 EPL MAKES A TRIUMPHANT      RETURN TOMORROW
The English Premier League is here again with its thrills, quivers and quakes, but have you any idea, even the slightest of it, of how your team will fare? The only thing i know is that-
 The wait is tired of waiting
Braggers have returned with their bragging right 
While grabbers are poised to grab
Wailers in high and low places ready to wail 
Many will cry Wolf, 
A handful will smell a rat
Even as the underdogs are inclined to carryover their fit
The reoccurring decimal of the English League
Unlike Godot, he's here in the long run
To put enmity among friends
And friendship among enemies
Madness of the 21st century
Hunting seriously for scapegoats
Some in cash, others in kind

   POGBA DEALT A UNITED BLOW

Paul Pogba, Manunited's record signing will take no part in United's opener on Sunday. United will kickoff the 2016-2017 Premier league season on Sunday against Bournemouth. The away team will be without the world's most expensive player as a result of a carryover suspension from his former club juventus. Pogba is said to have received two yellow cards prior to his last matches in the club. European clubs recognize and as well as uphold the suspension of any player irrespective of the fact that he has changed club and country. Teaming United's fans who are hoping to see their much priced asset will have to wait a little bit to see him don the Red devil's jersey.



Today marks the death of one the finest footballers to have come out the shores of this country full of bundles of talents. Samuel Okwaraji died on the 12th of August1989 while carrying out his national duties. He slumped and died while playing on a world cup quaifier in lagos. May his soul continue to rest in peace

It is therefore recommendable to choose those positions that will allow the sperm penetrate the cervix easily. Pictures of some the best positions will follow suit, so stay glued

NATIONAL UNIVERSITYS' COMMISSION (NUC) TALKS TOUGH... If you are studying in any of the listed universities that offer any of the courses that failed accreditation,  you are on the verge of studying in futility.   (SEE LIST)

List of courses that have not been accredited in Nigerian universities have been released – A certificate issued for those courses will be considered void

– The university of Abuja has the highest number of unaccredited courses The National Universities Commission (NUC) has released a list of some courses that have not been accredited.

The unaccredited courses pose serious danger to students who study them as the certificates issued by these universities for the courses will not be officially recognised.

Premium Times reports that 2016 accreditation status report indicated that these unaccredited courses were taught in 37 out of 143 universities in the country. The Quality Assurance Department of the NUC is in charge of accrediting courses in the universities.

The NUC insists that for a course to be accredited, it must meet the Benchmark Minimum Academic Standards (BMAS) that has been stipulated by the commission. Some of the requirements include: “qualified faculty members, good learning environment and adequate teaching materials – equipment, books and journals”.

According to the NUC, accreditation is necessary to ensure “employers and other members of the community that Nigerian graduates of all academic programmes have attained an acceptable level of competency in their areas of specialization.” It also says it is also important to certify courses to assure “the international community that the programmes offered in Nigerian Universities are of high standards and that graduates of the institutions are adequate for employment and further studies.”

According to the commission, the pre-accreditation process include “drawing up a list of academic programmes to be certified, compilation of list of panel chairmen/members, time-tabling, budgeting and organizing the accreditation coordination meeting for panel chairmen and members in a simulation workshop.”

The post-accreditation activities include “analyzing accreditation reports (technical and administrative), ranking of programmes and universities based on their accreditation status, publishing of accreditation status of programmes, issuance of certificates to programmes that earned Full and Interim accreditation results.”

According to Premium Times, 13 federal universities, 16 state universities and eight private universities were running courses that had not been accredited. Some of the high profile institutions include University of Nigeria, Nsukka; University of Benin, University of Jos, University of Calabar. The biggest casualty seems to be the University of Abuja which has 15 of its courses, including Law, unaccredited.
