Hehe! Man Dies After Losing Money To Lotto (baba-Ijebu)
A middle-aged commercial motorcyclist identified as Marcel Okorie, reportedly slumped and died at a lottery point popularly called 'Baba Ijebu', after he realised that he had lost a huge sum of money which was said have run into several thousands.
The incident which happened somewhere around Akute, a suburb of Ogun State, according to eyewitnesses, saw the shocked stakers running helter-skelter after Okorie rode on his bike to the spot and on checking the board, realised he had lost his money and was heard moaning to himself, lamenting that he had lost the money meant to pay his house rent after he was given an ultimatum to pack out of his rented apartment by his landlord.
A witness who did not want his name in print painted the picture:
"It is very sad. I knew the man very well. We used to do 'okada' work together from Ogba to Akute and once in a while, we staked 'Baba Ijebu' at the same place.
On the fateful incident, Marcel said he had a dream where his late father gave him some numbers and he played with over N45,000 and would have won millions if they had played.
But unfortunately, the numbers did not play and he slumped when he saw the result. We tried to revive him and by the time we were able to take him to a nearby hospital, he was already dead.
One chance my guy! Lool. No vex say I laff shaa., all love
South African,Egyptian Universities Dominate Africa's Top 30 Universities#seeOh
And it’s here, just released Friday, though only ranking the top 30 of Africa’s approximately 2,600 higher education institutions.
THE Africa University Ranking
1. University of Cape Town (South Africa)
2. University of the Witwatersrand (South Africa)

10. Universite Cadi Ayyad (Morocco)
11. University of Pretoria (South Africa)
12. University of Ghana (Ghana)
13. University of South Africa (South Africa)
14. Suez Canal University (Egypt)
15. Universite Hassan II (Morocco)
16. Addis Ababa University (Ethiopia)
17. Rhodes University (South Africa)

26. Alexandria University (Egypt)
27. Assiut University (Egypt)
28. University of Sfax (Tunisia)
29. University of Yaounde (Cameroon)
30. Minia University(Egypt)
These results are essentially based on the amount of citations there are for the university’s work. They are derived from the methodology for the current world university ranking, using the 13 factors (below), combining THE’s own enormous database of statistics along with the Elsevier’s Scopus database - a system that highlights some of the continent’s top performers in terms of how often research papers are referred to and cited by other academics globally. This methodology is designed for the research-led globally facing university. Times Higher Education emphasised that not everyone in Africa will find the metrics appropriate to their mission or their strategic priorities making this ranking a starting point of a longer, inclusive conversation involving African institutions.
One of the big surprises was the omission of several African universities that have consistently featured high up on global ranking lists. Namely; Cairo University, University of Ibadan, University of Nigeria and Al-Azhar University in Egypt.
The other surprise was the appearance of unexpected or lesser-known institutions, such as the Universite Cadi Ayyad (10), Port Harcourt (6), the Universite de Sfax in Tunisia (28), Universite Hassan II (15) and several other institutions from Egypt namely; Suez Canal University (14), South Valley University and Minia University (30) .
In an interview with M&G Africa, Phil Batty - Editor of the Times Higher Education World University Rankings - explained that even though they have spent the last 4-5 years modifying and refining a methodology that would be better suited to an African, as opposed to a global, ranking - “there’s still a long way to go”. He said that what THE has “created is a snapshot of research strength”.
Batty was also candid about the lack of extensive data in creating this first THE Africa university ranking. That this is “the very start of the story. [Because] world rankings are driven by research, innovation and tech development, we need to work with African universities on [indicators such as] their teaching and graduate success…the rankings we’re publishing are actually very much the starting point. We want to use this conference to convince universities to start collecting and sharing data more consistently.”
The build up
The ranking comes at a time when Africa’s universities are looking to experience a period of revitalisation, with a booming middle class and concentrated pan-African efforts - such as the Higher Education Summit in Senegal earlier this year - aimed at addressing their challenges. Yet, African universities have become lost in global rankings - measured against institutions in the rich, developed world which continue to dominate the leagues and without focused efforts that look to finding metrics which are appropriate to the African context.
One of the key actors in the creation of this Africa ranking is the University of Johannesburg.
In an interview with M&G Africa, Professor Ihron Rensburg - the Vice-Chancellor and principal of the University of Johannesburg - explained that, as part of the University’s 10th anniversary, they engaged THE to say “we have an apparently shared ambition, first you have a series of conferences where you create the opportunity for universities to reflect, [engage in] dialogue and debate on the state of universities in order to ramp up excellence in teaching and learning and research – we as the University of Johannesburg – share that driving ambition and that is important for us that Africa’s universities pursue global excellence and stature in internationalisation, collaboration, teaching and research.”
He emphasised that the University of Johannesburg “effectively founded and conceptualised the idea and asked [THE] to do it jointly – [bringing] together our driving ambition and creating a forum for African Universities to debate and dialogue.”

PHOTOS :Ghanaian Policemen 'Rocking' A Little Girl.Hehe!
Why this has gone unnoticed by the authorities is a mystery to us and why nobody tried to stop this shameful act is beyond us.
Why will two members of the countries police force are grinding on a teenager while wearing their police uniforms. They have disrespected the police profession and also violated the little girl.
This brings into question the accusations that some
policemen take s exs exual favours in order to turn a blind eye to crimes and also blackmail prostitutes into having s exs ex with them.
Ambode Welcomes Walmart, Seeks Firm’s Support On Job Creation*nice!
The delegation of the firm, a leading global brand in retail supermarket, was led by the President and Chief Executive Officer of Walmart Europe, Middle East, Africa and Canada, Shelley Broade, on Thursday.
Ambode said the presence of the Walmart brand in Lagos would go a long way not only to create jobs for the teeming youths, but also boost the economy of the state.
He said the success story of the brand, which currently operates in 28 countries with over 2.2 million employees, would be beneficial to the growth of the state as well as his vision to make life comfortable for residents.
The governor said, “That summaries the reason why Walmart has to berth in Lagos. We are committed to expanding the business scope for Walmart and like I said, I am interested in having your brand signature in Lagos.
“You have been pro-people and that’s why we find a congress between the objectives of Walmart and Lagos State Government.
“As we speak, we have a population of over 21 million people and four million of that population are in the middle class. We have a bulging youth that is craving for employment and whatever it is that we do, we want to make sure that we attract as much investment to Lagos that can help us to take our youths off the streets and give them employment.
“What I stand here to offer is the commitment to make the investment climate favourable to investors. We want to ensure that whatever it is that would make the business bigger for you, we are committed to it.”
“I want to assure you that if it is in the area of land permits or authorisation for issues that relate to setting up business, we are committed to making sure that we fast-track and do it as transparent as possible to allow more businesses to come to Lagos.”
Broader acknowledged the investment opportunities that abound in the state, adding that the Group was ready to expand its business horizon and create jobs for the people.
She said, “We are incredibly excited and proud to be in this exciting state of Lagos. Just looking at the burgeoning economy and at the growth in this market is very exciting and now Walmart operates around the world in 28 countries and our mission is to lower the cost of living, to help people save and live better.
“The passion that you feel right when you land at the airport, there’s an excitement here. You can feel that this is a state within a country really on the move forward. There is a smile on the people’s faces; there is eagerness and there’s a mission that they are on to better themselves and their families. It’s very exciting.”
Akon In Nigeria To Visit Tinubu, Ambode & Dangote Today *hmm
Akon (pictured below with journalist Ayodele Samuel) arrived Lagos state, the nation's commercial capital on thursday night (July 30th 2015) in company of Guinea Ambassador to Nigeria Usman Mohammed Yara and was treated to a private reception inside Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island.
He will be expected to visit the All Progress Congress (APC) national leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, billionaire businessman Aliko Dangote, and the Lagos state governor, Akinwumi Ambode friday ( July 31st.)
Akon's visit may not be unconnected with parts of his effort to help bring energy to 600 million Africans, as he recently entered a public-private partnership with various entities across the globe with the promise to help bring energy into millions of homes in Africa.
The ‘Akon Lighting Africa’ project includes installation of solar equipment in households as well as the promotion of their energy sufficiency which will allow millions of Africans access to electricity.
The project plans to start delivering village-level solar power to allow people to enjoy electricity and equally create massive employment.

Top 10 Courses To Study In Nigeria# don'tDULL
#1
Medicine
You're in the science stream and you reveal your choice of institution to your parents, we both know the course they'l advice you to go for MEDICINE. Advice of course for parents that listen and are understanding for other parents, they'll most likely force you till JAMB shows them you don't really like the profession. This reminds me of my highschool days , 70% of the class filled Medicine as their course of study. Chose!!!! Now most of them if not all are studying biochemistry or something related.
#2
Pharmacy
The next on the Top 10 Courses To Study In Nigeria is pharmacy . You couldn't make medicine right, go for the next thing to it "Pharmacy". The prestigious faculty of pharmacy, even more prestigious if you're a pharmacy student in OAU. In case you didn't know, OAU is actually the first university in Nigeria to have pharmacy as a faculty of it's own. So Pharmacy!! as NO 2
#3
Law
Yes! The prestigious and proud law students of Nigeria. This doesn't even require your parents, Once you're in the art class the first thing you fill in as your desired course of study is Law!!!.. I don't really blame they have the most beautiful girls. I don't know about your school but in OAU here? believe me i once went for a class very early so i could see Law chicks troop out in their black and white and their short skirts.. (Hope my mum isn't reading this lol.. mum am facing my Education ooh !!) So Law as NO 3.
#4
Electrical Electronics
Meet the king of the technology faculty, Elect Elect is actually a very cool course to study and they have the most intellectual students. I respect the students of the department but hey don't get me wrong, I'm a computer with Economics Student. Yeah that's right, I'm a double honour student, i have every reason to be proud *lol* . I just like elect cause you can really diversify. In elect i've met bad ass programmers, even more bad ass than programmers in my department. No 4 goes to Elect then
#5
Architecture
I for one am a great fan of this course. For now lets pretend the course isn't one of the most stressful courses you can ever choose to study, department is DOPE. Once you're good you're GOOD! and they're probably the students with one of the highest chances of getting a job in this country with an outrageous number of unemployed. They are still the fewest, that's why i don't still understand how they throw the best parties in OAU. NO 5 goes to archi.
#6
Computer Science & Engineering
Ok so you might feel i'm biased about putting computer here just because am a student of the AMAZING department but NO. Computer Science & Engineering is actually one of the best courses a tech student could choose to study. Let's face it, the world becoming more and more digital everyday. Gone are the days i have to use cash to buy food. Now with just a Sanwo card in ife here i can buy a lovely meal, now who do you think controls the future. so number 6 goes to the Computer students
#7
Nursing
Nursing definitely has to be on the list, without the help of the nurses where would the doctors before. If you argue otherwise, you definitely haven't experienced what happens to patients when the nurses in a hospital embark on a strike. Well i know what happens and the doctors would tell you they can't do it alone. So Nursing NO 7
#8
Mechanical Engineering
Some people would disagree on the ranking of Mech Engin on this list because Mechanical Engineering isn't just hard to get when trying to get into an institution but it is also very hard to study but the reason i kept it on NO 10 is because it isn't an independent course. How many Mechanical Engineering students have you met that finished school and they decide to Work on their own? Most if not all of them begin searching for Jobs and lets be sincere it's not easy to come across job opportunities these days. So Mechanical Engineering Wins slot NO 8
#9
Accounting
So this is like the first commercial course to make the list and No am not being Biased, in fact i felt very reluctant to add it to the list. The reason i added it is because that's the first course that comes to commercial students minds when it's time to pack their things to the Higher Institution. Before accounting students stone me to death, ask yourselves this question how many of you can be self established successfully without a great amount Capital.
#10
Agriculture
The last on the list is the whole faculty of agric. The reason agric is on No 10 is because of the ease with which students can get into the faculty. Soil Science, Animal Science, Agric Econs but when you look at it from the productive aspect of it and the self Establishment capabilities, agric is really an amazing course to study. There you have it, Nigeria's top 10 courses. If you feel otherwise about the other of the ranking , You can drop your thought in the comment section.
RuggedMan got IG on fire earlier. TF?!
But the trend at which our Nollywood Industry and Mainstream Music Artistes promotes homosexuality in their videos is alarming, i don't know the job of our censor board, it's when people are tired of listening to a song,that's when they will ban the song.

UNIBEN Students banned from using Earphones ff death! MEHNn
Nigerian boy Scores 5.0 GPA In Russia, sets that record! BAM!
Olalusi, who was the best graduating student in the whole Russian Federation in 2013, studied in RNRMU under the Russia-Nigeria Bilateral Education Agreement.
Speaking at the event, Dr MacJohn Nwaobiala, the Permanent Secretary in the ministry said a lot of Nigerian students were brilliant but Olalusi was a genius.
He said Olalusi had become an ambassador not only to the ministry but to Nigeria and Russia.
“We have to search the Guinness Book of Records for anybody who has achieved 5.0 in a university. It is curious and strange that all those that evaluated his performance could not find reason to reduce a point from him.
“You should be the ambassador of the Federal Scholarship Board, Ministry of Education, Nigeria and the Russian Federation.
“I look forward to the day you will stand before the President to receive your honour. We have recommendations to that effect, ’’ Nwaobiala said.
He then urged Olalusi to continue to be a role model to young Nigerians and also called on him to explore opportunities in post graduate research.
In her speech, Mrs Ifeoma Agunwa, the Director, Federal Scholarship Board, said Olalusi made 5.0 GPA in all the courses he took in the seven years he studied Medicine in Russia.
She said “Olalusi never had a 4.99 GPA. Even in the Russian language class, he did not fall below 5.0.”
In her citation on Olalusi, Agunwa said he ranked as one of the best students in the faculty which handed him a place in RNRMU’s Hall of fame for academic excellence.
She said that Olalusi had registered with the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria and had the compulsory one-year housemanship training at State Specialist Hospital, Akure, Ondo State.
According to her, he is presently going through the compulsory National Youth Service scheme in Rivers.
Mr Artem Romanov, who represented the Russian Embassy, said that Olalusi’s feat was very significant for everybody in Russia.
Romanov said “Nigeria is blessed with abundant human potential which is officially acknowledged in Russia.
“It has been acknowledged in the Russian Ministry of Education that Nigerians have a lot of exceptional talents. Genetically, Nigerians grasp knowledge easily.
“Olalusi is a hardworking person. It is not easy to achieve such in Russia; it goes with talent and hard work.
“I urge you to engage your knowledge in the development of your father land.”
While showing his appreciation, Olalusi thanked God for his rare feat and also commended the Federal Government and the Scholarship Board for the opportunity given to young Nigerians to distinguish themselves.
Mr Olarewaju Olalusi, the father of Olalusi, said that his son’s achievement was as a result of hard work.
Olalusi said his son did not attend high class schools but normal public schools which spoke volumes of the standard of education in Nigeria.
He then urged parents to monitor their wards closely and make sure they were not distracted from their studies.
Hahaha! Doctors and their findings ehnnn
BLEACHING and AGEING

Kissing – Now The Leading Cause Of Head And Neck Cancer. WAT?!
Ladies and gentlemen, lovers and spouses, i bring to y’all somewhat seems to be sad news for your pleasurable desires. Y’all know how you use Kissing for foreplay and show affection towards your lovers ? Well, new research claims that Kissing has overtaken smoking and drinking as the leading risk factor for having head and neck cancers.
The very popular and most exciting, French kiss, is said to be able to pass on human papilloma virus (HPV). Head of Maxillofacial and Head and neck Surgery at the Royal Darwin Hospital, Dr Mahiban Thomas, said the virus was responsible for 70% of head and neck cancer CASES.
Speaking with Daily Mail Australia, Dr Thomas said, if you became infected by HPV in the oropharynx, your risk of developing head and neck cancer was 250 times higher than that of someone without the virus.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said studies suggest Oral HPV could be passed on during oral sex or open-mouthed or ‘French’ kissing, and about 7% of people have oral HPV, but only 1% of people have the type of oral HPV that is found in oropharyngeal cancers.
Dr Thomas said recent studies suggested even engaging in ‘petting’ without sexual interaction could transfer HPV.
Well...This babe claims she has the tiniest waist and biggest bum in Lag.
FG Reverses JAMB's Policies On Admission!!!*hmmm
The policy had been trailed by protests in parts of the country.
The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Mr.MacJohn Nwaobiala, disclosed this to State House correspondents on Tuesday after briefing President Muhammadu Buhari of his ministry's activities and challenges at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
JAMB had at its 2015 Combined Policy Meeting adopted the policy.
Protests started at the University of Lagos when the institution's authorities announced that only candidates whose names were officially forwarded by JAMB would be eligible to participate in this year’s UNILAG Post-UTME.

Gov. Ambode gets down to rescue accident victim *REALLY?!
The victim, Miss Anukam Angela, who was driving alone in a wine Toyota Corolla with number plate EKY 415 CG, at about 8.15am, lost control and rammed into the median of the road along Osborne Road, Ikoyi, before the vehicle somersaulted.
Ambode, who was heading to the office through the direction before the incident occurred, ordered his convoy to stop at the scene so as to enable him to assess the situation as well as help rescue the passengers.
The governor instructed the ambulance attached to his convoy to convey the victim, who was in a state of shock, and could barely move or talk, to the Lagos Island General Hospital for treatment.
Angela’s sister, Amaka, who was contacted shortly after the crash, said she was treated for minor injuries free and discharged on the order of the governor.
She said the ambulance also conveyed her sister back to her residence at 3, Efosa Ehiedu Close, off Modupe Thomas Estate, Ajah, while the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority assisted in towing the vehicle away from the roadside to prevent traffic gridlock.
The Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr. Habib Aruna, said, “What the governor has done is typical of him. It is indeed a demonstration of his concern to the well-being of every resident and Miss Angela is not an exception.
“He has also, with this act, shown his commitment to an all inclusive approach in protecting the lives and property of citizens in the state.”
