[Photos] UNILAG College of Medicine Students Protest Increase in GP Cut-off Marks

prot-luth-stud
There was pandemonium yesterday at the University of Lagos (UNILAG), following the protest by College of Medicine students over what they described as a wicked increase in cut-off marks required for students to continue medical training.

The students alleged that the school management had increased the cut-off from 2.50 grade point to 4.00 without giving current students any warning or special considerations.

The cut-off is the required minimum score for a medical student to proceed to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) after their first year on the university’s main campus.

Beauty Geek: Wigs Are Back in Style & Here Are Reasons To Rock ‘Em!

Entrepreneur Jennifer Olize & Media Personality Toke Makinwa rocking wigs

Years ago, wigs used to be for our mothers and grandmothers. It was not fashionable for one to wear a wig as a young lady; but that’s not the case anymore.

Wigs are in! Especially since so many modern and versatile styles are now being created as wigs. It is even hard to tell the difference between a wig and sew-in these days as there are professional stylists who have mastered the skill. Many of us are now wig lovers with good reason.

Let’s have a look at some of the advantages of wigs over sew-ins
  1. One doesn’t need to sit through the construction of the wig whereas you’d have to be present if you were having your hair installed or sewn-in.
  2. You can always take the wig off and let your natural hair breathe
  3. It’s much easier to style hair on a mannequin than on your own head
  4. One can change hairstyles more frequently with wigs. On the other hand it would be tedious having to sit through weave installation process every two weeks.
  5. It is less damaging to your hair because there is not thread pulling at your hair.
  6. It is much easier to wash your natural hair thoroughly and more frequently
Wigs are awesome, but you better not get into a fight with your wig on, because if your opponent knows, she will target it! It can be very embarrassing to have your wig pulled off at a social gathering and I’m sure that’s the main reason why some of us don’t fancy wigs. However with band and combs installed on wigs, it would take real effort to pull the wig off.

Weighing the pros and cons, which would you go for, a wig? Or installed weave?

Notice To Prospective 2016 Batch A Corps Members With Registration Issues

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) wishes to notify all prospective batch A 2016 corps members having challenges with online registration of the following;

1) If you made payment directly to the bank and you haven't gotten your PIN via SMS, please scan the receipt given to you at the bank and send to nyscsupport@sidmach.com with all your details including email address and phone number.

4) Those who made successful payment and didn't see call-up number on their dashboard should re-login now.

NOTE: All prospective corps members are to take note of the following and try to avoid them during registration:

1. Registration by proxy: affected PCM can not register at camp because the biometrics is not his/hers.
2. Mixed up registration: some cyber cafe operators have the habit of registering more than one persons at a time in one computer by opening 2 or more tabs on the same browser. This causes mix-up in the PCMs information which is hard to rectify. We advise you to sit with the person registering you and make sure he doesn't register another person at same time he registers u. When you want to go somewhere before he finishes with u, tell him to log you out before he starts with somebody.
3. Don't allow cafe operator to use his email address for you. If you don't have email, let him create one for you and make sure he gives you the details...email address and the password. Keep them safe because you need them.
4. For married women, make sure you go with your marital documents, choose married online and upload them during registration. In the column to input your spouse surname, make sure you put the correct surname you are using after marriage.
5. For sick person, make sure you indicate it and the type of sickness, also provide all other details and upload medical report.

DJ Spinall brought down the roof and took the excited crowd down memory lane with amazing hits, Phyno on the other hand got massive back up as the audience couldn’t resist singing along the entire verse of his popular track ‘Connect’, the excitement was magnetic even as Phyno reciprocated the kind gesture by giving out his shirt to one lucky person in the crowd.

The guests were also treated to a fun experience with exciting activities including UV face and body painting as well as a live performance by popular graffiti artist, Osa who did a live- painting of the Benin pendant ivory mask on stage. It was indeed a special and magical night! If you were in Benin and you were not at the party, then you really missed out.

Watch Lola OJ’s 10-Step Tutorial on “How to Create Fuller Lips”

Vlogger and makeup artist Lola OJ has a simple step-by-step tutorial on how to get fuller lips!

Step 1: Moisturise your lips
Use a smooth lip moisturiser to gently cream your lips.

Step 2: Prime your lips
Apply a matte primer over your lips in preparation for the next step.

Step 3: Apply a thin layer of foundation
Using a beauty sponge, evenly apply a fine layer of foundation directly over your lips and lip area to neutralise your natural lip colour.

Step 4: Line your lips
Following the natural shape of your lips, use a dark brown lip liner that will helps define lips. Line your lips with the lipliner, you can draw just a little but above your natural lip line but do not overdo it as it will show.

Step 5: Fill in your lip edges
Begin to fill in the corners of your lips with the lip liner, apply the lip liner downwards towards the inner parts of your lips.

Step 6: Apply your nude/brown lipstick
Apply your matte lipstick directly on top of your lip liner, leaving a very minimal amount of space between the lip liner and the lipstick.

Step 7: Reline your lips
With the same lip liner, go over your original line to blend the liner and lipstick together.

Step 8: Neaten your lips
Using a tiny amount of concealer and a concealer brush, begin to neaten the edges so that the lines become clean and smooth.

Step 9: Set the concealer with powder
Using a setting powder and setting brush, go over the concealer you have applied with a setting powder so that it will blend in naturally with the rest of your face.

Step 10: Extra matte lips
Using a clear or lightly coloured powder, using your index finger, dap a little bit of powder lightly all over your lipstick to give the lipstick an extra matte finish.

Then you now have the finished look!

Exclusive: Ade Bakare Debuts Colourful Ankara Range Collection + Lookbook Review

Inspired by an old photo of his mum in the 1950’s Lagos, leading Nigerian couturier/designer – Ade Bakare, attempts to pay homage to Lagos’ 50’s style, which was largely characterized by elegant A-line dresses in Christian Dior inspired bar length cuts. A total turn-around from the designers often unmistakable romance with silk crepe and gazar (which were still hinted minutely in this collection) with understated and demure aesthetic that we’ve come to know him with. Ade Bakare takes a refreshing risk with colourful print Ankara fabrics which ultimately brought an often rare vitality and youngness to his design.

Although a commendable effort by the celebrated designer, the hard to miss conspicuous seams spread across the pieces almost renders the designer’s often lauded attention to detail – questionable, and, with little to no synergy or cohesiveness in the collection, save for the kaleidoscope of bright colours, prints and the mustard-coloured background they share in common.

For what it is worth though, we are indeed mesmerized by the designer’s ability to infuse classic A-line silhouettes, wraps and his signature belle sleeves and neck sash into this eye popping array of pieces, specially for today’s woman.
