 Surjectivity from injectivity modulo the Jacobson radical

For a finitely generated module $V$ on the right over a semilocal ring, the displayed condition makes the induced module endomorphism on $V/VJ$ injective. This quotient is an Artinian module, so Artinian modules are co-Hopfian makes that map surjective. The remaining quotient module $V/\alpha (V)$ equals its product with $J$, and Nakayama lemma makes it zero.
