meforyou1 is one igbo guy i respect, do not disrespect gbawe

my apologies

Ever since Barcanista tried me on a thread on a Senatorial election in Niger State where I grew up, I told him he was a hopeless political analyst and never took him serious since then.
The only thread he posted and I contributed actively was the one he was begging one hopeless gbawe for money and security cover.
But since morning, I had been going through the politics forum and most threads tend to focus on him. It was only then I found his offending thread on igbos.
Let's just let him be. We have seen people revise history pertaining to igbos worse than him.
We are igbos. We know ourselves.
God that saved him was where he mentioned Ndizuogu, my hometown in that his ndoki is from Ijaw from benin thread. Was waiting for him to say ndizuogu came from benin let me set this politics forum alight.

To be faithful loyal and honest and to be loyal faithful and honest. What is the difference if not the order of a word.

Wike is still the governor. What supreme Court ruled was on issue of jurisdiction

what's wrong with the demand?

omenka:
I thought you guys "have made peace and licked your wounds". Why use such unsavoury language on people you are at peace with?? Lmao..

Morning bro.

Truth is, even though we go at each others' throats on the forum and threaten to roast ourselves in the crater of Mount Vesuvius, our opinion here accounts for just about nothing in the grand scheme of things in the outside world especially as regards the heritage and destinies of the various ethnic nationalities in the country.

Come on guys, even the entire population on the forum, including visitors, aren't up to 2mill. When you put that figure into perspective, you'd realise just how needless these e-fights are.

this APC, are u now a peace maker?

modestdude:
Students Union Government is DEAD.

In the days of yore, Students Union Executives would have beaten the Doctor blue black upon his refusal to write the referral letter.

I don't think they (SUG) understand the FORCE at their whims and caprices which they command and which rest on their shoulder.

those your student union executives are foools. Why will a doctor write a referral letter on a patient he did not see or treat?

Why didn't they rush the girl to FMC direct?
Hospitals have Accidents and Emergency wards. And that doesn't need referral.

Students and senselessness. Why blame the university doctor? How can he write a referral letter without seeing the patient?

themountain:
My friend actually graduated with a 2.2. He knows he graduated with a 2.2. Yet he was awarded a certificate of 2.1. Should he return the certificate or just take it that he has a 2.1. and use it in searching for work. Are there any implications?

no implication. It is the certified true copy of the certificate issued by the university

diplomat51:
Just sue them.. They will remember how to reduce but very difficult to add half score for someone. Get your complete evidence and sue them for damages. Don't forget to get a written note from the Attorney.

not easy to win cases against universities. And he or she will be suing on a wrong premise. In Nigeria, U are not supposed to have access to your transcript in the first place.
So they come to court and present a transcript of yours, after panel beating and say it is your true and certified transcript.

neocortex:
What school are you referencing ?
All the transcripts I have come across list ALL the courses including those
not used for cgpa calculation.
The aim of transcript is to show all the courses a student offered while in school.

FUTMINNA. I have a photocopy of my transcript. And everything in it was used to calculate my CPGA

neocortex:
Everything is presented on the transcript i.e core, mandatory or elective,
it doesn't mean that they were used to calculate your cgpa.

everything presented on the transcript is used to calculate CGPA

banio:
Very funny. So in Nigeria, U won't monitor ur stuff, then U die well. Assuming U are sending Ur transcript to America and U did not bother and the school sends the wrong transcript or even worse the school does not send ur transcript. My friend it's ur duty to monitor ur stuff

not in nigeria o. In FUTMINNA, u state the university that it should be sent to, prices of delivery are stared. They send it to the university direct.

Fraih:
Wow, 11 years, thats a very long time, a lotta things woulda changed in his department and senate, But then, Impossible is nothing. ..

doesn't matter one bit. The records are still there.
When I requested for my transcript 5 years ago, they gave me to photocopy it before they sealed it and sent it to the university I requested for.
Things changed. My school ID number was slightly modified to the new concept of ID cards they had then. my department name changed. My local govt name changed. But the records are the same. Intact.

akman:
Sue the school. That is the only sane thing to so

it's not that easy o. You are not even supposed to have access to your transcript in the first place. They should rather write

neocortex:
How did you calculate it ?
I am asking this because the department reserves the right to
calculate your cgpa using the courses they prefer.

they calculated what was presented on the transcript which is the final copy

Op, your friend should write to the Registrar of the University immediately and attach photocopy of the transcript.
He should also go and make enquiries. Because he is not supposed to have access to the transcript in the first place. Transcripts are usually sent to universities the applicant request for directly.
He should write now.
And he needs to engage a lawyer.

baby124:
This smells like a scam. Except her father is mixed race which doesn't sound like it. She looks like an Asian girl raised in Nigeria who wants to play for the team but forming stories.

forming what story. Her dad is nigerian so she is a full blooded nigerian

Kano, Sokoto, others conduct mass weddings for 3,000


More than 3, 000 couples were married off in various mass weddings held in four states of the North West within the last three years NAN reports.

NAN reports that the mass weddings were initiated by state governments and private organisations largely for widows, orphans and divorcees in the areas.

In Kano State, 2, 450 couples benefitted from the programme introduced by Gov. Rabi’u Kwankwaso in 2013.

Hajiya Zahra’u Umar, the Deputy Commander, Kano State Hisba Board, told NAN that the event was in four phases, with the first set consisting of 100 couples, followed by 250, 1, 000 and 1, 100 couples respectively.

She described the programme as “very successful”, adding that the board had resolved less than 10 per cent complaints it received from some of the couples.

“Some of the cases are attitude related which the couples found after the weddings and they reported to the board for resolution.”

Umar explained that all the couples had undergone series of sensitizations prior to the wedding, to ensure harmonious living.

She revealed that each of the women received N20, 000 grant to set up businesses, so as not to be fully dependant on their husbands.

Umar listed some of the challenges facing the programme to include inadequate time to prepare the couples, managing new behaviours of some of them and health related issues discovered after the marriage.

According to her, the programme has helped to identify those living with HIV/AIDS, some of whom did not even know they have it.

She noted that donations by the public and non-governmental organizations had facilitated the training of the women in various skills to empower them to be self reliant.

According to her, the board has set up a monitoring team to keep track of the couples and offer advice in case of any dispute between them.

In Kaduna, the Secretary, Darul Rahma Foundation, Malam Abdurrahman Adam said that the mass wedding organised by the foundation in April 2014 was a huge success.

Adam told NAN that only six cases of divorce were recorded out of the 100 couples married off during the ceremony.

“The objective of the mass wedding has been achieved. Our target is to reduce the number of unmarried women in the society, and we have done that successfully”, he said.

He said that the foundation was tracking those who benefited from the gesture.

Adam said that the organisation had also set up a dispute settlement mechanism to intervene in case of disagreement among the couples.

“There is no marriage without a problem, so we do settle amicably, issues that crop up from time to time.

“In case of those that were divorced, we had looked at the issues that came up and agreed that the best option was for the couples to separate.

“No man is allowed to divorce his wife without our knowledge. Before the marrige, we signed agreement with them so that any problem that comes up, we have to know”, Adam said.

The secretary disclosed that about N20 million, in cash and kind, were raised for the mass wedding from donations received from the general public.

Adam said N1.5 million was spent on the payment of dowry, while part of the money was spent on the purchase of household items and other materials such as sewing machines, to assist the women establish businesses.

“No amount was give to any man; we ensured that those coming over for the marriage had something doing to support the family.”

The secretary recalled that a lot of people had come over with the intention to cheat, but were detected and sent away.

“Some of them were married but they came and lied so that they can benefit from what we bought for the women like beds, mattresses, kitchen utensils and other things, and when we found out, we retrieved the items,” he said.

He also observed that some of the women sold off the items bought for them instead of utilising them properly to enhance their livelihood.

In Zamfara, the 273 couples that benefited are living peacefully, according to Malam Sani Usman, Secretary, Widows and Divorcees Association, organisers of the mass wedding.

Usman said the mass wedding, supervised by the state Hisbah Commission, was funded by well-to-do individuals in the state.

“The majority of the couples are living peacefully except for some minor cases which we resolved amicably at the association’s level.”

Also, the Chairman of the state hisbah commission, Dr Atiku Zawiyya described the efforts of the association as “wonderful”.

Zawiyya said the state government would soon commence the financing of the programme.

From Sokoto, where the state government spent N30 million on the mass wedding of 125 couples in January, 2014, a new set of 250 couples would soon be joined in matrimony.

“In all, there were 125 couples, comprising of 125 grooms and 125 brides.

“Each of the 125 grooms was given N50,000, out of which a dowry of N20, 000 was paid per bride, N10,000 for wedding clothes and N20,000 for initial upkeep.

“Each of the brides was also given a set of furniture, bed and beddings, and other household utensils,” said Alhaji Aliyu Kofar-Rini, the Chairman, Sokoto State Sunnah Marriage Mediation Council.

He commended the state government for sponsoring the exercise, saying that it had drastically reduced the number of unmarried men and women in the state.

gerrout. When kwankwaso did mass wedding for Muslims in Kano, which Christain bad mouthed him?


Kano state government said it spent N238 million to conduct the latest mass wedding ceremony for 1000 couples in the state.
Speaking during a wedding reception organised for the couples at the Government House at the weekend, Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, explained that the idea of conducting mass wedding for divorcees and widows was part of measures to ease the hardship encountered by the less privileged.
According to him, “government will also conduct another round of mass wedding for another 1000 couples as soon as possible.”
He commended the effort of the Hisbah Board as well as the Islamic clerics in the state for making the mass wedding successful.
“I thank Almighty Allah for giving us the opportunity to witness this noble day which our administration, with the help of Allah and the commitment of our clerics,” made possile, Kwankwaso said as he also prayed for the couples to have marital bliss and tasked them to utilise the opportunity given them.
The wedding which is said to be the first of its kind in Africa, took place simultaneously at the Emir of Kano’s palace and the palaces of the districts heads of the 44 local government areas in the state.
In his address, Commandant-General of the Hisbah Board, Sheikh Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, said that, “the state Government gave a capital grant of N20,000 to each of the brides to run small scale business which will compliment the effort of their grooms.”

Which kind red card in dying minutes of the game. Ref should have given the card in the first half
