- The colleges are spread across 15 different states

- These two lucky teens have also received scholarships of over N288 million

Twins take to social media to celebrate with the world after they received a staggering 40 college acceptance letters from 15 different states combined.

Akhya and Akhea Mitchell went to Troup County Comprehensive High School in LaGrange, Georgia, and reportedly earned a 4.5 GPA and 3.9 GPA respectively.

According to their viral Facebook post, the acceptances have also come with scholarships of over N288 million (about US$900,000).

It was probably not easy choosing which university to go to, as most of the 40 colleges that want to see them in their campuses are said to be highly placed in the global league table.

However, the twins have decided to go to Howard University.

President Buhari’s re-election chances are as tall as El-Rufai - Reno Omokri

It is no longer news that President Buhari has declared his interest to seek a second term in office, much to the secret chagrin of his side kick, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, who, though he feigns delight at the President’s decision, is secretly disappointed. His over ambition is very well known in power circles and he was hoping that the President would stand down and instead pick him as his proxy. But that is not my focus for this piece. My focus is the reason the President gave for wanting to be re-elected President. A statement released by the Presidency, “the President said he was responding to the clamour by Nigerians to re-contest in 2019.” Notice the language. The President is not running because he has a good record of achievement (he does not). He is not running because he has plans to implement (again, he does not). He is also not running because he has unfinished projects to complete. President Buhari instead is running because of the “clamour by Nigerians”...

The Central Bank of Nigeria CBN, has pegged the maximum transfer from mobile phones using short codes at N100,000. According to a statement from the director, banking and payment system of CBN, Dipo Fatokun, the decision was made because of the risk associated with mobile banking.
