This adjustment increases the state's minimum wage and aligns with the ongoing national dialogue and state-level efforts to review minimum wages.

The differences between School of Nursing, College of Nursing and University Nursing

The differences between School of Nursing, College of Nursing and University Nursing

1. School of Nursing

๐Ÿ“ŒIt is a 3 year basic nursing program. Where you acquire only RN license plus robust clinical experience.

๐Ÿ“ŒIt's considered an ND program.

๐Ÿ“Œ You need only an O'level in science subjects to be able to purchase entrance/ application form.

๐Ÿ“Œ After you pass your school of choice entrance exam and given admission, you're taught for six months after which, you sit for an exam called Preliminary Training School (PTS).

๐Ÿ“Œ Your performance on the PTS exam determines whether or not you'll continue the nursing education. i.e; if you fail, you fail out. If you pass, you pass in and can be called a nursing student.

2. College of Nursing

๐Ÿ“Œ It's a 4year nursing education where you acquire an RN license, RM or RPHN license plus a robust clinical experience during your years in school.

๐Ÿ“ŒThe college of nursing is considered as HND

๐Ÿ“Œ You'll need an O'level in science subjects and a recent jamb score of about 150 and above to be able purchase an entrance/application form.

๐Ÿ“ŒIf you pass the entrance exam, you'll be admitted into the school.

(Not sure if PTS is done here).

3. University Nursing

๐Ÿ“Œ It's a 5 year nursing education program.

๐Ÿ“Œ Upon completing 5years education, you can acquire RN, RM, RPHN license, BNSC degree and a robust clinical experience too.

๐Ÿ“Œ You'll need an O'level in basic science subjects, a recent jamb score of 200 and above, to be able to buy postume form.

๐Ÿ“Œ Write and pass postume with a very high score and your name gets published in the admission list.

Note: none of these schools are cheap to train in.

๐Ÿ“ŒWhether school of nursing, college or university, they must and should be accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery council of Nigeria NMCN.

Be sure that that the school you intend to apply to should be a recognized school. It doesn't matter if it's a private, state or federal owned school.

Kindly shรฆre and good luck on your nursing education pursuit.

JAMB RESCCHEDLED MOP-UP UTME

JAMB has scheduled the mop-up UTME exam for Monday, May 26, 2025, for more than 12000 candidates who were unable to take the main examination for various reasons.

All candidates in this group are required to reprint their examination slip beginning on May 22, 2025.

Note: Rescheduling will only apply to eligible candidates.

Proactive Leadership in Time of Turbulence: In Defense of Prof. Ishaq Oloyede's Integrity

Proactive Leadership in Time of Turbulence: In Defense of Prof. Ishaq Oloyede's Integrity

An iconic activist and former First Lady of the United States of America, Eleanor Roosevelt said once: "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people." Beautiful words that summarize those calling for Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to resign.

Looking back, the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) was seriously plagued by technical problems that disrupted the performance of the majority of candidates. Because of impromptu complaints, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, Registrar, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), immediately ordered an in-depth probe by independent experts to determine and fix the issues.

Facts were finally laid bare at the end of the probe. The inquiry in contrast to what obtains in Nigeria was professional, unbiased, prompt and independent. In Abuja in a media briefing, Prof. Oloyede took responsibility for the administrative errors, stating, "What ought to have been a moment of happiness has been altered as a result of one or two mistakes." His emotional apology, delivered with obvious regret, reflected his commitment to values of leadership that include responsibility, integrity, transparency and accountability. Rather than leaving it to ego or bureaucratic sloth of an ordinary public office-holder, he liked to meet the challenges head-on, demonstrating a very high level of integrity in public life.

The technical issues based on inquiry were faced by 379,997 candidates in 157 centers across Lagos State and the South-East states of Abia, Enugu, Imo, Ebonyi, and Anambra. JAMB's swift response, particularly, inquiry into the matter, listing the affected candidates, and rescheduling retakes from May 16–19—is a demonstration of dedication to equity and transparency in the highly compromised and bureaucratic environment.

In a nation aspiring to institutional integrity, such leaders as Prof. Oloyede must be applauded and praised, not insulted and condemned. His move sets a precedent for accountability and reform, virtues necessary for national advancement. Requiring his resignation by a panel of Fifth columnists and pseudo-perfectionists would not only punish openness but also discourage future leaders from taking responsibility for institutional failures.

As Prof. Oloyede put it so pithily and patriotically, "I apologise for the trauma caused to the candidates." This incident in our national history is a test of accountability in leadership. As John C. Maxwell used to say, "A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way." Prof. Oloyede is a perfect example of this philosophy, showing that leadership is not about being error-free, but about having the guts to face and correct them.

I really sympathize with those demanding the resignation of a public official over procedural mistakes that were patently outside the agency's jurisdiction. Such failures, as unfortunate as they are, occur daily in institutions and systems all over the world. Ironically, most of these self-proclaimed perfectionists cannot even keep a simple WhatsApp group or have a simple family meeting without conflict or chaos. Let us not be deceived, the public is much smarter than they believe. There is more to the appeal. We are all not fools.

JAMB SET CUT OFF FOR 2024 ADMISSION

 JUST in:

JAMB SET CUT OFF FOR 2024 ADMISSION PROCESS 


The JAMB cut off Mark 2024 is the minimum score a candidate must have in the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to qualify to participate in post-UTME.


The cut off mark is a requirement for admission into Federal Universities, State Universities, Polytechnics, and Colleges of Education for the 2024/2025 Academic Session.


The admissions body has announced the official JAMB cut-off mark for admissions into various tertiary institutions in the country.


JAMB pegged a minimum of 160 marks for admission into the university, with 120 and 100 marks set for admission into Colleges of Education and Innovative Institutions.


The JAMB cut-off mark

The cut-off-mark principle is a guideline for JAMB in regulating the admission procedures on tertiary institutions. The cut-off mark must be met by the candidates before they can be able to apply for post Unified Tertiary Matriculation examination (UTME).


It serves as a benchmark set by JAMB in collaboration with educational authorities to regulate the admission process and ensure fairness.


The JAMB cut off mark 2024 is a minimum for all schools, thus allowing universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education to set new (higher) cut-off marks for their.


This is the reason why certain universities take 200 as their JAMB cut off mark, after JAMB has pegged it as 160.


Also, some universities may set their cut-off marks at 180, as they have done in the past. The primary thing is that their cut-off marks must not be set below jamb marks.


JAMB Cut Off Mark 2024/2025 Academic Session

Here are the JAMB cut-off marks for 2024 admission:


1. Federal Universities – 160

2. State Universities – 160

3. Private Universities – 160

4. Polytechnics – 120

5. College Of Education – 100

Learn To Pay Attention: Professor and Ghana Medical Student

 |First year University of Ghana medical students were attending their 1st Anatomy Class. They all gathered around the table and there was a real dead body on the table.


The Professor, Mwangi started the class by telling them two important qualities of a DOCTOR. He said, "The 1st is that never be DISGUSTED about anything in the body." For example, he inserted his FINGER in the dead body's ANUS & put the finger in his own mouth & TASTED it.


Then he told the students to do what he did. The students hesitated for several minutes, but eventually everyone inserted their fingers in the body's ANUS & tasted it. When everyone finished tasting their fingers, they were all Frowning...


Then the professor looked at them & said: "The most important 2nd Quality is "Observation". 


I inserted my MIDDLE finger but tasted the 2nd finger... Now learn to pay attention!!

Meet Nigerian Professor Who Drove Peugeot 504 From London To Kano In 24 days

 Meet Nigerian Professor Who Drove Peugeot 504 From London To Kano In 24 days

Professor Aminu Mohammed Dorayi is a renowned educationist and adventurer that drove from London to Kano with his car.


The elder statesman is a Record-breaker, who broke a world record by driving his Peugeot 504 over a distance of about 4,000miles, in 24 days.


Prof Dorayi is a distinguished Abusite (Ahmadu Bello University) and respected professor of Chemistry. He doubled as a former president of the ABU Students Union Government (SUG) for 1966/1967. Dorayi set up the Sharada Industrial Estate in Kano. He is also the first to organize trade fair in Nigeria.


He is called The Adventurous Chemist because of his passion for adventure. While in the UK, his journey was inspired by several adventure books he had read. For instance, he read about the Marcopolos, the Mungo Parks, these adventurous stories fascinated him.


Dorayi, therefore proceded to make a record-breaking trip by driving his Peugeot 504 over a distance of about 4,000miles in 24 days.


According to the elder statesman, “England is an Island. So when you reach Southampton you have to take a boat, you and your car, to Calais, France. I drove through Paris and so on through Madrid, Gibraltar. So when you reach Gibraltar, you reach the Mediterranean Sea, where you also take a ferry to Algeria.


"From there you enter the road all through, though there is no road, in the desert, you’re guided by your compass, your map.”


Speaking further on the trip, Prof disclosed that ”I became very keen during my PhD in the US. I had a Volkswagen which I bought for about 600 dollars at that time. I used it to drive across the desert over there.” He added that he is highly adventurous, that is why even his autobiography is titled, The Adventurous Chemist.


Dorayi disclosed that as he bought the Peugeot 504 for 1000 pounds and hit the road immediately.


He said, ”I was assisted by the British Automobile Association (AA). They gave me the guidelines, the map, the route. They told me what to do in crossing the desert, and what not to do. So, I was quite prepared.


Speaking of his preparedness, Doriya said, ”Since I went to secondary technical school, I was technically inclined and I could service my car. I came from a technical background. Going back to Zango in Kano and hanging out with friends, they taught me confidence. So this thing has been in me for years. I enjoyed reading about trans-Sahara.


In his encounter, Doriya noted that ”There was a place I passed in Algeria, and the day I arrived, it was raining heavily. Little children of 13 years and below were running helter-skelter and crying. When I asked the elders why they said those children had never seen rain before. No rain for 14 years, so they thought heaven was falling. They had to be counselled by their elders.”

๐Ÿšจ|๐Ÿ”ตASUU Chairman To NIGERIANS (8:00am)

 SUU Chairman To NIGERIANS (8:00am)



“At no time in the history of Nigeria has a government tended to have the destruction of university education as a policy as we have witnessed recently when the government triggered our Union into strikes.


This government did that only to turn round to visit the inconceivably asphyxiating forms of cruelty on its membership which resulted in deaths, ill health, acute starvation and in the ongoing mass exodus of our members from the system.


“While other nations have been devoting up to 25% or more of their annual budgetary allocations to education".


At no time in the life of this administration has the government gone up to 8%. Indeed, for much of the period of this regime, education, especially at the tertiary level, has been on oxygen merely gasping for breath.
