Education / UNIZIK Has Not Released Cut-off Marks, Mangament Warns by vickysomtee: 10:51pm On Oct 19, 2017
The Management of Nnamdi Azikiwe University has warned the general public especially candidates that applied for the 2017/2018 admission into the institution, that the University has not released any admission cut off mark for the 2017/2018 admission.

There has been a press release purportedly from the University Management, signed by one Prof. Emma Amechi and published on one of the fraudulent Facebook pages using the University name on the release of the cutoff marks.
There is no such name as Prof. Emma Amechi in the institution and thus should be seen as a pseudo name used in disguise to defraud the unsuspecting public.

The General Public are by this information advised to be wary of the desperate activities of these admission racketeers.

The university urges the public to always refer to the university's official website and the official social media accounts of the University for clarifications and verification of informations.
Meanwhile individuals who go about creating social media accounts with the name of the University without authorization are advised to desist from such acts as they shall face punishment when caught.

The training of Corps members under the
NYSC Skills Acquisition and
Entrepreneurship Development Programme
(SAED) is set to commence in all
Orientation Camps on Monday, 31st July,
2017.

The programme, which commenced in
2012, is aimed at contributing towards
curbing the rate of graduate unemployment
in the country.
So far, nine hundred and sixteen thousand
(916, 000) Corps members have been
sensitized since the commencement of the
programme.

GAINS OF SAED PROGRAMM

Here are some of the gains of the SAED
programme over the past years:

1. NYSC has successfully entered into
partnership with stakeholders, including
the Central Bank of Nigeria, the Bank of
Industry (BOI), and the Heritage Bank, with
a view to empowering interested Corps
members with start-up capital to fund
businesses conceived after the SAED
training;

2. NYSC/BOI Graduate Empowerment Fund
(GEF), which kicked off in 2015, has so far
granted business loans to 407 Corps
Entrepreneurs. Maximum amount per
beneficiary is Two Million Naira (N2m).

3. The CBN/NYSC Youth Entrepreneurship
Development Programme (YEDP) kicked off
in 2016, and has so far granted loans of
Three Million Naira (N3m) each to seven
serving Corps members and many Ex-Corps
members;
NOTE: All the loans are given at single
digit interest.

4. NYSC is partnering with stakeholders in
the private sector to build Zonal Integrated
Skills ACQUISITION AND
ENTREPRENEURSHIP Centres in all six
geo-political zones.

The one for South-West has been
completed in Ekiti State. That of the North-
East has reached advanced stage in Gombe
while construction work on the one for the
South-South was officially flagged off early
July 2017 in Delta State.

Why work for others when you can be your
own master?

Won’t you rather give job to others?
NYSC SAED offers you opportunity for self-
employment and wealth creation.

Education / Uk University Reveals Why Nigerian Certificate Has No Value by vickysomtee: 9:02pm On Feb 13, 2017
According to the United Kingdom-based Metropolitan School of Business and Management (MSBM), certificates obtained outside Nigeria are more valued than those obtained in the country.


Among the reasons given for placing more value on foreign certificates include: “use of dynamic and relevant practice-based approaches” and the combination of corporate experience with “interactive teaching methodology with live case studies.”


Mosisiye Kayode, the assistant country director of MSBM (Nigeria), explained this in Abuja during the Enterprise 101 workshop organised for business managers, young professionals and aspiring entrepreneurs.


She said: “We have affiliations with schools in the UK but anyone participating in our school in Abuja has worked, studied and lived in the UK at a particular time because you cannot give what you do not have. So anyone who is going to teach in our class is someone who has studied, worked and lived in the UK .


“If you have a certificate from the UK, it is more appreciated because they know that we don’t just give you the teaching, we give you the real life scenario.



“Enterprise 101 has always been a vision of ours; we have actually been looking forward to bringing in people and entrepreneurs in Abuja to come around because most of them have things they will want to share with other young people just for young aspiring entrepreneurs to actually gain from.”


Chukwugozim Melekwe one of the participants said: “Even though I have some sort of safety net by working right now, it has always been a part of me to make things happen. We need knowledge to be successful. As a professional and aspiring business person, there are questions that I need answers for, there are things I need to know.”


It is important to note that a 2017 global ranking of universities released by the Times Higher Education placed the University of Ibadan in Oyo state, Nigeria at number 801 among the best 978 in the world

Alabi stood tall on the podium to address his colleagues, he said getting to the zenith of a man’s aspiration is substantially determined by God and not by human’s efforts.

He noted that he believes only in prayer, diligence and hard work, he advised his fellow students to read, assimilate and teach others or engage in academic discourse with them.


He included humility as another key to making it in life as well as forming the habit of having good mentors and seeking advice from them.

Alabi who is now in his late 20's said he would not wait to complete his internship before thinking of a postgraduate programme to pursue in clinicals and academics.
