Nigeria’s public education system is fraught with problems of incessant strike actions, dilapidating – sometimes inexistent structures, outdated curriculum, and most often uncommitted teachers and sparse facilities. Hence, it is understandable that those who can afford it, prefer to send their children, dependents, and wards to privately owned universities, where the situation is somewhat bright and much more better. Here are the most expensive universities in Nigeria, as compiled by  TheCable Lifestyle . Fees differ from course to course and are subject to change annually by each institution. Babcock University The Seventh Day Adventist institution has its fees ranging from N600,000 to N3,000,000. The tuition fee is inclusive of accommodation and feeding. American University of Nigeria (ABTI) The university located in Yola, the capital of Adamawa has its fees at around N1,400,000. ABTI is owned by Atiku Abubakar, former vice president of Nigeria.

CBN Building The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has donated a two-storey administrative block of N999 million to the Cross River University of Technology (CRUTECH) under its Education Intervention Programme. Prof. Anthony Owan-Enoh, the Vice-Chancellor of the university, said this at newsmen conference shortly after receiving the keys to the building from the CBN on Monday in Calabar. Owan-Enoh said that the cost of the project, which the university gave to the CBN was over-shot as the furniture and installation of air-conditioning in the administrative building were removed from the budget. He said that the initial plan was to include the Phase Two of the project, which is building of the Senate Chambers of the university. “As a university, our target is to see how we can get across to the CBN governor to formally plead that the second phase be made a reality and the furniture that was removed in the administrative building be installed. “The cost of this building is N999 million....

You may think your doing your body a great deed by downing a cup of joe each morning before work, but in actuality you’re causing extreme harm to your digestive system. When drinking coffee with no food in your body, hydrochloric acid is released inside of your digestive tract. This is why experts say you should NEVER drink a cup first thing in the morning. You might have even felt bloating or even vomited when drinking coffee at the crack of dawn, and this is because of the excess acid which is released. It’s recommended to wait an hour after you’ve waken up to begin your morning ritual! And if you can’t wait until eating, you can add milk or butter into your coffee to ensure you’re consuming dairy vitamins at the same time.  Attend Professional Blogging And Mobile Money Training This Saturday And Get Your Own Blog FREE Get your own premium blog like www.obeens.blogspot.com for N10,000 or www.philipobin.com for N50,000 in 24hrs.

We’re faced with the same dilemma, today, that people have struggled with for years: how do we fit all the tasks we have to complete into our day? No matter how much we have to do, we should still try our best to complete it all in one day, even if it seems impossible. We all know how great it feels to get everything done. So how do we do that? It’s an age old question, and it affects us all. Between our careers, family, daily chores and personal interests we can often run out of hours in a single day, forcing us to push some tasks to the following day– It doesn’t have to be that way. There are hundreds of techniques to better manage ones time. Together with research, and years of practice, I’ve found the following techniques to be the most productive. 1. NEVER TOUCH THINGS TWICE Something many of us have a habit of doing, is leaving tasks to a later time, even when we may have everything we need to complete the task right in front of us. This is such a time waster, and alm...

HUSBANDS AND WIVES, DON'T PROLONG YOUR QUARRELS. Yesterday, I went to interview an Imam He came three hours late to his mosque venue of our meeting and I was a bit angry. But when he explained what kept him, not only did I forgive him quickly and learned some lessons, but I decided to share this with you so that some of us could learn. Husbands and wives should learn how to settle their quarrels without delay. I have seen situations where couples allow simple disagreement to fester for days. Husband is silently hurting, expecting the wife to speak to him first. Same for the wife, hurting and expecting the husband to play the man. The waiting game leads from one thing to the other. If you are at this level of matrimony, please read this. You might have a reason to call your spouse and together take an oath that "OUR QUARREL WOULD NOT LAST BEYOND THAT MOMENT." The story was told by a man of God: Husband and his wife had a domestic disagreement one morning. The ma...
