  One of the presidential candidates, Peter Obi, who happened to be in the Labor party has thanked his Ekiti Obidients while sharing some photos of his time there. Recall that the term obidients is used to describe the followers of Peter Obi around the nation and possibly the world at large. Peter Obi made his thank-you message public on his Facebook social media page and it gathered a lot of attention from the public. “Thank you Ekiti Obidients for an awesome outing, and show of love. I wish to reiterate my very special thanks to Ewi of Ado-Ekiti, Oba Adeyemo Adejugbe, and his council of chefs, Afe Babalola (SAN), the Management of Afe Babalola University Ekiti” - Peter Obi wrote. The presidential candidate concluded by saying there is hope for a new Nigeria. He also said a national rebirth is possible. Do you know that the first photo he shared displayed the presidential candidate and the Ewi of Ado Ekiti, Oba Adeyemo Adejugbe? They were seen side by side and also with some oth...

  Asides your West African Examinations Council Result, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board Results, and your Post Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations Result, there are two other important documents that you should make available before pursuing your university admission process. Every university, be it state or federal does ask of these documents and it is a compulsory criterion before being matriculated into a particular university. At this juncture, the two documents are as follows: The Local Government Identification Letter: Stating your origin or the place you come from is not fully a proof that you actually come from that place. The school truly wants to know if you are a true descendant of that local government that you said you come from. And to ascertain this, they would surely request for a local government identification letter. Now, this letter is gotten from the local government you come from, and it could take days, and sometimes weeks to get this letter....

Even with the freedom that comes with the holiday period, I am of the opinion that there are some disgusting things that a student should not spend his or her holiday doing. These things could really damage the academic life of the student as well as his or her personal development, and possibly his or her future career. Therefore, I advice all students to stay away from them and also try to practice good things during the holiday session. At this juncture, the two things you shouldn' t spend your holiday doing as a student are: Being Lazy: A person being on a holiday doesn' t mean that the person should automatically become lazy. The holiday time is a time for metal, physical, and personal refreshment. As a student, you shouldn' t spend your time sitting on a couch all day, sleeping unnecessarily, playing too much games, and even watching too many movies, all of which are signs of laziness. Every time in your life (including that of your holiday) is very important, and the...

  Your hostel preparation is an important step in your academic journey for a particular semester. It is one of the defining factors of success in any semester. Therefore it should be taken seriously and passionately. To do this, I have come up with some things that you have to get ready before going to the hostel. These things would help you have a successful and smooth semester ahead. Without further ado, they are as follows: Your Hostel Resolution: One of the important things you should get ready before going to the hostel is your hostel resolution. Your hostel resolution contains what you want to do when you get to the hostel, how you want to behave, the kinds of friends you want to keep, how you want to read your books, and even how you want to relate with people. Having the right hostel resolution can ensure success because the person would be able to make the right choices and decisions that would lead him or her there. Therefore, before going to the hostel, take out your ti...

  Occasions are good. You' d practically find no one who would not love one kind of gathering or the other. Even with this love and desire for these occasions, I truly stand to tell you that there are some of them that you should just let go. In other words, I' m saying that it' s not all occasions that you should attend. You may be asking of the reason why, and so I' m going to tell it to you. Without further ado, they are as follows: Distraction While Reading: I recently wrote an article where I explained how a wandering mind can distract you while reading. The thing about this issue is that most of the memories and thoughts that make the mind wander are those of the occasions that we have attended in the past. The ones that would always want to come out are those ones that we may have placed strong attachment too, and they may be good or bad. When this happens, opening a book may be like a waste of time because the person' s mind would wander to the several and m...

  Academic studying is really fun, but it could even be better when you do it with these two things that I have described as companions in this article. These two things would help you study better and they' ll also help you retain the information that you have tried to put in your brain while studying. Without further ado, they are as follows: Your Academic Study Note: It is one nice thing to read something and another lovely thing to write it down by memory that which has been read. But this is actually where the tricky part comes in. However, the study notes can help you overcome this. They' ll duly help you keep the important points that you have read in paper and in your memory if you previously wrote it by heart. Study notes should be given to each and every course that you offer for a particular semester so as to avoid mixing them up. It must not be a very big note. It should be something light and handy. While using it, you could write down scientific formulas if you ar...

The Rivers State University has concluded their second semester for the two thousand and twenty two/ two thousand and twenty three session, and they are now in their holiday session. Students as well as the parents and guardians ate expected to prepare for the up and coming session that would start in January two thousand and twenty three. On the side of the parents/guardians, I feel that the important preparation they should make before the resumption of the school for the new session is a strong and accurate plan of how to pay the school fees of their wards before the time of the school fees drive would occur. The university recently took a new leave of disallowing any student who has not paid the school fees into the examination hall. From, the looks of things, I believe that this trend may continue in the subsequent years. Therefore I urge any parent whose ward (s) attend the Rivers State University to start making arrangements for the school fees before hand so that the child does...

Safety is an important part of being in the hostel Not only should students learn in a comfortable environment, but they should also learn in a safe environment too. However, safety on campus is not the only responsibility of the security agencies on the same. The students also have a role to play when it comes to the security of their lives and properties on campus.  Hence, there are some safety tips which students in the campus hostels should practice to ensure their safety and possibly the safety of others. These safety tips are really easy to do. I mean! They don’t involve any rigorous work or money or even involving anyone to do them. Without further ado, they are as follows: Well, the first safety tip is that you should never share the keys to your hostel locker or room with anyone no matter how well you think you trust them. This way, you’d ensure that your items are kept safe. Also, contamination of delicate items such as food, underwear and lots more would be greatly avo...

The university of Lagos has truly produced many successful people in the nation today. Two of those successful people are Professor Daniel Olukoya and Pastor Enoch Adeboye. You’d know a little about these people and the great impact they have made years after graduating from the university of Lagos after reading this article. Without further ado, let’s dive into the activity: Professor Daniel Olukoya: Professor Daniel Olukoya is the general overseer of the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries – a worldwide ministry that has been known for immense prayers and preaching of the word of God. Prof Olukoya graduated from the university of Lagos in nineteen eighty with a first class honors in microbiology. Years after that, he made a name after answering the call of God in his life and he has also been an impact to thousands of people in the world. This man of God has always demonstrated the fact that hard work pays, and this has led many people to work hard and become successful in...

It was revealed in November, two thousand and twenty two that there are faculties in the Rivers State university that would be transferred to the new RSU building that has been constructed in Ahoda local government of Rivers State. These faculties are the faculties of humanities and the faculties of social sciences. Despite the full relocation of the students of these faculties, I am of the opinion that they would still come back to the main campus for these two purposes. These three purposes do not have anything to do with learning but without them, a student may rather become an incomplete Alumini of the Rivers State University. Without further ado, they are as follows: Matriculation Ceremony: The matriculation ceremony of RSU is mostly done in school’s convocation arena that is located in the main campus. Every student, irrespective of department or faculty, is expected to be there for this ceremony as this is where they would be present before the university authority and form...

Very soon, the portal for the Chevron scholarship scheme would be open. The question is are you prepared to apply for it? There are certain requirements that you must meet before applying for this scholarship. Therefore, I urge you to tackle them now so that your application process would be smooth and hopefully successful. So what are the requirements? Well, the first requirement is that you must provide your JAMB admission letter stating your admission. This can be gotten from your JAMB portal after you have successfully accepted the offer of admission given to you by your university. As a second requirement, you must provide your passport photograph. This passport photograph should duly cover and capture your face. Even though it wasn’t stated, I am of the opinion that it should be at most three months old, and it should be done on either a red or white background because these are official color backgrounds for passports. As a third point, you must provide your school identit...
