PORTUGAL CROWNED CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE

All hail the new crown king of Europe!.Portugal came from behind as underdogs of the championship to spoil the party for France on home soil,denying them their third European title and clinching their first ever European championship all thanks to Eder extra time powerful strike.

Eder celebrating after scoring 

This feat was achieved without their captain and talisman Cristiano Ronaldo who was forced out of the game in the first half with a knee injury.France has won the 10 previous meeting between them and Portugal, that makes this win even more memorable for the boys from LISBON.

The game had earlier been billed as a battle between Antoine Greizmann and Ronaldo but the battle ended for Ronaldo after a robust tackle from Dimitri Payet forced him out of play.Ronaldo in tears was stretchered out of the pitch.

Ronaldo was out of the game but the fans couldnt stop chanting his name.With Ronaldo out of the contest,Portugal needed another hero and that hero was found in the goalkeeper Rui Patricio who throughout the game was very consistent in thwarting france.He made alot of saves,saving a couple of fierce shots from Sissoko,who was outstanding throughout the game for france.

Twelve years ago Ronaldo featured in the final of the championship hosted by country at the age of 18years making him the youngest player ever to feature in the finals,that same match made him shade tears as they lost to Greece on home soil.The win is the crowning moment of his career as an international player.

France came into the game as the favorites given the arrays of star they parade and their form so far in the championship.Also giving them an edge over Portugal is the home advantage,with the full support of their teeming fans inside the stade de france.But Portugal  fought hard against all odds to earn the win.

Portugal will forever be grateful for that powerful late strike from Eder that handed them the trophy for the first time ever.

JAMB LATEST ADMISSION MODALITIES

As was announced earlier on Plus-One school portal on www.jamb.gov.ng,the joint admission and matriculation board has finally released the modalities for this years admission process,in 0ther word, the method of admission.We would like to educate the jambites and other DE candidates on how it is done.
This new method uses a point system that is very easy to understand,the whole process is divided into main points as follows:
1.Before a candidate can seat to be considered for the screening,he/she must have been given a provisional admission by jamb.The Jamb admission  checker portal is going to be opened soon for this process ,so all you need now is divine intervention
2.THE POINT SYSTEM:
This is the most critical part of the process.
Jamb provisional admission no longer makes much sense this year,your points tally will determine your faith.The points are evenly spread  out between your O Level and Jamb results to provide a level playing field for all.
In the first case,any candidate who submits only one result which contains his/her relevant subjects already has 10points,the exam could be NECO,WAEC,GCE e.t.c,but any candidate who has 2 sittings only gets 2points.So this implies that aspirants with only one result are at advantage but only just.
The next point grades fall into Olevel grades.Each grade has its equivalent point,A=6,B=4,C=3 marks,so the better your grades the higher your chances .
The next point is UTME scores.Each score range has its equivalent point which can be summarized thus,180-200=20-23marks,200-250=24-33marks,251-300=34-43,300-400=44-60marks.Each categories contains 5 jamb results per point added ,for example candidate with 180-185 gets 20points, a candidate with 186-190 gets 21 points e.t.c.
Points system for DE will be released soon.
3.It then comes down to the fact that fees will still be paid for screening,it depends on the school as well.
4.Catchment and ELDS will still be used .Merit contains 45% of the total candidates for a particular course,catchment contains 35% and ELDS and staff lists contains the rest.
5.Cutoff marks will be released by schools this year in the form of points and not marks.If a school declares its cutoff point mark for medicine as 90points and jamb grants a candidate with 250 a provisional admission but his/her total points falls short of the 90 points,then he/she will lose the admission.so provisional admission is just a step forward to the end and not actually a guarantee for admission.

check the link to download the modalities for screening in all universities www.jamb.gov.ng.
Thank you and Good luck!

WHERE TO INVEST IN NIGERIA

If you are confused about where/how to invest your money in Nigeria then this article is specifically for you.In these article i am going to give you an eye-opener on where/how to invest your money in Nigeria that will earn you a corresponding profit within a given period of time.

1.Agriculture-Agriculture is one sector in the Nigeria economy that has been neglected since oil was discovered.But there  has been a great revolution in the sector in recent time that has made the agribusiness very lucrative and rewarding.The sector has generated and is still generating millions of dollars and putting food on the table of many Nigerians and beyond.Oil is fast drying up and every Nigerian both home and abroad have diversified into this new money making machine agribusiness.Below are some the agribusiness  in Nigeria that is enriching millions of people.

      * Cassava Farming-Research has proven that cassava derived foods are consumed majorly in Nigeria on daily basis ranging from Garri,Fufu and African salad popularly known as ABASHA among the Igbo locals.If you invest into cassava farming and cultivate 50-100 acres of land in fertile area like Delta and Ondo state,your return will definitely put a smile on your face.

Rice farm in Nigeria

      * Rice Farming-Rice is the most consumed staple food in Nigeria.Nigeria spends Billions of Dollar in the  importation of this product from countries such as Thailand and china.This intensive importation is owed to the fact that the local farmers are unable to meet the ever rising demand of the product because of lack of adequate funding,also contributing to this is the limited knowledge of how it can be run.If you are interested and you have the cash to invest into Rice farming in Nigeria,i will partner with you by giving you acres of land in areas like Anambra state and Ebonyi state to cultivate.You will sure smile to the Bank after your harvest.

Poultry Farm in Nigeria

      * Poultry Farming-This farming is very lucrative and is enriching average Nigerians.Nigeria imports most of the poultry products consumed in the country e.g frozen chicken and turkey are imported into the country for consumption.If one invest into this goldmine business with a thousand birds and run it properly,you be making a whole lots of profits with a year.
      

2. Fast Food and Eatery-Millions of Nigerians go out of their homes on daily basis having only breakfast at home.Now i ask,where do they eat their lunch?of course at the fast food and eateries out there.So if you must invest into it,you must have a knowledge of how it works in Nigeria.If you have all the management skills it requires then making money is not far from you.



3.Building Materials-Houses are being erected every now and then in Nigeria,government are working on various projects that require building materials.I will also like to add that from one of the reports of U.N(United Nation)is that Nigeria is one of the fastest developing countries in the world,you know what that means! 

4. Transport Business-Transport business both inter-state and intra-state is very yielding in Nigeria.You can own and manage either an inter or intra state transport company in Nigeria without much stress.You can as well own taxi company.The money that accrues from it is like bank break

5.Fashion Business-Looking good is a good business is a very popular saying,i also hear people say that how you are dressed is how you will be addressed.All this are common sayings of an average Nigerian.In Nigeria,they like to make a big statement by what they put on.A Nigerian would love to wear good stuffs not minding if his/her wallet is empty.That is to explain how crazy Nigerians are about Fashion,they are some of the trendiest people in the world.Your Bank account will explode if you invest into fashion with the right management and skills required.

6.Entertainment Industry-Nigeria is the capital of Entertainment in Africa you don't need to be told.It may also interest you to know that Nigeria is the highest consumer of media content in Africa.Entertainment is a very lucrative business to invest fully into in Nigeria.
