Five tangible reasons why students fail mathematics... Be thee next Albert Einstein

Mathematics is a very important subject which is very vital for student aiming to proceed to higher citadel of learning.But in the recent years students have one or two challenges with mathematics which is the fundamental of science. The following are reasons why students performance is very low in mathematics.

1.Low interest of students from the onset of study.
Lately students in high school tends to lost interest in mathematics because of one or two reasons best known to them,students might say mathematics consumes a lot of their time,some will even say they did not like the teacher taking it.Well that very bad because this is might render you from achieving your dreams. Get use to various things disturbing and fix them up.

2.Lack of Quality and adequate textbook
Well this might not occur to you has a tangible reason why student fail mathematics but definitely it very important.Getting a very standard textbook like The new general mathematics and other fantastic textbook will help go a long way in becoming a Genius in this subject.

3.Fear or phobia of failing the subject
If you fall in this category of people having phobia for mathematics then it will really be hard for you to pass the subject.To over come this kind of problem you need to attend various tutorial classes,attempting various exercise, attempting various classwork, even if you fail don't worry Rome was not built in a day it takes thousands if years just maintain your constitency then success will come your way.

4.Peer group pressure
If you are the type that hate mathematics and still moves with students that hate this subject then you might be making the biggest mistake of your life because if you keep on doing this it will definitely not assist in any way.Why move with the right student and help yourself achieve that dream of yours.

5.Overconfidence of students
Overconfidence kills, This actually happen most times to students who love mathematics and believe nothing new comes their way.Well as for mathematics you discover something new everyday because every seconds professors of mathematics keeps discovering something news everyday. So keep and learn from everyone because nobody knows it all.

You really face challenge in this top while not leave us a comment and advice you on overcoming them.

All the praises and thanks be to Allah, who sent down to his slave (Muhammad, sal Allahu alaihi WA salam) the book (the Qur'an) and has not placed therein any crookedness. [ Al-kahf 18:1]

Different surahs exist in the holy Qur'an and these surahs has so much in them in terms of meaning. It is our duty to try our best and learn understand, recite, practise and to share the knowledge to others.

Al-kahf, named after the cave and the people of the cave. This surah is often played on our airwaves every Friday and many of us do read this surah on daily basis or weekly specially on friday. I particularly read it often, i love narrations.[/color]
The Stories in the Surah.[color=#000000]

1: A few believers fled a city for fear of been persecuted and took refuge in a cave, the sleepoff and later woke to found that the people of the city had become believers.

2:The verses 32-44 discuses a parable of two men, one who was blessed with gardens and the other the poor. The rich man did wrong by showing off is wealth and noble lineage and also telling the poor man "I am greater than you in wealth and men" his wealth was later destroyed and he later rectified is statement by saying Allah is indeed is Lord, there is no power except with Allah. [Al-kahf 18:38] .

4: The test of power ( where people would love to be powerful and want to command authority so the begin to worship the devil because the dajjal will instruct them to do that.

Lautech Governing board council meeting report

COUNCIL MEETING REPORT

Immediately after a hand shake with the Vice chancellor along with other students, he  addressed us openly at the floor of the school library while the governing council chairman only waved at us with a lovely smile. And as much as we hasten up to speak with him too, he was already on his way to SOUN palace with his escort. Thank God, we were able to hear a word directly from the VC today after a long expectation, his message and sympathy speech were warmly received.

Without mincing words, we were able to gather lot of information from appropriate quarters immediately we left the library where the council meeting was held. Top of the discussion was on forensic audit which has been raising a lot of controversy between the unions and government.

The No pay No work and the No audit No pay was the bone of contention. The Unions were able to make their position known while the governing council too was able to relay the position of the government. In the course of that; the ASUU stand was clearly stated that the governing council should pay all outstanding arrears of subvention and come out with sustainable plan. However, the union further stressed that there's  nothing concerning ASUU about the auditing firm. " Pay what you owed and let the system run' that ASUU cannot persuade her members to resume work on empty stomach"

In a similar case, the JAC also made its position known on the forensic audit. The governing council however pleaded to the Unions to withdraw its case from court as it is clear that the government has no moral justification and already on the loosing side. For this, the governing council chairman had to quickly made an appeal to the unions to make it a case " out of court settlement" than just a withdraw case". But whether the unions will agree to that or not is a matter of congressional decision as they hold their congress soon. The decision at the congress will also determine whether some of their members would be allowed to participate in the forensic audit exercise as pleaded by the GC for two weeks. That being the case, it's not yet ripe to say they've agreed to shift ground until after their congress.

However, it's shocking and painful that the governors who received Paris club funds amongst others could be waiting for the report of the forensic audit to sign a bond on borrowing. The governments position is to make use of the forensic audit report to borrow money from bank for the school.

While meeting is still ongoing to solve the crises, students are therefore urged to keep praying. An interim report may be submitted to the two visitors as soon as possible for further actions and way forward. Don't forget that the problem of LAUTECH is funding, we, however, hope that the two governors will release the money in their kitty now before exhausting it.

We hope they will do away with their Ego and Bow their face in shame, for they are already losing. To us, professor Afolabi is a man of integrity, as such, any attempt to stain his integrity may be at their own loss. Kindly equip the man with funds to properly reposition the school.

Mikel Obi Speaks On Cameroon Game And Nigeria’s 2018 FIFA World Cup Chances

Super Eagles captain speaks on Cameroon game and Nigeria’s 2018 FIFA World Cup chances

Super Eagles captain Mikel Obi is confident that Nigeria will qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. 

Nigeria are currently four points clear at the top of Group B in qualifiers and Mikel believes the Super Eagles will be closer to qualification if they win their next game at home against Cameroon. 

"We are in a very good position in our group. We have two wins from two games, and in our last game we beat Algeria at home,” Mikel told the official website of FIFA. 


“We have a very good young team and the players play good football. If we can win our next match (at home to Cameroon on 31 August) it will edge us closer to qualification. I think we can go through."

Nigeria will face host Cameroon in Uyo on Friday, September 1 before a return leg in Yaoundé on Monday, August 4.


"As everyone knows, they are a very good team,” Mikel said. 

“They are strong and they play with confidence. We must get ourselves well prepared for this game and try our best to get on top against them. It won't be easy but these are important matches. If we win both, we will be almost there.”

Mikel has not played for the Super Eagles since the 3-1 home win over Algeria in November 2016, a game which he scored in. 

The 30-year-old midfielder in April had a surgery in London for a lingering abdominal strain which sidelined him for more than three months. 

Mikel is back training and has promised to do all he can to be fit for the game against Cameroon.

"I had maintained good form until this injury, so it was a shame. But this is part of the game and now I am focusing on recovery and on coming back stronger. I will do whatever I can to get fit to play for Teda and my national team,” Mikel said. 

"This Nigeria team look up to me for advice. My team-mates miss me and they need me. As the captain, I want to fulfil my role and help them with my experience."

Mikel has played in just one FIFA World Cup tournament, Brazil 2014, missing the 2010 edition in South Africa due to injury.
