WHAT'S UP :SCREENING,STRIKE AND OTHER ISSUES



What’s up ladies and gentlemen of ksu, or paau. It’s been a rather sub-due week in the KSU world, with the screening registration and preparation still in the mix. The release of NECO results is coming at the best possible time for aspirants.
Down to the issues;

ISSUES:
-         Second semester registration has commenced for undergraduates: Students can now go to the school portal and register their second semester courses and also begin to sign their course forms. However, it is important to note that this is (at the moment) applicable to 100 level students as 200 level upward will have to wait for the release of the previous session’s second semester results (in case of carry overs).
-      Neco june/july ssce results for 2016 released   : Great news for aspirants who have some few problems with their WAEC results and will be looking to combine both results.
-         Direct entry form now on sale: Interested candidates can now apply.
-         ASUU denies threatening to embark on strike: This week’s (and several other weeks) most topical issue. Recall that some reports had stated that the Academic Staff Union of Universities had slated October 2nd for a nationwide warning strike, and a full blown strike in November if the federal government failed to look into the issues they tabled. This report was emphatically denied and the strike report has been laid to rest, well, at least for now. This is more like the best news of the year for the KSU world, something of the sort (if you know what I mean). We’ve done three (fricking) months already, any news of strike is just not good at this point. Please, no more strike news, no more.

That’s it for this week. Stay blessed.
Am out !!

WHATS UP


What’s up people. Its our first what’s write up for some weeks now and we promise you guys more consistency. So, without much famzing, lets dive into the world of KSU (or PAAU, whichever suits you better) and review some issues that’s has gone down over the course of the month along with some talking points.
News :
This is to inform all prospective UTME candidates who applied for admission into Kogi State University, Anyigba for the 2016/2017 Academic Session that Admission screening will take place between Monday, 26th September, 2016 to Wednesday, 12th October, 2016. The admission screening will be purely interactive. Registration Closes on the Wednesday, 14th September, 2016 at midnight.

The School Fees Payment for KSU Undergraduate, Pre-degree and Diploma School Fees and Admission Letter is up. Students (Bothe Fresher and Returning) can walk into any Zenithbank Branch Nationwide, pay and collect your PIN instantly before resumption. The account numbers will be made available to you at each branch.

Knowing fully well that’s its screening season for our incoming jambitos, our talking point is going to revolve around this.

Am sure all aspirants are aware of the registration steps by now (if not, click here). As a matter of fact some itchy ones already got their hands around the screening form thingy, but majority of them (and us, staylites, for curious reasons) are wondering what this screening will be like. It’s the first time a screening would be done in an interactive format, which raises some few questions;

#1. What kind of questions will be asked ?

Its quite funny trying to imagine what sort of questions will be asked. Will they ask what kind of food you eat or what kind of music you listen to (just kidding). Those are less likely questions. Obviously, the school management will create questions to be asked, which will vary from one faculty to another (am assuming). Some am assuming that the questions will be centered around what the individual knows about his faculty or study (you know, science questions for science aspirants, art questions for art student and so on). In this case its important for all aspirants taking part in this screening exercise to get themselves loaded with this knowledge just in case.

#2. Are less – eloquent speakers going to be considered or flagged off ?

The screening exercise is quite simply a “post – utme” extension, but this time it doesn’t require computer operating abilities unlike the last set, it’s requires an ability of of expressing oneself in a perfectly understandable manner, using the English language very well. The question however is will people who have difficulties expressing themselves due to the tension or not been able to use the English language properly still be considered or totally flagged off (with lecturers bemused of how this aspirants even passed through secondary school). The latter seems likely.

#3. Will tribe play its role as usual in the KSU world ?

In most things done in KSU, tribe always seem to play a major role as it helps some people and doesn’t help others (even on ATM queues). So, will tribe play a major role in dishing out admission or admission is going to be handed out by merit ? we wait and see.

#Pointers :

-          Proper dressing is important. Less flashy the better. Also guys, watch your hair cut if you don’t want to stay at home for another year.
-          Learn a lot about subjects relating to your course of study.
-          Make sure you are able to express yourself properly.
-          Also compose yourself properly. The exercise is just some few minutes.
-          Adhere to instructions.
-          Know thy God

I hope this has been helpful in some capacity, do your best and leave the rest to God


Am out !!!!

24th IS THE DATE,ANYIGBA IS THE PLACE. FOLDER - STYLE BREAKDOWN OF THE MEMORANDUM,RESUMPTION DATE AND SUG's COMMENT

Its no news anymore, the news broke some hours ago  the school management has released a memorandum stating that students should resume on 24th of this month. If you haven't heard then where have you been ??

Read the content of the memorandum below :

"Following an understanding reached,the university management committee (UMC) has directed immediate re - opening of academic activities in the university.

Consequently,I write to inform students/members of the university that the students are to arrive on sunday 24th July,2016 while the revision week begins on monday 25th - Saturday, 30th of July 2016. Examination begins on 1st of August 2016.

All students are to obtain details of the revised calendar from the office of the Director Academic planning/Development."

You can view the photo  here

The Student Union Government Government though,  through its PRO    has commented on the memorandum and the situation in general :

"From the desk of the Students Union Government, We support no warring party. Our interest and agitation is that Kogi State University Students are called back to classes and as such we are intertem with anyone who supports our cause. That is to say, we are asking our fellow students to support the managements decision that all students of Kogi state University Anyingba resume on Sunday 24th July 2016. The management has as put structures together that academic activities will commence on Monday 25/07/2016 through its memo released on 20th of July. The students union government wishes to thank every students for their patriotic roles played during the course of this strike we advise that students take this serious and use the available window as revision as we are fully in support that examinations commences on 1st August 2016.
signed SUG PRO: Ogiri Emmanuel Cosmos."

Recall that the Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, directed the Vice Chancellor of the Kogi State University, Anyigba to reopen the school on Monday.

This was after three months industrial action by members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities of the institution.

Governor Bello said having met the major demands of the lecturers, they are expected to return to classes.

He said his government will continue to place premium attention to education, urging the different heads of tertiary institutions in the State to deepen the culture of patriotism and hard work among their staff members.

According to the Governor, the Treasury Single Account will soon come afloat in the State, stating that public accountability will remain the hallmark of his administration.

Bello said having paid six months salaries in just six months into his tenure, his government should be trusted by the lecturers.

The Governor promised to look into cases of over- taxation of lecturers in the past, saying cases of unjust taxation will be redressed, adding that the approval on the subject matter, which was handed over to him, was for tax waiver.

He directed full scale audit of all tertiary institutions in the State.

Responding, the heads of the tertiary institutions thanked the Governor for paying four months salary arrears owed by the previous administration.

They said the gesture is a signature of the Governor’s commitment to tertiary education in
the State.

At this point students are a tad confused as to why they should resume when ASUU hasn't called off the strike just yet. Its however safe to resume around 24th of July as their are strong indications that the strike will be called off(officially) before then.

And by the way, its PAAU now, not KSU

Safe journey back to school

On The Heels of A Successful Protest Action ,Govt/ASUU Blind Pride Game Might Still Linger On


 In the past three(3) months I've been waking up everyday wondering if the Kogi State Government(and everyone attached to it) are just been intentionally stubborn and stone headed or they are naturally dimwitted,and right in the midst of my lonely wonders came this report from the    Daily Trust ; on the heels of the protest on thursday morning Special Adviser to the governor on Media and
Strategy, Mallam Abdulkarim Abdulmalik told reporters this :

"The ASUU grouse was premised on falsehood. They were owed five months arrears, four months has been cleared which represents 80 percent of the obligation owe to them. Only 40 percent of the bailout was released to government so where did they (ASUU) expect the government to go and take the balance from?

 "Primary school teachers are there, secondary school teachers are there. They have not gotten as much as ASUU has gotten. Therefore, the students' action is ill motivated because the students should rather be fighting their lecturers for refusing to return to classes afer collecting four months salary arrears. Between ASUU and the government."

Now,am not quite sure if he understands the essence of that protest action. We simply don't care about what's up with the bail out fund,or how many teachers have been paid in the state. We have made it known that we are downright tired of staying athome for months when we are supposed to be in school learning. We don't care about what's going on in the state,we just don't care,just like ASUU don't care about what's going on in the state,we too don't care, afterall the education is not free,we paid fees to acquire it . These ASUU members are the same set of people who weren't paid salaries for "5 whole months" and left to live on little to nothing as they do their jobs and teach students,for five months. Now they're demanding their pay and its not proper,really,how logical is that. Call them selfish,self-centered and self- absorbed,but their irghts remain their rights.  And now we've suffered for all that for 3 months.

He furthered his comment by adding this :

"The truth of the matter is that there are unseen hands behind this unrest and government is appealing to these students to remain rational. However, government will not joke with the interest of the students and members of the public because the government feels the pinch of the difficulty the parents of the students are going through"

Unseen hands....really...no comments


Just some minutes ago, in a terse reaction on social media, the acting chairman of ASUU, Dr. Daniel Aina had this to say :

“the reverberation of concocted trajectories and tantrums at our persons belong to the dustbin. We speak to issues and love the people. Truth is like a cork- always afloat. To keep it submerged, energy MUST be expended. No matter for how long, when the expenditure of energy ceases, it will come afloat. Play your record to the world. ASUU KSU did not say it signed any MoU with government.

“The govt team felt embarrassed by the action of the students. According to them, the students insisted on seeing ASUU and government talking, school to reopen on Monday and government to pay outstanding salaries owed.

“To the first count we said we are always available for dialogue. There is no time we have refused invitation.

“To the second we told them we aren’t the school management. The onus of reopening the University lies on the management.

“To the third, we told them that if the outstanding salaries are paid, within two days we would reinstate our services.

“They started politicking – we will pay one month within ten days and pay the rest later. We said they should pay one immediately and let us sign an MoU for the outstanding. They then revealed to us that the ten days cannot be guaranteed and that they cannot sign an MoU with us. We informed the government team that they have summoned us because of the problem they are facing.

“We volunteered to help out to pacify the students. The summary of our speech to the students was that they have made an historical mark, which should suffice for govt to take a cue and do the needful but that nothing substantial have come out. We tried to attribute it to the absence of his Excellency, so they should be patient. ASUU KSU is currently on no pay no work action. Let the government do the needful and we’ll resume work. FALSIFICATION AND PROPAGANDA WILL NOT WORK!!”.

Well,from where I stand it looks likely that this pride/ego game by the Kogi State Government and ASUU may linger on a bit longer,even after the commendable heroics shown by NANS,NAKOSS,KSU SUG and every KSU students that took part in the protest action on Thursday, except off course their are strategies put in place to further make our voices heard,which the SUG PRO indicated on his facebook timeline 16 hours ago ;

"Yesterday message was so strong, history made and glory to the students. We gave no audience to any government representatives that came, all we needed is for Bello and ASUU chairman to reopen Kogi State University with immediate effect; though ASUU chairman came and addressed us after his meeting with the government representatives. ASUU chairman statement is on record and we holding them responsible to the chairman's statement. He said that the government has asserted to their MOU and that his Excellency is not in the state to sign. However he pleaded with us to give them ten days from now to hold a congress. Students are advised to stay in their various houses as the students union government is high in spirit, hence we not waiting for any ten days but we giving ASUU from today to monday to put their houses together and should in case nothing is done at the end of Monday we shall strategize and take a more dreaded step on Wednesday 20th July 2016."

"ASUU Did Not, And Has Never Claimed That it Signed Any Memorandum of Understanding, MoU, with Kogi state government." - KSU ASUU Chairman

  The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Kogi State University, Anyigba chapter, has kicked against mis- representation of facts on the current ‘no pay, no work’ embarked upon by the institution’s lecturers.

In a terse reaction on social media, the acting chairman of the union, Dr. Daniel Aina, chided the government negotiating team for resorting to propaganda and falsification.

Setting the records straight, Aina stated that ASUU did not, and has never claimed that it signed any memorandum of understanding, MoU, with Kogi state government.

In his words, “the reverberation of concocted trajectories and tantrums at our persons belong to the dustbin.

We speak to issues and love the people. Truth is like a cork- always afloat. To keep it submerged, energy MUST be expended. No matter for how long, when the expenditure of energy ceases, it will come afloat. Play your record to the world. ASUU KSU did not say it signed any MoU with government.

SUG PRESIDENT REVEALS PLANS FOR STUDENT CENTRE

The SUG President Philip Shaibu Omepa on friday evening revealed plans to create a "STUDENT CENTRE" for KSU students by the union.
He posted this on his FACEBOOK TIMELINE :
 "The proposed student center by the SUG 2015/2016 .... The Student Center shall serve as the official, legal and recognized student ground of Kogi State University. It shall serve academic purposes as well as social and recreational purposes.
The student center shall provide:
Free meeting hall for students Affordable computer services ranging from internet services, printing and photocopying, lamination.
Low price eatery/ cafeteria Affordable gym center Affordable laundry services for students Free indoor sport facilities(badminton, table tennis, snooker, chess etc) Football viewing facilities and cinema.
 It is quite obvious that the SUG does not have enough money that will bring this project to completion. We therefore, seek the support of government, private bodies and organisations, as well as notable individuals for the actualization of this great project. We thus anticipate a positive response to this proposal."

Kogi State Governor 'Yahaya Bello' Renames State University After Late Abubakar Audu

 Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi on Friday renamed the Kogi State University, Ayangba, after the late first civilian governor of the state, Abubakar Audu. Bello announced the change in the name of the 15- year-old university during a statewide broadcast to mark his victory at the state governorship election petition tribunal. He said that naming the university was the ultimate honor that could be done to the memory of the late colorful politician who ruled the state twice as the civilian governor from 1991 to 1993 and 1999 to 2003. Audu himself established the university in 2001 and named it Prince Abubakar Audu University but his successor, Alhaji Ibrahim Idris changed the name to Kogi State University in 2004. Justifying his decision to restore the university to its original name, Bello said that Audu laid a solid foundation for the growth and development of the state
 “Today, and as always, I celebrate the life and times of Prince Abubakar Audu, the first Executive Governor of Kogi State. It is our hope that those who want to lay claim to his legacy will at least develop the same heart for the growth and development of Kogi State that he demonstrated through his lifetime,” he said. According to the governor, an executive bill will soon be forwarded to the house of assembly to formalise the change in the name of the university. Audu, who was the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the November 21st 2015 governorship election in the state, died suddenly on November 22nd before the result of the election was announced. The leadership of the APC consequently substituted the name of Audu with that of Yahaya Bello as the candidate in the supplementary governorship election held on December 5th 2015.
The governor also used the broadcast to thank the people of the state for their support and understanding since his assumption of office in January . He said that since the five petitions filed against him had been thrown out for lack of merit, the state was now set to witness a new direction and accelerated development. According to Bello, a blueprint of the administration which will kick start creation of one million jobs for the unemployed youths will be unveiled by next week. He called on all those who lost at the tribunal, irrespective of their political affiliation, to join hands with him to develop the state, saying “there was no victor, no vanquish”.

"It is important that we state without any reservation that our lives as Student Union Leaders has been under threat as we have been variously accused of taken bribe or threatened by the state government and the University Management simultaneously to compromise our mandate. We no longer move freely among our fellow students,who out of frustration and anger have marked us for attack.
Aluta continua,victoria ascerte !!! Amala Aweitsu, Nothing Shall Discourage Us !"
