The lawmaker representing Ibadan Northeast Constituency 1 at the Oyo State House of Assembly, Hon Abiodun Babalola has called for the quick processing of certificates and transcripts of graduates of tertiary institutions in Oyo State.
The motion, sponsored by Hon Babalola who is the House committee Chairman on Transportation, was presented on Wednesday at plenary, also called for the activation of online applications and delivery to any locations.
The astute lawmaker noted that the process of approving and preparing statements of results, certificates and transcripts take too long in tertiary institutions in Oyo State and therefore called for proactive actions from the management of various higher institutions of learning in the State.
The lawmaker said this has led to many missed lifetime opportunities for graduates of these institutions who were often unable to meet deadlines for applications needing their certificates and transcripts.
Hon Babalola expressed regrets that the delays mounted undue pressure on graduates and was often intentional to encourage bribes before the documents are prepared.
