SSCE started in the nineties.

Buhari was born in 1942, there was no SSCE during his time, even WAEC was probably not started then.

Did u just say SSCE started in the 90s?did u know that WAEC had been in existence even before we got independence?

To all thoe still in doubt about GMB's educational achievements.He attended the US Army War College Carlisle in Pennsylvania from 1979 -1980 and earned his command as
a Brigadier General. The respected General Collin Powel attended the same school in 1976 to become Brigadier General. Some of Buhari’s classmates include General. Beltson, General Thomas P Carney, General Bill Matz, General David E.K. Cooper etc. all of them are alive and can be reached and they will give glowing tributes of the man,Buhari, they know as their classmate.The curriculum at the U.S. Army War College earns one a Masters Degree in Strategic Studies and that is what Buhari
has.

or dt u have been on honeymoon since cos d disappearance started shortly after you got married.

Anyway, i noticed that your earthen ponds have water in and out. how often do u change water in an earthen pond? Can one use borehole as source of water for earthen pond?

My friend is moving into his house. It is a very big plot and he intends to start his fish pond latest by feb. How wil he solve the challenge of drainage for the pond? The land is sloped inward- to the inside. The area has no drainage constructed and cos of the sloppy terain, he is scared dt water may spoilt ppl's property if he sends it outside.

Kindly assist with solution.

Borehole can be used as a source of water.I hardly change water since its a flow through system,where water comes in an goes out steady.As for your friend,she can have the pond at home but to drain when necessary will be a big environmental problem,because she would have to drain at one point or the other cos of treatment,sorting etc.

13. YEH VAADA RAHA.(THE PROMISE, 1982).

Vikram Rai Bahadur is the only son of Mrs. Sharda, and sole heir to a vast business and estate. While vacationing with his artiste friend, Raja in Kashmir he meets a poor beautiful girl named Sunita and falls head over heels in love with her.
Vikram goes back to Delhi, to ask his mother's permission and blessings to marry Sunita, but she refuses telling VIcky about Sunita's parents and past. Also saying that if her name is joined to theirs, their business will suffer as Sunita's presence is inauspicious. His mother's words anger Vikram and he goes back to Kashmir and tells Sunita they will have a quiet temple wedding. On their way to the temple their vehicle meets with an accident against a truck. While Raja sustains minor injuries, Vikram is badly hurt and hospitalized, and Sunita's face is severely disfigured. Mrs. Sharda goes to see Sunita and offers her money to stay away from Vikram. She tells Sunita about her disfigurement and emotionally blackmails her by saying "think how Vikram would live with an ugly and disfigured girl like her. Hearing this Sunita agrees to stay away from Vikram but says she doesn't want Sharda's money. Sunita is transferred to a hospital in Delhi, where Sunita's local doctor, Dr. Sahni together with a doctor in the Delhi hospital, Dr. Mehra restore her disfigurement by plastic surgery. On the day that she leaves, Vikram regains consciousness and asks for Sunita, But his mother tells him that Sunita is dead.Months pass and Vikram longs for Sunita, not eating properly, not living his life, not looking after himself. Meanwhile in these months Dr Mehra is doing his job beautifully, he fixes Sunita's disfigured face and gives her a new face. She quickly recovers, and cannot wait to give the good news to Vikram, but Vikram is unable to recognise Sunita and she believes that he has forgotten her. She returned returned home and changed her name to Kusum.
Vikram and Kusam later came together and sang together, hearing her voice reminds Vikram of Sunita's voice and he continuously re-listens to her voice's recordings in order to figure out whether it is Sunita's or not. But Vikram and his Mother noticed Sunita's presence in Kusum. Dr. Mehra calls Sharda(Vikram's Mother) to his hospital and explains to her how he had given Sunita a new face after her disfigurement. He tells her how Sunita is Kusum and Kusum is Sunita and how Kusum.

One of the best

I am 32yrs old,I watched this movie back in 86 or 87 on our Panasonic VHS player.I. always weep whenever I watch the movie,most especially the part where the son was crying,trying to wake the dad up.The Champ remains the only movie that ever made me weep.

A boy from Coventry has become the youngest computer specialist in the world.
Ayan Qureshi is now a Microsoft Certified Professional after passing the tech giant's exam when he was just five years old.
Ayan, now six, whose father is an IT consultant, has set up his own computer network at home.
He told the BBC he found the exam difficult but enjoyable, and hopes to set up a UK-based tech hub one day.
"There were multiple choice questions, drag and drop questions, hotspot questions and scenario-based questions," he told the BBC Asian Network.
"The hardest challenge was explaining the language of the test to a five-year-old. But he seemed to pick it up and has a very good memory," explained Ayan's father Asim.
Mr Qureshi introduced his son to computers when he was three years old. He let him play with his old computers, so he could understand hard drives and motherboards.
"I found whatever I was telling him, the next day he'd remember everything I said, so I started to feed him more information," he explained.
"Too much computing at this age can cause a negative effect, but in Ayan's case he has cached this opportunity."
Ayan has his own computer lab at his home in Coventry, containing a computer network which he built.
He spends around two hours a day learning about the operating system and how to install programmes.
When the boy arrived to take the Microsoft exam, the invigilators were concerned that he was too young to be a candidate.
His father reassured them that Ayan would be all right on his own.
The test is usually taken by people who want to become IT technicians.

The exam invigilators thought Ayan Qureshi was too young to be a candidate
Ayan's mother Mamoona is training to be a GP.
The family moved to England from Pakistan in 2009.
"I'm very happy and very proud, I don't want to see him set a world record every day. But I want him to do his best whatever he does in his life," she said.
Ayan says he hopes to launch a UK-based IT hub similar to America's Silicon Valley one day, which he intends to call E-Valley.
He also wants to start his own company.

The fertile landscape in Chak 59 of Kasur district in the Punjab province is dotted with hundreds of brick kilns.
The factories, owned by powerful landlords, are notorious for thriving on "bonded labour". Hundreds of thousands of people have remained locked in a cycle of debt and poverty for decades.
Rights groups call it a form of modern-day slavery.
Until last week, Sajjad Mesih and his wife Shama, a married Christian couple in their 30s, worked at one such brick kiln.
For years, they got up at dawn, laboured in harsh conditions through the day and finished up at dusk. That was their routine - every day, seven days a week. It was a life of debt and poverty that they hated.
On Tuesday, they were lynched and burnt to death there by a mob on allegations of blasphemy.
Flowers are left at the site of the couple's lynching
Blasphemy is an explosive issue in Pakistan. Reporting of violence in the name of blasphemy is often self-censored, twisted and confused by misreporting.
Piecing together the sequence of events and what led to vicious crimes on the pretext of blasphemy is not always straightforward.
But having visited the remote rural area and after speaking to up to a dozen or so people - including police, family, neighbours and eyewitnesses - here is an account of what the BBC has been able to put together.
Running for their lives
It all appears to have started about a week ago when the couple first heard about someone claiming to have discovered burnt pages of the Koran near their mud brick house.
Some extremist villagers were said to be furious and planning to take some kind of an action against the family.Shama's sister Yasmeen knew more about the whispering campaign. Having converted to Islam along with her husband and children four years ago, she had good links inside the Muslim community.
It was through Yasmeen that the couple was sent an ultimatum by angry villagers, says Shahbaz Masih, a close relative of the couple.
They were told to convert to Islam to repent against their alleged sin or face the consequences for committing blasphemy.
Shama and her husband Sajjad knew then that their lives were in serious danger.
They had no intention of converting under duress. The only thing to do was to run for their lives.
On Monday, the couple informed the factory bosses that they feared for their lives and desperately needed to leave.
"Not without settling the debt you owe us," the couple was told by furious owners.
They were then locked up in a room, in case they tried to escape without clearing their dues.
There are suggestions that the amount of loan money they owed was $600 (£380); others say it was about $1,500 (£948).
The next morning, before dawn, a group of extremist villagers went around the area to call on members of the public "to come out for the defence of their great religion".
Clerics from local mosques used loud speakers to incite violence. Soon, hundreds of angry people converged on the brick kiln looking for the Christian couple.
"They had blood in their eyes," says a young Christian man who watched the lynching from a safe distance. "I was scared. No one could do anything to stop them."
A few policemen from the nearby check post soon arrived and tried to intervene. But they were outnumbered and beaten up by the mob and told to stay out of it.
The crowd then dragged the pair out of the room, where they were held by the factory owner. They were attacked with bricks and shovels and later laid on the brick oven to be burnt alive.
Three lives lost
At the time of the murder Shama was expecting her fifth child, says her family.
Three lives were lost in the gruesome murders.
The Christian community in the area is horrified by the public lynching.
In the nearby Christian-majority town of Clarkabad, there is anger at the state's failure to protect its vulnerable and at risk communities.
"It could happen to anybody. Everyone here feels fearful," says Suleman Masih, a brick kiln worker.
For its part, the government has appeared to move swiftly to try to reassure the beleaguered community. Scores have been arrested under the country's tough anti-terror laws and the hunt is on for the remaining suspects.
But given the culture of impunity around violence against minorities, many here are not convinced.
"We want justice and until the culprits are held to account, Christians in Pakistan will not feel safe," says pastor Azmat Nadeem of the Church of Pakistan.
Pakistan is a long way from changing or repealing its notorious blasphemy laws.
At best, the only thing the country's vulnerable and at risk communities can really hope for now is that the authorities will treat this case seriously and possibly deter similar gruesome crimes from happening again.

The Good thing about the hospital is that the Doctors are one of the bests in Nigeria.

I was opportuned to visit the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching hospital shagamu Ogun state,o check on my mum who was about to have a Mastectomy surgery.What I saw was beyond pathetic.

I must say OOUTH is an eyesore. I would never pray my enemy visits that place. If not for the fact that the procedure can't be performed in my mum's hospital (NNPC Medical centre Mosimi shagamu). I wouldn't allow her stay a single night there. Stinking and extremely dirty.

The Nurses are very mean and unfriendly,u get to pay for everything from using of toilet and bathing. Power is never available, to use the generator the patients have to contribute money for fueling. You can queue upto 6 hours just to see a doctor.

Mosquito nets are either torn or non-existent. Over grown weeds have taken over the hospital, each block is run by a Petrol generator. Patients on admission have to beg the nurses before they can attend to them. The roofs are falling, the risks of infection is very high here.

The commissioner for health in Ogun state is the son of Wole Soyinka, I'm wondering what the governor does with the state's funds. Despite boasting of record revenue in the history of the state.

Can't imagine a whole Teaching Hospital can be this pathetic, infact I'm so embarrassed to be from Ogun state. Something has to be done, at night its flash lights galore, all the workers at the hospital owns a flash light because never expect power at night.

OOUTH is a glorified General Hospital, infact some general hospitals in Osun and Ondo state are far far better than OOUTH.

Zambian Vice-President Guy Scott has been named acting leader following the death of President Michael Sata.
Presidential elections to choose a permanent successor will be held within 90 days, Defence Minister Edgar Lungu said.
Mr Scott, who is of Scottish descent, becomes Africa's first white head of state for many years.
Mr Sata died in the UK aged 77 after receiving treatment for an undisclosed illness.
Mr Scott regularly stood in for the president at official events, but was never appointed acting president when Mr Sata was abroad - so this is his first time to officially lead the country.
Guy Scott;
Often disparagingly referred to as the "ceremonial vice-president"
He was born in 1944 in what was then Northern Rhodesia after father emigrated from Glasgow to work as a doctor on the railways
A Cambridge-trained economist, he entered politics in 1990 joining the MMD which won the first multiparty elections the next year
As agricultural minister he oversaw the recovery from a devastating drought in 1992/93
He joined Michael Sata's Patriotic Front (PF) in 2001
Appointed vice-president in September 2011 after the PF's election victory
As his parents were not born in Zambia, a constitutional clause requiring the president to be a "third generation" Zambian may nullify any attempt to run for president
Guy Scott's rise to Zambia's presidency
In a brief televised address Mr Scott confirmed his appointment.
"The period of national mourning will start today. We will miss our beloved president and comrade," Reuters news agency quotes him as saying.

A Nigerian IT worker is being sought by police for his alleged role in co-ordinating a £25m ($40m) cyber-theft at a bank in Abuja where he worked.

Godswill Oyegwa Uyoyou is being sought by Nigeria's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

A wanted notice claims he helped conspirators dressed as maintenance staff get into the bank so they could use computers to transfer cash.

Local reports suggest the theft was spotted when stolen cash was withdrawn.

Although no members of the gang have been caught, several are being "tracked", Wilson Uwujaren, a spokesman for the EFCC, told News Nigeria.

Details of the robbery are scant but it is thought that Mr Uyoyou and conspirators entered the bank on a Saturday when it was closed and no other staff were working.

The IT staffer was key to the robbery, said the EFCC, because of the access he enjoyed to the computer systems at the bank. This was used to siphon 6.28bn Nigerian Naira into accounts of the conspirators, said the EFCC. So far, the bank at the centre of the theft has not been named.

The EFCC has issued a warrant for Mr Uyoyou's arrest and he is being actively sought in Nigeria.

John Hawes, a computer security researcher at Sophos, said the amount of cash stolen was "unusually large" but the method the gang chose was "all too common".

"Insider risk is a major problem for banks," he wrote on the firm's security blog, "they still have to rely on trusted employees to behave themselves, resist temptation and keep their hands off the huge amounts of funds they may find themselves dealing with every day."

mozek24: Hello guys,

First am happy Chelsea won Swansea City.

Now back to biz: I intend to buy a car for hawking my fresh and smoked fish not more than 50 to 100kg at once. Which kind of car would you recommend? I am thinking of a small car like Rio or Picanto.

What do you think will be ideal.

Bros don't try it o!i once tried it in 2009,it was a total disaster,those Fishwomen would offer you ridiculous prices believing you've run into problems and need to sell off your fishes fast.Its better you go to the market and sit down with the women and sell to consumers directly,or you supply hotels and joints directly.

As good as new
