JAMB: study questions (Inorganic Chemistry)

By


As promised by KLASSICSENTENCE team to help all our JAMB candidates in preparing for their forthcoming JAMB exams, we do not have plans of not pushing through that promise as such we have taken our time to draft out some study questions to help our audience to prepare for their exam.

NOTE: this is not JAMB questions, we are not in the business of selling fake question in other to make money this is just questions drafted by some Chemistry students University of Nigeria Nsukka to help JAMB candidates test them selves and know how well they have prepared for the exam.
Invite your friends in other to take part in these great preparatory test, for it is penitent for a student to test his/her self before going in for the main exam.

Selling of handout in Nigerian Universities not our Making says ASUU

By
The Academic Staff Union of Universities in Nigeria (ASUU) has expressed displeasure at the mandatory sale of handouts by some lecturers in tertiary institutions. Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi, President of the union, expressed this view in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Abuja. “It is not wise for lecturers in our tertiary institutions to compel students to be buying handouts, though it is not a widespread practice; we have few people that are misbehaving. “But the system has a way of handling them, so anywhere they see them they always put them on check. “It is not permitted in the system and there is a structure for tracking and dealing with that so ASUU as a union don’t condone it and we discourage it anywhere and everywhere we go,’’ he said. However, a cross section of Nigerian students had decried the rate at which some lecturers extort money from them in the name of selling of handouts. Speaking in separate interviews with NAN, students lamen...

According to him, there will be no teaching, no examination and no attendance of statutory meetings of any kind in any of the union’s branches during the strike. He said ASUU must make the Federal and state governments to implement the provisions of the 2009 Agreement, the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) of 2013 and the understanding reached in November 2016 in order to lay the foundation for a university system capable of producing a country of our dream.

Bayelsa varsity shutdown by students(Trouble in Nigeria versities who is to be blamed?)

By
The Bayelsa State-owned Niger Delta University (NDU), Wilberforce Island, was, Monday, shut down by students following what they described as outrageous increase in all categories of fees in the school. The aggrieved students were said to have shut the gate to the main entrance of the school in Amassoma, Southern Ijaw, stopping vehicular movement into the campus. The protest, which coincided with an indefinite strike declared by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) reportedly, crippled academic and social activities on campus. The students were said to be angry over hike in school fees, electronic course registrations and non-inclusion of students’ representation in decision-making. The demonstration, which was led by the President of the Student Union Government (SUG), Mr. Kemes Mitin, was said to be peaceful without skirmishes. The students lamented that the school authority was gradually turning the state university into a private institution in its quest to r...
