That is the only way we can move forward
These guys are very backward
Always taking us back
Imagine them giving US the impression we are siding Iran. What has Nigeria benefitted from Iran? How many of our people bold dey travel go Iran.

Kingspin:
You are confusing yourself the more.

Why would I criticise the North as long as their crazy things are for Muslims and by Muslims?

Adeleke is own by a Church. Before you enrol there term and condition.
Go to another school that is either secular mix school or look for Islamic school to attend. What is hard here?

Even some Christians will opt out of Adeleke because of the conditions, so why is it hard for Muslims to follow suit?

This is the simplest commendation.
Seek another school full stop or wait Adeleke change their rules.

Is a private school, not the government.

Smartchoiice:
The Muslim should leave the school

Kingspin:
Imposed your Islamic thing strictly to Muslim institutions only.

All of us cannot be an extremist.

Nigeria is a secular state where Muslims, Christians and others meet and interact differently.

If you are a Christian or Muslim don't crossover if you do there are terms and conditions.

If you are not ready to follow them find a secular (mix) school/institution.

That what a reasonable person can easily do. Stop causing confusion.

Jimiyung:
As a matter of fact, deji adeleke is one of the main financier of Babcock University and also has a hostel in his name. He is a strong adventist and decided to adopt same in his University (the university is more of charity as most students there are not paying fees). It is his school and decides what is in the handbook and what way of life student should adhere to while in his school. If you cannot follow the rules, you leave. After all, you were not kidnapped to the school. No sentiment in this. Also, you need to brush up because your arguments are baseless. Its all sentiments, no reasoning. If you need info on the school, go to Ede and stop all this website yarns.

I schooled in babcock (graduated 05) and none of my muslim classmates or friends missed chapel except you are out of school. It did not stop them from being muslim. Its just 4yrs or you go to like UI or Lag and spend forever there because of chapel.. i repeat, we like lawlessness

2special:
They will go to a Christian university and be causing problems there after accepting the rules and regulations before admission.

iamclime:
Are churches supposed to have employees in the first place? I thought they were non-profits and should have non-salaried volunteers?
Am I missing something?

Ecpet83:
One of my closed friend and colleague was also employed and posted to Ebonyi from Benue. Infact he has about 8 days before collecting his salary, but he left to join the winners work force. Though am not a winner, but I know the Bishop is doing a great job. Glory to God.

DMerciful:
Same treatment given to Yorubas in 1999 should be given to Igbos period!
You proponents of one Nigeria, the handwriting is on the wall

DMerciful:
Bubu hated the Igbos first from 1983. Also he said in 2001 that God willing sharia will be spread over Nigeria, Igbos and sharia are opposite. The Igbos believe in liberalism while Bubu believes in state total control, again difference. All the project you attributed to Bubu was started and had gone considerable extent under GEJ else Bubu wouldn't have done anything. His policies are tending to suppress the Igbos but he failed

Rilley:
I've taught him some skills and he's earning times 10 of what he was earning as a teacher, he quited his teaching job already.

yarimagombe:
For me is better for her to stay in ABU to study even CRS than to go to local university like Benue state university to study MBBS. cos ABU is far better than BSU a part of academic excellence zero cultistim etc.

rafhell:
Nice gesture by the governor.
It is high time we get rid of the retrogressive quota system of a thing.
Merit should be encouraged so we don't end up with the likes of buhari in future

Nasige:
You are very correct, the employment letter been issued in the last 3 weeks in most of the tertiary institution will shuck you, to me ASUU is using delay tactics to cover up their mess.

RisenPhoenix:
These lecturers think that we are illiterate. Point 5 is the only valid one for not wanting IPPIS and that door should be closed. 'Visiting lecturer' clause can be overabused, from the school not hiring a needed permanent lecturer for a course (while including it in expenses), to having a lecturer spending more time 'visiting' other institutions while neglecting his place of permanent employment; only to show up a week to exams and start selling out poorly written, unexplained handouts or textbooks written by himself specifically for that purpose.

OoniOfIfe:







What do u expect?
Even Buhari is not academically qualified to be president.
Tanko is also not qualified to be CJN


Unqualified lecturers full north.
It will take d grace of God to understand an English a northern lecturer is speaking.
Apart from Unijos nd ABU other northern uni lecturers at not even qualified to teach in southern primary schools

godbless120:
Barca fans are still pained about that 4-0 @anfield

ProWalker:
The Northerners gave it to you on a platter of gold with a quit notice sometime back. guess what happened?! Your elders were running all over the place to seek for forgiveness

johnwell:
If our leaders were to adopt the system of governance church uses, this country would've been developed.
u mean how all funds from local churches flows to headquarters and members are still tasked for project from headquarters...? when monies generated from local assembly should remain there at least 60 or 70 percent... then if need be assistance can come from the headquarters...? I get your points but the christendom still has her wahala despite the imminent achievements...


Useless country, useless leaders with their useless taxes. Upon all the taxes they have nothing to show, they are still borrowing heavily.

BabaRamota1980:
Hey dude, at 35, a man should already have two wives and with kids if everything went well. I understand things are not well in this Nigeria now, in fact things have never been well in Nigeria. Never! A man is blessed with certain elemental energies that is lacking in women. One of those is labour productivity and skill proficiency.

Unlike women, money is always within reach of a man but he has to employ his skill so the door can unlock for that money to drop into his hand.

Our psyche about social progress and our awareness of self has been greatly damaged by a society which places academic excellence next to God and positions self below book knowledge. Man must stand next to God. No other way. A man that puts book knowledge between himself and God will end becoming a great and knowledgeable person in the book but his self-knowledge is adversely diminished and utterly destroyed.

I will give you example. In USA, more than 80% of university graduates also have a handjob or artisan skill on the side. A barber, a mechanic, an electrician, construction worker, plumber, machinist, mason, painter, roofer, cook, baker, event planner....name it, they have it! The self is not ignored while learning book.

In our society we ignore everything and hug book. At the end of the day we forget to live. This is your case. While in camp girls were coming to you and showing interest, yet you remained a virgin. You neglected self.

When i did my NYSC girls ran away from me and the few ones I managed to bed came with great effort and convincing....but I left my mark!

My advice to you is rebirth yourself. Get a camera, learn photography and find a studio. Learn painting, plumbing, whatever you love to do...beside books. Leave books alone. Move yourself next to God immediately and books come after you. By this im not talking about prayer devotional worship or sleeping in Church, far from it. I meant be selfish with everything and everyone except God and yourself.

Get pussy. Good pussy! You are not too old for an 18yr old. Get good sweet pussy from an 18yr old. It will help reinvent your inner fire and pump up your manliness for self rediscovery. Dont get her pregnant, you dont need drama at moment.

Marriage will come later after your trade is well grounded and income is regular and steady.

When i was your age i was already 3yrs married and first baby on the way. I have added a second wife, and im not too far ahead from you in age. Matrimony is a school on its own, and women are the teachers. Any man that marries and hopes to teach his woman a lesson is kidding himself, after much confrontation he will end up dead or surrenders and become her student. God gave them that secret power, no man can take it from them.

I wish you luck bro....but please, break that virginity and start your journey to discovery. Live life, dont allow books to dim your divine power.

masseratti:
I don't understand what you are saying, seems you and the school does not understand what a cut off mark is, cut off mark is strictly based on merit, no other thing should come forth, most schools proud themselves for producing the best brains, that's why "cut off mark" is, another conditions, like state, catchments, sports abilities comes after that.

My point is simply that the school should have known what students who applied to attend scored and determine what their cut off mark will be, rather than announcing a cut of mark that a good number on a state scored, this is so simple, after that they can use other criteria to admit others... This is not rocket science, but this is what have been holding Nigeria back since.

bnovative:
Are you a malabite?
That's by the way.
The Op told so many lies in his write up and I feel the public deserve to know the truth.
As competitive as we think medicine is, facts results from jamb had shown little percent made above 300, and not all who made above 300 applied for mbbs.
Also, northern states present the least number of students for mbbs and most southerners who studied medicine didn't study in the core north. Reason? Insecurity.
How did I arrive at this?
Check the booklets of nysc that had all the corpers passing out in a batch, especially doctors and the institution they attended and tell me how many doctors did their mbbs up north. Collect as many booklets as possible, from friends, different batches and state ; then you will have a glue of my point.
I served in Kano state in 2006 and I know the north don't post the few medical officers of northern extraction, out of the north. But even at that, my batch had 15 medical officers and 1 was from the north.
There's no way this girl should be denied admission except on religious grounds. If not on merit, Niger state is among the elds, and could still made it on that ground.

bnovative:
I should ignore you because you are not the Op, but let me respond as follows :
I don't do sentiment in my analysis of issues. Any opinion you can't support with facts is a lie.
This op isn't the spokes person for ABU, and he rushed to spew this "There are some unique facts about ABU that we must appreciate which includes among so many others; ABU is the most cosmopolitan University in the whole of Africa not even Nigeria �� it’s no news that ABU Zr has students from each and every of the 774 local governments in �� which makes it a mini ��. lie." lie number 1.
Also transparent admission should be published for the public to see. Everything else is a shame. When a school is called out like the case of ABU, it should be their position to show how transparent they have been in carrying out the admission process. Is that too hard for u?
"

chewwie:
Let me get this straight. So if a boy or girl from Borno or Yobe scores 201 as the highest in the state, he or she will get into MBBS ahead of a girl who scored 300+ because of quota, diversity and inclusiveness? What baloney! Total malarkey! Where is the reward for her hard work? She would have easily sat for her WASSCE, cheated, made 6 credits, and enter road forking all the boys in Niger state, get pregnant abort, spread HIV, and constitute nuisance, but no, she decided to work hard.
The incompetence in our educational system is grossly alarming!

bnovative:
The Op can only post this because majority of people here can't ask objective questions.
1. The process of admission is the same in all federal university in Nigeria. The merit, catchment area and educational less developed state.
2. Out of the 120 students claimed to be admitted to mbbs in Abu, all states can't have their quota of 2 to 3 candidates applied to ABU. The reason is parents from non northern states will hardly allow their wards who want to study mbbs, apply to northern university because of insecurity. Can the Op publish the names, scores and state of origin so we can see the transparency?
3 is Niger state one of ABU's catchment area or elds?
4. You claimed she ranked 7th from her state, can you publish the name and scores from her state.
U advised a brilliant girl that was on her parthway to study mbbs, to enroll in anatomy, are you for real.
Answer these and we can continue from here.
Besides are you the spokes person for ABU? I doubt.

ComradeShegs:
Please if u have nothing to type, then just read comments and pass. If it's difficult for u to cram, that doesn't necessarily mean it will be difficult for others too. Go and complete with an Arabic Studies student in cramming and see if he doesn't defeat u hands down.. People wey dem Don dey flog with cane right frm childhood on how to recite the Quaran.

masseratti:
this does not make sense, you don't change the rule during the match, before you set a cutoff mark you ought to know what they scored, catchment area thing can not supercede someone that beats the cut off mark.. This school is a disgrace to education... Point blank.

chewwie:
Medicine and Surgery is like gold in Nigeria. My guy is about to write his 5th Jamb in hopes of getting MBBS. And he has never scored less than 260 in all previous attempts. Sad!

immantoks:
Go to Obafemi Awolowo university ,you will see Hausas studying medicine. I used to be friend with one but he has graduated and ABU is a federal university

themonk:
I dont think ABU Zaria cutoff for medicine can be more than 280. UNN and ABU are not the same school, how many smart people want to go to Zaria?

ComradeShegs:
I've said this countless times, this quota system isn't helping matters in any way, because it invariably adores mediocrity at the expense of meritocracy. Myself and my sisters being Christians from Oyo state were fortunate enough to gain admission in ABU. My elder sis read Mathematics, I just finished this year with a degree in Political Science & International Studies and my immediate younger sister is currently reading Business Educ moving to her second year. We all applied ones...

While in school, you'll meet “abokis” who can't construct a correct sentence in 400L. Infact, what usually helps some of them is cramming. “Ma broda, Hausa sabi cram for Africa ”. But tell them to engage in a verbal reasoning, na there you don spoil everything.

If you confront them on the marginalisation of southerners in securing admission, they start bringing up the quota system and how it's also difficult for northerners to gain admission down south, even though I strongly feel Federal institutions shouldnt be tied to it. It can be understood if such system is practiced in State owned institutions.
