5 NEW PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES SPRING UP

The Federal Executive Council (FEC) on Wednesday approved the establishment of five additional private universities to promote quality university education in the country.
The Minister of Education, Professor Rukayyat Rufa'i, disclosed this while briefing State House correspondents on the outcome of the weekly FEC meeting, which was presided over by Vice President Namadi Sambo, at Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the council had in 2011 approved provisional licenses for the establishment of four private universities. No fewer that 18 universities have so far been established across the country by the President Goodluck Jonathan's led administration.

They include nine public and nine private universities. Rufa'I said that prior to the approval of the five additional private universities, the country had 117 universities, serving the over 150 million Nigerians.

"The 117 that we have and with the gracious approval of the Federal Executive Council today of additional five private universities, now the country will boast of 117 in relation to the additional five which will give us 122 universities both states, federal and also private.

"So, we have gone through all the criteria that we have, we have a guideline through NUC and all these private universities have undergone this rigorous screening in terms of fulfilling the criteria."

The minister said that the licenses to be given to the affected universities next Monday would be provisional for a period of three years. She said that the ministry, through the National Universities Commission (NUC), would re-asses the universities to ensure strict adherence to the NUC's guidelines in relation to infrastructural facilities, finance and staffing.

universities approved by
FEC are Elizade University at Ilara Mokin, Ondo State, with Federal University of Technology, Akure, as its mentor; Evangel University at Akaeze, Ebonyi State, with University of Nigeria, Nsukka, as its mentor and Gregory University Uturu, Abia State, with University of Nigeria, Nsukka, as its mentor.

Rimmel London Hard Rock

Bu ojeyi Chanel Graphite'in benzeri olabilir diye sürdüm ilk başta ama alakaları yok. Bir kere Hard Rock ondan daha koyu. Aslında benzeyip benzememesi çok önemli değil çünkü en favori ojelerimden biri ve size gösterebilmem için fırsat doğdu. Bilmem söylemiş miydim ama Rimmel'ın Sky High'ına bayıldığım için yedeklemiştim, bu ojeyi aldıktan sonra tekrar görebilseydim mutlaka aynı muameleyi yapardım! I picked up this nail polish yesterday while thinking this could be Chanel Graphite's dupe but Hard Rock is too dark to be a dupe. Actually that isn't important for me, Hard Rock is one of my favourite polishes and now I can show it to you. I wish I would buy one more of this but I have never seen it after I bought this one :( Harika bir sonbahar ve kış ojesi, bu renk bende tırnaklarıma gerçekten metal sürmüşüm hissi uyandırıyor, çok seviyoruum :) This is a great fall&winter colour, I feel like I applied liquid metal on my nails and love that feeling :)
