AEI moves to end exam malpractices, encourages outstanding pupils
The Academy for Excellence Initiative (AEI) has said its yearly Scholars Award was aimed at encouraging outstanding students and end examination malpractice.
The Project Coordinator of AEI, Lagos District 1, Prince Adesegu Ogungbayi, said this at the pre-qualification assessment program organised for some pupils on Wednesday.
The assessment held simultaneously in Racy and study College, Idimu; Elias College, Ilepo Oke Odo; Jelly-lass College, Agege; Royal Crown in Ifako and Professional Place college in Ojokoro.
He explained that pupils who qualified for the examination have distinguished themselves among their peers academically.
He said, “They (pupils) are all here because they have been working hard. Many schools pupils are not here because they hate hard work, thereby leading into examination malpractices.
“Our NonGovernmental Organisation is only trying to give back to the same society that evolve us in order to eliminate moral decadence that is rocking many schools today, leading to examination malpractices and global corruption we are witnessing here and there.”
He urged participants in the assessment to put in their best and ensure they kept improving on their academic prowess.
He commended efforts of proprietirs and teachers in ensuring proper upgringing of pupils, adding that they deserved to be supported.
He said, “My final message to the Proprietors, Directors, Principals and Teachers, our NGO major role is to perform the missing academic role in the life of youth in Nigeria and add value to your sincere efforts. To this end, our NGO is humanly ready to continue to support you all in ensuring academic excellence yearly.
“The Proprietors built their schools on the quest to evolve excellent leaders of tomorrow. Also, the Principals are key factors in ensuring academic excellence here seated. The teachers are the chief molders of excellent personalities in this hall.”
