Students of an Ibadan secondary school may go an extra year without getting into tertiary institutions after their school Proprietor pulled a ‘fast’ one on them
The school owner has allegedly relocated abroad after collecting the West African School Certificate Examination and National Examinations Council (NECO) examination registration fees from the students .
Planet 3R founder Adejoke Lasisi says the school is close to her abode and shed more light on the saddening development.
According to her, ‘a dubious school owner in Ibadan has travelled out of the country after being paid WASCE and NECO exam fees by his students’.
Adejoke Lasisi, the founder of Planet 3R, lamented the development on Facebook, revealing that some parents borrowed to pay the fees only to discover that they had not registered the students for the examinations.
Adejoke added that the school owner sold his house and all his properties to fund his relocation move, ruining the students’ lives. Her Facebook post reads in part:
“Some people don’t fear God at all oooooo “Imagine collecting WAEC/NECO money from all of your students and used it to JAPA?
“An incident happened in my area recently…there’s this man that owns a school…the school has been in existence for a while now at Amuro, Egbeda LG Ibadan.
“The owner collected money for WAEC and NECO.
Some parents even went to borrow it only to find out he didn’t register the students for exam.
“I heard he sold his house, school and all properties in order to travel abroad. “He just ruined those students lives for his selfish gain, some might not be able to pay for another exam next year…”
When contacted about the name of the school and the school owner, Adejoke promised to provide them as she maintained it happened in a school close to where she resides.
She told Legit.ng: “Yes, it’s in my area here in Ibadan. Not far from my workplace. It’s a trekking distance.
They even took the matter to Agidigbo.”
Netizens condemn the school owner.
