NBTE COMMENDS FED POLY OKO ON

INFRASTRUCTURE

The National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) has commended the

Federal Polytechnic Oko, Anambra State over infrastructural development

and expressed confidence that the Rector of the institution, Prof. Godwin

Onu has what it takes to sustain the tempo and make the polytechnic envy

of other institutions.

The Executive Secretary of NBTE, Dr. Mas☂udu Adamu Kazaure in an

interview with POLYNEWS in Abuja also applauded the peace and

tranquility in the polytechnic which he believed contributed to the rapid

transformation of the Federal Polytechnic Oko and enjoined the Staff and

students of the institution to work with the management to make the

school number one in the country.

Assessing the performance of the Board, Kazaure noted that since the

establishment of NBTE in 1974 it has done well in terms of quality control

on Polytechnics, Technical Colleges of Education and other institutions.

According to him, ☜we accredit, review and develop new calendars,

workshops for the institutions and we have done well in this area☝, adding

that the greatest challenge for the Board is the Higher National Diploma(

HND)/Bachelors Degree (B.Sc) dichotomy which he said has become worse

such that people avoid going for polytechnic education.

Calling for creation of another body for polytechnics, he noted that there

are over 400 institutions under the NBTE made up of about 75 polytechnics,

85 Innovation Centres, 161 Technical Education, 45 vocational enterprises

among others and insisted that the idea of splitting the work load of NBTE

is a welcome one.

Giving support to the creation of Polytechnic Commission to oversee affairs

of polytechnics in the country as their counterpart the Nigeria Universities

Commission does for universities, he applauded the development of

education in the country especially of Polytechnics where technical training

dominates.

☜There is need to believe in ourselves to be able to do more. Government is

putting in funds the much they can but it is on record that there is no

where in the world where government alone shoulder the responsibility of

the development of education sector. It behooves on the private sector to

appreciate the circumstance and make more in puts.☝ He stated.

He urged Polytechnics in the country to go entrepreneurial in their teaching

and learning, disclosing that NBTE has commenced a project which

recognizes talents even on the streets which he said is geared towards

harnessing talents at the grass root level for future development.

He commended the Rectors of Polytechnics for maintaining law and order

in their environments and noted that some Polytechnics require perimeter

fencing to checkmate the activities of miscreants adding that NBTE is

working towards achieving that.

“FIGHT AGAINST POVERTY,UNEMPLOYMENT WILL FAIL”

The Director General Energy Commission of Nigeria, Prof. AbubakarSambo has said the fight against poverty and unemployment in the countrywill come to naught without the provision of modern improved energyservices in the country.

Sambo who spoke at the inaugural research training programme yesterdayorganized by Petroleum/Coal and Renewable Energy Research Unit of theFederal Polytechnic Oko, Anambra State was represented by a Director inthe commission Dr. Obiorah Dioha.

He maintained that renewable energy can contribute to poverty alleviationand assist in addressing the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) byproviding modern improved energy services to the poor, disclosing thatrenewable was particularly suited to meet the decentralized energy needs ofpoor rural remote community institutions.

Colleges of Education, Abuja at the workshop

According to him, “this is particularly true of small scale renewables that are

made locally and run on locally available resources. Such systems canprovide energy that is both affordable and a source of employment andenterprise creation for both and urban poor”.

“To achieve this, professionals with broad training and understanding ofrenewable energy production, delivery, consumption, efficiency, economicspolicy and regulations are needed. Unfortunately, Nigeria is faced with twointer-twined problems: a situation of mass unemployment of relativelyskilled man power produced through formal and informal educationalsystem and lack of man power in energy related fields”. He pointed out.

He particularly commended the Federal Polytechnic Oko for rising up toaddress the problem and sharing in the mandate of the Energy Commissionof Nigeria to promote training and man power development in the energysector of the country.

The Rector of the Polytechnic, Prof. Godwin Onu who was represented byhis Deputy, Dr. Don Muo in a keynote address congratulated the Researchunit of the institution for the laudable stride in the collective academicendeavour and urged them to sustain the tempo.

He emphasized the role of research in education and praised the timing andaptness of the workshop and the theme:excelling in training renewableenergy human resource base.He expressed worry that a lot of people were groping in the dark by wastingso much money on diesel and fuel for generation of power and at the sametime polluting the environment, causing global warming as a result of theemission of carbon not knowing that greater power could be generated byalternative energy sources devoid of pollution.The Director of the Research unit, Mrs. Awuzie Chioma in an address notedthat the workshop was geared towards ‘training, upskilling and updating the

polytechnic community on this new technology’ which is alternative energy.

Mrs Chioma Awuzie, Director, PECREER Unit

According to her, “my vision is to make this unit a leading institute inrenewable energy science and engineering which will provide the foundationfor innovation in efficient and low cost renewable energy technologies”

adding that the unit will continue to train and upskill renewable energyhuman resource base”.

She therefore called for the establishment of a renewable energy centre inthe Federal polytechnic Oko as was done in six universities in the countrybearing in mind that polytechnics are technically based and practical

oriented, adding that Oko is the only polytechnic in Nigeria that has arenewable energy unit.

According to him, if the menace was not checked before the rainy season,many buildings will be eroded including his ancestral home because theabandoned drainage project that has been controlling the erosion has beencut off by the landslide.

One of the victims whose house stands less than two metres away from thelandslide site Mr. Martin Ezeofor said he has been forced to move his familyto a safer place, adding that it was only a tree that hears that it will be cutdown and stands.

He appealed to the Federal government to come to their aids before theentire communities were washed away.

SABBATICAL LEAVEAmah Out, Asoegwu inManagement of the Polytechnic has approved the release Amah FerdinandE. of the department of Quantity Surveying Department for one yearsabbatical leave in Federal College of Education (Technical), Umunze. In aletter to Amah which was signed by A.O. Umeozor, the Deputy Registrar incharge of Personnel, Management reminded him of his promise to alwayscover his duties while on sabbatical leave. “Please, note your promise toalways cover your duties while on Sabbatical leave”, the letter said.

In a similar development, Management has approved the request for oneyear sabbatical leave in the polytechnic made by Dr. Asoegwu M.N.N.Following Management’s approval of his request, he has been placed on

CONTISS 15 as Chief Lecturer in the Department of Accountancy, Schoolof Financial Studies with effect from the day he assumes duty. His approvalletter states, “Please, report at the Personnel Unit upon receipt of this letterfor necessary documentation”.

MGT DIRECTS STAFF TO REFUND MONEYTwo staff of the polytechnic who were sponsored to an InternationalConference but could not attend the conference have been asked to refundthe money. The staff include:

Mrs G.U. Anene (Department of Natural Science)Management acknowledged receipt of your response to the query issued toyou on the above subject.

It frowned at your response which was totally unaccepted. Management wasof the view that you ought to have declared your intention of not attendingthe conference rather than taking your own personal decision which wascontrary to the extant regulations. Presentation of papers by proxy was notapproved for you.

Your act therefore amounted to serious misconduct which may attract severedisciplinary action.

In view of the above, I am directed to ask you to refund to the polytechnicthe total sum of one hundred and seventy-seven thousand, five hundred naira(N177,500) which you were paid despite paying conference fee by proxy.You are by this letter informed accordingly.

You were further directed to imbibe the principle of due process knowingfull well that the Rector is the final step in the administrative ladder, and notthe preliminary step. The Registrar takes the preliminary processes andrecommends to the Rector.

You are also warned in view of the consequences of your actions not toindulge in any of such similar act as a repeat occurrence may attract a moresevere disciplinary action…

Nzekwe Regina Ujunwa (SERVICOM Unit)Refer to the query issued to you on the above subject and your responses inyour letter dated 4th November, 2011. Be informed that Management haslooked into your various representations on the matter, and was not satisfiedwith your explanations.

Management viewed that you were not serious after giving you such agolden opportunity to update your knowledge. You should recall thatpresentation of conference paper by proxy was not the initial arrangement,and therefore not accepted by Management. Should anything have preventedyou from attending the conference after the necessary arrangement, youwere expected to inform your employer who made such approval for you.You ought not to have made your personal arrangements, bearing in mindthat you are a subordinate officer.

Against this backdrop, I am directed to ask you to refund a total sum of onehundred and ninety-two thousand naira (N192,000) which you were paid toattend the conference.

I am further directed to warn you to desist from such acts which may putyour image and that of the polytechnic in the dark, as a repeat of any ofsimilar act(s) may attract you a severe disciplinary action…

Would you like to reach the Rector on any issue

of concern to the Institution?
