Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo bagged a Master’s Degree in Theology at the fifth convocation of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) on Saturday.

OBJ convo

The Vice-Chancellor of the University, Prof. Vincent Tenebe, said in his address at the ceremony that Obasanjo was among other notable Nigerians in the list of the 10,653 graduands which also included the Emir of Hadejia, Jigawa State, Alhaji Adamu Abubakar and the traditional ruler of Awgu, Enugu State, Igwe Felix Okechukwu.

“Having been given the admission to study MA/PhD in Christian Theology, Obasanjo will continue with his Ph.D fully.

“This is very unique considering his age and commitments; he also made a very good cumulative grade point,” Tenebe said.

Speaking further, the VC said that NOUN had achieved its primary mandate of having study centres in all the state capitals across the country. The institution said it will commence the last aspect of its mandate, which is to establish study centres in all the 774 local governments in the next 15 years.

He said that the total number of study centre across the country stood at 72 alongside four new research centres.

Tenebe also appealed to relevant authorities to admit graduates of NOUN into law school as was done in other countries.

“We will not relent in our appeal to the Council for Legal Education to give NOUN Law graduates the opportunity to attend the Law School and be called to the Bar.

“If other countries such as UK, India, South Africa, Tanzania, among others allow their Open Universities’ Law graduates to attend Law School and are called to the Bar, Nigeria has no justifiable reasons to hold her Open University graduates down.

“We must move forward in all these areas as a progressive country,” he said.

Rate Of Cultism In Edo Primary Schools Alarming – Police

The Commissioner of Police in Edo State, CP Chris Ezike, has raised the alarm over the high rate of cultism in primary and secondary schools in the state.

Chris-Ezike

The commissioner disclosed this yesterday during the disbursement of scholarship to six pupils of the Police Children’s School I and II, Benin.

According to Ezike, cultism had gone beyond tertiary institutions where it was known to be prevalent, and had penetrated the wall of institutions of lower education.

He urged parents and guardians to pay adequate attention on the actions of their children and wards, especially as it affects the companies they keep even as he advised them not to be too busy to look after their children.

He also appealed to the teachers not to relent in their effort at impacting positive ideals on the children.

“Having said that, I want to ask all DPOs, whose jurisdiction cover our police primary and secondary schools or police institutions, to do their utmost best to offer the necessary security and safety that the children need.

“If you have problems doing, get back to the DC, Ops, who will reinforce you to ensure their safety and security are not compromised”, CP Ezike said.
