Timaya is a style icon. Few ppl you can compare to that dude when it comes to dressing!

I hope ice prince doesn't have any beef with any rapper, esp someone like Olamide with no holds barred.

It will be worse than what Tupac did Biggy.

Chrisvicmall.

Shey him dey always pray for double portion.

Great job Tugrow.

I've opened the account on taobao and it works on 1688.com. Can't wait for the rest of your lessons.

I know this is off topic but pls could you recommend a reliable freight forwarder that can ship 1 CBM and above; and at the same time can purchase from china for me.

My default shipper does just air - normal and express.

Thanks.

Pls continue with the lecture.

Hian! who ask am?

Thanks for the information with a source provided. I rated them high not for infrastructures, because they don't even have nice structures when compared to the likes of OAU and to an extent Uniben.

Please note that huge budget doesn't translate to effective usage, which is the case of most of the government owned institutions. Federal universities (especially those of first generation) have always gotten the highest portion of the budget for education, but huge percentage of it ends up in the account of the top ranking officials of these schools. Which is a different case in most privately run businesses, where accountability is not joked with. This however doesn't mean those private schools ain't got enough, especially those affiliated with populated religious establishment. Where members are asked to pay some dues for running of these schools despite the huge tuition fee they charge their students. lol.

Some other points you made are other reasons I said the school is lagging, and why they have not been rated above the few Fed universities they trail.

Nice one JP. I think we are basically on the same page. You mentioned, though, that you didn't rate them high because of infrastructure; care to discuss why you rated them high? Just curious cos I've not been to any private school. I totally agree with you when it comes to accountability and mission running schools. A classical example is the impact of mission in anambra public schools since management was handed back to them. Phenomenal! Yet, budget vs actual is a standard problem or issue world over. While I cannot categorically claim they mismanage their funds, I can assign a margin of difference/error to expected results vs budgeted results. Association of certified fraud examiners claim the average cost of fraud per organization is 5% of revenue of allocation in this case. If you take away 5% from 8.5bn, the balance is still a tall order. That's just one aspect still. Anyway, I'm happy to know that CU and other private universities are pulling their weight. I'm sure school calendars, cultism etc are also considered and the likes of CU would rank tops in such aspects due to their zero tolerance.

Thanks for your response.

Cheers

Brother, I never went to CU. But what that school has, Believe me UI that was rated #1 is not close to it. I've been to most federal schools in the southwest which are in the top 10. The only thing I think CU is lagging for them not to be rated above UI, Unilag + OAU is the much younger graduates, which is peculiar to newer schools compared to 1st generation schools.

Thanks man. Higher institutions are not ranked based on infrastructures alone. Tenure for professors, publications, affiliations with other great schools, even the clout of their alumni etc. While I agree that CU graduates are very good products (considering those I have worked with), there are certain areas where only time and focus can get the school to. Take for instance funding, this year alone the federal ministry of health, per the budget, plans to expend 8.5bn naira in UNN teaching hospital. That is a a lot of money and not an amount most private universities can contend with. This amount should be for training, tenure, sponsorships, salaries, infrastructure of just the college of medicine. When other factors are also taken into consideration, you would realize that the basis for ranking may not have factored in a lot.

I definitely don't know more than the NUC. But for the sake of transparency, it would be great if the basis of assessment is also made public.

FYI, I'm not a graduate or student of UNN.

How does CU rank above UNN?

Indeed what criteria was used?

That seat can be reclined. It's definitely more comfy than the floor.

I guess u can take the boy out of the streets but ....

Massive respect for Wizkid though.

A guy that "no do no do" has brought his mum to come and talk to you?! Hmmmm!!!

I'm not saying he's bad but be rest assured you will have to keep dealing with that woman.

Of course, in the long run that may be a better option if number one takes off.

It's a complicated situation most girls face. Typically, I would advice sticking with guy number one since I feel tailor made is better than ready made.

However, in the pursuit for happiness, anything can happen. My question for u is that if I tell u that if u choose either of them, it's going to turn out bad, which would be your higher regret - not going with number one or not going with number two?

Regrets kill. Notwithstanding what the future may bring (cos it's not entirely in your hands), go with your heart. That's what you won't love to regret.

Don't do it!

Be full of praise, compliments and gratefulness.

I appreciate opposition and constructive criticism but non-issues like this create unnecessary distraction in the polity.
So are we supposed to start analyzing who the president shakes and who he doesn't?

Let's stick with the issues abeg. What's the status on all the promises made during the campaign. Those are the real issues.

What a piece of useless reporting.

Who else would the money be with?

CBN is government's bank.

Questions we want answered are:

1. How much has been returned?

2. Who returned the monies?

3. When will they be prosecuted?

Stealing/corruption whether returned or not must be prosecuted in line with the constitution. It is not left for the present government to decide what to do.

The president swore to uphold the constitution and that implies prosecuting the looters. No exceptions.

He doesn't love you.
He doesn't respect you.
He actually thinks you are quite st*upid going by the kind of lie he's telling you.
Infact, I dare say he thinks you have sub- human intelligence.
Perhaps he's right. You tell me.

Rubbish! Picture of D Banj prostrating or I don't believe it.

Call those lines at your own peril.

Nigerian police can never rat on another police man.

So don't be surprised when your case gets worse after reporting.

When what is following AW starts following them now, they will wonder where it came from.

Anyway, I pray they always have each other's back like AW and board of AFC

Nice write-up. Interesting and engaging.

Reminds me of the Reuben whose writing I loved so much.

More of this and I just may forget your sordid sourjone into politics.

Naaaaa!!!

Keep it coming though.

EM U EM U!

And to all the women that withhold sex just to punish their husbands, Fvock u too!!

NDE that has been around since the nineteen century, Ngige is talking about it as if it is a new idea.

Basically old wine in new bottle.

Hope it works but I think the programme needs some serious re-engineering.

New ideas please

If only he was going there to say something nice about Nigeria.

Rather he will go to all these places and tell them how corrupt and backward Nigeria is.

Dear PMB you don't need to waste tax payers money going abroad to tell the white man what he already knows.

Stay home with your ministers and sort out our problem.

And stop wasting our money.

And please sell 9 of those jets already. You don't need more than 2.

Thank you

2019 is far away o...

Do you know how many lives are lost due to mis-management.

We need change now.

Make we no become perpetual hopers lik gooners

Kaduna state governor Nasir El-Rufai says the stress of seeking ways of creating jobs for the teeming unemployed youths in Kaduna state has left him tired after just 5 months of assuming office. El Rufai said this while speaking at the just-concluded Ake Arts and Book Festival which held in Abeokuta, Ogun State November 17-21.

“As a state governor the challenge for me is what to do to create jobs in Kaduna State. Eighty-two per cent of the eight million people in Kaduna State are below the age of 35.
My challenge is not whether population grows next year or the year after. It is to get jobs for this young people, otherwise no one will sleep in peace. Frankly speaking, five months as governor, I am already tired. I honestly do not think that anyone who wants to do this job seriously can do it for more than four years and not burn out. When I look at some of my colleagues, some are putting on weight, they are looking nice, I ask them, ‘how do you do it?”he said

http://www.metronaija.com/2015/11/5-months-as-governor-i-am-already-tired.html

Please ask Okorocha that question.

Good news with the choppers.

When will this culture of launching this and launching that end?

Why do our leaders keep wasting tax payer's money by flying up and down to launch something that has already been procured.

All that wasted man hours that could be spent actually doing something more useful than smiling to the camera and holding a pair scissors.

I hope the Lai Mohammed led ministry of communication will come up with more efficient ways for FG, SG and LG to communicate their achievements without going from one location to another in the name of commissioning.

I don talk my own.

Hunger na bast@rd!

People asking her not to go may be right.

But the girl threatened her son for goodness sake.

What kind of mother allows that to just slide.

If Na me, I will even involve police self.

Those capable of evil acts do not understand the language of "letting things slide".

She needs to be aware that if anything happens to Op son or family, she, her mother and rest of the family will be thrown in jail and the keys thrown away.

You don't back away from some kind of people o. You fight back. Who says she can't perpetuate her evil acts from the village.

She needs to write an undertaking self. Don't let this go. That girl may have some demonic forces working in her and you don't back down for those.

You have done the most important thing- identifying your error and learning from it. Perhaps it was not an error; perhaps you were stating the obvious.

I served with a bank. They conducted test for all the corpers. I came out tops. At the interview, I told them I couldn't be an operations staff as it wasn't beneficial to me. I was a teller during service. I told them I preferred to be a marketer. Whatever spirit ministered that to me, I cast and bind it; yet I thank it. I lost the job. Few months later, I got one of the big 4 accounting firms.

So persevere, your job is on the way.

WTF!!!

FRSC will not see this one o.

But if Na to check the expiry date of my spare tyre, they will suddenly become competent.

Seems like Jagaban has pulled an OBJ on these Kogi people.

How does a Lagosian become deputy governor or even governor in Kogi state.

jonnieoneng:
Well go on and bad mouth the dead as it is said the dead are all guilty not because they nare ...but bexcause they can not defend themselves any more so ...why don't you tell the whole world what actually happened between you and the Audu's to warrant all this nonsense.........................
let me tell you what a sensible woman once said in my hearing to the issue of Rape . She said only a very foolish Girl gets raped because rape is a function of being at the wrong place at the wrong time.So lady examine yourself ...are you sure that you didn't deliberately present yourself as a willing prey to one of the Audu's just because of their standing in the society and just because they refuse to acknowledge you ..you now decide to drag the man name because he died,.....dea is GOD oooooo

I apologize in advance.
You and the woman who told you that are the foolish ones.

SerialGist:
But why do issues like this always come up just at the eve of one's long awaited success in life? If this is somw sort of shi!ts put together just to destroy one's dignity, integrity and effort in life, you all girls better stop it. A family member has just recently been elected as a new VC in one of the federal universities in south south and all of a sudden, issues of sexual harrassment and rape allegation are already trailing him. Why didnt the issues come up before his emergence as the VC? Not like i kick against the girl but do what you should do when you have to do it and not when someone is succeeding in life and you come up with negative claims just to taint his personality. Btw, i hope she should afford herself tight security for what she just posted there with her face fully shown, else, this time around, they wont only rape her, her throat will be slit off too.

Because revenge is a b&$#tch and is best served cold.

You seem like a decent guy. Pay less attention to why people wait for so long. It takes a lot of strength and spirit to come out. Atimes, the motivation is keeping an animal from the public.
Everyday for the thief, one day for the owner. I don't care if you did it 50 years ago, when the bell rings, you must answer.
If I were the president, I would remove statute of limitations from our laws. It makes no sense to me.
