NIJ’S TRAUMATIC TIME OF DISSOLUTION

         
Tongues have been waging as regard the willingness of changing the Nigerian Institute of Journalism Provost. In recent time, it has been made public to welcome someone that will develop the good legacy the outgoing Provost, Dr. Elizabeth Ikem has made.
However, it is pertinent to note what the Provost has said to everyone during a cross forum she had with the students “I am putting much in line to the survivability of this school, even my family has suffered the risk, none of you know what I passed through at that time begging for funds just to make sure this institute survives.
I came here with nothing, now there is something to cling-on to”. She said.
Inconsistency and excitement is what everyone that is part of the NIJ family is enveloped with. Like I will recall, what a senior colleague said, “When I was doing my programme then, it was as if things hasn’t changed from the old way of doing things”.
In this antennary, all students of the institute including the freshers are been compelled to have this kind of hatred for the provost in the name of wanting to make changes that haven’t happened for a long time of her tenure.
But now things have changed, the governing board has made a vivid decision to be in the best interest of the people they serve. Now the provost has been compelled to resign, students are all amuse at whom and what the next provost is capable of.
