Seventy lecturers of the University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) have resigned since Boko Haram began terrorising the North-East.

Chairman, UNIMAID chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, Dr. Dani Mamman, said this in an interview with the Punch newspaper.

Mamman said, “About 70 lecturers left, about five died and three are held hostage by Boko Haram. The admission figure of students have been dropping since insurgency started in 2012. We don’t know what will happen to the admission of students this year

“The exit of some lecturers has affected research and learning because some are specialists in their fields. Usually, such exodus affects accreditation of some programmes and courses.

“We requested the government to increase security personnel, security gadgets and construction of the 23.7 km perimeter fence. In the interim, the state governor has started building a 10.3 km perimeter fence

Lord Have Mercy!

I mean,what sort of meaningful research or academic activity can take place in a place almost entirely surrounded by a bunch of illiterate savages who believe that education is "haram"? My answer: None. I don't blame the "deserters". Self-preservation is the first law of nature. Only a man who is alive and kicking can carry out research and teach. The dead tell no tale. Corpses don't teach,or do they?

No wisdom in that "oil quest". It's like searching for a treasure in the mouth of a ferocious jackal. #Senseless.

Those who says there's oil in Borno are fooling themselves,,, no oil in Maiduguri,, no oil in Borno,,
