In fact, kidneys absorb toxins and salts continually, as well as stones and sand. To prevent their accumulation and the formation of dangerous deposits, you need to detoxify them and get rid of these harmful compounds.

  • -A handful of coriander or parsley leaves
  • -Water

NUC Discredits The Report That Medical Students Are To Spend 11 Years In school



The National Universities Commission (NUC) has discredited the reports that medical students in Nigerian universities would henceforth study for 11 years before obtaining an MBBS degree.

This was disclosed by the NUC Executive Secretary, Prof. Julius Okojie, in Abuja,

According to him, the new Benchmark Minimum Academic Standard (BMAS) for Medicine and Dentistry, which had since been made public by commission, only provides for a seven-year training, leading to the award of MBBS/MDS.

“A seven year MBBS programme that encompass a seamless four- year acquisition of the B.SC. Basic Medical Science with interest in either Anatomy/Physiology/Biochemistry."

“At the end of seven years, students would have acquired the Bachelor of Medical Science, Bachelorof Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degrees. In case of dental programmes, students would have acquired a degree in Basic Dental Sciences and Bachelor of Dental Surgery."

House of Reps Orders JAMB To Revert To Paper-Pencil Test

The agitations from candidates may have started yielding fruits as the House of Representatives has asked the Federal Ministry of Education to direct the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to revert to pencil-paper method in the conduct of UTME or adopt both PPT and CBT so that candidates can opt for any one of their choice.

This followed a motion moved by a lawmaker from Lagos State, Mr. Oghene Emma-Egoh, on the “conflicting” scores of candidates who took the examination.

The law maker stressed that the technical errors experiences during the examination has invariably dashed the hopes of many of these candidates in gaining admission this year.

The law maker further pointed to two cases of conflicting results. One is that of Ibrahim Shawulu from Kogi State, who was said to have scored 399 out of 400, and in less than 24 hours his score was reduced to 199.”

Another is that of Foluke, the 17-year-old girl in Ejigbo-Lagos, who scored an aggregate of 156 and when the result was checked again she had an aggregate of 196.”

Based on these and other technical flaws that marred the conduct of the 2016 UTME, the house of Representatives is of the opinion that JAMB does not have what it takes to manage the Computer Based Test.

FlyDubai flight FZ981 crashes at Russia's Rostov-on-Don airport, killing 62 people

A plane carrying 62 people has crashed while attempting to land at Russia's Rostov-on-Don airport, killing all those onboard, officials say.

 Key points:

  • 55 passengers, 7 crew members killed in FlyDubai plane crash
  • Russian authorities say bad weather caused crash
  • FlyDubai, Boeing gathering details

The plane, operated by Dubai-based carrier FlyDubai, "hit the ground and broke into pieces," the Investigative Committee of Russia said in a statement on its website.
"According to preliminary data, there were 55 passengers aboard and 7 crew members. They all died."
FlyDubai released details of the passengers' nationalities in a statement on its Facebook page.
"FlyDubai confirms that flight FZ981 was carrying 55 passengers from 4 different nationalities: 44 Russian, 8 Ukrainian, 2 Indian, 1 Uzbekistani," the statement said.
The Russian Emergency Ministry said in a statement on its website that six of the crew were non-Russians, but it did not reveal their citizenship.
Russia's state-run RIA Novosti news agency said the Boeing 737 crashed to the left of the runway during bad weather.
In an earlier statement, FlyDubai said the passengers were made up of 33 women and 18 men, including four children, with seven crew also on board.

Human error or technical failure possible cause

The Investigative Committee of Russia was looking at two possible causes for the crash: pilot error "in connection with deteriorating weather conditions" or a technical error, Interfax news agency quoted Oksana Kovrizhnaya, a representative of the committee, as saying.

FlyDubai's chief executive said the company was in deep shock.
"Our hearts go out to the families and friends of those involved," Ghaith Al Ghaith said in the statement from the airline.
"We don't yet know all the details of the accident but we are working closely with the authorities to establish the cause.
"We are making every effort to care for those affected and will provide assistance to the loved ones of those on board."

In a statement, Russia's emergencies ministry said the aircraft had to abandon an initial attempt to land and came down at 3:50am local time while making a repeat attempt.
Through a Kremlin spokesman, Russian President Vladimir Putin said giving assistance to the relatives of those killed was the priority, local media said.

"The head of the state said that now the main thing is to work with the families and the loved ones of those who had died," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov was quoted as saying.
In a statement, Boeing said: "Thoughts and prayers are with those on board FlyDubai flight FZ981 and their families and friends."

"Boeing stands ready to provide technical assistance upon the request of government agencies conducting the investigation."

Candidates That Had System Failure And Those That Missed The Exam Will Retake It - JAMB

The Registrar Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Dibu Ojerinde has stated that candidates who missed their examination because they were relocated will be given another opportunity to sit for the examination.

Also candidates who had system failure during the examination would retake it, once it is proven by the board that their complaints are genuine.

On the issue of conflicting results, Prof. Dibu said, “Let me use this opportunity to offer explanation on the issue of the much-publicized two results. The process of our marking involves transformation and other qualitative programming.

In the process of these configurations, we had a little challenge which we quickly corrected and ensured that this never happened in subsequent results. This challenge was only associated with the candidates that sat for this examination on Saturday, 27, and some candidates of Monday, 29 February, 2016.”

He also disclosed that out of the 1,546,633 candidates that sat for the 2016 UTME, 145, 704 had issues of multiple results which have been resolved by the board.

He blamed the technical hitches experienced in some of the centres on the operators of the centers as some of them hired equipment just to pass the accreditation process only to be found wanting on the examination day.

He further stated that reverting to Pencil-Paper Test as directed by the House of Representatives will invariably amount to taking one step forward and two steps backwards.

“Even the physically challenged are taking the CBT examination. One of the blind candidates scored 286, so why should others complain? He queried.
