Over
460 first year students admitted for the just-concluded academic
session by the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State, has
been asked to withdraw from the institution over their inability to
meet the requirement set for students to move to the next level by the
National Universities Commission. Letters of withdrawal, THE SUMMARY
gathered, were served on the affected students by the school management
last Friday.
The
students, it was further learnt, failed to make a Grade Point of 1.5
after the session and therefore could not continue their programmmes,
going by the guideline set by NUC. Affected were students from virtually
all the faculties in the institution. The Information Officer of the
university, Mrs Lydia Legbo, when contacted, confirmed the development,
adding that the students were asked to withdraw because of 'poor
academic performance.' She stated further that the institution could not
violate the NUC's guidelines.
