The Management of the Federal Polytechnic, Oko in Anambra state has denied rumours that a dead student wrote an examination and was awarded marks in the institution, describing the report as malicious, misleading and inciting.
According to the Public Relations Officer of the institution, Mr. Obini Onuchukwu, who spoke to the South East Voice, those making the alleged malicious allegations that a deceased student was awarded marks due to the irregularities in the CBT were mischievous.
Obini, who spoke on behalf of the Management, explained that after an investigation into the matter, it was discovered that a student of Science Laboratory Technology, late Uche Henry, participated in all academic work, including examinations in August 2014 but died at about 9p.m. on Sept 17.
He said that the deceased student having passed all his course work had his results released along with those of his mates, but unfortunately some staff cashed on the situation with some few students in the department to blackmail the institution.
According to him, the Federal Polytechnic Oko produced best students now, with its sophisticated electronic teaching aids and other facilities in place.
