Nigeria missing from 2007 World ranking of best 200 universities

For the umpteenth time, no Nigerian university was ranked among the best 200 universities in the 2007 world universities. But the University of Cape Town, South Africa provided a ray of hope for the African continent as it becomes the first institution ever from the continent to be ranked as the 200th best university in the world.
Now in its fourth year, the research is conducted by Quacquarelli Symonds and the rankings are compiled by Times Higher Education Supplement. The report was published late last year.

It revealed some dramatic changes compared with 2006. The THES-QS World University Rankings 2007, the report stated, reflected the internationalisation of higher education around the world, with 27 universities from 14 different countries entering the top 200 for the first time. One of them is the South African university, which shared the 200th position with the RMIT University of Australia.

According to the report, universities from the United Kingdom and the United States of America still dominated the top 10 with Harvard University, Cambridge, Oxford and Yale retaining the top four positions for the second year running.

According to the report, the University College London and Chicago also made the top 10 for the first time.

In the top 50 bracket, the report said the addition of the Netherlands sees 12 countries feature in the top 50 compared to 11 in 2006 (see table below). New entrants include Brown University, Bristol; Chinese University of Hong Kong, Osaka; Boston, Amsterdam.

The top 100 sees the number of Asian universities increase from 12 to 13 in 2006 but the number of European Universities dropped from 41 to 35 in 2006. North American universities, however, increased to 43 from 37 in 2006.

The report added that the increasing internationalisation of universities through strategic global partnerships; joint teaching and research initiatives; and increased international student recruitment activities were major factors that enhanced the rankings of the institutions.

Reacting to the report, the immediate-past Executive Secretary, National Universities Commission, Prof. Peter Okebukola, said that if Nigerian universities must catch up with their counterparts in other climes, they should do have a high proportion of top-rate researchers and teachers, many of whom have won global academic awards such as the Nobel and Pulitzer prizes; a high proportion of international staff not just local indigenous staff; well-built structures for academic, administrative, residential, leisure and sporting activities; staff and students of different nationalities. Other features they must have, he said, include uninterrupted supply of water and electricity; well-mowed lawns; friendly environment for staff; students and visitors, (including the physically challenged); no defacing of walls with posters; and clean, well-maintained toilets.

He added that laboratories, workshops and studios blistering with technology and state-of-the-art equipment; campus-wide Internet connection; delivery of lectures assisted with multimedia technology; weekly assignment for students, marked and academic progress tracked by parents and sponsors should be provided.

Okebukola also noted that calendar for the next five years approved by senate of each institution and implemented without variation should be ensured while no room should be given to cult‘s activities and examination malpractices.

Staff of Intercontinental Bank are now on the edge of their seats following a new productivity arrangement which compels them to perform or be sanctioned with pay cut or outright dismissal. Some members of staff of the bank have reportedly lost their jobs, over inability to meet deposit targets which they describe as unrealistic.

A memo from the company's group chief Executive, Erastus Akingbola dated December 24, 2007 and titled 'Amendment To Policy On Deposit Mobilisation' told the staff, particularly those of the service and marketing departments that for every month that they fail to achieve up to 60% of monthly deposit target N5,000 will be deducted from their salaries monthly.

Any service department staff who fails to achieve the said target N2,500 will be deducted from his/her salary.

If they fail to meet the target for the second month the amount debited to their account will be N10,000 for marketing staff and N5000 for service staff. For the third, the amount to be deducted from their salaries will rise to N15,000 and N7,500 respectively.

They will face suspension if they fail to meet the said target after three months.

Akingbola told his workers that any non-borrowing current account that records no activity in a month, the account officer (marketing officer) will be debited N1, 000 per account, while if the account is not tagged to an officer, the Branch head will be debited as appropriate.

Any marketing officer that allows an account being managed by him/her to go dormant will be debited N10,000monthly until the account is re-activated.

If the account is not tagged to officer, the branch head will be debited as appropriate, except in cases where it is proved beyond reasonable doubt that the customer cannot be re-marketed such as due to death, relocation etc.

For regions where more than 50% of staff are sanctioned on deposit related matters, the RBEs will each be debited N10, 000 monthly while after the third month, the RCEs will be debited N20,000

Akingbola said that the measure was necessary to stem the worrisome situation where the total deposit position of the bank month on month is running short of its planned monthly deposit target.

"The negative variance in our deposit position is attributed to the fact that staff are not marketing our various deposit liability products and thus not meeting their targets. In addition, some account officers do not exert proper relationship management skills with their customers.

"As such, most accounts under their management do not witness any activity for months and some become dormant after six (6) months.

"To engender a consistent and sustainable growth in our bank wide deposit position, the following will now apply effective January 2, 2007" Akingbola said in the memo.

Staff of the bank have criticised the position of the management as high-handed and excessive aggression to win business.

"A number of factors can bring about a dormant account or make deposits low in coming. To go by the new rule is to give the impression it is entirely dependant on the staff and is therefore unjustified" said a staff of the bank on condition of anonymity.

The bank's media relations manager John Omachonu who promised to respond to the matter after consultation with his office failed to do so by the close of work on Friday.

But the apex bank, the Central Bank of Nigeria, whose duty it is to regulate banks and enforce ethics, said through its spokesman, Festus Idoko that as private sector operators banks have the right to set targets for their staff within the limits of what they (the management of the financial institution) consider as realistic and good measure of staff productivity.

Idoko said it is not the job of the CBN to determine what an ambitious or unrealistic target is as such targets are tied to salaries. 'The banking sector has a way of handling such matters", he says.

Why are we decieving ourselves why cant someone come up with a very comprehensive posting as regards the different pay of our banks? or is it that nobody has people that work in those banks anymore? it should not be a secret at all because people get in ther svery other day so pls house to calm some nerves someone that knows should just post a comprehensive submission about this salaries.
