UNIZIK STUDENT EMERGES TOPS IN CHINA

A student of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka, Anthony Ekwensi, has been crowned the African champion at the 17th Chinese Bridge Chinese Language Proficiency Competition for Foreign College Students.

The grand finale of the competition took place on August 4 in Changsha, Hunan Province where Russian student Ruslan was the overall winner at the event which paraded 152 students from 118 countries.

The 21-year old Anambra-born Nigerian, who came fourth in the final competition, made it to the last round of the championship with four other contestants who were also crowned champion of their respective continents.

The other winners were Theodore Joseph from Australia who came second, Guan Huimin from Indonesia, who took the third position and John Gardner from the United States, who placed fifth. According to the organisers, the final competition consisted of three parts and tested the finalists’ language skills and all-around abilities, including their knowledge of Chinese culture, history, traditions and communication, as well as their singing and acting skills.

All five winners have been offered full scholarships by the Confucius Institute. In a telephone interview with NAN from China, Ekwensi, a final year student of Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK), Awka, Anambra State, said he looked forward to returning to China to pursue a post-graduate programme.

‘‘I went into the competition because I knew there was an opportunity to do something great, and also I wanted an opportunity to visit the country I’ve always dreamed of going. My next plan now is to graduate successfully from UNIZIK and then come back to China for masters. I dedicate my award to God,’’ the final year student of Education Management and Policy.

Ekwensi learnt the Chinese language in Nigeria for two years at the Confucius Institute, UNIZIK, Awka.

Ordinary Time: August 11th Memorial of St. Clare, virgin

Ordinary Time: August 11th
Memorial of St. Clare, virgin

St. Clare of Assisi was the first woman to practice the life of entire poverty as taught by St. Francis. Placed by him at the head of a few companions in the small convent of San Damiano, she governed her community for forty-two years thus founding at the gates of Assisi the Order of Poor Clares. Their Rule included austerities hitherto unknown in monasteries of women. They went barefoot, slept on the ground, kept perpetual abstinence and made poverty the basis of their lives. St. Clare died on August 11, 1253, and was canonized two years after her death.

Unizik Sale of Pre-Science Forms for 2017/2018 Programme: by kaka prince

Unizik Sale of Pre-Science Forms for 2017/2018 Programme

This is to duly inform all aspirants who are interested in applying for the 2018 session of the Unizik Prescience program that the unizik prescience/pre-degree forms are currently on sale.

The form is sold for #8,000 and obtainable in all banks located within the school (NAU) Awka campus.

QUALIFICATION:
The minimum academic qualification is five O’ Level credits which will include English, Mathematics and any other three relevant sciences subjects in SSCE, NECO, GCE and NABTEB at not more than two sittings.

Note :admission into the Pre-science Programme is strictly based on first come, first served policy and candidates must have made at least 5 credits.

I take myself as example, although I was an "A" student before I went for that Programme yet I was transformed to the extent that I could read 10 hrs non-stop. So if you are unable to gain admission this year you have an ample opportunity to show the world that you are not a dullard and never will YOU be

Also the Programme is meant for science students only!!! I know that the question that will be ringing in the minds of many readers of this publication is how much does the Programme cost? Well, it costs just #44,000 for those who made their result at a sitting, but #45,000 for those who want to combine results

For any assistance call me 08147377067
