The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has extended the service year of 24 Batch B Stream 1 corps members serving in Lagos State for alleged indiscipline.

The state’s NYSC Coordinator, Eddy Megwa, who disclosed this in a statement titled: “Corps Disciplinary Committee Decision,” said 18 other corps members had also been listed for “pending disciplinary issues.”

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), has urged corps members who at present are not in their States of service, not to violate the ban on inter-state journeys in a bid to collect thair Certificate of National Service (CNS).

NYSC said as soon as the ban is lifted and it is safe to travel, corps members are expected to go to their respective States of service to collect their CNS.

The Scheme also announced that passing-out for the 2019 Batch “B” Stream 1 Corps Members have been slated nationwide for Thursday, 28th May 2020.

NYSC Director of Press and Public Relations, Adenike Adeyemi (Mrs), yesterday in Abuja, said the event shall be devoid of the ceremonial parade as a result of the threat and danger posed by Coronavirus.

She said “In keeping with COVID-19 protocol of social/physical distancing, Certificate of National Service (CNS) shall be issued to qualified Corps Members at the Local Government level.

“Accordingly, a full complement of NYSC Officers have been mobilised for the distribution; and shall do so from ten service points in each of the Local Government Councils.

“As a precautionary measure, the distribution shall be staggered for a period of ten days in the first instance, in order to remove anxiety from the concerned Corps Members, in addition to making the activity seamless and less cumbersome.

According to her “Management heartily congratulates the 2019 Batch “B” Stream 1 Corps Members for the successful completion of the service, which undeniably is a major milestone.

“Dear Corps Members, as you go for your CNS from Thursday, 28th May, remember to ensure the strictest observance of discipline; anchored on orderliness, adherence to instructions, added to the rules of social/physical distancing, use of facemask, hand sanitiser and proper washing of the hands with liquid soap for at least twenty seconds during the activity.

“Kindly note that unclaimed certificates shall be returned to the NYSC National Directorate Headquarters, Abuja two weeks after the lifting of inter-state travel ban.

“Please, always stay in touch with our social media platforms, as well as the mainstream media for further information.

STRONG indications emerged, yesterday, that officials of the Federal and Lagos State governments are working out guidelines for re-opening of schools, which closure was precipitated by the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.

This came as the Lagos State Government hinted that there are plans to employ no fewer than 2,000 more teachers in its public primary schools.

Similarly, the state government, through the Office of Education Quality Assurance, has designed an initiative, tagged: ‘Read-Aloud, Lagos’, to create and stimulate the interest of school children in reading books.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Education, Folashade Adefisayo disclosed this during an online show, Covinspiration show, moderated by a United Nations Youth Ambassador, Dayo Isreal, while giving scorecard of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu led administration within the 360 days.

On the possible re-opening of schools, Adefisayo said: “Like other sectors already approved by the Federal Government to reopen, the state government is meeting with officials of the Federal Ministry of Education to design guidelines that must be adopted before the schools will be re-opened

“We are watching the behaviour of the pandemic to see what happens next and we are working with the Federal government on the re-opening of the schools in the country as soon as possible.

“This is not a decision that any state can unilaterally take on its own. If we are certain that the children are safe, we will reopen the schools for learning to resume.

“We are already working with the Federal Ministry of Education and they are working with National Center for Disease Control, NCDC, on the guidelines that could be adopted when the need arises for the schools to reopen.

“After the protocol is completed and health officials assured us that the coast is clear, we will give the schools some days to adjust their premises in accordance with the guidelines on commencement of academic activities.”

On the recruitment plan of teachers, Adefisayo said: “We have concluded the recruitment of 1,000 secondary school teachers. And we are currently working on the recruitment of 2,000 teachers for public primary schools.

“We are looking at employing teachers every quarter because the rate of retirement of teachers is very high in Lagos. The administration has granted the ministry permission to replace retired teachers.

“Aside from recruitment, we have spent a lot on the training of current teachers to improve their teaching skills in classrooms. And this COVID-19 period was the time when we were able to do a lot of things in the education sector of Lagos state.”

On Read Aloud Initiative, the Director-General, Office of Education Quality Assurance, Mrs. Abiola Seriki-Ayeni, said: “As an education quality assurance person, I was moved by the conviction that children perform better when they are led in the act of reading by someone else.”

Therefore, Reading-Aloud is expected to be the most important activity for building the knowledge required for eventual success.”

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ONDO STATE STUDENT’S, LAGOS AXIS

Ref:NAOSS/LAG/010

OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE

HEADLINE: The impeachment of Senate President/ Suspension of Executive President.

OUR STAND:

The National Association of Ondo State Students in Lagos State (NAOSS LAGOS), also known as THE LAGOS BROTHERS or LAGOS FAMILY has been a core part of The NAOSS National Body from time immemorial. Characterized by the uniqueness of ideas, cultural enthusiasm, educational vibrancy and dynamism; the Association has since its existence pledged her irreversible allegiance to the achievement of one strong NAOSS.

At this crucial hour that waves of disunity, insubordination, schism, feud and all sorts of unpalatable news are ravaging the National Body, we sincerely wish to make our stand on all these known to the entire NAOSSITES.

First, we have over the hours received summons from various arms of the National Body to decide an impeachment process either for or against the said call. However we remained committed to a very Strong and United NAOSS, we wish to let you know that all our available progressive minded senators and stakeholders are at present deliberating on the way forward. To this end, we urge you to kindly disregard any publication carrying the name of any Senator from any institution in Lagos State.

The institutions which include: Lagos State University, Ojo (LASU), University of Lagos, Akoka (Unilag), Yaba College of Technology, Yaba (YABATECH), Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu (LASPOTECH), Michael Otedola College of Primary Education, Epe (MOCPED), Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education, Ijanikin (AOCOED), Federal College of Education (Technical), Akoka (FCET), Federal College of Marine Institution, Victoria Island (OCEANOGRAPHY), Nigeria French Language Village, Badagry (French Village), Ogun State Institute of Technology, Igbesa (Ogitech), National Open University (Lagos Study Center) amongst others; have not made any tangible decision as to whether to sign any petition or call for impeachment.

On the contrary, we call on the National leaders from both arms of the National Association (The Executive Arm and the Senate Arm) to kindly look for a way to settle rifts between them amicably. This administration has come too far to fail. We have come too far to start a ruinous war that will tear apart the NAOSS we have painstakingly laboured for.

In as much as we are committed to serving a united NAOSS, it will be impossible for us to support or affirm a decision that is harshly made from irrational situations nor the one made in retaliation.

We also use this medium to call on the National Body officials, both Senate and the Executive arms, including all stakeholders and the entire NAOSSITES to kindly intercede in this ravaging fire that is likely to quench the glorious flag of unity in the Association.

Aluta Continua, Victoria Ascerta!!

The National Universities Commission, NUC, recently released the results of the October/November 2019 Accreditation of Academic Programmes of four of our programmes in OOU (Transport Management, Physiology, Fine and Applied Arts, and Applied Zoology). I am pleased to confirm that we obtained FULL Accreditation for ALL the four programmes presented. I must congratulate and appreciate all members of staff for the support that made this possible.

It is quite elating that of the 72 academic programmes of the University accredited by the National Universities Commission, 70 have FULL accreditation status while Anatomy and Architecture programmes has Interim and Denied status, respectively. The deficiencies identified in the accreditation status of these two programmes were largely due to inadequacy in space and are being addressed by the on-going construction of Departmental building for the Anatomy and Morbid Anatomy Department in Sagamu Campus and the construction of six modern studios for the Architecture programme at the lbogun Campus. These projects are due for completion before the next accreditation exercise in November 2020 and, with your support and that of the State Government, we will, God willing, get full accreditation status for the two academic programmes.

The University has moved from 76% FULL accreditation status of our academic programmes that we met on assumption of office in 2017 to 97.2%. This is arguably one of the best in the Nigerian University System and it has been achieved with the support of all staff and that of Council, and goodwill of the State Government. It is my prayer that this momentum will be sustained during the upcoming accreditation of 44 academic programmes that are due in November 2020. I have no doubt that with your usual support and our ‘CAN DO’ spirit, and the anticipated release of funds and goodwill of the State Government, we shall also record successful outcomes.

Both for those of us back to our duties and those still working from home, in line with the recent directives of the State Government, I enjoin you to continue to observe strictly the guidelines of the National Centre for Disease Control on the prevention measures against the Coronavirus disease including use of face masks, frequent hand washing, use of sanitizers, and social and physical distancing, among others. Whether at home or at work, we should strive to be safe at all times.

Together shall we achieve the dreams of the founding fathers of OOU to build a University we can all be proud of.
Thank you

GO Olatunde
Vice-Chancellor

NOTE:We will update you all for more once we have more schools that are accepting second choice.

I have always said that your JAMB score alone does not guarantee admission. Regardless of your JAMB score, do not joke with your Post-UTME. This is because Post UTME carries a large percentage in the total score that determines whether or not you gain admission. So a good performance in Post-UTME will help you gain admission even with your low Jamb score.

Don’t abandon your books because you have a high JAMB score. You are supposed to study hard also for your Post-UTME exam. As a matter of fact, in some schools, a high Post-UTME will increase your chances of gaining admission more than a high JAMB score. Nevertheless, it is better to have both a high JAMB score and a high Post-UTME score.

This means you should strive to do well in your Post-UTME. Especially for candidates that scored low in JAMB, Post-UTME is a good opportunity to boost your score.

Over the years, we have observed that candidates with low JAMB scores but high Post UTME scores, securing admission despite the low jamb Score; provided they are able to meet the cut-off mark of their schools of choice.

Schools like UNIBEN takes Post-UTME score very serious. Regardless of your JAMB score once you score anything below 50 in UNIBEN’s Post-UTME. There is a high possibility that you won’t be considered for admission,

In UNIBEN, Post-UTME carries 50 percent of the total score that determines your admission. Based on experience, UNIBEN divides the JAMB score by 8 and Post UTME score by 2. If you scored 200 in JAMB and 90 in Post UTME for instance; UNIBEN will divide your Jamb score by 8 and your Post UTME score by 2.

200 divided by 8 is equal to 25 and 90 divided by 2 is 45. Therefore, 25 plus 45 gives you 70. With such as your total admission score, you have a good chance of getting admission into any course of your choice in UNIBEN.

In conclusion, while it is good to score high both in Jamb and Post UTME, you can still gain admission to study your desired course if you do well in Post UTME irrespective of your Jamb score. So don’t procrastinate; you can get the Original Post-UTME Past Questions and answers of your school of choice and start preparing
