STAFF TRAINING CENTRE STUDENTS URGED TO BE DEDICATED TO STUDIES

The newly admitted students of Staff Training Centre, Asaba have been advised to show high sense of decorum and seriousness in their studies.

     

The Director of Studies, Directorate of Establishments and Pensions, Office of the State Head of Service, Ms. E. U Ogwezzy, gave the advice at a-one day orientation programme, organised for the new students of the institution.

     

Ogwezzy enjoined them to work hard in their continuous assessment tests, term papers, seminars, as well as their semester examinations in order to obtain good grades from the institution.

     

She charged the students to be punctual and regular to their classes, write assignments, as at when due, as well as work harmonious with one another and shun rivalry and bitterness.

     

The Director recalled that many great men and women in the world started from very humble beginning, saying that they gradually moved to the top of their career through hard work, self discipline and strong determination to succeed.

     

In an address, the Permanent Secretary, Directorate of Establishments and Pensions, Dr. (Mrs) A.U Nwabueze called on the students to show greater commitment to their studies, adding that they would benefit immensely at the end of the day.

     

She commended Delta State Governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan for making human capital development part of his administration’s point agenda, saying that the initiative had affected the lives of Deltans positively.

     

Dr. Nwabueze said that the orientation programme was geared towards exposing the students to the rules and regulations of the institution, stressing that they should take the programme seriously.

     

In a remark, the Dean of Students’  Affairs, Delta State Polytechnic, Ogwashi-Uku, Mr. Eli Okwuogbo identified sexual promiscuity and cultism as two major factors militating against the academic performance of students and advised them to show greater commitment to their studies.

     

The Staff Training Centre is in affiliation with the Delta State Polytechnic, Ogwashi-Uku to run courses for the award of National Diploma Certificate.
