Abia College Moves To Investigate Results Issued By Institution
The Abia State College of Education (Technical), Arochukwu (ASCETA) has set up a three-man ad-hoc committee to investigate results issued by the institution from 2016 to date with a view to establishing their authenticity.
The provost of the college, Dr Philips Nto, announced this at the end of the institution’s emergency Academic Board Meeting in Arochukwu.
Dr Nto who disclosed that the committee is headed by Dr Abdulkareem Jubril explained that the measure was adopted to ensure that fraudulent people do not forge and use the results of the Institution.
He said information at the disposal of the college indicates that unscrupulous persons were colluding with dishonest ASCETA staff to produce fake results which did not emanate from the college.
He said while the college had taken proactive measures to check such an unwholesome practice, the committee will dig deeper to ensure that culprits are punished.
The provost said the committee which has two-weeks within which to submit its findings will focus on students who were previously admitted under it’s distance learning programme.
Describing as unfortunate the attempt by unqualified people to fake the results of ASCETA, Dr Nto vowed that such would not happen under his watch.
He charged the committee members to be thorough and professional in the discharge of their assignments, warning that any staff established to be aiding and abetting the issuance of fake results would not be spared.
The River State Commissioner for Education, Dr Peters Nwagor has called on media practitioners in Rivers State to deploy their various communication platforms toward promoting government programmes and policies aimed at achieving sustainable development in the education sector. Dr. Nwagor made the appeal when members of the Etche Ethnic Practicing Journalists (EEPJ) paid him a courtesy visit in Office in Port Harcourt. The Commissioner emphasized the strategic role of the media in shaping public perception, promoting government initiatives, and supporting policies capable of improving the quality of education and human capital development in the state. According to him, constructive media engagement remains essential in creating public awareness on educational reforms, students’ welfare, infrastructural improvements, and other interventions being implemented by the state government.
