What exactly is the problem, months after the heroic command by the MD/CEO for NDDC to immediately pay tuition and other benefits, the commission has gone under the carpet and avoid any inquiries.

The CBN no longer restrict dollar payment for students' tuition. What then is there new excuse? I do not understand how a scholarship body expects her awardee to survive in a strange land for months unending without living up to their commitment. Did they forget they have this type of people under their commitment? Or they just went on to damn the consequences of their action. This is a shame and systemic failure in the organisation.

Very soon, NDDC letterhead would not be accepted in various embassies for educational scholarship. They are the only scholarship granting body in the world that do not match their word with action .

Please which is best in sending transcript to the US? via DHL or USPS?
Any idea on how much it cost?

If you have 2- 3 weeks on your hand, a simple NIPOST mail will suffice. It is unbelievably efficient at a cost of N300 to N20,000 spent on dhl.
You know why it is efficient? Once the mail gets to Lagos, it is handled by foreign partner. So your mail is very safe!

BGP, that means the Amaechi angle might still be the correct angle. He is the only Big Government Person that has been fingered in the case so far

I hope this isn't money owed to Amaechi by the presidency for 2015 election support?

ellahzy:
No, but I can refer you to a place where you can buy enough.

Good! That was a JAMB question. You nor be dundee...

40k = 95.2euros per month

70k = 166euros per month

120k = 285euros per month

Mehnnnnnn...... it is well


Even if na 200k i.e 476euros....oga gan oo

You don't just convert directly! How much is your monthly house rent for two bedroom flat in Europe? Maybe 500 euros or more per month. In Nigeria. Its about 60 euros in Nigeria per month or less. So its utilities, car maintainance and tax. In the long run, Middle class Nigeria worker may have higher quality of live than their struggling europe counterpart!

fatdick:
no bro.....it's 5% on the 1st billion, 4% on the 2nd to 5th and 2.5% for any amount exceeding 5 billion.

Check this out; from you calculation, someone who tells on 8 billion naira earns less than those who tell on 5 billion naira. How is that rational to you. I just told you what it is as outlined by Lai Mahammed. It's on google.

fatdick:
There is nothing wrong in giving a tithe to the church. What is wrong in this story is the part where the pastor initially lied about receiving the tithe in the first place. That is a big sin.

But wait ooo.....42 million naira X 10 = 420 million
And you expect make the church members no vex......knowing that the tithe may not even be used to cater for their welfare.

E be like say na Whistle blower pay him tithe 2.5% of 19 billion = 475million. Go figure


Over to those of you who believe in paying tithe

I just want to clarify how whistle blower's money is calculated:

5% on the first billion. 4% on the 2nd to 5th billion. 2.5% thereafter. I don't want you to discourage whistle blowing intendees by lowering their incentives.

Mo Abdul is an accomplished entrepreneur who can afford that house if you ask me, I don't think she can be amechi's girlfriend, I think she will prefer someone she can control. She has even promised to take legal action if her name is dragged into their dirty politics game



Do you need to do a roof parapet, or you are building on a water logged land. Try to reduce your building load with the use of polystyrene material.

In the world of media, funmi Iyanda is way ahead of MO Abudu but Mo got money like madt. Billion even! She was a TV talk show persona. You should ask yourself how she raised capital for biz.

So don't defend anyone. She may not be connected to Amaechi but her source of wealth at the beginning is questionable!

nonstan:
That's humility, I kind of always knew he was not the one handling his account, he is too emotional, I hope he doesn't get hurt in the future

Don't get easily deceived by actions. Anyone can easily do what he did to gain back the people's support. That is what politicians do too. Lick your ass.

Of course, he manages his account by himself. He was following more people that he was being followed by entering the big brother house. I gained more followership while in the house and unable to make contact with anyone to give his account password. He either unfollowed people himself or contracted it to somebody with his consent. The thought process is what matters.

He should be sorry for the mistake but he shouldn't lie.

Ehiscotch:
Am I the only one who didn't follow BBN live? I just followed it on NL. Speaking of "follow", Efe , honestly you don't need to explain even if you really un followed. I guess that's the flip side of being a celebrity, especially when you got it through votes.
The people who voted would now come and think they have a say in your everything. Just ignore sha! Its down to your own discretion & logistics.

That is difference! When you rise to stardom with the people, you don't let them down. The people do have a say otherwise he is unappreciative. The simple act of unfollowing people wreak of wickedness. I mean, what exactly is playing out on your mind at the time?

So don't defend his action. It would be better if he opened an official account.

Goahead:
Our leaders are intellectually handicapped. We have many tourist attractions, transport those planes to these places and convert them to restaurants, Internet cafe and other useful spots.

It will be better put to use in the university research centres. Let them be donated to university for them to study aircraft gas turbine and avionics

prettyboi1989:
i see no reason why one bundle of the monies cant be given to each official that counted the money.

Why are EFCC official counting millions with hands. There are super machines that can count money with lightening speed . It is sick to know EFCC is showing this display of ignorance!

it depends on the university, visit these university's website and confirm the exact IETLS score you will need and apply to the one that you qualify

– University of Aberdeen
– University of Cranfield
– University of Leeds
– University of Strathclyde
– University of Liverpool.

visit these university's website and confirm the exact IETLS score you will need and apply to the one that you qualify

Did you read the scholarship award criteria in the advert sheet? It is not about this schools. Of course, no UK schools will ask you more than 6.5 IELTS score band for admission purpose. I am an Alumnus of Cranfield University and Nigerians don't need IELTS to study there.

The 8.0 score was set by LNG to filter out candidates. That was my point.

I hope he doesn't ascribe this incidence to targeted witchcraft

The IELTS qualification score of 8.0 is too high. That will literally filter a ninth of the applicants out

Lexusgs430:
Hence my position is stay very wide clear of credit cards. Spend only what you have and avoid all the temptations of buying on NEVER NEVER.....

You are not seen as human in America or other developed world if you don't operate credit card? Your credit history tell a lot about you. Some person would not even do any business with you when you don't have credit history.

Once you pay as and wen due, you are good to go or like Msnas, you can use the credit card to buy stuff and then return money back to it before interest build on it.

GloriaNinja:
I THOUGHT "UBER" HAS BEEN BANNED FROM THIS bleeped UP COUNTRY.

Dont be too quick to curse out your country like this. It's a shame! Seriously, there are many homicide cases happening oversea than in Nigeria.

Condemn the action and debate on way forward rather than calling off development facility in the country

Lexusgs430:
It's the banks way of easily converting e-money to real raw hard earned cash payments at the detriment of the lender.
A £3000 balance can easily become converted into a £30,000 payment over the length of payment.
A very wicked concept..... ..

There are policy mandate now that requires bank/lender to let you know the length of time you will finished paying the loan with a minimum payment and how much you would be paying. Except you default on payment, there is a limit to their exploitation.

But you must realise the time value of money! All of these lenders' money are held down for years while u pay little amount at your comfort. They are also very exposed to losses. There are many cases were people welsh on them. Your only repercussion is destruction of your credit worthiness. Many African Americans abuse this previlege. So there are two sides to the coins.

chukzyfcbb:
most of these fellas abroad live on debt aka mortgage.
infact I remember a survey that says just about 25% of the American citizenry had savings of at least $100,000

Really? That is huge. That is like @ least 40million naira savings in Nigeria owned by 50 millions people in a country of 200 millions. What can be better?

Remember $7000 can buy a good car in US. In fact $100,000 has more value than equivalent N40m in Nigeria


Update: I just fact checked on google. Your figure isn't correct. Usatoday.com says 7 out of every 10 Americans have less than $1000 as savings. That is 70% percent already

Malala is always an amazing girl with unique vision.

Anyway she raised herself. She had had a bullet shot on her head earlier. Some people are not raised, they become what they are

Lol. Truly, I don't understand this statement

Jodha:
Dangote is a fulfilled man... At 60 he's achieved a lot.. His making Naija proud and I'm so proud of that fact... More grease to yhur elbow..

But Dangote biko leave the noodles for indomie.. Yhur noodles are not encouraging at all

Hahaha. Your first sentence is funny. I man dat hasn't achieved his all by 60 shud forget it. If you referred to 40s or 50, then the sentence fits well. Dangote is such a great man all the same

Lordave:
Who's her husband?

Is a man not animal!

zinachidi:
my number 2 celebrity crush don marry.


*sad face*


Genny my number 1 crush. Pls don't leave me.


HML to her.

I see you don't like them. You want them to die in their singlehood.

MrPolitics:
Seriously. I won't be surprised if he runs for governor in 2019 or 2023

That would be the collapse of Delta state. Lol

Ayiri is everywhere

Michael Jackson didn't bleach because he wanted to change his skin

he bleached cuz he suffered from Vitiligo; its a condition in which patches of skin lose melanin in random way; he uses gloves on one of his hands because Vitiligo was very apparent there

he decided to do something to make his skin uniform; so he was left with 2 choices:

1 darken the light skin so everything would become black (which is impossible)

2 lighten everything to make it light (which is possible)

he went for number 2

just check the attached pictures and understand Vitiligo better

you can also check Vitiligo on Wikipedia

what about his hair? It used to be afro

masterP042:
I got tired of this call girl when I found out that she's all after media trial and public sympathy, for god's sake if she has an issue with him let her go to court and sort it out.
Cos this whole thing is looking as if she just wants to tarnish the pastors image.
BTW, the man of God didn't refute sending her money, he acknowledged sending her money twice but stopped after he found out that she's a serial blackmailer.
May God save us all from this kind wahala

Anyway, it was the Pastor that arrested her first. That is what brought all these.

ourema:
This is a great news for all of us in Nigeria. But my fears are quality control measures and effectiveness. Remember Dr Abalaka HIV Drugs that went viral years ago. Thank God this one is coming from the FG
Let us hope it works

You see how the source of this drug is known but not so in Abalaka's case. He kept hiding from all sort of questioning. He felt his knowledge would be stolen. When you have good knowledge to save the world, no one can steal it. I rather even save the world without compensation from anyone.

The guy that discovered polio vaccines never collected a dime till date. It saved the world from six killer diseases
