Crackdown on immigration Hundred of Ghanaians, other students in UK to be sacked

Ghanaian students and other students from non-EU countries are to be banned from working in Britain under a fresh crackdown on immigration ordered by Home SecretaryTheresa May.
According to the new rules likely to be introduced soon all students would be asked to return to their countries when they end their courses before reapplying to return for a job.
Ministers say the new rules, which will apply to all those from outside the European Union, will stop colleges being used as a ‘back door to a British work visa’.
Official figures show that 121,000 non-EU students entered the UK in the 12 months to June last year, but only 51,000 left – a net influx of 70,000.
The government estimates that the number of foreign students coming to the UK will rise by more than 6 per cent a year up to 2020.
Home Secretary Theresa May has also taken action against 870 bogus colleges, banning them from taking foreign students.
The new laws will stop student visas being used as an easy way to enter the UK before getting a job and claiming benefits.
Under the new rules, non-EU students will be denied the right to work while in the UK and will not be able to apply for a visa extension when their course ends.
Students will have to leave the country before applying to return under a work visa.
The length of stay is also expected to be cut to two years when the plans are unveiled this week.
Immigration minister James Brokenshire said colleges should not be a ‘back door’ to a work visa while Business SecretarySajidJavidsaid students should leave the UK when their courses finishes.
But universities have warned that any clampdown could damage the sector and business leaders are also wary of the move, warning it could rob Britain of vital skills.
Seamus Nevin, head of employment and skills at the Institute of Directors, said: ‘The Business Secretary’s proposals to eject foreign students after graduation are misguided and would damage the British education system, our economy and global influence.
‘Britain already makes it difficult and artificially expensive for international students to enter and stay, and now these proposals would eject them ignominiously when their studies are finished.
‘Restricting talented workers from staying on in the UK would damage business and lead to a loss of important skills.
‘Shutting the door to highly-trained international graduates at a time when our economy needs them most would be hugely damaging for UK businesses.
‘In the interests our education sector, our businesses, and our international standing, the Business Secretary should reconsider this proposal.’

Niger Delta Ex-militants warn Buhari as Amnesty students remain stranded

Notable ex-militant leaders and former commanders of the Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta, have appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to come to the rescue of the students studying abroad under the Federal Goverment'sPresidential Amnesty Programmebefore violence returns to the Niger Delta region.
Acting under the auspices ofLeadership Peace and Cultural Development Initiative, the ex-militant leaders in a letter signed by their President,Pastor Reuben Wilson, urged Buhari to urgently address issues within the Presidential Amnesty Office.
Last week, the President of the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC), Worldwide, Udengs Eradiri, had said about 6,000 Niger Delta students are being delisted by institutions and facing ejectionfrom their homes after the government failed to pay their due fees.
Some youths had reportedly threatened to begin attacks on oil facilities to compel the government to settle its financial obligations to the students.
In the letter, they said the amnesty, which was initiated by late PresidentUmaru Musa Yar'Adua, helped increase Nigweria's crude oil production and should not be stopped now.
"Thus, with the acceptance and commencement of the programme, our production of oil drastically increased from a paltry 900,000 barrel a day to over 2,000,000 barrels a day while issues of kidnapping and pipeline destruction became minimal," the letter read.
"This upsurge brought about increase in our national income. We have, however, acknowledged that with the exit of former President Goodluck Jonathan, the tenure of the former Chairman of PAP came to an end."
Wilson said the students need funds quickly.
"Following late release of funds, the former amnesty boss was unable to pay beneficiaries of the programme their allowances and tuition fees," he further stated.
"As a result, the students and delegates are owed for three months.
The ex-militants noted that it recognizes the challenges facing the new government but expected a different approach.
"However, given the nature of this programme and particularly our recent past, one would have expected that an interim measure, such as was done in the INEC office, would have been instituted to keep the programmes running until such a time Mr. President will find a suitable and qualified person to head the office. "
Yar'Adua’s Amnesty programme had brought peace to the troubles Niger Delta region and crushed militancy.

Nigerian Open Data Access This innovation of FUTA students is the next best thing

Delta Poly Lecturer Kidnappers demand N20 million naira as ransom.

ONE week after his kidnap, abductors of Ozoro Mr. Chike Gbemudu, a lecturer of Delta State Polytechnic, are demanding a N20 million ransom for his release.
According to a source in the school, contact had been established with the kidnappers.
“We cannot fathom the reason for his kidnap. Lectures are not rich, they are mere teachers who are making immense contribution to the development of this country,” the source who spoke on condition of anonymity, said appealing to the kidnappers to release the lecturer unhurt and unconditionally,” the source said.
Gbemudu, who is of the Directorate of General Studies in the institution, was abducted in the early hours of Friday and is still being held hostage by his captors.
Meanwhile, students of the institution have decried the rising wave of armed robbery attacks and other forms of criminality in the metropolis.
The students, who condemned the kidnap of their lecturer, lamented the incessant incidents of armed robbery in their hostels, saying they could hardly sleep with their eyes closed.
Reiterating that they had been suffering brutality and losing valuable items to hoodlums on daily basis, one of the students who sought anonymity, called on security agencies to intensify surveillance in the area.
Efforts to reach the Divisional Police Officer in charge of Ozoro police division, Mr. Evans Onomuighokpo, for comments were abortive at press time.

OAU Shut Down Indefinitely

OBAFEMI Awolowo University has been shut down by the local branch of the Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU) of Educational and Associated Institutions.
The strike has paralysed all commercial and all forms of official activities on the campus.
liveschoolnews.com.ng grapevine gathered that the commenced since last Friday, July 3, at the expiration of a 21-day ultimatum given to the management by the union to pay its members 64 months (accumulated) earned allowances.
Chairman of the union, Mr Wole Odewumi, told our correspondent that the earned allowances were part of an agreement signed with the Federal Government since 2009.
He said part of these allowances, ‘Responsibility Allowance’, had been paid by management, but described the payment as being ‘selective’, as only few senior staff were entitled to it.
According to him, the OAU management had refused to pay that which affects the majority of the people – ‘hazard allowance’, which he said had accumulated for 64 months.
Odewumi said: “They implemented the one that concerns them, but the one that concerns majority of the workers, they have left unpaid. We held several meetings with them over the matter. Eventually, we gave them an ultimatum which elapsed last Friday.”
Asked if the university authorities had made fresh offers to the union since the strike started, Odewumi confirmed that management held a meeting with the union on Wednesday, but described what was offered as ‘token’, thus unacceptable.
When contacted on the matter, the Public Relations Officer of the university, Mr Abiodun Olarewaju, said the university had not paid NASU the allowances because the Federal Government had not paid the money and that this was not peculiar to OAU.
“We issued a circular that as soon as the Federal Government pays the second tranche of that money, we will pay everybody accordingly. We are just appealing to them to give peace a chance and go back to their offices. No federal university in this country has paid that money. They should just give us some time,” he pleaded.
On the allegation of ‘selective payment’, Olarewaju said: “I am not aware of any ‘selective payment’. If they are talking about ‘responsibility allowance’, members of NASU who head units were also paid that allowance.
“Responsibility allowance means if you head a unit and you are not given an official car, but use your money or car to run errands for the university, you are paid a stipend of about N6,000 or N8000. It is not selective.”

Write Post-UTME of Varsities You Didn’t Choose in UTME

Students lament drug abuse in North, seek vocational training

news gathered from pulse.ng

A Northern Nigerian students group,Arewa Students Voice(ASV), has called for vocational training and awareness campaigns to help stem drug abuse in the region's tertiary institutions.

According to reports, the group's Director Media and Publicity, Adam Idris, said a visit to most institutions reveal that drug abuse is the main vice amongst students.
Idris called for the concerted awareness campaigns by the authority to educate the students about the dangers of drug and substance abuse.

Noting also the problems of tribalism, political illiteracy and absence of channels for expression, the spokesperson called for proactive measures.

“Provision of vocational training for students to enable them to be self-reliance as well as preaching peace and unity among different tribes at all levels of studies is also among our concerns as a group,” Idris said.

ASV is a student’s body comprising students from all 19 states in North of Nigeria.

A Computer Science student at theFederal Polytechnic Bida, Niger state,Umah Faruku Ajewole, has built an electronic voting website which he claims can prevent rigging.
According to reports, the website www.acossfpb.com will be used for the department’s forthcoming elections.

Alade called on the management of Nigerian institutions to adopt the system because it is user friendly and cost effective.

Teachers To FG: Increase Our Retirement Age To 65

The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) has reiterated their demands on the retirement age of primary and secondary school teachers in the country and have urged the federal government to raise it from 60 to 65 years.
The union said every education system needs an appropriate quality and quantity of teachers to function properly and the system is plagued by shortage of experienced teachers due to high retirement rate without without corresponding recruitment of teachers to fill the resultant vacancies.
The national president of the union, Comrade Michael Olukoya, who made the call yesterday at the union’s headquarters after observing the union’s founders’ day, stated that “the primary and secondary education sub-sectors in Nigeria requires adequate number of well-trained and experienced teachers to impact knowledge and skills to learners at the foundation level.”
“It is for this and other similar reasons that the retirement age of lecturers and professors in the tertiary institutions was extended from 65-70 years respectively, while that of judges was also increased to 70 years. We therefore wish to restate our demand that the retirement age for primary and secondary school teachers in the country be raised from 60 to 65 years.”
On the security challenge that has plagued the country, the union also urged the federal government to do more in securing institutions of learning to ensure safe and conducive environment for effective teaching and learning to take place as teachers and students have been sorely affected by the development.
“Media reports reveal continuous attacks almost on daily basis which is indicative of the grim reality that the callous attacks of blood-letting is still daunting. We feel pained and demoralised to note the barbaric acts of terror have scuttled and destroyed talents, potentials and lives of our Chibok girls and thousands of other children in the Northeast of Nigeria. ‎It remains an unforgettable experience that over 19,000 teachers were displaced while no fewer that 272 teachers lost their lives.”
Also, Olukoya called on both state and local governments to effect payment of the backlog of salaries and other entitlements owed teachers without further delay as they remain the critical agents of change and transformation.

Kwara Students Protest Non Payment Of Bursary

The state governor, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed was said to have granted representatives of the students an audience.
Ahmed according to Government House source sought the patience and understanding of the students,blaming the non payment of the allowance on dwindling allocation from the federation account.
He was quoted to have pleaded with the protesting students to be calm and not take laws into their hands.

NYSC Begs MDAs To Stop Rejecting Corps Members

The National Youth Service Corps has expressed concern over the rejection of corps members by government institutions to do their internship, directing that henceforth, all organisations especially ministries, departments and agencies should “always accept corps members posted to them for primary assignment.”
A statement issued on Tuesday in Abuja by the NYSC Director of Press and Public Relations, Mrs. Abosede Aderibigbe, reminded the MDAs that “corps members are, as far as possible, posted based on their disciplines and within the limits imposed by the current NYSC posting policy.”
She said, “All corps employers are to note that the corps members answered the clarion call to participate in the national service out of patriotism and have always passionately looked forward to rendering services for the progress of their fatherland.
“In view of the foregoing, all stakeholders, including employers, are requested to always give the young men and women of the NYSC the necessary support and encouragement, by accepting them whenever they are posted for primary assignment.
“It is noteworthy that rejection of corps members posted to organisations, resulting in some of them roaming the streets in search of places of service, is at variance with the ideals of the founding fathers of the NYSC scheme and should therefore be discouraged by all well-meaning Nigerians.
“On our part, we in the NYSC remain committed to contributing to the socio-economic development of our dear country through harnessing of the potentials of these patriotic youth, and will continue to count on the support of all and sundry in that regard.”

MOUAU Female Student Aborts Baby

THERE was pandemonium Thursday at the new female hostel in Michael Okpara University of Agriculture over a female student who aborted and dumped a foetus claim to be five Month Old at the backyard of the hostel.
The MOUAU female student is believed to have drunk a strong concoction or take a hot injection into her system that resulted in a backyard abortion of the advanced pregnancy.
liveschoolnews.com.ng grapevine learnt that the black plastic bag in which the foetus was wrapped was dumped where female students usually fetch water.
An eyewitness, Precy Nenyenwa Amadi, a student of Michael Okpara University told liveschoolnews.com.ng reporter: “As at 8.45am today at the new female hostel there was a great uproar regarding to what a female student did by aborting a baby that is claimed to be above 5months (the parts of the body have been formed). Some matured ladies said, this act was perfectly done by taking in a ‘hot injection’ into the body system to shrink the baby for smooth removal. However, this incident happened closed to my window just behind the place we fetch our water and such sacrilage must have been done at night. Its really and eye-sore and the girls were laying curses on the girl that did such thing. The boys left their hostel to the girls hostel but they were not allowed to enter and see the abominable act commited. The question is, Who could have done such an outrageous act? Can a general DNA test be performed to know the culprit? Well, that can be done in a strict Private University because the baby or the foetus rather has been buried by the school security that was around on the scene”.
Efforts to obtain more information on the matter from the vice- Chancellor of the University proved fruitless.
