These days the mainstream hiphop artistes are getting all the shine from buying fast cars to headlining big concerts in and outside the country to getting mouth watering endorsement. Artistes of other music genre are trying hard to catch up with the lavish lifestyle of the hiphop artistes.
With all the blings, swags and hype of these hiphop artistes, most of them cannot even perform with a live band not to talk of performing for an hour on stage. The big question now is if you have two concerts to attend, one 2face is to headline the concert and the second Pasuma is to headline the concert but you only have the opportunity to attend just one who would you rather spend your hard earned 10k to watch perform, 2face or Pasuma?

Before you rush and make your choice lets weigh the options. 2face Idibia is more likely to give you adlib perfromance while Pasuma would give you quality live music with his band. 2face has a lot of popular songs that you can easily sing along to and enjoy, on the other hand Pasuma has very few songs that our generation are aware of. 2face would most likely perform for 10 minutes while Pasuma would give you 1 hour nonstop performance.

After breaking it down for you, now you can share with us who you would rather spend your hard earned 10,000 naira to watch perform; the legendary 2face Idibia or Fuji maestro Pasuma Wonders.

i which ma fone could have "Recycle bin". at least anytin i loose on it would be retrive back e.g Contact. videos. document. music. app.

BREAKING NEWS...
Just yesterday on Nat Geo Wild, it was
announced
that a very dangerous snake had just
been
discovered. Scientists claim that the
snake is an
enhanced specie of the reptile family.
According to Nat Geo Wild, the snake
increases 0.5cm in
l ength every time it feeds and it feeds
every 30seconds or
less. This particular snake cannot be killed
or harmed by
weapon except it bites itself. Surprising
huh?
Scientists claim that's the only way it can
be killed but
researches are still ongoing to discover
new ways this
snake can be killed. This is the most
poisonous and
deadliest snake ever recorded in the
history of man. This
snake can only be found in Nokia
torchlight mobile phone
under game option, Snake Xenzia.
Thanks for carefully and patiently reading
this through. You
can now go back to what you were
doing!!! (

*****NEW SCAM OO!!***** Don't fall a victim o!
You will never believe what happened to me today. I still
can't get over it. I went to the supermarket by d road side to
pick
something to eat pending d time I get home. As I was
walking to d counter, I noticed this woman starring at me. I
looked at her and kept walking to the front to pick bottled
water and gala. As I
picked them and turned, I found the same woman right
behind me! I tried to show her some love, so I smiled & said
"Gudday maa". Then I went on to get a teen bita lemon. Can
u believe the same woman followed me? I was getting a little
bit nervous and mad because she was following me without
saying a thing. But I tried to stay friendly, I just said "Gudday
maa" again. She finally responded and said, "I am sorry for
starring, but you look just like my youngest son We just
buried him two weeks ago" I felt silly for getting mad as I
expressed my sympathy to her. She said she was fine as she
knows that his Child is with the Lord. She then asked me to
do her a favour which I obliged. She said "I'm a bit sad that
my child never said goodbye to me before
passing on". She said i wil do sumtin 4 her, she asked me to
get in line behind her so when she's leaving the store, I
should say "goodbye mum" so she could have some sense
of closure. Though
her request was weird, I however
agreed to grant it. So as she collected her bags from the
cashier and walked away, I said
"bye mum". She turned and said "bye my son".
When d cashier calculated my stuff, she said d total was
N18,750. I said what!!!
Can u tell me how a N70 bottled water, N50 gala and N100
teen bitter lemon equals N18,750?
She said "your mum said you are paying for hers too".
My mum? I shouted. That woman is not my mother ooo!!!. I quickly rushed out just in time to see the woman
approaching the parking lot. I ran after her and was screaming..."excuse me, excuse me!!!". She started running. I caught up with her just before she was able to close the door of her cab. I kept on pulling and pulling her leg, just like I am pulling yours now!
You too like gist self. See as u serious dey read....Abeg who get Nokia small pin charger?! Make I charge my phone!..

1. How are you doing?

Tip: You don't have to be nervous and answer in a formal way. This question is basically asked to make you comfortable.

Fine, Thank you.
2. Have you ever been to Canada before?

Tip: Though Visa officer has the record of all your visits to Canada but you have to tell them the truth. If you have been there then you should remember the date of arrival & departure.

Yes I have been to Canada once in 2006 on a tourist Visa.

Or

No, I have not been to Canada so far.

If yes then it is advisable to remember the date of last arrival and departure from Canada.
3. Why do you want to study in canada?

Tip: Visa officer wants to understand your intentions to go to Canada. As you are applying for student Visa so you should only talk about that.

I want to go there to pursue my Masters degree. Because of the ample research facilities and global exposure available there. I will be completely equipped in terms of practical exposure, by being in contact with people from different nations and working with the best technology.
4. Why did you select this particular university?

Tip: You should go through the website and handbook of your university carefully. Pen down some highlighted features such as World ranking, the research facility, the faculty profile, Alumni profile etc. Visa officer wants to know the reason behind joining the particular University.

E.g. I was keen to study in a university which can give me quality education so while searching various options I found that this university has got the best faculty available in my subject. Even the research facilities are very good. Moreover it is listed in the top 50 universities of the world with well known professionals as its Alumni's.
5. For which course are you going?

Tip: You should go through the course content carefully. You should know everything such as: Duration, Fee, commencement & end date, Credits points, curriculum etc about your course.

6. Why did you choose this course?

Tip: You should be very clear about your future plans after doing this course. Prepare a good statement mentioning about: How course is relevant to your previous degree, how this course adds value to you profile, why you are interested in doing this course etc.

This course is related to my previous studies as I have done my B.Tech (Computer Science) and I would like to continue my education in the same field. Moreover I am quiet interested in VLSI design and this course includes various modules related to that.

7. Why don't you do this course here in India?

Tip: You should know what difference the course would bring to you if done from Canada instead of India. If the course is not available in India, you can tell the Visa Officer that it is not offered in India. If the same course is available in India, highlight the differences in the quality of education and the course structure in India and Canada. You should convince the Visa Officer that doing this course from Canada will add value to your profile. Talk about a few researches being conducted in that field. Technical words work out when other things don't.

Similar course in India is entirely theoretical. Whereas the same course in Canada comes along with Internship and a lot of project work. Internship & projects will give me a lot of practical knowledge. After completing the course I will not get only the degree, but also experience in the field. Also, the research facilities are not that great here in India.
8. Which are the other universities you have applied to?

Tip: Visa Officer wants to know if you are really serious about your education. If you applied to 4 and were accepted in 1 and got 3 rejects, you should put it this way: I applied to 4, got 1 admit, 2 awaited and 1 reject. Visa Officer will have record of the Universities accepted your application and not of your rejections. You should say that the chosen university was your first choice.

I applied to four other universities and got calls from two of them. But I preferred to choose XYZ because of the research being carried out in the field of Bleep (mention the one related to your course) that interests me the most.

This will make the Visa officer believe that even after completing your education, you would like to do job and settle there.
24. Show me your GRE and TOEFL Score?

Tip: Carry all documents in such a way that it becomes easy for you to remove and present them to Visa Officer without any wastage of time, whenever asked for.
