Gov Makinde gives condition to reverse Ibadan Polytechnic renaming

Seyi Makinde, the Oyo State governor, has expressed a willingness to reconsider renaming The Polytechnic, Ibadan, to Omololu Olunloyo Polytechnic if compelling arguments are presented

TheNewsGuru reports that the name change had sparked an outrage, sparking protest from alumni and students, who raised concerns about the institution’s welfare and development.

However, the governor, during the official inauguration of the governing boards for five state-owned tertiary institutions at the Executive Chamber of the Governor’s Office yesterday, acknowledged the emotional ties to the original name and emphasised that policy decisions should be based on merit rather than sentiment.

He urged stakeholders to use appropriate channels for voicing grievances and cautioned against disruptive protests.

“When you disturb others from going about their lawful activities, you need to realise that your freedom stops where theirs begins,” he stated.

Addressing the financial pressure facing the tertiary, Makinde cited increased wage obligations and limited resources.
He reaffirmed his commitment to maintaining high educational standards and ensuring graduates can compete globally.

“School is not a nursing home”- Nigerian polytechnic bans newborn babies, others from campus

The Polytechnic, Ibadan, in Oyo State, has banned pregnant female students and nursing mothers from bringing babies to classrooms and hostels, stressing that “school is not a nursing home.”

It was gathered that the polytechnic’s decision was disclosed in a morality code signed by its governing council.

The polytechnic said students hugging each other publicly on campus would be suspended for one semester.

Adewole Soladoye, the polytechnic’s spokesman, confirmed the strict morality code.

“The school is not a nursing home. Is it right to bring babies into lecture rooms? It is definitely a distraction. They are free to have babies. But they should look for a childcare facility for their babies,” he said.

The school governing council said certificates would only be awarded to students “upright” in their academic pursuit and moral conduct, urging them to shun indecent dressing.

The institution’s official memo titled; ‘THE POLYTECHNIC, IBADAN, INDECENT DRESSING/POSTURE NOTICE TO NEW AND RETURNING STUDENTS’ reads;
