Kill him ASAP
Endtime Lecturer
Re: Hm by thompson1510(m): 2:55pm On Nov 28, 2015
Cant you guys get some thugs to beat him up? He'd just be in an hospital bed for a year while y'all get your ass*s outta that school. #END TIME LECTURER
Re: Hm by ProfBrainbox: 2:56pm On Nov 28, 2015
Most of the students complaining here are those who never intended to study mathematics, they wanted to school in UNILAG at all cost and were offered Maths as a bailout...Maths is not political science...u have to be a genius sometimes to be a maths graduate. I did Business Admin in UNILAG over 10 years ago and had an encounter with Osifodunrin (not a Dr. then)...behold, I passed his course at once!

Eat ur heart out Chigbo, I made it.

Re: Hm by Favparis(f): 4:21pm On Nov 28, 2015
I suggest you guys channel your grievances to the school Senate.

Do a letter to the senate committee and through the HOD.


One Lecturer I hate in UniJos is [Mr Songden] of Physics Department.

He will drastically reduce your grade to the whatever he wishes.


I have vowed to frustrate any file that comes my way/through my Office with the name, [SONGDEN].

HIS CHILDREN MUST PAY FOR ALL HIS WICKEDNESS.......

This lecturer Dr.osifodunrin solomon,M.A.T 304 has been the talk of students in mathematics department, unilag. He has held more than 100 students from graduating. Simply because his rules and principles student are finding it hard to cope wit. Speaking with an extra year student he said, if u go the man and tell him u are an extra year student, he will send you out. The man is merciless and wicked he said infact he is heartless. Speaking with another student name withheld said. This man will mark you down if you dont write ur name very well, he never encourages student he is only bent on on his will that it all ends wit him. He started his classes first and was the last to end, and student still failed it shows something is wrong, we dont like him, we will never will. I mean what is the need, he is not student friendly, even his fellow lecturers cant even talk to him. Dr. Osifodunrin we beg you allow this final year students and extrayear student Go. Pls nairalanders lets help reach out to this man and tell him he sould stop his wickedness. On his email ; asaosifodunrin@yahoo.com
The LECTURER is really helping to manage the economy.

He doesn't want them to graduate into JOBLESSNESS grin grin.

Buhari should accord him national recognition

You might be right and wrong at the same time.
Why? People that are given Mathematics Education after a fall out from reaching their respective cutoff marks are ones that chose Engineering and Mathematics related science courses.
So, even if they were admitted in their chosen course, they'll still meet tons of Mathematics questions.
And statistics have shown that people graduating as the best students in less-competitive courses are the ones that never chose it. Go figure!

@Op first of all hope none of your names is sabestian because u may be found eventually if this case is brought to the notice of the management.

I graduated from that same department like 5 years ago and we heard a lot of unpalatable stories about this same man, we learnt then that he travelled abroad for his doctorate. Infact we really thanked our stars we didn't encounter him during our 4 years program. He co-authored some books on algebra with professor Ajala, such as elementary linear algebra, introduction to ring theory etc.

We really enjoyed Prof Ajala so much taking this same course he is taking, Baba is mature and welcoming God bless my Prof of life. He shaped my orientation about dressing in native attire with my fila(cap), oh that man is ever neat and sociable infact he inspired me to buying Mercedes Benz as my first car.

Av not been be to my alma mater close to 4years now after convocation, God bless my lecturers.

Back to the topic, bring the attention of the HOD to this, he will be talked to by the likes of Prof Okafor, Prof Ajala, Prof Okunuga and Prof Olaleru(although he too is a bit sadistic but he his of age now I guess). This is ICT age and nobody should be allowed to drag a successful system backward. Afterwards the likes of Dr Akewe had taken that same course before his arrival if I'm correct, so wats his stress!!! Abeg he should be tamed joor! The Unilag he left like 10years ago is not the same, he should be adviced properly or else social media will just cheaply scandalized him.

My regards to Dr Gbademu, Dr Fenuga, Dr Osilagun, Dr Bridget,Dr Akarawak etc also to Prof Kenku if he is still in the system.

God bless Unilag!!!

Exactly my thought! He is not imparting the knowledge well to the students if more than 50% fails!
something is wrong somewhere, either his methodology is wrong or his ego speaks higher than his knowledge!
Whichever way, the school authority should look deeply into the case because at the end, it is the students that suffers!
My oga, with your grammar, they shouldn't have let you go too grin.

How many of your school lecturers visits nairaland.com? Go fight for yourselves since you all are the most affected because when you enjoy you enjoy alone

MTH304 is your cross bear it or face it. To be honest I ain't sympathising with you you know why? Noone is willing to spend an extra year for a fellow student

The school authority should do something... The students can't all be dullards. What's the importance of being a lecturer when every student are failing your course? It shows clearly that the lecture is not imparting on the students ;hence his salary can't be justified.

I say sack the lecturer before he completely destroy students under him.
A school where some lecturers are more powerful than the Senate, VC and DVC?? Too many sadists.....

What a Comparison!!! Electives as against Compulsory courses?? Please do a survey again in the school, take the pulse of students most especially in the faculty of Sciences, maybe your line of thought would change.

I know the op very well, we were in the same hostel till year 4..

And the lecturer in question, I know him very well..
To me he's a good man.. My opinion though

But we don't relate on academics level because I'm not in his department.... I feel the op should go-to one of the prominent people in MATHEMATICS department..
I'm pretty sure Education (HOD) won't do anything to help.

I know a lecturer the op can appeal to and he will help them get through

But I feel nairaland won't help you

Students of these days are similar to egg heads, their heads are empty, they refuse to read anything or make an effort on their own, you expect to be spoon fed, if you check that entire result there will be people who scored very well and if you interviewed such students you would quickly understand why they stand out amongst the rest of the fools in that class, it's not a lecturers duty to ensure you pass or graduate, it's the students duty hardwork and dedication. Mtcheeeeew
I agree with you but i wouldnt not call them fools in a haste except they were here to speak for themsleves. Students today rely so much on what has been said in class, most dont even do any reading on their own whatsoever to understand the concepts, i need somebody from that department to tell me bo one got a "B".

In the professional cadre, precision saves time and money and uf he marks you down for errors you should thank him because some real life situations do not offer you a second chance.

Look on to the positive side of things, I was of your opinion several years back till i sat and objectively evaluated the scenario l. From the POV of these lecturers it is more fufilling for a student to understand his course and pass it effectively, this in turn means he hasnt wasted one semester trying to learn you all.

How many times have you been able to consult same lecturer with a reasonable math problem and he turned you down? Then you can make a case.

Our generation needs to sit up. We dont need to pass exams alone, we actually need to rake control off the hands of expatriates and amend the views of employers which hold true that most Nigerian graduates are unemployable.

No my dear, on the contrary, I am an educationist to the core and I know what I am saying.
---
Letting students go (40%) is different from doing your job well!
---
When I was in school, I had a lecturer who is suppose to teach us account, it was a borrowed course. Through out that semester, he only showed up once, arrogantly teaching account as if he was writing a note. At the end, he sent our CR to us not to worry, that he is in charge that we will all pass. Only a test and we were all like what is this because, it was strange to us but at the end, so many people failed the exam. so many things like that!
---
Now will you say that that lecturer has imparted knowledge?
---
In education, if more than half of the class is not getting what you are teaching, you change your method!
---
The aim of education is to impact knowledge. So the lecturer must ensure that that aim is not defeated!
---
In a situation where over 50% fails your course, it simply means that lecturer is a failure!

My dear you should see the joy a lecturer has within him that students passed his course. My mother a retired secondary school principal, always had a bad day when we plotted statistics on the computer to etermine the gaussian distribution of the exams she just marked (her subject), especially when the modal scores where below par mumcy shed tears.

What am I saying? Lecturers give you the concept but teachers teach you all you need, a lecturer expects you to do additional research on his course work to buttress his concepts. Life is dynamic and so are the challenges of the real world, we often come to troubled ends if we solely rely only on what is said in class. Doing the extra work sets you apart.

As much as I agree with your point, there are lecturers that love students failing, they derive joy in students failing their exams and tests.
After putting in the extra work and someone says you wouldn't get a distinction because the "A" grade belongs to him??

Oga I know what I am saying. I have worked with students for a long time, i was also a student and it's only today that I realise my folly back then. The Nigerian educational system is now such that students went through special centres to enter universities, during our days there was nothing of the sort, therefore if u find yourself in engineering, medicine or accountancy you will know you are meritious of it. Not today that un merits are studying courses they don't deserve, a lecturer duty is to guide you hitherto to lecture you. It's your duty as a student to educate yourself by self learning, peer collaboration and education tools, most of u so called students are not students rather they are simpletons who believe it's the lecturer's duty to make u pass and the moment you fail it must be his fault. I repeat again. Nigerian students are simpletons and fools, a majority of them educated illiterates, go to that same class that had all those fools and you will see the humans amongst them who scored something meaningful, was it not the same lecturer, was it not the same questions that were set? Please I have been around students for a long time to know what deebs they are. Nigerian students
