The management of Imo State University (IMSU), Owerri has expelled about 60 students of the institution including those in final year for making below 1.00 grade points.

Those who made above 1.00 but below 1.5 grade points for the 2011/ 2012 session were asked to repeat.

The acting Vice Chancellor of IMSU, Professor Ukachukwu Aloysius Awuzie said the Senate of the Institution initiated the measure in order to encourage seriousness.

Professor Awuzie explained that they want to be sure that Imo State University Owerri regained its position as one of the best universities in the country.

He said the society will not be better if schools continue to graduate students who cannot defend their certificates.

Some students commended the authority for the new policy and stressed that the leadership of Professor Awuzie and students of Imo State University must work hard to learn and merit their certificates.

The students argued that the notice came too late as the institution had started exams.

They maintained that the school’s management should rescind the decision and allow everybody to continue; stating that it was at the detriment of any student who graduates with poor result.

good for them!

Imsu is home to dummys! Sorting lecturers is just the way forward to most of them.
Universities in the north are way better than what is obtained in some schools in the east.

How can somebody be in school and a final year student at that but can't make up to 1.00 point as a CGPa?

Okorocha should better channel state's resources to education instead of wasting govt money on boko haram and APC. Rubbish

whatever! Am proud to have graduated from IMSU.To hell with what you think of my Alma mater.

Any confirmation from imsu

IMSU

IMSU is besieged with so
many problems, most
prominent among them is its
location. The state capital in
which it is located is
saturated with all the five or
so tertiary academic
institutions in the state
located in and around it.
IMSU’s teaching hospital at
Orlu admits just a few
students a year, hence must
not be equated to a full
university that admits more
than a thousand candidates a
year. The standard of education there like every other Naija university is poor (very POOR)

I'm an IMO star though the sorting epidermic is quite ubiquitous, but wht I detested most bout imsu was the infantile panache xhibited by bulk of the students! Its pertinent to note tht even in tht bad state they seem to be more learned and cleaner than those I met in UNAAB! Ojere! N evn OSu! Pls note I'm nt being sentimental! Tis the gospel truth! My babe gradged wif a 2.1 4rm one of them n I knw shell nt b gvn same in dead IMSU.

Lots of ori gbe gbe (dumbest head). Empty vessels with lot of energies to make the loudest noise. Shiiiiior!

I remember when Jamb was jamming me and I applied to this university. They sharpaly accepted me.


God bless my mum who persuaded me to reject the offer and do Jamb again.

What language is this

Let other schools emulate from this VC, is a welcome development in the right direction

What a comment! Na wa o!

pDude: What language is this

Swahili! Product of IMSU

Good for them, but wait!

What made the school management think that its all those that had a very high GP will or can defend it? or are lecturers not collecting bribe again?

And to the students, what kind of silly excuse would u give for scoring below 2.0 in a 5.0 gp rated skul? Inshot 3.5 should be d lowest sef, wetin u go do for school, nd now u are complaining that the school authority did'nt inform you to sit up....

Of all sha, its good, i hope its adopted for all universities...

You dey mind that one? He has time to type those irrelevant vocabularies but no time to complete the simple English which is understood by everyone. Shiiiiior!

they are all product of exam run, so many of them have no business being in school in the first place.

I see no reason. a graduate of a discipline can define a single terminology in his field.
until we stop the craze for certificate, we ain't going anywhere as a nation.

Yomieluv: they are all product of exam run, so many of them have no business being in school go the first place.

LMAOOOOOO!!!!! Many of them will make good drug dealers or bricklayers.

Tell me more jare

Did i just see a cgpa of 1.0? As in 1.0! Choi! These people should leave school and continue with their spare part business kwanu.

I can bet my cent that 50 percent of them are on Nairaland

Spot on! You lot are ignoring the substance and chasing shadows. The Acting VC who was a former ASUU chairman has taken a positive step, yet people are attacking the school instead of lauding his efforts at salvaging what is left of the institution. Anyone who attacks IMSU is indirectly attacking the whole Nigerian Universities cos they all have the same modus operandi or even worse.


The last time I checked, IMSU is the undisputed number one State University in Nigeria and 10th overall. Although i'm not sure where it currently stands.



...and YES! Lake Nwaebere is my Alma Mater, Thank You!
