SOME 2008/2009 POSTGRADUATE STUDENTS YET TO GRADUATE

The 2008/2009 set of the Postgraduate Graduate School,the University of Ibadan are yet to graduate due to some irregularities in their academic calendar.

This was made known by one of the affected students of the postgraduate school, Joseph Obong on Tuesday, the 30th of August, 2011.

According to him,:  “Inspite of the fact that the University of Ibadan is widely regarded as; ‘The first and the best’ only among Nigerian Universities, it has not risen to the challenges of being the best University around.”

He stated further that it is clearly spelt out in the admission letter given to students that a masters degree programme is supposed to run for a period of eighteen (18) months, but unfortunately for a large number of the postgraduate students running their masters programmes in the school, they have spent three (3) years in the school without any hope of finally completing their programme.

In the same vein, Yemi Ojo, a former student of the PG school who studied Visual and Creative Arts claimed that he finished his programme in the year 2009, and up till the moment of interview, he has not got his cerificate.

He therefore opined that the University of Ibadan should look for proper solutions to these problems or suffer a loss of prestige.
