Fr. Madu who also reaffirmed the institution’s zero tolerance for examination malpractice, campus cultism and other vices insisted that the management is poised to re- position the institution to ensure that its graduates can effectively compete favourably in the labour market.
He declared that the era of sorting, bribery for admission purposes and other related illicit practices had ended in Imo Poly charged students and intending ones to concentrate on their studies so that they can earn their scores by merit rather than by hook and crook.
The cleric who harped that only intending students who genuinely merited admission would be admitted into the institution cautioned those involved in admission racketeering to desist and keep away from the school or be ready to face the wrath of the law if caught.
