The big deal is not abt the dead people after all it was pay back time but the age. How will you appoint an 82yrs old man to head a board? It sounds stupid Mr SGF.

Dear,the issue of $1 to N400 is not from gtbank but US embassy. That is the dollar exchange rate they use.

Op,you're biased in your reportage. Snap a little above what you posted for the world to see.

FortifiedCity:
I have been quietly following the trend and news that have overtaken the cyberspace and airwaves since the president's son Yusuf was involved in a bike accident. He was not hit or anything, he just had an accident and the reason for the accident is yet to be revealed. I thank God nobody caused his accident, at least no family will have in fear of a reprisal attack yet.

The only reason why I feel for Yusuf is because he's a young man like me with his own dreams and aspirations. At least for now, we have not seen how his dream will affect the life of an 'ordinary citizen.

I am not feeling for Yusuf because he's the President's son. His life is worth as much as the lives of those who have died due to his dad's actions and inactions. His life is same with those who terrorists in the form of herdsmen have attacked and maimed and his father did nothing about it.

Yusuf's life is not more precious than the life of a Nigerian youth who genuinely struggles under the sun to make ends meet; a youth who suffers because of the negligence and wickedness of Nigerian politicians.

I wish Yusuf quick recovery but I charge him to live the remainder of his days being an opposite of what his father has not proven not to be; a man who never forgives, a man who bears hatred in his heart, an unproductive man who is capable of multiplying wealth, a man who knows all shades of tribalism, dichotomy, ethnic jingoism and ruthless aggression.

But I can guarantee whoever cares to listen that if Buhari will start to be empathetic to the plights of those in Southern Kaduna, Adamawa, Chibok, and all other places he has deliberately turned a blind eye against, not only will Yusuf heal, but his scars will not be found.

You're judgemental and tribalistic

Hi, good evening people. I'm seriously confused and I need your assistance in unraveling this. Last week Friday, an acquaintance of my mom in the US sent her some stuff through interlinks, the person was asked not to clear them (customs) that she will do that here in Nigeria, sent her the screenshot of the receipt, and also the tracking number. She was even told the flight it was coming on. on Saturday, the person chatted her up and told her to go pick up her stuff from the airport in Lagos. only for the company people to call her and told her they saw money in the bag of which they told her the amount and she confirmed it. Dat was the genesis of the problem o. They were saying that due to the amount of money in the bag, that to clear it will be a problem, they asked her to bring #30000 to help her clear it, she paid on Saturday for them to bring the box only for them to start saying that its not a small matter o that his boss spent #150000 to clear it, till now parcel we've not seen. pls, have we been scammed or what cos we are very confused?

New format. Na scam bro. Gbeja..!

BluntBoy:
My brother, don't let anyone deceive you with hasty picks. Many people here will tell you to pick Computer Science over Computer Education because they feel education courses are inferior. But, bro, your brother is more likely to get a quick job with a degree in Computer Education than he would ever be with a degree in Computer Science.

As a matter of fact, Computer Science is an overrated course. Let him take the FCE admission. If he knows what he is doing, he will get employment either in a good private school or in a Federal or state school.

Nice one.
Leave them till they get a good offer to teach in a Uni before they understand why education is the best. We were brainwashed while growing to see education as inferior. I served im a College of Education,that was where I realised,I made a costly mistake. My dept was short of lecturers in my field,I had to teach but when I was pleading to be retained,then the issue sprung up,you don't have education background. Presently,running my PDE programme to keep that slot.

It's a pity a host of us don't understand the difference between Bsc edu and Bsc. This is not about College of Education at all. There is difference between Tai Solarin University of Education and Tai Solarin College of Education. The former will issue Bsc.Ed cert in some.courses and B.ed in others, while the latter will issue,NCE etc.

Therefore,Bsc.ed means,you have double hons,Bsc in that field and at the same time B.ed in the same courses so,its your choice to be a professional in your field likewise be a professional teacher/lecturer in that field. Most of us are very good in our field but we can't teach because we lack education background hence,PDE or PGDE taken by Bsc holders. In the same vein,a Bsc ed holder can go for Masters or PHd in the field or education field whichever the person decides.

Op,to be sincere with you,Bsc edu is the best for any young lad now. If you don't secure a job in your field,you can teach as well. Single hons is not enough in the present Nigeria and TRCN is a body recognised home and abroad. Most of the Colleges of Education that offer Bsc edu are affliated to a University. Adeyemi College of Education is affliated to OAU meaning you're a graduate of OAU same with Federal College of Education,Osiele,Abeokuta affliated to UI. Both institutions can become a University of education by the FG anytime.

Op,don't fret. Education is the way. Forget abt the place you bagged the cert but try as much as possible to upgrade yourself. Skills with cert will take you places..

Can't we just go our seperate ways? Living in Nigeria has become something else,haba..who we offend sef?

No light
No rail
No good roads
No job
Poor education
No good hospital
No fuel
No Salary
Bad leadership

Oluwa,nibo ni oyi e wa(God, where thou your eyes)? Or is our land cursed. The country get worse every year.

Rudian1:
Hi everyone, I'm so glad I found this link. I have a second class upper degree in English Education, a masters in counselling psychology in Education and I'm runing a PhD in counselling psychology in education. I'm seriously seeking a position as a lecturer.

Awesome profile you have there,but its a pity most of the openings in our tertiary institutions are rarely advertised and if advertised,they already have slots.

However, there are vacancies virtually in all the new approved Universities,you just need to take the bull by the horn.you just have start looking for the links available. Also by going undercover in any the govt owned institutions to understand how you can get a place or you check all these affliated campuses to drop your CV.

All the best bro..!

If I may ask,where are you doing your PhD?

Shygal:
Yea i think its some marketing stuff and they wanted to see the most charming, amiable and attractive ladies fit for the job... else why were only we the ladies interviewed and the guys weren't?...by the way the interview was nothing serious, it was more like let's see how u look and speak...

Hence the photograph.. hmm

A slap on wowo babes.

I think women stay at the back. ?

OtreasureD:
Please is OAU masters form out?

Yes.

You're beautiful

He loves you

He's scared of loosing you (Insecurity)

Had experience of bad boys.

Girl,let him know the few guys you're keeping and few reasons like,course mate,old time friend etc. If you're really interested in having a happy home with him,learn to listen to your "husband". It is your home,don't break it with 21st century mentality.

Tell him everything you think will not affect your relationship and always tell him the truth. TRUTH will be your saviour if anything happens.

kingchukwudi:
Good evening everyone
I tried applying online via their site www.au.edu.ng but is not going through.
Pls any info about the aforementioned

The site ain't going for now. I think the best option available is to send the documents to them via courier and also via email.

Ocheinstein:
You can't get a job in physics department of any university with a Bsc Ed. You are however qualified for lecturing in education physics only. I still think it's more stress than one bargains for

I bet to disagree. Both of them can lecture,they have education background. They both did teaching practise and are members of TRCN so,no discrimination.

The problem they have is this,B.ed can only do.Masters in Education field while Bsc.ed can do Masters in both the field he/she specialise and also in education. You can ask that your friend again,there is something he's not telling you.

You can proof me wrong with facts and not hearsay bro.!

Oga,there is something disturbing the woman that she's not saying. A very deep secret I think. She needs a counsellor or a confidant or you be the counsellor and confidant by apologising for yelling,let her see the sincerity in you,ask her to tell you to truth about the money and anything disturbing her that you're ready to forgive and make amends for any wrong deeds she might have done in the past and you will not use it against her now or in the future.

Be sincere with this,pls. She will tell you what you need to know and be a man when you hear some stuffs that seems bad. All you need from her is the truth and nothing but the truth.

Depression leads to sucide and it does not start in a day. Its a way to free the mind of troubles we think its hard to solve. To avoid story that touch in the nearest future,make her your best friend. You talk about anything and everything.

Anyone applied for Abeokuta and Ibadan has test centre got invitee?

opy002:
I wish to know too

You can submit by hand. A friend just assisted in submitting mine.

All the best

Abiola4eva:
Can i apply for lecturing job with my b.tech (2nd class upper) but no pde or pgde.

You can, but others with Pde or Pgde will have an edge over you.

Rolex67:
Not yet dear, will be graduating next year, am just planning my career.

Awesome. During your service year, you can apply for your Masters while searching for a lecturing job. It is an added advantage. All the best dearie.

Rolex67:
Yes I am.

Thanks for the info, I have a passion for lecturing job.

Do you intend applying for this?

Rolex67:
Does that mean that as I have a bsc.ed double honor certificate, I won't need to do PGDE and I can get a graduate assistant work then enroll for masters and become a full lecturer?

onlyme07

Yes,if you're second class upper. You're a trained teacher and member of TRCN bu virtue of your education background.
That is what I advice young lads to do now,it pays..!

The mother is talking from experience.,bad experience I suppose. The guy must have heard the woman complain about Anambra ladies, hence her stand.

Let the guy sit her mother down,deduce the reason behind her stand and convince her,not all ladies from that side are bad, examples he might have researched upon can be used to make her have a second thought.

It can happen to anyone,imagine you had a bad experience with folks from a region,to you,they are all bad because of that sole attitude. An Egba man will say,never, my son cannot marry an Ijebu woman vice versa. Why? One party sees the other has fetish while the other sees their women has promiscious so,it takes two to tangle.

In essence,heart to heart talk will resolve the issue.

kingchukwudi:
U can't apply online except by hard copies just I don't knw if it can be feasible.

Rudian1:

How do you intend applying?

olawalepopoola:
My brother/sister.
Why do you need 2 M.Scs. 1 is OK for you. Choose one of these universities and study.
I wish the very best.

The problem is my Bsc is broad so,if lecturing job does not come forth,diversifying will be best.
