The management of Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH) has debunked the suspension of part-time lectures.
The Deputy Registrar of the school, Mr Joe Ejiofor, dismissed the rumour in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Tuesday in Lagos.
Ejiofor told the public to disregard news that its part-time lectures have been suspended following rumours that the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic (ASUP), YABATECH Chapter, has suspended lectures.
He said that the institution’s part-time programmes were fully operational and going according to the academic calendar approved by its board.
Ejiofor clarified, “There is no iota of truth in the news flying around that the college has suspended all part-time activities.
“It is false news and should be ignored and disregarded by the general public; we are not having any issues and our part-time activities not suspended,“ he said.
The deputy registrar stressed that the YABATECH part-time programmes were in two modes comprising the weekend and the weekday mode which are being managed and supervised by the college center for continuous studies.
