femslove: In an effort to improve the quality of Nigerian film productions, the country’s president, Goodluck Jonathan, pledged in 2010 to create a $200 million loan fund to help finance film projects.
I PLEDGE to Nigeria my country, to be faithful loyal and honest! This is a norm in every school's assembly. How many nigerian students' actualise the pledge after leaving the assembly ground where the pledge was recited?
Seems you've forgotten that GEJ that made the pledge is also a nigerian. So far he made the pledge doesn't mean he actualised the pledge.
The first question you should have asked is if the money was disbursed to the industry before making a further step to criticize their developement!
I rest my case!

when one is in rome, he acts as a roman.
Before the admission of every student into their various schools, there is always an oath signed on the matriculation which means he agrees and will strictly adhere to the school rules and regulations.
What hearing does he want the school to offer to him than to say he was ignorant to the rule or ignorant of how the porn and secular music got to his computer system.
He should have gone to leeds city or other private schools where there are more freedom if he doesn't feel like being in a public school.
Every offence has its punishment which was dispensed to the guy base on his offence.
Education › Covenant Varsity: Courtadjourns Suit Of Studentexpelled Over Porn by Tolexander(op): 1:40pm On Feb 28, 2013
LAGOS—Justice Mobolaji Ojo
of Ogun State High Court
sitting in Otta has fixed
March 27, 2013 for
Judgement in the suit filed by
Vwamhi Longji Felix,
challenging his illegal
expulsion by the Covenant
University, for allegedly
watching pornography and
secular music on his laptop.
At the resumed hearing of
the matter yesterday, the
prosecuting counsel Segun
Fatoki, told the court that
Felix was allegedly expelled
without an opportunity of a
proper hearing or viewing
the evidence in accordance
with standard practice as
guaranteed by the
constitution of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria 1999, as
amended.
In his originating summon
brought in pursuant to order
3 rules 5,6 and 8 of the Ogun
State High Court civil
procedure rules 2008,he
asked the court to declare
that invasion of the claimant
room by the set of people
claimed to be acting on
behalf of the Dean, Student
Affairs was a violation of
Section 44 of Chapter 4 of
the student Handbook of the
Covenant University, the
Constitution of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria 1999 as
amended, the African Charter
on Human and Peoples
Rights as ratified.
According to him, section 35
and 36 of the constitution of
the Federal Republic of
Nigeria 1999 as amended,
the court or administrative
panel or tribunal, public or
private, the rights and
obligations of a Nigerian
Citizen ought to derogate
from the Nigerian
constitution.
He said in determining the
fate of a student of the
university by either the Dean
Student affairs or the
student’s disciplinary
committee, the provision, as
expressed or implied by the
students handbook
2010/2014 ought not be
strictly followed.
Felix, in his 24 paragraphs
affidavit to support his claim,
stated that before he was
expelled his parents had
spent not less than N10
million on his school fees
and other expenses.
The school in its counter
affidavit stated that in the
school hand book it was
stated that students are not
allowed to be in possession
of unholy films and home
video or secular music tapes,
either stored or directly in
the computer or listen
through the use of computer
radio or any other electronic
device when on campus
during an academic session.
Also, the school claimed that
it is an offence that will
attract punishment of
expulsion for any student
who indulges himself or
herself in public display of or
be in possession of
pornographic films or
photographs, exploring or
viewing pornographic
websites on the internet.
The other respondents in the
suit are the Vice Chancellor
Covenant University, The
Chancellor and Chairman,
Executive Council, Covenant
University.
Justice Ojo after listening to
the parties, said they should
allow every individual to
grow the life that they need
to live, if at age 15 to 17, if
they don’t live that life, they
would live it when they are
30 to 35 because of too
much rules.
”Children as adolescents
must live as adolescents and
as a youth, people must
grow and we must allow
them.”
However the Judge
adjourned Judgment till
March 27, 2013.

Politics › ‘nigeria’s Economy Isstrong’, FG Replies Clinton by Tolexander(op): 1:14pm On Feb 28, 2013
Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala, has replied
critics of the Nigerian
economy, saying the
economy is buoyant and
strong.
Okonjo-Iweala, in a message
put on social media,
yesterday, dismissed reports
of the poor performance of
the economy and the
management of the excess
crude revenue.
Her statement came few days
after former American
President, Bill Clinton,
indicted the Federal
Government for not using
the huge revenue realised
from crude oil exports to
positively impact on the lives
of Nigerians.
Mr. Clinton had, weekend,
expressed disappointment
that his inclusion of Nigeria a
few years ago among 10
countries that were well
positioned to emerge as the
world’s greatest economies
has been proved wrong with
the visible lack of progress in
recent times, despite the
huge resources at its
disposal.
Okonjo-Iweala, however,
argued that such views were
misleading as the economy
was healthy, with other
indices, including inflation
and foreign reserves,
showing positive levels of
performances.
In the statement entitled
Federal Ministry of Finance
Clarifications on the State of
the Economy, the Excess
Crude Account and Related
Issues, signed by Okonjo-
Iweala and pasted on
Facebook and Twitter, the
Finance Minister said: “It is
essential that Nigerians
understand the exact
position of the economy and
the integrity of these
important government
accounts.
“This note aims to provide
some facts for Nigerians on
these issues, to clarify the
exact position, and finally to
put these concerns to rest.”
Apart from Mr. Clinton, some
former public officials,
including a Minister of
Education under former
President Olusegun
Obasanjo, Oby Ezekwesili,
have criticised Nigeria’s
management of the Excess
Crude Account.
Ezekwesili alleging that the
administration of President
Goodluck Jonathan and that
of his late predecessor,
Umaru Yar’Adua,
mismanaged the funds left in
the account by the Olusegun
Obasanjo administration.
While not mentioning Mr.
Clinton or Ezekwesili’s names,
Okonjo-Iweala said her
statement was borne out of
“a number of comment” that
had appeared in the Nigerian
media.
She wrote: “In recent times,
a number of comments and
articles have appeared in the
media, which have tended to
talk down the performance
of the Nigerian economy and
question the accuracy and
transparency of the Excess
Crude Account and the
External Reserves of the
country.”
According to her, the specific
issues that have been raised
in recent times include the
health and prospects of the
Nigerian economy, the
composition of the external
reserves, and purported
discrepancies in account
balances reported by the
Ministry of Finance and the
Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN.
“Facts, figures”
To back up the claims, the
minister highlighted
improvements on the
nation’s economic indices,
saying “Inflation is now
down to single-digit at 9.0
percent in January 2013,
compared with 12.6 percent
in January 2012.
“The exchange rate has been
relatively stable, and the fiscal
deficit at just less than 2
percent of GDP is on a
downward trajectory, and
below our threshold of 3
percent of GDP.”
According to her, national
debt is at a sustainable level
at about 19.4 percent of GDP.
Overall, GDP growth2012
was 6.5 percent, and
projected at 6.75 percent for
2013, compared with the
projected global growth of
3.5 percent.
She said: “The above facts
have been independently
noted and validated by
international ratings
agencies such as Fitch,
Standard & Poor’s and
Moody’s, who have upgraded
the country’s economic
outlook, even as other
countries are being
downgraded.”
But…
Dr. Okonjo-Iweala said the
Ministry admits the socio-
economic challenges the
nation faces despite these
seemingly impressive indices.
She said: “We know we still
have a long way to go but let
us keep working to correct
what is wrong and stop
focusing on the denigration
of what is being done right.”
She highlighted the need to
create more jobs to curb
unemployment and that
poverty needs to decrease at
a faster pace as “we do not
want excessive inequality to
be a feature of our economic
growth.”
According to her, the recent
poverty statistics released by
National Bureau of Statistics
show a slight decline in
poverty levels of about 2
percent between 2003 and
2010.
Okonjo-Iweala said: “This
needs to be further
accelerated. The cost of
governance also needs to be
reduced, and the
government is taking steps
in this direction.
“In conclusion, the Federal
Ministry of Finance wishes to
stress that the outlook for
the Nigerian economy
remains good, despite the
current global economic
uncertainty.”

This is an arrant nonsense to say the least. Guess the best thing to do now is to always check on WAEC and NECO website everyday to maintain the authenticity of ones result.
I think there should be a way they should have notified the above mentioned school what fate had just befallen the result of their candidates in the exam registered with waec and suggested a possible solution to the problem.
I pray the boy will be able to maintain the 1st class because this is enough to cause a psychological problem in the guy making him to be depressed and at the end of the day affects his academic performance.
