Temidayo Awoyemi, 26, this UNIBEN student has been denied graduating from school since 3 years notwithstanding meeting all academic requirements.
He had eagerly hoped to fulfil his dreams after graduation from the school’s department of chemistry. He now has spent three years now after completing his studies, not yet graduated.
The department Officials in his department and faculty say they have had no time to compile his records .
The faculty officer, Professor Anthony Imiavan, in charge of students’ records, said that the students had no case to keep him from graduating.
A spokesperson for the school said that the case was “strange”, and assured it would be resolved quickly.
After the assurance the case has not been resolved.
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.
After losing the 2012/13 school session to a six-month strike by Academic Staff Union of Universities, Temidayo hoped he would be quickly let go the next session once he provided a copy of the missing certificate.
He submitted the certificate to the chemistry department and began to wait for clearance since 2013/2014 session. Two years after, he is still waiting for the school to process his result for graduation.
The process of clearing him requires the approval of his course adviser, Wayne Omagamre, faculty officer, Professor Anthony Imiavan; the Head of Department, Professor James Okuo; and Dean, Professor Sunday Omosigho.
