Olamide meant it when he said he would only sign a two year contact with his artistes.

The YBNL boss, Olamide Adedeji has kept to his words as he let Lil Kesh leave his label after making him a music star, two years after he signed on to YBNL. Lil Kesh has since announced the floating of his own label named after his debut album ‘YAGI’.

According to sources, Adekunle Gold is next in line as he gets ready to release his first album in June this year. It was further revealed that Adekunle Gold’s debut album will be titled ‘Gold’ which is most likely to be the name of his label when he leaves YBNL.

 It can be vividly recalled that Olamide left ID Cabasa after dropping the YBNL album which became his record label name. Olamide says he wants his artists to also sign other artistes and also help talented young people on the streets.

The closing date for the registration of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) as announced by JAMB, has been extended till 5th February.

We therefore wish to advise all Nairalanders who are yet to purchase their 2016 UTME forms to do so on or before February 5th, 2016.

This also extends to candidates who are still waiting for supplementary or additional list of their choice schools for the 2015/2016 admission year to be released.

It is always a bad idea to have all your eggs in one basket. There is no 100% guarantee that your name will appear on the list even if the school eventually releases it.

To be on a safe side, get the JAMB form before it expires. That way, even if you miss the 2015/2016 admission, you will still stand a chance in the 2016/2017 session.

Also remember the examination is expected to commence February 29th 2016 (all things being equal). You can make the most of the remaining time by using our JAMB CBT tools and materials as well as keep your self updated with any recent information as it concerns 2016 UTME via this link: JAMB 2016 Information Centre - All tools you need!

We also wish to advise those who have been admitted by their respective schools but were not able to find their admission details on JAMB portal, to check again by clicking here as more names have been uploaded and there.

We wish you success!

Many are ignorant of the many dangers of “campus marriage” common among students in Nigeria’s higher institutions. So many a destiny have been cut in their prime due to what has gradually assumed a culture among undergraduates.

In campus parlance, campus marriage is simply an immoral cohabitation involving two individuals of the opposite sex living together usually under the same abode, sharing everything in common. They eat and sometimes study together in classes and even have intimate relationship without being legally pronounced married.

This illicit act had overtimes increased the high rate of immorality particularly on campus among Nigerian students in tertiary institutions which never always lead to legal marriage. It has always ended at right at the school gate.

Apparently, majority of culprits have no tangible reasons for engaging in this immoral act. Although, having interviewed many especially the female students, they said it’s a smart way to deal with the challenge of lack of accommodation. Some have argued that they chose to be close to each other for better intimacy whereas for others, the reasons are clearly bogus.

Interestingly, some categorically said their reason for cohabitation is hinged on meeting selfish emotional needs. For this category of students, cohabitation is a sure-fire way to experience the complete pleasure and excitement of living together.

Irrespective of how far they go in validating their practice, one cannot deny the fact that it portends more harm than good for the couple. Checks have shown that those involved in the act have had to battle with the demands of academics, sometimes resulting in untold failure. Cases of unwanted pregnancies are also rife, further fuelling the lack of concentration common among many students today.

There are even far more menacing dangers. There is the story of a married female student in one of the Nigeria’s higher institutions, who had extra-marital affair with a student. One day, the husband visited unannounced only to catch both love birds in the act. This prompted the husband to stab the lady to death. There are many other gory narratives of this shade.

As seen in the lives of most practitioners, campus marriage affects a student’s academic performance which often leads to eventual withdrawal when such students can no longer meet the standards set by the school. Expectedly, female students are the worst hit due to the possibility of unwanted pregnancy. Cases abound of not only how this has stunted the career growth of many females, but also the associated risk of death when abortion becomes the last resort to save their faces.

Again, this act is considered illegal by law and immoral by both Christians and Muslim faithfuls. Marriage is said to be a legal union between two individuals of opposite sex – a man and a woman – recognised and authenticated by any formal institution, be it the Church, Mosque or law courts.

It is plainly foolhardy to put up with a man who has not paid the bride price, much less solemnise a relationship. Female students who still fall into this ditch deserve to be blamed for the calamity that stands in their way.

However, it is better that students desist from engaging in cohabitation of this manner. It’s a trap that has shattered the dreams and aspirations of many young people. It never guarantees a successful marriage either.

The National Examinations Council (NECO) on Monday said that it was concluding plans to migrate from the Paper-Pencil-Test mode to the Computer Based Test (CBT) mode for its objective examinations.

The registrar of the council, Prof. Abdulrashid Garba, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.

NAN reports that the management of the council had, in 2015, announced plans to adopt the CBT mode for its objective questions.

According to him, migrating into the CBT will make the examination less cumbersome but be cost effective.

“We have almost finalised the procedure on the CBT mode for our objective examinations.

“As soon as we have a governing board in place, the plan will be tabled before it for discussion and approval. How soon this is achieved, depends on the Federal Government.

“We are, equally, working toward a complete migration to the CBT for all our examinations.

“It is not easy to conduct theoretical, practical and oral components of our examinations.

“We are, however, currently talking with some private firms on the possibility of using CBT mode for those other examinations,’’ Garba said.
