26-year-old banker, Daniel Makanjuola, has been arrested by the Police in Lagos for using a forged West African Senior School Certificate and Lagos State University’s statement of result to get a job at Wema Bank Plc, Marina branch,Lagos Island.
The police said Makanjuola pretended that he was a degree holder in marketing with Second Class, Upper Division, and had also provided a forged National Youth Service Corps discharge certificate and a reference letter to the bank before he gained employment. He claimed to have obtained the letter from United Bank for Africa, where he supposedly worked previously.
According to Punch, Daniel who is from Ijero Local Government Area in Ekiti State, had joined the bank in 2013, before he was sacked in July 2015 after the documents were confirmed to be fake.
It was gathered that the fraudulent act was discovered after WEMA Bank management had sent a verification letter UBA to to verify the authenticity of the reference letter. UBA was said to have denied any knowledge of Makanjuola and the letter.
After the discovery, the bank decided to write West African Examinations Council and LASU, to confirm the veracity of his documents but both exam bodies disclaimed the results Makanjuola had presented to WEMA
The suspect was arrested after the case was reported at the Lion Building Police Station.
After his arrest, the suspect, in a statement to the police confessed to the crime and explained how he obtained the forged certificates.
He said he made the fake documents because he couldn't get a job and he wanted to alleviate the poverty in his family.

He said:
“I am actually a National Diploma holder. I secured the fake WASCE and LASU results, using a search engine and CorelDraw application. I scanned an NYSC certificate and used some applications to edit it. I did it in order to put an end to the suffering of my poor family. I am the only son of my father. I want the authority to be compassionate with my case. I was only trying to live a better life.”
A police prosecutor, Inspector I. Okeke, arraigned Makanjuola at the Tinubu Magistrate’s Court on three counts of forgery.
The accused pleaded not guilty to the charges before the presiding magistrate, Mr. A. Adefulire.
Adefulire granted him bail in the sum of N100,000 with two sureties in like sum. He adjourned the case till October 22, 2015.

University of Maiduguri Nigeria's cultures face extinction, youth lack cultural training — Don

Cultural values in Nigeria face extinction as youth increasingly adopt foreign ways of life, says a lecturer at theUniversity of Maiduguri(UNIMAID), DrBabagana Kachallah.


Kachallah, a research expert at UNIMAID's Centre for Trans-Saharan Studies, said most of the traditions and cultures of the Kanuri people and other ethnic groups in country will soon become extinct.

The don blame the development of the lack of cultural orientation of the youth who adopt foreign cultures, especially with regards to fashion and beauty values.
"Our youth do not have the basic cultural training and cultural orientation, to be seen as potential stake holders in our cultural struggles to build an independent society that depends on its indigenous local resources," Kachallah said.

"Today, we hardly see our traditional hairdo in Borno, the "Shangalti, the figgeria, kiliyasku, Hajja amne, rob and Mai Ali," which were some of the typical traditional attire used by our women.
"Most of our girls and ladies have adopted various hair styles of external origin, thereby giving way for our local hair to disappear.

"Our traditional cosmetics such as "Moromoro, grumbal and alaama, have all gone out of use and the women now patronize foreign cosmetics at high rate to sustain their beauty and feminine values."

According to him, there is a need to reorientation of the youths to reverse the influence of external cultures and the erosion of the local one.

Mike Omotosho Scholarships MOFIS offers overseas scholarships to 10,000 Nigerian students

TheMike Omotosho Foundation International Scholarship(MOFIS) has offered tuition waivers to 10,000 Nigerian students who want to study undergraduate and postgraduate programs in Cyprus, Malaysia, India and Russia.


Speaking at the unveiling of the program, MOFIS Founder,Mike Omotosho, said it was set up to help Nigerian students gain quality education abroad.
Omotosho noted that many Nigerian students have not been able to acquire the sets of skills and knowledge that is needed by employers due to the shortfall of admission spots available.
"We have over 1.5 million candidates apply annually for admissions into universities nationwide but only about 600,000 are admitted," he said.

"Some of these unsuccessful applicants become frustrated and sometimes, resort to crimes; hence the need for meaningful access to university education has recently become indispensable in Nigeria as a result of population increase and volume of awareness of the role of the university education in the development of the individual and the nation at large."

"The foundation is committed with her partners to walk our Youth through the right path, because we believe that access to quality education is the lifeline for a bright tomorrow."

All Nigerian students with at least 5 credits in their O Level Examination are eligible.
Mike Omotosho Foundation International Scholarship was founded in 2010.

Nigeria Union of Teachers Body seeks death benefits of 380 teachers killed by insurgents

TheNigeria Union of Teachers(NUT) inBorno, on Monday urged the state government to speedily pay the death benefits of teachers killed byBoko Haram.

The Chairman of the union, MalamBulama Abiso, made the appeal in an interview with theNews Agency of Nigeria(NAN) inMaiduguri.
He said that no fewer than 380 teachers were killed while about 33, 000 others had been displaced from their habitat by insurgency.

The chairman said the payment of the benefits would assist families of the affected teachers, who were experiencing serious hardship.
Abiso also canvassed the establishment of insurance cover for teachers in private and public schools in the state in order to boost their morale for higher productivity.
The chairman said the insurance cover would further encourage teachers to give their best in the service of their fatherland.
Abiso also appealed to government to consider extending the insurance cover to students in primary and secondary schools in the state.
He further urged the government to give priority to the welfare of teachers, pay their promotion benefits and annual increment for 2012, 2013 and 2014.
The NUT chairman stressed the need for the government to pay the balance of the salaries of teachers under paid due to biometric data problem and those whose salaries were stopped since 2011.
Abiso said the government should pay arrears of pension and gratuity of retired teachers.
According to him, the union has initiated programmes aimed at empowering and uplifting the living standard of teachers in the state.
"The union was able to secure 27.5 per cent allowance for all professional teachers across the state and completed the renovation of the NUT Secretariat.

"We also purchased plots of land through the" NUT House for All Teachers initiative’’ whereby we assist our teachers to own houses.
"Our Live and End Well Programme is also second to none, as funds are donated to teachers to assist and empower them to become self reliant," he said
