6 Reasons You Shouldn’t Attend a Private University -
Many Nigerian students these days often move quickly to queue for private universities when making a choice of institution. I agree that private universities have advantages like the absence of strike, easy access to lecturers… Well, that’s about all.
Public universities, federal and state, have a lot of advantages, from cheaper school fees, to the freedom to be an adult. Public universities expose you to the real world, introduces you to the hustle of life unlike private universities that consist of a lot of brats who are literally spoon-fed. They are so pampered, making difficult to face the real world when they become graduates.

Ebola death toll: 2,296 - By WHO
The death toll from the worst Ebola outbreak ever has risen up to at least 2,296 out of 4,293 cases in five West African countries, the World Health Organization said today Tuesday September 9th.
The death toll, based on WHO, jumped by almost 200 in one day and the figure was by September 6th. WHO also said it did not have new figures for Liberia, the worst-affected country to date, suggesting the actual number is more than 2,296
"We know that the numbers are under-estimated. We are currently working to estimate the under-estimation. It’s a war against this virus. It’s a very difficult war. What we try now is to win some battles at least in some places.” director of WHO’s department of pandemic and epidemic diseases, Sylvie Briand, said today in Geneva
