The Minister of Education, Dr Sam Ominyi Egwu, has called on tertiary institutions in the country to initiate means of generating internal revenue to complement government’s efforts.

Dr Egwu, who spoke at the 26th convocation of Yaba College of Technology, last Friday, said the burden of funding education should not rest on government alone.

He charged academic institutions to engage in profitable ventures without compromising standards.
Hear him: “Education continues to be a priority in Government spending, however, the burden cannot rest on Government’s shoulders alone.

“Tertiary education institutions should therefore begin to look inwards to generate revenue through enterprise, and research and development to complement Government subvention.”
The Minister maintained that the present administration of President Yar’Adua remains unwavering in its resolve to catapult Nigeria to the world’s leading economies. He identified education as a veritable tool for the attainment of this lofty ambition.

To achieve this feat, Egwu urged the Governing Councils of different tertiary institutions to acquaint themselves with the role of the education sector in the realization of Vision 20:2020.
He said: “The Federal Ministry of Education, in consultation with a broad spectrum of stakeholders has put in place a Roadmap, which encapsulates a 4-Point Agenda, to facilitate the attainment of this goal. The 4-Point Agenda focuses on Access, Quality, Assurance and Vocational Education Training and Funding, resource mobilization and utilization.”

The Minister promised that the government will continue positively to workers’ genuine demand for improved working conditions in the education sector. According to him: “Recently, the Federal Government approved the implementation of CONTISS 15 in the Federal Polytechnics and Colleges of Education.”

Egwu said also that plans were underway to enact a law that would ensure the running of B.Tech degree programmes in Nigerian polytechnics. He said the removal of the disparity between the polytechnics and the universities has become necessary in order to accelerate technological development.

While admitting that technology would elude any nation that fails to lay adequate technological foundation, he expressed government’s determination to develop the sector.
“The government recognizes the fact that no nation can develop without adequate technology, and as such, places much premium on science and technology.

The significance of technology in nation building is captured in the Roadmap for Nigeria’s Education sector. To encourage and accelerate technological development in the country, the removal of the disparity between the polytechnics and the universities, has become necessary as both sub-sectors have vital roles to play in uplifting Nigeria.

It is our expectation that the present government posture will be reflected in the 2010 budget”.
He commended Yabatech as the first higher institution in the country to establish an entrepreneurship development programme as a compulsory course for all students.

“This will, no doubt, give the institution’s graduates the enablement for self reliance through wealth creation upon graduation. All our tertiary institutions are hereby enjoined to step up their entrepreneurship programmes”, he said.

Egwu explained that Yabatech was selected as one of the first beneficiaries of the Special Intervention by the Education Trust Fund, a grant of N1.5b, and praised the institution for maintaining a peaceful learning environment over the years.

He congratulated the outgoing Rector, Mr Olubunmi Owoso, for his able leadership and the giant strides the college has achieved during his tenure. “He has certainly given a good account of himself and we are proud of him”, he added.

In his valedictory address, Mr. Owoso who is handing over the mantle of leadership to a new Rector tomorrow, said that the combined convocation ceremony for the three sessions produced 14,364 graduating students at the National Diploma (ND) and Higher National Diploma (HND) levels.

“For the last 2007/2008 session, out of the 1140 Higher National Diploma graduating students, a total of 23 graduating students obtained distinction grade, 391 upper credit, 509 lower credit, and 217 pass grade. At the ND level, out of 1090 graduating students, 41 obtained distinction, 198 with upper credit, 448 passed with lower credit, and 353 others had pass grade”, he explained.

The Rector stated that over 60 programmes of the college have all been accredited, with other new courses introduced. Some of the new programmes include: HND Marketing, ND Banking and Finance, ND Mass Communication, HND Science Laboratory Technology (Environmental Biology and Toxiology option) among others.

He expressed appreciation for the support he received from the Honourable Minister of Education, the Executive secretary of the National Board for technical Education, Dr Nuru Yakubu, the British Council, World Banks, indigenous banks, among others.

The highlight of the occasion was the conferment of fellowship awards on notable personalities including, the Governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State, and the Executive Secretary of education Trust Fund, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu. The National President, Yaba College of Technology Alumni Association, Chief Emma Unachukwu and the Pro-Chancellor of Obafemi Awolowo University, Senator Olu Alabi were received the award.

Responding on behalf of the awardees, the Edo State Commissioner for Education, Dr Ngozi Osarenren, who represented the Edo State Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, assured that the awardees would be good ambassadors of the institution.
Activities marking the 26th convocation ceremony began on Wednesday, December 2, with a convocation lecture entitled: Synergy for Science and Technology Institutions- Towards an Innovative National Development.

The Guest Speaker, Professor Oye Ibidapo, President of the Nigerian Academy of Science and former Vice-Chancellor, University of Lagos, highlighted the critical role of education in development, harping on the need to inculcate science, technology and innovation as the nucleus of national re-orientation and advancement.

He said: “Education is critical to the development of a nation. It is an antidote to poverty and ‘leveler’ in the emerging knowledge society-Nigeria’s prosperity depends solely on a well-educated citizenry. A key and perhaps central element in the National Vision and Goals Strategy, be it vision 2010; Millennium Development Goals, NEEDS, Vision 2020 and the 7-Point Agenda, is the need to strengthen education as a public good.”

According to him, the challenges of development in the country epitomized by corruption, poverty, disease and poor implementation of good policies can be surmounted if the citizenry is educated.
To take the country out of the poverty circle, he maintained that tertiary institutions are expected to be at the vanguard of the national rebirth.

His words: “The world has moved from commodity-based and military power ranking to knowledge economies society. Inherent in this paradigm shift is science, technology and innovation. Science must be at the heart of development. In enthroning science as the key to re-inventing a better society, colleges of technology and universities have an essential role to play in building the capacity for high quality education and training in agriculture, engineering and health”.

The recent mass retrenchment of staff at Olabisi Onabanjo University, OOU, Ago-Iwoye, has been described as a necessary move to bring sanity to the troubled institution rather than to witch hunt the employees.
This position was made known by the Governing Council Chairman of the state University, Dr. Alex Onabanjo. According to him, a number of steps have been taken to reposition the institution, promising to use his position for the betterment of the university.

Otunba Onabanjo, who spoke through a member of the Governing council, Mr. Sina kawonise, said the institution had faced a lot of challenges before it finally resolved to down size the number of the university staff. ‘’Before this time, a lot of factors, had been considered by the council to see how changes could be made to place the university in its rightful position.

The Chairman, who expressed deep appreciation for the services rendered by all cadres of staff, also said the staff were not disengaged because of any wrong-doing but simply because the university could no longer afford to keep them.

According to him, the sack was part of the recommendations made in a White Paper submitted by the Professor Ayo Ibidapo-Obe led visitation committee when the State Governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel visited the school.

He further said the university, as at April 22, 2009, was almost bankrupt, insisting that the university could no longer meet up with its obligations to staff, contractors, and other creditors.

According to him, the institution, as at April this year, had over-bloated staff , and that staff salaries were being paid through loans from banks. The banks, it was gathered, were no longer interested in lending to the institution since the ones given were “not performing,” hence, the services of some staff were no longer needed.

“We met a total debt profile of 1.9 billion naira, much of which was incurred to augment the subvention given by the government for staff salaries.” he said.

He said the wage bill of the university had shot up from N65million in 2006 to N97million in 2007 and increased to N248million in 2009. In view of this increase, the state government, it was said, did not in anyway hesitate to jerk up its subvention to the school annually, from N60m in 2006 to N148m in 2009. He said: “Apart from this, we inherited an over-bloated workforce, far in excess of need and requirements of the National Universities Commission (NUC).

From a monthly salary bill of sixty five million naira (N65m) in 2006, the wage bill shot up to ninety seven million naira (N97m) in 2007, and finally to two hundred and forty eight million naira (N248m) in 2009.”

The council discovered that some academic departments had too many lecturers, just as the institution had overshot its non-academic staff quota by 50 per cent “To refresh your memory, the present Governing Council and the new management of OOU met a university that was almost bankrupt. The university could no longer meet its obligations to staff, contractors, and other creditors,’‘ he noted.

The council member said the state government had directed the authorities of the school to be the custodian of its Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) so as to cater for other needs of the institution.”The breakdown of academic staff in excess is as follows: Professors 7; Readers; 5; Senior Lecturer/ Senior Research Fellows ! Lecturer I/ Research l (27); Lecturer ll/ Research fellow ll (24); Asst. Lecturer 19; Graduate 3, while a total of eight hundred and sixty eight (868) non teaching staff have been asked to seek employment opportunities elsewhere,” Onabanjo explained.

“A total of eight hundred and sixty eight (868) non-teaching staff has been asked to seek employment opportunities elsewhere.

“In like manner, academic departments were reduced from 68 to 52, faculties from 13 to 8, while the existing three colleges are maintained.

Part of the options considered by the institution is to increase the tuition fee by two hundred per cent up from the existing fee to pay workers’ salaries, but it was acknowledged that many parents would not be able to pay such fee especially when the economy is tight. An overall 459 staff academic staff are retained in the system, with a projection of 61 additional academic staff to be employed in few instances of some departments short staffed, thereby bringing the number of academic staff in the Humanities to 235 and 285 in the Science. Given the NUC staff-mix ratio, a total of 733 non-teaching staff are required and retained.

“In carrying out the right-sizing, however, diligent efforts were made to give the whole process a human face. For instance, in situations where husband and wife were to lose their jobs by the stipulated criteria employed in the exercise, one of the spouses was retained on humanitarian ground. No fewer than 12 of such cases were treated. In another instance, mother and daughter were affected, and on the same humanitarian basis, the daughter was retained while the mother (who was actually close to retirement) was disengaged.”

‘’We also use this opportunity to thank Chief Gbenga Daniel, Governor of Ogun State , for his unwavering commitment to and unflinching support for the re-birth and progress of OOU. Just last week, the government, out of its very lean resources, awarded a Ninety million Naira (N99m) contract for the provision of potable water in all the campuses.

The governor has also directed the Ogun State Road maintenance Agency (OGROMA) to move to rehabilitate old ones. The value of this is about N110m. With the completion of this restructuring and rationalization exercise, this once great citadel of higher learning is back to the path of greatness charted for it by its founding fathers,’‘ says Kawonise.

Peace has returned to Lagos State University (LASU) after Governor Babatunde Fashola waded into the crisis between the various unions of the institution and the embattled Vice Chancellor, Prof. Lateef Hussein over the alleged high handedness and other related allegations which led to the closure of the institution for six months.

However, the present normalcy on LASU campus is not unconnected with the order by Governor Fashola to the striking unions to return to their duty post after constituting a panel that will look into the allegations leveled against the VC. The panel looking into the allegations was given six weeks to complete the assignment. Accoding to Dr Kabiru Akinyemi, Chairman of the instittion branch of ASUU, “No one knows the specific day the report will be released but I believe the slowdown was as a result of the December festive periods,” adding that due process must be followed in order to get the desired result.

On the panel set up to investigate the sundry allegations against the Vice Chancellor, Dr Akinyemi, said, the unions have confidence in the panel if only it would be given free hand to operate, adding that his union believes in objectivity and the constituted panel members have their conscience and names to protect. As a result, the members of the panel will not want to rubbish their good image built over the years.

He added that the voice of people is the voice of God and that at the end of the panel report, the truth and the evidences of the allegations tendered against the VC will speak for the union. “There is no way the report and recommendations of the panel will not faviour the union,” Akinyemi said.

Also speaking, a lecturer in LASU who would not want his name in print said, the reason for the constituted panel is to give the embattled VC a soft landing, adding that the governor already knows the truth of the matter and has concluded plan to replace him. He however admitted the fact that the system in the university is corrupt.

His words: Sincerely speaking, I think the embattled VC is out to sanitize the system but it won’t be easy as he is bound to step on toes. Besides, he that comes to equity must come with clean hands. Can he altogether exonerates himself from the allegations?”

LASU students nonetheless expressed their sincere gratitude to Governor Fashola over their resumption and relative peace on campus, adding that students are always at the losing end of every industrial action by lecturers.

According to Abayomi Savage, a student of LASU, whom Vanguard met reading on campus in preparation for announcement exams slatted for 5th January, 2010 said, the resumption date after the strike caught many students unawares stressing that many of the students during the strike had traveled outside Lagos and Nigeria only to hear of examination date through the media, adding that the notification of resumption and examination date was conspicuously missing in the official website of the school. Abayomi continued, to compound our problems, two weeks was announced as revision weeks which was not observed by virtually all the lecturers but bombarded us with six to eight papers a week.

Similarly, some Lasu students who would not heap blames of their failures on the door step of strike were seen having group discursion in segments which they called tutorial. When asked, Mike one of the students said: “this is the only chance we have to ask questions from one another. No one dares it during examination to shit. If you are caught in examination malpractice, you must fill a form which may lead to students’ expulsion. Besides, our lecturers do not have time to come down to students’ level in explaining difficult concepts,” he said.

Final year students of LASU did not take the long period of strike with a levity hand as they were seen battling with their projects. According to them “the long industrial action affected us because we are supposed to have rounded off our project by now and should be waiting for NYSC call up letter in order to join February batch. Besides, it is even doubtful if we can meet batch “B,” 2010.

University of Calabar

University of Calabar

In the previous articles we look at 10 major causes of admission failure into Nigeria Universities. A recent survey and statistics show that when these issues are properly addressed, admission chances increase from 20% to 80%.
I know you are thinking how can I properly address these problems? Don’t worry this chapter will address that in the most comprehensive way. The ideas shared here are based on survey, statistics, experiment and interview.

Problem 1 – Lack of Orientation
Solution – Get the Foundation Right

If there is anything I have learnt in life, it is that success does not happen by chance. If you are going to succeed in life including academically, you should get the foundation right. How do you do this? One way is to set values for your life and stick to those values. Besides, you should set internal values and follow them. Now back to the issue of lack of admission orientation how can a prospective student get proper orientation to get the foundation right and set values for himself? Orientation should start especially when one is in the final year of secondary school. At that point you should know what you are going to university to study. You should know what you want to become in life. That of course should be the foundation to build on. Then you should have another related course that can serve as an alternative or a second choice should that fail. Right from that time you should start building on that. Apart from the course you want to do, you should also decide on institution and your chances of admission.

You can get proper orientation from any of your teacher. You can also get orientation by visiting your prospective institution and inquire from their admission department. You can also visit the website of such institution and call them. If you want to contact these institutions, simply visit their website, go under contact and check their contact number. If you have subscribed to Project SMS UPDATES, we will send the contact number of somebody you can correspond with in your prospective university. You should ask about admission requirement and admission opportunity for people in your area.

Fortified with this foundation, you can set value for yourself and decide on how you can build on what you already know to increase your admission chances. Please note that you should know all these before you apply for SSCE, JAMB and Post jamb EXAMS. Remember, information is power to transformation. Many people fail due to lack of information.

Problem 2 – Parents Interference with Children Choice
Solution – Live on Purpose

Parents’ interference with their children choice of institution and course is one of the major causes of admission failure today. As a child, you have your life to live. That fact that your father is a doctor does not mean you too must be a doctor. Everyone has a purpose to fulfill in life. Your greatest challenge however is to know what that purpose is. You need to discover what is it you know how to do best. What is the profession you desire? You should sit down and think. Then write down all the things you know how to do best. Then ask your parents, friends and neighbors to tell you three things you know how to do best. Evaluate their responses and pick one or two that apply to you most. That may form the foundation for you. Without giving in to pressure from your parent or guardian, follow that which you think appeal to you. The reason is because you have the motivation and the willingness. In that case, it will be easier to build on that foundation. If you are preparing for that program it will be easy for you. Don’t be Jack of all trade. Don’t allow your parents to pressure you into what is not your purpose in life.

Problem 3 – Inadequate Preparation for JAMB
SOLUTION – Invest in Your Mind

Although the number of those passing JAMB in recent years has increased, a considerable number of applicants still fail. For one thing, if you don’t score up to 200 you will not be eligible to write post UME in many federal universities. That of course may reduce you to your second choice if it is a state university. So, you will need to brand yourself to pass JAMB. One way to do this is through personal effort. Invest in your mind by reading. For instance, there are past questions in JAMB. Buy them and use them in your personal preparation along with JAMB syllabus. This will help you to know the kind of questions that are usually set in JAMB. Besides, there are extra-moral classes or coaching center for JAMB, why not attend. This kind of self investment will save you time and help you to stay focus. Besides, the knowledge you acquire during this preparation is instrumental to your success during post UME and your first year of admission.

Problem 4 – Inadequate Preparation for Post UME
Solution – Prepare Yourself

Many would-be undergraduate apply for post UME without formal preparation. Surveys show that more than half of the applicants just apply and come in the exam day to write. The result? Failure. The truth is that things don’t work that way. Interestingly some universities made past questions available. What they expect you to do is to analyze this past question and see how you can master the kind of question they set. Apart from using past question for preparation, there are extra-moral classes around your choice university on post UME. I will advice you to attend this. Some of them have first hand information on the kind of questions that are normally set and include it in their curriculum. Even if you can not attend all the classes, you can attend special classes organized few days to the exam. Survey shows that those who do not prepare for post UME hardly make their first choice if at all they make the second choice. If there is anything you have learnt here, don’t leave anything to chance. Prepare for the exam and it shall be well with you.

Problem 5 – Missing of Application Deadline and Exam Date
Solution – Get Updates Through Project SMS Updates

Lack of information has cost many brilliant students admission. Many miss application deadline even when they have their money. Experience of victims show that these persons don’t have any means of getting information from these institutions. Some leave it to chance while others rely on friend and relatives. The truth is that these persons can hardly help you especially when they have important things to do. Many institutions provide updates in newspaper, local media and school bulletin. And if you are not especially interested you will not know of such development.

In view of the seriousness of this problem that has cost many time and money, we have role out what we call project SMS updates. For those who are seeking admission, they will use the general entrance level. You will be notified of scholarship opportunity that is available.

Problem 6 – Failure to Observe Admission Percentage Ratio
Solution – Do Your Home Work

Today students just apply to any university without considering risk. There are three factors to consider when talking about admission percentage. Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, Jamb registrar identifies these as merit, catchment and educational less developed state with percentage of 45:35:20 respectively. The latter chapter contains universities and their catchment including educational less developed state. So, let us do the mathematics together.

Case1 – If you are a brilliant student that means you can pass on merit. Already you have 45% chance of admission. Assuming the university you choose is from your catchment area you have additional 35% chance of admission. If you add that to 45% , you have 80% chance of admission. So, even if you are not from educational less developed states, you have 80% chance of admission.

Case 2 – Assuming you are not brilliant, it means you only have 55% chance left. Now if you are not from ELPS, you are left with 35% chance of admission.
Due to lack of information, some of these students who have 35% chance of admission will still choose universities that are not in their catchment area. That simply means they have no chance of admission. No wonder many of them fail. The gist is this; determine which of these factors apply to you. Your aim is to maximize the percentage thereby increasing your chance of admission.

There is still another problem. We have the 60:40 science/ARTS ratio. You know that in many secondary schools, the numbers of those in science class are less than those in Art class. Now JAMB says, even with their small population universities should take more students from science class. So, don’t be surprise if majority of science students in your class get admission. That is both Arts and commercial students combine will share the remaining 40% after science has taken 60%. So, if you find yourself in Art class, you have to read very well. This is because admission into Art courses will be very competitive especially if you are not from educational less developed sates.

Problem 7 – Examination Malpractice
Solution – Take Charge of Your Academic Future
The society has transferred to the children of our time a culture of success which stems from laziness. The generally accepted slogan “The end justifies the means” is portrayed in society from the point of view that success can be achieved through any available means whether positive or negative. Decide on how you want to prepare for each exam. Set goals for yourself and stick to it. There are three examinations you will pass through before admission will be possible into universities. We have SSCE, JAMB and Post UME. Examination malpractice is common during SSCE and JAMB. So my advise is what is worth doing is worth doing well. If you know you are going to school then invest in yourself. Read, attend classes instead of relying on examination malpractice. It is said that a man is what he knows. Also, life gives back to you what you give to it.
Conclusively these 10 major factors have been identified as the major cause of admission failure. I belief the information shared so far can be instrumental to your success. Read them, digest them. If you have any problem, call me for clarification. I want to share your testimony so please follow this information to the letter. One last thing, don’t take failure personal. Learn from your failure. Note that you can fail successfully.
