They will surely go the way they came

Eriokanmi:
You're wrong sir. There's IJMB O'Level and IJMB A'Level. Get your facts right. You're the one misinforming others. I wrote ijmb just so you know. With the A'Level, you gain admission into 2 hundred level directly. While the ijmb o'level is a substitute for waec which you could use to gain admission into hundred level and thats the difference. It's acceptable nationwide and more difficult to pass than the almighty waec. Because of competition nowadays, 4 credit passes aren't valid for entry into any university today. How many university graduate did we have in the 70s. My dad used to say they could be 50 in the whole universiry who would graduate in a particular year back then Nowadays, even if you had 5 credit passes but failed the post UME, no way for you. Even if you passed both the post UME and UME, the school would still use other criteria like the number of students who scored A's in some key subjects to to be considered first for admission if the number of those who met cut off point surpassed those needed for a particular course. Ife does that nowadays. My cousin was admitted with direct entry and 4 credit passes waec result in FUT Minna with lower credit from poly to study physics in 2010. The futminna requirement was clearly indicated on their DE brochure too and I saw it. If you don't inderstand something, ask questions instead of condemning what someone else has said as misinforming. This is so common in Nigeria. It won't cost you anything if you ask.

Should I believe you more than what IJMB themselves said on their website? It's clearly written there that they conduct A'Level programmes majorly in 18 subjects. The only O'Level exams they do is English Language and Mathematics, and that is meant to remedy those that have deficiencies in either or both of those subjects (English and Maths) in WAEC. Will passing only those 2 subjects in IJMB be sufficient for you to satisfy O'Level requirements for admission which is a minimum of 5 credit passes in O'Level? Definitely no. So as I said IJMB is never a substitute for WAEC. See attached from IJMB website.

this must have been an updated information which wasn't there in my time. There was and still is IJMB O'Level as well which you probably didn't know ever existed from your previous comment as you harped only on the A'level wing of ijmb which was my point of the stressed argument. I sat for IJMB O'L at Kwarapoly in year 2000, which I used to enter university of Ilorin the following year. I'm not aware of the latest development as indicated on their website. Like I said earlier, what's obtainable in the olden days as requirements for admission isn't there anymore due to high number of intakes in the Nigerian universities. I didn't present my waec o'Level result for admission but I wrote jamb as it was clearly stated that time on UME brochure that IJMB O'L was acceptable to them as entry requirements. I don't know what it's called now cos I learnt the name given to the brochure has changed. Then it was DE/UME. Tomorrow, the NUC or ministry of education could increase entry requirements to 6 subjects at a sitting, who knows. There was a time universities would accept 2 combined waec o'l results or combination of one waec with one IJMB o'l result to complete the 5 required subject passes for admission, based on each university's requirements on the DE/UME Brochure, which they don't do anymore. A few years later, the number of credit passes was increased to 6, for those combining results not more than 2 sittings, you see. Things change with time and relevamt bodies update their information to the general public in this regard. As as the time I wrote my ijmb o level, I doubt if there was any website sef.

Let's disagree to agree. I didn't know that IJMB had O'Level before now but you made me research on that and updated my knowledge. You also didn't know IJMB has discontinued O'Level for all subjects except English and Maths, but you know that now. We've both learnt something which is a good thing. Well done to you and have a lovely day. One love.

Tomorrow awaits. Do you even know what is acsdemic

It has come and gone. Even a 200L law student won't waste his/her time to argue the above case. Blind support shouldn't make you to make a mess of law.

Appeal court we go

The Bayelsa State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal on Saturday dismissed another petition filed against the declaration of Douye Diri as governor of Bayelsa State.

The tribunal dismissed the petition filed by Vijay Opuama of the Liberation Movement and held that the petition lacked merit.

The tribunal in the judgment read by its chairman, Justice Muhammad Sirajo, held that there is no inconsistency in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) exemption certificate of the fourth respondent, Senator Lawrence Ewhrudjapko and his university degree certificate.

It held that the petitioner failed to prove the allegation of certificate forgery against Ewhhrudjakpo, nothing that the petitioner failed to call the person whose certificate he alleged the fourth respondent presented.

It also held that both the governor and his deputy, Ewhrudjakpo were qualified to contest the November 16, 2019 governorship election in the state, adding that contrary to claim of the petitioner, they did not have to resign their position as senators before contesting for the election.

The tribunal further held that both the governor and the deputy governor scored the majority of valid votes in the election.

“The petition is dismissed for lacking in merit,” Justice Sirajo declared.

Tribune Online reports that the tribunal earlier dismissed two petitions against Governor Diri’s election as the state governor.

Dansuqi:
Why are you so two faced and full of double standard? Your hatred for apc is highly ridiculous

the tribunal has answered you.
