CORRUPTION THRIVES BENEATH THE ROOF OF NATIONAL OPEN UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA

The Vice Chancellor, 

National Open University,

V/Island Study Center,

Lagos State.

ATTN: Prof Abdallah Uba Adamu

Dear Sir,

CORRUPTION THRIVES BENEATH NOUN ROOF AND STUDENTS DESTINIES ARE BEING DESTROYED BY SOME NOUN STAFF AT V/ ISLAND STUDY CENTER

Compliments of the season to you. May Allah in His infinite mercy grant unto you and all the muslim faithful blessings, peace and joy.

As a good citizen of Nigeria who has the plight of the great Nigerian students at heart, I hereby write to bring to your notice the following anomalies going on at the National Open University, V/Island study center, Lagos:

1. Did you know that NOUN students are being failed or being made to carry over courses that they duly registered and sat for due to unreleased results and students are left with no other choice than to re-register and rewrite the exam yet no explanation is given despite series of complaints made via written letters submitted through the office of the secretary? 

(*NB: I have evidence to back this claim up).

2. Did you know that wrong questions and answers that completely contradict the course outline are being set as Tutor Mark Assignment (TMA) Questions?

3. Did you know that most final year students in the Faculty of Science at the V/Island Study center have been failed on project work with the claim that they copied other people's past thesis/ project. I stand to challenge and correct this erroneous assertion because I know few of the affected students who duly carried out their project practicals and wrote their reports by themselves. Permit me to say that It is a standard practice to reference other scholars' work in literature reviews that shouldn't be mistaken for copy and paste.

4. Did you know that Project Supervisors in this same V/Island study center now mandate final year students to pay a non-negotiable APPRECIATION MONEY which runs in Tens of Thousands (Naira) as a condition or prerequisites for a duly signed certification page of their project? 

*NB: I have evidence to prove the veracity of this claim. Mail and Text messages that confirm this illegal transaction between one of your  Lecturers and her students.

In light of the aforementioned, I hereby pray thee to use your good offices to investigate this evil and corrupt practices that are about to bring your esteemed citadel of learning to disrepute under your administration.

Thanks for your time.

Barka da Sallah.
