A day after we watched students from North sponsored single handedly by FMR GOV Kwamkwanso of Kano state, as they travel for further studies to India, Dubai, China to enable them face tomorrow academically and position Northern Youths at Advantage.
Seems the North pays more attention to future of their Wards, while we play Long Tennis with ours.
As we celebrate such wisdom was when we learnt that the Vice Chancellor of CHUKWUEMEKA ODUMEGWU OJUKWU (COOU) just Jerked the School Fees to 250,000 Naira without discussion,without care, not minding the Financial awkward position of parents, not minding that the unsigned Minimum wage of 30K is added song's of sorrow.
Not counting that many Families who were Educational disadvantaged are trying to make it up by giving the Children all they can get, most of them have more than 3 in different stages, so factor in that horror based on the Minimum wage, which will serve as Avenue or revenue for House Rent, Utilities, Feeding and also the high padded school Fees, you see the Dilemma of an Average family.
The VC who we thought is SOLOMON comes to Judgement, who we rated as one with Pedigree, maybe just because he wore Born again clothing or he is of Deeper Life stock and that must have clouded our judgment, the man has increased the pains of Parents and that of Students.
First he abolished STUDENTS UNION GOVERNMENT (SUG) A pressure group that speaks for the Students which is everywhere, in every other school but buried in Anambra Schools.
Despite the disbandment, the school still collect 10,000 SUG FEE and making one to wonder,can one be charged for ANU NCHI in a stew even when it was Crayfish that is served or even used to Fry the Stew?.
The concealed Steal among the Fees include charging Students for Accommodation Fee, Utilities and such related fees, whereas the students are residing outside the Campus.
Though the nauseous state of the School Lodge makes one to throw up, also it breeds insanity than sanity and not conducive for learning, so students opted out for a better serene, yet the VC charge them for what they don't ask for nor ever wanted, which is stealing from same weak wallet of the impoverished parents.
If a VC who is a Professor, who understands the value of Education, who can attest that Christianity brought education to us free of all charges which aided our mixed knowledge, but accorded us wisdom Advantage.
If he can make Education to become Ono nso elu aka, and he still walk around as Christ Like, then I wonder if he read about the total sponsorship of Northern Boys by a man who doesn't have the same Christian Grace like we do.
This same issue makes one to wonder why Preachers who received free grace, who received God's calling FREELY, who knew that the education in question was given to our Forebears Free and aided too, but all the Mission schools today seems to be a great Mistake, they charge extraordinary, extra Bogus fees and making Children of Christians to suffer educational affliction, while the Northerners are getting it free, also aided and they are positioning to control the future of Christians which was placed at disadvantage by Pastors, Bishops and Christian Professors.
Somebody close to COOU VC, should tell him that Posterity is not just a word, but a true Judge and future Karma.
Lagos State University (LASU) tuition and everything inclusive stands 25,000 Naira.
What the VC should do and be assured that Eluigwe na Uwa ga agbala ya aka ebe is to slash down the existing School fees.
He should also visit ULI CAMPUS and see that, Anambra State University that teaches our Children Medicine doesn't have a working Health Center, what they have As Health Center is like CHEMIST Shop of 1970, where you get nothing but Phensic and APC Tablet.
I don't think they have record of treating any student even for Headache.
That School needs a serious upgrade and Dust up.. But moving on...
Store his benefits inside the future of our Children who are passing through him, sow seeds of academic excellency into our Children, that way posterity will mark his name at the book of Goal getters and the Saints shall sing his praise.
Before I dust my Pen, let me also make an Appeal to our Billionaires to emulate Kwamkwanso, not to send them abroad for studies, but cushion the Tuition and other fees that flows from the Table of Educational Tyrants.
We can be assured of our Tomorrow by the commitment we shoulder today.
Mazi Odera POg JP feeling sad that Ndigbo are losing it, left, right, center and Back.. The fear is that even the ELITES are now leading the siege without heart of repentance.
Comr. Collins Okelue has this to say:
ReplyDelete*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.
