Unilag Student Faces 4 Semesters Rustication For Social Media Post (Read What He Posted)
A student of the University of Lagos (UNILAG), Adeyeye Olorunfemi of the Faculty of Environmental Sciences department
of Building has been rusticated for 4 semesters for criticising the
management of the institution.
It will be recalled that the authorities of the institution recently rusticated 11 executive members of the school’s Students’ Union
executives, including its president, Muhammed Olaniyan, over the April 2016 protest.
The affected students were rusticated between two and four
semesters, which took effect from the second semester of the
2015/2016 academic session.
Those serving two-semester penalty were informed to apply for
readmission at the beginning of the second semester of the
2016/2017 academic session, while those that are out for four
semesters are advised to reapply in the second semester of
2017/2018 academic session.
One of the students, Adeyeye Olorunfemi ’s was suspended for
criticising the leadership of the institution on their inability to
manage situations as “democrats”.
The student expressed his mind in his article titled, ” The Senate of
the University of Lagos; a Conglomeration of Academic Ignorami ”.
The article reads:-
Title:- The Senate of the University of Lagos; a Conglomeration of Academic Ignorami.
The University of Lagos prides itself as a cosmopolitan University
and over the years has maintained the status quo of excellence
among her peers in Nigeria and the world at large. I promise not to
make this BOMB as lengthy and circuitous as my last post on this
medium. I will also make it as lucid as possible.
I mentioned in my last article WHAT IS GREAT ABOUT THE GREAT
NIGERIA STUDENTS the jejunity of the Mission statement of the
UNILAG,Hardly had I finished the article when the whole statement
of mine started receiving fulfillment .One would call me a prophet!.
I now see the reason for the backwardness of my Nation, we
blame those at the corridor of “power” forgetting those at the
corridor of “education”; the corridor of “common sense “.I am a
discussant of History and it has made me realise that from time
immemorial, whenever there is problem in the society ,tertiary
institutions are places of solace,they are citadels of solutions.
Government would go to schools to consult undergraduates,
lecturers; professors as they posed to be the backbone of the
society. Now, Nigeria is in shambles, the economy is crumbling,
where is Dr Nduibisi Nwokoma of the Economics department?,
Buhari is still waiting for your economic model computation and
those econometrics rubbish theories you teach your students
Prof. G.L Oyekan!.., there is infrastructural decay!. Prof. Idoro
Godwin, buildings are collapsing and projects are poorly handled!.
This is not project planning class where you come to disturb
students with your unending battery of questions e.g What is
Objective? ..answer- Objective is ….Question 2- What is “is”?.
What a comedian!
Vice Chancellor sir!, you remain a first class Chemical engineering
graduate from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ife.What has
happened to the Great Ife in you!. Our power generation is
deteriorating and you are alive . The Nation’s investment of
knowledge on you to make you a scholar is a WASTE. Your first
class honours degree is the true definition of a FIASCO.
That’s by the way,the protest that led to Senate’s resolution to
dissolve the Student Union and the forceful blood covenant Oath-
taking was a peaceful one. One that started on a calm note with
the intention to end in a day only if the DSA or VC came to talk to
the students during the act. The Egocentricity of an African man
would not just allow them to come, They are PhD holders. I call them ACADEMIC IGNORAMUSES!. The irresponsibility, insensitivity and irresponsiveness to the welfare of the students of the VC and his mis MANAGEMENT have
shown that they are all misfits when it comes to parenthood.
They all stood up when the former mistake we had as president
tried to rename Unilag to Maulag because the brand UNILAG gives
them the pride they need to sleep with any girl-student and
admission-seekers effortlessly. These are the goings-on in Unilag,
let the world know!. The likes of Ogbinaka Karo were ready to tear
down the nation if the renaming was not revoked.
Now, this is our own issue; Welfarism, we can’t find them. Are
they telling me that the Name issue is greater than Welfarism. Is
the aesthetics of a building more important than the structural
stability? , If you don’t know, go ask the MD, Lekki Gardens.
My secondary school teacher once told me that during his days at
the University of Ibadan, they protested when the chicken on their
breakfast meal was reduced to 1 instead of the usual 2. For
Christ’s sake ,was it this same Nigeria? .
We never asked for all these things Bello and his cohorts
enjoyed,all we asked for was water/light and all we could get from
a sensible Senate is the threat of expulsion. Are there no “common
sense” persons in the management anymore? .We mourn late
Prof. Ayodele Awojobi freshly..
I promised not to make this too lengthy but I stand in this era for
change as I don’t want to be much too a victim of circumstances
because I have never gained anything from this system of
education. I learn everything myself just like most of us. My lecturers are too busy to teach but are very ready to threaten you
with failure. Where is Julius Faremi? .
I am ready not as Adekunle Gold but as an active citizen for any step they might want to take against me. E e ba mi ni’be.
