Senators have made us proud –NOUN Law graduates

The National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) has described a
recent amendment of its establishment Act by Senate as a major step
to the realisation of its mandate of providing open and distance
education to the Nigerian working class.

The university management said Senators have made both the
institution and their students to walk on the streets of Nigeria
with their heads high.

Last week, Senate, finalised the amendment process, to allow
NOUN graduates, particularly Law graduates to be eligible for
admission into Nigeria Law School, while others graduates could
also participate in the National Youth Service Corps scheme.

NOUN Director of Media and Publicity, Ibrahim Sheme, told our
reporter, in Abuja, yesterday, that the action of the lawmakers has
boosted the confidence of students on the institution’s
programmes.

He said: “This single action would end the fears of the students
particularly the law students of the future of their career in Law.
Also, students who are under 30 at the time of graduation could
also choose to apply to take part in the NYSC programme.”

He also added that the institution has envisaged that the cheery
news would result in more students taste for quality education,
assuring prospective students that the university has both human
and infrastructural capacity to accommodate and give them the best
of education.

NOUN equally assured the Council for Legal Education and NYSC of
their commitment to churn out students who would make them proud
through their outstanding performance in their different areas of
specialisation.
