Painter, 27, arraigned for allegedly defiling student,14

 A 27-year-old painter, Jamiu Kamorudeen, was on Wednesday arraigned for allegedly defiling a 14-year-old secondary school student. The accused, a resident of No. 7, Edita St., Alakoro, Ebute-Ero on Lagos Island, is facing a two-count charge of conspiracy and defilement at a Tinubu Magistrates’ Court.

He, however, denied the charges. The Prosecutor, Sgt. Aondohemba Koti, told the court that the painter committed the offence alongside an accomplice, who is now at large, at 8:00 p.m., on April 26 at Oke Arunde St., Lagos Island.
He said the accused had an unlawful carnal knowledge of the 14-year-old student (names withheld) without her consent. According to the prosecutor, the victim was sent by her aunt to collect a crate of empty bottles of soft drinks from the accused.

“While on her way, Kamorudeen, who had connived with his accomplice, lured the complainant into a secluded place where they raped her after they had overpowered her. “Kamorudeen’s accomplice covered their victim’s mouth with a clothe to prevent her from raising an alarm that could have alerted passers-by about their action,” Koti said.

The prosecutor said that the student reported the crime to her aunt immediately after the incident. Koti said that the victim’s aunt also reported the incident to the police authorities which led to the arrest of the accused. The prosecutor said the offences contravened Sections 137 and 409 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.

Section 137 states that, “Any person who has sexual intercourse with a child is guilty of a felony and is liable to imprisonment for life.” The Magistrate, Mrs Salama Matepo, granted the accused bail in the sum of N200,000 with two sureties in like sum and adjourned the case to May 20, for mention.

7 Skills You Can Learn In School That Can Set You Up For Success In Life

Most skills necessary for one to succeed in life are what can be developed while in school. The reason is that the school environment provides the atmosphere for these skills to be developed. That means you don’t need to wait till you are out of school to start developing and perfecting these critical success skills. These skills may not be part of the usual school curriculum but like I said earlier, the school environment provides the settings for these success skills to be developed. It would however take a deliberate and conscious effort on your part as a student to develop these skills. Here are 7 success skills you can learn in school to set your self up for success in life;

Goal Setting: Your success in real life will depend on knowing what you truly want and taking the responsibility towards achieving it. If you don’t really know what your objective is, then it does not matter whether you win or lose. Students should learn the art of goal setting, for instance you should have a goal for every study time (What you have to achieve before your study hour ends). Those who acquire good grades in school usually are those who decided to do so right from the very beginning. Plan ahead! What grade do you want to achieve? What skills do you want to acquire? Be clear on what you want. This is a critical success factor.

Time Management: Distractions are inevitable on daily basis. Life in school is no different. To ensure that one productively maximizes time, one needs to prioritize. Being busy isn’t the same as being effective. As a student organize and plan how long you spend on specific activities. Effective students understand the importance of their time in school. Therefore they prioritize their daily activities. There must be time for study, leisure and other activities. Prioritizing and scheduling your daily activities creates a sense of responsibility and urgency. Start now to learn the discipline of time management. You will be glad you did.

People Skills and Team work: what I am referring to here is building relationships of trust, respect and productive interactions. Relationships plays a major role in life. It is often said, it’s not what you know, but WHO you know. It is important to build and maintain strong and positive relationships and networks. The school environment is one that should help us appreciate the positive impacts others can make in our lives. It is a good place to develop skills that will enable you work and network with others effectively.

Effective Study Skills: To study effectively does not necessarily mean to study for hours rather it is about studying smart. It does not mean cramming as many students do. As a student question what you are reading or being taught and seeking to understand how it applies to practical life experiences. It demands you to open your mind to knowledge and ideas outside your academic discipline or field. There is difference between formal education and self-education. Formal education ends the moment you are out of school. Self-education is for a whole life time.

Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving: An important goal of education is helping students learn how to think more productively. That is, the ability to generate and evaluate ideas. This demands you to be analytical, open minded, inquisitive and able to use your imagination. In school one is giving problems to solve which require you to apply the power of your mind . Critical thinking and problem-solving is something that has to be built over time. You can start now to develop these skills by taking on problems as they come and finding solutions, instead of shying away from them. It will enable you to always see possibilities where others see only dead-ends.

Communication Skills: One goal of education is to enable students communicate what they know. Communication skills which include reading, writing, listening are very essential in today’s world. Apart from reading and writing presentations, reports and speeches are a part of every school curriculum. This should be able to help a student develop skills on communication. Most students tend to shy away from presentations and seminars. What they have not realized is the importance of these skills in every day life.

Financial Intelligence: That you are still a student is no reason for you not to save and invest. If as a student you are already heavily indebted, you are setting yourself up for failure. As a student think of an idea that will earn you a passive income or multiply the little you’ve saved. Many of the successful entrepreneurs and investors today built the platform for their success back in their school days.

A Guide For First Year Engineering Students In The University

You just got accepted into the University which is the college of your dreams? or that safety school? it doesn’t matter, you have decided to spend your next few years there to study engineering. However, you don’t have a clue what you are doing. You don’t know which field of engineering is right for you, you have no idea how difficult it is to find internships.
How exactly do you get through your first year of college life as an engineering student?

These are suggested steps that could guide you
throughout your stay in college;

1. Quit procrastinating
This is the most common vice that limits Engineering
students in achieving their goals. As a student of this
highly tasking discipline, you are going to realize that you have a lot less time on your hands. If you want your 4.0 GPA, to actually contribute to your club, to obtain internships in the future, to have time for your friends and time to yourself, time to have fun, and time to clean laundry – you need to quit procrastinating.

Not only are classes going to get harder in the university, but you are going to have other responsibilities (perhaps even more important than grades) that will consume your time. In this
discipline, time is very essential.

2. Explore the different disciples in engineering
Overtime it’s been proven that a lot of first timers do not know much about different types of engineering and probably have no idea which field is right for them. Those who know their engineering fields and are adamant that they want to be a chemical engineer may find themselves questioning their choice after taking organic chemistry classes. Regardless of your knowledge of the various types of engineering, it’s important to keep an open mind.

There are many factors to consider while choosing an
engineering specialization: future job demand, programs
at your college, your own interest, etc. Most schools offer introductory courses which can expose you to a few of the different types of engineering.

We think the best way to find what is absolutely right for you is to be directly involved with engineering clubs, have a professor tell you about his/her research, or talk to engineering upperclassmen about their classes. The earlier you identify what interests you the better; this way you waste less time taking the wrong classes and have more opportunities to join programs related to your chosen field.

Remember that leaving engineering is also an option.
University is supposed to expose you to all different
fields, in addition to the different types of engineering.

Perhaps you may find your true passion in medicine or
even literature.

3. Choose your college friends
It is believed that most people can be happy in any school that they go to, provided that they find meaningful people as college friends. These people are going to grow with you and they will be very influential in your life for the next four years.

Your first few weeks of college life are going
to be filled with extremely friendly people. Take
advantage of that. No other time in college will people be so open to meeting you. However, remember that the friends you make in the first weeks will not necessarily be the college friends that remain with you a few years later.

4. Seek out additional opportunities for growth
In high school, having a high GPA defined success (more
or less). That changes tremendously in college. It is not to say that grades aren’t important, but that other parts of life will come into play. Landing an internship is probably more important than obtaining A’s in every one of the classes. Learning soft skills such as communication (by communication, I don’t just mean having the ability to talk to the opposite gender) will greatly expand your network of influential people. Speaking of networks, having a
group of influential people around will help you greatly in your future. See what I mean? It’s no longer just about the grades; it's also about your reputation as a hard worker, your ability to sweet-talk an interviewer, and your desire
to improve yourself.

5. Don’t dismiss other subject areas Something that is common within the engineering community is that they think we're the best on campus.

Engineering students then to think that they are the
smartest bunch because our engineering predecessors
invented the modern world. We think we’re the most hard-working because while the “arts and crafts” (A.K.A. arts and sciences) people are hanging out, we’re studying how electrons work. Don’t do that. It’s good that you invented the first flying refrigerator machine, too bad you didn’t listen to your business major college friends about how there is no market for that.

Lastly, going crazy after leaving home (forever) is part of the first-year experience. But don’t go too crazy.

Remember, you only have a few years at a university, so
be sure to make the most out of them. I’m not telling you not to have fun – by all means, your first year of college life is when you’re supposed to go crazy – but don’t make choices you’ll regret. There are a lot of opportunities, people to meet, and most of all, distance to grow; it’d be a shame to waste four years throwing ping pong balls around in a basement.
