naijaspeak: I do not live in Iceland. I live in Nigeria. I have information from some other western countries which also applies to Iceland. As for working to earn money you are limited by their law to some few hours per week this is to enable student concentrate on the study very well. But in some countries, you can work full time when the school is on holiday. But some student have abuse this priviledge leading to the rules being changed by the host countries or school.

If you are checking for Nigerians studying in Iceland, you can also extend your search to schools in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark as these countries have similar or near similar culture.

Best of Luck!
thanks so much

naijaspeak: Since you claim that the University of Iceland has offered you an admission you can still get the information from the University international office or their official website. Infact, cost of living and work opportunities details are often enclosed in the admission package that could have been mailed to you when they offer you admission in the first place. Have you also confirm if the medicine course will be delivered in English Language as against Icelandic. Are you going for first degree or masters? What about the tuition fees or do they offer free tuition? As for work you can only work part time just like student in UK or USA school. I think if you do not have sufficent fund to meet your international studies as against working to earn money as you will study under pressure and it will result in so much stress. Medicine is not business admistration it require special preparation. But of a truth you are the person that can regulate your standard of living based on your taste, preference, character and general lifestyle. You can afford to go shopping in top brands supermarket in Reykjavik or reduce you taste minimally and live in a cheap accomodation. The taste lies with you and your pocket. Best of Luck

PoliticsRevenue Sharing: South-south Governorswant 50% Derivation by Trailii(op): 8:24am On Oct 12, 2013
The governments of the South-south states have
called for a review of the revenue sharing formula,
which gives resource producing of the revenue
accruable to the nation at least 50 per cent and the
down ward review of federal allocation.
The states said
the review
became necessary due to the expanded
responsibilities of the second-tier of government
and also meet infrastructural development plans
for the people.
They also insisted that the federal government’s
failure to meet the significant aspects of its
assigned role and objective necessitated the
reduction in its direct duties.
Governors Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom and his
Bayelsa State counterpart, Seriake Dickson, who
were represented by their Secretaries to the State
Government (SSG), Mr. Udom Emmanuel and
Professor Allisson Edmund-Oguru respectively, in
their presentations in Yenagoa, to the opening of a
two-day zonal public hearing on the review of
revenue allocation formula, agreed that the 50 per
cent upward review of derivation to states would
increase states’ capability to function and meet
their development plans.
The states proposed a vertical formula in which the
federal government share should be reduced from
52.68 per cent to 40 per cent, the states from 26
per cent to 36 per cent and the 774 local
government from 20.6 to 24 per cent.
Both states, however, differed on the proposed
horizontal formula with Bayelsa proposing a
reduction from 40 per cent to 10 per cent sharing
based on population, Akwa Ibom State proposed a
reduction from 40 per cent to 15 per cent.
Dickson said the demand for upward review of
revenue allocation became imperative noting
environmental challenges arising from exploration
activities of the multinational oil companies in the
region.
Lamenting the level of environmental degradation
occasioned by oil exploration and exploitation
activities in the Niger Delta, the governor pointed
out that the current 13 per cent derivation
principle was grossly inadequate to address the
challenges confronting the region.
Calling for a reduction of money accruing to the
federal government from the Federation Account,
Dickson submitted that such reduction would
discourage the struggle for political power at the
national level and enhance the capacity of the
state and local governments to accelerate
development and make life more meaningful for
the people at the grassroots.
“The enormous resources at the centre have
fostered a do or die mentality among the political
elites of this country, most of who go to the
extreme to achieve their political ambitions to
control the centre. States favoured by the principle
of revenue sharing such as population and
landmass have grown steadily dependent on
allocation from the federation account and have
lost initiative and drive in matters of economic
planning and revenue generation.
“The RMAFC should revisit the era of 100 per cent,
50 per cent or 30 per cent derivation formula to
reflect true federalism. It is a well known fact that
the exploration of oil in the Niger Delta region has
not only exploited the people of the area but also
made the area toxic resulting into massive
pollution of the environment which has in turn
adversely affected the agrarian and subsistence
lifestyle of the people.
“The current 13 per cent derivation principle has
become increasingly inadequate to surmount the
huge developmental challenges confronting the
area.
“That is why it has become imperative for the
National Assembly to expedite action on the
Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB), which I believe when
passed into law, will adequately address the
lopsided revenue allocation formula especially to
the oil producing states and communities of the
Niger Delta.”
Other states representatives including the
Commissioner for Justice and Attorney-General of
Cross Rivers State, Mr. Attah Ochioke, muted the
need for a constitution review and reduction of the
derivation formula of the federal government to 35
per cent.
In his remarks, the Chairman of the RMAFC, Mr.
Elias Mbam, said the commission decided to
embark on the public hearing in line with the
provision of the 1999 Constitution, which
empowered it to review the revenue sharing
formula periodically.
According to him, the exercise would enable
Nigerians to make their inputs into the review
process that will bring about a new sharing formula
that will conform to changing realities in the
country.
Mbam who described the South-south zone as one
zone that has demonstrated strong commitment to
national development, called on the people to
avoid utterances and unrealistic demands capable
of heating up the polity.
