We would like to however, inform you, that we are yet to receive your tax returns as demanded by law. Please walk into any of our offices, to regularise your tax standing. Once again thank you."

"There is a Yoruba adage that says "its sweet to watch a stranger display madness in the market"✏ but who will ever pray for any member of his family to go through such trauma and agony?😭," he wrote in parts.

The time I left Ivan I was dating a person and because it was a long distance relationship thing, we would get on the phone and do whatever we have to do, we were adults and we had our intimate moments. It came to a point where this person had recorded a session. It came to a point where I decided to leave the relationship and he blackmailed me that I should pay him. I said it's fine, you wanna release this video? It's fine. You cannot blackmail me for having a relationship with you. You wanna blackmail me by releasing my sex video that you recorded? It's fine go ahead and he did. It's in the past," she said. In This Story: #ExWife #Tanzanian #Singer #DiamondPlatnumz #Leaked #Sextape Sharing is caring. Share this story  | ||

| SouthAfrica gets first fully online Honours degree Posted: 29 Apr 2019 12:08 PM PDT
The current challenges facing South African universities — including high tuition and facilities costs, high student-to-lecturer ratios and severe underfunding by the state — means professional bodies must search for innovative ways to make high-quality education more accessible to prospective members. It is for this reason that the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA) is pleased to announce that Milpark Education has recently received SAICA-accreditation for its fully online Postgraduate Diploma in Accountancy (PGDA) with its first intake in July 2019. Milpark Education's PGDA was born out of a merger with CA Connect, a long-standing contributor to SAICA-accredited postgraduate programmes at various universities. Explains Gareth Olivier, the PGDA programme head at Milpark: 'We have been working towards an innovative solution in this space since 2010 and we're excited about the opportunities that online chartered accountant education brings. Our PGDA has significant potential to widen access for prospective CAs(SA) and also to deliver a significantly improved educational experience. Being fully online, the programme is available to prospective CAs(SA) from anywhere in the world and is the first true alternative to traditional distance education in this space.' Not only is the programme accessible and flexible but, 'it also provides a highly engaged student experience with top quality educational guidance and support, the type usually only associated with contact education. Students are guided throughout the learning process with series of short recorded videos on each topic, practice questions, live (day and evening) group online discussions as well as one-on-one live online discussions with lecturers,' adds Olivier. 'We also track students' behavioural analytics so that we can deliver personalised learning and engage students proactively, sometimes before they even realise they need support.' He noted that the programme's website includes full details and videos explaining how the programme works at http://OnlineCTA.Milpark.ac.za as well as details for applications and queries. 'In its role in promoting quality assurance in accounting education, and in terms of its current recognition and standing with the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors (IRBA), one of SAICA's key roles is to accredit programmes which allows students access to SAICA's first professional examination, the Initial Test of Competence (ITC),' says Mandi Olivier, Senior Executive for Professional Development at SAICA. 'For programmes to be accredited by SAICA, higher education providers undergo a rigorous and extensive process to ensure that their programme has the necessary resources in place to deliver a high-quality programme leading to a CA(SA) qualification. These quality assurance processes are undertaken over and above the formal regulatory accreditation requirements of the DHET, CHE and SAQA which need to be in place before getting the SAICA stamp of approval. Having undergone the formal accreditation process, we are confident that the Milpark Education's postgraduate diploma is backed by the necessary resources to meet the standards set by SAICA.' On the 29th May 2019, IT News Africa will host the 4th annual Education Innovation Summit at the Hilton Hotel, Sandton. This year's conference will focus on the exploration of emerging educational technology trends and aim to provide solutions to technological challenges within education.

| Judge’s absence stalls Bauchi governor-elect’s arraignment Posted: 29 Apr 2019 11:46 AM PDT
Mohammed, who was elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), was scheduled to be arraigned on a fresh six counts, bordering on false declaration of assets and giving false information to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). At the court, Mohammed and his counsel and the EFCC counsel were present but the court did not sit because the judge, was on election petition duty in Abeokuta, Ogun State. Counsel for the EFCC, Mr Wahab Shittu, while speaking with newsmen, said:"the EFCC is an anti-corruption agency, it does not play politics. "It exists to serve the public." On the arraignment, he said "It is a matter that was ongoing before another judge who has now been elevated to the Court of Appeal. The expectation he said was that the matter would soon be reassigned to another judge. "Just a week ago, the registry of this court sent us a notice that today has been fixed for the re-arraignment of the defendant. "It was not at the instance of the court. "You know when a case is transferred to another court, it starts de novo (afresh)." He added that no one should see what was happening as an attempt by the EFCC to intimidate anyone. "Let us focus on the matter before the court. EFCC exists to serve everybody," he said. In This Story:#EFCC #BalaMohammed #WahabShittu #PDP #YusufHaliru Sharing Is Caring. Share This Story  | ||

| Oyo APC factional group calls for fresh congress, new exco Posted: 29 Apr 2019 11:37 AM PDT  Following the lost suffered at the last general election, a factional group within the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) in Oyo state, known as Reformers has called for the immediate dissolution of the party executives from the ward to state level to pave way for a more popular and proactive executives to run the party affairs. The group also disagreed with the party chairmen at the local government level that the party lost the last election in the state as a result of overconfidence and electoral fraud. In a statement issued by the group's secretary, Mr Sulaimon Ramon, the Reformers noted that the party lost the election due to imposition of candidates, lack of internal democracy, internal wrangling and high handed of the governor. The group further condemns the call by the party chairmen at the LG level to make the party's governorship candidate in the just concluded election, Mr Adebayo Adelabu the state party leader as well as nominated state candidate for ministerial slot. The statement reads in parts, "We lost the election to imposition of candidates, lack of internal democracy, internal wrangling, high handedness by the governor and the incompetence of the party executive under Chief Akin Oke. "What Oyo state APC needs now is a college of tested and patriotic party leaders under the leadership of a tested leader with credibility, sound knowledge of politics, grassroots mobilization, kindness and an army of loyal supporters. It is far from being a responsibility of a political greenhorn like Adelabu." The group accused the party chairmen of making the statement as a payback to the former governorship candidate after he released the buses used for the last election at their various local governments to them. It advised the chairmen to understand that the party is bigger than individual greed and interest of each and every one of them, noting that "this was the way they hailed and shouted Sheu until Ajimobi led us to the present dungeon." The APC Reformers however advised the national leadership of the party to note that with the statement credited to the party chairmen at the local government level, they have not learnt from the latest avoidable failure at the election and they are yet to retrace their steps for future success. It then called for the immediate dissolution of the party's entire executive from the ward to the state to pave way for integration, harmonization and a fresh democratic congress which will "usher in a pragmatic, populist and proactive executive."
