Polytechnic Students Demand The Promised Change Now; sir, we applaud your frantic efforts directed at revamping our economy through several economic policies and measures capable of salvaging the nation's treasury from the strongholds of political robbers. With keen interest, we are following the Anti Graft Campaign, the sudden reawakening of CCT, the general increase in prices of basic foods and services-students having to pay through the nose back to their respective homes. Anyway, as objective citizens, we are still exercising patience. However, it is better to clearly point out that our vault of patience on the dehumanizing HND/ Bsc Dichotomy is exhausted. The polytechnic graduates or HND holders have been under this unjust treatment for years. As a most awaited Messiah, who rode on board of the propagated change, the immediate abolition of the discrimination against HND Certificate should be part of the flagship program. Your Excellency sir, I supposed government is a continuum ; in May 2014, the committee set up by the federal government to work on the Dichotomy between holders of HND/Bsc was inaugurated. Amongst others the committee was saddled with the task of reviewing the content and curriculum of the HND program to be equivalent to the Bachelor of Technology, such that this will grant HND holders the right to reach the highest grade level in the public service. It is no crime for your administration to consolidate on that. Also, "A Bill for an Act to abolish and prohibit Dichotomy and Discrimination between First Degree and Higher National Diploma in the same profession or Field " was sponsored by Senator Ayo Akinyelure (Ondo. Central Senatorial District ), this is an auspicious leverage to effect the desirable change. Sir, the traumatizing experience of HND Holders in their places of work, the continuing injustice, disparity and discrimination meted on products of polytechnics in Nigeria is

ok

The problem here is that even the BSc holder's don't want that... Haven't you noticed that posts on polytechnics don't get comments and they don't hit FP

Even Nairaland is discriminating
