MMM is now a cogent reason why people wont come home with XMAS gifts for their loved ones including those who never got registered into the ponzi scheme. A friend told me this morning that he had gotten a bigger escuse to give to his siblings apart from the economic recession. He said “Mr Otuu Obinna,i thank God for MMM account debacle. I actually dont have hope of anything before 25th and so many people are looking up to me for gifts including my girl friends. So the simple escuse is that MMM froze my #580,000. Atleast they will pity me after hearing this”.......I laughed at his laziness and his almost 365 days of less savings and antiproductivity. My dear! Leave MMM alone. Be bold to tell your people that the year was tough. Besides, what is your #580,000 doing in MMM why there are lucrative and tangible businesses you can invest and even gain more. A reasonable investor invests only left over funds on ponzi schemes. It was only the greedy gullibles that were caught wholly by MMM,that is if only it will seize to exist next year. Am looking for a reason why i should buy more gifts for my people this year because i made it. I dont know about you. Do you have any plan? Or will MMM be your escuse? Wise up!

The act or an instance of making an unfavorable or severe judgment or comment of a leader or government is regarded as Political criticism. Therefore, if any comment is garnished with any form of favorability towards a leader, then such comment lacks even an iota of political criticism. Whether a critic should make his points secretive to the people and uncover it to the government of the day alone, as to reduce the influence of the aftermaths on the led is dependent on whether the government would work towards correcting the criticized policies or behavior to the betterment of the led.. The malicious influence wielded by the government of the day in Nigeria has silenced totally, the criticizing prowess of the opposition party in the country. It is not hearsay to all that panic is now the order of the day in the lives of those who have the endowments of constructive criticisms. But would any government survive without criticisms? I don’t think so. This is because; it takes a critic to tell the enthroned about the loopholes in his government. Any good-intent leader would adhere strictly to the criticisms of his oppositional antagonists. Critics only bring out the faults of the government of the day. They try to make the governed to detest the government; by so doing, they unveil the abysmal errors of the government as to accomplish their aim of creating hatred in the minds of the led. This is the haven where the major importance of having a critic stays. But can one keep a critic who is always regarded as an enemy so close? Governor Fayose who is always vocal in condemning the acts of the present government is supreme to many Nigerians because the likes of Olisah Metuh, Fani Kayode, Uche Secondus etc have been shut into the dungeons of quietness with fraudulent cases hanging on their necks. This calls for carefulness; and goes a long way to teach the upcoming critics to be wary of illegal and shady practices less they become vegetables in time to come. Yes! If there were no illegal deals concerning the likes of Metuh and his critical like-minds, the Nigerian political sphere of today would have been a critical war zone orchestrated by the talents of those aforementioned, which would have been a factor that can influence any government to do better.
Taking criticism however can be a difficult thing because nobody likes hearing that he is wrong, not to talk of when you are in power. Everybody likes praises even at the glare of mistakes. But the earlier our leaders understand that criticisms are not all bad news but most of competitive edge, the better for the country. If you always think you're right but don't get feedback from anyone else, how do you know for sure that what you're doing is any good? Whether you're a President, Governor, Chairman or Boss in the office; listening and acting on those honest views of your critics will tell you precisely what's good and what can be done better.
Recently, Ebonyi State Governor, Engr.Dave Umahi scrambled into a rare act of political innovation by appointing a Technical Adviser on Media in the person of Monday Eze who was always in a verbal battle with him, criticizing his government constructively through his write-ups on social media. While his followers still argue to conclude that Monday’s pen of criticisms and truthfulness has been inked-out by that bate of appointment, I think that it was the best thing for the government of Ebonyi State to do. “Call this guy, make him part of us and let him do the criticism covertly and tell us what wrong we have done always in secret.” If my quoted thought toes the path of Governor Umahi, then he is hypersensitive to criticisms and should be commended for that style of politicking; and I would wish other leaders bring their critics to the fore of their government, engage them and pay them heavily to uproot more facts as regards their shortcomings intrinsically. It would have not been much stressful for Governor Umahi to bundle Monday Eze into jail if he wanted to, but he opted to work with him rather than violate his right to freedom and expression.
I have also been trying to think if it would not be pertinent for any government to have Ministers or Commissioners for Criticism; men or women who are endowed with the gifts of pointing out the floors, negativism and loopholes of a government without fear. I am not talking about Special Assistants or Advisers whose works and utterances can never be on crossroads with that of their masters. I mean men who are objective and have highly developed sense of facts to expose faults for their Masters. This will go a long way to help any government and make criticism a lucrative business.

It was a show of oneness as the students who contested for different positions in the Student Union Government embraced themselves after the result was announced by the SIEC Chairman. Both the aspirants who lost and those who won were seen exchanging pleasantries; an act orchestrated by the Oath-of-Peace exercise, administered by the DSA, Rev.Dr. Osondu Chukwudi, who is known for his Laurette in Students Management. The New SUG president elect, Comr.Nwachukwu Evangelist in his speech, thanked the Rector and his Management team for giving all aspirants a level playing ground to contest. He equally thanked the students for electing him by queuing behind him openly without prejudice. His exact words"I thank the Rector who has given us a level playing ground. I never believed it when the Deputy Rector Administration, Sir Ejike Nwabuona said the Management led by Prof.Godwin Onu had no interest in the election and will never have such interest. I was afraid earlier because i had nobody, but now, i have confirmed that the Rector is a man of his words. This shows that he is a kindhearted and loving father. As for my students, i love you. I thank you and I will make you proud". He further reiterated to keep to his campaign promises which included; Immediate call for congress, declaration of the Union's financial stand three weeks after he resumes office, Open budgetary, Accountability and the completion of the Union's secretariat which has been abandoned for years by past Union leaders.
While applauding the Students for their peaceful behavior and conduct, the Digital Rector said that another electoral civilization and landmark has been created for all Nigerian Institutions. After dancing to a rendition of "Godwin", a musical piece from Korede Bello, to the bewilderment of the Students who joined in the dance and echoed allowed "We love you! We love you! We love you!", the Rector enjoined those who lost to accept their fate with integrity as it was the beginning of a new era in their experiences.

You are invited to Madam Onwosinachi Oko's 80th Birthday celebration. So if you are a Nairalander, you are invited to the Party. There will also be a Nairaland crested T-shirt for all who would come earlier.

Thursday, the 22nd day of September was one of the days to reckon with in the distinctive period of existence of Prof.Godwin Onu as a Rector of Federal Polytechnic Oko as the streets on campus were flooded with the display of affordable entrepreneurship articles produced by the entrepreneurship club of the Polytechnic.
Initially I was perplexed at the rush of Students towards the magnificent and gigantic entrepreneurship Complex built by the digital Rector. When I got closer I became more astonished at the entrepreneurship gallery for not just the jubilant students who were seen purchasing items of different magnitude but also for the qualitative products on display which was regulated under an organized Shoprite-like security architecture.
Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency (SMEDAN) had last year in conjunction with the National Universities Commission (NUC) launched the Universities Entrepreneurship Development Programme (UNEDEP) so as to encourage Nigerian students to imbibe the spirit of entrepreneurship, saying that all Nigerian universities are expected to key into the programme. The Director General, Alhaji Bature Umar Masari, had urged students in Nigerian Tertiary Institutions to endeavor to set up entrepreneurship clubs in their respective universities and polytechnics so as to imbibe the spirit of entrepreneurship while they are still in the school environment.
Moving ahead of some Tertiary institutions, Federal Polytechnic Oko has installed and launched the Entrepreneurship club under the directorship of Mr. B.C Ajakimo, a veteran in entrepreneurial skills and developments.
The occasion was colorful as so many students and staff went back home wearing joyous countenances with commodities already produced by the members of the club.
After the launching, the club displayed their products for promotion. In fact, paints, shoes, bags, clothes, belts were sold for as cheap as N500 each while detergents, perfumes, relaxers, body lotions, custards and lots more were sold between N50 to N100. No wonder the students and few informed staff rushed these items.
While interacting with the Pioneer President of the club, Charles David Olisaemeka, it was gathered that the club was launched for both the Staff and Students of the Polytechnic who would want to learn any entrepreneurship skill. The President also bragged that it will take him less than 2 months to make me a wine, detergent, perfume, relaxer and cream producing guru. That alone stirred up my interest because from Childhood I have a thick flare for provision stores.
The Rector who was represented by the Deputy Rector Admin, Mr Ejike Nwabuona charged the students of Federal Polytechnic Oko and other tertiary institutions to join the club and begin to redirect themselves on how to better their lives by embracing entrepreneurship and job creation strategies; because the problem of unemployment being faced in the country now was caused by the age long neglect of enterprise development and creation of jobs for the Nigerian Youths and this has increased the rate of social vice such as, kidnapping, insurgency, and prostitution. Admonishing the students to emulate the footsteps of big entrepreneurs like Dangote, Tony Elumelu and others who started small and improved their business to transnational status, the Rector charged all to toe the path of entrepreneurship development from school as to be self- employed after school.
Prof. Godwin Onu noted that government cannot create all the jobs needed to employ everyone, saying it is only the private sector that has the capacity. In his words, “Look at the developed countries like China, Japan, and USA; it is their private sector through the encouragement of MSME, which created major jobs that employed a larger percentage of the people. We have the plans to fashion out good packaging strategies for these wonderful products as to reach the market. We shall collaborate with big companies to industrialize these developments and in doing that, sky will be our stepping stone.”
I got back home with a N500 Shoe that I would have bought for N5000 in Onitsha main market. When I got home, I told my neighbors the good news. All and sundry in the yard (mostly staff) sped off to school to pick theirs.

The Federal Polytechnic Oko has disassociated itself from the unfinished three storey building that collapsed on Sunday.
The Public Relations Officer of the Polytechnic Mr. Obini Onuchukwu while reacting to the speculations that the building belonged to the Federal Polytechnic Oko and killed about seven people upon collapse explained that the building was owned by a private estate developer and not the Institution.
Onuchukwu said the collapsed structure was located in a boundary village, Nwagu, with the extension site of the institution adding “though the building was meant to be rented to our students when completed but we thank God for His intervention”.
According to Onuchukwu, over 22 structures completed and ongoing in the Institution are in good condition as they were designed and handled by professionals stressing that there’s no record of collapsed structure in the Polytechnic.
The Public Relations Officer could not confirm if there were casualties as at the time of filing this report because the rescue operations were still ongoing.
He further stated that the other two buildings adjacent to the collapsed building may have been affected by the impact of the collapsed one due to the proximity and as such has been shut down and the residents evacuated.
“Our rector, Prof. Godwin Onu less than one hour of the collapse visited the scene of the incident and immediately gave directives for the evacuation of all students residing within the axis of the collapsed building for fear of the unknown.
“The students are currently being resettled and we are using this opportunity to call on well to do Anambrarians to invest in structural development in the Polytechnic to complement the efforts of the Rector.
“It is also important for more professional evaluation and assessment of constructions by concerned agencies to ensure quality of jobs around the Polytechnic to avoid repeat of such,” he said.
Meanwhile the Governor of Anambra State, Chief Willie Obiano has said that the contractor and owner of the building that collapsed at Oko will be prosecuted if found to have cut corners.
Obiano who was in Oko on the spot assessment of the collapsed building, Monday noted that it was a sad event, promising to institute panel to look into the incident insisting that the State has established an agency that test the materials used in building.
He sympathized with the students whose hostels have been shut because of the incident but assured them that their safety was very important to the State government.

The Rector thanked the governor for making out time to come and see things for himself and further commended him for some of the safety measures he put in place in the State.

This is the real story:
A deathtrap ongoing building collapses opposite Federal Polytechnic Oko Permsite: It was a tragic Sunday as an ongoing building belonging to an anonymous person got collapsed with yet to be ascertained number of persons trapped underneath. So, it is not in Federal Poly Oko but opposite the school and it happened on Sunday evening not Monday as you claimed. The NEMA responded as quick as they could just this morning to make sure that the trapped workers are exhumed alive. So, no live was lost. The Digital Rector of the polytechnic responded with his Management team as earlier as usual to make sure that the collapsed building and its surroundings are cordoned off students to avoid future mishaps. The Rector blamed the collapsed building on inferior materials and berated the building contractor for putting up such gigantic 3-4Storey structure without a solid foundation. While thanking God that non of his students was affected, he directed that all students whose hostels are close to the failed building be given a tentative accommodation inside the school hostels pending when the Anambra materials testing Laboratory satisfies the fitness of occupancy of the surrounding hostels. He also engaged the Anambra State Laboratory test staff to quickly start testing other hostels susceptible to cracks within and outside the school environ. The Governor,Chief Willie Obiano who later joined the Rector in the site, thanked God that no life was lost as at the time of filling this report. He however called on all the agencies involved in such incidences to get to work and make sure that the Engineer and the building principal be brought to book if found culpable in poor material management.

Friends, let us try not to be lazy to change our Passwords monthly. If you think you will be forgetting it then use codes to memorize it. Like my password in January 2015 was P@SSw0rd1/15, meaning PasswordJanuary/2015. In February 2015 i changed it to P@SSw0rd2/15. Now, you can guess my password "P@SSword5/16". That is how to code passwords and hackers will not temper with your timeline. If you check my password above, it contains capital letters, small letters, special characters and it is uniquely short. That makes it a strong one. Dont just use "Angela1988" , "Princess" or your phone number. They recently have introduced what i term "e-Begging" to social networks. Daily, people add up people on Facebook just to beg, a total stranger of recharge cards. This morning, they hacked into one of my friend's "Ike Frank" account and used it to beg recharge cards. If i had not used my brain box well, i would have fallen. Just imagine a Doctor friend of mine, who i know cant ordinarily beg me of N200 MTN, begged me of N100 just to make calls because he is in a workshop where he cant see card sellers. My man, i almost fell for this; and if such hacker succeeds in 500 friends' accounts then he goes home with N50,000 recharge card daily. The worst is that you cant trace him because you sent it to a chat tray where he easily copies for a resale. So, let us not be lazy to code our passwords monthly. Use your current password but add few characters to it and they wont get your account hacked. If you ignore this warning, tomorrow, they might use your account to beg me of N200 recharge card, and if i fall, you will pay me back. The screenshot below is a victim's chat with me just now.

EBONYI PDP FORTHCOMING WARD CONGRESS ON SATURDAY SPARKS OFF CRISIS IN DIFFERENT LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREAS OF THE STATE:
Report reaching us says that there is tension and fresh crisis in the Ebonyi State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), ahead of the party's Ward Congress in the state on Saturday, April, 23.
According to the report, the State Youth Wing and some local government chapters of the party are having serious crisis as a result of the executives move to install a new youth leader from Ohaozara LGA (Ebonyi South) to replace the incumbent youth leader who is from (Ebonyi Central), against the wish of the state's youth wing, in addition to the inability of t.he stakeholders of the party to harmonize list of ward executives in view of the forthcoming ward congress on Saturday.
The state Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ebonyi State, Hon.Joseph Onwe is not left out as he has experienced hot challenges, blames and attacks from the aggrieved youths and some other members of the party, for endorsing some controversial and unacceptable decisions made by the state executives of the party during their State Working Committee meeting last week.

I write to remind you that tomorrow, the 22nd day of April 2016 is the 32nd matriculation ceremony of the digitized Polytechnic, Federal Polytechnic Oko. All Matriculating Students should have collected their gowns from the right units by now. If not, hurry before it is too late. Meanwhile, Congratulations to the lucky Matriculating students as they have distinguished themselves in certifying the prerequisites for Admission into Federal Polytechnic Oko, the Polytechnic of the Moment.

As the Students Union Government of Federal Polytechnic Oko prepares for its 2016 election, the Rector, Prof.Godwin Onu has cautioned the Presidential aspirants to be of good conduct. He said the S.U.G. election was scheduled to let the students have a say in the Management Circle of the Institution. In the company of the Commissioner of Police, Anambra State, the Rector met with the eight ( Presidential aspirants who were successful in the screening exercise conducted by the Security Unit of the Institution. In a fatherly manner, the digital Rector advised them to be of good conduct before, during and after the SUG election which is coming up on Saturday, 16th Of April, 2016.
He warned the aspirants never to indulge in any form of electoral malpractices as that would not only bring punishment to those found culpable but get the election canceled and would create unnecessary tension in the student’s community. Referencing the ordeals between former president Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari in the last presidential election, the Rector challenged the rest of the seven (7) aspirants who might not make it to boldly congratulate the yet-unknown person who has been chosen by God to be the 2016 SUG President of Federal Polytechnic Oko.
Toeing the same advisory line with the Rector, the Commissioner of Police who was represented by the Asst. Commissioner of Police, Asp. D.D Jimwan took time to advise the aspirants on necessary security matters regarding Students’ Unionism. He reminded them that their major reason of being in school was to acquire certificate; and that they should not allow politics to defeat that aim.
The Director of Students’ Affairs warned the aspirants to limit their campaign expenses as that would lead to accountability failure after all. While advising them not to allow external political forces as sponsors, the DSA warned the aspirants never to use money to induce the students as such could cause future regrets.
In response, the aspirants promised to abide by the rules stipulated by the Students Independent Electoral Commission.

This is what we call "Achievement". God will bless you sir.

The Digital Rector of Federal Polytechnic Oko, Prof. Godwin Onu has restated his commitment to the wellbeing of staff and students of the Polytechnic. He stated this while addressing Teaching and Non-Teaching Staff of the Polytechnic at the newly renovated Convocation Arena of the Polytechnic. In his address, the Rector welcomed everybody without forgetting to commit the souls of the departed staff into Gods hands. In his well-articulated baritone voice, he said the purpose of the address was to inform but dispel issues bothering the minds of the staff, which could lead to rumor or misinformation. He said it was appropriate for the staff to gather once in a while to tackle pertinent unsettled issues. He applauded the peaceful atmosphere which has been enjoyed in the institution since the beginning of the year 2016. He also reiterated his promise to leave a historic landmark before vacating office.
On students’ welfare, he said the staff were employed mainly because of the students and as such, the interest of the students should come first before any other thing. He loudly harped that all Teaching and Non-Teaching staff must take the students as their own sons and daughters.
In his usual friendly and polite utterances, he said “If a student comes to your office without greeting, do not act on him or her as a tiger, but caution such student as your own child and he or she will learn”.
On students’ exploitation, he said nobody should exploit or harass the students directly or indirectly and warned that any staff caught in such act of exploitation or harassment would be treated accordingly.
On sales of textbooks, the Rector said that all textbooks must be of high quality and must be sold at a well regulated price. He also said that Teaching Staff should learn not to extort money from students during final year Project Period. In anguish, he sighted a case of a Lecturer who demanded N20, 000 from a student before his project was read; and said such issues would not be taken lightly if evidential.
In his target to update the delayed way of online result processing, the Rector promised that the results of students would be published the same day the examinations were written.
In conclusion, he said the First Semester examination would start on 25th of April, so that the school will match in synchrony with its contemporaries who in disobedience, did not embark on the strike action that slowed its academic calendar.

The founding partner of Mossack Fonseca, the Panamanian law firm hit by a huge leak of offshore financial data, told a German newspaper his company had not yet been approached by anyone as part of investigations.
Ramon Fonseca also said the release of more than 11.5 million company emails was the result of hacking from a computer overseas rather than an inside job and that he knew which country the hacker attack had come from but was not allowed to disclose it. He had told Reuters on Tuesday the firm was a victim of a hack from outside.
"We're the ones who have filed a complaint with the authorities," Fonseca told Bild newspaper's Saturday edition.
"Every time there's something in the newspapers, the authorities announce they'll launch investigations. We're fully cooperating but we haven't been contacted by anyone yet."
Panama said on Wednesday that an independent commission would review the country's financial practices following the leak of information that has embarrassed a clutch of world leaders and forced Iceland's prime minister to resign.
Fonseca, who was a senior government official in Panama until March, said "thousands of lawyers around the world" were doing the same "completely legal" work as Mossack Fonseca, which specializes in setting up offshore companies.
Most of the offshore firms are in jurisdictions other than Panama, including Britain, the United States and the British Virgin Islands, Fonseca said.
"So why us? We see it like the biblical story of David and Goliath. Everyone has the right to privacy. Perhaps God chose us to fight for this fundamental human right or perhaps I'm mistaken," he added.

Good works cant be hidden. Kudos to him.

Hmmmmmm...It is not only that one you posted @gretestben. The my back was also captured in the last training. I was a partaker. So that is why i was surprise to see a well meaning staff posting hate speech against the school. That poster is actually not our staff i swear to God. I am the person in orange and blue polo at the back. I was answering call while the lecture was on and Mr.Barrister asked me to leave the hall. That was the end of my Training, but yet i eulogized the Institution. My pay is same with others in my cadre. Even the Federal Government will laugh at this nonsense. The road network and medical equipment put in place has been ringing bells, so the poster is a failure.

I know Nairaland would still shift this to FP because they have done the damage and it is left for them to repair the damage done by spreading false information here. Though i love one of the rules that says that whatever you post here is on your head. So, when OKO Managements sues them, they will just reveal the identity, email address and phone number of the poster (OkoStaffSchool).

@ETwo....Please tell him. I dont think he knows what he is posting. Maybe his brother teaching in the staff school called him and begged him for money. Then forged papers of fake payment as to claim he has not been paid for 12years and you are foolishly still working there. You were deceived for 12years and you never bothered to ask your mates in other Federal institution how much they are being paid. Rubbish. You did not frame this your story very well abeg. 12 years ago, do you know the Rector that was there? I dont even know cos i just started teaching there in 2010 and i think that was when Prof.Onu came in as Rector. So you claimed this has been on for 12 years. hahaha...laughable! The Hausa Rector, Mr.Audi can not even do such for 7 years before he handed over. So, you did not fake your details well. I looked at the list you posted and didnt see my name. All of these wont even pay you good in future. Plz tell ur pay master that you failed cos Nigerians are not dullards.

I saw this few minutes ago in the twitter handle of Federal Polytechnic Oko @FederaPolyOko.

"Our attention has been drawn to a resent post in Nairaland with the link “https://www.nairaland.com/2962322/federalpoly-oko-diverting-staff-salary/2#43359324 …"
This was wrongly used by the enemies of good tidings to attract audience against Federal Polytechnic Oko as the Institution is set to compete Federal Universities in academic and structural achievements. On that note, we call on the detractor who could not research for a more refined journalistic Subject to retract his calumnious post.
Federal Polytechnic Oko remains a sacred and hallowed Institution and cannot toe the path of criminality. Our staff are not being owed and they receive the best in-service training when compared to their colleagues in other Institutions.
If the Management and the staff of the Polytechnic Secondary school (staff school) are having issues as the poster claimed, that should not warrant such broadcast because the Rector, Prof.Godwin Onu is always confronting their misunderstandings and challenges with expertise and meanness. However, Prof.Godwin Onu, has set a panel to look into the issues in the Polytechnic staff school as urgent as possible. So, very soon, the panel will submit its report and those found wanting, if any, will be prosecuted accordingly.
Since this has been happening for over 12 years, according to the Poster, and Prof.Godwin Onu is just in the middle of his second term, this Panel will trace beyond boundaries as to uncover all the wrongs, and the perpetrators must be brought to book if any evidence is handy."

While the Rector, Prof.Godwin Onu has been working assiduously to make the institution stand as the best among equals, some miscreants through the back door of impunity still created loopholes to syphon the school at the detriment of the Management and entire staff. The Principal of that school has to be arrested pronto and questioned seriously. Nonsense!

Federal Polytechnic Oko, Anambra State has signed an MOU agreement with Chattered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria (CIBN) on the award of Associate Diploma and Associate of Chattered Institute of Bankers for OND and HND graduates of the Department of Banking and Finance of the Polytechnic respectively. An accreditation team of the Chattered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria had visited the above mentioned Department of the Polytechnic to estimate the academic prowess and preparedness of the department for the CIBN linkage programme. The outcome of the visit was laudable and successful.
The noble pack of executing the Linkage Agreement with CIBN and the Federal Polytechnic Oko, which took place in the hallowed council chambers of CIBN was piloted by the President/ Chairman of Council, CIBN, Mrs. Otunba Debola Osibogun(FCIB) and the execution of the agreement was coordinated by the Registrar/Chief Executive of CIBN, Mr. Seye Awojobi (FCIB).
The climax of the ceremony was a parting gift to Prof. Godwin Onu, the Rector of the Digital Polytechnic of the moment.
After the signing of the Agreement, there was a Ceremony of Exchange of the two copies of the Agreement between the Rector, represented by Dr.J.B.C. Onyeagba and the President of CIBN.
With this agreement and execution of the MOU signing, Federal Polytechnic Oko now joins the league of Institutions that has this Linkage Programme.
Do you know what this means? This means that:
1. The Banking and Finance students of Federal Polytechnic Oko will register and take CIBN AIB Examination while in school. Then, on graduation, they will have both the Associate Diploma/Ordinary National Diploma certificate for ND graduates and Associate of the Chattered Institute of Bankers/Higher National Diploma certificate for HND graduates.
2. They will enjoy exemption from some of the CIBN AIB Examinations as some of the approved courses domiciled in the department have already been taken by the students during their ND and HND programmes respectively.
3. They also stand to have an edge over their colleagues in the labour market because of the additional professional qualification awarded them. Source:http://campusnewss..com.ng/2016/02/banking-and-finance-students-of-oko.html

Caseless:
We know where those who support corruption in Nigeria mostly come from.

knowing where the supporters come from is Caseless like your name. The truth remains that some services are not priced. In Lagos, pure water has a constant price of N10, so one does not have to price it. But in I.T, there is no price. It is not about supporting corruption but having a price for a brand. To computerize a Ministry can cost 100million or 2million depending on the company contracted. Likewise construction of road, it has no price. So the guy returned the money because he did not work for it. If he had worked for Jonathan or PDP, he would have taken the money.

QUESTION FROM AZUKA ONWUKA(Writer with Punch Newspaper):
How would you react to this? During the 2015 election, you or your company was contracted to carry out some publicity/public relations work for a political party/politician. You were paid N25 million. You did the job. But now you get to see that the man who paid you has been arrested and accused of diverting money meant for military equipment. Would you return the money? (I asked because a man just returned the N25 million he was paid to carrying out political publicity in December 2014).

ANSWER FROM OTUU OBINNA (System Analyst):
He simply did not do any job. If i were PDP, i would fashion out a legal remedy against the so called fund returnee for not doing what he was paid for. Does he want to tell Nigerians that he returned it as a good compatriot or what? Rubbish from the pit of hell! Apart from National coffers which all have been made to believe was emptied by Goodluck and co with all calumnious tact and gullibility, PDP got donations from Party faithfuls across the globe to fund its campaign. So all these noises of millions paid for Jobs being returned tell us that Goodluck Jonathan and PDP were duped in the last election by those they contracted to carry out some online and offline Campaign duties.If he had spent his time and resources online, he would not have returned a Kobo So, if i were a partaker of "even if it is N50million" for an online campaign in the last election or if I happen to get involved in such Jobs in future, EFCC will ask me to vomit it while i did or would do my Job perfectly? Laughable! As an I.T Professional, System Analysis has no price. I can charge N100million to design a website of N200, 000 if my clients agree to pay (Just like the case of Fashola). So, one cannot drag me around after charging such an amount. But, it is left for the Ministry or Organization to query my client who foolishly paid such huge amount for a simpler Job and not coming to me. I.T is a business domain and one firm can choose to charge 1billion on a N1000 Job. It is left for I.T clienteles to accept or look for other I.T agencies that can do same Job cheaply.And if you bring such Job to me, my question would be "Can you afford to pay for my I.T Services?" Not "Where did you or would you get the Money to pay me?" Nobody asks the latter question in a business domain, so the source of the money you pay for my services is not my headache at all. So, the man returned the money just for the sake of empty noises and political attractions. Does he think Buhari will clap for him or what? I call it “Insanity in the highest frequency of 1600Gigahertz.”
