Misplaced priority at its peak. I join Jesus to weep for Ekiti people.

bilulu:

My question to u is thus: those presidents and heads of state that attend PMB/PYO's inauguration aren't they working also? And moreso this he just did is called "Working Visit" not vacation.

This is the height of wickedness to a fellow woman. I suggest the culprit be sentenced to death by frying

Nigeria finally has a working Vice President... Ride on Prof. Still waiting for ur Dubai vacation pictures from ur vacation managers

bashydemy:

Oga Dokpesi, so the office of the NSA was a department of PDP Presidential campaign organisation abi? Please give us gud reason why u should not be in kirikiri jare

All hail the king

This robbery has some level of technical input. The personnel in charge of the ATM and the security guys should be questioned.

Do u mean first bank or power bank? Do the needful i.e pictures of the act to back ur claim or...... U know the rest

I thought Senator Akpabio should have immunity as a distinguished Senator of FRN

Nice story with a beautiful ending.

@op dis ur post was actually made by Alibaba (comedian) and not Dbanj. Gud one though

Congratulations to the appointed, Eeyah to the sacked.

Its a pity that GEJ allowed himself to be dragged into international disrepute as a result of mediocre men he surround himself with.

I am fiding this hard to believe though, but is the Nigerian Millitary still sacred, independent and unpoliticised?

Hmmmnnn Desperados

Latest news: Have u heard dat The Education Rights Campaign, ERC, has called on
the management of the Michael Otedola College of
Primary Education (MOCPED), Noforija, Epe, Lagos
State, to release the results and certificates of the
degree students of the college, even as it demands
that the Professor Olu Akeusola-led MOCPED
administration be probed for mismanagement of
funds.
This is coming as degree students of the institution,
on Monday, embarked on a peaceful protest to
demand for the immediate release of their results
and certificates by the school administration.
MOCPED is an affiliate college of Ekiti State
University and students can seek admission into
MOCPED for degree programs that would bear
EKSU's certificate. Though there is a cost and
responsibility sharing arrangement between both
institutions, MOCPED must regularly compile
students' results and present same to EKSU Senate
for approval.
According to ERC's national Coordinator, Mr. Hassan
Soweto, "unfortunately, since the degree
programme started about eight years ago, MOCPED
has not issued statements of results and
certificates to any of the students who has
completed this program and neither has any
proceeded for the National Youth Service.
"This is because the authority of MOCPED is
heavily indebted to EKSU and as a result, is unable
to present students' results to EKSU Senate for
approval. This is in spite of the huge amount
realised from the high tuition the degree students
pay. We must put it on record that a similar degree
program of EKSU is affiliated with Adeniran
Ogunsanya College of Education (AOCOED) and
there are no complaints about non-release of
results or certificates." Continuing, Soweto said:
"This allegation of indebtedness raises pointed
questions including whether or not student fees are
not being mismanaged or embezzled by the Prof.
Olu Akeusola-led administration of MOCPED. The
best way to allay this fear is for the College
administration to be probed and the ERC calls for an
independent probe panel to be constituted and
should include elected representatives of students
union and staff unions of the college in order to
ascertain how the college managed to default on
payment to EKSU despite the huge amount degree
students pay as tuition."
The ERC called on the management of MOCPED to
immediately release the final statements of results
and certificates of all those who have completed
EKSU's degree program affiliated with the college
as the situation has got to a stage where further
refusal to release the results and certificates could
warrant mass protests and demonstrations by the
concerned students who have been patient for so
long. The ERC also condemned the Lagos State
Government, the owner of MOCPED, for failing to
intervene in the crisis.

We need the general public to ask prof Akeusola and MOCPED if truly they are owing EKSU and when certificates will be issued.

What Adeniyi Owoduni was told when coming
to Michael Otedola College of Primary Education
(MOCPED), Noforija, Epe Lagos State for a
degree programme was that the students of the
institution enjoyed similar privilege with that of
the Ekiti State University (EKSU), Ado-Ekiti.
The college in additional to its regular
programmes is also running some degree
programmes in conjunction with EKSU leading
to the award of degree certificates bearing the
names of the two institutions.
With this in mind, Owodunni believed that he
would collect his certificate immediately after
graduation just as it is applicable to EKSU
graduates.
But three years down the line, the 49-year-old
graduate of political science had left the college
without knowing when to be issued his
statement of results let alone the certificate.
“I spent six years to study political science
instead of four years that the students in EKSU
are spending for the same course, yet I cannot
get my certificate,” he lamented.
National Mirror gathered that Owodunni is not
alone in the situation. Thousands of others who
graduated from the college from 2010 to date
are equally affected. Omola Thompson, Rofiat
Ahmadu and Adeyinka Borokini who studied
Political Science, Economics and Mathematics
respectively are some of them.
They told National Mirror that their inability to
be in possession of their certificates some
years after graduation is already debarring
them from seeking gainful employment. “And
we have appealed on several occasions to the
school authority to give us our certificates
without success,” Omola said.
“That is why we have concluded that the
leadership is not concerned about our plight.”
But the Provost of the college, Prof. Olu
Akeusola debunked the students’ claim that all
the 2010 set have not collected their
certificates, saying some have already
collected theirs while others are being
processed. “So, it is a lie that we abandon
them as it won’t be our pride to do so,” he said.
Akeusola who said he inherited the problem in
2011 when he came on board as the provost
blamed the development on poor coordination
of the programme by the past administration.
He said the former administration was unable
to take the results of the students down to the
affiliate institution due to the failure of students
to pay their school fees on time and some other
discrepancies.
“It was when I assumed office that I made the
students realised the need for them to pay the
fees which they did in 2011,” he stressed.
Akeusola, a Professor of Comparative Grammar
also explained that the internal crisis that
engulfed the college in the last two years
including student incessant protests was
another serious factor that is slowing down the
process that will lead to the issuance of the
certificates.
Nevertheless, he said that a committee is
already working to facilitate the process while
appealing to the affected former students to
remain calm.
In their own reactions, the management of Ekiti
State University (EKSU) said MOCPED had not
been able to present the results to them for
approval due to non remittance of funds.
Speaking with National Mirror, the Deputy
Director, Affiliate Colleges in EKSU, Dr. Florence
Osalusi explained that the Vice-Chancellor,
Prof. Patrick Aina, had visited the institution, on
debt recovery and the need for the authority to
present the results for senate approval but had
yielded no positive results.
“And they won’t get the certificate until the
college fulfill its own part of the bargain by
remitting the fees to us,” she concluded.

I know dat dbanj can never be as broke as those reporting and celebrating the news.

The drama started when the students of Ekiti State University in affiliation with Michael Otedola College of Primary education staged a peaceful protest to agitate against the unfair treatment of d management of the institution. A press release by the mother institution (Ekiti State University) on the 23rd of January 2015 prompted this protest. In the publication, MOCPED was accused of huge indebtedness and non remittance of students result to the school (eksu) senate for approval. This press release and the unfair treatment of students on this campus prompted students to demand for explanation from the school management . Some of the things agitated for by the students include: 1. Untimely release of examination result 2. Embezzlement of our school fees 3. Non remittance of Eksu's fund 4. Non processing of students certificate 5. Unstable academic calendar 6. Poor managerial setting 7. Poor administration of the degree program ......... The peaceful protest was later turned sour on the arrival of the army. On their (soldiers) arrival, they started shooting to the air & at the same time harassing the students with their ammunition without hearing the students view. Students where tortured like criminals without committing any crime. At a point, the soldiers started looting nearby hostels and any student found inside the hostel was seriously dealt with. Many students were injured by this soldiers without any justifiable reason. I am yet to fathom the reason why those who are supposed to protect our fundamental human right are the ones infringing on our right. How long will this continue? When will all this maltreatment stop? This act is totally repugnant to natural justice and we want the government to intervene in this issue. We can't continue this way. Please government come to our aid. Our destiny is at stake. Please the students needs to be helped in order to avoid expoitation of the future leaders of this country.

U ppl shoulnt misunderstand this is issue, eksu epe has nothing to do with Ekitit state govt, the programme is a business venture btw eksu and mocped. In which mocped has continually refuse to respect their part of the franchise. The mgt of mocped are doing absolute nothing to help the plight of the students couple with acts of insurbodination and embezzlement that takes place in the sch bursary the dept, degrading infrastructures and unconducive learning environment and facilities. The students av done all within their reach to get this sorted ASAP but all to no avail. I can't forget the famous promise of prof Akeusola the provost: I swear on my HONOUR u will get ur certificate and results 6 months after gradution. Its already 3 years I wrote my final papers am still waiting on his HONOURS for those promise to be fulfilled.
