Several clueless people on this topic. Well, the truth is that, betting requires a whole lot of work and it is not for the lazy people who want to make quick cash and not do the work. In betting, they take the money of the foolish and give to the wise. They also take the money of the senseless poor people and give it to the rich. Like every other business, betting is a business and must be taken from a business point of view.

The Nobel Prize is awarded each year to celebrate achievements in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology/Medicine, Literature, and Peace. Of these, several are from the African continent. South Africa's Max Theiler was the first African to win a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1951. In 1960, Albert Luthuli of South Africa was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, becoming the first black African to win a Nobel Prize. In 1991, Nadine Gordimer of South Africa became the first white African woman to win a Nobel Prize when she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. In 2004, Wangari Maathai of Kenya was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize becoming the first black African woman to win a Nobel Prize. 5. Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela became the first black South African president in 1994 until 1999 when he retired. He was born on July 18, 1918, in Umtata, South Africa. He pursued law at the University of the Witwatersrand. However, he faced much discrimination in the predominantly white school. With Frederik Willem de Klerk, Mandela was the co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize 1993 for staging a peaceful demonstration against the apartheid regime and offering a platform for a democratic South Africa. Mandela remained a philanthropist throughout his life and in 2008, in his 90th birthday celebration, he asked the rich to extend a hand to the poor people around the world. Mandela died on December 5, 2013, at his home with his family surrounding him. A state funeral was held on December 15 and was attended by more than ninety heads of states and government from all over the world.
4. Kofi Annan Kofi Atta Annan served as the seventh Secretary-General of the United Nations in 1997 until 2006. He was born on April 8, 1938, in Kofandros, Ghana. He was schooled at the Methodist School before proceeding to the Kumasi College of Science and Technology to study a course in economics. He later studied at Macalester College in Minnesota, United States. UN and Annan jointly received the 2001 Nobel Peace Prize for his dedication to human rights.
3. Albert Luthuli Albert Luthuli was a South African politician who served as the President of the African National Congress (ANC) after his election in 1952. The ANC fought against discrimination from the white minority government in the country. Albert Luthuli was born in 1898 and died on July 21, 1967, in an accident. After completing his teaching course, he taught at a primary in Blaausboch, Natal as the principal and the only teacher. Luthuli was elected to the committee of ANC a year after joining the body. The following year he organized non-violent campaigns together with other ANC members to hurl defiance at the discriminatory laws introduced by the minority government. In 1960, Luthuli received the Nobel Peace Prize for his contribution to nonviolent campaigns against the apartheid.
2 Wangari Maathai Wangari Maathai was a Kenyan environmentalist born on April 1, 1940. She attended the University of Pittsburgh in the USA as well as the University of Nairobi in Kenya. Wangari founded the Green Belt Movement in 1997, a non-profit organization engaged in women rights advocacy, tree planting and the protection of the environment. After receiving the Right Livelihood Award in 1984, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004 and became the first woman from Africa to receive such award for her contribution to sustainable development, democracy, and peace. She passed away in the year 2011 from cancer.
1. Wole Soyinka
Wole Soyinka is a Nigerian poet and playwright born on July 13, 1934. He studied both in Nigeria and the United Kingdom, after which he got a job with the Royal Court Theatre in London. Here, he wrote plays. He taught at different universities including Harvard, Yale, and Oxford. Soyinka received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1986 in the field of literature. Among his works are Mandela’s Earth poem, essays such as Dialogue and Outrage, and A Voyage Around Essay.
I once memorized all the Nobel prize winners and I cannot find Bishop Desmond Tutu on your list. I think he won it in 1984.
SMH. It is too good to be true right? You need to leave whatever cave you are in. I can sponsor your excursion. There will be another E-voting next week.
VessyO: It is just a shame that a good number of you Naira landers are like your fathers who have refused to acknowledge anything good coming from the East. How come we never heard that all other universities have been using electronic voting until today when UNIZIK successfully accomplished this feat? You guys go ahead and continue doing your e-voting with your empty mouths. We know where innovation always from in this country. Shame on the lazy drones who see nothing good in others. When INEC told us all that it was not possible now, you empty brains did not remember to tell them it's not lie...that so many universities are already using it. Congratulations UNIZIK.
Why don't you verify if the claims are true first or not. In a primary school in Lekki, elecrronic voting is a norm. I think you need to go out more.
bencliff2017: Thank you very much, can you suggest a very good school for me around basorun , akobo area I want to change my son school and presently I am not in the country
Sorry for the late response. I'm not so familiar with Oyo and the environs.
Martinez39: In the picture below, form the matrices X, Y and C as shown.
Using the curve fitting application in linear algebra,
What it means is that you multiple the transpose of X, XT , on the right by X to form a new matrix, say B, such that B = XTX
Then, in a similar fashion, you find the matrix product A = XTY
Finally, to get C, Multiple the B-1, on the right by A, so C = B-1A N.B: you would have to do the workings on your own to verify my answer. I can show my workings but the computation is very very very very tedious, much and long. I only have them on a rough sheet. I was about abandoning it until you said you needed the solution for an exam.
Onlinedet: Naah don't stress it bro..... Someone sent me the question to help him solve, but it looked strange to me (not like the normal matrix i knw).... If u can solve it, fine, if u wont, fine...... Jst allow others to do it....
Here is the solution bro. Like I said, it is not matrix but differentiation. You learn the concept under Calculus aspect of Mathematics.

Okay. I get you now. It is not matrix, it is differentiation bro. Although it says determinant, it is not asking for the determinant of a matrix. You need to find dee Y, dee X written as dy/dx. Let me solve it for you. BRB.
Psalmistproject: TINIBU SHOULD BETTER WATCH IT AS THIS MAY BE THE CASE OF DAVID AND GOLIATH.
HE FEELS HE HAS ALL THE ADVANTAGES UNTIL AMBODE HITS HIM WITH GRINDSTONE all his puppets will cower for safety under the shameless bane of abandonment.
Yeah.... He needs to watch it. Even if you turn impotent, Tinubu should be blamed. He should also be blamed for every failure in your life.
9jaRealist: So what happened to Ambode security-wise during his 4 years in office?
With all due respect, again with silly ASSUMPTIONS. Every bank (because it is required) and most businesses successfully attacked in Nigeria has CCTV. CCTV is NOT a magic bullet, and accordingly it is the responsibility of the security professionals in charge of the Governor's security (usually the DSS) to design his security architecture, and obviously whatever they designed for Mr. Ambode actually WORKED!! >
.... And it is not possible that CCTV was part of the design. Right? Humour me! If it isn't part of it then the entire DSS and the ex governor himself must be all stupid.
omerukokwuru: bros your power of imagination is very low, if the said bag had money in it and the agents of efcc were given a free reign to search without close supervision from the able lawyers don't you think that the agents could take the bag into his room where there is no CCTV and offload the content of the bag and then turn around to claim that a large stash of cash was discovered let's say in his wardrobe while they work out with the an empty bag for the CCTV to capture them leaving with the bag ?
Read well Oga. They were searched outdoors. Provide the CCTV footage or go to bed. What a hogwash!
9jaRealist: Again, do you have CCTV in your own compound? Or are you (as per your logic) "stupid" as well? Apart from the fact that it's his private/personal home, it would be the responsibility of the DSS to design his security architecture. >
Do I hold a political office? Am I on the same level of security threat like a governor? Do I walk with guards? Do I move in convoys?
This question itself is senseless bro. Comparing a normal citizen with a governor and expecting a similar level of security. CCTV is even the basics of security measures.
9jaRealist: You can be appalled by REALITY, but quit making silly ASSUMPTIONS... There was NO CCTV in Ex-Gov Akume's house or Ex-Gov Peter Obi's house or Ex-Gov Yari's house, etc., etc. >
Where is the assumption bro? If he didn't have a CCTV in a place he stayed for 4 years as a governor, then he must be very stupid.
9jaRealist: You are making an ASSUMPTION without any factual basis... When Ex-Gov Yari's own country home was recently searched by EFCC, did you see any CCTV?! >
What assumption? He passes my hood almost every weekend and goes to Epe almost every weekend even when he was a governor. So, you think there won't be a CCTV in his house? You think a person of his caliber won't have CCTV in a place he stays almost every weekend? I'm appalled by your reasoning. Honestly! ...... Moreover, how does stating that it will be stupid for an ex governor not to have camera in a house he stayed almost every weekend as a governor equate to an assumption?
