Are these really the school fees of these Universities? shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked




No wonder Nigerian Universities are shiit! shocked shocked shocked

A miserly 45,000 Naira for a University Education? I know Daycares that charge more than 10 times that amount.




I'm sorry but this shiit has got to stop. The Government cant keep playing this type of useless politics with our lives. Quality Education can not be achieved with this type of poor income into the Universities coupled with the poor funding from the Government. Hstory has shown us that everything the Government of Nigeria has touched always fails. Its time the Nigerian Universities become autonomous.

Universities should be allowed to fund themselves and set their fee rate.

All the Nigerian Government should do is set up a merit based scholarship system for qualified students.

No wonder many of them come out of the university as advanced illiterates.



Crucify me, but i remember a saying; If you think education is expensive,try ignorance.

PoliticsDonald Trump's German Roots by tociano009(op): 2:57pm On Feb 01, 2016
The ancestors of the "anti-immigrant" crusader Donald Trump come from a small village in western Germany. The documentary film "Kings of Kallstadt" explores the modest roots of the family's real estate empire.

Construction work is currently blocking the road for cars. You have to walk the last stretch to reach the Trump house located at Freinsheimer Strasse 20 in Kallstadt, a small, wine-producing village in the south-western part of Germany, in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The house at this address is a modest one, with a pale façade and tiny windows. This is the residence where Donald Trump's grandfather lived before he emigrated from Germany to the US and made his legendary fortune.
This little house and the Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City are worlds apart, but they briefly collide in the documentary film "Kings of Kallstadt," directed by Simone Wendel.

Kallstadt is known for producing wine
Frederick Trump immigrated to the US in 1885
The filmmaker, also born in Kallstadt, meets Donald Trump in his New York office and shows him a picture of his ancestor's house. "Beautiful," he says, which sounds a bit exaggerated, considering how modest the building is.
The film director remembers that Trump was a bit reserved at the beginning of their conversation, but he warmed up as they further discussed his grandfather - a topic he didn't get to talk about very often.

The former house of the Trump family in Kallstadt
Trump's grandfather, Frederick Trump, left Kallstadt for the United States in 1885. From New York he headed off to Yukon, in north-western Canada, following the Klondike Gold Rush.
Today, Frederick Trump would probably be defined as an economic refugee - and his grandson Donald does not hesitate to use a belligerent tone against this category of people in his presidential election campaign.
This attitude doesn't make him very popular in Kallstadt. Just ask around in the village's meeting places, for example at the counter of the butcher Appel, where a big poster advertises "Pig's Stomach Paradise." Trump's polemical statements against refugees are "impossible; after all, his father was one too," says Edelhard Kellermann.
The villagers used to have a better opinion of Donald Trump, before he started his boisterous campaign, as the interviews Simone Wendel led with German relatives of the Trump family a few years ago for her film "Kings of Kallstadt" reveal.
Donald Trump seems to have inherited at least one typical characteristic attributed to the people of Kallstadt: In the region, they are nicknamed the "Brulljesmacher," regional dialect for "bragger."
A real estate empire built on gold
Donald's grandfather didn't go digging for gold himself. One of his relatives explains in the film that he was too weak for that type of work. He rather opened a restaurant for the miners and they paid him with their gold. Frederick Trump sent the gold nuggets to New York to his wife, Elisabeth.
She bought land with the gold, and that would serve as the foundation of the Trumps' real estate empire.

Trumps buried in Kallstadt's cemetery
Trump is not the only millionaire with roots in Kallstadt. The family of the founder of the ketchup dynasty Heinz also came from the same village.
In her film, Wendel asks why these two exceptionally successful businessmen came from Kallstadt and creates a wonderfully bizarre portrait of her home town.
Since the film's release in 2014, Kallstadt has become famous. Journalists keep showing up at the doors of Donald Trump's German relatives. A TV crew from Japan was also at the "Pig's stomach paradise." Trump also promised in the film that whenever he would go to Germany, he would also drop by Kallstadt and visit the house where his grandfather once lived.

Foreign AffairsOutrage In Ghana Over Guantanamo Detainees by tociano009(op): 8:37pm On Jan 07, 2016
Two Yemeni prisoners held at the US base in Cuba have been released and sent to the West African nation for resettlement. Ghanaians fear a security risk despite government reassurances.
Mahmud Umar Muhammad Bin Atef and Khalid Muhammad Salih Al-Dhuby, both Yemeni nationals, were released from Guantanamo Bay on Wednesday and will be resettled in Ghana. They will initially be allowed to stay for two years, subject to security checks, the Ghanaian government has said. The move is part of US President Barack Obama's drive to close the detention center by the end of his term in office.
Both have been held for more than a decade without charge. The Pentagon said that Al-Dhuby was cleared for release in 2006 and Bin Atef since 2009. They have been approved for transfer since the beginning of 2010, according to government files posted online by the New York Times. The US would not return them to their native Yemen due to civil war in the country and had to find another country to accept them. Navy Commander Gary Ross, a Pentagon spokesman, thanked the Ghanaian government for its “humanitarian gesture” in accepting the prisoners.
US reliant on other countries
This is the first time Ghana has accepted Guantanamo prisoners, although other African countries, such as Uganda and Cap Verde, have received transfers from the facility in the past.
The US started housing terrorist suspects at Guantanamo Bay shortly after the attacks on the country on September 11, 2001. Obama's 2009 promise to close the facility has been blocked by Congress, which has objected to any transfers to the US, whether for trial or release.
But human rights group Amnesty International says the US should not be relying on outside assistance in its move to close Guantanamo. "The US administration is expecting of other countries what it itself refuses to do, despite being the authority, the country, which created this problem in the first place," Rob Freer of Amnesty International told DW. 105 prisoners are still being held at Guantanamo Bay, including nearly 50 who have been cleared for release. "The USA is responsible for this and has not done what it could to end this human rights injustice," Freer said.
Former extremists ‘low risk'
After the US requested the transfers a year ago, Ghana sent its US ambassador to the Guantanamo Bay facility to interview the detainees and assess the risk they could pose to the country, Ghana's Communications Minister Edward Boamah told Reuters.
US government documents identify al-Dhuby as a "probable member" of al-Qaeda who had travelled to Aghanistan to fight. Bin Atef, an “admitted member” of the Taliban, was also in Afghanistan when he was captured, the documents said. The two men are part of a group of 17 ‘low-risk' detainees whose transfer was approved by US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter in December.
The Ghanaian government has sought to allay concern among the public about a potential security threat. But West African analyst Emmanuel Bensah, was sceptical about its decision to accept the detainees. “I am not quite sure why the government is doing this, especially at a time when we have elections, when we have security issues at the fore," he told DW.
Ghanaians outraged
On the streets of Ghana's capital Accra, many were outragaed by their government's decision to accept the detainees. "Guantanamo Bay is a maximum security center so somebody who has been kept there, having links to terrorists groups, whether confirmed or otherwise, and coming to Ghana, I think it is a major concern," local resident Tony Okine told DW.
Fellow Accra resident Osei Amankwah agreed. "I am scared because it is dangerous, because we don't know what they are coming here to do," she said. "we shouldn't have accepted them. We have our own troubles."
But others disagreed. "I think we should accept them because we also go for aid from other countries so if they need help from Ghana we can also help them." Asabea Siaw told DW.
More detainees to come the Yemenis, two Rwandans who were tried by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda for crimes relating to the 1994 Rwandan would be allowed to settle in the country. They are part of a group of people who had been either acquitted, or sentenced imprisoned, but didn't want to be resettled in Rwanda, according to Ghana's foreign ministry.
Ghana, a stable democracy which prides itself on its humanitarian values, said that it would also be taking in some Syrian refugees with relatives in Ghana, but did not specify how many. It said that all those allowed into the country would be monitored.
Ghana is a predominantly Christian nation, but around a fifth of the population are Muslims, and Islam is particularly strong in the north of the country...
