There is the need for the government to conduct a public hearing on the problems of students in the different campuses of the universities. Firstly is the attitudes of the staff to issues affecting the students . In most of the locationd, students are treated like files. Study materials are not given on time and where available it can't be complete. Remember that the materials are paid for by the students. Complaint by students on academics, transfer and simple issues of registration are not only delay but tactfully killed . Staffs of Nat Open University are operating as an extension of civil service. Presently the school portal was changed for www.nounonline.com, as a result of the changes those who have paid their school fees last semester were asked to go and paid another fees since the change in the address has wiped off all records . So uncomfortable is the new order that all outstanding credit balance in students portal running into millions were erased and forfeited to the school. You can hardly find the staff in some of the campuses on seat, at Ibadan it is easier for you to see a state Governor that meet some of the staff on their seat. At Ado ekiti, you don't complain of errors or any problems as a student ,because you are just a number ,no one is listening to you. In Lagos ,Abeokuta Ibadan cases abound of students in this time of recession loosing the balances on their portal to the school. Those who change their courses are worst hit. Nothing like a clear cut transition from the old portal to the new one. The staff at the ICT section in most campuses are small god. What is so special in transiting to a new name that involves all the magic?. Exams is approaching and those who registered last year are told to go and pay another fees as registration before getting access to their portal. I met a student crying that after payment of the full fees last semester, with his change of course, he could not access his portal and even his old course is still hanging on the portal without access to same. The officials are helpless, even only if you found them on seat in locations like Ekiti, Ibadan and some other campuses . Undercover officials can go to some of these locations and see the helplessness of the students . Problems like this will not allow the school to get the necessary recognition from the public. Government must act to protect the student from extortion, exploitation and academic oppression. The growing number of inactive matriculation number is not encouraging for the future development of the school . 3 Likes 3 Shares |

This should be on front page moderator!!! Personally, I was asked to pay for another project fee before collecting my masters degree certificate. I wonder the quack that are managing Nigeria open university website. Is there no backup for the previous website? Why can't they do importation to the new website? Also the new website looks amateur and no proper information. Management needs to do something so that stud t will not be stranded and parent will not be wasting their money. This is not how other countries operate their open university Something needs to be done asap. @olawalebabs,fynestboi,Richiez 1 Like |
