A University of Benin student has been denied graduation for three years despite meeting all academic requirements, and his lecturers and examination officials say they have been too busy to compile his records.
Temidayo Awoyemi, 26, had eagerly hoped to fulfill his dreams after graduation from the school’s department of chemistry. He has now spent three years after completing his studies, without graduation.
Officials in his department and faculty say they have had no time to process his records for the last two years.
The faculty checker, Professor Anthony Imiavan, in charge of scrutinizing students’ records, confirmed to GISTSTUDENTS that the student had no case to keep him from graduating.
A spokesperson for the school told this newspaper the case was “strange”, and assured it would be resolved quickly.
Despite that assurance, the school has yet to act on the matter more than a month after.
Like many other students of the school, Temidayo’s problem began in his final year when his department said his West African Senior Secondary School Certificate was not in its records. At least five other students in his class had the same problem.
What is your say on this?
