing.

I just checked my school account and found I have been paid. Whereas I have two sessions outstanding, only one session was paid for. Just letting you to know there is truth about received payment. I am hoping you receive yours today. Mine is in the United State anyway so it might be due to country difference. However it is good you constantly remind them as anything goes with this commission. Like you, I would be sending email for the second tuition. Without it, I am still in the wood.

Nigeria has finally gone to the dogs

Buhari and the entire members of his administration are cancer that must be cut off from the Nigerian political scene in 2019

6 euro per cow per day! What a lie! Subsidy was only done in Europe but only for cattle producing dairies and not beef. The highest amount was $2.20 but has gone now to less than $1. These companies still pay taxes.

India, brazil, china and US owe 73% of cattles in the world with no subsidy. These is another way to line the pocket of the rich. The poor don't owe any cattle in Nigeria. They are owed by rich businessmen

Stephandeswardt:
Nigerians no just get sense. ......is white house aso rock.....or will Obama determine Nigerian local policy...

The problem with Nigerians is the feeling of knowledge when they know nothing! That is how I perceive you. How many problems have your Aso rock solve? I only feel pains for the dead and the living like you do nothing, absolute nothing to take action. Not even a signature to save lives

Hello everyone,

Following the highly successful outcome of the maiden edition of the Xfire Nairaland Undergraduate Quiz Competition held last year, I hereby formerly declare open the 2nd Edition.

The first edition was highly competitive with about 300 screened applicants partaking in the online test. The eventual winner, a 400 level Medicine and Surgery student from UNIBEN (exe0) received a total cash prize of N170, 000 (N60,000 from myself supported by N100, 000 from InvertedHammer and N10, 000 from Ariel20.

The 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th placed winners also received various cash prizes while the 6th to 15th placed winners received N1, 000 recharge cards each courtesy of GraceBestowed who contributed N10, 000.

In the maiden edition, final year students were exempted. But in this edition and subsequent ones, it will be thrown open to all undergraduates. So expect the program to be more competitive.

https://www.nairaland.com/3565797/cash-prizes-sent-winners-xfire

This year, the top 3 students will receive the following cash prizes (subject to a minimum score of 70%):

Winner: N70,000

1st Runner Up: N40, 000

2nd Runner Up: N30, 000

A cash prize of N10, 000 each will be given to the 4th and 5th best as consolation.

This year and going forward, I will be stepping down as the overall coordinator of the competition. A well respected mod in Education section Richiez will be the overall coordinator with Odunayo providing support.

Richiez will provide details on the criteria for selection, modalities of the tests, registration period, etc. in the post below this and follow-up threads. He (alongside Odunayo) will also be responsible for attending to your enquiries.

Other well wishers are free to pledge additional financial support for the winners.

I am very impressed to see educational exercise going on on nairaland. I give kudos for your initiative. If you don't mind, I will like to support the winners with 50k. I particularly want the overall winner to go home with nothing less than 100k. So you can complete his/her 70k to 100k and use the remaining 20k with your discretion.

Thanks for your initiative.

now we have heard alerts are rolling in and not 1 scholar on this platform can confirm by prolly showing us proof of payment
what happens if only 20 people get paid?

all d grammatical abracadabra about how intellectually empty the black man is have been said yet no credible solution?
you may not get justice in this part of the world but what I know about lawsuit based on experience that I once worked in a law firm is that people sue for the most insane things even in Nigeria.
it may not work but it will send shivers if properly handled that NDDC scholars sued the people that has cheated them over and over again.
do you know you can sue both present NDDC board, MNDA and even the past NDDC board members that sent you into limbo in a foreign land.
justice may not come but if scholars drag the issue even if it means an appeal and refuse to backdown even up.
we'll make frontpage for the world to see
besides there are lawyers that will accept such cases for the publicity it brings them and at very little cost too.
enuf said since God knows when
wise up Black man ...wise up

I have no notice of payment. I can check real time when it comes. I cannot verify if anyone had received payment. You make a valid point. Lawsuit is very effective in redressing wrongdoing. Again, Nigerians just have aversion for it. I know of a graduate student who sued a Nigeria University for keeping him for 4 years for a two years programme he was doing and how they have ruined his finances, time and career. He was awarded 5million naira for the delay by the court against his institution.

Hahaha. I like this guy! Actually there is a biological basis for black retrogression but the white man won't say this in the modern world because of the rascist dust it would raise! However, there are very few of us that are aware and was lucky to have a better brain. People like Obafemi Awolowo and early Nationalists come to mind!

The few of us must install order, create organisation, lead the country, give our lives for our country and not give up.

One thing is clear: we don't have natural instinct to build, for fairness, justice and science. At best, we can learn. So our task is to teach others to learn

bizme:
Some so-called students have no business being within the figurative four walls of a university. They latch on every conceivable, real and unreal cause to hold the entire school to ransom. The interesting thing is that such students are in the minority, while the majority of the law-abiding students lament silently that their school calendar is being frivolously hijacked from them.

Students should open their eyes. In public schools whether you write exams or not, the salaries and promotions of the lecturers remain unaffected. Whether you graduate in record time in multiples of the record time, the lecturers have absolutely nothing to lose. This hooliganism that our educational institutions practises in the name of student unionism is beneath the level of individuals professing to be educated... Students should stop hiding behind the veil of student unionism to insult people who are not their mates. Intellectualism should be the way forward for our students, not hooliganism.
And yes, the university administration reserves the right to proscribe the student union. As strong as OAU student union was it was proscribed and heavens did not fall.

No the University administration cannot arbitrary proscribe student union government. That is the body that fights for the right of every students. The executive can only be impeached through parliamentary action of the student's body.

Only a despot can ban a body fighting against its excesses.

Beress:
Based on this, it means N1m TB will give u N480k in one year... I think is cool sha

Na so.shebi everybody for dey invest for TB. Lol.He said 12%. This is yearly not monthly. So he would make 120k in.a year for 1m. But since his is 90 days. He would make only 30k.

Another slowpoke in Nigeria. So u think a camera can capture ghosts? Guy! U watch too many fake videos on YouTube .
Moreover, its mermaid not "manmaid" and they aren't real also. Jeez! Your IQ is extremely low!

You are a child! And very rude. And you don't know anything. That's why you think you are Burutai

DavidJohnDavid:

Ha that looks strange but is it possible for a spirit to be captured on camera?

Yes. Many ghosts have been captured on camera. Go to youtube. Even manmaid have been too

They ran because of nuclear radiation. No one wants to go back there for fear of it. There were probably nuclear leak from the nuclear power plant nearby!

People may still never go there for the next century because the cars are already absorb plenty radiation
