The questions people ask is another issue organizers should look at.

You don't expect someone to give you the correct answer of something she cannot relate to.

The fact that she chose to contest for this is not an opportunity for people to deliberately throw unrelated questions just to embarrass candidates and make them flop.

I'm sure that's what led to this whole issue. If I come on the interview thread today and ask a contestant a question concerning Law I can bet my phone charger that she will run to Google for answers.

None of them will tell you they don't know the answer to the questions thrown at them.

You agreed to promoe's opinion, that's why its flawed.

tosyne2much:
Let's take things easy please... To all those saying she should be disqualified, the interview is never a ground to disqualify anyone

STFUareyouG0d:
imagine o. An interview without rules and some people are here talking disqualification. Ridiculous to say the least

I weak for bones my brother. Funny thing be say some of them forget say them get candidates.

Since na to day throw difficult questions nah to storm the thread and throw my own questions make I see whether them nor go run enter Google.

@Dygeasy, I am really disappointed in you. How can you justify plagiarism

There is no justification for this. She plagiarized. It shouldn't matter whose question she was fielding. Come on, how do you hope to even strengthen the integrity of this contest by views as the one you gave which would only encourage fraudulent activities with the encouragement that it would pass except only if it had anything to do with the organizers?

She cheated, she cheated. A cheat shouldn't be justified. If she can cheat before audiences, she is liable to cheat before even the organizers. It must have been her intention until she was caught. Please, disqualify her to discourage fraud in all its many forms. This singular act might go a long way in helping our desires to achieve greatness through means devoid of fraud.

joseph1832:
Oby obyy, is that sarcasm I detect there?

Joseph.. Everything above this comment makes me dizzy, how is it plagiarism if the original writer gave consent??


Why should this be brought up if there are no stated underlying conditions and what not on which a contestant should be disqualified??...


This rivalry is sickening .. Pointless too..

ECONOMICS IS DEFINED AS A SCIENCE WHICH STUDIES HUMAN BEHAVIOUR IN RELATION BETWEEN ENDS AND SCARCE MEAN WHICH HAVE ALTERNATIVE USE.
NOW HATERS TELL ME THAT I PLAGIARISED MY DEFINITION, BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT IS in COMPREHENSIVE ECONOMICS TEXTBOOK.

Hi T,

We spoke yesternite and i didn't wanna bring this up till i saw this comment.

I wonder why this is still an issue.

You do know i write on Economic policies and i am also a part of Ivyy's advisory team, who advised her on answering said particular question. The said words being quoted on-here was taken out of a Paid Research report, as such, plagiarism is not an issue.

If someone can asked what devaluation is, it also mean i can ask the contestants to explain the working dynamics of a lathe machine (well, i studied engineering), a such, i expect them to know it too. (Don't ask my why).

I promised you one crate of cold Orijin abi?

If I asked you to give an opinionated definition of Economics and you gave someone's else's opinionated definition, you have plagiarized.

If you check the back of your Economics textbook, you are probably certain to see references to textbooks used by the writers of the Economics textbook to guide them through their presentations.

One could just imagine if it was either of the two 'front-runners' of the contest that had committed the 'offence'. Some of their mob would have been raging mad and dishing out e-slaps by now. Abeg make una take am easy o.

so says a NAIRALAND MODERATOR who's supposed to stay neutral.. i want to believe you're not responsible for all the hidden posts and threads that have iv.vy's name to them? seun, are you seeing this?

Just like me asking you a question related to PHP, MySql and Database Security ...

Creamish:
Guys... D organizers have spoken. Ivyy will not be disqualified cos it wasn't an answer to an official question.


Can we pls drop this now? Geeezzz!

Dygeasy:
LOL

StillBrandnew:

Please bring the despot.

StillBrandnew:

Just go home Miss.

Dygeasy:
I was surprised too when that question was asked.

I have tried to look for the significance of that particular question in the scheme of things but then they'll say they're testing their intelligence. Their intelligence should be tested within context honestly.

Today I will make sure nobody comes to ask the contestants to prove any one of Newton's laws of motion to avoid situations like this.

Yes, be that as it may. She did break a Nairaland rule, which is rule 9 and thus, it warrants her a very good ban. You should know the Miss Nairaland rule doesn't surpass Nairaland rule itself.

No sentiment.

I think I will answer your question. First and foremost, no one is trying to encourage other contestants to practise plagiarism. However, there were no laid down rules as regards the interview, therefore, what she did was not a ground to disqualify her.

The purpose of the interview was to introduce them to us and perhaps, increase their fan base

It would make a lot of sense if you clamour we make an interview code of conducts every contestant must abide with, and anyone who fails to adhere will be disqualified


I hope I'm making sense?
