thanks. am aware

geekybabe:
Lol.. Contact ministry of education for what now?

to verify if the academic standard of a program is equal in comparism with what is approved here in nigeria. mariam abacha uni in niger republic was accredited in niger but failed to meet up with nigeria standard. you can get a degree in nursing within two years.

alexiej:
Pls do you know of any university in the US or Europe that gives FULL scholarship to international students for masters in law (LLM) or MBA or any related post graduate degree?

I've seen a couple of offers online, but I've not really seen one that gives FULL scholarship.
in
PS: my first degree result wasn't extraordinary, just a normal second class upper.

NO full blown scholarship unless you have a upper distintion that far exceed the normal academic requirement for a program.

scholarship can be partial or 70percent of a fees and at times you are made to work while your salary will be used for school fees.

program that are always available for scholarship are most at times design program that is set aside to sult goverment interest and might likely not be of benefit in the long run.athough there is exception.

i doubt any school will offer LLM OR MBA for free. this program is a selling point of many university.

western, for the exposure.

good. what is your budget？ and which western country is your prefer choice？

sircrabo:


Pls op, I will like relevant info on how to apply
For Masters in Germany.

Admission procedure, requirements, good schools, how much will be needed ...

Wrote some schools in Germany that offer courses in English recently, still waiting for their response. In most of the websites I visited I didn't see a registration form for masters, how do I apply and which school do you think is best ?

please note that german un is not as free as u think。to study abroad you need to also include accomodation and health insurance policy into your budget ,not excluding what i called chop money. you can get a german master degree locally without steping out of west africa. anyway if you are intrested in going directly, pri uni in germany will be better option for you. the puplic school hardly return emails and largerly prefer EU student.

if you have a relation there？ the person may go to your school of choice physically and made a request on your behalf.

Cyclone2000:
Thank you very much, vaxx. This is really an eye opener. I intend traveling to the Philippines to study medicine, my parents have finalised arrangements with one agency here, we were assured their certificates are recognised worldwide and that 1 in 10 of practicing doctors in the US got their degrees in Philippines. Pls, is there any other thing that I need to know.

check with philippines embassey and federal ministry of education

tinnymerit:
and what are the name of the bodies?

depending on the country of your interest. mention the country of your choice？ example UK it is QAA, GHANA it is NAB

archymacho:
I wanna write ILETS. Can I get tips about how to go about it successfully ?

the best advice iwill give is to email ILETS and ask for tranning school that prepare student for their exams here in nigeria. register with them and all other things will be added up.

LaDolceVida:
Wish i could jump on that plane right now

if wishes were horses complet it

tobbie247:
can you help in my search for affordable colleges for my master's degree? I'd be very grateful

yes i can . but this is my question to you？ will you prefer to study locally for a western degree？ how much is your budget？

voicelez:
I was expecting to see how to secure accommodation, how to secure a part time job. Op u try but it isn't comprehensive

thanks i will give more update on that soon. am interested to first ensure candidate do not fall into the hands of bogus university abroad

AgbenuAnna:
since WAEC is more recognized can 1 combine 2 WAEC ?
Currently am using Neco for my Bsc program am considering rewriting WAEC again to have upper hand when opportunity comes for me to school outside.
what do you think?

using two waec combined result may not be good option. western universities will consider only 1 siting exams. however some private uni in cameroon ,benin or ghana might take two sittings . the standard requirement of admission in nigeria is two waec or neco written exams not exceding five years interval. consult utme brochure for more update.

since you are about to finish up with your bsc. complet it and use it to apply for your master.

owem19:
Rubbish post

why do you think it is rubbish？

bufness:
is waec the only certificate that can be used, what bout neco

Neco too may be used. holding waec result might give you a upper hand than neco result. for instance university of ghana refused to accept neco result for the past years. although this is not a problem now. some schools may ask prospective candidate holding neco result to go for an evaluation before accepting them. i will always advice candidate to use waec instead of neco result

tinnymerit:
you have to verify your transcript with WES before you are given admission abroad.So ......?

yes but at times you can by pass it， getting in touch with WES from nigeria might be tediuos and may be costly. every country has a body that regulate admission requirement apart from the main institution. ours in nigeria is called NUC， a foreigner interested in schooling in nigeria may consult NUC instead of WES

1 contact the country embassey where the university is located. ask them relevant questions ？ at times the embassey may request for an official letter for that purpose and a little amount of cash. pls do it .it worth it.

2 consult ministry of education in abuja . at times school may be accredited in her country but unfit for nigeria education standard. mary abacha uni in niger is a typical example. this might also cost you. do it. it is better

3 ensure the institution program is accredited by relevant authourity where the school is located. make the use of website to checj on agency responsible for validating schools programs. eg in the germany FIBAA is the only responsible agent to vaiidate business course.

lastly. make sure , you document are valid （i.e）waec ,passport and other traveling document are intact and free of fraud. this might be an obstacle for you to proceed into nysc after you complet your degree if there isa little suspect of fraud， ASK ME ANY QUESTION ABOUT STUDY ABROAD

marvelling:
you can give useful information here without advertising anything. It can be without necessarily promoting a business.

that is true but the information will amount to advertisment

marvelling:
share the information on how to get the "same German degree" here in West Africa.

by the nairaland warning .i am not to,advertise here . so if you wish to know more drop your email ， i will post all information you need to know

TumiDonserenos:
You compare what you get in West Africa with what you get in Germany... if it's better why are our leaders sending their kids to study abroad? anyway you are entitled to your opinion.

Not everyone is bad in Nigeria and we have students who got their visas and are happy that they left. dishonesty, short cut and fraudulent documents contributes to failed visa applications. You keep saying its not 100% free now do you can't expect everything on silver platter and free. Again you can't go to Germany and expect free everything.

Don't generalise, Benin is visa free to South Africa so they can easily get visas to anywhere, Niger also have a good chance to get a visa. This are small countries not as big as Nigeria, they submit legit documents and always gets their visas and still they also go through rigorous processing but still gets visa.

I work with schools and embassies I know how it works. I am a consultant so I know these things, we guide you to a successful application that's why we emphasise that you don't take a short cut or do something that will, at the end, make you regret not taking an opportunity like this.

http://donserenosconsult.com/index.php/what-we-offer/education-consulting

it seems you are not current with what is going on currently trending in the world. companies are enlarging their coast by giving franchise to reputable institution who can perform at par with their main partner. kfc of the united state can be found in the street of ikeja.

go to dubai or malaysia . many uk university have brought themselves down to this country to also issue the same uk degree with the same standard.

germany is not cheap，i maintain . you do not only consider school fees when going abroad. accomodation and feeding cost should be involve. usa school fees is far expensive but cheaper to live than uk.

germany will not easily give you their visa eeven if you are from bostwana or south africa.how much nigeria.you must be able to convince them genuinely you are coming back.

the same german uni degree can be acquire here in w africa with the same standard. you pay less you also get the same degree with those who go there directly.

GOD is the actor and satan is the boss. until the movie ends（world ends）the boss can not be killed. imagine actor killed the boss in the early part of a movie. lol

TumiDonserenos:
Thank you for you contribution.

Now....
First of all in Germany they use Euros not Dollars and you are exaggerating. Second, there are jobs that you can get to ease your pockets, students can work while they study in Germany. Third, I don't know if you have travelled but your nationality will have impact on your visa processing. In our experience Nigerians will be scrutinised because in the past and still to this day submit fraudulent documents and over stay in Germany, moreover, being considered an economic migrant you will go through a rigorous visa process, I could go on and on about it but I think you are smart enough to get it. (and it's not only Nigerians that go through this)

We work with embassies and we have worked with clients who think they can jump the line. They will do what they need to make sure you are coming for the right reasons.

FREE EDUCATION

We are working with schools that do offer free education, some their tuition is low. As an international student you are getting a bargain not paying Full tuition. Now do you want them to now feed you and accommodate you? be thankful that you are getting your education for free the least you can do is pay for UNI-Assist, feed yourself and find shelter, you can work while you study. I bet you know tuition fee for international students in Canada is so expensive, let's not even mention Australia. Think about it, as an international student this is the place to study.

We offer more options than we listed here, we have had successful applications to these schools so we know what we are talking about.

Check out our website www.donserenosconsult.com or simply leave your email here and we can work with you and provide you with better options.

relax am aware germany use euros. but dollar is the most used currency for traveling. must migrant have their money in dollars when going or coming out of germany.dollars is very available to get than euros.

getting jobs for non EU member is getting difficult day by day. this issue of terrorist has also add salt to the recent injury. working while schooling in germany is not as easy as you are describing it. language barrer is there to frustrate you. your experience also count. germany will not pay you for your certificate. germany will pay you for your skills.

the visa process is very tough to secure if you are member of african , south america ,central asia and carrabian.

nigeria is expected to face more rigorous process becuse nigeria is not friendly to german citizens. nigeria as of last year kidnap about four german in river state. all this are in record.

no 100percent free uni in germany. in some school you will be expected to pay 500 euros or less for student union activity which is very mandatory. when you calculate your expenses all together you will realised you need more than 10.000 dollars in euro equvalent for just a semester.

you can secured a reputable german degree here in west africa. for a very affordable cost. it is logical you go to germany for master rather than undergraduate. a german degree you get here in west africa can fercilitate the easiest way. send me your email if you are interested.

GERMAN education is not as free as you might think. you need to consider feeding and accomodation cost excluding your own personal keep up cost. 10.000 dollars might not be enough for a semester.

it is a good idea thinking to school in germany as it is rated as one of the best country in the world to be educated. germany education is at per with usa and uk if not even better.

the process of securing german visa is second to USA in the whole world when it comes to how rigorous country visa might be to get.

anyway i may be of help if you wish to acqure a reputable german degree without spending much or jetting out of west africa. just post your email address.

What is the difference between Lord of heaven and earth and Eledumare of Yoruba?
How can ILE IFE be the beginning of mankind? when many part of the world proved it as a LIE. Ethiopia in human history is far older than Yoruba history. Yoruba language is not the oldest even in Nigeria but IBO language. I have met people on forum here telling this same thing before and they don't even have any proof
of 300BC . Have you seen the oldest human advanced settlement called GOBEKLI TEPE IN TURKEY that was well organised which about 12,000 years old. Even more advanced than Egypt. I am not here to proof a point to you because YORUBA ART and archeology finding is just about 1100 AD. And some people among here said, Yoruba is beginning of mankind. And Obatala was the creator of human being. If it is true, why did Odua chased Obatala during confrontation between the two group? Still, Odua and Obatala died. How can a man who died create human beings? I am too lettered than all these. Do you know Yoruba DNA have five different link with ISREALITES CONNECTION ? Namely; SAMARITANS, SEPHARDIC JEWISH OF TURKEY, JEWISH IRAQ, COCHIN JEWISH INDIA AND BNEI MENASHE JEWISH. And also related to about 79 or 80 traces around the world. What are you inferring? My dear, ILE IFE WAS NOT MY OWN PATRILINEAL ODUA FOUNDATION.
On the Yoruba tradition, I have also met people who claimed to be Ogboni, and I smiled because being an Ogboni doesn't make one a specialist in knowing herbs or incantation and ORO in which asé confirm it ( which literally mean, AMIN and it will come to pass)
Yoruba tradition describe God in one of the Odu Ofa corpus as the same with as ageless and cannot DIE. Go and read :God in Yoruba beliefs by Bolaji Idowu, you will see the description of ELEDUMARE as the same as God in Judaism. I am not really here to discuss history but to express my genuine opinion as it concerns Jesus Christ. So, my dear, I LOVE ILE IFE AS YOU LOVE IT BUT TRUTH MUST BE SAID AS IT STAND. ILE IFE ISN'T THE FIRST SETTLEMENT OF HUMAN BEINGS.
o
Cheers

olorun and eledumare are both names of the most supreme. i am not elling you yoruba culture are more accurate with the fact. i am only telling you the understanding of the yoruba that is practically diffrence from judeo-christain. no dna has seriously claim we share the same biological race with people from east.

infact some group of professional arrived eastern part of nigeria to check out the real truth of the igbo claim. although the outcome has come forth.


if you can proof eledumare and judeo
-christain god then i will realloy belive you
are letterd as you claim.

Islam, was a religion that existed less than 2000, years ago. So, Islam came after Prophet Muhammad translated Part of the OLD TESTAMENT to Arabic language that developed from Aramaic language. In all of these three religion, JUDAISM AND YORUBA RELIGION ARE OLDER than ISLAM. EVEN Islam is related to Judaism in some way. After all, Ibrahim(Islam), Abraham ( Judaism) ,while, Aboré(Yoruba tradition) .
The three religion acknowledge the existence of almighty God in a way other religion didn't acknowledge Almighty God.
The Bible describes GOD as VERY OLD with WHITE HAIRS on his HEAD and AGELESS WHO CANNOT DIE. He is known in the Bible as the Lord of Heaven and Earth . He is also described as having hands, leg, eyes, ears,mouth etc in the Old Testament. The Quran talk about God personality without description of him as having WHITE HAIRS etc like the BIBLE did but being supreme over all and AGELESS. While Yoruba tradition acknowledge God as the Lord of heaven and earth in whom all the orisas bow before because he is the SUPREME BEING. in ONE ODU IFA ,of Yoruba tradition, God is described AS HAVING WHITE HAIRS AND AGELESS WHO SPECIFICALLY SAID BY HIMSELF HE, THE AGELESS CANNOT DIE.

The three religion use Ram for sacrifice, while JUDAISM AND YORUBA USES Other animals such pigeon, lamb, heifer, etc .However, after Jesus came and gave himself up as the redemptive power through which we can communicate with God without any other blood spillage on the ground. It has become an alternative to many ways to associate with almighty God. After all ISLAM,RECOGNISES JESUS CHRIST AS A BREATH OF GOD THAT WAS DEPOSITED INSIDE THE BODY OF MIRIAM. The point here is that JESUS ISN'T AN ORDINARY MAN WITHOUT A FATHER FROM EARTHLY WAY. AND THE BIBLE CLEARLY EXHIBIT THE MEANS BY WHICH WE CONNECT TO JESUS THROUGH WHICH WE CAN CONNECT TO GOD ALMIGHTY. ISLAM DIDN'T GIVE A GUIDE AS REGARDS THIS. ISLAM ONLY FOLLOW THE SAME METHOD MOSES USED BY BOWING DOWN WHILE SEATED AND STRETCH OF HANDS UPWARD. RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST IS MORE THAN THAT BECAUSE, DESPITE THE METHOD IN WHICH MOSES PRAYED TO GOD AND CLOSELY RELATED TO SOME OF HIS TEACHING , THE DEVIL STILL CONTESTED TO TAKE HIS BODY WHEN MOSES DIED which was stated in JUDE 1:9.




KNOWING AND ACCEPTING JESUS IS A DIVINE CALLING , BECAUSE NO ONE CAN COME TO HIM EXCEPT THE FATHER CHOOSES SUCH PERSON(John 6:44, John 6:65) . MY DEAR FRIEND, YOU ARE OPPORTUNE TO QUESTION THE RATIONAL BEHIND THE MYSTERY OF JESUS AND A LITTLE MORE DIRECTING YOUR QUESTION TO HIM IN GENUINENESS WILL EXPOSE TO YOU HIS TRUE PERSONALITY



CHEERS

the understanding of eledumare（GOD）Is diffrent from the majour abrahim religion. infact yoruba eledumare is not the the same with both christain , jews or islamic god.according to majour abrahimic religion all man were created with clay and woman with a rib. yoruba teaching say oduduwa was given a cork and sand on a rope to be spread on earth. both account of world creation are incompatable.

yoruba ifa religion did not describe the physical shape of eledumare becuse it is formeless. it also did not subscribe to hell fire concept for the home of sinners. yoruba religion emphasised on paying obeyance to ori（destiny）has a way forward instead of fasting and prayer. likewise eshu known as satan in christendom is a minister of eledumare and threfore not evil. infact he play a leading role in ensuring all sacrifice leeds directly to eledumare.

yoruba eshu did not fight any god for any throne. he was asobode（gate keeper）of orun and earth. he is simply a subject of eleduumare . he lives within heaven and eaeth and not in hell.

this my question to you why is jerusalem and mecca a holy land and not any yoruba land.

what is the role of jesus or whoever in abrahimic belif in ile ife. the first cradle of the world.acccording to yoruba belife？

dont you think beliving in judeo-christain god is part of brainwashing or colonisation of the white？

Olu317:
I guess you need to know that Yoruba tradition has a trait of ancient Judaism in it. As it concerns Cleansing of sin through the usage of animal blood. However, JESUS CHRIST's blood was shed on Calvary's cross when he died and rose up from the dead. And he IS the SAVIOUR OF any INDIVIDUAL in the world, Who is willing to accept him AS PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOUR. YOU CAN GIVE HIM A TRY, HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN HOW YOU SEE HIM

even islam has a trait of yoruba culture ，does that mean i can also accept islam.

the problem here is that when you use what our great grand father use to heal and cured the sick it is labelled juju since you do not called jesus name to it . i belive why afica is underdeveloped today is becuse of the church . no youth wanner learn african method of healing again it is consider devilish.

who is jesus to us from africa here in nigeria as a black man. and who is god of the isrealite to someone like me from oshogbo in osun state nigeria

Samuel Ajayi Crowther was captured by Muslim Fulani during the Fulani/Oyo wars and he was sold with his mother and toddler brother to Portuguese slave buyers. However, the ship was intercepted by British Royal Navy and the slaves were released by taking them to Sierra Leone. This was where the Anglican Church Missionary Society took over the educating of young Ajayi.

One of his foremost achievements, apart from taking Christianity to the Niger Delta parts of modern Nigeria, Ajayi Crowther translated the English Bible into Yoruba. This can thus be said to be the first medium through which the Christian Satan/Devil/Lucifer was thus interpreted as the Yoruba Eshu.

Ajayi Crowther was also the one who compiled in 1843 the English-Yoruba Dictionary upon which so many others have been patterned till today. The word ‘Bara’ in the dictionary reads out the meaning thus: “god of mischief, the devil, Ifa.” Here it is plain that the devil and Ifa are the same to Ajayi.

Bara is a word use in qualifying Eshu in some of Eshu’s oriki poems: “Bara ti o logun ika/ To so ile ana re di ahoro (Bara who does not have evil medicine but turns his in-laws home into desolation). Bara l’abelekun sunkun ki eru o ba elekun/ Bi elekun ba n sokun, Laaroye a ma sun eje (Bara is the one who weeps with those weeping and they will be frightened by the time they see Eshu/Laaroye/Bara weeping blood). Bara ni abonimi su mi ki eru ba onimi/ Bonimi ba n su imi/ Laaroye a ma su ifun (The one defecating will be full of fright by the time he sees Eshu defecating his intestines). That is Eshu for you, a god that overdoes things in a frightening way… a prankster.



On the other side though, Eshu is the link between man and heaven – to the Yoruba. He is a strong god and one who has to be pacified so that he takes his tricks elsewhere, and moreover he does not allow trouble or evil to be done to us. If the Bible version is the same as this Eshu whom Yoruba add his name to the prefix of their children at birth e.g. Eshu-Biyi, Eshu-Tunde, Eshu-gbayi, and they even have a shrine of upside-down earthenware bowl with a hole in the bottom, to venerate this god, then does this mean the Yoruba worship the same Lucifer/Devil that rebelled against God?

It is clear that even the translated Yoruba-English dictionary in which Bara is also attached to Ifa shows that the translators have little or no knowledge about the Yoruba deities. Ifa and Eshu are not the same. While Ifa is the mainstream religion of the Yoruba brought to earth (like Jesus or Paul brought Christianity) by Orunmila who lived in Oke Igeti in today’s Osun State, Eshu had never lived like a man with children or wives… he is a god with functions in heaven. That is why another oriki says of him as “O san sokoto penpe/ Onibode Olorun.” (One who wears short pants and guards the way between man and the Heavens)

Let us objectively look into the function of Eshu who is a fierce god, like Thor or Sango but not evil like Hades. Eshu has to be constantly sacrificed to in Yoruba belief because he is the one between us and the other gods. Eshu has the power to decree any god not to harm a mortal and can also look away if the offending mortal refuses to perform sacrifice to ward of evil. Eshu does not cast evil, he is merely performing his duties to ensure that no man is unjustly attacked by evil.

There are eight forms of evil in Ifa philosophy, these are Death, Pestilence, Loss, Paralysis, Trouble, Curse, Bondage and Iniquity. All these eight are under the supervision of Eshu according to God (Olodumare) who placed Eshu in that role to monitor their activities. These eight are always trying to hinder the progress of man and this is why any sacrifice or rites performed on earth to ward evil must have Eshu’s Fifth share since he alone has authority to tell the Eight evil to desist from harming a particular person.

These items of sacrifice are mostly edible stuff that sometimes have to be shared to the person’s neighbours so that in their merriment they pray for him as well, it is also a form of tithes receipt for the babalawo and lastly some of the items are used on the person sacrificing; There is an example in a verse of Ifa where an albino called Ondese was asked to sacrifice on a particular day against death. He was asked to use Buje (a plant which has a juice used for tattooing) for sacrifice. The priests then used the Buje to rub him all over. On the appointed day Death came to seek him, Death could not recognize that the man who has been rubbed all over with Buje is the albino he sought; so Death left and Ondese lived longer.

The Christian Satan is a rebel; the Yoruba Eshu would never think of derailing from his functions. It is only the witches and sorcerers that Eshu has no power over and this is where Ifa too says that it is only one’s Ori (head/soul) that can protect one against Dark/Evil Magic cast by witches. Eshu has nothing to do with cursing man or turning man against God. He serves as mediator between us and the heavens. There is no record in Ifa that Eshu rebels against Olodumare, besides, is it not demeaning the power of God that the omniscient created something It had not foreseen would rebel and cause trouble for mankind in such huge scale?

Ajayi Crowther could have translated the Bible Satan as satani. He was a boy of 12 when he was stolen from Osogun, his village in Iseyin, Oyo, and had very little knowledge, if any, of Eshu and his complicated functions. If Eshu were the Devil, Ifa would totally have been upturned into evil and Yoruba would not be one of the most enlightened race in Africa today. We would have been submerged in the Devil’s evil.

Eshu is not evil. But today, millions of Yoruba have seen Eshu as the Christian devil with the influence of the translation and the Yoruba Bible. The Yoruba dictionary clearly shows that elitism crept into the translating pen of the translators as a result of their little knowledge of Yoruba spiritual beliefs, which Christianity taught them is the Devil’s belief. Let us remove prejudice and be objective… Eshu shields man from evil and can also expose man to evil, but he is not evil. Neither is he contesting power with God.

It is the Christian God that is a white man with white beard and a golden crown… The Yoruba God (Olodumare or Olorun) has no form. It has never been described… Olodumare is an existence in the transcendence. Something no deity can contest power with. Evil is also formless, that is why the Eight Evil were placed under the authority of Eshu to protect man, but Witches can use their craft to tap into the evil energy but unfortunately they are not subjected to Eshu and difficult to pacify them. God allowed evil but restrained evil, and only the karma of man brings them upon him. Even if witches cast evil on a man, his Ori is his last bunker to defend him and this Ori also depends largely on the past karma he has accrued.

It is ridiculous to say God’s creation is rivalling him to take earth when there are thousands of planets within and outside our Solar System. When the Bible was written with this view of throwing devil into earth, there was little idea of the galaxy. If the bible were written today, the Genesis and Revelation would have been written differently. Lastly, Eshu cannot take or give man soul, like the Christian Devil can. Eshu does not need a soul or reside in any Hell. He is an important minister of God. Those who perform devil worship and the Satanists perform a lot of human sacrifice and mortification… but Yoruba do not sacrifice humans to Eshu or require to mortify their bodies

THE YORUBA ESHU IS A MINISTER OF GOD AND NOT DEVIL THE EVIL BEING

osic:
Heres a list of area of specialization, which would you suggest??
agricultural administration, agricultural development communication, agricultural extension education, agricultural planning and evaluation and rural sociology.

since you are interested in teaching line Agricultural extention education will be better. agricultural administration is not a bad idea also if you choose to work on the farm

Tallesty1:
Guy, palm wine has many health benefits especially when consumed fresh and unfermented.

Palm wine is high in amino acids, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and iron. The palm tree sap drink also has vitamin B1, B2, B3, and B6.

It promotes lactation , treats conjunctivitis, and improves eyesight. So what are you saying?

what about the liqour content. that made you almost the same like a mad man on the street when fully consumed.

Did you know that soft drinks like coke contain more chemical/artificial components when compared to beer?
That's why the pH of coke is 2.5 which is highly acidic.

Health wise, 35cl of Lager beer is 5x better than 35cl of coke.

chemical componet of alchool is far more than that of soft drinks. i am not an advocate of soft drinks. natural fruits will be better but nothing match water
