CONTINOUS REACTION OVER WORST EVER RESULT AT BAYERO UNIVERSITY, KANO

Reported by ABUBAKAR ISAH SMS/10/MAC/00824

Bayero university Kano which is being seen as one of the best university not just in Nigeria but Africa at large recorded one of its worst ever result since its inception .

The 2010/2011 first semester result was being duly marked by each and every facilitator of the respective course and being assessed and released by the school management, but to my greatest surprise and dismay it seems to be one of the worst result the institution has ever recorded since its inception which was around 1970s.

Students of the institution as a result of these decided to put on all black wears to show their dismay. This happened just a day after the faculty of social and management sciences released its results. The result issue has become the most talked about in the institution which is the local community here in this context as well as being spread across the society at large. Students spread the news by informing parents, friends and well wishers about the result.

I wish to conclude that this issue of result has served as an eye opener for the serious ones to add more efforts in their studies in other to get better grades in subsequent semesters to come and hopefully the teachers would do more to ensure the success of the student and the institution as a whole

The traffic holds up cover the areas between Kabuga through Jan block first and second gate, afforestation down to Rujiyaan Zaki. This has been a problem to the users of the road, due to the jam packing of vehicles which also affect pedestrians too.

On the other hand student are also affected with late coming, both the nursery, primary, secondary and high institutions that are located within and outside the area. For this reason most of the students miss their various lectures, and at times tests, which in turn affect their academic performance in school.

          Also this leads to careless driving on the road, which has resulted to several losses of lives, due to reckless overtaking by drivers in an attempt to beat time. Pedestrians are also scared to cross or even work closes to the road. On Monday being the 21^st, 2011 the rate of hold up on the road was outrageous. On that faithful day, two vehicles had a head long collision which led to the loss of lives. Ten people loss their lives, fourteen people were seriously injured in the accident.

The situation of the road is becoming night mare to the residence of the area.

Miss Helen filled with concern said, it is really a thing of concern to any one who witness the lives lost every day on this road’’ she also called on government to intervene in the issue.

A user of the road named Nana, aged twenty complained that, she always spend hours standing beside the road before she could cross the, due to this she feel reluctant to run an errand across the road.

Mallam Garba Munir a business man age 45 said, he always reached the market very late because of the hold up and before he reached, he has missed many customers. He called on the governor of the Kano state, Engr Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso to look in to the situation and proffer solution to it.
