In Ogun State, several digital portal migrations have led to errors affecting students.
According to sources, the Commissioner for Education, Science & Technology previously maintained a portal called Edutam four years ago.
Learners were later migrated to OGSERA two years ago, and this year the system moved students to a new portal called DIPER.
These successive migrations have caused significant issues, including learners being placed in incorrect classes and some students being completely omitted from the registration list.
Rufai Oseni, a public commentator, has slammed Governor Dapo Abiodun over the alleged mishandling, accusing the state government of incompetence in managing critical educational processes.
