Ahead of the December 13th, 2023 re-accreditation exercise of the Imo State College of Nursing Sciences, Orlu, Lawmakers of the Imo State House of Assembly have shown concern over the quota ratio.<\/p>\n
The Honorable Members at the Plenary session of Tuesday, December 5, 2023 called on the Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma to mandate the Commissioner for Digital Economy and E-Government in the State to release some laptops to the College to enhance their chances during the re-accreditation exercise.<\/p>\n
They also demanded that the Commissioner for Housing should as a matter of urgent importance carry out on-the-spot assessment on the dilapidated buildings in the College premises to ascertain immediate action to be taken to ensure a successful re-accreditation.<\/p>\n
Presenting his points, the Chief mover of the motion and member representing Ezinihitte Mbaise State Constituency, Hon. Henry Agbasonu submitted that Education is the fulcrum upon which the society thrives.<\/p>\n
Pointing out that Imo State has carved a niche in that field by excelling in all her endeavors academically.<\/p>\n
Part of the prayers of the motion further reads, “Acknowledging that\u00a0 health is wealth and that well-trained health personnels assure provision of good health facilities;<\/p>\n
“Noting that Imo state College of Nursing Sciences Orlu is a glory to Imo State considering their performance in council examinations;<\/p>\n
“Noting also that Imo State quota for admission of students into the college is minimized resulting from insufficient facilities such as well equipped ICT Centre, Library; and well built up classroom blocks and offices;<\/p>\n
“Observing that the College needs laptops and other audio and visual equipment; and restructuring of dilapidated buildings that would encourage the Nursing and Midwifery Council to increase the State quota in the forth coming re-accreditation exercise for our children\u2019s benefit”.<\/p>\n
Agbasonu continued by alerting the Lawmakers that their visit to the School paved the avenue for unearthing the main challenges facing the Imo State College of Nursing Sciences.<\/p>\n
In their respective contributions to the motion on the floor, Legislators pleaded that for the want of time, let the relevant Commissioners swing into action before the stipulated date.<\/p>\n
Again, they were of the view that scarcity of laptops and other compulsory gadgets could militate against the admission of greater number of prospective students from thousands to hundreds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
