Do you know the limit the school can admit from the NUC guidelines? Is the school of their catchment area?
Did they exceed the merit score?
Don't go around posting thrash, ask if you don't knw.
You just want to walk into the most subscribed university just like that cuz of some alleged high score... u try.

Post the images of their scores here and I will help you out.

Thanks Jose. You will remain the history books forever, not these fraudulent players.

It's strictly very against sunnah of our beloved prophet (saw).. it's reported he never used anything for azkar counting than his hands.. (his right hand) ... it's said that using an object for counting, especially the Tasbeehyu is an habit muslims adopted from Christians.. let's stay away from bidiah practices as it only leads to hell..




Salam alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakahtuhu

wa alykum salam warahmatullah... the beauty of islam is that except you have concrete evidence to ur claims or you're a scholar to issue fatwa, which obviously u r not. U cant just give some opinion of urs and expect it to be followed. Nothing bid'ah about tasbeeh.

what do u use in effecting the counting of a tesbeeh? Not same hand? The beads are dey any different to the pebbles dat can be used in making counts? The tasbeeh just make it easier. Its like expecting me not to use a calculator to do my arithmetic cuz u expect me to use abacus.

Anyway, if u present evidence that are concrete, its very welcome. I'm not a scholar of fiqh too.

Austin4lif:
We have said it times without number that this govt does nt respects human right. If his followers attacked ur convoy as claimed, why attack their leader and bulldozed his house and place of worship? What do u want to achieve by killing hundreds of his followers? Is it that u want to send them into extinction? In democracy there is freedom of association and the right to life. This is pure genocide and every body that believes in the sanctity of life must stand up and condemn this injustice. It is also a message to those shouting Biafra, do it with caution because we are in a military regime now, your own crackdown will be a child play. God bless Nigeria.

Some sane human of nairaland. I respect ur thoughts sir.

Mightymanna:
zazzaky should just call off this unnecessary gathering because the prophet (SAW)has never ask anybody to celebrate his birthday by trekking from from kano to zaria. they're just causing commotion and disturbing the peaceful nature zaria.people are dying every year because of this of zaria festival.instead of them to stay at home and fast like other pious muslims

Point noted. U're right on dem no to celebrate. How does that justify killing them every year? Isn't that how biko harm started? Killing pple indiscriminately.
Today is de shiites, who's next?

Do I qualify? What's the deal?

Islam, why?

and what did your dumb head tell you about the victims of boko harams? Christains? Use your common sense.

"Police investigations indicated that the men wrongly joined GEJ's convoy thinking it was that of Timipre Sylva who they were on the road campaigning with ahead of Saturday's guber election in Bayelsa."

For real? I just hope we know what we're doing in this country all in the name of stupid politics.

Feel for fill...

That Carpet.... If them born am well make him try the stunts beyond the carpet.

eddyj36:
I rep Unilorin.. Better by far ..107k is too much really and the school will not admit more than 5k entries 6k at most. So over 100k to be disappointed ... We need more schools in Nigeria.

Nope. the school has increased its intakes. from last session it was about 14-15000 freshers. so the standard would continue this year too.

PDP are good sportsman. APC hardly accepts defeats if at all sef.

I hope there is any change truly sha.

They'll soon brand condoms and starts distributing. Polithiefcians!

Awesome

[b]ANOTHER PASTOR WILL NOT HELP

Even if the Redeem Christian Church's Pastor Osibanjo emerges as Buhari's running mate members of Redeem will vote en mass AGAINST Buhari

That is why I am so interested in who becomes VP Candidate, it will make my point about the intolerance of the majority of Christian folks I have been speaking of and it will show the Muslims there is no hope in democracy although we have become slow learners if not we should have known from the following:

1) The unlikeliness of Fashola emerging despite growing gray hair on the job and banning hijab to please the non Muslims

2) The Northern Christian support for anyone from anywhere with any level of competence provided he is not a Muslim

3) The fact that the Christians of Taraba prefer a brain dead Governor (no insult intended may Allah heal him) who was involved in a plane crash to his able bodied deputy because he is a Muslim and the silence of the same people who took to the street to call for installment of Jonathan while Yar'adua was sick

4) The fact that to get votes into any office in Nigeria as a Federation you must not be caught saying anything like "In shaa Allah" or "I am a Muslim". You must continue to say "religion does not matter", "my friends have Christian wives", "My cook is a Christian, my driver is a Christian", among other apologies. If you must speak of Islam you must only speak of the areas with which it resembles Christianity or no votes

5) The fact that there is the consideration of "Christian votes", "Northern Votes", "Southern Votes", but nothing like "Muslim Votes" is ever discussed. It is not an issue, just tell the Muslims hypnotising phrases like "let us leave religious sentiment", you have them where you want them

6) The fact that Osun which is obviously Muslim dominated had a Christian Governor and a Christian Deputy and no Muslim complained but when there was even as much as a speculation of the suspicion of the possibility of having a Muslim-"Muslim" ticket in Buhari and Fashola everywhere turned upside down

7) The Igbo people support for Jonathan whose additional four years will ensure that an Igbo man which they desperately desire will not be President for the next 12 years (27 years of the New Democracy in Nigeria) and the fact that these same people will not vote for Rochas Okorocha even if Okorocha became APC Presidential candidate. The fact that he is around Muslims is good enough reason to reject their son. Some have even started calling him "Mallam Okorocha" as a way of showing their disgust

How many more facts can I state They are too many but we refuse to learn because one mirage shows up anytime the lesson is clear and we follow again with hope only for our hopes to be dashed again and again. Have the Pope as Vice, if you show sings of being a serious Muslim you will not get Christian vote![/b]

This newborn has a lot of bottle: British baby shocks medical profession by learning to feed herself at just three days old

Amara Chiedozie grabbed the milk bottle from her mum during a feed
Now holds bottle every time, which has amazed the doctors and nurses


Mothers of newborn babies welcome any offers of help to share the load.

So Onyi Chiedozie lucked out with the arrival of her baby daughter Amara, who learned to feed herself when she was only 72 hours old.

The child took matters into her own hands when she 'grabbed' her bottle during a feed and held it to her mouth unaided.


Amara Chiedozie strated feeding herself at just three days old

She first did it at three days old and now - at three weeks old - regularly holds her bottle and pushes it aside when she is full up.

Her mother Onyi, 20, who is using a combination of breast and bottle feeding, said everyone is amazed by the feat.

She said: 'She was crying as she was hungry and when we were feeding, she started shaking, then she just grabbed the bottle and she was holding it by herself.

'We couldn't believe it because babies don't normally do it that young, I'm so shocked that I have been documenting it every day.
Baby Amara Chiedozie could hold her bottle at 3 days old

It's unbelievable, even nurses are really surprised - when my health support nurse came she was shocked as well., she couldn't believe that this could happen.

'Whenever we go to appointments, we take pictures of her doing it.

Onyi Chiedozie couldn't believe it when her daughter grabbed the bottle during a feed

The midwife and even the doctor we had an appointment with on Saturday was actually amazed - they all couldn't believe it.'

Amara was born at Queen's Hospital in Romford, Essex, on August 3 weighing 6lbs 3oz.

Single mother Onyi, a student from nearby Chadwell Heath, is baffled by her daughter's amazing ability.
Now three weeks old, Amara Chiedozie is taking control of her bottle feeds

Now three weeks old, Amara Chiedozie is taking control of her bottle feeds

She said: 'I just think she has a lot of strength, I'm not sure why though as she wasn't particularly heavy when she was born.

'When she doesn't want it she will push it away.

'She isn't strong enough to throw it away, but she does push it away, like she does with her dummy.

'If she is really hungry, she starts shaking, then she will just grab the bottle as you give it to her.'

On May 7, 2015, a Nigerian, Chuka Umunna, could make history by becoming the first black Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Born in London in 1978, Chuka was bred in the UK. His late father, Bennett, hailed from Anambra State while his Irish mother, Patricia, is a solicitor.

Co-incidentally, Chuka shares startling similarities with the United States President, Barack Obama, who is the first black President of the world’s most powerful nation.

For instance, Chuka is of mixed race, being the child of a Nigerian father and an Irish mother while Obama is also of mixed race, being the offspring of a white American woman and a Kenyan father. Also Chuka’s father, Bennett, was killed in a mysterious car accident in Nigeria in 1992 while Obama’s father was killed in a car accident in Kenya in 1982.

If history repeats itself as it is being predicted by British political observers, Chuka, who is also a six-foot tall lawyer like Obama, could become the first black Prime Minister in the UK.

Chuka’s life story is perhaps a better guide to his future political direction. It is the story of a rise from the streets of South London (scene of some of Britain’s worse race riots in the 1980s) to the parliament. But it is not the story that some might expect.

His father, Bennett, was a Nigerian labourer, who arrived in Britain in the sixties with one suitcase and no money. Having borrowed the fare from Liverpool to London, he worked in a carwash, became a successful businessman and died in a car crash when his son was 13.

Bennett began an import-export business trading with Nigeria and was starting to make a decent living when he met Patricia Milmo, a solicitor, at a London party. She happened to be the daughter of Sir Helenus Milmo, a Cambridge-educated High Court judge and a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Nazi trials. They later got married, a rare combination during a time of high social inequality and racism.

Chuka believed his father was killed because he refused to indulge in corrupt practices when he was running for the governorship of Anambra State during the administration of former military dictator, General Ibrahim Babangida (retd.).

Bennett died after his car ran into a lorry carrying logs along the Onitsha-Owerri highway in Anambra. Bennett had been splitting his time between London and Nigeria – where he unsuccessfully ran for the governorship of Anambra State and had taken a stand against bribery.

At a point Bennett was also the owner of the Rangers International Football Club of Enugu, the darling of the Igbo people.

When quizzed about his father on Sky News, he had this to say: “There was a lot of speculation in Nigeria at the time around his death. He was a national political figure standing on an anti-corruption ticket and refused to bribe anybody.

“We don’t really talk about it because it is not going to bring him back but I think he would be bowled over that his son is now a politician just like him.”

Chuka, an English and French Law graduate from the University of Manchester, who also holds a Master’s degree from Nottingham Law School, says his interest in politics was shaped by seeing extreme poverty while visiting his father’s relatives in Nigeria and the social divide in his own Streatham constituency in the UK. He says that he is “not super-religious” but that his soft-left values are “rooted in my Christianity.”

The 35-year-old Labour Party Member of Parliament, however, has two hurdles to cross if he is to make history in the UK. This is because in the UK, for one to become the Prime Minister, the person must first be a Member of Parliament, the person’s party must win majority of seats out of the 560 seats in the House of Commons during the parliamentary elections and the person must be the leader of his party.

Presently, Chuka is the Member of Parliament for Streatham, a position he has held since 2010 but must re-contest in 2015 and win to retain the seat.

He is also the Shadow Business Secretary, a position held by a member of Her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition. The duty of the office holder is to scrutinise the actions of the government’s Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills and develop alternative policies. The office holder is a member of the Shadow Cabinet.

According to the UK Telegraph, Chuka is rumoured to have the strong support of a former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, who was also a Labour Party leader.

According to the British newspaper, when asked if he was Blair’s anointed candidate, Chuka said, “I really don’t know anything about that.” However, when he was pressed further whether he aspired to head his party, he said, “I don’t entertain any discussion beyond winning the election next year. That would be completely hypocritical of me. To start thinking about hypothetical scenarios would be totally indulgent. All my energy is focused on winning the election, and so should everyone’s. It will be very close.”

Chuka is one of the youngest MPs in the UK having been introduced into British politics by the current Labour Party leader, Ed Miliband, while he was in his 20s.

It was Milband that helped him become an MP and later made him his Parliamentary Private Secretary before he was promoted to the Shadow Cabinet in October 2011. He is tipped to become Miliband’s successor and could become the Prime Minister should the Labour Party win next year’s election.

Chuka, however, claims to hate the comparison of him and Obama which he terms the “construct of lazy journalists.” He sharply divides opinion in British politics. Good-looking, articulate, new-media-savvy and a good orator.

According to FT Magazine, he is not universally popular among his own colleagues, who see more style than substance. “He just has a knack of alienating people,” said one experienced Labour MP. “He is probably the most natural communicator I’ve seen since Tony Blair. The problem is that each week he has fewer supporters than he did at the start of the week.”

Even potential allies recount stories of apparent slights or snubs. A senior party figure says, “Chuka has put people’s backs up. They feel he is inaccessible.” Another long-serving MP adds, “The idea of learning the trade first is only for mere mortals, not for him.” Peter Mandelson, the former Labour business secretary who played a key role in Blair’s rise through to the top, thinks the explanation for this is quite simple, “Envy plays a big part in politics,” he says.

Like Blair, Chuka sometimes connects better with those beyond his own circle. John Cridland, head of the CBI employers’ group, calls him “a guy with whom we can do business.” Andrew Tyrie, Tory Chair of the Commons Treasury Committee, say: “He’s extremely talented and charming.” Andrew Adonis, a former Labour minister, sums up his cross-party appeal: “The best politicians are those who look outwards not inwards.”

However, allies of the current British PM, David Cameron, scoffed at the idea that Chuka might represent a threat to Cameron’s second term bid.

“I can’t think of any issue where he’s put us under pressure,” says one close friend of the prime minister. “He’s pretty average – he’s a slick corporate lawyer.”

Also, among his fellow party members, Chuka’s lack of political definition is another source of irritation as some claim they struggle to work out what he really believes in. But Chuka says people should show a bit more patience. “It would be rather unhealthy if after just three years in parliament I was setting out some blueprint for my country,” he says. “What do people expect?”

But some see him as the potential leader of a mainstream 21st-Century Labour party with the kind of crossover appeal of Blair’s New Labour. Despite initial reservations that Chuka might be a bit too left-wing, Blair has started seeing him regularly. “Chuka strikes Tony as very smart,” says one close ally of the former PM. “Business is a particularly important brief in tough economic times and Chuka seems to be rising to the challenge.”

As if Blair’s blessing was not enough, Chuka recalls the “honour” of spending “a small bit of private time with former US President, Bill Clinton, who he describes as one of his political heroes. “I think he defies the left-right description,” Mandelson says in approbation. “He’s part of a generation that transcends those labels.”

He has also recently been to Europe to meet his friend, the French PM, Manuel Valls.

According to statistics, almost 15 per cent of people in Britain describe themselves as “non-white” but the country has never had a party leader from an ethnic minority background. Nobody has ever come close. Chuka confesses that until his late teens he had not even thought about a career in politics because there was “nobody who looked like me” running the country.

Chuka has been vocal in the call for a reduction in government spending as well as issues on immigration. “They [the French] have something like 40 ministers compared to our 80,” he says.

On the EU itself, he has called for reform, saying not long ago that free movement of workers was not intended to mean free movement of jobseekers. “As one of the most pro-European shadow ministers, I don’t think you can ignore the impact that free movement has had on some of our communities,” he says, adding that it has changed because there are “many more EU members.”

He adds, “There’s a number of things we need to look at. Those who tend to raise the issue of immigration with me are my African and Asian constituents. They want confidence there are proper controls.

“They want to see people integrate, which is why we shouldn’t be spending all this money translating documents and [instead] directing resources to ensure people learn English. And you do need to look at free movement.”

Next year’s election may not be based on ethnicity but it obviously will be hard not to notice that a British-Nigerian could become the leader of one of the world’s wealthiest countries.

On the issue of ethnicity, Chuka has this to say, “A lot of people presume – because of my ethnicity – that I come from a particular social background. I am very quick to disabuse people of any sense that I’ve wanted and struggled in the way that, say, my father did. I come from a fairly middle-class background. People try and pigeonhole you in a box and I find that frustrating sometimes.”

If Chuka is hard to pigeonhole, that may be linked to his own pedigree. It seems likely, if not certain, that Chuka, whose name means God is the greatest, is destined to become a larger presence in his party and thus a bigger potential target despite being a person whose father came to the UK from Nigeria without a dime.
