WHAT’S NEXT FOR GREAT IFE STUDENTS?

 

WHAT’S NEXT FOR GREAT IFE STUDENTS?

It is no longer a news that the great Ife students were not totally affected by the national ASUU strike due to division of the school system which is the CONUA (Congress University Academics) and ASUU (Academic Staff Union Of Universities part)

A good number of students especially those that falls under faculty of science have been receiving lectures and has even gone as far completing their test for the semester while some students are yet to receive any class for the semester at all.

With all this chaos going on with the academic part of the school, the struggle and the sports part of the school seems not to be lying idle also, according to some of the claims of the students. This claim started to trend on discovering the school performance at the of recent concluded sport activities at the NUGA (Nigerian University Game Association) level. While the celebration to the successful wins of the sport aspect was going on protesters who were in struggle with accepting the newly elected Vice-Chancellor professor Bamire Adebayo Simeon but want Professor R A Adedoyin occupying the post as an Ife Indigene also took over the campus automatically stopping all activities going on within the campus, as there was blocking of roads, beatings and attempted beatings to those making attempts to cover the scenario been made. Traditionalist were not left out in the exercise as different part of them keeps displaying their act for two consecutive days.

Students, student union, victims, governors, the media houses, some reputable personnel, and even the TRWASO (Traditional Religion Worshippers Association, State Of Osun) express their dissatisfaction to the protest via series of press release and social media. Stating their claims where necessary that they don’t support the actions of protesters and also their surprise at the school silence during all this act when a solid action should have been taken.

Finally getting subsided, the protesters seem to fade off into the thin air the same way they popped out of the blue.  Then the NASU and SSANU bring in their own news announcing their two weeks warning strike due to the refusal of government to meet up with their demanded news. Although the students of great Ife start to react to this news almost immediately by vacating their hall of residence within the 48 hours the news was circulated. No Students was ready to face the school with no NASU and SSANU function as this will means no water supply, no electricity of which seems to be the greatest priority of survival as a student generally.

But not for too long before commotion start to uproar among the students of Great Ife wondering what is the next thing to happen? When the school finally released a circular declaring a two weeks mid-semester break. This came in as shock for some part of great Ife students who claim their semester has not even started at all, while some claim that the break is actually very wrong to be termed a mid-semester break at the tenth week of the semester.

Expressing their fear through different post on the social media handles, the great Ife students warn themselves to prepare for two months break instead as this was the same way it started during the school lock down last year while in the middle of the semester exams.

Now the question on every great Ife students lips still remain WHAT NEXT AFTER THE SO CALLED MID-SEMESTER BREAK?

Nigeria Celebrates 58th Independence Anniversary; Nigeria Still Under Servitude.

Image
By YUSUFF Oladeji Afeez (SIR-USEFUL) Before I attempt to analyse the theme/topic of this piece, the questions we should pose in our minds are : What is Independence? Has Nigeria gotten Independence? If truly Nigeria has gotten Independence, Why is she still in servitude? According to Merriam Webster Dictionary,  Independence is "the freedom from outside control or support". Independence is also seen as the time when a country or region gains political freedom from outside control. In the process of providing a definition to the word, "Independence", I noticed a  keyword, present,  in the definitions of Independence, supplied earlier in this piece,  which is "FREEDOM". And according to me, "Freedom is knowing the right thing, and doing the right thing,  which is the only way to  liberate one's self (someone)  from slavery." Since,  We,  Nigerians have deviated from the right things, and doing what is right, we have put ourselves under/in servi...
