WHY / HOW TO GET PASS, LOWER, UPPER AND DISTINCTION

BASICALLY FOR FRESHERS THOUGH USEFUL FOR STAYLITES BY ABIOLA. M. AJUMOKO ( PHOENIX) 

What more can be classified as academic success than excelling and having a good grade point?, Being in the region of upper and distinction make you happy whereas in achieving that, all you need, is preparation, belief and focus.

Note that, no institution is easy but you can make it easy if you are ready. Note that, the fact that you start with a bad grade doesn't mean you can't end with a good grade but what's better is that you start well, so that a little mistake in the middle will be strengthen by the points u gathered in the beginning.

Never should you disrespect anyone irrespective of levels or age for you never know who is who.. Give respect to lecturers both teaching and non teaching staffs and also give yourself some respect by making sure you do the rights and avoid the wrongs. Never joke with classes, keep notes and ask questions if you don't understand. Observe yourself, avoid what annoys you and engage in what motivates you.

Now, let's look at why some people get PASS, LOWER, UPPER and DISTINCTION...which if you can understand this scope, success in exams will be yours. Before analysing on anything, you should know that, GOD is the only way out of any examination, that's why you must

G- Get Past Questions
O- Of your
D- Departments to solve

Then why do some people get PASS? Why some get PASS is not because God hated them, as GOD don't hate anyone but because they :

P- Ply
A- Away
S- Serious
S- Situations

What we are talking here is that, this kind of people don't take anything serious, they are seen sleeping or not attending classes and not trying to know what happened in classes, they also shun tutorials, they hate studying etc but rather focus on things against why they have come to school.

Why do people get LOWER? It is not because that is where they belong to, but because they are based on :

L- Learning
O- Only
W- What
E- Everybody
R- Read / Recite

What am saying here is that, people who depend on what is common to everybody ends up getting lower. These are people that don't read wide for it is what is known to others that they get to put down in paper for examination. Why not try to be distinct and add more knowledge to what you know that's common to all. Markers get fed up seeing what's common, they sometimes classify it as redundancy.
.
Why do some get UPPER?
These people get upper not because they are brilliant than other but because they like :

U- Uncovering ( Solving)
P- Past Questions
P- Plus
E- E-learning
R- Reading

These kinds of people love to solve various past questions for different years and they don't stop there, they tend to read more online either through Google or Wikipedia..., they add more knowledge to what's being learnt in classes .
.
Why do some get DISTINCTION?
These people get distinction, not because GOD loved them but because they love :

D- Downloading
I- Intellectual
S- Subjects ( other aspects closer to a certain course)
T- To
I- Implement,
N- Navigate
C- Course - related
T- Topics
I- in
O- Over
N- Ninety Ways ( as many as you can) .

This kind of people tend to download lots of pdf intellectual packages ; they tend to read courses synonymous to their own courses ,inorder to know the source and details of a concept. It is by doing this, that they know that certain things are synonymous.... this kind of people also plan ahead before doing things, even after doing it, they still plan. Reading wide and reading ahead is a trait of this kind of people and they tend to give full details of a concept in examination.

With these analysis ,i wish you all success in your examinations. I once again welcome the freshers to MAPOLY and also other freshers to their various institutions. Also, I respect staylites, kudos to lecturers, kudos to managements... May success be the outcome of our various movements .

I am Abiola Moshood Ajumoko aka Phoenix , student of MAPOLY, HND2 Mass communication department.

OGUNPOLY IPOKIA GETS ACCREDITATION, APPROVAL TO ADMIT STUDENTS

The Ogun State Government has announced that the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) and the Joint Admissions And Matriculation Board (JAMB) have granted full approvals for the take off of academic activities at the Ogun State Polytechnic, Ipokia with immediate effect.

It wil be recalled that some students of the Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta today visited the Governor’s Office in Abeokuta to express their concerns about the delay in the commencement of their examinations and continued strike action of the lecturers which they noted had greatly undermined the completion of their various programmes at the institution.

Although a section of the students displayed some unacceptable conduct while the interaction lasted but as a responsible government, we appreciate their anxiety and therefore assured them that government was working day and night to ensure that all issues relating their concerns were resolved.

Following several inspection visits to the site of the Polytechnic, we are delighted to report that the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) has granted accreditation to the Ogun State Polytechnic, Ipokia to commence academic activities in18 programmmes

In a related development, the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has also announced the opening of its portals for prospective students to enable them register for courses at the Ogun State Polytechnic, Ipokia for the 2017/2018 Academic Session.

 This development further confirms government’s position that the interest and welfare of all students of its various institutions as well as their parents is paramount and will always be accorded a pride of place by our government. We are confident that normalcy will return to these institutions very shortly.

 For the benefit of all stakeholders, we like to state that the crisis arose in the first place from the refusal of the lecturers to call off their strike.

 Among their demands is that government must pay them full salaries including the months they did not work on account of an illegal and totally unwarranted work to rule action. For the avoidance of doubt, Government restates that no one will be paid for work not done. And no one will be allowed to hold the good people of Ogun State to ransom.

We call on our students to immediately return to their classes as we continue to work round the clock to resolve other outstanding issues.

PROTEST: Mapoly Students Declares "BLACK WEEK" In Abeokuta (See Facebook/Whatsapp Screenshot) #SaveMapoly

The #SaveMapoly Campaign, the Average Nigerian Student Dilemma and Need for Proactive Policies

Olanrewaju Oyedeji 

When I woke up and saw students thronging to the social media with their hashtags, right in my head I knew they have been frustrated and saw the Need to act. 
Nonetheless , it Is worrisome that even with the embarrassing state of Nigerian Education and what students are made to pass through, constant disagreements on policies continue to ravage our campuses. 
I have heard arguments that politicians act the way they do because they don't have their kids in Nigerian public Varsities, while I agree to some extent, I believe it still boils down to lack of basic urge for responsibility. It is funny that it is when students file out or launch a Social Media campaign that conflicts receive very fast pace of resolution. In a situation where the world is clamoring for better Educated individuals, it is funny that our own country keep diminishing in quality but improves in quantity. 
One can begin to ask questions of if the Ogun State Government made a unilateral decision in deciding to turn Mapoly to a University, in a normal setting, the staff Union should be carried along when the decisions were made. 
It seems in Nigeria we care less about the time factor, administrators sometimes I think feel students should be ready to wait even longer. 

A responsible government should not wait till students protest or take policies that would harm them. 
While it is encouraging that students now explore the Social and Digital Media, the fundamental question one needs to ask is why disagreements need to take place from time to time in Nigerian Education sector, there has been arguments that Education is too cheap in Nigeria but Education especially for a developing country like ours should be made accessible for as low as possible. 
The #SaveMapoly Campaign shows the continued dearth we have in the Education sector, the need to revamp the sector and the need to allow more funding which would be monitored from time to time. 
Sometimes it's not just about establishing a University, it's about not delaying even the future of the thousands of students policies affect, only those that take Education seriously, build a future. 
All stakeholders should join the voice to #SaveMapoly and bring everyone to listen to the plight of this beautifully made students even as they cry in pain.

MAPOLY Resumes Academic Activities - ASUP MAPOLY CHAPTER

The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic, Moshood Abiola Polytechnic Abeokuta, Chapter has decided to suspend the ongoing industrial action and resumed full academic activities on Monday 23rd October, 2017.

The Union took the decision at its congress held on Friday October 20, 2017.

It would be recalled that the Union has been on a work-to-rule since September 18 of this year, which consequently resulted in the suspension of the school’s second semester examination.

Chairman of MAPOLY ASUP, Comrade Kola Abiola, while briefing journalists after the meeting alleged that the government did not only ignore its letters and communiqués but also paid half salaries of September to staff of the institution.

He said, “60% of salaries of September is yet to be paid and the assurance for salaries of October is not guaranteed, even according to the governor”

However, the union out of trust for the new rector resolved to suspend the ‘work to rule’- an industrial action in which workers are present at work but slow down their operations.

“The Acting Rector, Mr. Ayodeji Tella made series of promises concerning welfare and the admission process as a mark of trust for the rector, we decided to suspend the work-to-rule that we have embarked on”,he said.

The union gave the management two weeks ultimatum to balance the staff salary or witness an indefinite and strongly marked industrial dispute.

Mr. Abiola said, “we have given the management two weeks ultimatum in which the balance of the 60% of last month salary should be paid and ND1 admission into either Ogun state Polytechnic, Ipokia or/and Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta should commence”.

“If you don’t admit into either of the two schools this year, that means that one academic session is lost and it has an implication with the regulatory authority” he explained.

The union stated some other conditions which include a reply to its last communiqué dated 1st October, 2017 by the Honorable Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology.

Abiola said, “At the end of the two weeks, if these conditions are not met, then the union would have no choice but to declare industrial dispute with the management of MAPOLY”.

When asked about the date for the commencement of the exam, he said it was not in the position of the union to tell when to start exam because “it is the prerogative of the management to arrange the calendar and decide when to start exam”.

Meanwhile, the governor of Ogun state, Senator Ibikunle Amosu has earlier in the day assured students of Moshood Abiola Polytechnic at a Town Hall meeting for 2018 budget, that the school may start exam on Monday.

He said, “Before I left for Abuja yesterday, I met with your new rector and I asked him about the exam. He said he was looking at Monday next week…. You may start on Monday.

Comrade Abiola refuted the governor’s claim saying “our decisions were not borne out of any intimidation by anybody. What we have done as academic staff is not to confront anybody but to ask that the basic welfare of the people you want to move to the new location of the school should be paramount”

He claimed that no lecturer is bordered about going to the newly established Ogun State Polytechnic, Ipokia but the government should put into cognizance the conduciveness of the said institution and the welfare of lecturers.

“We have asked the government not to engage in illegality. Ogun state polytechnic is not known by law. Why do you want to move staff that are employed by a legal entity to a school that does not have any legal standing” he queried”
