In the next few months, students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN, will start enjoying the comfort of washing machine.

The Vice Chancellor of the University, Prof. Benjamin Chukwuma Ozumba, who announced this at a press briefing at the Enugu Campus of the institution to mark its 54th Founders’ Day celebration as well as
his 100 days in office, said it was part of his welfare package for students.

Making reference to universities in other parts of the world, he said UNN students equally deserved to study under a conducive environment.

The Vice Chancellor stated that apart from massive renovation of hostels, his administration had restored full moral and financial support to the Students’ Union Government.

He said within the 100 days of his administration, pipe-borne water, which had been absent in the University for the past 15 years, was restored.

Ozumba equally announced that the 54th Founders’ Day lecture of the University would be presented by the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu.

While soliciting cooperation and constructive contributions from stakeholders, he further stated that “my overall agenda is to provide the University of Nigeria the leadership needed to become an academic giant and pace-setter in the quality of its scientific research, the level of its innovative teaching and the robustness of its community service among universities in the developing countries”.

“The dreams and vision of the Fathers in the motto they gave us, ‘To Restore the Dignity of Man’, are in our minds as we celebrate.

Even if Ozumba would provide the washing machines, I don't think its meant for the boys cause the way they treat girls in that school is just exceptional, so the likelihood of the machines going to the girls is huge. He should just renovate and refurbish the boys hostels cause we ain't animals-hogs living in pens, we also deserve the good things of modern education. Although last time he toured round the boys hostels to see the rots by himself, we just need action and not just sightseeing! BTW, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to the first indigenous citadel of learning in Nigeria!!!

so UNILORIN also treat theirs special? ...its high time schools in Nigeria have started treating we boys equally with girls, the feminists keep clamoring for equality with men when we (boys) are still oppressed.

Actually, that was before now.
Presently, the boys also have their own hostel.

Though some say girls are the weaker sex.
