COOU reacts..

Right of Reply from COOU...

After our publication on the shocking Increment on the School Fees of COOU, the VC and his Team empathically denied any raise for the School.

It should be believed that, the students who are wailing about the increase should go about their business without fear..
Parents should not add Kobo to the fees as it is now official that they did not increase it.

If anybody ask you for any of the increment on any of the related issues , kindly get that in writing, so that we can discuss that with the School Senate.

This is the RIGHT OF REPLY..


Comr. Collins Okelue has this to say:

 *Attention Please* .

  Our attention have been drawn to the malicious and defamatory update by one Mazi Odera Pog Jp, accusing Prof. Greg Nwakoby, the Vice Chancellor of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University of mismanagement and highhandedness.

In his statement dated Friday 27 September, 2019. Mazi Odera accused the Vice Chancellor of increasing the tuition fees of students and abolishes Students Union Government(SUG).

 *For our civility and respect for morality, we shall not trade words or make this reply seem like the usual social media battle but to set records straight.*

1. Be it known to the general public that the school fees of COOU remains the same, there is certainly no intent or move to increase the fees as alleged by the said poster. The VC is a man known generally for his concern and consciousness of the economic situation of the country and the extent parents go to meet up with their responsibilities as he is also a parent.

2. On the issue of the SUG, be it known that the SUG has served closely two (2) years and served out their terms, are they to continue until service?  The University has fixed October for the SUG election of which the relevant bodies and quarters have been informed accordingly.
Odera went further to confuse himself by saying the SUG fees is 10,000, this is very laughable. The SUG levy remains 1000 as it is clearly stated in the student fees receipt. The facts are there for confirmation from the general public.

3. Finally, you confused yourself again with unrealistic stories as regards the University's Medical Center.  I wonder if you have ever been to the University to see for yourself that we don't only have a standard Medical Center but three(3), One at Uli and two at Igbariam as new one was newly completed at Igbariam this year. The Medical Center before the advent of Prof Greg Nwakoby had been bedevilled with the issue of no ambulance, no medical personnel but today the school boast of two working ambulance vehicles at both campuses and with more than two medical doctors and corper doctors with good living conditions.

Please we therefore advise the general public to disregard such false information as it is no where near to the truth, and to let the students and staff of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University that no matter the amount of untrue allegation from haters of progress and our dear University that the school management is committed to ensuring the development of the institution to be and among the leading universities in Nigeria and beyond.

Also the Students should know that the Medical Center has been assured that as equipped and ready to serve.
I was there fee months Back and it was sordid, now that they have Vouched for it, I will visit again and parents should know that the VC said he is on top of it, while we watch actively and with focus.
Thanks
