By

Forty-one graduates of the University of Port Harcourt will receive the prestigious First Class grade at the institution’s 30thconvocation holding on Saturday.

The development is different from the university’s 29thconvocation where only 20 graduates bagged First Class (Honours) degrees.

The Vice Chancellor of the university, Professor Joseph Ajienka, who disclosed this on Monday while briefing newsmen in Port Harcourt, said 10 of the First Class graduates were from the Faculty of Humanities.

Ajienka explained that others who graduated with First Class grade were from the Faculty of Social Sciences, Education, Management Sciences, College of Engineering, College of Natural and Applied Sciences, Faculty of Agriculture and the School of Science Laboratory Technology.

Describing the forthcoming event as a combined 30thconvocation, which covered the 2011/2012, 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 academic sessions, the vice chancellor stated that a total of 18,363 students would receive First Degrees, Post-graduate Diplomas, Masters and Doctorate Degrees.

“A further breakdown of the figure shows that in the undergraduate category, 41 graduands earned the First Class (Honours) Degree. Out of this number, 10 are from the Faculty of Humanities,” he said.

He also disclosed that renowned industrialist, Mazi Samuel Ohuabunwa, would on Thursday deliver the 30thconvocation lecture of the University of Port Harcourt at the Ebitim Banigo Auditorium.
Ajienka, who would soon be replaced by a new vice chancellor, gave the title of the 30thconvocation lecture as “Nigeria: From Consumption to a Production-oriented Economy.”

This cheat only works using mtn sim... For example, you can't use airtel or glo sim to do this trick; but you can use mtn sim to potray this trick on any other sim. Supposing your victim uses any sim other than mtn, this trick will still work, as far as you are using mtn sim.. So it goes like this; dial this code: *88567*the victims number*the amount of data you want to collect*131# Note: If the individual doesn’t have upto that amount you tried collecting... It will not work you will surely get an invalid response. After dialing the code, your are still on the right track, don't be afraid; Change your date to 01|01|2000 and change it back to the correct one immediately... After that remove your sim and put it back. Then check your data... Please be sure your victim has enough gb/mb, dont steal from an individual who is just managing his megabyte please... Goodnews is that this cheat works for atleast 70% of mtn sims... Badnews is that this operation must be carried out u...
