The Admiralty University, Ibusa, Delta State, which started well with the help of the Cypress, might be on turmoil if the University’s Management failed to suspend and postpone the Convocation slated for Saturday, November 29,2025
ZN reporters that have been following the events in the school, garnered that the graduating students have no results. due to the introduction of five versions of Manual Microsoft Excel Spreadsheets by the new Director of ICT Prof Vincent Balogun,to take charge of the Automated Portal System (SOAP) at the same time abandoning all past accumulated results on the SOAP.
It was revealed to ZN by sources that since the inception of the new management, led by Prof Christopher Bankole Ndubuisi Ogbogbo’s, that replaced the Cypress administration, things have gone wrong in the school, including the jettisoning of all the good administrative structures put in place by the Cypress.
It could be recalled that the University before now was using a school Senate approved portal called Students’ Online Academic Portal(SOAP),which has managed and implemented results since 2019/2020 academic session and has graduated three sets successfully.
As garnered by ZN, the results on SOAP were approved by the Senate from 2019/2020 academic session to first semester 2024/2025 academic session. It was revealed that the results for these academic sessions were cumulatively located in the SOAP.
During the second semester 2024/2025 academic session, Prof Vincent Balogun, introduced five versions of Manual Microsoft Excel Spreadsheets.
Due to the past results abandoned in the SOAP, results were very difficult to compile by lecturers, since there were no cumulative results; so they were forced to use the SOAP unapproved copy available to the departments to compile results.
Based on this development the final year students were contacted to submit printed results to clear their results, for those that have their copies, which gave room for students to mutilate and alter printed results.
Presently, all second semester 2024/2025 results were yet to be published.
Compilation of graduating students for 2024/2025.were done by the committee instead of the faculties.This generated errors of omission where students that were to graduate were denied graduation and vice versa.
For the graduating students for Saturday’s Convocation, results were not published for the final year students to see This is a pointer to the fact that University has hidden agenda.
