Oloyede Allays Students' Fears

Date: 2012-08-15

The Vice-Chancellor of the University of llorin. Prof. Ishaq Olanrewaju Oloyede, has allayed the tears of students of the university over the results of two computer-based courses they took during the 2011/2012 sessions examinations (GNS I12 and GNS 2I2) assuring that no student would be made to suffer for lapses not of their own making.

Oloyede gave the assurance recently when he played host to members of the executive committee of Student Union who visited him in his office.

While acknowledging the reports he received over a technical problem with the two examinations, he stated that he was made to understand that it was a "perception problem" which he believed could not be more than one percent at any point in time.

"But now they are telling me that the problem affected more than 1,000 students and i know that the problem is a major one", he noted.

The Vice-chancellor told the student leaders that the latest information he got was that the company handling the CBT programme has been able to retrieve the results of about 1,560 students from its back-up server, saying the university would hold the company responsible for the CBT hitches.

He disclosed that he had directed the Dean of Student Affairs to ensure that all students' results were uploaded before the portal opens for the hostel accommodation form.

Oloyede also informed the student leaders that other issues of concern to students were being addressed while promising to do everything to ensure the success of the new student union leaders.

He asked the student leaders to approach any of the principal officers anytime they had a pressing issue.

The Unilorin boss thanked the student union leaders for being mature in their approach to issues relating to students' welfare and advised them to continue in that path and not to see student unionism as a license to hooliganism.

Oloyede therefore asked members of the executive committee to see their election into their various offices as an initiation into leadership training, advising them that their greatest achievement would be to emerge from the university as better leaders.

The Student Union President Mr. Aremu Abdulmalik had earlier raised his concerns over the plight of the students who took the two courses (GNS 112 and GNS 212), which results are said to be having some problems, expressing their fear that the affected students might be made to carry over the courses.

He, however, sought clarification from the Vice-Chancellor over rumours making rounds on campus that a re-write of the two courses was being planned because of "missing results".

The students' leader implored the university authority to ensure that no student is disallowed from getting hostel accommodation owing to lateness in uploading their results on the portal, saying "it would be unfair to disable students from registering for the hostel due to no fault of theirs".
