The following are need for admission registration and commencement of acceptance fee which indicates that you have been officially accepted as a student in the Ebonyi state university (EBSU)

The Following Are Required Of Successful Candidates into Ebonyi State University

INVESTING IN YOURSELF: THE FOREMOST INVESTMENT

If you see a nice plot of land for sale and at the same time your child got admission and is about to pay his fees; which would you do, buy the land or pay for your child’s fee, assuming the amount of money you have can only do one of the two options? I guess many people will go for the training of their child. If you are in the category of people that went for the school fee payment, it means that you unconsciously believe in the fact that investing in human beings is the best investment you can always do.

Educating yourself and your dependents is the best investment choice you can always make, but the problem is that people mistake education to mean just University Degrees. If you check the dictionary meaning of the word education, you will discover that it emphasizes acquisition of knowledge through learning and experience, and not about acquiring University degrees.

If you take time to go through the profiles of many successful people, you will discover that they were not really the most educated; their success did not come as a result of their certificates. If success was measured according to the level of your certificate, then professors would be the most successful. I am by no means trying to say that acquisition of certificate is useless. Far from it! I am merely advocating for the shifting of the emphasis from acquisition of certificates to acquisition of knowledge.

Like one of my mentors will always tell me, “the investment is not the problem, but you are the problem”. So many businesses fail not because the business is not profitable, but because the owners are not knowledgeable enough to run it.

HOW TO DISCOVER GOOD BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES AROUND YOU

In the last edition, I talked about how and why you need to start a business alongside your current job. If you missed it, I advise you pick up the last edition of Citizen’s Advocate and read it. You will find it interesting, educating and inspiring. In this edition, I shall be talking about the sine qua non of starting a business; how to discover good business opportunities around you.

One of the foremost businessmen in Nigeria, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu would say: “A good businessman must have nose for business the same way a journalist has nose for news. Once your eyes, ears, nose, heart and brain are trained on business, you sniff business opportunities everywhere.”  This means that you first need to identify a viable business opportunity before you can engage in business.

SIMPLE STRATEGIES TO SAVE MORE AS TO INVEST MORE

Saving is a skill which many want to learn, but only few succeed at it. Personally, I previously found it very difficult to save. I know I was making money, but I was not having money. It gave me great concern, coupled with the fact that I cannot get ahead in life financially if I cannot save part of what you earn. This prompted me to learn the art of saving. Thankfully, with active discipline, I achieved it. It is now part of me and I can comfortably save any amount I wish for any purpose without affecting my lifestyle. Saving is a habit, and like any habit, it can be learnt by diligently practicing it.

If you have made up your mind that you will have to be saving money due to the embedded benefits, the first thing you have to do is to analyze your monthly income and expenses to know where your sweat is going to. If you have a leaking drum, no matter the quantity of water you pour into it, it must leak away. So the best you can do is to patch the leakage before you begin to pour water into it. The same is applicable to saving money. If you do not know where you are spending your money, you might not know how to curtail your spending and so cannot squeeze out the one you will save. So you have to check how much you make in a month and how much you spend in a month. If your expense is equal to or more than your income, you are ultimately going to retire poor; there is no two ways about it.

13 ARE YOU SURE THAT YOUR BUSINESS IDEA WILL WORK

Last week, I talked about the various techniques you can use to discover viable business opportunities. If you missed that, check the last edition of Citizen’s Advocate. This week, I want to talk about another important aspect of starting a business which is ignored by many: “doing a feasibility study on your new business idea”.

Many good business ideas abound, but not every business idea can work for you. I might be doing very well in a particular business but you may not succeed if you try it. It is the same thing in reverse. After you have discovered what you think is a very good business idea, the next pertinent thing is to check whether the business will be feasible in the area where you want to embark on it. Failure to do this will result in a colossal loss of time and money.

Research has shown that most start-up businesses fold within their first three years of operation. It has also been discovered that most of these business failure can be traced back to neglect of carrying out a feasibility study of their proposed business idea before carrying it out. No matter how small your idea might look or whether you are starting full-time or part-time, it is very important for you to perform a feasibility study on it before committing funds and time into it.

The essence of running a feasibility study is to ensure that your idea will survive in the market and not die like others that have come before it. A thorough feasibility study increases your chances of succeeding in business by exposing the pros and cons of the business before starting.

You can do it yourself or turn to business consultants to help you do it depending on the simplicity or complexity of your idea. In this edition, I will want to teach you how you can carry out an effective feasibility study for your business idea yourself in a very simple manner. Remember, if it looks difficult for you, simply employ the services of a business consultant.

11 WHY AND HOW YOU SHOULD START YOUR OWN BUSINESS

WHY AND HOW YOU SHOULD START YOUR OWN BUSINESS

When you invest in shares, you are just investing in someone else’s business. So when they make profit, they share it with you. Likewise, when you work for someone, you are merely helping the person to grow his business. But what about making profit and owning the whole profit, and having other people work to help you grow your business? This is exactly the reason why starting your own business might be the best decision you can make. It doesn’t matter whether you are a civil servant or private employee, or even an unemployed. What matters is that you can start a business either full time or part time, or directly or indirectly.

Business in our perspective here means any activity that involves exchange of goods and or services for money. The size doesn’t matter. It could be as small as selling your recharge cards to your friends in the office, teaching your colleagues how to operate a computer, or as big as having a pure water production company or manufacturing plant. As long as you make or made money from it, you have just transacted business.

I am working for someone and already earning good money, so why should I bother starting a business? This has been the question lurking the minds of many civil servants. If you read my article on the need for having multiple streams of income, you may have known the need by now. The benefits of starting a business whether full time or part time cannot be overemphasized. Let us look at some of them:

Jega clears air on additional polling units •Threatens to resign if.

The Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Attahiru Jega, on Wednesday, declared that there was no hidden agenda with the creation of the additional 30,000 polling units across the country by the commission.
This is coming just as Jega maintained that he would not hesitate to resign his position as INEC chairman if situations become unbearable as criticism continues to trail the exercise in various quarters.

Russian Soldiers Reveal the Truth Behind Putin's Secret War

Lyudmila Malinina’s voice trembled as she described the secret funeral she witnessed on a recent night in her small town of Sudislavsky in the Kostroma region of central Russia. At about 8pm, a truck parked at the cemetery a few yards away from her wooden house. The truck’s headlights stayed on to illuminate the ground for several men to hurriedly dig the grave, “as if they were thieves hiding something”, Luydmila says.

More neighbours popped out of their windows and doors to watch and discuss the strange scene, wondering why anybody would bury a relative at this hour. Besides, that part of the graveyard was reserved for the deceased in war, as somebody pointed out.

While Nato sat down for a summit to decide what to do about the war in Ukraine, and Vladimir Putin negotiated a ceasefire deal with Kiev, Russian society recoiled from reports about secret funerals of soldiers killed in Ukraine: missing sons, calls from husbands begging their wives to save them from ­battle, bodies with missing limbs arriving in coffins to Nizhny Novgorod, Orenburg, Pskov, Murmansk, Dagestan and other regions of Russia. The death toll for Russian soldiers jumped to more than 200 soldiers in a few days, between August 12th and September 2nd, in a war that was, officially, not happening.

Cameroon blocks Boko Haram incursion

Cameroon said on Monday that its soldiers had killed “more than 100” Boko Haram fighters during an attempted incursion by the Nigeria-based Islamist insurgents, while across the border thousands continued to flee the group's advances.
The Cameroonian army dealt “a severe setback” to Boko Haram during clashes in the north of the country on Saturday, government spokesman Issa Tchiroma Bakary said in a statement read out on state radio.
The statement, which could not be immediately verified, said Boko Haram militants fired two shells on the town of Fotokol in Cameroon's northern tip, on the border with Nigeria.
“There were no casualties reported on the Cameroonian side,” the statement said.
“Our defence forces responded vigorously with mortar fire aimed at the positions held by units of the Boko Haram terrorist group. The Cameroonian response resulted in over 100 deaths among the aggressors.”
The Boko Haram militants were pushed back towards the Nigerian border town of Gamboru Ngala, separated only by a footbridge from Cameroon, which they seized over a week ago.
Meanwhile, panicked residents continued to flee their homes in northeast Nigeria on Monday in

400 under surveillance for Ebola

 

The Nigerian Ministry of Health announced on Monday that 477 people are under surveillance for Ebola in the oil city of Port Harcourt.
Until recently the outbreak in Nigeria was almost completely confined to Lagos, where the first case of Ebola was brought by a Liberian-American, Patrick Sawyer, who died days after arriving in the airport in July.
All the 477 were involved in a chain of contacts that demonstrated how viciously the virus can spread. Before he was hospitalized, Sawyer came in contact with someone. That person traveled to Port Harcourt, where he sought medical treatment from a doctor. The doctor later died from Ebola, requiring authorities to track down everyone with whom he had been in contact.
The worst outbreak of the virus on record has killed more than 2,000 people across Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone and Nigeria, and spread to Senegal. The World Health Organization estimated that 20,000 people could be infected before the crisis ends.

He was attacked on the Mubi battle field in Adamawa State.To prevent an attack on the students, the state government shut the university in Mubi as the insurgents overran Uba, a town five kilometres from Mubi. Other towns taken at the weekend by Boko Haram fighters are Michika and Bazza. Both towns, along with Uba, are in Hong Local Government Area . Security operatives have successfully flushed out Boko Haram insurgents from Bama, the second largest town in Borno State, according to an unnamed government official. The insurgents captured the town last week Monday, forcing the military to declare a total war. Several air strikes were launched in the town, which has a population of over 200,000 people. However, a senior government official toldReutersyesterday that the military has pushed the militants towards Maiduguri, the state capital.

Nollywood Actor sleeps with wifes sister

•‘Her new husband attacked me with machete

ADVERTISEMENT

He wants to use me for money rituals, I’m still young and don’t want to die now.”
These were parts of the statements made by Aminat Bello at the Grade ‘C’ Customary Court, Inalende, Ibadan, Oyo State, while instituting a divorce suit against her husband, Abdulraheem Bello.
Thirty-five-year-old Aminat, a resident of Agbowo area of Ibadan, Oyo State capital, told the court  she got married to Abdulraheem 15 years ago and that their marriage was blessed with four children.
Aminat, who is a  tailor,  further told the court that there had never been any misunderstanding  between her and her husband until recently when one of her brothers-in-law, Isiaka, came to live with them
“When Isiaka came, he began to disturb me, begging me to sleep with him and I told him what he was requesting for was an abomination.
“After he had tried all he could  and failed, he began to call me names. When I could no longer take his insults, I reported him to  my husband. But to my surprise, Abdulraheem started quarelling  with me instead of calling his brother to order.
“Isiaka told my husband that he caught me on many occasions having extra-marital affairs with another man. I told my husband to be wary of his brother so that our marriage would not collapse,” she said.
Aminat also told the court that Abdulraheem used to sleep with her younger sister who was living with them.
According to her, she reported  him to one of his friends, but he denied it and told his friend  he sometimes helped her sister to apply ointment on her body.
Aminat further told the court that Abdulraheem  went to perform some rituals at a cemetery along with his friend who is an alfa, and since them, she had not been  sleeping well.
“When I went to a  prayer house, I was told that my husband was responsible for my predicament and that he, wanted to use me for money rituals.
“I’m tired of my husband, please separate us,” she added.
Reacting to the allegations levelled against him, Abdulraheem, who also lives at Agbowo area, agreed  to  the dissolution of their marriage, but told the court his wife was wayward.
He  told the court how Aminat’s new husband injured him with a machete when he accused him of sleeping with his wife.
“Aminat has moved out of my house and  is now  living very close to her new husband. I’m no longer interested in the marriage,” he said.
Having listened to both parties, the court  president, Mr Ramon Olafenwa, observed that there was no more love  between the two.
Olafenwa, in his judgment,  seperated the couple  and gave  Aminat custody of the four children the marriage produced.

Christ Embassy: CHURCH MEMBERS TESTIFIES

he atmosphere at the church’s service was neither tense nor frigid. Worshippers did all they could to mask the huge controversy that is currently tearing through the very fabrics of what is arguably one of the biggest churches in Africa. It boasts of over 40,000 worshippers cutting across over four countries.

At the church’s Oregun headquarters in Lagos. Saturday Tribune visited Christ Embassy, also known as Believers Love World (BLW), which has a General Overseer, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, whose marriage is at the precipice of collapse.

Worshippers walked in and out of the church at will, while workers went about their assigned roles as if nothing was wrong.

Ex-President Morsy placed behind bars

An Egyptian prosecutor charged ousted President Mohamed Morsy and several of his aides on Saturday with endangering national security by leaking state secrets and sensitive documents to Qatar.

Relations between Qatar, a Gulf Arab state, and Egypt have been tense since mid-2013, when then-Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi toppled Mr. Morsy after mass protests against his rule.

Qatar had supported Mr. Morsy and his Muslim Brotherhood. Security sources said last month that Egypt was investigating Mr. Morsy in connection with documents they said were leaked to Qatar and its Al Jazeera news channel.

MTN TO LAUCH MORE TOWERS

Telecoms service provider, MTN Nigeria, on Thursday reached an agreement in principle with IHS Holding Limited for the transfer of its towers business, comprising of up to 9,151 mobile network towers, to the latter.

MTN disclosed that IHS would have full operational control of the underlying business, while the new towers company would market independent infrastructure sharing services to other mobile operators and Internet Service Providers in the country.
