MajesticKris:
Who set the questions,?

lolz, maybe his fellow colleagues, or it will be contracted to an examination body, mind you the examination will not include his own course, questions like how to handle the task of a VC and other areas like current affairs, public service rules etc.

Kyase:


I can understand the part where you said, the examination is a pure politics to put a tiv man as the coming vc, in fact I asked the same question the last time, why an idoma won't be allow to be vc
But the part where you say, the idomas are the smartest, got me laughing, dude like seriously.
I have never seen a brilliant idoma boy or girl in my life.
I did my secondary school in benue, I was in the same class with many idoma peps, none could smell the tivs performance (I'm not saying they don't have smart or intelligent ones)
I also met some idomas in the higher institution in kaduna, those ones sef I no go talk their mata.
As it's known, in the whole of the middlebelt, the tivs are the educationists

To be honest all de idomas in UNN I know came out with first class. In Jos fgc idomas are brighter than tivs one million times. Abeg leave ur trash statement for lawma

classicfrank4u:
The exam hard die

lolz.

Kendumazy:
This does not really make sense. Setting exams for 20 years experience and 3 years experience VC. The question cannot tally based on their experience naaw. To all those who failed, i don't consider them failed. I consider them cunningly removed.

Simply put, he's not up to date to new innovations, some of them will use materials for 20 years to lecture in this present dispensation.

Badooguy:
Same way the prof doesn't know how to calculate in election, but to make money and will still fail student that even try his/her best. The only time profs in Nigeria pass exams, is INEC election results after making more money.

hahahah, funny.

Yahksbiz:
buhari government will not be happy with this

why?

Fussion1000:


Professors that had been written papers for local and international journals, failed competence test.

Stop defending trash pls, the examiner will not ask them their core fields of studies but universal questions cum management/administrative skills.

Under normal circumstance, a lecturer, even if he/she is a "graduate assistant" is supposed to know and aware of new developments in schools, societies and world in generally, one of expectations from their employers is to do research and conversant with happenings in the society.

Sure, he should be good in communicative and adminstrative skills, plus current affairs and Public service rules, he should also be conversant with the knowledge of computer.

All the idomas okay na
Oga how many idomas you know, and how many students in general graduate with first class.

You also said they are brighter than the tivs one million times, hahahahahaha.
It's either you yourself na idoma or you dey shine one of their ladies Congo.
Idoma aren't proud of the heritage, typical example is yourself.
The igede sef dey shine pass una for that constituency

Cmanforall:
What kind of questions are asked?

I need to start preparing for tomorrow.

hahahha, read wide o.

DeeTweenie:
Some are to fail to others to be promoted.
That's life

Sure, after all, Directors do fail promotion exam to permanent secretary.

NwaIgboBoy:
i think Benue state is home of David Mark formal Senate presdo?

that man looted Nigeria dry in his regime

hahahah, you are correct.

Matrimonous:
Hmmmmm, what will their students be saying right now?
I can't shout.

lolz.

anastasius:

I've always had questions about inaugural lectures. Is it a must or optional to present one as a professor? Also why would one decide not to present?

A professor must present inaugural lectures, it's like a way of making them to be up to date with new inventions, some don't present because they feel they have arrived.

Gordonz07:

Your name defines your type of person already. You never did social studies in primary and junior secondary school. Hausa isn't used in any of the schools within Benue State. Not even the tertiary institutions. So, next time get it right before you start flying around like a pig.

hahahah, funny.

fergie001:

They should have withdrawn.
Why set examinations for Professors in the selection for VC'ship?
The Professors who even wrote the exam don't know their worth @ all.
I doubt if they know what they Profess in the first place.

It is obviously skewed to favour someone.

Exam is not a crime, every vacancy in the civil service must be filled with exam or interview, but in this case they are using both

Lecturebidz:

Your comment reeks of gangrenous ignorance! Hausa ke?

The problem is that most people would end up believing that.

mechanics:
Sure, simply put, he should not only read his own area of specialisation, he should have the knowledge of other courses, what of civil servants who write exams before being promoted to the next grade?

For the sake of fairness, whoever sets the questions should let those that are to write the answers know the scope or area of concentration. Something like scheme of work for students in a term or semester.

Mowsid:
Aliegba questioned the criteria that required the candidates to write examination. He argued that it was unfair for a professor of over 25 years standing to write an examination with another professor who has just two or three years’ experience, insisting that there must be a set standard.

To some extent this is true, years of experience matter alot in the system

He very much right, but na the Nigeria factor dey in play like this.

BennyDGreat:


The exam could be based on management of a University. The Vice Chancellor is a manager of resources being allocated to the institution. If you lack management skill, you can't be a successful Vice Chancellor

Not only management skill, communication skills will also be there.

IVORY2009:



Lolzzzzz this is not an excuse, a professor should be well verse in all aspects of academic studies, that is reason he or she is called a professor.

I concur.

garfield1:


What other method should have been used

Don't mind him.

mechanics:
why?

is that a question or a challenge?

this the same people refuse to open school for students to begin lecturs while they can't handle common exams. one was even saying they should find a modality for the appointment of CV like 9him papa get the school.

buhari should not even answer them. las las they would soon be replaced.

psucc:
Please someone should post sample of the question paper. I want to attempt answering them.

lolz, funny.

Exam for a Professor?
....for a Professor?
So promotion in the academic staff unit for a Professor in the University is by examination, which school?

Is the University same as Civil Service?

mechanics:
hahahha, read wide o.

I have to. More reason I am preparing myself.
Somehow, I feel it won't be based on the Professor's field.

Patriotic9ja:


Well spoken. All of them that sat for the exam are saboteurs and disgrace....

Personally with my over 10years of experience in my energy industry. I cant subject myself to any exam or aptitude test if I should change job. Rather, I go for oral interviews or strictly on-the-job assessment where experience is the criteria. I did all the exams and aptitude tests back then as a fresh graduate with no experience, and passed them all back then. Now I'm an authority in my own right and should be assessed based on capacity, ability, management, and experience. I have paid my dues.

Na eye service and lack of self worth dey worry all the naughty Professors that allowed themselves to be ridiculed by the system. Imagine asking Falana to come write exam 1st. What an insult!!!!!!

It's an option of choice, so it's not compulsory for anyone to write the exam, if one does not want to be VC, then he or she can withdraw.

Okay o, good luck, remind me to tutor you to test your ability.

They are governed by civil service rules, I didn't say lecturers write exams to be promoted, at that level of VC, anything can happen, if anyone says he can't write the exam, he or she can opt out, just like the Professor withdrew from the race, it's not a must to be a VC.

That is what I am saying...there shouldn't be any exam.
This is a University System with its own rules.

And if there is an exam, no Professor worth his onion will go sit for one....Instead, they can allow the Governor pick the person of his own choosing rather than the jamboree.
