Cat found reading with students at Obafemi Awolowo University

It's not every day you find a cat sitting down like other students to study. This cat was photographed sitting on a bench with a book opened in between its paws in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife. While students went to Awo cafe to read, the cat joined them, took up space on an empty bench and began looking through a book to the amusement of other studying students.I guess its about time animals begin on seek for knowledge as well.

#UNICAL GIST: STUDENT CENTRE REOPENED AFTER A DECADE!!

Image may contain: 4 people, crowd and indoor
It seems the almighty has finally answered the prayers of the students as authorities of the University of Calabar, have eventually re-opened the popular Student center after ten years of putting it under lock and key.
The current SUG president, Comrade Afufu Anthony, moved the notion for the re-opening of the centre which was accepted by the School Management.
Before it was shut down, the student centre used to be the fun/busiest spot on campus.
Lord knows the type of rat civilization the fumigators will encounter while cleaning the place up.

The students, Ekeh Isidore, Kizito Onyema, Aloysius Nwokedike and John Kennedy Kalu submitted the drone as their final year project to the department of Electrical Electronics Engineering, FUTO.

However, the reason behind this project is the continuous robbery incidents on their campus.
One of these students, Kizito Onyema stated on his Facebook page that the idea was developed as a result of theft cases and security challenges they were facing on campus and in their hostel.

There's been mixed reactions about his performance. Some have said it was an immature act. While some stated it was a display of ego to show that he is a graduate.
The worried artist has however come out to state reasons he decided to appear in his NYSC uniform for the performance.
According to him, he just completed his service year to his father land and he decided to pay homage to the scheme in his own way. He also said it was his own way of encouraging young artists to pursue their dreams while still going to school.

Ill Maintained Maintenance - Omolola Afolabi

It is called female students' village and truly, the administration therein isn't far from provincial. Located at the entrance of the university, with boulevards of ornamental plants beautifying or maybe concealing the rot that goes in here too. Many students get stranded and become "homeless after concluding their first years on campus in Angola or Mozambique halls l of residence and are therefore left to find their "square-roots" {A good number of students do not even get bed spaces as freshmen}.The level at which accommodation is scarce in OAU calls for desperation and everyone scrambles for whatever space is available. As a matter of fact, even finding a rhino's tooth doesn't pose as much difficult as getting living spaces on our ivory tower.
In this desperation, OAU's female students' village is therefore flooded year in year out with prospective tenants. The crux of the matter and the real bone of contention that makes one furious is the state of the space which isn't commiserate with the exorbitant rent the spaces are given out at. The owners make quite mammoth amount of money but offer quite infinitesimal service to the tenants. When one steps into maintenance, the sight that greets one is a long winding dirt and dusty road, moving on, no visible general drainage that will curb the natural occurrence of flooding and erosion. Now, structures sprout like grasses every other day, each owner trying to outdo the other by constructing sprawling structures and by offering better facilities than the previously constructed ones. Comprador bourgeoisie and very self serving capitalists whose singular intent is maximization of profits at the expense while robbing students of their monies.

The most unpalatable experience one can have in maintenance is to come visiting when the rains are at their utmost intensity. Of course, we cant stop nature from doing its work, but we can learn to stop it from getting us stuck in muddy pools. The roads leading to this supposedly luxurious hostels are in utterly deplorable states, the roads become very swampy and waterlogged during incessant rainfalls, they are far from welcoming, maybe the message they silently convey to visitors are: "stay your houses".Walking successfully on these roads requires a pedestrian raising up trousers or long skirts, whichever case, bike-men motorists seeking alternative routes or driving with expert caution and wading gingerly though the puddle of muddiness.

Many female OAU students prefer living in the students' village because it poses less security threats than residences in town, that is outside campus. Coupled with this is the stable powers supply and its proximity to the campus area itself. It is true the university has little or no influence about policies in maintenance and its state of affairs; and the property is only leased out for a period of time but there could be the need to look into it in order to protect the interest of her students, her stakeholders. Now that the rent has been increased in all the 15{and still counting}hostels, this calls for rectitude,extirpate interest in these hostels,a balanced increase in maintenance, welfare and ultimately, improvement in the state of the roads so we can at least get deserving dividends for the rent our parents get through their toils and some of us, through personal hustles We also hope when the properties are passed on to the university and they are left to be overseen by the university management, we hope to see visible changes and better welfare packages as the mother hen has now taken over tending her own chicks,the hawks must sway.

SOMEONE KILLED HER - Says parents of #OAU student who reportedly committed suicide.

Parents of Mercy Afolaranmi, the late student of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, have faulted claims that she committed suicide.

Late Mercy, a first year student of Microbiology reportedly committed suicide by consuming rat poison mixed with battery water at her off-campus residence in Sabo area of Ile-Ife following her poor academic performance culminating in poor grade, and scoring ‘E’ in CHM101, a course reportedly dreaded by year one students in the science and technology related faculties.

But her bereaved parents have cast doubt on claims the deceased, who was sixteen-year-old when she passed on killed herself.

Rather they posited that Mercy was murdered, saying she couldn’t have committed suicide as she was a born again Christian.
