With due honour to your dignified position sir, I write as a true son of the soil not to rescind the principle of your governance but to seek sense to your authorities where one cannot be found. May the cause of truth, justice and humanity shall in no wise suffer at your hand.
My attention has be drawn to recent action and surreptitious move by the Rector and the management of The Ibadan Polytechnic in respect to burning of Student’s phone.
Firstly I wish to condemned the action of the so called management of The Polytechnic Ibadan, as this their action embarrassed good reasoning and ridicule public understanding, burning of Student’s phone is not appropriate as penalty for examination mal practice as some of this students whose phone were burnt were innocent as their phone was inside their bag outside the exam hall, even as an elite and rational human being it is expected of you to deal with the students caught doing examination mal practice by summon such students to face panel instead of the management taken law on their hands which has against the rule of law and fundamental human rights. There are ways you punished and penalised students for examination mal practice rather than you burning their phone..
If I may be allowed to go through memory lane,The Ibadan Polytechnic has been known to be the first Polytechnic in Oyo since the state is not blessed with any Federal Polytechnic. The school is awash with 70% of students from the state (Oyo state) and 30% from neighboring states. Despite all tribulations, the school is being ranked as one of the best higher institutes of learning in the country.
Year in, year out, many students have to pass through human labouring and street hawking before they can obviate extortionate school charges which effect from your policies.
Its so disheartening hearing the news of your action of burning students phones that worth millions of naira in the process of you saying you’re curbing examination mal practice, this your action is uncalled for and it’s a threat to justice.
The economic of the country is too suffocating, So The fact of the matter still remains that burning of Student’s phones worth of 5 million naira is a very wrong decision from you sir. For every act of disobedience has its rightful punishment. I think the ethics of the school should be contained in the Polytechnic’s act. Is that what the senate states concerning malpractices? This is absolutely uncalled for from an elite like you.
Similarly we urge the Oyo state government to swing to action as it is prerogative of the Governor and his cabinet to check mate and cautions the Rector and management of State owned institutions, in which the Polytechnic Ibadan Rector and management has to be call to order on their unjust action of burning the phones of their students, so has not to against the fulfilment of your campaign promises before your victory.
we are of the good reason, So on this note I hereby urge the Rector of The Polytechnic Ibadan to tender a published letter of unreserved apology via the new paper and media house to the Student’s populace concerning the transgression so as to proffer a serene and peaceful haven on their campus.
