students under Ubom’ and Mma
Ekpo
The story of the students of Banking
and Finance in the University of Uyo is
such a pathetic one. The department of
Banking and Finance was established in
the University of Uyo during 2000
academic session, It should by now have
turned out the best bankers and
financial analyst into the Financial
market, has instead turned out to
frustrate its well baked graduating
students.
A turn around was experienced when
the Former Head of Department Dr
Ebong Ephraim resigned his position,
this lead to the emergence of Dr Uduak
Ubom as the new Head of Department.
Upon taking over as the new Head of
Department saw the appointment of his
wife Dr. Mrs Anothonia Ubom as the
Exams officer after the successful
tenure of Mr John Udoidem, who was
very hard working.
He was so articulate and precise that as
student finish their academic activities,
Mr Udoidem would compile the result
and send for vetting and approval
without delay,with the emergence of Dr.
Mrs Anthonia Ubom Students who
graduated since 2008 are still waiting
for their result to be compile, vetted
and their names pasted for National
Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
Students with Reg No: 03, 04, 05,06,
and 07 who had since finished their
Academic requirement for graduation
are still lingering around as Dr.Mrs
Ubom has refuse to compile or send
their result for vetting and approval. A
student who pleaded anonymous while
interacting with NaijaLeaks said since
the husband is the Head of Department
that make the wife who is the exams
officer untouchable. Another student
said she is very lazy, as she will tell
students that is she is tired or that her
laptop is bad or low battery whenever
they requested to know the state of
their result. The Husband and wife have
since turned the Department to their
family organization.
Investigations by NaijaLeaks has also
revealed that some students decided to
petition Dr. Mrs Ubom the exams officer
to the University of Uyo Vice Chancellor
Prof Comfort Ekpo, after series of
petition/report and weak warning sent
by the weak VC the story of the
students of Banking and Finance has
not changed. It is now a known fact that
the University of Uyo VC Prof Comfort
Ekpo is weak and helpless as she can’t
govern the lecturers and other staffs,
this is so because she is controlled by a
set of cabal who helped her attain the
post of the University Vice Chancellor.
This frustration of Students by Ubom’s
is not only found in banking and finance
department but also in other
departments in the University a case
study is History and International
Relations dept and also in the
Engineering Faculty.
The future of graduating students have
been delayed, thwarted and even
frustrated if this “bad blood” of the
Ubom’s is not checked. Also let the
Ubom’s know that Destiny can only be
delayed not denied.
On this Note an SOS is hereby sent by
the affected Students to the University
Senate Chambers, The Vice Chancellor
of University of Uyo, Nigeria University
Commission (NUC), The Paramont Ruler
of Mkpat Enin(The Ubom’s LG of origin),
friends and colleague of Ubom’s to
please plead the cause of the effected
students by compelling the Ubom’s to
compute and release students who have
since completed their academic
activities,especially now were insecurity
and crime is on the increase in-line with
the saying that ‘an idle mind is a devil’s
workshop’.
