Re:KWARA STATE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION ILORIN SCHOOL MANAGEMENT, AN EMBLEM OF DELAY.. Feedback of the post that went viral on the net about the lateness of the recently graduated students of kwara State College of education ilorin results. The Press paid a visit to the office of the deputy provost academic Dr. Mrs. Molagun today. After series of consultations, she explained the reason behind the delayed results, she said the provost has always been unrest with the issue of results, in her statement, she made us understand that, the provost also saw the post on net and was very swift in action towards all departments delaying the computation. She said, one of the reasons behind the delay was due to the problems some students have in one course or the other and without a resolution such result cannot be computed, another issue is some students who hasn't complete their project,without the completion their results cannot be computed, lastly the GSE department was said to be the one that's delaying the results computation and without their submission of results, no result can be computed and uploaded. The deputy provost academic hereby advised and pleaded to the ex-students to please be patient, saying there's is no need for organizing and coming over to the school in masses or individually to show their grievances to the school management because by God's Grace the results uploading shall commence before or by Friday. She also disclaim the rumor going around that there wouldn't be anything like releasing of results by batches, she said for example those that haven't submitted their projects wouldn't be able to see their result because it can be collated without the project, also those that have one problem or the other, like some carry overs, missing grades etc wouldn't be able to see theirs too, for this reason the management is ready to move further with those that are ready and will be solving the rest at ease when it's problems are solved. She also enjoined the students to create a good example as a product of the College, she asked the graduates to be a role model who will make people think great of the institution, and also plead them to stop the act of condemning the management whenever a problem arise, instead the right channel and procedures should be followed and that only is the only solution to any problem NOT Painting it BLACK.
