The Provost of the Osun State College of Education, Ila-Orangun Prof. Isaac Oyewole in his bid to ensure the survival of this institution and save it from sudden collapse has again summoned another crucial meetings on different schedule with staff, students and Town& Gown in Ila-Orangun.
The College Provost while explaining the present situation of the college said the college is at the verge of collapsing and that there in need to rise up to its survival. In his call for support and co operation, he raised some of the problems rocking the college, varying from lack of funds, snail rate in admission process, lack of facilities, shortage in number of students and inability to conduct accreditation of both NCE and Degree programmes, among others. He lamented the embarrassing situation as shameful and unfavourable. He then urged the meeting to assist in helping to revive the college and bring it back to its feet because the college is the only economic booster of Ila-Orangun. He appealed to the meeting to be a good gospeler of the college to the outside world and desist from peddling unfounded rumour or falsehood information capable of bringing the name of the college and its management to disrepute. He threatened that whosoever caught in such act will face the wrath of law.
Reacting to this clarion call by the provost, some of these highlights were mentioned as the major problems bedeviling the college and the possible way out;
- High cost of school fee which may be reduced.
- Bad representation of the school by both staff and students in which staff and students were enjoined to be more committed and always endeavour to redeem the good name of the college.
- Hostility of tenants to students and staff which should be made more cordial and understanding.
- High cost of goods like; food and wares which should be considerably reduced
- Delay in the release of results which should be revisited and ensure prompt release of result.
- Incessant strike of staff which should be moderate and reduced to the bearest minimum, among others.
The provost applauded all the opinions raised, having done justice and satisfactorily answered all the questions posed by the contributors and he also promised not to rest on his oars until the good of the college becomes best.
