Ola Johnson:An EDM student told me that that long building is going to house their faculty. The present building they are using is 'borrowed' from Agric. The present Agric building is the first building in OAU and was the first Senate building. |

bellong: My students refused to graduate....That must be Prof. Ako of Geology when he was the Dean of Science. As is the tradition during convocations, deans call all the students and the programmes. But when Ako was doing this, knowing full well that nobody was graduating from the department, he made the statement. |

GboyegaD:I had a class mate who only entered a girls hostel ( moremi) once. That once sef was to create awareness for their fellowship annual program. He attended deeper life students fellowship at old buka. he is now back in ife as a lecturer in elect/ elect dept. I was in ife 01 to 06 so I did not witness the killing but I got plenty gist from roommates/senior colleagues at awo annex facing moz ( my room in part two). |

May all their souls RIP . I was fortunate to have sold the room allocated to me as a final year student in Awo. The guy that was occupying my supposed Bed space was murdered that night . The room is on the ground floor just by the stair case . I'm always thanking God for his Grace and also praying for the repose of the souls of the fallen heroes... Great Ife !!!! |

I rep OAU anyday,anytime,even though I didn't count myself lucky to be found there at first. Having experienced life in three Nigerian universities,I can boldly beat my chest and say that OAU has a way of making you struggle,but at the same time affords u d opportunity to discover yourself. The students are like,handpicked cos they are like-minded! Believe it or not,but there's something "spooky" about the school. And,its just unnatural to see a person who passes through the school that just doesn't change one way or the other. The religious-life of the school is outta dis world. That's the only skul I know of,where its fashionable to be a pastor. Right now,pastors are given more recognition than faculty presidents. Lol...sincerely,the school's awesome! 1 Like

Afam,those pics are for you unfortunately,I didn't witness the crisis.I'm there presently. I assure you that the school is in order and the present vc's tryin his best. The union hasn't been reinstated and aroism is still very much present altho there's a loss of that "professional touch" to it- the fore-fathers,having graduated. Awo boiz are trying their best,although they have been reduced to jokers who just disrupt religious programs with snide comments(which I must admit,could be hilarious attimes). I for one,am happy without the union,having met and not enjoyed its reign. I was relieved when it was scrapped and I believe students wld tell u that the school has hardly had reasons to protest for any lags on the part of the school administration. All is well! 1 Like |

I was in 400 level (mech eng) Blk 2 rm 56. I became a spiderman that morning. Came down from 2nd floor without using the stairs and headed straight for the bush behind the Awo hall football pitch. It was a morning that most of us experienced what I call "grossly tangible fear". Lest I forget after returning from the bush, some awo boys still raised a false alarm (a process popularly called "ARO" in those days). |

I still remember one of the posters of the student union concerning an event to honour them that ended with "Afrika and the rest must not die in vain, their blood must water the tree of freedom". I went home on one occasion the repeated the quotation to my dad who got confused because it is the blood of "tyrants" that waters the tree of freedom and not heros - Student union and their wrong usage of english language in those days (Tony fash - "if something is not wrong with Lamikanra; Lamikanra must be wrong with something". Tony fashayo was rusticated from year 5 medical school OAU when I was in 100 level (1995) and readmitted at my convocation 6 years later. Great Ife!!! |

Unionism in OAU is such that does not stop amazing people. Seeing unionists quoting Karl Marx, Lenin, Churchill, Amilcar Cabra, etc shows how vast they are. Election Debate in Amphitheatre can only be described as show of intellectualism. 1 Like |

What happened can be summarized this way: cultism was greatly condemn by OAU student union and students have a culture of openly dealing with cultist. punishment ranges from maximun shishi i.e maximum beating to stripping them naked and singing and making them dance to the mockery songs. OAU student union even goes to the extent of going to other schools to fight their cultist on their behalf. invariably what happened that day was a planned National cultist attack on OAU student union. i could remember the chorous of " Live and lets Live" " Give us our space". it was indeed a very sad day. God will surely judge the killers. |

Omo!, i was a jambite when the incident occcurred. It was tragic! Africa was shot in the head (from the reports) and he was rushed to the health center first before being rushed to a hospital in town. He died on the way! The following morning was very interesting. Students (including our so called aje-butter babes) formed groups, mobilized vehicles and visited all motor parks/garages in search of the cultists. Come and see action!!! The "intelligence" unit of the Student Union has already gotten the names of the cultists and where they came from(i dont know how). One of them was caught and shishi maximum was dished out to him. Even the ladies jostled to join the "shishi team". During the search for the principal 'actor', a friend of mine was picked up cos he bore the first 2 names of the cultist. And when they found the main guy nko News raced round the school like wild fire that they had caught him and his trial was to be conducted at Amphi theatre. The hall was filled (overfilled sef)to capacity. Then Lanre "Legacy" (student union president) walked in (that guy get too much action for body sef!!!). His first words were "GREATEST IFE!!!" The response from all was a resounding "GREAT!!!" Even our lecturers were there also shouting "Great" with us students. I remember so many funny incidents (fetching water at the stream behind moz, trekking to gate through road 1 when school is on strike , going for angel of chemistry lectures at 5am, eating amala at old buka, walking into Moz to toast a babe with butterflies in my stomach etc). Ife students always stand together whereever they meet in life and protect one another. The school is filled with so many memories. OAU for life. 3 Likes |

Mennnnn, suscribing seriously. Read it from page 1 to page 7. R.I.P to dose that died on that particular day. Despite that ife is 30mins drive to my hometown, i ended up schooling in Unilorin, but i really love O.A.U due to 'em efizzi n most of my peeps,aunts graduated from dia. What rily baffles me is that, those cultist might still be alive today and some might even be reading all these comments tonight. God sees una ooooo and he'll judge you. 2 Likes 1 Share |
