AMIDST rising waves of insecurity in the country, the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has said it has prepared well to hold the forthcoming school-based West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) in all the 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory.

The examination is billed to commence on August 16 and last for about six weeks with no fewer than 1.6 million students expected to participate nationwide.
Giving the assurance in an interview with Nigerian Tribune at the weekend, the acting head of WAEC Nigeria, Mr Demianus Ojijeogu, said at the moment, the council does not foresee any reason the exam would not be held in any state.

He said though the council is well aware of the serious security challenges, particularly in some states in the northern part of the country, all hands would be on deck to ensure the examination is conducted in a safe and friendly environment across the country.
He explained that in the states where some schools have been closed down due to security issues, students of those schools have already registered in nearby schools that are in session.

He said it is only a trick to defraud lazy students of their parents’ hard-earned money. Ojijeogu said the only appeal the council would make again is for every candidate to study hard and according to the schemes of work as no question would be asked outside the syllabus.

He said whoever is caught cheating or attempting to cheat or aiding malpractice in any form would certainly face the wrath of the law.
He, however, pointed out that the exam would be conducted under strict compliance with COVID-19 guidelines and protocols.

Authorities of University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) has released the students guide and manual for General Studies (GNS 111, 211, 311) courses.

The lectures have been programmed to be online and will be on the zoom platform. Further details can be accessed below:

The Kaduna State government has suspended the resumption of schools across local governments of the state until further notice.

Addressing a stakeholders’ meeting on Monday, Governor Nasir El-Rufai explained that the government took the decision due to the ongoing aggressive military operation against bandits in most parts of the state.

He informed the meeting attended by members of the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), as well as professional and community-based associations that the operation was aimed at flushing the bandits out from their hideouts.

Governor El-Rufai added that the government was committed to protecting vulnerable children from being attacked by fleeing bandits who were already feeling the superior firepower of the military.

He revealed that the military has deployed more troops to the state for the operation and warned the residents to be vigilant and mindful of unknown faces in their midst, saying fleeing bandits might infiltrate their communities.

In his remarks, NMA Chairman in Kaduna, Dr Aliyu Sokomba, asked the Federal Government to licence the use of firearms for profiled citizens.

He stated that this was necessary to enable the people to protect themselves from being attacked by bandits since the security forces cannot be everywhere.

The University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) has been ranked among the top three universities in Nigeria, by AD Scientific Index, a leading global ranking body based in Turkey.

The ranking, which was contained in the list of 2021 “World Scientists and University Rankings’’, according to a UNILORIN bulletin issued on Monday, cited the University of Ibadan (UI), University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) and University of Ilorin (UNILORIN), as the best three universities in Nigeria based on the quality of their scientists.

AD Scientific Index stated that the University of Ibadan ranked 19th in Africa and 1,350 in the world, while the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, occupied the 25th spot on the continent and 1,522 globally.

It said that University of Ilorin ranked 41st in Africa and 1,941 in the world.

The Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) came fourth, while the University of Calabar (UNICAL) was named the fifth-best university in Nigeria on the rankings.

“The ranking reveal the competency of institutions to attract prized scientists and the ability of institutions to encourage advances and keep the scientists,’’ it said.

AD Scientific Index also stated that Harvard University made the top spot on the global list, while the University of Cape Town, South Africa, was adjudged the best institution in Africa.

“While justifying the parameters for the ranking, AD Scientific Index said that amidst many university ranking systems, we have developed a ranking system with a different method based on the principle of including only meritorious scientists,’’ it said.

Reacting to the rankings, UNILORIN’s Dean of Students Affairs, Prof. Lanre Ajibade congratulated the institution and the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Sulyman Abdulkareem for the achievement.

Ajibade noted that the ranking justified the investments made by the vice chancellor on impactful research and his insistence on quality research at all levels.
