Two First Class Graduates From Medical Laboratory Science Department in IMSU Given Mere Handshake And No Cash Reward From The Institution:

Imo State University Owerri on Thursday held a twin induction ceremony for its Medical Laboratory Science and Optometry graduates.

Medical Laboratory Science produced two first class graduates and surprisingly they only received just hand shakes and paper piece award.

For a country where winners of reality TV shows go home with millions of naira as reward for their efforts while people who made giant strides in their educational pursuit are giving a “handshake”, then we know that we are really the architect of our problem.

The two students, Mbionwu Ugochukwu and Ononuju Ugochukwu Alozie both made a cumulative CGPA of 4.62, the best ever in the department, had their expectations dashed as the institution showed once again that there is really no reward for hardwork in Nigeria as not even a cash price of as little as N5000 was given to them.

Only in Imo State University!
Only in Nigeria!!
Congrats Uzochukwu Poto Rhema Ononuju
Congrats Mbionwu Ugochukwu Kc.
