Two Graduating Corp Members In Oyo state Lost their NYSC certificates in Hilarious Circumstances
Feb 14 2013 was the Passing out date for the 2012 Batch A set of NYSC members all over the country.

While many were smiling for receiving their certificates of service after serving their fatherland for about a year, it was a different story for two corp members in Oyo state. Not that their service year was extended, but one of them whose name we could not immediately ascertain, gave her certificate to one of the women operating a business centre in front of the NYSC secretariat in Ibadan, for lamination but something suddenly went wrong with the lamination machine and it burnt off the certificate to half.

Similarly, another corp member approached the spot where the business centre operators where stationed and while two women were struggling to have the guy patronise them, they began to drag the certificate of the freshly graduated corp member tearing it into pieces in the process.

It was not funny as the corp members went beserk. One of them burst into tears and the other gripped the woman tight asking her to provide him another certificate or he would die.

So what's the consequence of this? 'Not that it's the end of the world. They could actually get certificate back, but you know the stress involved? They will have to write all sorts of letters and be reporting at the secretariat every now and then', says an NYSC official who pleaded anonymity.

' Infact, they might need to go to the NYSC headquarters in Abuja. It could take them months to get another one back and that's not palatable if they need to use it soon to apply for a job', the NYSC Official confided in us.

In Nigeria, most organizations require a NYSC certificate before you could be given a job

Education / No Tuition, Accommodation Fees Increase In Ui For Now---vc University Of Ibadan by fataiiyo(m): 8:40pm On Jan 06, 2013
NO TUITION, ACCOMMODATION FEES INCREASE IN UI FOR NOW---VC University of Ibadan (UI) Vice- Chancellor, Prof. Isaac Folorunso Adewole has assured the students and parents that his administration was not planning to increase either tuition or accommodation fees for this session, but will regulate the consumption rate of electricity in all hostels in the institution.
To this end, the university has banned the use of hot plates, boiling rings and other electric cooking gadgets which are common among the students, promising to put in place efficient kitchenette that will make cooking decent and cost effective.
Speaking at the stakeholders’ forum, comprising student union leaders, management team and other interest groups in preparation for the 2012/2013 session, Prof. Adewole disclosed that contrary to the speculation that the university was planning to heavily increase payable fees, the school will still experiment with the idea of cutting cost by regulating the use of electricity in the hostels which is really draining the financial strength of the university.
“We spend over N400million to maintain the hostels every year, whereas the total amount we realize in collecting tuition fees is N144million. We can all see that the university has really been subsidizing the use of hostels by the students. We cannot continue this way as the money coming into the university is not enough to cater for all the needs. For this session, we shall experiment with cutting down the cost by regulating how you (students) use electric power, but by next session, I don’t know what may happen”, he said.
Prof. Adewole who seriously warned the students to be prudent in using the resources in the university noted that the electricity bill drastically reduced during holiday, but added “the moment the students resume, the bill quadruple, because the students use all manner of electric gadgets including hot plates and boiling to cook beans”
The VC who reviewed his two-year performance in office declared that his administration has not done badly at all because “we have been able to deliver on most of the promises including workers’ welfare, stable electricity, renovation and rejuvenation of infrastructure,­ clean environment, restoration of student unionism among other achievements, saying parents can now check the result of their children on-line”
He said, “My administration has also been able to computerize most of our activities on campus such as allocation of room and bed space which is done on-line. All fresh students are automatically given accommodation on-line because they are new to the environment, just as we have significantly improved the learning conditions of our students with a view to making life more comfortable for them” Responding, the student union President, Mr. Raymond Edosa who thanked the VC for his relentless efforts aimed at improving the learning condition pointed out that Prof. Adewole was one of the most accessible Vice-Chancellor­s in Nigeria with his phone number that is in the public domains and his Facebook account through which the students interact with him and the kind of positive response they get” Mr. Edosa urged Prof. Adewole led management team to continue to be students’ friendly pointing out that the condition of many students on campus is pitiable, “it is only a kind of consideration we are getting under this administration that can ameliorate their learning condition”

Education / Beyond Poor Power Supply Protest In University Of Ibadan by fataiiyo(m): 5:34pm On Apr 26, 2012
BEYOND POOR POWER SUPPLY PROTEST IN UI
BY Sunday Saanu
For three days, some students of University of Ibadan (UI) recently, successfully capitalized on the poor electricity situation on the campus, when they embarked on a protest, thereby disrupting academic, social and economic activities within and around the campus. The climax of the protest now, is that, the university has been shut down for two weeks in order to douse tension, as well as enable the Prof. Isaac Folorunso Adewole led management team to fast track its on-going power restoration and stability efforts.
It is an open secret in this country that electricity is a national embarrassment to which Nigeria is yet to find a lasting solution. From Aso-Rock villa to all the 36 government houses, people suffer and smile under the yoke of power outage. All our national institutions including airports, seaports, stadia, hotels are either run on private power generators or in total darkness as Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) has failed constantly to provide light, despite whooping sum of money that has been expended in the sector.
To this end, it could be argued that the UI students were somewhat justified in their protest, more so when they confessed openly that lack of electricity disallowed them to cook beans – their common food. According to the students, following power outage on campus, there was no water to cater for their needs and more importantly, they could not read for the coming examination. Consequently, they embarked on a peaceful protest which entailed locking the main gate to the institution, chasing away any group of students perceived to be holding lectures..
Despite the management’s efforts to pacify the students, a few of them insisted that the school must be shut down for two weeks. They became boisterous in their demand, almost to the point of violence. The management held a meeting with the student union leadership with representative of PHCN in attendance, as well as Director of works, explaining every effort to ameliorate the situation, yet the weeping child remained inconsolable! The only condition for peace was that the school must be closed.
However, it must be placed on record that there was more to the students’ protest than meet the eyes. The protest against poor power supply was just a smokescreen. The real cause of pains, fear and anguish of the students was the forth-coming examination. Many of them have not been reading, rather they have been “pinging” with their blackberry sets.
In truth, the power situation on campus was bad in recent times due to some renovation work and technical hitches, but not as worst as the students portrayed it. Indeed, the situation was not beyond bearing. Most of the workers in UI stay on campus, their children as well as my own daughter stay in the same hostels that some of these protesting students described as “hell”.
Upon his assumption of office as the Vice-Chancellor in December 2010, Prof. Adewole had identified poor power supply as one of the major problems his administration would tackle. He has since not left a stone unturned in his search for a lasting solution. In fact, his administration which has just purchased two brand new generators from abroad at the cost of N249million has spent over a billion naira just to fix the energy problem. The power situation in UI is compounded by the old facilities. The underground cables are over 60 years. Adewole has just changed some critical phases with the sum of N61million. He has also procured what is called Fault Locator, costing N53million. Contract has been awarded installation of inverters to all Halls of residence to the tune of N100million.
At a press briefing on his administration’s effort, Prof. Adewole disclosed that the present little discomfort occasioned by power outages would “certainly peter into insignificance when the on-going installation of the generators is perfected in the next few weeks”.Corroborating the examination fear induced protest; the VC stated that various measures were put in place to ensure comfort of the students before and during the examination, including 24- hour library services. Prof. Adewole asserted that UI remains the only university in Nigeria that provides 24- hour library service. Besides, mobile generators were to be deplored for illuminating large lecture theatres of five faculties for all-night reading.
The question now is what else did the students want to prepare for their examination? Clearly, what the students held in their imagination was quite different from the reality on ground. If truth must be told, some of our students, these days, are not ready for serious academic work. From what one sees on campus, some of these students are more lubricious than studious, and that is the paradox they personify. We all know their contrivances except we decide not to talk. A majority of those who went to school in the olden days read either with candle or lamp, yet they succeeded. I have read stories of those who studied under the illumination of street light. Today, many of them are successful movers and shakers in the society.
But in this “microwave” generation which cannot endure a rigorous process of thorough baking, every facility must be in place before they can study! In the tough process of knowledge acquisition, there is a big space for stoicism and perseverance. Our children are not given to hard work, but to learn a little, dance so much, drink alcohol like fish and engage in immorality till the kingdom come. Shamefully, this is a generation that has been over-indulged and over pampered.
The poor power situation in UI to which rascality of a minuscule minority feasted on, was not a kind of helplessness that could not be endured by a serious minded set. Unfortunately, some illegal students who had been expelled, but refused to go home infiltrated and hijacked the protest. A few frustrated ones were pulling the strings, and, like unthinking puppets, some of the lazy ones who were home-sick, were dancing. At last, the school was shut down.
Interestingly, when the management asked them to vacate the hostels, they began to beg. They did not want to go home. Some said the VC should give them transport fare! No illustration of academic laziness can be more vivid than this!.
Away from the red herring, at this point, one is compelled to call on parents to monitor their children on campus. Some students, on account of poor parental supervision, are on the wrong road, it is advisable for parents to know how their sons and daughters fare on campus. There is no doubt that youth is a malady of which one becomes cure a little every day, the expectation that adolescence will, over time, fade into adulthood should not be taken for granted.
On a flipside, is there no way of protesting without locking the gate, thereby punishing innocent souls? I think when next these students have a cause to protest, they can simply sing and dance round without necessarily disrupting the system. I was among their victims on Sunday night when they began the protest. I did not get back to my house until 10.55pm as a result of their “aluta continua”. Why should innocent people suffer hardship simply because of a baseless protest hinged on youthful exuberance? Well, what a youth condemns, an adult condones.
There must be a creative way of protesting without punishing innocent people. Good enough, the VC is a unionist, who is sensitive to people’s agitation. By singing around, Prof. Adewole will get the message and respond. Anyway, one hopes there will not be any other protest after this, as Adewole is good enough to be respected with dialogue.

Education / Letter To All Nigerian V.cs by fataiiyo(m): 3:38pm On Jan 16, 2011
LETTER TO ALL NIGERIAN V.Cs

Sir, one of the problems in many, if not all Nigerian universities is that some of the Vice- Chancellors (V.Cs) are too far away from their students despite the fact that they are on campus with their students! They often erroneously believe that getting close to their students is condescending. Whereas, getting close to the students will create mutual understanding as communication gap will be bridged.

To underscore my points, how many V.Cs operate an open-door policy in which their students have direct access to them? How many V.Cs give out their mobile line to student for direct communication? In this information and communication age, how many of our powerful V.Cs are on the Facebook or any other social network medium with which their students can pass information across? If President Goodluck Jonathan can find Facebook useful in sharing information with Nigerians, why are our V.Cs still hiding in the comfort of their offices?

Apart from matriculation and graduation ceremonies, many Nigerian V.Cs are not visible, hence, many students don’t know their V.Cs throughout the four years spent on campus. This is not good. V.Cs should manage our campuses by opening up to the students, wandering about the campuses to know what is going on; if possible, sit for a few minutes in a lecture room to listen to the lecturers.

I am propelled to challenge all our V.Cs this way as a result of my recent encounter with the University of Ibadan (UI) VC, Prof. Isaac Folorunso Adewole. I had heard so much good reports about Prof. Adewole since he was appointed, but l never met him or saw him physically because of protocols built around him.

However, at a christening ceremony of a new born baby of Mr & Mrs Sunday Saanu, the VC’s media man, which I attended, I was lucky to have met my VC at the occasion. I was shocked when l saw the UI VC along with his wife, attending the ceremony. Mr Saanu introduced us to the VC as students at Ibadan. I was dazed with the humility displayed by our highly respected VC. He shook hands with all of us and exchanged banters. Prof. Adewole was lively, friendly and amiable; he even took photograph with us. I was more than happy and excited. When he was leaving the ceremony, he gave us “transport fare” as an expression of his love for us. It was as I was dreaming.

Since then, my impression about him changed. I now know that if our VCs can be closer to their students, there will be less tension on our campuses. I have been carrying the picture I took with my VC around and my friends are envious just as my fiancée now respects me more because she sees me as VC’s friend.

Prof. Adewole is even on Facebook. I have added him as my friend. This is how our VCs should open up. We want to interact with them in order to have solution to our problems. I therefore say kudos to Prof. Adewole for setting a good example for others to follow. He should keep up the good work he has started at Ibadan. Indeed, if Prof. Adewole continues this way, he will see that nobody will demonstrate against him throughout his tenure. Our political leaders should learn lesson from this. When we would have voted for them, they have this habit of hiding away from us until election time. Our leaders should be visible and available.
