OAU’S Law, Med. Rehab., Dentistry and Botany:
The Dis-accreditation, and
the Untold Truth About it All
Everything I want
to write right now is from the offices and also from experience. So please,
keep what you have read on those Whatsapp and Facebook groups and the recycled
misleading write-ups you have read on other blog sites for a while to get this
truth you won’t get from anywhere else but on PEC-ng, and maybe also on other
blogs that are always coming on this site to steal my write-ups.
Not quite long,
departments in OAU received visitors—lecturers of other schools sent by NUC to
evaluate the departments. They certainly don’t do that so often, because that
was my first time of experiencing such visit in my 11 years of studying and
working in and around OAU. NUC uses lecturers of one school to evaluate another
school and give feedback on whether some departments should be offering their
courses or not. It is how they grant the accreditation a university needs to be
able to train students for a particular discipline. But me, I must make this
comment about the so called evaluation done in OAU, it was full of episodes of
nonsense, and it’s a means of wasting resources—money and time especially. The
evaluators only came to eat the meals the staffs of the departments assigned to
them to evaluate. It pains me to say also that all the departments—exempting
none—were just running up and down to raise funds and borrow the facilities
they should have from everywhere and anywhere, just to impress the evaluators
coming.
But the running up
and down to prepare some nice meal and some heavy envelopes for the evaluators
was more serious than the run to borrow what they should have actually. The
reason for that being that, it is actually the food and the envelopes the
evaluators came to evaluate, the better the food and the envelopes, the easier
the evaluation goes. Which brings us to the truth about the dis-accreditation
of some departments, these departments didn’t “do normal”, that’s why they got
the bad report that made them lose their accreditation. As an aspirant, this is
not your problem, but I had to talk about it so you know the source of the
problem. Knowing the source of a problem makes it easier to address. Now let’s
address the problem.
As an aspirant of
the departments having the dis-accreditation problem, you are thinking write
now: “what should I do? Should I change my course or stick to the course and
institution I have chosen?” I will provide my answers to these questions in the
form of informing you of what the outcomes of this dis-accreditation issue
would be, so you could weigh the odds and know which one to go for.
To start with, I
must let you know this is not the first time some departments will be losing
accreditation in OAU, but the most recent one before the one happening right
now happened in 2006 when the Faculty of Law was disaccredited. That year,
students of the Faculty of Law had to transfer to other departments. Those who
wanted Law by all means with less care about where they are getting it from had
to transfer to another school to continue their Law programme. If same will be
happening again this session, it would only mean OAU will not be admitting
students to the dis-accredited departments this session. Which means you will
have to change course/institution as advised by JAMB.
On the other side,
OAU is a very rebellious institution—the students are rebellious, and even the
management too. So, there is the possibility that OAU will rebel against NUC
and JAMB and still admit students to these departments anyways. Which would be
a thing of regret if you have changed away from these departments and yet
admission is offered to students who didn’t change. You will just end up being
one of those students who wanted OAU but couldn’t get it, or one of those
students who want a particular course but couldn’t get it, then turned bitter
against the school and people who got the course they wanted. You don’t want to
join that group.
This one is very
vital and you must pay your best attention to it; if OAU will not rebel against
NUC and JAMB and does not admit students to the dis-accredited departments this
year, and you don’t change course, I promise you, OAU will not because you have
chosen any dis-accredited course then offer you admission to a department you
didn’t apply to. This is why you have to be very careful what you want to do
about this dis-accreditation thing. You have to be very sure what you want to
do so you won’t be scolding yourself for being too fast or too slow to make a
decision about this when OAU eventually do what they would do about this. For
us in the system, we can only keep watching to see how OAU will react to the
dis-accreditation. You will keep reading from me about this. Let’s just keep
hoping this ends well.
