WAEC Denies Throwing Jabs At Finance Minister
WAEC Denies Throwing Jabs At Finance Minister
The West African Examination Council (WAEC), has debunked a report making the rounds by some online media platforms, that the council’s Registrar, Dr. Iyi Uwadiae, threw shades at the Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun, by offering her a free arithmetic course.

According to a statement issued by the council’s head of public affairs, Abiodun Aduloju, WAEC described as ‘false and malicious’ the allegation, saying that such unruly demeanour was not in the character of its Registrar.
The statement reads: “The online publication is worrisome and embarrassing to WAEC, as the registrar did not make the statement credited to him and could not have responded as purported to an allegation in which the name of his organisation was not mentioned.
The registrar does not reside in Nigeria and has not granted a press interview or engaged in an informal chat with any Nigerian media representative or authorised anyone to speak on his behalf concerning the minister’s statement.
Dr. Uwadiae is an experienced public personality seasoned diplomat, who holds sacrosanct the entrenched culture of mutual understanding and respect that exists among all operatives and representatives of the governments of the five member countries of the council.”
Reports had emerged online, alleging that the Finance Minister had accused WAEC of not remitting accurate funds to Federal Government coffers, which allegedly prompted Dr. Uwadiae to have said that her calculations were inaccurate and went on to offer her a free course in arithmetic.
I find Imelda Marcos story very interesting. Thought of sharing. Enjoy ONE LITTLE GIRL Once upon a time there was a little girl. She was a beautiful little girl, everyone agreed. She had dark hair, pale skin and almond eyes. And she sang like an angel. Everyone agreed on that too. Until she was 10 our little girl lived in the big city. It was a sprawling, bustling, filthy place. She lived in a hovel. Well, it wasn’t so much a hovel as a rundown garage. And, when the wind blew at night, the doors and shutters creaked and banged and she was very afraid. And every year when the fierce monsoon rains wreaked their vengeance on the earth the floor of the garage flooded and the little girl’s bare feet were cold and wet. One night in a fearsome storm our little girls’ mummy died – “of pneumonia”, they said, but our little girl didn’t understand. And so she and her widowed father and her five brothers and sisters left the garage in the big city and went to live on a tropical ...
How Learning 11 Languages Taught Me 11 Crucial Lessons This article is a wake-up call for all those who dream of becoming multilingual: just do it! Luca Lampariello talks about where he finds the motivation for learning languages, and how he’s learned 11 so far. By Luca Lampariello When people meet someone who speaks many languages fluently, the first reaction is often one of slight bewilderment. Multilingualism is generally considered cool yet difficult to achieve , especially if second, third and fourth languages are acquired later in life. As an advocate of language learning, I of course agree that it’s cool, but I challenge the assumption that it’s difficult. My name is Luca Lampariello. Here I would like to deviate from the well-trodden route to how I learned 11 languages and concentrate on why I learned these languages. Seasoned language learners will all tell you that motivation is fundamental, so where can one find this motivation and h...
DENIAL Georgia man serving life in prison despite DNA evidence of a different killer By Jodie Fleischer , Brad Schrade , Patti DiVincenzo, Josh Wade February 24, 2016 Devonia Inman, at age 20 when first arrested, and today after serving nearly 18 years in prison for a murder he may not have committed. From the moment he was arrested for murder, Devonia Inman said police had the wrong man. It would take more than a decade behind bars and new DNA testing before he thought he could prove it. But now, Georgia's justice system won't give him that chance. "What do I got to do when we've got DNA evidence that proves I'm not the person who committed this crime?" he asked from inside a small cage at the Georgia State Prison in Reidsville. His lawyers believe the scientific evidence proves another man fatally shot Taco Bell manager Donna Brown in a late night robbery. But in Georgia, DNA isn't always enough for a new trial...
