hmm. When you are there you will know. If anyone needs help concerning the screening and any info, you can contact me.
If you're an EKSUITE and you're saying this, I'm very much disappointed. What happened to spirit of oneness, optimism and struggle?
Together, we're building a 21st century university. Of course. there are glitches. But we will pull through and make history together. Nobody is forcing EKSU on anybody. You're free to look for a problem-free university. Goodluck with that.

Actually, I made a promise to someone I respect so much. A father figure who is astute academically and devout religiously (the latter is more of comic relief). I told him if I get MBBS in EKSU, regardless of whatever outcomes the others brought forth, I'd come back to EKSU. My word is my bind.
I'm coming back.. looking forward to meeting you Sire.

PoliticsX-raying The Motives Of Overnight Artiste-Politicians. by Zikdik(op): 8:06am On Oct 05, 2014
X-raying The Motives Of Overnight
Artiste-Politicians
by Theophilus Ilevbare
Just when we were coming to terms with the
precipitous foray to the political scene of some
entertainers like Gongo Aso crooner, Abolore
Akande popularly known as 9ice, gospel singer,
Kenny Saint Best and actor, Desmond Elliot, all of
whom have in recent time declared their political
ambition and aligned themselves with political
parties, Tony Tetuila (reals names, Anthony
Olarenwaju) has quickly joined the burgeoning list
of Nigerian artistes vying for elective positions in
next year's general election.
Even if the joke sounds too expensive and only
himself believes it, popular stand-up comedian,
Julius Agwu, thinks he can become the next
governor of Rivers state. The list of intending
artiste-politicians keeps growing as the bandwagon
syndrome catches up with more of them. Before
the end of the year, more artistes will throw their
hat in the ring.
Before now, some entertainers have already delved
into the murky waters of Nigeria's politics. Tony
Muonagor (aka Tony One Week), in 2011, rode on
the back of his popularity to win a seat at Anambra
state House of Assembly, making history as the
first Nigerian entertainer to win an elective
position. Should 9ice fulfill his claim, he will follow
in the footsteps of Rotimi Makinde, who was
elected into the House of Representatives in 2011
to represent Ife Federal Constituency. And like
every other Nigerian politician, Makinde is
interested in seeking re-election.
Bob-Manuel Udokwu, Senior Special Adviser on
movies/entertainment industry to former governor
of Anambra, Peter Obi, retained the post after
Governor Willie Obiano came into office. Udokwu
seem not to be content with a political
appointment, he is now gunning for the Anambra
state House of Assembly to represent Idemili north
constituency. Sir Victor Uwaifo, famed highlife
musician, was Commissioner of Tourism and
Culture twice in Edo state. Imo state governor,
Rochas Okorocha, appointed Nkiru Sylvanus as
Special Assistant on Lagos Affairs. Kanayo O.
Kanayo was recently announced as the Chairman
of the National Institute for Hospitality and Tourism
Studies, a new body that oversees the Nigerian
Toursim industry. Several Nollywood actresses like
Onyeka Onwenu, Hilda Dokubo, Actors like;
Dickson Iroegbu, Sam Dede and Richard Mofe
Damijo, have all bagged various political
appointments between 2011 and now.
This latest fad among entertainers has sharply
divided Nigerians especially on social media with
many claiming they have joined politics for
pecuniary reasons. These artistes have argued that
elsewhere entertainers have made a success of
their political foray citing notable instances like
Arnold Schwarzenegger, two term Governor of
California and Ronald Reagan, former President of
the United States, as examples of actors who
ventured into politics. However, they failed to add
that both men joined politics at the pick of their
careers in a democracy where the President of the
world's most powerful country earns less than a
Senator of the federal republic of Nigeria! The
debate for a drastic reduction in salaries and
allowances of Nigerian politicians to serve as a
disincentive to pretenders masquerading as
aspiring political leaders, has once again, gained
traction.
Unlike the American actors highlighted above,
most Nigerians think these entertainers could be
drifting to politics in a bid to arrest their nose-
diving careers, a last ditch attempt to bounce back
to relevance. Or could it be that the wealth
acquired from the entertainment industry is less
fulfilling than what political offices have to offer? Is
their ambition borne out of a genuine intention to
serve the people or an attraction to the
stupendous wealth and power political office
holders wield? Unlike the Late Fela Anikulapo Kuti
whose songs and lifestyle resonated the streets,
this new crop of entertainers seldom compose
music with such lyrical content or act movies that
speaks truth to power and trumpet the change
they seek to effect through the ballot.
How many of them have been arrested for
demanding accountability and transparency from
the present government through their roles in the
entertainment industry? What gives them the
impression that they can effect change in ways
'regular' politicians can't? In what way have they
given back to the society that made them stars?
What makes us think they will act differently as
politicians? How have they demonstrated that they
can bring the much needed changed by redefining
leadership when a good number of them have not
previously garnered or exhibited any sterling
leadership qualities at any level, not even from the
entertainment industry they're hibernating from.
These are people whose businesses and daily lives
are even managed by Managers! A few could not
even manage their marital lives; they're still single
after going through divorce(s).
How can the welfare and lives of millions of
Nigerians be entrusted to persons with credibility
issues of scandals ranging from relationship to
behavioural? Nigeria is in dire straits and in need
of astute, shrewd and intellectual leadership.
Technocrats, not entertainers thought of by many,
as people not to be taken seriously, especially in
matters political. Moreover, what is their political
ideology? Can it move the country forward? I doubt
if their 'brand of politics' is sellable because there
are a lot of question marks over their competence.
Without necessarily venturing into politics, they
can make more impact and inspire change from
within the entertainment industry they already find
themselves, with the their music, like late Fela, and
right from the movie scripts to the roles they act.
Political fans and entertainment fans are different.
Their popularity in music arena should not be
misinterpreted as acceptance by the general
public. Showbiz and politics are two worlds apart.
The hope of riding on the crest of that popularity to
occupy elective political office might be fantasy,
after all. They should not attempt to exaggerate
their fame.
The present crop of politicians have failed us but
entertainers, without a clear ideology of what
political leadership entails, moving in droves in
their direction is the last thing we want. Their
political participation is not about themselves but
about the rest of us because it determines the
welfare of many Nigerians.
At a time we're trying to arrest the tragedy of
leadership failure and breaking the vicious circle of
leadership bankruptcy, we cannot allow the system
to throw up more of such 'leaders' who obviously
lack a clear vision of what political leadership is all
about. We've had enough drama in the political
scene already; the least we want is for Nollywood
to add to it. The country needs true leaders who
have prepared themselves adequately to take up
leadership positions.
Cynics doubt if these artistes can clinch their
party's ticket. Can they survive the intrigues and
stormy internal politics of power and raw cash?
Will these political parties shove aside loyal party
members and chieftains for ebbing celebrities? Are
they seemingly hoping to be game changers by
'settlement' with political appointments?
It is too early to say categorically, how far they can
go, as it remains to be seen if they will get their
party's nod considering the ever-slippery and
tricky game of Nigerian politics where political
juggernauts and gladiators are sometimes beaten
to their game.

Cite them yourself.
I'll repeat my self -
the round world in an era bf scintifc thought. Before galileo and formalized reasong systems.
When nobody cared talk less of killed for science.

Which group of men had the prescience?

Destructive properties of sound waves.
Formerly recognized last century.
The fall of d wall of Jericho was by sound, how could men in that era hav known this? Before science caught up, d jericho story wudv been one huge joke. Now scientists and engineers know its very plausible.

The prediction of the modern age - the age of information:
Daniel 12v24.
All the great advancements of the modern world occured in about 3 centuries.
Go do ur math to ponder y mankind was so in the dark for so long.

A psychologcal truth even the irreligious agree to.
"As He thinketh in His Heart so is He"
Prov 23:7

psychologist hav arrived at this conclusion.
Motivational speakers espouse this truth. Yet again the bible was light years ahead of its time.

Which human parties thought this up?
A useless book? Full of treasures?
Right on spot too many times.

Go chew on this.


Noah's ark.
Watabout it?

Talking donkeys and snake?
Yes. Talkg donkeys and snake.
Red sea parting in two.
Food falling from the sky.
Man outracing a chariot.
Men of super human strenght .
While you think these ar fantasies,
it's because u ar ignorant and being an atheists you operate under a false and incomplete assumption.
That the physical world is all there is.
That is d assumption u use to ridicule the bible.
But the bible has no time to cajole you. It categorically states tht the physical world isnt all there is.

With your old (unfounded) assumption negated by the bible , the so called fantasy stories make PERFECT SENSE.
- A donkey can TALK God made it do so.
Animals already communicate to each other,wat happens if the CREATOR of the animal decides to make their communication decipherable to humans?

A talking snake?
Why not?
A snake possessed by a malevolent entity,satan, and made to produce human decipherable sounds. Y not?
The talkg snake proves a phenomena well proven in d bible.
A spirit inhabits a body, and uses the vocal organs in that body to communicate.
2. How fascinating would it b to d woman seeing a snake talk?
This makes PERFECT SENSE because d objective was to arrest d woman's attention. Then decieve her thru dialog.
In the new Testament, Jesus caste devils outta ppl. These devils used their inhabitants vocal cords to communicate.

Sun stand still.
How is this far fetched?
The people of tht day didnt know about the world being flat or rotating around d sun.
They saw the sun "rise" and "set".
When a warrior needed more daylight,wat was he to say , given his level of understang at the time?
Use ur head and think!
Why does this make perfect sense- because there's a God who hears and answers prayers.
Joshua expected God to hear and answer him-and God did. By pausing d rotation of the earth!
Makes PERFECT SENSE because God created it and can control it.

Leviticus 13:49
y dont you quote it verbatim here.

Releasing vital information to the enemy can go in two directions:
It is either false or true.
If false, then this is a bottleneck subterfuge. The aim is to deceive and trap. That could be a diamond subterfuge but for the fact that every step written above are practicable steps one would expect APC to take, strategy or not, hence we know it isn't false information.
This being their true intents is an hornet's nest strategy. It is usually used to keep the enemy busy whilst you prepare to launch something bigger i.e APC have a sucker punch of their own and would rather have PDP look in another direction so as to blow them away unawares or make irrational and panicky decisions and drown in their own quicksand before being buried by APC's finisher. Interesting.
In any case, the PDP camp would be very busy now. How would they move from here?
