KwaraPoly expels 45 students over exam malpractice

BY ADEKUNLE OLADUNNI, KwaraPoly

Following the conclusion of the second semester examination at the Kwara State Polytechnic (KwaraPoly), Offa-Ilorin, the management has  released names of forty-five students who have been expelled owing to gross cases of examination malpractices.

The list includes eleven (11) HND finalist preparing for camp, twenty one (21) ND finalist students planning for industrial training and 13 fresh students.

Their names and passport photograph were published on the school newspaper tagged flash news but not yet pasted at their various department.

The school management, however, gave kudos to the Director of Students’ Service (DSS) for the great work and effort made during the examination, while commending the division for been able to fish out students who indulged in examination malpractice.

The statement also read: “The expulsion of those students involved in examination malpractice, after investigations, will also serve as deterrent to others, as it will gear them to adequately prepare before exams,” noting that “the school authority has zero tolerance for exam malpractice or other related cases.”
