I rep class of 2004/Law. All what op said appears strange to me cause non of it existed in our time. It was survival of the fittest then, it was the period when unilorin still had a minicampus at taiwo road ( den of cultists) where art and commercial students are based and the permanent site where the mostly science undergraduates stay, except for a few faculties like law. Faculty of education later joined. Minicampus which was a temporary site was the bubbling campus for organized parties and shows while the permanent site is where you find the SU's, the religious bigots and the bookworms.
Then, if you don't buy lecturers handouts just prepare yourself for carryovers. Getting accommodation was a tug of war. Bed spaces were sold in black market for as high as 20k for a room of 4 and 6k for a room of 8., not to mention those who 'colonize' with you in the night ( you wake up in the midnight and find strangers sleeping beside you!). It was extremely tough then but it was fun. Believe me you will never remain the same when you pass through unilorin in those years (1998/2004 sets). SUG was very active then. I could write a thousand page book about life in unilorin in those early days.

u also forgot d security at d gate....no id card get off frm d cab nd go bk home or u just hide nd start praying for dem not to stop ur cab

12.) After you waited for long at the park for school bus, then "professor" ojo comes to announce that no more school bus for the day, and you are having just 20naira with you.

Good memories. I can picture the face of professor Ojo. I was there last week saturday, Just to take a break from the busy life of Lagos, it felt like I travelled to the Caribbean for holiday. visiting ilorin for that short weekend is one of my pleasurable moment this year.

New constructions and development in unilorin.

98% true

I can relate with all of that except that Mr. Ojo hasnt been "honoured" with professorship when i was there. I patronize the school bus and SUG small buses like seriously...proudly unilorite; better by far far
